I Wanna Be Bad
Chapter: 6
===I'm Here...For You...===
Part: 3

Morty was in hell, well felt like he was in it. He was dazed and confused, tired and was sure he had broke more then a few bones, and yet, continued on, despritly trying to ignore the pain. He knew Yoh was somewhere in the park, running his nine thousand laps, which Anna insisted he do. Morty was running himself, though was more limping then anythine else. People he passed gave him strange looks, probably cause he was bloody and looked like he had just commited a mass murder.

Frantically, he scanned the park, searching for Yoh, not seeing any traces of him. ....come on come on... he thought, beginning to panic. He hated himself for leaving Anna alone with that loonatic Hao, who was somehow, realted to Yoh. ...bilogically anyway... thought Morty, noting that Yoh was the sane one, and Hao must have got stuck with the insane gene. Either way, Morty had to focus on the task at hand, Anna's life and that of the others was all depending on Morty.

He continued to search, trying to use his sixth sense to see if he could pick up Amidamru...and stopped suddenly, looking ahead. He saw Yoh, accompanied by Jun and Lenny. "Y-Yoh!" called out Morty weakly. He yelled out some, his legs and back aching, but yet he pushed himself, repeating over and over in his mind, only a little futher, only a little further, you can make it. Once in leaping distanced, he leaped and what a leap, landing at Yoh's feet...and then they were all around him, Jun, Lenny and Yoh, kneeling near him, Jun holding him in her lap some, their spirits flaoting behind them.

"Morty!" yelled Yoh, whipeing some blood from his small forehead. "What happned to you?" asked Yoh, already sounding upset. "Anna..." Morty said weakly. Yoh blinked, his heart speeding up. "What about Anna?" asked Yoh, trying to hide the fear in his voice. Morty looked to Yoh, knowing he wasn't going to be able to stay awake much longer. "Yoh...Hao...Hao's after Anna..." Yoh stared at Morty, the statement slowly sinking in. ....no... he thought ....god no...! "Hurry...hurry and save her Yoh...!" cried Morty, suddenly passing out. "He's had quite a beating..." stated jun, though quickly assured the others that he was ok, just resting for the moment. "Lenny and Yoh quickly get to Anna, I'll get the car and take car of Morty." the two nodded, and Yoh ran, leaving Lenny. "Hey! Wait up!" cried Lenny, quickly running after him.

Yoh continued to run, fueled by his fear and his anger. ...I knew this would happen... he thought, blaming himself for what was happening now. ...I knew he was going to do this... he contiuned to think, Amidamaru interupting his thoughts. "Lord Yoh, nothing is your fault." he began. Yoh continued to run, Amidamaru still speaking. "Yoh, you musn't get over excited, remember, when you fight with rage you will lose. We must focus on saving Anna, but using our determination to do so, not our rage." Yoh nodded some, knowing what his samurai had said was true. He needed to push his rage aside and focus with Amidamaru in order to save Anna, but alas, he knew it would be a difficult task to do.

Hao continued to stare at Tamora, tilting his head some. Tamora was slowly inching her way over to the others, who lay in a heap on the floor, Ryo still out cold as was Pillica, but Trey seemed to be somewhat awake, moaning out some as he shifted on the floor. "Well then..." he bagan, Tamora freezing in her tracks. Hao lifted Anna into his arms bowing to Tamora. "I got what I came for, I'll be on my way..." he smirked, winking at her, then turned to face the door. "Hold it right there." said a voice from the far door. Hao smirked, knowing well it was Yoh.

"How nice of you to drop in." Hao said, facing his brother. "Hao..." Yoh said, narrowing his eyes. Hao smirked, looking to Anna. His arm supporting her legs had moved, so she now lay limp still, her back in his left arm, her own left arm hanigng limping at her side, her right lightly resting on her stomach. Her face was a mixture of fright and anger, her soft blonde hair wild now, her eyes closed, her lower lip quivering some, looking like she was in the middle of a horriable nightmare. Hao smirked evily, stroking her hair lightly. "She's so beautiful...when she sleeps." he said sarcastically.

Yoh growled. "Get your hands off her!" he yelled. Hao continued to smile, holding Anna to him. "She's my queen now...so what do you care?" Yoh growled again, Amidamrau showing himself. "Lord Yoh, he's trying to upset you, so you'll be unable to focus." Hao glared at the samurai, then smirked, continuing towards the door, but yoh had already dashed to it, blocking the way out. Hao smiled, lifting his head some. "You're not leaving here with Anna." said Yoh firmly. Hao smiled, looking to Anna. "Love...is such strange thing, don't you agree brother?" "You're no brother of mine." spat Yoh coldly.

Hao looked to him, still smirking as always. "I'm a busy person Yoh, so if you don't mind, I'd like you to step aside and let me pass." Yoh didn't move, knowing that he needed to keep Hao here, because here he at least had a chance to stop him. Hao sighed, apparently getting annoyed. "Yoh, get out of the way." he said. Yoh didn't move from the door, however, raised his wooden sword to Hao. Hao blinked, shocked some that Yoh had somehow already acheived unity with his spirit, though he hadn't sensed it. Yoh stared at Hao angrily. Hao smirked. "Anna is definitly ment for me, she's cold and myseterious, not to mention dark and evily...like me."

"Wh-what a stupid bastard..." said Trey, laying on his back now, as Tamora tried to stop his arm from bleeding. The two looked to him, Hao blinking some. "Don't let him talk about Anna like that..." began Trey. "Beat the crap out of him Yoh...that's what I would do if I could stand that is..." he finished, panting hard. Yoh looked back to Hao angrily, knew Hao had hurt his friends and was now attempting to take his girlfriend from him. "Well Hao, I think you'd better put Anna down and leave now before you really make me mad." Hao laughed low, setting Anna down gently and Yoh for a moment, thought Hao was being sensiable, but caught Hao's evil smirk and knew that he wasn't leaving here until he got Anna. "I'll deal with you first, then when you're out of the way, I'll deal with her." he said, powering up with his spirit.

Yoh got into his stance, trying hard to put his anger aside, trying to focus on defeating Hao and saving Anna, but coudn't help but think about losing Anna. Hao smikred, then dashed at Yoh with such speed, Yoh didn't even know he was hit until Hao was behind him. Hao then grabbed at Yoh's hair, swinning him some, Yoh yelled out, but quickly jabbed right, hitting Hao's side. Hao growled, tossing yoh away. Yoh rolled with it, kneeling now, raising his sword again.

Hao smiled, then dashed foward, at the last minute, leaning back so that the heel of his foot, hit the bottom of Yoh's jaw, Yoh falling back again. Hao leapted up then, punching down, and Yoh parried with his wooden sword, bearly blocking the blow. Hao smirked, then thrust his other hand down, grabbing Yoh by the neck. Yoh yelled out, stummbling as Hao pulled him to his feet, then slammed him hard against the wall and pinned him there, keeping his own body pressed against Yoh's. Yoh pushed at him, noticing his untiy with Amidamaru had been severed.

Hao smirked, seeing he had made a small cut on the left temple of Yoh's head, saw a small trickle of blood running down it. Yoh continued to struggle, though unable to do much to free himself. "Shhh..." said Hao, stroking Yoh's hair softly. Hao moved his hand up, so that Yoh's face was looking at the ceiling, Hao leaned to Yoh's ear talking softly now. "If you really love Anna, come get her..." he began. "Deep in the forest....there's a castle, hudden. She'll be there waiting for you Yoh...that is, if you come..." Yoh was panting now, Hao's fingers tight around his neck, stranggling him some. Hao smirked, leaning down now, slowly sliding his tongue up Yoh's left temple, licking the blood from it slowly. Yoh moaned out some, then thrashed wildly, trying hard to get Hao away, but was unable to overpower him.

Tamora watched form the side, looking to Trey who was moaing out in pain. She quickly looked back to Hao and Yoh, not sure what to do. "I'm sorry Tamora.." said Conchy. "Yeah! Our powers aren't strong enough to fight against him!" replied Ponchy. Tamora glanced around the kitchen, looking for a weapon, anything that could be used to stop Hao or at least stun him until Yoh got his composure back. She glanced to the island and saw a large frying pan sitting atop it. She looked back to Hao, saw he was still focused upon Yoh and decided that this would be the best time to strike him.

Without hesitation, Tamora ran fourth, grabbing the handle of the pan in one hand and swung back, the pan hitting the right side of Hao's head, Hao yelling out as he took the blow, Yoh dropping to the floor, panting hard. Tamora blinked, shocked at her own actions, her guardians whatching in shock as well. Hao felt something warm run down the side of his face, and blinked as he pulled his hand back, looking to his fingers, seeing the tips coated red. He faced Tamora slowly, lowering his hand. "That's wasn't very nice..." he said angrily. Tamora stepped back, frightened. Hao smirked, walking the short distance to her. Conchy and Ponchy lept in front of him, blocking his path now. "Get away from her!" yelled Conchy. "Yeah!" backed-up Ponchy.

Hao smirked, backhanding the two away. "Conchy! Ponchy!" cried Tamora, watching as they both flew past her. As she went to glance at Hao, her frying pan went flying, Hao now before her. She gasped some, backing up. Hao smiled, taking her wrist and pulling her to him then tossed her back so that she hit the wall hard. She cried out, sitting on the floor now. Hao smirked down at her, grabbing her hair gently, then jerking up so that she looked at him. She cried out again, sure he was going to kill her. "Tsk, tsk tsk..." he began, shaking his head. He smirked, about to strike her again, when something hit him from the left hard. Hao yelled out, skidding across the floor, quickly regaining his composure and stance.

Yoh stood before Tamora now, bloody and beaten, but finally sharing unity with Amidamaru once again. Hao smirked, brushing his long hair back. Yoh kept his sight on Hao, asking Tamora if she was ok. She nodded, looking to Hao now, still somewhat afraid. "Heh, you're really annoying..." said Hao. "Well, he's not as annoying as Ryo." said a voice from the right. Hao looked, seeing Lenny, leaning against a wall. Lenny looked to Hao, narrowing his eyes. Hao smirked, reading himself, not wanting to fight anymore, his furioku was running low, not to mention the fact that he wanted to get Anna and head back to his castle before the huge storm blew in.

Lenney got into his stance, already at unity with Bason. He entered his stance, rasing his massive lance to Hao, the sharp blade shinning in the light from the kitchen. Hao smirked still, looking out of the corner of his eye at Yoh, who was already in his stance as well. "Yoh, on three we attack together." said Lenny, Yoh nodding in return. Hao stepped back some, still in his stance, waiting for the two to strike him. ...that's when I make my move... he thought, smiling wide now.

"Now!" yelled Lenny, Yoh leaping at Hao from the left, Lenny dashing at him from the right. Hao smirked, leaping left, kicking out, hitting Yoh in the back. He then lept over Lenny, then backflipped in the air, landing near Anna. Yoh was already on his feet and running at Hao, even as Hao swooped Anna into his arms. Yoh brought his swrod towards the back of Hao's head, but Hao was already in motion, dashing past Lenny and leaping up standing atop a counter now.

The two looked to him, Hao smirking as he held Anna in his arms. "Come for her Yoh, she'll be waiting." he began, his back to the large window. Yoh watched, panting, knowing he wasn't going to be able to stop Hao and get Anna. Lenny knew too, not sure what to do now, only knowing that for the moment Hao had won. Without any further delay, Hao kneeled some, then leapt up, backflipping and crashing out the window, glass spreading around the area.

Yoh watched, blinking some, then fell to his knees, some glass cutting him as he did. He dropped his sword, staring at the ground, felt tears in his eyes, streaming slowly down his face. He shook his head some, trying not to let the reality set in, the reality that Hao had got what he had came for...and the fact that he, Yoh had faild to stop him.
