Acceptance

Final Chapter

Disclaimer: I don't own it.


Hao had had a dream the night before. He had never had visions, and only believed in the kind of visions Tamao would have from time to time. But the dream he had was definitely a vision, or a message perhaps. Either way, it could not be ignored, he had one shot and he would make it count.

"Macchi…" whispered Hao as he tightened his grip on her old broom, and hidden in the hollow wood were the pieces of Jack, it was like having a piece of Macchi with him always.

"Hao! Wait!" yelled Yoh's voice. Hao was at the border of Funbari, he turned around and grinned slightly.

"Well otouto, look's like your wife's training has not been for nothing…" chuckled Hao darkly.

"You… Come… Back here…" muttered Anna, panting, while Yoh tilted his head.

"Funny, this was nothing compared to the usual jogs you make me do…" said Yoh curiously as Anna fell on the ground.

"Well why didn't you ever tell me it was this tiring?" snapped Anna. Yoh shrugged.

"I think I did… In the beginning…" While the wedded couple talked, Hao slowly tried to escape.

"The elder Asakura is escaping!" yelled Kouki.

"Our former master is escaping!" added Zenki.

"Cursed shikigami…" muttered Hao under his breath.

"Now then Hao, why don't you want to stay?" questioned Yoh.

"Last night…" said Hao slowly. "I had a weird dream. The Hanagumi talked to me, it was all foggy, but their spirits are at their graves. Supposedly, I wanted to go see if it's true."

"So what?" asked Yoh dryly, still staring at Anna, who was finally catching her breath. "Without me there you can't bring them back to life."

Hao blinked. He hadn't thought that far ahead.

"Oh yeah…" said Hao nervously, scratching the back of his head. "Well, then let's go otouto."

"Wait…" muttered Anna. She swirled her beads around and chanted under her breath, before wrapping them around Zenki. He glowed after Anna pulled the beads away, and Zenki looked around anxiously.

"Oh my aching head…" Zenki looked at Anna. "You. You… You were the one that brainwashed me and made me emotionless! How dare you?"

"What did you do…?" asked Hao slowly.

"I released him from my control. Meet your new spirit partner…" replied Anna. Hao grinned just as the red shikigami turned in his direction.

"Hao-sama! It is you!" Zenki jumped in the air and hovered in front of his new partner. "Hao-sama, she is a torturous woman… She does evil things with your brother at night, evil…"

Zenki twitched, and Yoh and Anna blushed, while Hao laughed.

"Well then, Zenki, Yoh? Let's go!"

And with that, Yoh, Amidamaru, Hao, and Zenki set off on a new adventure, so save the two girls that were like sisters to Hao, and the one he loved more then life.


The End

As of no there is NO sequel in the works. Just assume there is a happy ending until I get back into Shaman King.
