Title: Rewriting the future

Disclaimer: I swore I don't own Shaman king

Author's Note: I'm having a weird author's block on my other story Project Makeover; I'm still lacking a few pages before I could finally post it so please bear with me. For complete information on my updates please see my profile. This has been toying in my mind for quiet some time so I finally decided to write it down. Hope you'll love this as much as I do.

It's my first time using Hana as one of my main characters but I do hope that I can do it. By the way the setting of this story is after the last chapter of the manga. After Yoh and Anna came back after seven years.

More or less this would be a five shot fic.

"There are some things you can never get back, no matter how much effort you put in. And there some feelings of despair that you can never shake off"

-Ciel Phantomhive (Kuroshitsuji)

Hana peered from the door; he let his eyes roam to the people at their living room. They are happily chitchatting and swapping stories. His parents, even the thought was so foreign to him. Why wouldn't it when all his life he believed that Tamao was his mother- period. It is just recently that he learned that he has real parents and Tamao was just a guardian. He didn't know how to cope with this situation, he had mixed feelings on this issue; anger, resentment, frustration, disbelief, those are only tip of the iceberg on what he truly feels. It's all like an image in a dream, but there would be no one there to wake him up. He watched as his father laughed at something that Horo-horo said while his mother's face seems impassive as ever.

His father's eyes caught him peeking at the door and smiled at him, his mother also looked at him but he can't read her eyes; he suddenly felt conscious and ran to his room.

Yoh sighed as he watch Hana run like a deer caught in the headlights and helplessly looked at Anna who just shrugged but there is a crack in her perfect-looking facade, he knew that feeling too well. How can he not when that is how he felt at the moment?

~majrocks~

Hana mopped on his room, his knees up to his chest staring at nothingness. How can you expect a seven year old to grasp at all these things and move on as if nothing happened? He remembered the first time that Tamao admitted the truth to him, he yelled at her; hated her and didn't speak to her for a week until she came up to his room and had a long talk with him. She was crying as she explained everything but what touched him is when she said, "It doesn't matter that I'm not the one who carried you in my tummy for nine months... even if I'm not your real mother that doesn't mean that I can't love you like one." After he heard that he threw his arms to her and forgiven her. How can he not when all his life she didn't do anything but love him unselfishly. But Tamao and his parents' case were different; they left him more like abandoned to say the least. He can't understand why there is something that is more important than taking care of your own child. Didn't they say that children are the most important person in their parent's lives? On his parents, obviously he isn't. 7 years with no letter, email, call or even text to check if he's still alive and then out of nowhere they would appear as if nothing happened. What in the world do they think of him? A pet? A thing that doesn't need love and affection?

Suddenly he remembered all the times that he silently cried because he saw a father playing with his son on the park or giving him a piggy back ride on the way to school. How he wished it was him that has a normal family. He had been bullied at school because of his family's setup. They made fun of him, his family, his ability... he couldn't count the times he wished he had a different life... to have parents who took care of him since birth.

Hana was stomping as he entered their house. His hair was a mess, his clothes were tattered and dirty, his nose was bleeding because he had a fight with some boys at school who teased him again. Normally he would just ignore them but they said something that totally irked him.

*flashback*

Hana sighed as he approached the school's gate and saw his male classmates were huddled near it.

They would tease him again for sure.

He was right though because when he passed by them they started to tease and call him names. He just walked on as if nothing happened but then Takeshi said, "I've heard that you're parents are back, is that why you're acting high and mighty ne Hana? I'll bet it's just a matter of time before they leave again and have another child instead because they don't love you" he then laughed

"You're lying!" he hissed.

"If they really love you why would they leave you in the first place? Maybe you're just an accident that's why they don't love-" Takeshi didn't have time to continue what he was saying because Hana slugged him on the jaw and started the fight.

*end of flashback*

Yoh saw his son entering the house and smiled at him but his smile faded when he saw his face, "Hey what happened?" he worriedly run to his side but Hana just shrugged then threw his bag at the floor.

Anna was entering the living room to watch her soaps when she saw Hana and almost dropped the biscuits that she's carrying, "Yoh get a wet washcloth immediately!"

Yoh hastily complied; Anna then hugged her son asking, "What happened? Who did that to you?"

Hana was almost touched at the concern and worry that he heard on his mother's voice.

"I-It's nothing" he lied.

Anna made him face her and narrowed her eyes at him, "Stop lying! Who did that to you?" her voice cracked for a second.

Before Hana could reply Yoh came back with a wet washcloth and Anna grabbed that from him and started to wipe the grime off his face.

"Hana, tell me who did that to you" Yoh cooed his son. He swore his heart skipped at beat when he saw how he looked earlier.

"I-" Hana was interrupted when the phone rang

"I'll get it" volunteered Yoh.

After cleaning his face, Anna hugged her son again. She was running her hands through his hair and was rocking him. Hana let the tears that he fought hard to fall as he felt for the first time the hug of his real mother.

Yoh came back after a few minutes, his face was sad, "Anna something came up. We need to go"

Hana felt his mother stiffen for a moment before answering, "Okay"

Hana's heart raced faster, 'Where are they going? How long will they be gone this time? A week? 7 years? Forever? Hana let his hands balled into fists as Anna let go of him and told him that Tamao would be home soon and wait for her.

"Am I really nothing to both of you?" Hana said

Both Yoh and Anna halted for a moment to look at him.

"What are you saying Hana?" asked Yoh as he tried to touch his son but he flinched.

"Can't you even for just once think of me? I'm your son! I'm not a piece of furniture in this house!" he yelled, tears streaming down his face.

"Hana, you don't understand-"

"What I don't understand is why you two can't stay put and love me like a normal parent would to his son!"

"..." Yoh was speechless as he watched his son cry and beg for them to stay. How would he make him understand that what they're doing is for him? How would he erase the despair that he saw in those olive eyes?

"Widen your understanding, were doing it all for you" was all Anna said as she urged her husband to leave.

"Understanding? You two left for 7 years aren't that enough? I hate it when you make excuses when you could just say you don't love me and that you are just forced to come back here!" his chest was heaving as he voiced out the words he longed to say.

"Hana," called Yoh, "It's not that we don't love you... but we just have a duty to do... don't worry after this we'll go out and make it up"

"I won't count on it" Hana replied sarcastically, "You two have no right to be parents. I hate you! I wish I wasn't your son. I wish Tamao was my real mom!"

"I also wish you weren't my son" Anna said coldly, "I don't want a selfish bastard for a son"

"Anna," Yoh touched his wife's elbow but she flinched and walked out of the door. Only he knows how hurt Anna was; he wanted to comfort her like he normally do when she would cry out at night missing Hana but he also has a son who wanted his parent's attention.

"Hana-" he was about to explain but the look on Hana's face made him stop.

He looked disappointed, angry, betrayed, in those eyes he saw himself as a child. How heart breaking it is to watch his own father go off to Kami knows where.

He didn't even say a word as he watches him run to his own room and slammed the door.

A tear rolled down his cheek, when he was young he promised himself that he would never be like his father. He'll give his son all the things that he didn't have, he wouldn't let him experience the pain that he had undergone but... he guessed he had failed.

'Sometimes you really become what you hate the most'

~majrocks~

Hana sat at the farthest corner of his room, his knees up to his chest and buried his face on it. In his ears he could still hear their hurtful voices

"It's just a matter of time before they leave again and have another child instead because the don't love you"

"Maybe you are just an accident that's why they don't love-"

"I also wish you weren't my son"

"I don't want a selfish bastard for a son"

Tears continue to stream down his face, "It's their entire fault..."

~majrocks~

Hana didn't notice he had fallen asleep until he felt himself waking up by a faint sound on his room.

He slowly yawned, and then something caught eyes, on the table lays the psp that his uncle Manta has given him last year as a birthday gift and it was turn on.

His brows furrowed, he didn't remember playing with it before falling asleep. 'That was weird' he thought but just shrugged, maybe he forgot to turn it off.

He went to the table and was about to turn it off when he saw a strange application on it.

A brown message box appeared on the screen: Do you want to go back in time? Yes No

He raised his eyebrow, "Is this a new game? I know all the games here and it's the first time that I've seen this... maybe uncle Manta downloaded a new one"

'But... he had been here last night and I remember playing with this before going to school and I haven't seen this game'

He whacked his brain for a good explanation for this, "Maybe... maybe otousan- no way! They're so busy and didn't care about me, why would they waste their precious time downloading a game for me?' anger enveloped his body as he remembered his parents, "Maybe it was Ryu or Tamao. That's it! Maybe they are the one who downloaded the game!"

Curious, he picked on yes; the message box disappeared and on the screen four small video clips appeared and to his surprise they showed four of the things that happened earlier: him playing the psp, him eating breakfast, him on the gate of the school, and him arguing with his parents.

Shock was an understatement to say how Hana felt at the moment. "What kind of game is this?"

Nervously he chose the third clip and then another pop up box appeared: The moment your wish comes true is the time you'll go back to the present. Continue? Yes No

He chose Yes then a bright light emerged from the device after a few seconds the light suddenly returned to normal and a horrified Hana saw his surroundings slowly change.

From his room it is slowly shifting into a familiar place. He can't believe it, his school!

He saw the children hurrying off to leave the premises then he saw - himself walking towards the gate. It's as if someone has taped the events earlier and he was now watching it.

He saw himself sigh as he looked at the school gates where his male classmates were hanging.

Hana hid behind some bushes as he watch himself pass by and saw Takeshi spoke, "I've heard that your parents are back, is that why you're acting high and mighty ne Hana? I bet it's just a matter of time before they leave again and have another child instead because they don't love you" he then laughed.

He saw himself clenching his fists and hissed, "You're lying!"

"If they really love you, why would they leave you at the first place..."

Hana, under the bushes acted fast,

"... they don't love-" before his fist came in contact with Takeshi's face Hana hold the boy's hand.

The look of surprise was evident on the other Hana's face as he saw his carbon copy holding his hand, preventing him from slugging the boy.

Even his classmates were dumbfounded. Hana then dragged his other self as far from the crowd as possible then he felt his body being dragged by the bright light and his surroundings changing back into his room.

Hana couldn't believe it, 'Did he just-? Did he really just go back in time? Time travelled? It all seemed real though...'

His eyes went back to the psp once again and saw that there is a part there for the date settings and that the date indicated on the clips is today.

Something clicked on Hana, if it's true that he can travel back in time then maybe... maybe he can still save his future or present at this time.

"If this is year 2007 then 7 years earlier is year 2000" he adjusted the date excitedly, a glimmer of hope in those olive eyes.

After adjusting the date he saw again the same familiar message box saying: Do you want to go back in time? Yes No

He chose yes, a smirk tugging on his lips. Yes he would go back in time to save the future. He'll change it for the better. He would have his family by hook or by crook.

Whoa! One chapter done! I'm really sorry if my updates are so slow because these past few months. I've been very very busy with our SSD but since the semester is about to end my updates would be faster and I'll try my best to update if not every week, maybe every two weeks the latest for my multichaptered fics. Please don't forget to read and review. Constructive criticisms are also welcomed.

By the way ch. 3 of Project Makeover would be posted in a week.

Thanks and love lots,

Majrocks

I'm feeling giddy and happy today here is the preview of chapter 2:

His eyes grew big as he come face to face with the person he just hated a few hours ago.

He was different... that face- he'd only seen it on the pictures that Tamao had shown him when they were young.

"Otousan..." he breathed.

Yoh smiled at the boy, he seemed... familiar then he glared at Redseb, "Is he your new friend?"

Redseb shakes his head no, "Nope. He said he was your relative or something"

"A relative? Hey young man what's your name?" Yoh's smile widen as he kneeled and made his face levelled with the boy.

Hana seemed to have lost his tongue; he was shaking... so this person is...

"Are you okay?"

He nervously nodded; "M-My name is-is Ha-" he was cut off when a figure appeared besides Yoh carrying a small bundle in her arms.

"What's this about?" came her voice
