Chapter 1: Arrival

Ever since the Shaman Tournament ended, Ren started to stay with Yoh and Anna for a while. Although he didn't enjoy it, it was the least he can do for the time being. Horohoro and Ryu stayed too, for more chores and training.

"Yoh! Get moving!" Anna ordered Yoh loudly.

"Yes, Anna…."Yoh replied.

"You! " Anna shouted pointing at Horohoro.

"Y-yes…."Horohoro stammered.

"Clean the house and do the laundry!" She ordered.

"You two have training after so get moving!" She reminded.

"Yes…Anna…." They groaned.

"And you…"She glared at Ryu.

"Y-yes Miss Anna?" He stammered.

"Prepare dinner! We have a guest tonight!" She shouted.

"I am on my way Miss Anna!" Ryu replied running to the kitchen.

And Anna was her usual self, nothing special. But then after she said to Ryu that there was a guest tonight, Ren started to wonder:

What guest? I thought Anna never invited people to the inn…or maybe…. Ren thought.

DING DONG!

"REN! GET THE DOOR!" Anna shouted from afar.

"Stupid Anna...…"Ren mumbled as he got the door.

And to his surprise, there were two girls. One had black straight hair, and one had her hair tied.

"Umm uh….Hello….um…m-m-my name is Rei Kyoyama...a-and I'm no….we're looking for Anna….."She stammered.

"Um….She'll be here for a while…uh by the way the name is Tao Ren and Anna—"

WHAT!?!??!!? DID SHE SAY KYOYAMA???! IS SHE A SISTER OF ANNA OR SOMETHING??!! Ren shouted in his mind.

"HEY! WAKE UP! ARE YOU GOING TO LET US IN OR WHAT!??!?" A voice shouted.

Then he went beck to my senses. He was certain it was not Rei but the other girl beside her.

"Oh yeah sure come in…".He replied. And I thought she was the sister….

"About time…." She mumbled.

"Michelle….can you please just try to be patient…" Rei asked.

"Yeah Michelle! Try to be patient"! Ren agreed as he stuck his tongue out secretly.

But before she could reply, Anna came in.

"Oh…Hello Rei…"Anna greeted.

"Hi Anna long time no see"…She replied softly.

"So, Anna you brought some of your friends to stay huh?" Michelle asked as she glared at Ren and saw him stick his tongue.

Michelle's eyes narrowed.

"Why you little..!!" She shouted as she prepared to punch him.

Then Rei interrupted her.

"Michelle...Don't punch him…..please I don't want you to cause trouble in the inn…."Rei said.

"Rei….Stop acting like he's your boyfriend." Michelle whined.

Rei blushed.

I"'m not…."She replied as she lowered her head.

BOYFRIEND!?!?!? WHAT THE #$& IS SHE TALKING ABOUT! Ren screamed in his mind.
