Hello again all you good people! I know, me was mean to put Yoh in pain, but hey, who doesn't? Thanks for all the reviews! I got my fillings today. Me had cavities. DIE CAVITIES! I SHALL KILL YOU! MUAHAHAHAHA! Ahem-sorry…me was very numb! Could not feel my chin, tongue, lips, or teeth! Accidentally bit on my lips and tongue, but did not notice until afterwards…Note: If you ever get fillings (Best not to even get cavities though), DO NOT attempt to cause pain to yourself just cuz you cannot feel, cuz it'll all come back later to haunt you…Anyways…on with da chappy!

Me Sorry for a bad cliffie. Me know people HATE cliffies and me also know there are too many car cliffies. Sorry Pendulumxswing for doing car cliffie, sorry Woon Fung and Prozacfairy for just doing cliffie. Well, I dno. Should I say he got beat up? I didn't think that'd work since…u know. Should me say he was poisoned? Er..me didn't wanna poison Yoh! He had heart attack? No…Yoh not old. Yoh got abducted by aliens? Last time I checked, aliens were NOT part of Shaman King, and I absolutely HATE alien stories. Too stupid. He tripped over his sandals and fell off a cliff? Sigh Any better ideas?

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT own Shaman King. If I did, well, I wouldn't spend my time on FanFiction would I? Nooo, I'd be creating more episodes of it! (I do wish there were more episodes of it though…)

Apologies and Confessions

Anna stood there in shock.

"Miss Anna? Anna? Are you- Are you alright?" Tamao asked with a worried expression on her face.

"Wh-What d-d-did you say h-happened?" Anna swallowed and questioned again trying hard not to cry.

"Yoh, he-he was in an accident…he-he is in p-pretty bad shape…"

With that, Anna fainted.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

It was an autumn morning. The colorful leaves rustled and fell as they passed. They were walking across a little bridge over a small pond. Anna was leaning over the rail of the bridge. She leaned over a little too far, and plunged into the water. "Hwelp! Somewon! Pwease help me! I-I can't swim!" she cried struggling hard to keep afloat. Yoh heard this, took off his headphones and jacket, and dived into the water. The little five year old brunette could not swim very well, but it did not matter to him. Yoh reached Anna and pulled her close. "Don't wowwy Anna, I pwomise I won't let you drwown!" He pulled her ashore and collapsed onto the ground panting. Anna shivered violently. The wind was harsh. "H-Here An-na! T-t-take m-my j-j-jack-cket!" He stuttered as he fetched his jacket to wrap around Anna's frail body. "B-B-But a-aren't you c-c-cold?" Anna shivered. "Nah…I'll be fine…"Yoh hugged her closer. "Thank You…Yoh…"

Yoh…

"Yoh!" Anna sprang up from her bed. Around her were Tamao, Pirika, and Jeanne. All with wearing worried expressions. "Where's Yoh!" Anna demanded, trying to sound cold and harsh, which was failing greatly since she could not hide the fact that she was deeply worried.

The three girls looked at each other and Pirika slowly answered. "Yoh…Yoh's at the h-hosp-pital, Miss Anna…" Jeanne, upon rehearing the situation, immediately began praying again.

Anna looked around and noticed none of the others were there. "Where's everyone else?"

"The boys are all with Yoh. Don't worry. We've all been excused form classes today due to the…" Pirika's voice trailed off as she was focusing on Anna's reaction.

Anna did not say anything. Nor did she show any expression. She grabbed her book bag, beads, put on her shoes, and ran out the door.

"Anna! Wait! Wh-Where are you going!" Pirika cried as she followed Anna out the door with a sense of panic.

"I'm so sorry, Yoh…This is all my fault…Please, don't leave me…I need you…If you do not live, I do not know what I'll do, nor if I can ever forgive myself…Please…" Anna quickly walked out of the school, towards the Funbari Hospital as a single tear trickled down her pale face.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

"Anna…" Yoh ached all over. His head, his shoulders, his back, his lef. "Wh…What…Happened?" Anna…where are you?" He blinked, and slowly opened his eyes. Around him stood Hao, Manta and Lyserg. On the chairs were Ren and Horo Horo.

"Yoh! Yoh's awake! Guys!" Manta pointed at Yoh and jumping up and down like an excited little kid off to Disney World for the first time.

Immediately, all five boys were crouched over Yoh.

"Dude? Yoh? You alright? What exactly happened?" Horo Horo asked anxiously.

"Wha? What happened? I don't-know either…" Yoh was still not yet fully awake and was having trouble trying to remember the past event.

"Well, all we know is what the local witnesses saw. They say they saw a young boy walking across the street. They said that the boy looked really focused. All of a sudden, a speeding car took a sharp turn and…" Horo Horo trailed off as Ren sent him an evil glare.

"I…barely remember…I was pit walking and-" Yoh stopped as the memory came back to him like a huge tidal wave. He had gone out walking because Anna threw an awful fit. Anna seemed to hate him. He must've been thinking too much and didn't even notice, "I'm sorry Anna…" Once again, he trailed off into another deep and troubling sleep.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

"Yoh!" Anna cried as she barged open the door panting and sweating. On her whole way here, she had not stopped even one second to take a breather. There was only one thing on her mind. Yoh. Her eyes wandered around the room, to the five boys standing around the bed, onto the limp figure lying on the bed. "Yoh!" she cried again and rushed over.

"Anna…" Yoh weakly called with his eyelids fluttering. Hao knew what was to come next and motioned for everyone to give them a little privacy. Horo Horo as usual just stood there without a clue until Ren yanked him by the ear and dragged him out the door.

Anna kneeled down beside the bed holding Yoh's cold hand next to her cheek, trying hard not to burst out crying and overwhelming the injured Shaman King.

"Anna…" Yoh smiled weakly, turning his head with pain to face Anna as a tear rolled down his cheek. "You-You r-really d-do care…"

"Of COURSE I do, BAKA!" Anna burst into tears, shouting through a quavering voice. (learned that word (quavering) during class! I can't believe I actually payed attention. I think it may have been the one time I ever did…) "And d-don't you EVER f-f-forget it or EVER s-scare me l-like that EVER again! Do you h-hear!"

Yoh weakly smiled again. "It's a done deal then, Anna…"

Then he went limp.

"NO!" Anna shrieked with her eyes widening in fear. "You c-can't! You're n-not! Please! No! D-don't leave me!" Anna choked through hsobs, begging. "I-I love you! I always have! But, I never knew, if..you loved me…" Her voice fell into an eerie silence as she looked over to Yoh and went into a trace. What the Ice Queen did not know however, was that Yoh was still awake and had heard this. He smiled a little. "Thank you Anna…now I know…I've always loved you, but I didn't know that you loved me…I'm sorry for ever doubting you…please…forgive me." He smiled a little more as he thought what her reaction would be once she found out. Had he been in perfect shape, Anna would surely give him a harsh punishment. With that, he drifted off into a peaceful dream…

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

"Anna…Anna…" a voice softly called.

"Yoh!" Anna bolted right up. She was on the couch in Yoh's room. She looked over to Yoh's bed, and fear overtook her senses. Yoh's bed. Empty. "Yoh!" Anna cried frantically searching for Yoh asif he might be playing Hide-And-Seek with her and be hiding under the bed.

"Anna! No! Stop!" Hao shouted as he grabbed hold of Anna's arm. "This is NOT the time to be panicking and running about." His expression was grave. He sighed, relaxed a little, and continued. "My ototo is in the surgery room, Anna. The doctor said that the accident has caused damage to one of the major blood vessels. (WAAHH! I can't really think of a good surgery reason! Sniff! Sniff! I should've payed more attention in Science class when we talked about the respiratory and circulatory systems instead of dozing off! But you can't blame me…kinda…Well, if you have better ideas, tell me pleaz! That was me original message. Now, thanx to '-'Simple-Female'-', I change to artery/blood vesselblockage. Sorry, if blood vessel burst, well, depending on which one, he would die.Unless miracle occur. Oops...I just told...ah well...of course me no kill Yoh!But thanx '-'Simple-Female'-'!) Right now, it is still functioning, but it might not hold that way. If the blood vessel cannot function properly, and there is a severe blockage, well, then, he might… If this happens…you know. Anyways. They are fixing the valve so it can work properly, or else…" Hao looked at Anna and put his hands on her shoulder. "Look, you are my ototo's fiancé and I know you love him a lot and he loves you a lot. My ototo needs you to be with him in spirit. Not panicking. So please, Anna…"

Anna calmed down a bit. "H-How's the operation going?"

"We don't know. We can only do one thing."

"Wh-What's that?"

"Wait."

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Heh…there…not TOO much of a cliffhanger, right? Okay…anyways…operation idea? Any doctors here? Thanx '-'Simple-Female'-' for blood vessel idea! Well, please R R and R! Thnx! Me will continue…
