“Watch it, Monkey.” Gojyo said, trying to carry a set of boxes to the other side of the storage room so they could clean the area they had been in. Why the hell was he even doing this for Sanzo? Surely, the temple had monks to do this sort of thing.
“Maybe you should walk faster, cockroach.” Goku swatted at him with a broom.
“Don't start with that again. Remember last time? We broke that vase and ended up with demonic weapons?”
“Yeah, but they're cool so it's good.” Goku shrugged.
He couldn't argue that. “Break time.” Gojyo dug for his cigarettes.
“Uh-uh. You just had a break. If we don't get more done, Sanzo is going to get so mad so move it.” Goku nudged Gojyo with the broom.
Gojyo's eyes narrowed. “I'm gonna shove that thing somewhere if you keep poking me with it.”
“Like to see you try.” Goku swatted him for a third time.
“Oh, it's on.” Gojyo tried to snatch Goku's broom. Failing that, Gojyo got his mop. Wood clattered on wood as they fenced with broom and mop.
“Gotcha.” Gojyo said, pinning Goku back.
“Nuh-uh.” The young man pushed back, enthusiastically whirling Gojyo around. The storage room door creaked as Gojyo hit it then groaned then died, spilling them out into the hall.
“Ugh, get off me. You stink!” Goku pushed at Gojyo.
“We've been working all day. Of course, I stink.” Gojyo rolled to his knees. “Hell, we screwed up. Think Sanzo will notice?”
“Ask him yourself.” Goku nodded over Gojyo's shoulder.
The monk stood at the end of the hall. Seeing the fury in Sanzo's eyes, Gojyo cringed. “Uh, oops?”
