Chapter 8

Faust was the first one to run into the room. When he saw Ren leaning over Jun he scratched his head. ANow where are those crosses? He checked his pockets, but instead found a bottle of holy water. He shrugged, then ran over to Ren and poured the holy water on his back.

Ren cried out in pain, then looked back at Faust. ASo you wanna play, huh? He suddenly grabbed Faust by the front of his sweater and threw him into the wall.

Faust laid stunned for a moment, then snapped out of it, only to see Pailong punch Ren where he had got the holy water treatment.

ACheep shot! Ren cried.

Faust finally checked his back pocket and pulled out a small cross. AItll do, he sighed. He lunged at Ren and slammed the cross into his left cheek.

Ren cried out then swiped his hand at Faust.

In the distraction, Li ran over to Jun. AJun, are you okay?

Jun nodded, then sat up. AI feel a little funny though.

Li frowned then checked Juns neck. AFaust come here!

AIm a little busy here, the doctor tried anxiously to dodge Rens attacks.

Eliza quickly appeared and slammed her fist into Rens burnt cheek.

Ren jumped back, holding his cheek. AIm not leaving until Ive turned my sister, he growled. Jun cringed, then Li stood in front of her. ADont worry, Jun. I wont let him get to you.

Jun smiled, then hugged him.

AThank you, she sighed.

Li smiled, then looked back at Ren.

AOh, thats so sweet. I think Im gonna hurl.

Li frowned, then pulled out his numb chucks. He was about to strike Ren, when they were grabbed out of his hand. AHuh? He turned around to see Yoh holding them. AYoh-kun, what are you doing? Li asked.

Yoh stared at him blankly, then threw the numb chucks over to Ren.

Ren grinned. AWell, well. I think Yohs picked whose team he wants to be on. Fortunately for him, he chose the winning team.

Yoh quickly grabbed Jun, then jumped over to Ren with her.

AThank you, Yoh Ren said, taking her from his arms.

Jun struggled to get away, but Rens grip was too strong. AWelcome to eternal life, Sister, and with that he bit Jun again, then suddenly received a blow to the head. He looked up and saw Amidamaru.

AStay away from her, Amidamaru ordered.

Yoh frowned at Amidamaru, then lifted his monument.

AGo away, he said quietly.

Amidamaru suddenly became locked in the monument. AYoh-dono, why are you doing this!?! he cried, as he tried to get out.

Yoh looked down at it, then threw it out into the hall.

Ren smiled, then looked down at Jun, who was now unconscious. The rest of the group ran in, just in time to see Ren allow Jun to feed of him.

Horo Horo frowned, then shot at him, but he was tripped by Yoh. "Owie! Yoh, what did you do that!?! he cried rubbing his knee.

Ren smiled, then fully picked Jun up. "Come on, Yoh. Weve got what we want. Ren jumped out the window, just barely dodging Lis fist.

Yoh began to follow, but was grabbed by Faust. AYoh-kun, do I have to do cross therapy on you again?

Yoh frowned, then began to struggle away. ALet me go! he cried in an usually hostile voice.

Faust sighed, then placed the silver medallion on his forehead.

Yoh growled softly as he was burned, then he fell asleep.

Manta walked over. AFaust, do you have to keep doing that to him? I mean, if he fully turns, isn't he gonna remember this?

Faust thought for a moment, then sighed. AIts the only way. He pushed it more into Yohs forehead.

Yohs fangs came out for a moment, then shrunk back to normal.

AThats what I was waiting for. Faust took the cross of and Yoh dropped to the floor asleep. Manta ran over. AYoh-kun?

Yoh snored quietly, then Manta sighed and hugged him.

Li looked out the window, then cringed. AWhy wasnt I faster!?! he cried, slamming his hand on the window sill.

Faust walked over. AIt wasnt your fault.

AYeah, it was Ryus! Horo Horo yelled.

Right on cue Ryu walked, yawning. AWhats going on? he asked. He looked and saw everyone frowning at him. AUh.....Am I in trouble? he asked nervously.

AWhy werent you watching Yoh!?! Horo Horo shouted.

AI was, but I guess I dozed off.

Li frowned then punched Ryu in the stomach. AIf you had stayed awake, Jun wouldnt have been taken!

Ryu hit the floor, then sat up. AIm sorry.

Li was about to punch him again, but Faust held his arm. ALi, dont. Its not going to help.

Li sighed, then lowered his fist.

Manta sighed, then walked out into the hall and picked up Amidamaru, who was still trapped. AAmidamaru, are you okay?

AYes, but I cant get out, unless Yoh-dono summons me.

Soon, at the abandoned apartment building, Riku looked up, sensing Ren and a female.

Ren walked in with Jun following.

AI turned her."

Riku stood up, as he began clapping. "Well done, Ren. You didn't screw it up."

Anna's eyes fluttered open, then she scanned the room. "Fairy?"

Riku shook his head. "No, Anna. Not Fairy."

Her eyes became sad.

"Daijoubu, Anna. We'll fix it soon."
