Ch. 1 Initialization
Manta awoke to a very disturbing sight. Right in front of him was a chest. A MALE chest. Looking up, he finds a neck connected to the chest. And above the neck he found…
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH
HHHHHH!"
Manta's yell was enough to bring the dead to life.
The boy blinked his eyes bleary. "Mmm? Can you keep it down? You're so loud."
"Hao! What are you doing in my room!" Manta demanded.
"Hm? You invited me." Hao pulled the covers over his face. "Goodnight."
"What! First it's not even night! It's morning! Second, when did I ever invite you!" Manta yelled.
Hao groaned and pulled a pillow over his head.
It was Manta's favorite pillow.
"What the! Give me that!" Manta held his pillow protectively.
Hao mumbled under his breath about a certain accursed source of light, AKA the sun and wrapped himself further within the blankets.
"G-Get out! Hao!"
Manta groaned sipping his morning beverage. 'Things aren't going so well…'
Hao happily ate and commented on Manta's cooking.
Manta sighed. "I can't believe this." He reread the letter mailed to him from Yoh.
Dear Manta,
Hey, how's it going? Nothing's changed much save for Trey actually having a job, ha! He works at Burger King, isn't it great! Though he wouldn't let me have any free burgers. Something about his boss's rules. Anyway, Anna's more fired up than ever trying to convince my family. She makes me mop the floor...
WHICH you haven't started yet!
H-hey! Anna!
How dare you Yoh! Writing so badly about your future wife! I oughta nail you to the wall!
Wah! Anna! Don't hurt me!
Um, this is Amidamaru. How I am writing, don't ask. Anyway, What Master Yoh is trying to tell you is, Mistress Anna! Please don't! Spare Yoh-dono! No! Don't kill him!
Ha! Ha! ARGHYAH!
Please save Yoh-dono.
Ow… Hey, Manta, I'm alive, thankfully. Um, ok...
……………………………………………
What was it I'm supposed to tell, er write?
UGH!
UGH!
GRRRRR!
Wah! Anna!
How could you have forgotten!
No, please!
CRACK! POW!
(Van: What the heck? How did sound FX get in this!)
BREAK! KABOOOOOOOM!
Ow…
Remember, now?
O-of course Anna! I don't need any help, hahahaha… Manta, if you're still reading and haven't thrown this away,
Which you shouldn't!
We're asking you this teeny tiny favor… Can you watch over Hao? My family sure can be unreasonable. They've got ISSUES heh! Anyway, we'll let you know as soon as possible when you can send him back.
Yoh, is it really such a good idea to have Lord Manta watch over Hao?
Of course it is, right Manta?
……………………………………
Oh yeah, he can't respond. ;
Sincerely,
Yoh, Anna, Amidamaru
Ps: Hao gets real edgy about human stuff, so don't be disappointed if he doesn't know what a T.V. is.
Ps: Hao better send the check for the damages to our set!
Pss: If he mentions ANYTHING about me being his wife, mark it down. That's the number of lives I'm going to ruin.
Psss: You better send us some pleasant gifts such as sushi or I'll tear you LIMB FROM LIMB!
Ps: Lord Manta, what shall I do? How long will it be before Master Yoh JOINS me?
'What the heck? They actually wrote what they said?' Manta sighed. Typical Yoh. Well, seeing as how he has his own house with a great job with a high salary, he wouldn't blame him.
Hao pulled his dishes into a pile, thanked for the meal, and placed them in the sink.
Manta thought, 'Maybe it's not so bad…'
A few seconds later there was a flash, a click of shutters, and Hao screaming.
"My EYES! My EYES! My SOUL! My SOUL! My HEART! Ah!"
Manta sweatdropped. 'Then again, maybe not.' His eyes widened when he heard a crash, glass breaking, blinds moving, electricity cracking, cars honking, more crashing, cats yowling, women screaming, and Hao's high pitched battle cry. 'Oh shoot my camera!' He thought. He ran to look.
Indeed, it was chaotic. The room was messed up. Mirror's broken, Dressers open, clothes torn everywhere, can't say for the bed, but on it was Hao banging the camera, or what's left of it, repeatedly on the ground. For the final triumphant blow against the evil camera, he called forth his fire spirit and transformed it into a sword. He swung. Missed. Swung. Missed.
"Hao!" Manta yelled aghast.
Hao turned his head and noticed Manta, but alas, it was too late.
Dear digital camera, adieu, adieu.
