The next morning, Ponchi and Conchi (Tamao's spirits) was sweeping the entrance when they saw Anna leave. It was a very unearthly hour to leave.
"Miss Anna," said Ponchi. "Where are you going?"
Anna didn't reply and continued walking. Ponchi and Conchi looked at each other. They both shrugged and continued working.
Tamao woke up after Anna left. She, too, was wondering why Anna would leave so early. 'Everybody is still asleep. The grocery's still closed. Why would she leave this early?'
Anna stopped walking when she entered the park. She looked around and saw no one.
"What do you want with me?" Anna asked loudly.
The wind rustled and blew around her. The wind formed a human-like shape. It was a human spirit of a girl her age.
The spirit answered, "I want you, Anna Kyoyama. I want your body."
Anna can see her clearly now. She has long black hair and brown eyes. She was dressed in white. Then, Anna noticed an Oracle Bell on the spirit's left arm.
"You are a shaman that died during the Shaman Fight. Why did you call me?" Anna asked.
The spirit smiled. "Yes. I am a shaman. All I want is your body so that I could live again."
Anna answered annoyingly, "You can't take my body. I'm a spirit medium not a shaman so I can't fuse with you. You woke me up in an unearthly hour just to tell me that?"
"Anna, Anna," The spirit shook her head. "Have you forgotten that I'm a shaman? I can kill you, if you won't cooperate. I can fuse with you unwillingly."
Anna took a few steps back, holding the 1080 around her neck. She put it back together after the Shaman Fight.
"You want to fight with me?" The spirit asked.
Anna removed the 1080 and placed it around the spirit. But the spirit was fast and jumped inside Anna's body. The spirit took over her body and laughed menacingly.
Suddenly, back at the house/hot spring, Yoh suddenly woke up. "Anna!"
His remark woke everybody in the room – Horo Horo, Ren, Lyserg, Manta, and Ryu. Their power spirits appeared too.
Amidamaru asked, "Master, is there anything wrong?"
Yoh just kept the scared expression on his face. "Anna. Something happened to Anna."
Anna, not the real Anna, opened the door. She said sweetly, "Yoh! I heard you scream. Is there anything wrong?"
All of them looked surprised at Anna. Anna never spoke to Yoh sweetly. Usually, she spoke to Yoh coldly.
Yoh smiled. "Nah. Sorry to worry you."
Anna smiled and said, "Well, I'll make breakfast then. See you guys within 15 minutes tops."
Yoh's smile turned into a frown. He looked at Amidamaru. Then, he looked at his friends.
"That wasn't like Anna at all, Yoh. Maybe that's a sign." Horo Horo said.
Yoh asked, "A sign?"
Horo Horo nodded, "It's a sign that she wants something. That's why she's being nice."
Yoh shook his head. "No, I think it's something different. I feel like it's not Anna at all."
Amidamaru answered, "I felt a different presence when she came in."
Ren agreed, "I felt it too. I felt something bad when she came in."
Manta said, "We're not sure of that you know."
Lyserg nodded, "I guess that it was just the way she showed concern for Yoh. I mean, she never did that before. But after last night's wedding talk, I guess she's showing signs that she wants Yoh to ask her to get married."
Ryu answered, "Lyserg's right."
Ren looked at him. "What made you so sure that he's right?"
Ryu got hold of Lyserg's head. "Is this the face of a person that would lie to you?"
Ren just shrugged and walked out of the room. His power spirit, Bason followed him.
Horo Horo said, "I guess we should go downstairs and eat."
They all agreed and started to clean up the room. After that, they went downstairs. They can't wait to taste Anna's cooking.
At the dining room, Faust and Eliza was there already. Eliza was spoon-feeding Faust like a sick kid.
"Good morning." Yoh said.
Faust and Eliza nodded. Then, Eliza continued spoon-feeding Faust.
Millie came in after the group of boys sat down. "Good morning, Lyserg!"
Ryu ran with open arms toward Millie. But Millie avoided him and pushed Manta who was sitting beside Lyserg.
"Ouch. That hurts you know." Manta remarked with a sad expression on his face.
Millie ignored him and kept hugging Lyserg. Ryu turned into stone once again upon seeing Millie and Lyserg.
Pirika got out of the kitchen to serve their pancakes. Anna was holding the plates with the forks and bread knifes. Tamao was holding the syrup and butter.
Upon seeing the food, Ryu got back to life and helped Tamao with the syrup. "I bet you made this with all your love for me, Tamao."
Tamao answered back, "Ryu, we don't make syrup. We buy syrup from the grocery."
Ryu, downcast, sat down with silence while Anna place the china in front of them. After Anna placed the plates, Pirika would place two pancakes on each place. Then, Tamao placed the butter and syrup on the middle of the table.
"Thank you." Yoh said.
Anna and the others smiled and headed back to the kitchen. They still have a few more customers.
After breakfast, Ryu left on his bike. He was still heartbroken from the events.
Lyserg and Millie left together. Lyserg had no intention of taking Millie with him. It's just that Millie kept following him. He was afraid that people will look at them suspiciously.
Manta left too after breakfast. He still has a lot of office work to do.
Manta said, "I can't promise that I would return but I'll try." Then, he waved good-bye to Yoh.
Horo Horo and Pirika left too. Horo Horo needed help to plant more coltsfoot/butterbur at their hometown.
Horo Horo asked, "Anna, can Pirika take a vacation leave for just a week? I need her to help me plant more coltsfoot/butterbur."
Anna answered, "Sure. As long as it is just for a week."
After that, Pirika packed her clothes. After that, they left the hot spring.
Yoh saw them off. He too was getting ready to leave when Anna suddenly kissed him on his cheek. Yoh looked at Anna surprisingly.
"Good luck with your work." Anna said and then walked back in.
Yoh didn't make any reply. He just looked at Anna, getting inside. Then, Anna looked at him. "Did you forget anything?"
Yoh shook his head and walked on. He was still puzzled about Anna's actions.
'Being worried about me so easily. Kissing me before leaving. Those are sure weird changes.' Yoh thought as he walked in his shop.
