Axe: You've Been Warned

Disclaimer: I don't own Shaman King.

A/N: Sorry for the slow update. Due to my hiatus, I won't be updating a lot. I've been very, very busy lately and haven't got the time to write and think at the same time. But I can spare some minutes here and there so enjoy chapter 3.

"So how it'd go, Yoh?"

"…….."

"I don't want to talk about it.."

"Well, you're gonna have to, if you want help dude."

"…….."

"You guys were no help at all."

"C'mon man! What happened last night? Is she that good that it's that embarrassing for you to tell?"

"No! What happened last night didn't even come close to that."

"It was horrible.. I couldn't do it, you guys."

The guys slapped their forehands.

"Aww Yoh! You blew your chances with her! … So does that mean I can get a shot at Anna next?"

Ren slapped Horohoro upside his head.

"No, you dult! Yoh can still win Anna over. And didn't I hear from Manta that she claimed she wouldn't fall for you if you were the last guy on earth?"

Horohoro gasped and then narrowed his eyes toward Manta, who was standing cowardly behind Yoh."

"I-I didn't! You got to believe me! Ryu forced me! I couldn't say no! He was going to use his wooden sword on me! I'm tiny!" Manta squealed.

Horohoro pointed his finger at Manta.

"I'll deal with you later!" He said through gritted teeth and turned back to Yoh.

"Ren's right man. Remember that Axe thing? I still have it," Horohoro said pulling it out of his pocket.

"Nah.. I doubt it'll work. Just yesterday I told Anna she was beautiful and that's when everything went down hill.. T.T" Yoh said.

"What!" they all exasperated.

"And what did she say?"

"What? Do you think that was a bad idea that I said it?" Yoh asked.

"No, no. That's actually good. Telling a girl she's beautiful will get you somewhere rather than no where. I didn't think you had it in you Yoh. Impressive." Ren said before giving Yoh a small applause.

Manta and Horohoro soon joined in.

"Woo! Go Yoh! You rule dude!" Horohoro shouted.

Suddenly, their cheers and claps were drowned out by the sound of Anna's loud voice.

"What's all that racket!" She yelled.

Horohoro stopped shouting and Ren and Manta stopped clapping, freezing in place.

Yoh gulped.

"Uhh.. nothing, Anna! Maybe you're just hearing birds chirping." he yelled back.

After a few seconds, they heard Anna's small steps go faint and knew she went away.

"Phew.." they all sighed.

"Back to what you were saying Yoh.." Ren continued.

"Well… at first she thought I was crazy. But she definitely knew I was up to something. So I had to cover up my act, so I pretended I didn't understand what she was saying. Then she got confused and didn't understand what I was saying. I don't know who was more confused but then, if possible, I got even more confused because … she sorta.. made a move on me."

"WHAT?"

"Shh!" Yoh said stepping up to his friends.

"Oh, right.." Manta whispered.

"Wait.. so she made a move on you, dude?" Horohoro piped in.

"I guess.. I don't know. I just feel so-…"

"Violated?" Horohoro interrupted.

"No! Confused! She just got really close to my body and.. I-.. well what do you guys think it means? Is she trying to send me back the same signals, or…what?"

"Maybe.." Ren said thoughtfully.

"But we don't have time to figure it out. If she's sending back the same signals or not, you need to make the first move. The guy always has to make the first move. I guess it's just polite or just being a gentleman." Ren said.

"We don't have a plan, Ren! Just forget about it. Anna can just find another charming, daring guy…..

… or Horohoro."

Offended by his remark, the snowboarder whacked the headphones off Yoh's head.

"What's with everyone today? Why is everyone bashing me?"

Manta stood up and walked towards Yoh.

"Yoh, you're right. We don't have a plan at all. But the Axe plan is all that we've got. At least give it a try."

Yoh looked at Manta's eyes.

He sighed.

"I know you guys are right.. I just can't admit it.." he mumbled.

"Alright!" Horohoro cheered.

"So you're going to do it?"

Yoh looked up at all of his friends and gave a smile and nod.

"Yeah. I'm in."

-----

Yoh walked into his room quietly. Thankfully, Anna wasn't home so Yoh had time to execute the plan. He opened his door and entered his room. Spacious enough for some air and a nice big window for the smell to escape from the room. Yoh still looked around his room for any sign of life, feeling suspicious and anxious. A few steps toward the window was all he took before pulling out the thing that was going to help Yoh's relationship with Anna.

He stared down at the black bottle, hoping this would work. Yoh moved his head away and closed his eyes, taking in a deep breath…

Yoh felt a sudden rush of cool air all around him. The axe spray hit him like a soft cloud but the effect was strong, for he would soon realize..

He thought he had sprayed enough and stopped. Yoh breathed deeply and sniffed the smell on him and gagged. Yoh waved his hand in front of his body, to blow away the stench. He coughed a little and took one last look at the bottle.

"Man, this stuff is strong," Yoh chocked and hid the Axe underneath his pillow.

'There.. Anna will never find it now..' Yoh thought.

"Anna should be coming home now. I should go check." Yoh said.

He started to walk towards the door but then it opened, suddenly.

And a blonde head had popped in.

"A-Anna! I was just going to check up on you."

"Yoh.." Anna said dangerously.

'Oh no.. it's not working.."

"What…. is that smell?" she said narrowing her eyes towards Yoh. She took a big whiff of it and looked around his room, stepping closer to Yoh.

"Uh.. What smell? Do you smell something? I think Horohoro was in my room before-.."

"No, not that smell." Anna said.

She stopped looking around his room and her eyes stopped on Yoh. She took another step towards him. She was now only a few inches apart from him.

Yoh's face heated up and a small blush started to form.

He gathered up his courage to speak up.

"T-Then.. w-what are you smelling…?" Yoh stuttered.

Anna's expression changed drastically. She went from suspicious looking to… hot looking..?

Yoh couldn't explain it, but now Anna looked like a completely different person. She was giving him this look that just sent him into a hormone raging state. She looked extremely appealing to Yoh, and to his surprise seemed like that too Anna as well. They both were definitely on the same page and knew what was going to happen next.

She gave him a sly smirk and wrapped a hand behind his neck. Yoh was surprised.

'Is it working…..?'

Anna brought her face closer to his and to answer his question, she whispered..

"You…."

Yoh's eyes drifted to close as did Anna's. The last thing Yoh remembered was his heart pounding quickly and his mind not thinking straight. He felt weak.

He also remembered right after their lips touched, he thought..

'Oh yeeah….. it's working. Round 2: Belongs to me'

A/N: Okay, well I gave you chapter 3 and I'm sorry if it's not what you expected. I didn't really want to write this but I felt like I had too. I had to repay my reviewers for their reviews and patience so thank you. Read and Review please.
