Amigirl: I just wanted to say something to my readers before I start this fanfic. I do not own Shaman King or any of its characters (I wish I did though, Hao is so hot!), I only own Dizzy. I am not going to disclaim anymore in this story because it takes up space and I like to write so yeah. Here's the summary of the story:

HaoXOC Rated M for later Chapters 500 years ago Hao fell in love with a witch. He told his friend, who was jealous of Hao and the withc is friend told the village elder and had the witch killed. Hao turned himself and his friend into fire demons/vampires, promising his friend that only one of them would live after the treachery. Hao also made a deal with the gods in exchange for the witch's soul to continue to be rencarnated until one of the new demons die. The deal also said that he could never be with her again in exchange for her soul.

Now almost 500 years later, Hao has finally found his old friend again, but has also found the rencarnation of his old love. Can he keep to the deal and kill his treacherous friend before he gets killed? Can he stay away from this witch who now has powers over water and had captured his heart 500 years before? Or is he going to fail in everything that he set out to do 500 years before on the day that she was killed.

Hope you guys enjoy it. Comment and I'll update quicker.

Fire and Water

Hao stood in a tree within the cherry blossom park, waiting for his prey to come. His prey had been going to this park with a different woman everyday for the past 3 weeks. Hao had just been following and watching him for a proper moment to strike. Hao could never forgive Saki for what he had done 500 years ago. Hao had trusted him with a secret of Eyumi's powers. What had Yamaki done with that, he had gone and told the village elder about it. The old fool let the village burn his only love right in front of him. That night he made a promise with the gods. They let Eyumi get rencarnated again and again. He had watched her live out one lonely life after another, wondering why she never married or had children. Maybe she still dreamt about him, even after being reborn.

This night Yamaki had brought a different woman with him. He smelt a familiar sent behind them and looked at the person that was cautiously walking behind him. He could sense her aura even from the distance. The woman looked as though she was nothing more than a teenager. Hao couldn't see her face all the way because of her sweatshirt hood sheilding her eyes from view.

Demon Hunter, Hao thought to himself, I'll be damn if I let a demon huter get Yamaki before I can.

Hao summoned a fireball and launched it at the woman. She burst into flames and made Yamaki look around in horror, trying to find him. Yamaki looked straight at Hao and smiled calmly.

"Now was that necessary my old friend," Yamaki asked with a raised eyebrow.

"A love for a love," Hao said bitterly but calmly, "but far from even Yamaki. After what you did you are only my enemy now."

"That was 500 years ago my friend," Yamaki said, "So why can't you just let it go. Wasn't it enough that you cursed both of us with Immortality and our demon forms?"

"No it isn't," Hao said, "For you deserve far worst than what I gave you."

"Then I guess you don't mind if I kill her myself this time," Yamaki asked.

In a blink of an eye he was gone and back again with the demon huntress struggling in his arms. He had one hand around her neck and the other one held her to him. Hao stared at him in somewhat disbelief as Yamaki smiled at him.

"She's not only a witch this time," Yamaki said with an evil smile, "but she is also a demon hunter."

"That woman is only an innocent bystander," Hao said, "Eyumi is far from here.

"No she's not," Yamaki said, " I thought you would be able to tell how far she was from you. She's been following us since we left England."

Yamaki pulled the hood away from the woman's face and Hao stared in shock. The woman looked exactly like Eyumi other than her black hair had red highlights in it. She had the same fire burning within her eyes as she struggled to get free from Yamaki.

"Stop struggling witch," Yamaki said angrily as he took out a knife and held it to her throat.

She stopped struggling and held still as Yamaki breathed on her ear, sending shivers down her spine.

"I wonder if I should kill her now," Yamaki said next to her ear, "or turn her into one of us. What do you think Hao?"

The woman grew a little pale at what Yamaki had said.

Hao, the woman thought, Could this be the man from my dreams. The one who has been plaguing them since I was a child?

Hao just stared at Yamaki angrily as he remember the time that he and Eyumi shared together before the towns people came for her.

Hao looked at Eyumi as she stared at the setting sun. She smiled at the sight of it going behind the hills. She looked at him with the smile on her face. She rested her head on his shoulder as he saw a group of the townspeople coming towards them from the village.

"What is the meaning of this," Hao demanded as he looked at the village elder.

"Eyumi is a witch," the old man said, "We cannot allow her to live for her wickedness."

"Who has told you this," Hao said, "I demand to know who has made these claims!"

"Yamaki has told us of her wickedness," the old man said, "now stand aside, or you will go with her."

Eyumi stood up an smiled at Hao.

"Its okay my love," Eyumi said, "We'll be together again in either this life or the next."

"Don't do this Eyumi," Hao said, "There has to be another way."

"I'm not afraid my love," Eyumi said, "Death just means a new beginning."

Hao watched as they burned her in the village square. All throughout the burning she stared at him until her death, a loving smile for him on her face.

"Let her go," Hao said, "and I promise you that you will be able to live for another day Yamaki."

"Do you think that I care," Yamaki asked, "I've been alive for 519 years. Death would be a sweet reprieve for me."

The woman just closed her eyes as the fountain's spout began to grow. It grew into a long tentacle as it came towards them. Hao and Yamaki stared in disbelief as Yamaki let go of the woman and backed away from her. The woman turned around to face Yamaki. She opened her eyes wide to reveal her eyes had turned jet black.

"Never touch me again you filthy demon," the woman yelled as the tentacle of water came at Yamaki.

Yamaki got hit with it in the chest and sent flying across the park. The woman closed her eyes again as they returned to normal. She looked at Hao with a questioning look on her face. She began to sway as she walked towards him. She fell forward.

"Hao," the woman said before losing conciousness.

Hao ran forward and held her up from falling. He looked at her before looking in the direction that Yamaki was sent to.

"I've got to get you out of here Eyumi before he comes back," Hao said.

He jumped into the trees and began to run towards his house.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yamaki stood up from the small crater of where he landed and stared at the direction that he had come from.

"You will regret ever doing that to me Eyumi," Yamaki said with his voice dripping with venom, "I will make you beg for death in the end."

Amigirl: So how do you like it? I was going to add a lot more to this chapter, but then it would be too long so I had to shorten it. Please comment and I'll update sooner.
