Dead Mans Party

Chapter 1

...Big Move...

He walked swiftly down the sidewalk, passing the large cemetary, it bringing back numerous memories, most of which were bad. Everything had change since that day so long ago. No longer was he and the boy enimies, were now allies, or moreover friends. He smirked, the dark bags under his eyes lifting a bit. People walked past him, giving him strange looks. The middle of summer and he was waltzing around in a double paddded trench coat with matching hat, not to mention a large suitcase. He ignored their gawking, continuing on. He wasn't here on buisness, this time it was just personal.

The small city was hot as hell, but he didn't feel it, only felt the chill in the air. He stopped for a moment, over looking the cemertary, saw a service going on in the distance. As if by impules, he removed his hat, lowering his head some. "So unfortionate..." he said softly, placing his hat back on his head. He continued to gaze at the cemetary, feeling comfort here. He enjoyed being around the dead, after all he was a necromancer. He smirked a bit, saw a few crows fly over head. "Such beauty, a murder of crows." he said to himself, whatching as the large black birds flew on. He couldn't help but smile. Whenever you saw a crow fly over head it ment someone had died and their soul was being carried to heaven...or so he had been told. He believed it of corse, it making perfect sense. He staired a bit longer, enjoying his place of self solitude. He hated death, but enjoyed being in a place that seemed to reek of it. ...not true... he thought, turning from the cemetary a bit. ....a hospitol is a...true place of death... he thought, smirking.

He then shrugged a bit and carried on, slowing his pace a bit. It wouldn't be long now, 20 mins more of walking and he would reach their dojo. He couldn't help but be excited. He hand't seen them all in so long, his quest to bring back his lady love taking longer then he had antisipated. He then decided to take a breif holiday, opting to go see the young boy and his friends, who were rumored to still be here. He also heard rumors of the young boys escapades with the slightly insane shaman Hao. ...more like, severly mentally ill... he thought, smirking a bit. People thought he had issues, they should see Hao. Stay with him for an hour or so and you'll know the definition of insane. All in all, he pushed thoses thoughts aside. He was here to relax and socialize, not worry about some loonatic who was seemingly millions of miles away..or so he thought...

Hao sighed, sipping at a goblet. He was bored as hell. Why was it so boring here? He needed something to do, someone to kill. ...mmm, i'd like to watch you bleed Yoh... he thought, smirking a bit, as he peered into a large black cauldron, filled with a purpleish liquid. The liquid had an image portrayed on the top, an image of Yoh, tranning outside the dojo with his friends, Anna standing in the background watching. He tilted his head a bit, the image shifting to Anna. She stood now, her arms folded as she continued to watch her lover train. Hao smirked a bit, still finding her attractive. No other women made him feel this way. ...except maybe Marion... he thought, continuing to staire at Anna. Marion was ok, but Anna, she was different, had a kind of aura about her that seemed to draw him to her. Not to mention she was incredibly beautiful in her short, black dress. Hao licked his lips a bit, wanting more then ever to seduce her, then have his way with her. He smirked at his black thoughts, couldn't help but invision the two sharing that passionate moment of ectasy. He then sighed. Anna was a bit harder to get then he thought, as she was a traditional shaman, not to mention had a long history, which made her very powerful and extremly difficult to manipulate. He smiled a bit, didnt really mind it too much as he enjoyed playing the mind games with her. She was very...amusing.

He sighed a bit, just enjoying watching her, saw Jun approach her. They were discussing something, Anna saying she needed to go pick up a few things, but was a little un easy at leaving. Hao smirked, couldn't blame her, he HAD screwed Yoh up while she was gone. After a short while, Jun convince Anna to go and that she would stay behind to keep matters safe. Hao smirked, thinking about making a quick stop by the dojo, but stopped suddenly. He snapped a finger, the image quickly changing to that of the strange older male, making his way towards the dojo. He blinked a bit, confused as to why that man was even here, but smirked as he began his evil plotting, already cooking up a new plan to try out on Yoh and his posse. "A necromancer..." he said, smiling evily. "It would be difficult to manipulate one, let alone controle him." He sighed a bit, pouting childishly. "So sad..." he thought, rubbing his forehead, smirking once more. "Although, he may just happen to be a special case..." he said, his spirit agreeing. This necromancer had a soft spot, and enough self doubt to fill a football feild, Hao was a shoe-in to controle him. He smirked, noting it would take a decent amount of his furioku, but didn't mind, he had enough to take out half the planet if he so desierd. He was sure this plan would be fool proof, but couldn't help but wonder...

....they always seem to find a way to ruin my plans... he thought, frowning. It was true, somehow, someway, something would happen and boom, his entire plan was gone, ruined. "If only I could get rid of one of them, then--" he stopped suddenly, his answer clear as day. ...Anna... he thought, smirking a bit. She was the stone that the others all fell back on, she kept the group in line, helped them get strong, refused to let them panic. ...if she weren't there... he thought, rubbing at his chin a bit. If he could get rid of her, the other would drop like flies. It was her and Yoh who held the group together. If he could ambush them, or somehow keep them away to get his hands on Yoh, but preferably Anna, and be able to kill her right then and there, he knew that that would make them fear him and they, the group, would be useless. He smirked a bit, deciding he'd take out Anna first, after all, he had plans for Yoh, and death wasn't a part of them. ...at least not yet... he thought, smirking. He sighed contently, sitting back in his large throne chair, relaxing as he continued to plot his next big move.
