New story. Yay! Just to tell you, this has very little to do with Shaman King. And, Anna is very OOC.
I'm late, I'm late! Anna panted heavily as she ran thorugh the streets of her neighborhood. Her school bag swung wildly and it was all Anna could do to keep from tripping. Stupid school uniforms... Anna thought, looking disgustedly at her 1 inch heel shoes. They were part of the uniform. Of course, she DID have her sneakers for gym but she had no time to take them out and put them on.
Anna continued to run and briefly looked down at her watch as she turned a corner. Suddenly, she found herself on the ground, dazed. A hand crossed her vision and she took it, stood up and brushed her uniform. She looked up to thank the owner of the hand, putting on a smile. It was then that she hesitated. She found herself looking up into the calmest and deepest chocolate brown eyes she had ever seen. Suddenly, a thought struck Anna. Hey... He looks just like... No... Can't be.
"T-Thanks." she stammered. The boy smiled, his dark brown bangs falling into his eyes. He took a moment to brush them out of his face before holding out a hand for her to shake.
"I'm Yoh." He said cheerfully. Anna gave a small smile. "I'm Anna..." Her eyes suddenly widened when she remembered her destination and the little time she had to get there. "Oh gosh, I would love to stay and talk with you but I have to get to school. It's the first day of my junior year at Tokyo High." The brunett looked surprised. "Tokyo High? Well that makes the two of us. It's my first day there." Looking at the question in Anna's eyes, Yoh added, "Junior year." Anna nodded, then started fretting again. "We only have 3 minutes to get there..." Yoh grinned lazily. "2." he informed her. Anna smacked her forehead. "We're never going to make it in time..." Yoh shrugged. "We should be able to if we sprint but I doubt you can do so in those." He pointed to her shoes. Anna looked longingly at the boy's sneakers. "It's not my fault girls don't have a choice of footwear." Yoh chuckled. "Ah well..."
Suddenly, Anna lighted up and grabbed Yoh's hand. "I know a short-cut, let's go."
Looking bewildered, Yoh ran after Anna who led him through many a path before coming to a high brick wall. "We just have to get over this..." Anna muttered. Turning to Yoh, she smirked. "You CAN get over this, can't you?" Yoh looked skeptically at the wall before backing up for a running start. The he ran towards the wall and jumped over it. Anna blinked and started climbing. On the other side, Yoh spoke. "Come on. It's not that high." After a pause, he added, "Classes already started." Oh damn... Anna thought and she finally made it up to the top of the wall and sat there. From below, Yoh smiled. "You can get down by yourself, right?" Anna hesitated before scoffing. "Of course. I can do better than ANY boy." Yoh shrugged and gave her a wave. "Alright then, see ya later." Anna watched, helpless, as he left, biting her lips. Now that he was gone, it seemed awfully high...
"Hey! Hey... Hey, you!" Anna called desperately. Yoh turned around mid-step. "Yes?" He asked, eyebrows raised. Anna gestured at the wall beneath her, embarassed. "C-Can you help me get down?" Yoh smiled. "Sure." He walked back towards the wall again and stopping briefly before Anna, he held out his arms. "Come on down." Anna gulped and shut her eyes. "Promise not to move?" she asked. Yoh chuckled. "Wouldn't think of it."
Putting out her arms in front of her, Anna leaned forward, her stomach soaring. She fell into Yoh's arms and her eyes snapped open, widening in surprise. Here she was, hugging some stranger. Shaking her head, she backed away, blushing furiously. "I gotta go. Goodbye." Yoh gave a casual wave and Anna turned quickly, running inside the school.
Review, PLEASE?
