The silver colored sunrays were easily piercing the lazy grey clouds. A few raindrops could still be seen covering the thin leafs and flower petals .

Nothing known could be seen surrounding or covering the hills.

No river , no house no civilization , only a slender silhouette with long auburn hair , showing an amazing beauty.

,, I must find a peaceful where I can clear my thoughts…" said Hao , as if he was whispering something to the wind.

The shaman continued his way down the hill. Eventually , he found a lonely tree ,,looking" towards Dobie Village. Everything could be seen from there, but nobody could see the isolated tree.

,, Perfect! '' said Hao with a hint of enthusiasm in his tone while heading towards the tree.

Hao sat next to the tree and closed his eyes.

,, How should I destroy humanity ? … What if some weak shamans are going to stay in my way or try to stop me ? …Ch! I'll destroy all of them ! … but , what if Yoh and his friends will step in ? … Yoh… " thought the powerful shaman.

Suddenly , Hao's attention got caught by some leafs that were falling from the tree. The king looked up to see what was the source of the noise , but was surpride to see his twin brother hanging upside-down wearing that stupid smile of his that fit him too well.

,, Yoh ?" said the older boy a little confused.

,, Uh, hi Hao !" said the younger brother with enthusiasm.

,, What are you doing here ? " asked Hao curious .

,, I could ask you the same thing " said Yoh playfully .

,, Hmph ! I was just looking for a peaceful place , that's all…" said the long haired boy , a little annoyed.

,, Really ? Me too… Maybe we aren't that different after all …" whispered Yoh loud enough for Hao to hear.

A few moments of silence passed and Yoh started the conversation.

,, Why don't you come up here so we could continue the little chat ? " said Yoh pointing to the branch he was sitting on .

,, Hn… All right ! " said Hao.

After one high jump Hao was sitting on the thick branch.

Yoh seemed to be surprised at first , but Hao was the Shaman King after all .

The silence continued until Yoh asked Hao :

,, So Hao … do you still want to destroy humanity ? "

,, Hm ? Of course ! " answered Hao simply.

,, Hao , what are you thinking about ? " asked Yoh trying to spice up the conversation a bit.

,, My plans and stuff … what are you thinking about , Yoh ? asked Hao looking in his brother's eyes .

,, About you … " said Yoh .

Hao could feel his cheeks getting redder and his heart beating faster.

,,And how to stop you from destroying the whole human race . " continued Yoh.

Hao felt relieved , but disappointed in the same time.

,, And how do you plan to do that ? " said the older twin sarcastically .

,, Well , I've got only 2 choices . The first one would be to kill you … ". Hao started laughing ,, Yes , indeed , I would like to see that too ! "

,, And the second one would be to convince you to forget the idea of destroying humanity . " finished Yoh .

,, And how would you like to do that ? " asked Hao curiously .
