Pure Snow

Author's Note: Hehehe....we're down to the last four chapters! (Yeah...... there's some change of plans, there's now 14 chapters instead of 13) Oh, and because of the fact that I'm kinda slow I found out that this song has already been used as an opening for an anime called Himiko Den. Real shame....I was kinda hoping that it wasn't used. Ah well. You win some and you lose some. Though when I looked up Himiko Den it seemed pretty interesting. Even though it only has 12 episodes, I wanna see it! ( So now I'm searching for sub episodes I can download. Without BitTorrent because I hate BitTorrent. And it hates meh.....) Well, here's chapter 11!

Disclaimer: I own nothing!!! Stop asking already!
Chapter 11:

I could have blamed it on the cold weather; I should have jumped into your arms,

Why is it so cold?

I can't feel my body.....

Wait....

My ankle....I can move it....

Yoh....he's coming....

I got to get up....

But I feel to numb!

And that truck.....it coming closer.

But I can't....

Yoh!!!!

BOOOOOOMMMM!

I'm....flying....

So is Yoh....and he looks hurt....

Because of me.....

I knew I could feel my foot slide out right before Yoh grabbed me....

I could have blamed it on the cold weather; I should have jumped into your arms, but somehow, I just couldn't do it....


Anna Kyouyama flung her eyes opened and sat up. She looked around her surroundings and saw that she was still in Yoh's room. Anna rested her forehead in her palm. Her eyes were wide and she held her breaths.

"Oh my god....Hao was right.....I am a damsel in distress...."

Anna lifted her head up and fell back on the futon. She just wanted to stay in Yoh's bed forever. Keep herself isolated from the real world. But sooner or later she'd have to get up and face reality.

She dragged herself out of the futon and folded it up. Anna carefully set it in the closet and left Yoh's room. She walked to her own and slowly walked in and put on her school uniform.

When Anna left her room she went downstairs and was warmly greeted by Hao. He simply smiled at her. "Good morning. Sleep well?"

"Yeah." Anna lied. She didn't want to talk about the nightmare she had last night. She walked towards the door and grabbed her schoolbag. "Ready to go?" she asked him, looking coolly calm.

"Not having breakfast?" Hao tilted his head. Anna shook hers. "I'm starting to lose my appetite."

Hao looked down and closed his eyes. "Ok then." He walked over and grabbed his schoolbag and opened the door. "Shall we?" Anna nodded and walked out with Hao behind her as the two walked to school.

At school.....

Hao and Anna walked to their classroom in silence. As they walked to their desks their classmates just stared at them, wondering where the third musketeer went. When Anna glared at them the classmates quickly went back to what they were doing. Hao had a sweatdrop. He whispered at her. "Hey Anna....are you alright?"

Anna sighed. "Yes...just a bit annoyed...."

The bell rang and the teacher walked in. After setting his briefcase down on his desk he made an announcement. "Good morning class. Due to an accident that took place yesterday, Yoh Asakura will be absent until further notice."

Anna slumped down in her desk. Just hearing Yoh's name made her depressed. She sighed. Sadness wasn't gonna get her anywhere so she just sat up and pretended to pay attention to the teacher's lesson.

A little later when the bell rang to dismiss the class Anna gathered her things and was the first out the door. Down the hall she ran into some schoolgirls. The three girls who blocked Anna's path just smirked at her.

One of the girls crossed her arms. "So, your little boyfriend is out in a deep coma." another girl pointed at her. "And we bet it was your fault too!" the third girl nodded. "Yeah! Your fault!"

Anna frowned. She was really not in the mood to put up with these little tramps. "......."

"We were there! We saw it all!" said the first schoolgirl nodding.

Anna raised an eyebrow. "Why do you care so much? Are you members of a secret Yoh fan club?"

The second schoolgirl gasped. "T-That's none of your business!" The third schoolgirl nodded. "Yeah! None of your business!"

Anna sighed. To her, this was really pathetic. Of course she had the urge to slap them around but they weren't worth it. Then, someone put their hand on Anna's shoulder. "Leave her alone you sorry accuse for humans! Can't you see that Anna has already gone through enough?!"

Anna looked back and saw Hao who looked pretty ticked. The schoolgirls nodded and cleared a path for the two. Hao and Anna left the school.

Anna decided that she wanted to visit Yoh so the two walked towards the hospital. Anna glanced at Hao. "Hey....why are you always walking with me?" Hao grinned. "To prevent another accident. I'm just gonna drop you off though." Anna chuckled. "Gee, thanks."

When they approached the hospital, Hao waited outside. He figured Anna just wanted to be alone and he respected that. Anna walked though the double doors and up the stairs. She walked down the long hallway, checking all the room numbers. "295......296.....297....298......299....300....301......302.....303....304. ...and 305." Anna stared at the door. She took a deep breath before opening it. Slowly Anna grabbed the doorknob and turned it slowly counterclockwise. Pushing the door open she was blinded by the sun.

When her eyes adjusted to the light she saw Yoh, still in his dream world. There was also Tamao Tamamura, sitting right by his side, facing Anna. Tamao glanced up and smiled. "Hello Anna-sama." Anna grinned. "Hello Tamao....how is Yoh?" Tamao tilted her head down towards Yoh. "He's doing fine."

"Is that so? Do you mind leaving the room for a bit? I want to be alone."

Tamao nodded. "Ok Anna-sama." she stood up from her chair and left the room leaving Anna by herself with Yoh. Anna walked over to Yoh and held his free hand since his other one ran on IVs. She held his hand tightly. "Yoh....you better wake up soon." She clinched her teeth together; as if she was about to totally explode.

But she just couldn't she relaxed herself and her grip on Yoh's hand and tilted her head down, fighting off her tears. "Please....you gotta..." She released his hand and took a step back. Anna sniffled and rubbed her eyes. Turning around, she opened the door and stepped out. Tamao stood across from her, leaning against the wall.

To hide Anna's emotions she just simply smiled and walked away. When she walked down the stairs and opened the double doors Hao was leaning against a tree, deep in thought. She walked towards him. "Lets go." she simply said. Hao opened his eyes and yawned. "Right."

The two walked back to the house. Before Hao opened the door Anna stopped him. Hao blinked at her. "What's wrong?" Anna looked deep into Hao's eyes. "Why are you always there....when I need someone most?" Hao smiled and opened the door. Standing in the doorway he looked back at her smiling.

"Because I love you Anna."
but somehow I just couldn't do it.
