Chapter 8

Field Trip part one

A few weeks had passed and Anna's leg was completely healed. Hana was at school and Lare was watching "the soap opera" with Anna.

"This is so romantic..." Lare said.

"This is so lame..." Anna replied with an expressionless look on her face.

"Hey...you're the one who wanted to watch this show in the first place..." Lare was too busy watching "the soap opera" to notice that Anna was walking to her room.

"I'm going inside." Anna told Lare.

"Whatever..." Lare replied.

Anna went inside her room and decided to lie down for awhile.

-Three hours later-

"Anna! I'm gonna go pick up Hana!!!" Lare shouted.

"Sure!!!" Anna woke up from her sleep when she heard Lare yelling.

"I better fix my hair so incase someone comes."

-Five minutes later-

"MOMMY!!!!!!!" Hana shouted so that the whole house shook.

"Did you have fun at school?" Anna came out of her room with her hair tied on the front of both sides with her bangs down.

"Ya....Can you sign this piece of paper?" Hana handed a paper that had writings on it.

"What is it?" Anna started to read the paper.

"We're gonna go on a field trip next week." Hana replied.

"Where are you going?" Anna asked while signing the paper.

"We're going to...we're going to....we're going to this huge house. The teacher said that we were going to meet a famous person and get to see his house and everything.

"Sounds like fun." Anna smiled at her son than handed him the paper.

"It is!!!" "I heard from the big kids at our school talking about it."

"Well...you better get washed up then go do your homework." Anna gently pushed him toward the restroom.

"Okay!!!" Hana scrubbed his hands together with soap. Then he went to his room and got out his bag and started doing his homework.

-Meanwhile...-

Yoh was done taking his bath after the three hour training when someone knocked on the door.

"Who is it???!!!" Yoh got dressed then went to the door to see who it was.

"Hey Yoh!"

"What are you doing back here?" Yoh asked getting angry already.

"Why to see you of course!" Angela gave him a smile then started to head inside when Yoh blocked her.

"You can't go inside." Yoh said blocking the door with his arm stretched wide.

"You can't behave like this to your fiancée, now can you?" Angela said to Yoh with a smirk.

"Yes he can 'cause your not his fiancée." Tamao said from behind.

"Ya...the only fiancée Yoh has is Anna." Ren said then looked up at Yoh with a small smile.

"Oh yeah?! Then where is she?" Angela asked with the same smirk on her.

"Well...she's...she's..." Pilica wanted to tell a lie but was interrupted by Ren.

"SHE RAN AWAY BECAUSE OF ME!!! THERE???!!!!" Ren started getting mad.

"Oh and why is that?" Angela seemed to enjoy making them mad and decided to keep it up.

"I-" Ren started to yell again but was interrupted by Yoh.

"It's none of your business and stop acting so nosy in other people's business!" Yoh yelled at her than went inside. The others followed him inside and left Angela outside by herself.

"Fine...have it your way than..." Angela said then turned around to leave.

-Yoh-

Yoh walked inside to get a drink when the phone rang.

"Hello?" Yoh answered the phone trying to act calm.

"Yoh. It's me Kino. I need you to come to the shrine now."

"Are you making me come so I can meet another girl you chose?" Yoh asked ignoring the order that his grandmother made.

"No...Yohmei and I have to talk to you about something." Kino said grumpily.

"Fine..." Yoh hung up then ran up the stairs toward his room to change from his training clothes.

"This better be good." Yoh muttered to himself while changing.

"I'M GOING OUT!!!" Yoh shouted running downstairs.

"OKAY!!!" Horo Horo shouted back.

Yoh ran toward the train station with Amidamaru.

"Two...I mean one ticket to Izumo please." Yoh sighed.

"Still thinking about Miss Anna?" Amidamaru asked.

"I guess..." Yoh took the tickets and headed toward the train.

"Let's go Amidamaru." They got on the train and found an empty seat next to the window.

-Forty-five minutes later-

"We're here Yoh! YOH!" Amidamaru shouted to his sleeping friend.

"I'm awake!" Yoh and Amidamaru got off and headed toward the huge shrine.

-At the shrine-

"You think Yoh will get mad for not telling him?" Yohmei asked his wife.

"I'm not sure...but Yoh doesn't get mad easily." Kino replied.

"You are right."

"GRANDMA!!! GRANDPA!!!!"

"That must be Yoh." Kino said getting up.

"How much time do we have to tell you not to yell?" Kino said walking to his grandson.

"What do you want to talk about?" Yoh asked ignoring his grandmother's question again.

"Well...we agreed to an elementary school in Otsumi to come here for a field trip." Kino stated.

"Yeah...so what does that have to do with me?" Yoh asked.

"We agreed to let them meet the shaman king and-"

"Hey, you never told me about this." Yoh interrupted.

"We know and we're sorry but it's for their education, Yoh." Yohmei said with a calm look.

"Well...what will I have to do?" Yoh asked.

"The only thing you will need to do is explain about the shamans, shaman fight, and what a shaman king has to do. You will also answer any questions they have." Kino replied.

"That sounds easy. I'll do it then." Yoh smiled his goofy smile and said his goodbyes.

-Back to Anna-

"Hana, do you need any help?" Anna asked coming in quietly trying not to disturb him.

"Hana?"

Hana was sleeping with his head down on the table.

Anna smiled and carried him toward the bed.

Anna walked over to Hana's desk to find his homework uncompleted but decided to check it.

Hana's homework:

What would you wish for if you could have just one wish?

I wish to have a daddy like everyone else. I wish to have a dad who will love me and my mom and take care of us. I will like to be able to brag that I have a dad who will take me to school in the morning and pick me up. I will like to be able to play with him and go to fun places and

Anna felt tears in her eyes. She tried forcing the tears back but the tears refused. It slowly ran down her cheek then dropped to the carpet.

"I'm so sorry Hana...I'm real sorry..." Anna whispered then rubbed the tears away with her arm.

She went out of the room and gently closed the door behind her.

"Anna can you help me with lunch?" Lare asked.

"Sure..." Anna walked toward Lare and started to chop the carrots. She kept her head down, trying to hide the dried tear stains on her cheeks.

"Here you fill the pot with water and I'll do the chopping." Lare switched spots with Anna, not noticing her head was down.

-Back to Yoh-

Yoh was heading toward the inn when he spotted a kid about 5 crying. He walked over to the boy and asked him why he was crying.

"I don't know where my mommy and daddy went." the boy said sobbing.

"Where do you live?" Yoh asked the boy.

"I live in a blue house with a swimming pool." the boy replied.

"I think I know where you just might live." Yoh started to lead the boy down the street toward the house. There was police cars and a huge crowd.

"Ummm...Miss? Is this your son?" Yoh asked a woman talking to a police man,

holding the boy by his hand.

"CHRIS!!! YOU'RE ALRIGHT!!!" the woman ran to the boy and hugged him tight.

"MOMMY!!!" the boy shouted as the woman hugged his son.

"Who are you?" the police man asked Yoh.

"Well I-" Yoh was interrupted by the boy.

"He helped me find my way back here!" the boy shouted to the police.

"Oh...you saved my boy!" the woman invited Yoh to come and have some tea but Yoh said, "My friends are waiting back at my house. I'm so sorry but I have to go." Yoh told them then ran off.

"That was close..." Yoh went inside the inn to find his friends all in the living room laughing and talking.

"Hey you guys...wassup?" Yoh joined the circle and started to talk about what his grandparents said.

"REALLY???!!!" they all exclaimed at once.

"Yup...so can you guys help me?" Yoh asked with a small smile.

"What do you mean can we help you, OF COURSE WE'LL HELP!!!" Horo Horo shouted then looked at everyone who was nodding.

"Ha! Thanks guys!" Yoh went up his room to change back into his training clothes.

"I'm going to be running some laps outside. Be back in an hour or so!" Yoh told his friends then ran out of his room.

"I'll be coming with you Yoh..." Amidamaru floated toward Yoh's side as he started to jog.
