Ok there's a 'bit' of the actual story here...but heyI'll get my character in. It's probably not my best but hey in the show this part is funny.
Chapter 17
Meanwhile, with the Li's, Anna, Yolei, Tamera, Morty and Lee Pailong were all packed in the SUV heading to where Anna had indicated.
"Get this tub moving faster. Right now!" Anna said.
"Just who do you think you are?" Sharona said, "Giving us orders!"
"I'll tell you who I am." Anna replied, "I'm not only Yoh's trainer but I'm also his fiancée. So what that makes me is future Shaman Queen."
"No way! I'm future Shaman Queen!" Sharona argued.
"Yeh. Right. Maybe in your dreams princess."
"I am! I don't care what you say!"
"Yeh. Whatever."
"Urgh! Step on the gas Sally cause the sooner these people are out of here the better!"
Back at the fight, Mari was getting bored.
"I'm bored," she said, "This is a stinky play date."
"I know! What do you say we wrap this up and go buy stuff at the mall?"
"Yeh. Maybe we should all get those shoes we saw. The blue ones. My treat."
"Cool." Kanna agreed then said to the boys, "Sorry guys but we're now a little short on time. Full Throttle Joust attack! Now!"
The attack sent Ryo to the floor.
"Full Hallow attack!" Macchi said, attacking Len, defeating him.
"Pink Lullaby Chuck." Mari said as she broke through Trey's Ice wall beating him as well. One of the shots also hit Jacko.
"Ok that's it!" Yoh said, standing in front of his friends.
"I thought you guys were just getting warmed up?" Macchi joked.
"With friends as weak as those guys, you're better off alone." Kanna said.
Hao seemed captivated by the drama so I took this opportunity to slip away.
"There's no need to go through the motions Yoh." Kanna continued, "It's game over. TKO. White flag time. So if you'll just step out of the line of fire, we'll mop up and let you go on your way."
"No," Yoh said firmly, gripping his katakana, "Celestial slash!" The attack had no effect.
"We warned him. Now he's gonna go down too. Now! Ashcroft! Royal Rain!"
Yoh put up his shield to block some of the blows.
"What now?" Amidamaru asked.
"Just stand strong." Yoh said.
"Lullaby of Pain. Put him to sleep." Mari said, attacking.
Yoh kept his shield up but looked under a lot of pressure from the attack.
"Go get him Jack! Ultimate Hallow Slash!" Macchi said, joining in the attack.
After this Yoh couldn't hold his shield anymore and got pushed back.
"Say your goodbyes. This game's over."
I was behind a rock close to the action as Ashcroft went in for the strike. I was about to step in when two shikigamis came out of nowhere and blocked the attack, throwing Ashcroft apart.
The girls looked confused.
Then I recognized the person beside the shikigamis as Anna.
"Two things I always say," she said, " A lady should always be fashionably late to a party she wants to make a good entrance to. And, she should know when its time to take a hike."
"Hao's shikigamis." Kanna noticed, "You must be, Anna."
"Correct. Now I suggest you take my advice and get lost."
"I have my orders, so you're in luck. Mari, Macchi, we're outta here."
"Wise choice."
"Yoh, you should know that we never leave a game unfinished. We'll be back. You can count on it."
Then Mari and Macchi disappeared, one after another.
"Bye." Kanna said, narrowing her eyes. Then she too disappeared.
"Ook. Now that that's settled let's get going." We heard Elie's voice say in the background.
"You're right. Get ready!" Sharona agreed, "We're going to Dobi Village I'm going to be shaman queen and that's all there is to it so there!"
Then Ellie and Milly chucked out the gang's bags from the back door.
"Hit it!" Sharona said as their windows closed and they took off.
"Uh…" Tamera said, uncertainly.
"He he he." Morty laughed.
"I don't see what's so funny." Anna shot back.
"Whoo!" Yoh said, "That was a close one! Excellent timing Anna!"
"Hey look its Morty!" Ryo said, "Hello my tiny little friend."
"Hey there Ryo how's it going?" Morty said back to him.
"Hey what's up guys? Hey Yolei! You're here!" Trey said.
"Yeh…hi Trey." Yolei said back.
"Hi." Tamera greeted.
"Hello…who are all these people?" Len said.
"Who are you?" Morty asked about Jacko.
I took a sneak peek from behind the rock and I saw Anna and Yoh staring at each other. They started since Ryo started talking. 'Quit staring at Yoh!' I thought angrily.
Meanwhile, the girls Kanna, Mari and Macchi, had appeared behind Hao.
"Good work girls. That will be all for now." He said.
"Our pleasure." Kanna said and all three disappeared once more. Gone to the mall no doubt.
"Let's watch." Hao said to Opacho, "Yoh is about to receive the Tome of the Shaman."
Back with us, Trey said, "Man Anna just saved our butts! Right Ryo? Ryo?"
"Pleasure to see you madam!" Ryo said, standing in front of Anna.
'Good. Now she can't stare at Yoh!' I thought.
"You're looking radiant as always!" Ryo continued, "Props to the chic scarf look."
"Hm. Thanks Ryo." Anna said.
"Le-en! Great to see you!" Jun, Len's sister waved.
"And just what do you think you're doing here?" Len said.
"I'm wooking after my wittle baby brother." Jun cooed.
Len sighed.
I smiled. How sweet. They really do care about each other. Then I felt a sort of prickling feeling on the back of my neck. I was being watched.
Then my eyes met Anna's.
Anna's eyes met mine.
It took a few seconds to sink in. I gave a little squeak.
There was no point in hiding now. I gulped and slowly stood up.
"Uh…hey Anna."
Then one by one, everyone's eyes landed on me.
"Karuri." Yoh said.
"Karuri!" Yolei said gladly and scooped me into her arms, engulfing me in a suffocating bear hug.
"I…uh…well…" I didn't know what to say.
"What are you doing here?" Trey asked.
"Well…I sorta…snuck away from Hao."
"So…you're not with Hao?"
"Huh?" With Hao!
"Of course she's not with Hao!" Yolei said, "My sister would never join forces with him! Right Karuri?"
"Yeh! It's just that I…well the thing is he sorta…blackmailed me basically."
"Uh huh." Yoh said.
"He said either he kills my parents or…I become his Shaman Queen."
Trey sucked in his breath, "Ooh. Tough decision."
"Yeh so…I uh…chose the second one."
"Hang on a second." Len came in, "How do we know we can trust you?"
"Um… I dunno. That's why its called trust I guess."
"Well I trust you Karuri." Yoh said.
I blushed. Wow! He trusted me!
"And if master Yoh trusts you then so do I." Ryo said.
"Same here." Trey said.
"Ditto." Morty said.
"Hm. I suppose so." Len said finally.
Then I realized someone was missing. I looked around.
"Hey where's Lyserg?" I asked. It all went quiet.
"He…he joined the X-Laws." Yoh said finally.
"The X-Laws?" I said, "Who are they?"
"A bunch of maniacs who brainwash people into believing their junk!" Jacko said.
"They're against Hao but they just go about it the wrong way." Yoh explained better.
"Oh." I said. 'Aw man!' I thought, 'No Lyserg.'
An uncomfortable silence followed.
"Yeh so anyway!" Yoh said suddenly, "Those were some pretty sweet shikigami spirits Anna. Where'd you get those guys?"
"Thanks. I got em from Hao." She replied.
"Whaaat!" Everyone said, shocked.
"F-From Hao?" Trey said.
"Uh…so does this mean you're on Hao's side now and you're gonna attack us?" Yoh asked.
"Of course not sweetie pie." She said. I flinched. Sweetie pie… "Your future bride has brought-"
"Future bride?" Jacko came in," Make sure that ring's got 24 carrots!"
"Phfft!" I blurted out and started laughing. That was sooo funny! I laughed till my stomach hurt.
When I calmed down it was so quiet I could hear the wind blowing. I couldn't believe no one else found that funny!
"Uh…Jacko's a comedian." Yoh said to Anna and me.
"I see." Anna said.
"That joke was awful." Morty said.
"Personally, I thought it kinda sparkled!" Jacko said, grinning.
"Phffft! Sparkled!" I said and started laughing again.
Everyone sweatdropped.
"So what's this book about Anna?" Yoh asked, indicating to book in her hand, "What kind a secrets does it have?"
"Inside this Tome," Anna replied, "Is the knowledge and power of the original Hao Asakura."
Dum dum dum...
