Chapter 5:
"What's your game?"
Hao barged in, "What's your game? What are you doing alone in this room with Yoh!"
Anna turned around and stared at him for a while, "Oh, you must be Hao. You do know that it's rude to barge into a lady's room, right?"
"Cut the crap."
Anna's eyebrows lifted then narrowed, "You cut the crap. How do you know where I live?"
"Well, how did you know who I was?" Hao ignored her other question.
"Yoh told me what you looked like," Anna simply said, "Besides you look alike. Now, answer my question."
Hao didn't answer, he just glared at her.
"Ah," Anna figured it out, "You follow Yoh here. You were the voice on the other side of the door yelling 'what'."
Hao stayed silent, which made Anna angry.
"Look, I'm getting tired of you staying silent," Anna moved closer to Hao, "You came here. So that means you have something to say so go ahead and say it!"
:Smack:
Anna couldn't take the look in his eye or his silent game, so she slapped him; hard. "If you're not going to say something than I should be the one to ask: What's your game?"
Hao's cheek was burning red. He covered his cheek and glared, "The first thing I asked is the only reason I came in here."
"I am talking with Yoh, that's all."
"That's bull. I told you to cut the crap," Hao glared, "What was he doing with your clothes."
"They weren't literally my clothes, they were my father's," Anna hated Hao's glare.
"That's not the point!" Hao was getting frustrated and got closer to Anna, "Tell me what he was doing with your clothes! What was he doing here!"
"Get any closer to me and I'll slap the other cheek," Anna glared.
Hao's glared didn't change, but he backed away.
"I saved him," Anna started to explain, "He was at the docks and he fell in. I saved him and brought him here. I gave him my father's clothes while I dried his. From then on I've been the one he's come to for help."
"Why would he come to someone who knows nothing about him?" Hao didn't believe Anna, "Besides, you don't look like the kinda person who would do such a thing."
"I understand what he is going through," Anna said backing further away from Hao, "Yes, I may not be nice, but I'm not evil. I do what I think is right whether it's nice or not."
"How do you understand what he is going through!" Hao was angry, it seemed that she knew more about Yoh then he did.
"I've lost people very close to me," Anna turned around and grabbed her jacket, "And because of that, I have to go to the cemetery. And if you don't believe go ahead and ask your brother, try and talk."
Hao didn't know if what Anna was saying was true, but he did have to go back to his house or Yoh will start to wonder.
As Hao reached the door, he heard a thud. He turned to see Anna on her knees in pain.
"W-what happened?" Hao ran to her.
Anna was breathing very heavily, but she managed to say, "It…it's…not…nothing…it's…just…this…weather…makes…me…sick……"
"Are you sure!" Hao asked, he wasn't heartless, "Are you sure you should be going out when it's like this?"
"I…always…go…nothing…will…ever…stop…me!" Anna started to get up and once again like before, went to the sink. She covered her mouth as she poured water into a glass then she drank it, "Now if you'll kindly leave. I want to make it there before it rains."
Hao left and so did Anna. As they reached Mrs. Hino's desk, Mrs. Hino asked, "Did he give you any trouble?"
"A little," Anna smiled and Hao glared; his was cheek still red from her powerful slap.
As they walked out Hao asked, "Are you telling me the truth?"
"Of course I am!"
"I'll talk to Yoh," Hao said, "I better find out that your stories are the same!"
"You will!" Anna walked off in the direction of the cemetery and Hao walked off to his house.
OOOOOOOO
As Yoh reached his house, a thought crossed his mind, 'Maybe Anna will let me go to the cemetery with her tomorrow. Maybe she'll help me get the courage to go to Amidamaru's grave.'
Yoh hated to admit it at first, but he was really fond of Anna. In a way she kind of reminded him of Amidamaru. He was also afraid to admit that he might even be in love with Anna. He's only known her a few days, but he couldn't get her off of his mind. She was so beautiful to him. He saw through the scars she had.
But how did she feel? That was the thing he was afraid of. He could tell that she was very distant, and he knew why. But it made him feel good to know that she wasn't as distant with him.
He felt a little bad though. He felt bad for Amidamaru, he felt bad that he was feeling good (a/n: if that made any sense to you). But he couldn't help feeling good, and everyone loves to feel good, right?
Yoh reached his home and shouted, "I'm home!"
There was no answer so he yelled, "Mom? Hao? Any one home!"
He searched the house, but found no one, "I guess Hao ran off again." Yoh went to his room and lay on his bed.
Soon Yoh drifted off to sleep and Hao came in, "Yoh? I'm home!"
"Mm……..go away…" Yoh mumbled slightly waking up.
"No, I want to talk with you."
"Well, I don't," Yoh said that despite Anna's words.
"You had better talk to someone! You talk to me or mom!"
"No," Yoh said half asleep, "I'm already talking to someone."
"Oh? Who might that be?"
"Anna," he said dreamily.
"Who's Anna?"
"A girl who saved my life and she shares the same pain as I do, and she's pretty and………" Yoh fell asleep.
"Yoh, are you in love with her!" Hao asked, but Yoh was asleep, so Hao shook him, "Yoh, wake up for a second! Has Anna ever, like, burst into pain?"
Yoh opened his eyes about a quarter and said, "When I came she was breathing heavily……"
"Did she tell you why?" Hao shook him to keep him awake.
"Because the weather………"
"Do you believe that?" Hao asked.
"Of course, she wouldn't lie………Now let me sleep…………" And Yoh turned over and fell asleep.
"If you say so," Hao got up and lay on the couch and soon he fell asleep, but he mumbled one last thing, "Really, who is she?"
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Well, sorry this chapter was shorter than the others. But I think that the story is coming to an end. I'm sorry if that saddens you. Maybe in the next chapter you find out how Amidamaru died. THANK YOU FOR ALL THE REVIEWS!

ChibiAzn3: Well, Anna did slap Hao, but wouldn't you have slapped him too? Hehehe, I would have. Hao and Anna don't really hit it off very well, but you can tell that Hao cares for his brother. I'll update soon!

jade destiny: Yea, Hao is a little weird in this story, but it's only because he cares for Yoh ((though at times it may not seem like it)). The last chapter was a little rushed but I wasn't really sure to add Hao in the story. I hope you liked this chapter! I'll update soon!
Well, until next time
Ja ne!
