Yoh woke up late. Amidamaru floated above him.
" No, Anna! Don't train- huh?!" Yoh looked up.
" Lord Yoh, I think you have forgotten Anna is not here." said his ghost.
" Oh, yeah! Time to sleep in!" Yoh plopped under the covers.
" Why did you have to leave, Anna? Now Lord Yoh is even LAZIER..." Amidamaru looked sadly at the sleeping shaman.
" I have to agree with you." said Manta, walking in.
" This place seems lonely without Anna." said Tamao, following him.
" Hey Yoh, you shouldn't sleep in this late!" said Manta.
" It's already 10 a.m." Tamao looked at the clock.
" Oh, fine, I'll get up." Yoh yawned and very slowly got up.
Just then, everyone's favorite blue-haired snowboarder and his sister knocked on the door.
" Hey guys, I brought FOOD!" HoroHoro yelled.
When they were inside, Pirika looked around.
" Where's Anna?" she asked.
This time, Amidamaru explained the situation. Both were shocked.
" She wants to marry that hotheaded, stubborn old grump?!" HoroHoro exclaimed.
" So you don't have to train anymore?" Pirika asked.
" Yup. No more training! She says Ren trains 'willingly' and is better than me." Yoh said.
HoroHoro snorted. Pirika made a face.
" Well, that may be true, but the best is my big brother. If she wanted the best, she should've gone after him." Pirika proudly remarked.
" Me and the evil Anna? Her training's worse than yours!" HoroHoro looked frightened.
" Exactly." she replied.
Back at Ren's place....
" Amazing. You can train better than Yoh ever could." said Anna.
" I still don't want to marry you. Stay with Yoh." Ren looked away.
Anna sighed. She looked at Ren. She wondered if Yoh could ever be like him. She didn't want Yoh to be a stubborn cow, but if she could just get him off his lazy butt...
" Look here Ren. I guess I'm just trying to show Yoh how much he needs me and my training. I'm planning on using the tactic of... jealousy." she said.
" And how will you do that?" Ren looked confused.
" Well, we pretend we're engaged. And I train you. Well, you train yourself, but pretend I'm giving orders. We'll act mushy around Yoh, and I'll brag about how great you are." she explained.
" And HOW will that tempt Yoh?" Ren asked suspiciously.
" You'll see. My plan will work. So now we are 'engaged'." Anna said slyly.
" Hmph." Ren stared out a window.
*To be continued...*
