Note*italics are thoughts

Chapter 5

I hate You …But I love You

"You know what I want!"

she froze when he said this , because she seemed to know exactly what the fire shaman was speaking about.

"look Hao I can go wherever I want and do as I please! NO ONE OWES ME, NOT EVEN YOH , I'm with him because I want to be!"

At this he lost control and his pupils went tiny "what do you mean? Nobody owns you?"

He took a step forward.

"I get whatever I want whenever I want! And I've been tricked and distracted from my intentions with you for too long now."

"ITS NOT LIKE IM GONNA STAY HERE FOREVER, I'm not your hostage anymore  I can go if I want to"

What she meant to sound like a hard fact , came out like a implication  full of fear, a plea.  He was now towering over her , she was on the couch sinking in far back as possible. She was trembling.

She's not going anywhere….

Hao on the other hand , who was second ago furious , suddenly gained his mischievous expression and smile. He was enjoying to see the fearless Itako having respect for once.

He bent over until for the one thousandth time in the days she'd been there, his nose was 1 cm away from hers and his mouth a little over 3.

" Tell me , are you bluffing or is it just me?"

how dare he

"SLAP" her hand flew across his face. He looked stunned for a second. But recovered as quick as his eyes had grown wide.

He smiled a malicious smile,

"That's what I like so much about you Anna-chan you don't show fear to me. And whenever you do…I must confess it turns me on…"

She was even more stunned at these last words.

This pyromaniac was certainly a psycho. He found fear attractive…and contradicted his other comments in doing so.

How could he be related to Yoh.  Yoh was so different. …

"Im sorry Hao , but what exactly are you trying to prove here?"

"Im saying that you are the first person who has awaken a new feeling inside me throughout all these years I have lived."

This was too many surprises in one day. She sank deeper into the couch and crossed her arms as if covering herself, feeling vulnerable.

"Its alright I don't expect you to respond immediately (A/N:has he got a big ego or wat?) And I understand why you would not like my ill-fated attempts. But im sorry for now I must do this…"

Again before she knew is he picked her up, flinging her over his shoulder. And carrying the now kicking and screaming girl up the stairs. "LET ME DOWN NOW!!! NOW!!!! THAT IS AN ORDER!"

Her wailing didn't work.  Until she felt herself being lunged onto a bed. She was waiting for…the usual. And closed her eyes tightly, nothing happened though.

She opened one eye and saw the great fire shaman staring at her amusingly.

"Don't worry this time that's not what I had in mind"

even so she continued to be suspicious and didn't ease up.

"Im just taking more desperate measures for now , I must go meet with my otouto, and give him a message. So  I advice you to stay in the house. Im trusting you not to run away , unless you want your friends to have an early death"

Saying this the guy walked away shutting the door behind him.

I…I

"Hao-sama?"

He was momentarily lost in his thoughts  I don't want to give her back….i've become quite fond of her…^__^

The little boy stood there looking up. Hao smiled

" yes Opacho?"

"Kana , Mari and Macchi are bruising up Yoh and his frieds pretty bad.."

Hao smiled

"Obviously , he should not have come. He isn't nearly strong enough yet."

Saying this he and Opacho began their short journey on the spirit of fires arm to the location where the fight was happening.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"KAU KAU PURIWEMPE!!" Horo  was now badly bruised but he kept on battling crashing his attack down onto the red haired girl in front of him.

She easily blocked it sending him flying against the canyon.  He landed on a pile…. Which now consisted of Chocolove, Ryu and faust.

"KISAMA!!!!!"  Len cursed as he looked back , seeing all of his companions now  piled. He and Yoh were the only ones left standing.

He powered up, "Bason oversoul!". He charged up the max and was aiming to strike at Marion.

"GOLDEN PUNCH!"

"Billy the kid , magnetic bullet." The rag doll flew from her hand shooting at Len who dodged the spiritual bullets but forgot to look behind him and was struck by all 3 which had been fired. Falling over , and his oversoul collapsing .

"LEN!"

The Chinese boy had collapsed on the ground bending over in pain. His Buttagiri completely gone.

Yoh was the only one left standing. The three girls snickered evilly, preparing to attack him. And so they did. But right before it hit him. Something stopped it….

"Yoh Asakura cannot die yet, by order of the iron maiden!"

it was Marco with three of the X-laws standing behind them ready to attack at any given moment."

His angel had fiercely attacked the three …females. And they seemed to be struggling with taking it out of their way.

The Angel finally dug in and a huge dent was made on the floor as the three girls oversouls collapsed.  Marco looked at Yoh and Yoh could see Liserg behind Marco , as always with his head cast down.  He frowned.

"Yoh Asakura , the iron maiden says : you are the beholder of many destinies …do not waste them." Saying this he turned away and started to walk away with the other x-laws.

"Why do they always gotta butt in!?"

It was Horo, who was standing up and limping holding his injured arm.

The others were also getting up , and giving signs of …life.

Yoh was glad.  But then he remembered his mission.

"Listen you guys , stay here and cal for help I'll go on my own …I have to keep on going"

He began to run ahead but was stopped by Kanna's huge spirit in armor…

"Your not going anywhere Yoh Asakura" The blue haired woman said holding him off her cigarette broken hanging in her mouth ,from the impact she took earlier.

He  was already pissed off, nothing would keep him from going ahead. But for some reason even the combination of his Futsunomitama (the little clay sword) and Haru-same was not beating Kanna's oversoul. 

"Shit" was all that he could utter , then and there.

"That'll be enough girls"

The three looked up

"Hao-sama" they said in unison greeting him and bowing their heads.

"Yoh, Yoh, Yoh…..your such a stubborn boy. But of course I must admit it runs in the family…. "

"grrr HAO!!!"

"Calm down Otouto. The Itako is just dandy….but I regret to imform you that your performance right now has not pleased me and your are far bellow my standards…Why don't you come back when you can actually beat my disciples without the help of those idiots who follow that girl in a can"

"Lets get him Yoh-dono!" said Ryu now recovered from his fall and ready to strike with his sword.

But suddenly the elvis/john Travolta in Saturday night fever wannabe was lifted of the ground by Hao's spirit.

"Now listen here Otouto, you broke your deal , which means that I have no obligation of keeping the Itako or anyone for that matter far from harm."

Saying this he squeezed Ryu even tighter.

"Don't listen to him Master Yoh just go on!"

But knowing Yoh of course he wouldn't he never left anyone behind. And this is exactly what Hao wanted.

Yoh put dropped his arms by his sides. And looked down in defeat and humiliation.

"good answer" Said Hao arrogantly dropping a half dead Ryu on the ground.

Faust and Eliza raced to care for the minor burns Hao had cared to leave on him. All the while chocolove, Horo and Len were in fighting stance ready to attack.

"come on Yoh this our chance! Lets get him!"

But Yoh signaled with his hand for them to put their weapons down. They were angry of course but put them down for Yoh's sake.

"That's better, now I'm gonna give you one more chance. But this time I'm nor gonna  be so lenient. You have less than one month to come back here and show that you have properly reached my level…If you make any attempts before this , im afraid your fiancé will suffer the consequences for your actions."

Saying this he disappeared. Returning to the cabin . Smiling to himself .

         I will go to any measures to have her…and your power dear otouto.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Back in the cabin , Anna couldn't help but feel in agony all that was going on .

She paced back and forth. Yoh , Hao , Yoh, Hao…

She was oh so lost in her thoughts and in what might be happening at that very moment.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Hao had dismissed Opacho to the camp , and was walking (like a civilized person for once hehe) to the cabin.

Anna , I cant help but think that tonight is gonna be great!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Anna had tired and sat down in the chair next to the table in the middle of the cabin , behind the couches and fireplace.

She had her back to the fireplace and was in deep thought still.

Until she felt a hand snaking through her neck into her hair.

She shivered. And instantly turned around.

"what have you done with him???"

"that is not of your concern now Anna-chan. But I'll be nice and  tell you that he and his pathetic friends continue to live. But for his insolence he has paid the price , and given me the gift of keeping you here with me longer…"

She roughly shook his hand off and got up.

"NO! NO! you cant do this to me!"

 he just watched her have her tantrum calmly taking a seat in the chair and holding his chin in his hand .

she raced for the door and frantically turned the knob. To find it was locked. And then began to bang , and bang. Let me out!!!

A sob escaped her and she sank to her knees her cheek against the door.

"Why do you keep me here.???"

He smiled calmly and answered in the same manner "Simply because I have taken a fancy to you Anna and  in this lifetime as a mate you would be the only one I want…you are what I inspire and what I need ….you are the cure for all my stress and remorse…believe it or not, I know you quite well. "

His answer made her sick with despair.  But she was also blushing and deeply startled at his confession.

"I know you think of me as food…" she said in a tone filled with remorse.

"On the contrary my dear, I appreciate you very much. I do not think of you as a sexual object. Because if that was it. I would have gotten what I wanted long ago and discarded you right after."

"go to hell"

"ah...the lady finally speaks her true self. Come now Anna stop acting like that and sit down here." He answered in a mocking tone.

She ignored him and continued to slouch against the door.

"Don't make me sit you down by force Anna, I know you don't like it."

She clenched her fists. And slowly rose making her way to chair in front of him .

Staring him in the eyes. Filled with hatred.

" I thank Kami for your character Anna , that face just makes me thank him even more …"

she noticed in front of her a glass filled with wine. And one which Hao was drinking casually in his hand. Now come on Anna , your not gonna let me drink alone are you…

She picked up the glass and swerved at his face. But knowing her tricks, The Wine turned to vapor before hitting his face. But the glass didn't hitting him square in it.

He abruptly lost his cool and massaged his forehead with a mad expression.

"Now Anna , you know that I'm not Yoh I wont stand your little tantrums any longer… so I advice you do not do it again."

She was very pissed. But just plopped down on her chair with her arms crossed in front of her .

He eyed her for a while. All the time The Itako looking to the side trying to ignore his presence.  He had taken enough.

He slammed the empty glass on the table and got up . Anna was suddenly startled by this and looked up at him, to notice he was without his cloak.  She gulped.

"You know what Anna , im gonna be honest with you"

She got up from her chair and started to back away.

And he continued…

"From, the very first time I saw you …you lit something more than my own fire in me…"

she was walking back without looking where she was going.

"And to be completely honest with you , ever since then I've been looking for an excuse to make you mine"

She was against the wall. With the fire shaman advancing towards her.

"But I failed to tell you that today I have and excuse for it. And tonight I shall be the first to awaken you"

she was terrified. She knew that this time her tears and screams would not get her out of the situation. She had to lie.

"Your  wrong Hao , I am not a virgin. I have been deflowered."

She saw a glimmer of jealousy in his eyes.

"impossible"

"of course it isn't.." she said thinking herself free from the tight situation.

"We'll see about that Anna"

He said pinning her against the wall with all his body , making sure she could not use any violent methods to escape him.

"DAMN IT!! Hao cant you see?? I gave myself to Yoh , you cant still want me!"

"On the contrary , now that I know of the fact you've experience I certainly can enjoy myself more…"

she was going to respond. But he took the opportunity to hungrily seize her mouth with his.

Taking her in his arms and completely tramping her within them. Making sure she would not escape.

There was nothing she could do.

He stopped the kiss. And looked at her. Her eyes full of fear.

He forced himself to detain his desire. But Damn it ! that red dress with the cleavage and her innocent face full of fear did not help.

He stroked her jaw line . then her neck.

Picking her up and carrying her to his room. In a manner where she would not be able o escape him. Once inside he threw her on the bed.  Holding her wrists and pinning her under him.

He hesitated again looking at the fear mixed with slight desire in her eyes , witch she was desperately fighting back.

She took the opportunity to try and run away. But he just lightly pushed her back into the bed. This time pinning her entire body and ravishing her mouth. Then pulling apart to look down at her with eyes full of burning desire.

"Please Hao …don't!"

"I am sorry Anna-chan , but I must"

With one hand he held both her wrists and wasn't patient with ripping down the cleavage of her red dress.

"STOP PLEASE!!"

ignoring her completely he again covered her mouth with his then moving to her neck and down her collar bone. He stopped right in the area where her breast line began.

And began to peel away the fabric with his teeth,

"Hao no!!!"

He was too tempted , and actually paused to answer her.

"Anna dearest , I cannot have you by your free will , so I must force you. Then I must kill my otouto and all his puny companions in order to carry out my dream"

saying this he continued to peel, bearing her black bra.

"You have nicely shaped and firm breasts Anna, just the way I like them" he said massaging one gently and then moving to uncover it.

With the blond squirming under him.

This was too much , he would not only take her by force but also

Kill everyone.

"Hao..Hao…if you promise not to harm Yoh and his friends. I'll..I'll marry you . "

He suddenly stopped , and looked at her face as if interested in what she said. But continued to hold her down.

"hmm..interesting…please continue"

"I'll marry you , and then I'll give myself to you willingly. But on the condition that if you do become Shaman king you do not harm Yoh or any one else…"

he lowered his head staring into her eyes his hair dangling and tickling her softly .

"Very well then Anna. But I am afraid I am to plot conquest soon."

"Then so be it, but don't harm my friends!"

"Deal closed!"

he said getting up.

"But remember after we wed, your mine"

She nodded.

And now sat up covering herself.

"Go to sleep Anna , Im going to take a cold shower ,we've got a biiig week ahead of us."
