Love Blossoms 1: Yoh and Anna

I don't own SK (though I wish I did)

I borrowed some RK chars for this fic.

OK, here's the fic.

"YOH!!! YOUR GRAMPA'S LOOKING FOR YOU!!" Anna Kyoyama, age eight, trotted through the forest. She searched for her companion Yoh Asakura with eagle eyes.

"ANNA! Thank goodness! HELP MEEE!" She turned a corner to find him stuck high up in a tree, dangling by the waistband of his pants.

"HAHAHAHAHA! Yoh! What did you do this time?" Anna laughed, pointing at Yoh in amusement. The boy balled his fists and frowned.

"Help me, Anna!" he wailed.

"Okay, okay." She climbed up the tree with surprising speed and unslung Yoh, only to drop him onto the forest floor.

"OW-W-W!!! What was that for?" He cried. The unfortunate boy rubbed his butt in pain, wincing in frustration.

(Misao: Um, Misao? That's not very nice.)

(Misao7: Just pretend Yoh hurt Aoshi-sama.)

(Misao: GO ANNA! GO ANNA! GET 'EM, GIRL!)

(Yahiko: *sweatdrop*)

"You need to stop ticking Moe off!" Anna called. She climbed down and rejoined Yoh on the forest floor.

Moe was the local bully. His favorite victim was our boy Yoh. Anna often had to rescue Yoh from Moe's rampages.

(Yahiko: 'Moe'?! Is that the best you can do, misao7?!!)

(Misao7: Hey Misao! Get the kunai!)

"Anna, I didn't tick him off!" Yoh wailed. Anna promptly threw a Legendary Left on him. Well, at least the beginnings of one.

"Owww! Why do you always hit me?" wailed Yoh.

"Crybaby," Anna taunted and raced ahead of him, giggling.

(Kenshin: How come she's faster than he is? This one doesn't understand.)

(Misao: *brandishes kunai* Shaddap!!)

The two raced all the way to Yoh's house where Anna left Yoh to his grandfather. She then proceeded to run down to her own shack in the bamboo grove. She lived alone, but nobody knew.

Yoh, however, managed to get away from his grandfather and followed Anna to her house. Upon looking at her shack, Yoh started trembling. 'She lives alone? Should I tell grampa?' His reverie was broken by Anna's scream.

"Leggo o' me, you bum!" Anna was being attacked by a bum who thought the shack was his! Yoh immediately ran out of his hiding spot to help his friend.

"Leaf sprites!" Anna was startled by a familiar cry. She turned around and was immediately knocked down by the bum. But Yoh's leaf sprites attacked the bum, which didn't seem to make any difference in Anna's position.

"Anna! I'll getcha outta there!" Yoh yelled. Even though his heart was thudding with fear, he needed to help his friend.

"Yoh! Don't move!" Anna screamed. A snake was coiled up, waiting to strike. Anna's scream was the only thing that saved Yoh from a maybe fatal bite.

(Sano: Don't they have a doctor like Megumi?)

(Megumi: Hyohyohyo!)

(Misao and Yahiko: SHADDAP, LOUSY ADULTS!!!)

"Out-out-OUT!" The bum screamed. He hit Anna, knocking the wind out of her. At Anna's scream of pain, something inside of Yoh snapped.

"LEGGO O' MY FRIEND! HYAAAA!!!" Yoh sent a barrage of painful sprites out to destroy the bum, who reeled with shock.

Unfortunately, Yoh forgot the snake.

"YOH!!!" as he slipped into unconsciousness, the only two things Yoh thought of were Anna's panic and that the bum was unconscious. Then he slipped into the land of dreams.

"AAAGH!! YOH!" Anna threw the bum off of her and ran to her friend's side. "Ohhhh, this is baad. "

(Sano: Did you have to use such horrible spelling?)

(Misao7: That's IT! *hits Sano with kunai*)

(Sano: OWWW!!)

(Yahiko: SHADDAP!!!)

Anna picked up Yoh and the amazingly strong girl gave him a piggyback ride all the way to his house, where he received medical attention from his family.

A few hours later.

"Unnngh. " Yoh awoke from his sleep, and the first thing he was aware of was a dull ache in his shin. Wincing, he sat up in his bed, clutching his forehead. He moaned, feeling like a herd of elephants had trampled over his head.

"What happened?" he muttered, and as the events of the last hours came back to him, he was suddenly aware of a small head of blonde hair sleeping in a chair by his bed.

"Anna?" He looked at the face, and sure enough, it was Anna. Yoh smiled, realizing who had brought him home. He scooted closer to Anna and shook her awake, which would usually be a big mistake, but in this case, she was too worried about Yoh to care.

"Unh. " Anna woke up, rubbing her eyes. She was immediately aware of Yoh's hand on her shoulder.

"YOH! Are you all right?" she shrieked. Yoh eased her down, smiling.

"I'm OK, Anna, thanks to you." Yoh said. He grinned his impish grin at her, and the two of them shared a hug with Yoh's whole family looking on.

This is a series about Yoh and Anna's life together, starting from when they were eight years old. It will be completely separate from the real SK timeline, but a good fic nonetheless.

There will also be a Horohoro and Tamao fic sometime, if only I had time, if only. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed my first installment!
