A/N: Hey guys! You may have noticed or not, but this was supposed to be mainly a YohxAnna fic but I decided for it to be a HaoxAnnaxYoh (along with the other pairings) so I edited the 1st chapter with some very minor changes. Thanks to Abie05, mokiSK, A Rose for me-A Rose for you and lolligje (Your reviews made my day :D). So here's the 2nd chapter and I hope I don't disappoint you guys.

Chapter II- Confusion
"Hao! Hurry up already, we're gonna be late!"
Anna blew a strand of hair that fell in between her black eyes as she sat on her stroller bag. It was already 5:45 am and if Hao wasn't going to show any minute she felt like punching him right across his smirking face. Since everyone had to wake up this early, almost all of them weren't in the mood to 'be nice.' Resulting in Horo and Ren fighting, Yoh was listening to music with his usual calm exterior, while the girls just sat down and waited for Hao.
Suddenly, Hao came running from the boys' dorm room. The group sighed with relief. He was about to say something when Anna cut him off.
"What the hell were you doing that took you so damned long?" Anna almost yelled, speaking out everyone's thoughts.
"Feisty aren't we today Anna? Well, it does take up a lot of precious time to look this good."
Anna rolled her eyes.
"Especially when I'm around a hot chick." Hao flirted with Anna. While Yoh turned green with envy.
"Ooh, I'm soo flattered." Anna sarcastically said. Yoh sighed relieved.
At least I know Anna's not interested in Hao. I just hope Hao won't try anything funny.
Anna glanced at her watch, 6:00. Then, right on cue, the cab arrived. The driver helped everyone place their bags on the trunk, and when everyone was ready, they took off. Pirika and Tamao were sitting beside each other, they both fell asleep, and Pirika's head was on Ren's shoulder, which was beside her. Ren blushed, while Horo Horo was munching on junk food and was surprisingly silent. Anna was sitting in between Hao and Yoh, Yoh was sleeping, while Hao was listening to music. And Anna was reading a book.
The rest of the car trip was pretty much quiet, until they arrived at the airport. Everyone groaned except Anna, as they stepped into the airport. Yoh walked over at the booth.
"Ohayou Gozaimasu, how may I help you?" The lady at the booth asked.
"I'm Asakura Yoh. Me and my friends are supposed to take a flight to California at a Private School?"
"Oh, of course. You're all from Shinra High right? The principal called in last night, here are your tickets. And have a safe trip."
"Arigatou, Ja Ne!"
Yoh returned to the others and handed them their tickets. They handed over their luggage and waited for their plane. Pirika, Tamao and Horo decided to get some breakfast at a fast food stand, and Ren read a book. Hao was just sitting down with his eyes closed and Anna was no where to be found.
I wonder where Anna is… Yoh thought as he walked around the airport.

Anna sighed as she looked at herself in the mirror. And found a pale young girl with emotionless eyes staring back at her. Long, straight blonde hair, pink lips and a slim body wearing black baggy pants and a black tank top.
Anna felt disgusted at herself.
So ugly…
Anna told herself everyday, what her sister used to always tell her.
But they wouldn't understand. Anna came from a well-off Japanese family. At least it used to be. Back then, she had everything a girl could ever wish for. Money, looks, everything. But it all shattered into pieces years ago courtesy of one single person. Coming from a clan with a Shaman bloodline she learned to fight. Years went by and she was alone with no one around to guide her each step of the way, until she eventually got used to the pain and she became numb and lifeless of her hellish life.
Sure she inherited the money but no one could ever understand the way she cried herself to sleep every night over the same damned freakin' thing. She resented herself, since after all, it was all her fault. For not being strong enough. For being weak.
She had met Yoh and the others at the Shaman Tournament and she was one of the top 5. She was 3rd actually, next to Hao. But there was a glitch and the tournament was closed. Though, no one was declared to have taken the title.
Anna sighed looking at herself one last time as she exited the restroom, and found that the others we're already seated, all except Yoh.
Yoh…
--------------
Yoh continued on with his stroll, as he glanced at the large clock that hung on the wall. There was still a good fifteen minutes left before their plane was taking off. He had a calm expression on his face, with his usual goofy smile. But deep inside he was deeply confused, his thoughts leading back to one person.
Anna…
Sure he was fond of her, cared for her and maybe even loved her, but he was just so confused. Sure, he had dated a lot of girls, but he never felt the same nervousness and excitement whenever he was around Anna's presence. There was something about her that made her special. A different sensation. And he liked it.
Yoh decided to head back to where his friends were at. He was surprised to find that they already left. He started to panic when he heard Pirika's loud voice calling his name.
"Come on Yoh! You don't wanna miss the plane, do you?"
Yoh followed the direction of the voice and found Pirika waving to him, while climbing on the stairs to the plane, when a thought crossed his mind.
Maybe I do love her.
