One of the Original Short Scenarios at Nitro

Journey
A short drama -type scenario for the recording of Saiyuki vocal album. Hakkai and Gojyo.

Brnbnbnbnnbn. The sound of Jeep’s engine.
Gojyo and Hakkai relax inside Jeep, stopped on the outskirts of town.

Gojyo: Hey, what time is it?
Hakkai: 1:30. . . . . . . My those two are late.
Gojyo: Sheesh. And just who was it who said “We’re leaving at 1 so assemble at the outskirts. If you’re late I’ll kill you.” (<- mimicking Sanzo’s voice)
Hakkai: I wonder if something happened.
Gojyo: If something happened, those two can take care of themselves.
Hakkai: Well, that is true.

Pi-hyorororo. A bird flies by overhead.
Calm atmosphere.

Gojyo: (yawns) . . . . . . . . . . . . Maybe they won’t show.
Hakkai: If they don’t, I wonder what we should do.
Gojyo: If they don’t show? Let’s see. . . . . . Well, there’ll be no reason to keep traveling. Maybe I’ll just settle down around here?
Hakkai: You won’t return to the town we were in before?
Gojyo: Nah, that’s a pain. I don’t have any attachments there or nothing
Hakkai: There is that.
Gojyo: What would you do?
Hakkai: Me? Hmm . . . . . .In any case, I’d like to continue on to our destination; I want to taste the feeling of completing this excursion, but
Gojyo: But?
Hakkai: I suppose that’s impossible as well.
Gojyo: How come?
Hakkai: If Sanzo doesn’t come back, we won’t have the Gold Card either.
Gojyo: Practical, ain’t you.
Hakkai: Perhaps I’ll go to Aviva computer school and get my certification. . .
Gojyo: . . . . . . Really practical, ain’t you.

As Gojyo plays with his lighter, flicking it on and off.

Gojyo: . . . . . . . . . Hey. (lights a cigarette)
Hakkai: Yes?
Gojyo: (takes a drag, blows it out) . . . Nah, nevermind. It’s nothing.
Hakkai: Really.
Gojyo: Yeah.
Hakkai: Alright, then I won’t ask.
Gojyo: Yeah.
Hakkai: . . . the reason you’re on a journey like this, things like that.
Gojyo: . . . . . . (grinning) Like, now of all times?
Hakkai: (smiling) Like, now of all times.
Gojyo: No plans, just plain ol’ living ain’t bad either
Hakkai: No, it isn’t
Gojyo: (notices) -----Ah. Speak of the devil. The idiot and the sourpuss combination’re headed this way.
Hakkai: Ahahaha, Gojyo, you shouldn’t say such true things.
Gojyo: Oh, they’re running!
Hakkai: It looks like today will be fun, too
Gojyo: (to the distance) Heey, you’re late! We’re gonna leave you behind!!

*The following is spoken as though an adlibbed conversation between the 4, and fades out

Goku: (runs up panting) Sorry, sorry!
Gojyo: You made a mess of something again, didn’t you stupid monkey
Goku: I didn’t!! There were all sorts of troubles!
Hakkai: Ahaha, your clothes are a mess. You must have had a hard time of things.
Sanzo: Let’s go. Hakkai, drive.
Gojyo: What’s with that attitude? You’re the one who was late!
. . . . . . . . . . . (Fade Out)
END.
============
This is a [Hakkai and Gojyo] scenario written for a vocal album’s mini drama. A Hakkai-centric drama will be recorded in place of Hakkai singing on the vocal album, so the request for this scenario came in. Though, these two were the album’s first bullet [track?] . . . Conversations between these two are extremely easy to write, but are conversely difficult (laughs). They’ve already known each other for a long time, so they don’t really say unnecessary things. There is no support. So instead I said ‘so what’ and decided on this “nothing” story.

Sorry if this has already been posted. winged_sandals linked me to cougarfang's translation of Monologue, so I won't post that again.
