Last Precious Moments

The Study Hall was silent, yet it was filled with whispers flying from the twenty some students that wandered crowdedly through the room. (Did I mention? Study Hall like Gryffindor Common Room…fireplace, though not on seeing as it is summer or so), sofas, couches, desks, rugs…)

Some sat on the sofa, some on the couches, some sat slumping on the desks, and some lay sprawling across the soft carpet rugs.

"Manta!" Yoh cried as he squeezed his way through the large number of people to reach the midget, careful not to step on anyone's hands or legs.

Manta looked up from his position on the floor. Poor Manta. He had to crane his head HIGH just to see Yoh's face.

"Hey Yoh."

Yoh looked around with his eyebrows raised. "What's everyone doing here? I never thought the Study Hall became a popular hangout place…" He then stroked his chin thoughtfully, frowning as if trying to calculate a math problem.

"Well, if I'M not mistaken, the exams are coming up in about A WEEK, so I thought that maybe everyone here is…well…perhaps, STUDYING!" Manta asked innocently.

Yoh's eyes lit up. "Hey! You're right Manta!" Yoh slapped his forehead. "How stupid of me? I should've known! Hehehe!" He laughed innocently.

Manta rolled his eyes. "Oh yes Yoh, How could YOU possibly be so STUPID?"

"Because I am?" Yoh asked confusedly, scratching the back of his neck. "I thought you ALWAYS criticized me on THAT, Manta…"

Manta rolled his eyes again. "I was being SARCASTIC, Yoh!"

"Hai..wait…what's sarcastic mean?" Yoh asked again scratching his head.

Manta collapsed. "Urgh…Yoh…"

"Anyways…I need your help, Manta." Yoh said becoming serious again.

Manta got up recovering. "Don't you always. What is it this time?" He folded his arms suspiciously.

Yoh sighed and began turning red. He scratched his head, "Well, you see…it-its…well…its not what….what I need is…I just…um…er…I-…I needyouto… helpmepickout…a…a…presentforAnna…"

Manta blinked."Why?"

Yoh sighed again and turned his back to Anna. "Anna's leaving the day after tomorrow, Manta…I-…I want her…to…well….the point is, I want her to have something like a…a…you know…a…p-parting gift…"

Manta stared. "Oh Yoh, Anna isn't going to leave forever, it's just-"

"I know! But you…you don't know…" He turned to face Manta, frowning. "You don't know how it feels…having to say good-bye…she's going to leave for a long time. Its…nevermind…look. Could you just help me pick out a present?"

Manta looked at Yoh in awe. He's never seen Yoh so serious since the day he battled with Hao during the tournament.

Yoh, suddenly realizing what he said to his friend, immediately apologized. "I-I'm sorry Manta. I….don't know why I said that….well, I-I'll leave you to your work then." Then he left.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

"What AM I going to buy her?" Yoh thought frowning as he quickened his pace out of the school.

It was night. He sighed. He was never so good with shopping.

His legs began to ache a little. He had been walking for over an hour. He sighed and sat down on the nearest bench.

Yoh put his hands behind his head and gazed upon the stars.

"The stars are so far, yet so close."

Yoh immediately let go of his head and turned around. "Who's there?" He asked, looking around.

"The stars are so so far away. Even farther than the sun. Yet you can just reach out your hand, and touch them. Because they are also, so so close." A hooded figure stood up from next to Yoh.

"Huh?" Yoh blinked looking at the rising figure. He stood up.

The figure unhooded itself.

"M-Mom?" He asked in awe.

Keiko smiled gently. "You've grown Yoh. Not only physically, but also mentally. You've learned much, my son. And now, the time for your final test has arrived."

Yoh looked confused.

Keiko smiled patiently. "The test of your love for your loved one has begun."

Yoh looked at his mother. "Wh-What do you mean, Mom? Do you mean like…my friends and all?"

His mother shook her head and smiled. "Your bond with Anna has grown tremendously. It is the will of the Great Spirits to test you."

Yoh frowned. "Is that why she's sent to Stanford? Is it?"

Once again, Keiko shook her head, frowning slightly. "Anna was given the opportunity to test for Stanford on her own. The Great Spirits just saw it fit to place the test upon the two of you now."

Yoh suddenly looked up, understanding everything. "Hm." He gave a small nod.

Keiko smiled. "You really have grown into a fine young man, my son. And for that, I'm proud of you."

Keiko put her hood back on. "Late is the hour you choose to be wandering the streets, Yoh." Keiko smiled. (Lord of the Rings! Original words were spoken by Grima Wormtongur, "Late is the hour this conjurer chooses to appear.")

Yoh turned red. Anna! "Um…I was-I wasn't-well…I don't-"

Keiko put a hand on her son's shoulder. "Don't worry. I already know."

"You-You do?" Yoh stammered.

Keiko gave a slight nod. "Keep searching Yoh. Only something you have searched for with all of your heart's content, will truly be of worth as a gift to one you love so much."

And with that, she disappeared.

Yoh smiled. Then he headed off to a nearby store.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

"Yoh? Yoh? Yoh wake up." A voice called.

Yoh stirred.

"Yoh? Yoh! Yoh wake up!"

Yoh tried to find the voice.

"Yoh! Yoh! Wake UP!"

A large red glowing ball was before him.

"AAHHHH!" Yoh cried.

"Yoh. What did you think you were doing? Sleeping at nowhere…"

Yoh blinked and rubbed his eyes hard. "O…Oni-chan? What?"

Hao rolled his eyes. I found you asleep on the bench here, Yoh. Anna was getting worried. Can't believe you'd catch a snooze here…Come on Ototo. You don't wanna upset Anna, do you?" Hao smirked.

Yoh blinked. "Anna….was …worried?"

"Yeah. In her own way of course. I was looking for you of course. But then, Anna just appeared outta nowhere, flung her beads around me and told me to find you or else."

Yoh didn't know what to say.

Hao smirked. He loved seeing his brother's confused looks. "Go on back to Anna now, Yoh. Go on Ototo, back to Anna."

"Oni-Chan…" Yoh groaned.

"What!" Hao screamed.

"Thanks!" Yoh suddenly lit up.

Then he left a very confused Hao as a single leaf floats past.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

"Anna, I'm b-"

THWAAK!

Yoh lay on the floor. Eyes swirling.

He sat up, holding his head so it wouldn't weigh him down again.

"Where have you BEEN Yoh!" Anna yelled.

Yoh sweatdropped. "I'm sorry Anna! I was taking a stroll, and-"

But his words were cut off as Anna flung herself around Yoh. "Oh I'm so sorry! I-I didn't m-mean to slap you like that!"

Yoh was a bit surprised. Was this Anna? He calmed her by embracing her. "It's fine, Anna…"

"No! I-I was so worried! What if y-you collapsed again! In the middle of somewhere? What if you got hit by a truck? Or-Or what if you were hurt! I nearly lost you more than once! I can't afford to ever nearly losing you again!" She cried hard in Yoh's chest.

"Anna…" Yoh whispered.

Anna suddenly realized what she did and pulled herself away. "I-I'm sorry Yoh." Then she turned to leave.

Yoh grabbed her wrist. "Thank you Anna,"

Anna turned around.

Yoh smiled. "This is more than once that you've shown you really cared about me."

Anna did not speak.

Yoh walked closer to Anna. "I want to spend the rest of the time we have toether to be our most memorable. Then, when you come back, we can look back and enjoy those memories." Yoh whispered as he leaned over to Anna's ear.

Anna's gaze softened, "Come with me, Yoh,"

Yoh sighed.

"Come with me."

"I'm sorry Anna, I can't."

"Why not!" Anna sobbed turning around.

"My place is here, in Funbari. In Japan. I'm not like you. I have no place in the US."

"The Great Spirits reside in the US…"

Yoh shook his head. "I just….can't Anna…I'm sorry…"

"But I can't go there without you!" Anna sobbed.

"I know. And I…really can't live here without you."

"Then why? Why? Why do you continue this?" she cried through misty eyes.

Yoh hugged her tightly. "Didn't I tell you? Because I love you. Isn't that simple enough?"

Anna stared.

Yoh grinned sheepishly. "Come on now, Anna. Our time is short. Let's not waste it."

Yoh held out a hand.

Anna took it.

Together, they walked out onto the balcony to enjoy the last of their precious moments under the stars.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

After this, only 1 final CHAPPY! THE GRAND FINALE! Although…I'm going on vacation in less than a week…should I hold it off till AFTER the vacation? MUAHAHAHA! If you DON'T want me to hold it off, you'll have to R AND R
