Saiyuki: Check Mate (Saiyuki Fan-fiction)

Chapter 2

((Trance))

A bold and outrageous laughter echoed throughout the corridors, making it impossible to tell which direction it came from. I glanced at a really tall door and felt the need to open it, but I was too short to reach the door knob. I took a quick glance at my body and realized that my spirit was in the body of my younger self.  After long moments of trying to reach the door knob, I finally managed to reach it and timidly pulled it open. My eyes decided to freely roam around the room and I saw a little girl with demonic ears eating the skin off of a grown man and satanically drinking his blood. Her purple hair was stained red from the blood splatter. I gasped in my hands not trying to make a sound, but that didn't work out so well. She stopped dead in her tracks and sharply looked at me. I was stunned at her power and strength; I could feel her wavelength draining me by the second. "Seichi? What are you doing in here?" She asked with a blank stare. I was speechless. I didn't know who she was. I was afraid she was going to eat me! "Speak!" She hissed. "N-nothing! Just leaving!" I made a complete 180 degree turn and went to close the door behind me, but before I could completely shut the door, she yelled at me to halt. "Seichi! Don't leave me here! Help me! Set me free!" She ran towards me but the door was stopping her from touching me. As I looked her in the face, I couldn't tell what she was... Or who she had become. "Who even are you?" I asked, disgustedly. "Huh? W-w-what do you mean? I can't believe you! You're... So rude!" She yelled. At this point she was really pissed off, and she began clawing at the door. "Why are you so mean to me?! Can't you see that--"

((Present Time))

Hakkai was strongly shaking me back into reality. "Seichi! What is going on?!" I couldn't see anything and my body felt like it had been crushed by 100 boulders. "This house... The demons, we have to..." I felt demons surround all of us. They were buffer than the ones we normally encountered. "Ahh, Seichi! I've heard about you!" Greeted a short demon. "You're prettier than I thought you'd be." The demon smiled and leaned against his cane. I shoved Hakkai to the side and got up on my own. "Who the hell are you?" I asked in a bold tone. "Calm down! Let's not get too hasty!" "ANSWER the goddamn question." I could feel myself slowly slipping away again. It was like someone else was using my body and all I could do was watch. "Hmm... Seems like you misunderstood. I said CALM. DOWN." I rushed over to the demon and grabbed him by his collar. "If you don't answer my goddamn question, I swear, I'll--" The mob of demons started to moan and groan in anger. "You'll what? Mash my face in?Kill me? I'd like to see you... Try!" I shoved him off and he instantly grew 30 feet taller, nearly bursting the living room roof off. I slowly started clapping with sarcasm. "Wow Bakura! You should join the Circus!! Bakura, the little growing turd!" He crushed his cane and threw the chunks to the side. "You're not Seichi..." I stopped clapping and shifted my hands to my hips. "Correct! What do you want...? A cookie???" I watched the sweat slide down his chin. "But how? You're so strong all of a sudden..." "Silence, little man!" I interrupted. "I could kill all of you raisins in here, right now if I wanted to! So don't fuck with us!" I could feel Goku's curious stare stabbing at my back. "Seichi, what are you...?" "Can it, Goku. I can handle this, I promise." The demons laughed at how confident I came across as. "Well! What do you say then, Bakura? A one on one battle! Me and you! Right here, right now!" At this point, I felt like my skin was burning, now; whatever had possessed me was tearing me apart. The power it beheld was too strong for me, and the effect of the barrier wasn't helping at all. He pretended to ponder over the matter and agreed. "This seems all fine and dandy," I said, "But your little zombie minions have to leave the Sanzo Party alone during the battle." Bakura sighed irritatedly. "Fine. But be warned. DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE ME!" He yelled while charging at me head on. "Wow. I guess all demons really are stupid! You all do the same atrocious moves OVER and OVER again!" I yelled while easily dodging his attack. "Hey!" Interrupted Gojyo. "I take offense to that!" I ignored Gojyo's idiotic comment and dodged the punch he threw at me. "You might be fast, but I'm faster!" Yelled Bakura while throwing multiple punches in my direction, but I easily evaded them all. "I'm getting tired of this." As he threw his last punch, I grabbed his wrist and pulled him close. "Loser." I lightly whispered in his ear, while squeezing his neck so hard that blood started spewing out of the areas where my nails were. It didn't seem to affect him, so I called upon Ariel, my thin, slick sword and lunged it at his stomach multiple times, but he kept dodging them. "Alright, twinkle toes... Show me what you're REALLY working with." I changed up my swiping patterns and aimed at his legs this time, slicing  them both 3 times;  they were sliced clean off and he could no longer walk. Bakura fell completely on his back and let out a huge weep. "Heh, pathetic." I didn't give him a chance to speak and quickly executed him by slicing his head apart from his torso. "Tch." I began wiping the blood off of my face and cleaned off my sword. "Wow, that was totally awesome!" Cheered Goku. "Hrk!" I was instantly weekend and fell to my knees. "Seichi!" Yelled Gojyo. "When are you gonna stop scaring us like this?" I was quickly greeted with darkness and everything they were saying to me was instantly bleeped out.
