Chapter one: the scary letter of DOOM!

It was a normal day at Yoh Askaura's place. Well as normal as it can get with an inn full of shamans and spirits. The shaman fight had been over for a few months but everyone still stayed with Yoh and Anna. No one really gave a reason. They just never had the thought of going back

"YOH! Go get the mail or I'll add 20 laps to your training!" Hollered Anna. Even though the shaman fight was over Anna still had Yoh training every day claiming that otherwise he'd just get lazy and fat.

"All right"… Yoh sighed never a break with HER around. Yoh sifted through the mail on his way back to the house "junk, junk, bills, letter for Horokue Usui…wait…HORO" he hollered "MAIL!"

"Huh? For me?" Horo jogged over to Yoh followed closely by Pilika who happened to be holding a whip 'if Yoh still has to train so do you!' she had said.

Yoh handed him the letter as Horo jogged in place…his eyes scanned the letter…he stopped jogging and whispered "oh no."

"What is it? What happened?" said a slightly concerned Yoh. But horo wasn't listening his mind was somewhere else as he fell to his knees and reread letter over and over letting the devastating news sink in.

Horo suddenly got up and bolted to the inn, up the stairs and into his bedroom and locked the door.

As fate would have it, Ren whose training room just happened to be next door heard the door slam and became slightly worried. He shrugged it off and continued training. 'This isn't like me' he thought to himself 'since when did I get so worked up over an idiot slamming a door!' after a while he became aware of some sort of commotion happening next door. This is what he heard.

"Leave me alone!" a voice that could possibly belong to Horo-horo said in a somewhat shaky tone.

"Horo I'm your sister! I deserve to know what's going on!" another voice obviously pilika confirmed that the other voice was indeed horo.

A pause then the sound of a door opening and closing and then muffled yelling which faded to what sounded like sobs though through the thick walls could have been laughing or talking. Then. Nothing. Ren got slightly worried and went out to find Yoh. Maybe he knew what was going on.

Ren found Yoh outside eating oranges

"Asakura!"

"hmm?"

"You wouldn't happen to know what's wrong with Horo and Pilika would you."

"No. Though whatever that letter said it was obviously bad news. Horo seemed shocked and… well devastated really. Maybe you should talk to him.

"Hmm" Ren? Talking to horo in a civilized manner…nah "I was thinking you could try and tal…

Yoh interrupted him "no Anna said you should talk to him. She says that I have to stay outta this one."

Me? Why me?

"I really wasn't listening she said something about you finding your other half or some sappy crap like that," Yoh yawned anyway I'm gonna find my other third" he winked and strolled out to the park across the street. He looked up and said something into a tree and then sat down and leaned against it.

That was…strange thought Ren as he walked up back to the house only to find horo and pilika eyes red and swollen, and apparently trying to sneak out as they had all their stuff packed. They stopped in their tracks when they spotted Ren

"Where the fuck do you think you're going!" Ren half yelled at them.

"Home?" horo offered in a surprisingly small and shaky voice.

"What do you mean 'home'!" ren really was yelling now "WHY!"

Ren…our…our mother died in a vehicle explosion…we…we're going to her funeral and the police asked us to help investigate the cause of the explosion…the X-laws…are there…they think H-hao w-was involved.

"If you don't mind we're LEAVING!" Shouted a very distressed pilika. She shouldered her way past Ren followed by horo, who muttered a quick "scuse me" and they started toward the train station.

"Horo! Wait!" Whispered ren so that only Horo could hear. "Are you coming back?"

Horo was surprised by the disappointed tone in Ren's voice "I don't know Ren I just don't know." With that he left a surprised, confused, and slightly teary-eyed Ren behind

short chapter I know

MWAHAHAHAHAHA my first /real/ fanfic on Don't I feel special:P please review even if just to tell me I suck.

Also just to warn you I am the QUEEN of ALL cliffhangers! (Even the blind idiot who is currently hanging off a cliff RIGHT NOW!)

What does Anna mean by 'half' and what does Yoh mean by 'third' who or what are his 'thirds'

Was Hao REALLY involved in the explosion? Why is ren sad? Why do all my characters seem so ooc? Or is it just me? HAH! I made a rhyme. I am easily amused ooh look a piece of paper!

WHERE is the rest of the gang? WHO KNOWS! I'm just to lazy to add them in right now. For now you can all just assume that Manta's at school and Faust is working on doctor stuff and so on and so forth

Oh and Chuck my evil gender confused beaver of doomy doom doom says HI to EVERYONE! (yes he will be making an appearance)
