chapter 3

Manta squeezed his eyes shut as he clung helplessly to Faust. Faust knelt down and hid Manta in his white jacket. Ryu frowned as the room seemed to spin and everything began to fall over in a terrible mess of flying objects, broken glass and the lights flickering on and off along with an array of horrid noises.

" GOD WHAT IS THIS!!!" Ryu yelled frantically trying to keep his feet on the ground. Faust cringed as glass shattered cutting up his face.

" This is really really bad..." Yoh said as he stood there. He looked around quickly till a long crow bar caught his eye. He lunged for it grabbing it tightly his arms getting scraped in the proccess.

" Yoh-Dono!" Amidamaru cried and without hesitatition entered his body.

Manta cried out as he could see Yoh stand up. " No Yoh...please be careful!!!!" He cried as a large piece of glass flung itself towards Yoh. Feeling Desperate Manta broke free of Faust's grasp.

" NO MANTA DON'T BE FOOLISH!!!!" Faust cried.

" Duck Faust!!! This is up to them now!!!!" Ryu cried feeling helpless as he bolted infront of Faust.

Manta ran leaping ontop of Yoh. He cringed biting down on his lip untill it bled. The glass piercing his lower back. He looked down at Yoh seeing the tears run down his face.

" MANTA!!" Yoh cried as his eyes dialeted turning completely white. Manta coughed blood coming out of his mouth. He looked at Yoh once more before falling onto the ground and fainting.

" Manta...." Ryu looked shocked as he fought the the darkness infront of them.

" One sprit...the soul of a mere human has so much power..." Faust looked onward in disbelief.

" Well its an entity made up of pure evil and hatred..." A voice rang out

Yoh looked up feeling slightly relieved as three shadows stood in the door way.

" PAILONG!" Jun yelled out and watched as he jolted through the darkness that filled the entire middle of the house. Ren soon joined him as they fought to gain controll over what had destroyed the Oyamada residence.

" I'll get him out of here!!!" Horo yelled nervously as he grabbed Manta. " FAUST LETS GO!!! YOU NEED TO TREAT HIM!!!" Horo yelled.

" Of course!" Faust nodded running out through the door with Horo Horo looking back at the others feeling rather worried.

Yoh stood up holding the crow bar as it glowed blue Amiramaru's eyes blinked as he was inside of it. Yoh's body was rather cut up blood ran down his fore head along with many cuts across his thin body.

" This is crazy..." Ryu focused hard. " We've got to find the form of Mansumi inside this whole mess!" he shouted.

Jun sent out many Corpse puppets after the entity then watched in horror as they were quickly whiped away turning to ashes. The five stood there as the darkness vanished and everything in the house that was destroyed reversed itself.

" What is this..." Yoh fell to his knees the house being back to the way it was before anything had ever happened. He looked forward feeling puzzled as he saw Manta's little sisters face smile sadly then vanish.

" Mannoko..." He whispered. " In the end you did care about Manta-chan..it was you who helped save us..."

" What?" Ren asked

" Its nothing..." Yoh coughed.

" We better get going" Jun noted.

" Sankyuu..." Yoh forced a smile on his face. They nodded and quickly left in Jun's black van.

" what a way to start off one's day.." Ryu sighed.

" Manta.." Yoh sighed standing up.

" Lets go find them.." Ryu smiled sadly squating down. " Get on my back..." he motioned Yoh. Yoh walked over and climbed onto him weakly.

" Suprisingly this isn't a serious wound...if it had been going towards them at a faster pace..then it would be different.." Faust said softly as he teared his shirt wrapping it tightly around the wound. " The whole shock of the situation was what made him faint."

HoroHoro nodded and stood up " I'm sorry..I should go now.." Horo said and left on his snow board quickly.

" So strange..how they have become so distant from us recently..." Faust stood up holding Manta in his arms. His eyes slanted suspiciously.
