Chapter: Twisted memory

"Damn! What is wrong with this crowd!" said Anna annoyed.

"I don't know..."said Yoh.

"AHH! Don't push me!" shouted a girl in the crowd.

"Eek! Someone pulled my hair!" shouted another sissy.

"Oh for gods sake! MOVE IT!" said Anna as she pushed another girl.

"Ow! What the he–!" said the girl who got pushed as she saw Anna's glare.

"ANNA! Wait for me!" cried Pirika.

"Got no time, dammit!" said Anna as she turned to look at her friend.

Just as she turned, someone got pushed, which pushed her. Behind her was the staircase. She was in for a fall. She fell down the stairs and was bleeding. Her head was damaged a lot. Blood was dripping from her head. She was unconscious.

"OH MY GOD! ANNA!" cried Pirika.

"WHAT! WHAT HAPPENED TO ANNA! I CAN'T SEE!"cried Yoh.

Yoh began shoving the people away so he could see. When he saw Anna, he bursted into tears and shouted, "ANNA!"

"Someone get the nurse!" shouted Horo.

Tamao ran all the way to the nurse's offices while shoving people out of her way.

"NURSE! We need help! Anna got pushed down the stairs by a huge crowd! Hurry!" cried Tamao as she bursted into tears.

"Ok. Calm down." said the Nurse as she saw Tamao.

Tamao and the nurse ran to where Anna was lying unconscious.

"Oh my goodness! Hurry, carry her to my office!" shouted the Nurse.

When Anna reached the nurse's office, she had lost a lot of blood. The nurse started to work on trying to stop the bleeding, while Yoh, Tamao and Pirika cried. Ren and Horo was just staring in shock. When the nurse was done stopping the bleeding, she looked sad. She also said, "Sorry. I'm afraid Anna has lost most of her memories. I think you should carry her home right away and let her rest. Also, someone needs to stay by her side." said the nurse sadly.

"NOOOOOOOOOOO! Why did this happen!" cried Yoh as he cried harder.

"Calm down Yoh, everything will be fine..." said Horo.

"Yoh, why don't you bring her home since you're the one who cares most about her." said Ren.

"Of course I'm bringing her home." said Yoh.

Yoh started to pick Anna up and carry her home. When he got to the house, he lied her down on her bed. He had no idea what to do. He was so scared. Since she had forgotten most of her memories, that meant she didn't remember Yoh. Yoh didn't want to think about that. He had stayed by her side until night. He had to go to his own room to sleep even though he didn't want to leave her. In the middle of the night, when Yoh had slept, Hao snuck into the house and went into Anna's room silently. He placed his hand on her forehead and sent lies to her memory. He made her think Yoh was evil and Hao was good. He made her memory TWISTED.

"Heh heh.. What are you going to do now, Yoh? Your beloved Anna has forgotten the times you spent with her. Oh what will you do? What will you do? Suffer Yoh." said Hao to himself.

Hao then jumped out the window and disappeared. The next morning, Anna woke up.

"Anna! You're awake!" cried Yoh happily.

"Um, yeah.."said Anna.

"Who are you?"

"You don't know who I am?" said Yoh surprised.

"I'm Yoh!"

"A hah! So you're the evil one!" shouted Anna beginning to look mad.

"Evil! Did you forget that much! We're engaged!"cried Yoh sadly.

"I don't want to be engaged to you! Where's Hao! I want to be engaged with him, not you!" cried Anna.

"...Hao...? Why... why... why Hao?" Yoh said almost in a whisper.

She doesn't even act like Anna no more...thought Yoh.

"Hao's not here..." said Yoh.

"Now, now, Yoh. Don't tell such lies." said a voice from the window.

Yoh turned to look at who the voice belonged to and saw Hao.

"HAO!" cried Yoh surprised.

"HAO! Where have you been?"asked Anna.

"No where, dear. I've simply been at home." said Hao forming a smirk.

Yoh noticed the smirk and it all came to him.

"Hao ...it's you...YOU'RE THE ONE WHO DID THIS!" cried Yoh angry.

"Yes, Yoh. I twisted her memory. But I didn't push her down." said Hao forming another smirk.

"HAO! HOW DEAR YOU!" cried Yoh as he leaped at Hao.

But Hao just dodged.

"Stop!" cried Anna confused.

"What's going on here!"

"Nothing. This evil guy here is trying to kill me." said Hao.

"What!" cried Yoh.

"Don't listen to him, Anna! He's lying!" shouted Yoh.

"Don't lie to me! Hao would never lie!" shouted Anna.

"What...? You believe him? Why?" asked Yoh.

"I thought you loved me.."

"Are you crazy! I love Hao and only Hao!" cried Anna.

Hao was watching this. And he found it very amusing. His brainwash spell had worked. It had worked very well in fact. Hao was smirking even wider now.

"Come now, Anna." said Hao.

"You must get to my house now."

"Of course!"said Anna.

"What! Anna is not leaving!" shouted Yoh.

"I am so leaving! You can't tell me what to do!" shouted Anna as she went over to Hao's side.

"What...? But..." said Yoh.

"Sorry. But I love Hao. Now if you may excuse us, we're leaving." said Anna.

"Yes. Of course." said Hao as he disappeared before Yoh could protest.

"No... This can't be happening! NOOOOO!" said Yoh.

"DAMN YOU HAO! I'LL GET YOU! GIVE ME BACK ANNA! WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER! I HATE YOU!" shouted Yoh.
