Chapter 1

Manta sat up in bed a warm breeze caressing his face as he panted sweat running down his forehead. He whimpered quietly as his books rustled in their shelves a few fell to the floor. Yoh slept silently on his belly snoring softly not affected at all by what was happening around them. Manta whimpered loudly and it was all over. The books stopped, the breeze went away and the entire bed room fell silent. Manta sighed happily in relief.

*~ Every Night since the four of us have lived here...this happens to all of us.. Ever since my father murdered my family this house has been haunted. Its scary..and I don't like it seeing my mother and sister miserably try to drive us out of this mansion. I don't understand any of it..but perhaps whats happening here can be solved...I don't know..its June now only a few months since Yoh and I have confessed love for one another..I hope that this summer will be much better than the events that have happened this year...*~

Manta bit his pen and dropped it to the side of the window sil. He carefully locked his lavendar diary and placed it under his pillow. Laying down he slowly eased himself closer to Yoh feeling the warmth of his back. He closed his eyes breathing deeply as his small cheeks turned red. Ryu eyed the two through the crack in the door. The bedroom had always been left slightly open. Manta being embaressed that Faust or Ryu would suspect something if it were completely closed. Ryu found this humerous. He smiled walking down the stairs to start breakfast.

" Ah, You are up rather early my blonde friend..." Ryu smiled. Faust nodded as he sipped the warm tea from his cup.

" We had visitors again tonight..." Faust said softly.

" mmm...they don't scare me.." He smiled raising his thumb up " I'm going to make You, Big and Little brother a great Sunday breakfast and no angry spirits are going to stop me from doing that!" He grinned.

Faust chuckled as he stood up. " Then I will leave you and the kitchen alone.." He winked stepping out of the room.

" Lets get to it then!!!" Ryu yelled. He began to glow green. He laughed as he walked up to the fridge. " Master never said I couldn't use my spirit to help me cook!" He smiled remembering last night.

* Manta sat at the dinner table across from Yoh, Ryu sitting beside him and Faust at the very end. Ryu grinned as the four of them ate happily. " So guys...what do you want for breakfast?" Ryu asked popping a rice ball into his mouth. Manta blushed feeling bold. " I want steak!" He beamed. Yoh snorted and laughed. Manta blushed hiding his face. " Sure thing Lil brother...does anyone disagree?"*

Ryu smiled and laughed " the little guy wants steak for breakfast."

Manta walked down the stairs carrying his bright orange and yellow blanket with him getting ready to watch his morning cartoons.

Jeanne stood up wearing navy blue capris and a grey tank top. She stared out the window as Anna stood behind her.

" You know its for the best... you've misled yourself for so long....you should stay with us like you have been you'll be much happier this way...or do you want to continue living with yourself and believing in a false sense of Justice?" Anna asked her coldly.

Tamao looked at Anna pressing her finger to her lip motioning Anna to not continue.

Yoh got up only wearing a pair of boxers. " I have a bad feeling Amidamaru...something just isn't right..."
