Note: In the last chapter... I really don't think I added in the part where Hao tells Yoh that if Hao can't have Anna, then neither can Yoh... So this chapter will explain that part... Well it's more of the continuation of the last flashback...


Chapter 4- When It's Time to Say Good-Bye

"Yoh-Kun..." Manta nudged his friend. "Ne, Yoh-Kun... Wake up." Yoh yarned and rubbed his eyes.

"Huh?" He looked at Manta who had a concerned look on his face.

"Yoh-Kun, you have been acting strange lately. Are you ok?" Manta asked Yoh who just smiled.

"Ah, daijoubu." He told his friend, but his voice didn't sound too convincing. It sounded tired and way too soft.

"Are you sure? You don't sound ok." Manta studied his friend with a concerned face. Yoh sighed.

To tell you the truth Manta... I am not sure myself... Of course, Yoh didn't say that out loud. Instead, he just sighed.

"Fine... Just worn out from Anna's training." He told Manta. Manta smiled.

"Who wouldn't be? I remember Anna's intense training." Manta shivered at the thought. He would half expect Yoh to laugh but instead, he found Yoh asleep again. Manta sighed and decided to leave Yoh alone.


Flashback

"Please Anna... Just come home. Forget your training, just come home." Yoh begged again as he followed Anna.

"Leave me alone." Anna yelled as she continued walking.

"No. Not until you come home with me." Yoh told her with a determined voice. "Now come on! Before the storm hits!"

"NO! Now leave me alone!" Anna yelled. Yoh frowned. There was definitely no way he was giving up but if doesn't persuade Anna to come home, they would be stuck in the snow storm. He knew that Hao would have no problem surviving the snow storm but he and Anna would not be as lucky. Speaking of Hao... Where was he? Yoh looked around but couldn't find Hao anywhere. He turned back but only to find Hao with Anna. He was either A, flirting, or B trying to either blackmail or force her to come with her. It was probably both but Yoh didn't care. He ran off after them.

"Hey! Leave Anna alone!" He yelled at Hao who smirked.

"What? Jealous?" He asked Yoh whose face turned pink.

"N-No." Yoh muttered quietly making Hao laugh.

"Then you shouldn't have a problem." He told Yoh who made a face. This is so unfair. Hao always takes away the things he loves. First his Pikachu doll, then his Yu-Gi-Oh deck and now Anna. What next? His spirit and soul?

"Precisely." Yoh blinked and looked at Hao who smirked. Yoh glared at his older twin. After all these years, Hao was still teasing Yoh by reading his thoughts.

"And what makes you think Anna is yours Otouto?" He asked Yoh who folded his arms.

"Hey, I know her longer then you have." Yoh pointed out. "And you just met her."

"True but I know enough about her." Hao told her. "Because-"

"Because you are Asakura Hao." Yoh finished Hao's sentence with a mocking voice. "I know, I know. And I am Asakura Yoh. I mess up all your plans." Yoh grinned wildly while Hao rolled his eyes and yet again, smacked Yoh on the back of the head.

"You should be called the crybaby." Hao muttered. Yoh's eyes began to water and turn big and round. He ran off after Anna with a few sniffs.

"Why are you crying?" Anna asked Yoh as he ran up to her.

"Aniki hit me again." Yoh said through sniffs.

"Well good for him." Anna muttered angrily. Yoh's eye's widened and started to water again.

"Why are you taking his side?" He asked Anna. "You like him more then me?" Yoh sniffed and wiped away his tears. Anna rolled her eyes.

"I never said that." She told him. Yoh's face suddenly brightened.

"Really?" He asked. All of a sudden, his tears were gone and his face looked like it had never shed tears before. "Yay! Anna likes me!" Yoh jumped here and there happily, not knowing that he was at the edge of the hill. He suddenly slipped and fell off.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!" He yelled. Anna's eyes widened as she grabbed his foot before he completely fell off the edge of the planet.

"Yoh! You idiot!" She yelled down at him, holding onto his leg for dear life. Hao watched her struggle with amusement. He knew Yoh was definitely not light and wanted to see how long Anna can hold him. Anna quickly threw her Itako beads around his waist and struggled to pull him up. Although her beads were not that strong, it was strong enough.

"Hey! Anna you saved me!" Yoh yelled while hanging upside down. "See? I knew you liked me." He was grinning wildly, despite the fact that he was hanging upside down and was about to die. Anna's face turned pink.

"Shut up!" She yelled at him.

"Hey!" Yoh yelled. "There is an echo!" He listened to his voice echo back to him and his grin widened. "Yoh is the best!" He yelled, listening to his echo. "Yoh is the coolest! Yoh is the hottest! Yoh is even better then Hao!" He laughed as Anna struggled to pull him up. Hao rolled his eyes. How childish of his brother. Then again, he was only 5 so Hao couldn't blame him for such silliness.

"Anna loves Yoh!" Yoh yelled out. At this, Anna let go of him and Yoh started falling again.

"Ahhhhhhhh!" Yoh yelled out as he fell. Luckily, he landed on Amidamaru who floated back up to where Anna and Hao were waiting. Or... at least he tried to. Since Yoh was pretty much knocked out, he was a bit heavier then before.

"Yoh-Dono! Are you alright?" Amidamaru asked setting Yoh down. The only response Yoh gave him was a snore, a muttered "Funga Fu Fu" and another snore. Everyone sweat dropped, even Hao who shook his head.

"Maybe Keiko did drop Yoh on the head when he was young." He muttered to himself. Anna folded her arms and looked at Yoh with an annoyed face.

"Listen here Asakura Yoh." She yelled shaking him. "I do not like you or Hao, so shut up and leave me alone!" It was no use. Yoh was asleep, busy dreaming of oranges. Hao sighed and shrugged.

"Once he is asleep, you can't get anything to him." He told Anna. "Unless..."

"I don't want to know." Anna told him coldly as she got up and walked off. Hao looked at his brother and back at Anna. Should he follow Anna or should he watch over his brother? Hao looked down at Yoh and smiled. This was too easy... He looked at Anna and then back at Yoh.

"Nah." Hao said cheerfully as he ran after Anna.

End Of Flashback


"Yoh. Yoh." This wasn't really a question but more of a demand as Anna walked through the backyard. She found Yoh asleep on the grass and walked over to him.

"Funga Fu Fu..." Yoh muttered in his sleep. Even till now, Anna still didn't understand why he mutters that but she didn't care.

"Yoh, wake up." Anna shook Yoh.

"Leave me alone..." Yoh mumbled. "I'll wake up in a few minutes Manta." Anna growled.

"I am not Manta Yoh now wake up!" She shook his harder but Yoh wouldn't wake up. She finally decided to go and pour water on him, which to her surprise, didn't wake him up. Anna angrily tapped her foot. Why wouldn't Yoh wake up? Her heart started beating faster all of a sudden. What is Yoh is dead? No, he couldn't be. He was just muttering something in his sleep! He can't be dead! Anna took Yoh's arm and felt his pulse. To her relief, Yoh was still alive but his pulse kind of felt weak. She put Yoh's arm down and decided to leave Yoh alone. So Hao wasn't lying after all...


Flashback

Anna did get too far before Hao caught up with her. She let out a growl and glared at him. He was so annoying. Just like Yoh. Well like they say, Twins think and ARE alike.

"What do you want Asakura?" Anna asked.

"Like I said before. I want you to come with me." Hao told her. "The snow storm is going to hit sooner or later and by the looks of the clouds, they are about to hit." Anna folded her arms.

"If I needed a weather forecast I would be watching the news." She told him. "Now leave or else." Hao raised an eyebrow with amusement.

"I am just curious on what you will do if I don't leave you alone." He challenged her. Anna's glare deepened.

"This." Anna yelled as she flung her arm over, only to be caught by Hao's.

"Nice try." Hao said with a smirk as he twisted Anna's arm behind her, making her gasp in both shock and pain. Anna tried to break free from Hao's grasp but that only made Hao's grip tighten even more. Hao shook her head.

"Silly girl. You are not supposed to move when your arm is behind your back. You might hurt yourself." He whispered in her ear.

"Let go." Anna told his angrily. "If you know what's good for you."

"You are in no position to throw threats dear Anna." Hao told her. As much as Anna hated to admit it, Hao was right. Just then, there was a yell and someone tackled Hao to the floor. Anna plopped down onto the snow and rubbed her arm. It was sore and ached. Anna shivered from the coldness. She had not felt this cold when Hao had held her... But why? She looked up to see Yoh wrestling with Hao.

"Leave her alone!" Yoh yelled at Hao. When did he wake up? Since he was dreaming of oranges... Shouldn't it take him about 2-5 hours to wake up? Hao pushed Yoh off of him.

"She doesn't belong to you Yoh." Hao yelled at his younger brother who was on the floor glaring up at him.

"So? She can at least choose to come with me. You are forcing her to come with you." Yoh yelled pointing a finger at Hao who shrugged.

"The things I want are the things I get." Hao told him and smirked. Yoh glared at Hao.

"You spoiled." He muttered angrily. Hao laughed.

"Using big words now are we?" He asked.

"Shut up!" Yoh yelled at Hao.

"Spell Shut Up." Hao challenged him. Oh how he loves to tease his brother. Yoh blinked and thought for a second.

"S-"Yoh began but was cut off.

"You're wrong." Hao told Yoh and threw a fire ball at him, which Yoh barely dodged.

"Am not! Anna! How do you spell Shut up!" Yoh yelled. Anna glared at Yoh. Why would he be asking her such a stupid question right now?

"You see? You can't even know if you spelled it right or not." Hao said with a smirk, another fire ball appeared on his hand.

"I know I spelled it right. I checked the disionary!" Yoh yelled.

"Its dictionary you dolt!" Anna yelled at Yoh who blinked.

"Yah. D-Dictionary!" Yoh yelled. Hao rolled his eyes.

"Spell dictionary then." Hao muttered. Yoh thought for a minute but he had no idea how to spell dictionary. Instead, he yelled out,

"Spell no!" Yoh glared at his brother and tackled him down again.

"Just leave her alone." Hao didn't seem afraid or seem to show any emotion at all. He just smirked.

"What makes you think I will listen to you Otouto?" He asked Yoh. "What makes you think that she will willingly come with you and willingly like you?"

"I know that she won't be happy with you." Yoh yelled and was about to punch Hao when Hao pushed him off of him. Yoh rolled to the edge of the cliff and hung on to anything for dear life. No he did not want to die yet. He didn't even get to eat his last orange at home!

Hao slowly walked over to Yoh and smirked down at him.

"I wonder how I should kill you..." He said thinking.

"How about just leaving me alone?" Yoh asked hopingly.

"Errr. Wrong answer." Hao told Yoh and was about to step on Yoh's tiny fingers but someone pushed him off the hill. Hao fell but luckily, the SOF saved him. Hao looked up and saw that it was Anna who had pushed him. Anna was glaring at Hao as she helped Yoh up. Yoh gasped for breath as he tumbled down onto the snow, not caring if it was cold or not. Hao let out a small growl. How dare she... Anna glared at Hao and wrapped her itako beads around the SOF's arm, not letting it go. Hao smirked and shook her head. It was a good attempt... But not good enough. The SOF ripped the beads off it, throwing it back at Anna. Hao smirked. "She deserved that one." He thought to himself as he turned his attention back to his twin who was currently exhausted and... well making snow angels in the snow. Hao sweat dropped and shook his head with a sigh. Can't Yoh ever be serious? The only serious time Hao has seen Yoh was just before when they were fighting... That was it...

"Yoh." Hao said looking at his twin who stopped what he was doing and looked up at him. "Don't think you won. If Anna can't be mine, then she can't be yours either." Yoh looked up at Hao.

"What do you mean?" He asked but Hao never answered him. Hao just smirked.

"The next time I see you will be the last time..." That was all little Yoh could remember before blacking out.

He woke up later in his bed. How'd he get there? Yoh looked around the room and noticed that it was his room.

"It's about time you woke up." Yoh turned to see Anna by the door. Yoh smiled.

'Anna! You are ok!" He yelled out and slowly sat up.

"No thanks to you..." She muttered but Yoh didn't hear her.

"So... What happened? All I remember was Aniki telling me something and that was it... And that was back at the mountains." Yoh scratching his aching head. "So what really happened?" Anna shrugged.

"I don't know. I think Hao transported us back because the next thing I know, I was back in my room." She told him. "And the snow storm had hit." Yoh blinked and rushed to the window.

"Wow! Check out the snow!" He yelled. Anna rolled her eyes. Yoh grinned at her and then noticed that she had new itako beads around her neck since Hao had broken hers earlier.

"So you got new ones huh?" Yoh asked as he looked at them. Anna nodded.

"The old ones are right here." Anna lifted her right arm and Yoh saw that Anna had collected a few of the remaining itako beads that were still attached to her old necklace and made a bracelet out of it.

"Cool." Yoh said with a smile and then grabbed his hat. "Now it's time for fun!" He yelled as he rushed out.

"Yoh! Wait!" Anna yelled running after him. Yoh didn't hear her because he was already outside.

"Weeeee!" Yoh jumped and landed in the snow... Well about 3 feet under the snow, so now he was pretty much covered with snow.

"Yoh? Yoh!" Anna looked around but didn't see anyone. All she saw was A LOT of white snow. She then saw a trail and a small hat poking out, still moving. The hat stopped moving when it hit a tree and there was a small yelp of pain. Ann then jumped into the snow and followed after it. It was hard... Walking through snow... She finally found the little trail and followed it. Finally, she found Yoh at the end of the tunnel rubbing his head... And just about covered with snow.

"Yoh, what are you doing?" She demanded. Yoh didn't answer her. He just kept his hands on his head. "Yoh? Yoh answer me!" Yoh shook his head.

"Brain Freeze!" He yelled. Anna rolled her eyes. No wonder he was able to move so quickly. He was eating the snow.

"Ice cream isn't even this cold." Yoh mumbled. Anna took Yoh's hand and pulled him back into the house, muttering how much of an idiot he was and how it was a waste of time saving him.

"Anna, wanna make snowmen later?" Yoh asked with a grinning face.

"No." Anna simply answered and continued dragging the boy.

"So where are we going?" Yoh asked as he grabbed a handful of powder snow and threw it in the air, making it fly along with the wind.

"Kino and Yome have something to say to us." Anna told him.

"Maybe I am getting a puppy!" Yoh yelled out. "Or a whole year supply of oranges!" Anna rolled her eyed. Although she didn't know what it was that they wanted to tell them, those were definitely not it.

"Yoh... It was very brave of you to go after Anna like that." Yome began. "Brave but a very dangerous thing to do. But you have proven yourself strong and have a fighting spirit."

"And so we have decided." Kino continued. "Anna, you have been my very first and best students." Anna nodded.

"Thank you Kino-Sama." She said respectfully.

"It is about time this I arrange this." Kino continued. Anna blinked. Arrange?

"Arrange what?" She asked.

"You are Yoh are now engaged." Kino announced. Anna blinked. No she did not just say that. They all looked at Yoh to see his reaction. Yoh muttered something and fell over.

"Huh? Oh what you say?" He asked. Everyone sweat dropped. It was amazing that Yoh could sleep with his eyes opened. Amazing yet scary at the same time. Kino smacked her cane on Yoh's head. Yoh rubbed his head and sniffed. As usual, he eyes became big and round and started to water.

"That's hurts." He said sniffing.

"Like I said." Kino said tapping her cane. "Yoh, you and Anna are now engaged." Yoh blinked.

"Oh..." He muttered.

"You don't know what engaged means do you?" Yome asked.

"Nope." Yoh stupidly answered. Again everyone sweat dropped and Kino smacked her cane on Yoh's head once more.

"Engaged means to agree to marry..." Anna told him.

"That is engagement Anna but you are correct." Yome told them. Yoh blinked.

"So Anna is my sister?" He asked. This time, it was Anna who smacked him.

"Pay attention you idiot!" She yelled at him. "We are married now."

"No officially but you are arranged to." Kino corrected. Yoh nodded.

"Cool. So we are playing house? Cool! Come on Anna. You can be the mommy and I will be the daddy. Come on! Let's go and play in the snow!" Yoh grabbed Anna's arm and dragged her outside again.

"Yoh! Let go!" Anna yelled.

"Ok, stand still Anna. I'm going to make you into a snowman." Yoh said cheerfully as he dumped snow on her. Anna was starting to lose her temper as she stomped off, dragging Yoh back inside.

"Yoh, read this and don't come out until you are finished. Do you hear me?" She asked throwing a dictionary in Yoh's face.

"Why? I know what engage means." Yoh said as he tried to hold the book in his hands.

"Just do it." Anna told him and walked out of the room. Yoh sighed and opened the over sized book. Well to him it was since he was still oh so small.

"Hmmm... A... First letter of the.. zzzzzzzzz" Yoh fell asleep as soon as he read the letter A. Anna walked back inside the room and smacked Yoh awake, yelling at him to pay attention. Yoh again continued reading. Well skimming. He looked up the word shut up to see if he spelled it right. Yoh smiled when he saw that he had spelled the word correct.

"You see Aniki. I did spell shut up right." He said with a grin and looked out the window. Where ever Hao was, Yoh was sure that he could hear him.

End Of Flashback


"Whoo-Hooo! Par-tay!" Horo Horo yelled lifting his cup of... juice. "Happy Birthday Yoh!" Yoh smiled.

"Thanks Horo. Thank Minna for the party. Where are my presents?" He asked looking around and saw nothing but a basket of oranges on the table. "Ok forget the presents, the oranges are good enough for me." Yoh leaped for the oranges only to smack head first onto the table because Ren pulled the basket out of Yoh's reach.

"You can eat these on your own time." He told Yoh. Yoh made a face at Ren and turned to the others.

"So who wants cake then?" He asked. Horo Horo quickly leaped up.

"I DO!" He yelled and he rushed off to get the cake. A few minutes later, he returned with only half of the cake.

"Horo!" Ren yelled. "Why did you eat half of the cake?"

"I didn't eat it!" Horo Horo yelled back at Ren. "It was like that."

"Whatever, let's just eat!" Yoh yelled as he cut himself and everyone else a slice.

"This vanilla isn't so bad." Ren muttered.

"It's not vanilla cake! It's Chocolate cake!" Horo Horo yelled out. Ren's eyes shifted to Horo Horo.

"But you didn't even eat the cake yet Horo. How can you tell that this is Chocolate cake?" He asked suspiciously. Horo Horo froze and gulped.

"Well... ummm... You see... What happened was..." He thought of an excuse but Ren cut him off.

"What happened was that you are half of the cake and it is not even your cake nor is it your birthday." He said in an obvious tone.

"Hey! It's cake ok! Who can resist cake?" Horo yelled. "You even said it was good." Ren shook his head.

"I only said it so that you would admit that you ate half of the cake, which you did so now I am satisfied." He told Horo who growled.

"Hey Sh-" He was cut off because Ren stuffed a slice of cake into his mouth almost choking poor Horo Horo.

"Be quiet and eat the cake." He commanded and sat back down to eat his slice. Yoh laughed and licked his lips. The cake was good though. Yoh looked up and then looked around. Anna was no where to be found...

It was about 11 or so and Yoh's birthday party was over. Yoh sat in him room looking up at the stars. It was a good day... Well except for his weird dreams he kept having every time he fell asleep. It was like a flashback... But why would he have flashbacks?

"Because you are dieing Otouto." Yoh blinked and looked up to find Hao smirking at him.

"Aniki... What are you doing here?" Yoh asked as Hao jumped into his room.

"Just returning a few things." Hao told Yoh and threw an object at Yoh who caught it. Yoh looked down at the object Hao had thrown at him and gasped.

"Hey! It's my Pikachu doll!" He yelled and smiled.

"See, told you I didn't throw it in the well" Hao teased. Yoh made a face.

"You still took it." He said and smiled. "Now you just owe me my deck of Yu-Gi-Oh cards." Yoh paused. "No. You took them for so long! I want double and a Dark Magician Girl card too." Hao laughed and scratched his head.

"Yah.. about that... The Spirit of Fire thought that they were useless so... he burned them." Hao told Yoh who's mouth fell open.

"Even my Dark Magician card and my Blue Eyes?" He asked. Hao nodded. Yoh let out a small whimper.

"But it took me forever to get them!" He whined.

"Please. Just go to the store and buy Yugi and Kaiba's deck." Hao told him, rolling his eyes. Yoh stuck out his tongue at his twin.

"Well I didn't have to waist any more money if it wasn't for you." He muttered. Hao shrugged.

"Oh well. Be lucky Pikachu isn't on the fried chicken menu." Hao told Yoh who's eyes widened.

"Hey! Pikachu is a mouse!" Yoh yelled.

"Whatever." Hao mumbled.

"Aniki, you are cruel." Hao smiled.

"Thank you Otouto. Nice of you to say that." Yoh sighed.

"So what is this about me dieing?" He asked looking at Hao. "I feel fine." Hao turned to face his brother.

"Do you Yoh? Do you really?" He asked.

"Well... Anna's training is intense." Yoh said with a shrug.

"Yoh..."

"I know... I know I'm dieing Hao..."

"So what are you planning to do?" Hao asked him. He didn't feel sad that his brother way dieing... No not guilty either. He didn't feel anything at all. Yoh shrugged and looked up at the stars.

"Make the best out of what I have left I guess..." He said quietly. Hao nodded and he too, looked up at the stars.

"And plus, you would be happy when I dead wouldn't you?" Hao looked at Yoh. "I mean, when I'm dead, we wouldn't be twins anymore. You would be one of a kind." Hao laughed.

"True, but I will never have anyone to compare myself with." Hao told Yoh. "No one will believe that I am after all the better looking twin." Yoh laughed.

"So why did you come? To return my Pikachu doll back?" Yoh asked. Hao chuckled.

"Remember back when we were young? You made me promise that before we die and all we would see each other one more time and at peace? No fighting or arguing?" Yoh blinked and then nodded.

"Ah... It took me forever to persuade you to promise me that. But I am surprised. You don't keep promises." Hao smiled and shook his head.

"True but you were dam annoying and well, since you are my Otouto..." Yoh smiled.

"Sank You." Yoh put his Pikachu doll in Hao's arms. Hao blinked. "Keep it. I want you to keep it. You know... To remember me by when I'm... You know... gone." For the first time, Hao didn't know what to say.

"Just say that you will take good care of it for me and watch over Anna ok?" It was like Yoh could read Hao's mind. Well you know what they say. Twins look and think alike right? Hao stared at his brother for a while before smiling.

"Ah... I will Otouto." He said as he held Yoh's Pikachu doll.

"So how long do I have left?" Yoh asked. Hao looked at Yoh again.

"You are asking me that question?" He asked and Yoh nodded.

"Remember? You are Asakura Hao. you know EVERYTHING" Yoh quoted the word Everything with his fingers making Hao laugh.

"Well, I'd say you have until... 12." Hao told him in a rather quiet tone. Yoh looked at the clock next to his bed. It read 11:30. He had an half hour left... Yoh sighed.

"It was a good life..." He said quietly. Hao cocked at eye.

"Anna's brutal training is a good life?" He asked Yoh who laughed.

"Well in a way. It did help me become Shaman King." He pointed out.

"I guess." Hao said with a shrug as he got up. "Take care Otouto." Hao said with a smile. Yoh smiled warmly back at his twin.

"Ah. You too. And remember. Take care of Pikachu for me and Anna as well as yourself." Hao laughed.

"You don't need to tell me that. But then again, maybe I should throw Pikachu back into the well with that girl from The Ring. It would so less worry for me." Yoh's mouth dropped.

"Aniki! You wouldn't dare!" He yelled but then paused. "Wait... That would mean Pikachu would be on TV." Hao rolled his eyes and Yoh laughed.

"Well.. Nice to see you one last time." Yoh said with a smile.

"Ah..." Hao walked over to Yoh and placed a soft kiss on his forehead. "I'll miss you, Otouto." With that, he disappeared.

Yoh sighed and looked up at the stars again. He smiled up at them. It was a nice night tonight. He heard a let out a small sigh as he climbed into bed. She should be here soon... He thought quietly. As if on time, Anna quietly and slowly walked into Yoh's room.

"What did he say?" She asked him.

"Just our good-byes and all." Yoh simply told her.

"I see..." Anna walked over to Yoh and sat down next to him. Yoh smiled.

"Remember when we were young and you use to slap me and tell me to die?" He asked Anna who took his hand. "Well I guess I really am going." Anna's eyes looked hurt but she didn't let the tears fall. She knew that Yoh know that she didn't mean it but it really pained her.

"Don't say that Yoh... You aren't going to die." She said trying to hide her worried/sad/crying tone. They both knew that she was only trying to stay strong for the both of them. It was only a matter of time before Yoh leaves their world. Yoh smiled.

"It's ok Anna. Really. You don't have to always be strong. Sometimes... Being strong isn't good." He told her. He suddenly felt tired and he knew it was time. He looked into Anna's eyes.

"Sank You Anna. For making me shaman king and all. Sank You." Yoh looked up at the ceiling. "Be sure to tell the others thanks too.. You know, for being there for me and all. And thank Manta for everything." Anna nodded as she listened; tears forming in her eyes. Yoh let out a small sigh and looked at Anna one last time.

"Ashiteru Anna..." Yoh said quietly. Anna fought back her tears.

"Ashiteru... Yoh." She whispered, a small smile appearing on her face. Yoh smiled at her. She was pretty when she smiled. Very pretty. It was nice... His last image was the one he loved so very much... It was Anna... Smiling...

A single tear fell from Anna's eyes as Yoh's eyes slowly closed and his breathing stopped. The clock next to his head read... 12:00. From outside, not so far away, stood Hao. In his hands was the Pikachu doll that Yoh gave to Hao. Hao had a small frown on his face but then he smiled and looked down at the doll. "Don't worry Otouto... I will keep my promise... I'll take good care of Pikachu and Anna for you..." Hao looked up at the stars. One of the stars shined brighter then the rest and Hao knew that it was Yoh smiling down at him. "I'll miss you Otouto... We all will..."


Oh god... I am actually crying while I am typing this... No joke. I can not believe that I am crying while writing my own story... This is so sad... That's it. I don't want to write no more FanFics with someone dieing at the end. It's too sad... It was sweet of Hao to bring back the Pikachu doll back to Yoh and how Anna admits that she loves Yoh... Took me a while to plan that out and to type it because it was so hard to see through the tears in my eyes. Sorry but I can't proofread this... It's too sad and I will start crying again. The flashback kind of sucks but I can't type no more. It's too sad and I am still crying... Thanks everyone for the reviews. Be sure to give me some reviews on this one too... I really need them to stop crying.
