SORRY I TOOK SO LONG TO UPDATE! REALLY BUSY! Too many projects…

HAPPY MESSAGE: BUT WE ARE LEARNING ABOUT SHAMANS IN HISTORY! Rather funky, eh? You see…we are learning about Indians, native Americans, and they had shamans that were medicine man and priests...

And do you know…the Coahuiltecans have a Second Harvest..where everyone gathers all the food they have, the shaman leads the ritual, EVERYONE eats EVERYTHING until they are full and collapse, then they dig a pit, and throw up in there.

You think that's disgusting?

Well…the next part is worse…the next day, they are so hungry because of throwing up everything they ate, they go back to the pit and eat back up their vomit…AND NOT SEPERATED VOMIT YUCK! ALTOGETHER!

Just imagine Yoh or Hao leading that yucky ceremony…OO… ew…

Ok…ON WITH DA CHAPPY!

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…T-T)

Title: Forbidden Love

By: ChibiAzn3

Summary: Anna Kyouyama. She's the Governor's one and only daughter. She's the one to marry the fearful Prince Hao. She's the one who fell into a forbidden love relationship with a servant… YXA

Previously… Jeanne cleared her throat. Anna closed her eyes again. "Then by the powers invested in me by the Asakura Court," She slowly said, her words drawn out. She paused, looking up. "I pronounce you, husband and-"

"STOP!" Someone burst through the two doors, shouting.

To Be Continued…

OOO

Erg…good title anyone?

Everyone turned around to see who it was. Whispers filled the air. Many gasped, pointing at the new guest, and then at the groom.

Anna's eyes shot open. She whirled around. "Yoh!" Her head screamed, but her voice fell silent. She couldn't believe it. She collapsed on the ground, crying.

Hao stared in disbelief and rage. "Who are you and by what means do you have of breaking and entering my wedding!" He screamed.

Yoh, who had his hands on his knees, sweating, stood up and smiled. "Sorry I'm late." He chuckled.

Amidamaru slapped his forehead.

Hao's eyes widened. "You-!"

Yoh's smile now turned to a frown. "Yes. And I'm warning you to release Anna!"

Anna looked up. "Yoh…what are you-?" She whispered.

Yoh, as if hearing her question, called out. "She does not deserve a monster like you, Hao! No one does! And I will see to it that you NEVER claim the throne!" He hollered.

Hao still stood there. "HOW DID YOU-! YOU! I-I KILLED YOU! YEARS AGO!" He screamed in rage and fury.

Gasps were heard all throughout the crowd. Some shrieked and fainted, others stared in shock.

Yoh smiled. "No, you didn't. You thought you did, but you didn't. After you pushed me off the cliff, you told yourself you had killed me. That's what I thought too. But I didn't die, Hao. You see, below the cliff was a river, and it was that river that saved me!" (Remember Aragorn from Lord of the Rings? Something like that…He drifted along the river. He nearly died, but didn't.)

"How-!"

"I was meant to live. As I drifted, slowly waiting for death, thoughts came to me. Why? Why did you? My only brother…it was then that I realized, my once loving brother was no longer living. He no longer existed. In his place, was a monster, who knew only to destroy." Yoh dipped his head to where his bangs covered his eyes, but Anna saw that he was crying.

Hao said nothing.

"Matamune found me along the beach. Your own cat, Hao. And then I returned to the Palace. All these years, hiding. All these years…preparing for this very day."

Hao still said nothing.

"Your own ignorance was your downfall that day! And it will be today too! For this is it, Hao, the last battle. The final battle. The final match, for the shaman crown." And for Anna…He added in his thoughts. He drew out Harusame, looking serious.

Hao's eyes widened as he realized what Yoh meant. He searched frantically for his oracle bell.

"Hao-sama?" Opacho came up looking frightened.

"What is it Opacho!" Hao screamed.

Opacho flinched. "H-Hao-sama…h-here…" Opacho took out Hao's Oracle Bell.

Hao snatched it making Opacho flinch again. He looked at it:

Tomorrow

He tapped the screen becoming impatient:

Asakura Yoh.

Hao looked up at Yoh, frowning. "You-?"

"Yes, Hao. I've been right behind you for 10 years! (Don't wanna do math) For ten years, I've been training…for this day...for Anna!" He leaped forward with Harusame.

Hao still looked on with confusion and anger. "Spirit of Fire!" He called.

The giant spirit came forth, blocking Yoh's attack.

"Yoh!" Anna screamed.

Hao smirked. "Hahaha! Yoh, is that really the best you can do? For ten years, you've been training…for THIS!" He gave a push and it sent Yoh flying.

Yoh weakly stood up. "N-No…you aren't going to win, Hao!" He quickly oversouled again and leapt forward with another attack. "Amidamaru!"

There was a blinding flash of light and all became silent.

"Yoh!" Anna called through the light, shielding her eyes.

When the light faded, smoke took place, allowing no one to see the result of the attack.

Anna coughed. Her eyes widened as the smoke began to clear and she saw two shadowy figures.

The smoke cleared completely, revealing Yoh within the grasp of the Spirit of Fire.

"YOH!" She cried again.

Yoh struggled in pain to release himself from the grasp of the giant spirit.

"You are NEVER going to beat me, Yoh! I will become the Shaman King, I will make Anna my queen, and the world shall bow before me! Nothing can stop me! Especially not you! I have more power than you will ever have!"

"Power…i-isn't…everything!" Yoh choked, gasping for air.

"Power IS everything!" Hao shouted, tightening his hold on Yoh, causing him to cry out in pain. "And I shall show you…just how powerful I am…" He dropped Yoh to the ground and smirked.

Yoh slowly got up, bruises and cuts everywhere. "Wh-What…are you doing, Hao!"

The Spirit of Fire disappeared and Hao instantly descended to the ground. He walked towards Yoh, smirking. Yoh stared, confused, while Anna nearby, sat in horror as she watched all this happen.

"I shall show you true power, Yoh, and what better way, than to fight you with your own strategies and tactics?" Yoh frowned and quickly oversouled. "Amidamaru! Into Harusame! Into the Antiquity!" He called. Then he shrank his spirit control.

Hao called forth the Spirit of Fire, but this time, into the form of a sword. (From the anime)

Yoh gasped in shock. "Wha-?"

Hao smirked. He too, shrank his spirit control a little. Then he lunged at Yoh.

Yoh, who was already weak, barely dodged the attack in time. He collapsed on the ground nearby.

Anna stared on in horror.

Yoh got up slowly. "H-Hao…you're wrong…p-power…isn't…every…thing!" He gasped as he finally stood up.

Hao said nothing but smiled evilly as he launched another attack on Yoh. "This time, Yoh…you're finished! If I wasn't able to finish you last time…I'LL FINISH YOU THIS TIME!"

Yoh raised his sword, also launching an attack of his own.

Both headed head on towards each other, and both ran past each other. Both freezing, facing back to back in opposite directions.

Anna stared. It was one of those times where both sides just attacked each other and have now frozen after landing on opposite sides, facing back to back. No one knew who got hit, for both were frozen and completely still.

"No…" Anna continued staring at both figures.

Suddenly, Yoh let out a weak and straining cough, blood spluttered out from his mouth, and he collapsed onto the ground.

"YOH!" Anna screamed in horror, she ran to him and broke down crying.

Anna placed Yoh's head in her lap. "Y-Yoh…"Tears clouding her vision.

Yoh smiled weakly. "G-Gomen, Anna…I-I guess…I wasn't s-strong enough…I'm sorry, Anna…I wasn't able to…f-fulfill my promise…" He coughed some more.

Anna stared on, tears falling. "No..no…you can't leave me like this!"

Yoh closed his eyes and continued smiling. "S-Stay strong, Anna…d-don't let Hao take control…of you…"

Anna shook her head continuously. "W-Why?" She choked.

Yoh opened his eyes. "Ashiteru, Anna…and…goodbye…"

"A-Ashiteru, Yoh…" She mumbled, silent tears still falling.

Yoh nodded. He closed his eyes…and then he was…

Gone.

OOO
