Chapter 21- Secrets Revealed
Story Idea Credit: Sakurayumi- Arigato Sakurayumi! Thankx a million for your idea!
"Ok, tournament is just a few weeks away and we will be leaving tomorrow." The coach Denbat announced. Everyone gathered around to listen. "I want you here by 6-"
"In the morning!" Macchi yelled. "But I need my beauty sleep!"
"And I am going to be hungry!" Horo whined. Everyone sweat dropped.
"Well you can just stay home and not go play in the tournament then." Denbat told them. "And plus, you can eat and sleep all you want on the plane." Ren let out a small snort.
"I don't want to go on a sorry excuse plane." Horo threw him a look.
"Look mister rich boy, FYI, We are not all rich like you." He muttered. Ren smirked.
"Which is why I will be flying on a jet instead of the plane."
"WHAT!"
"Now, now." Denbat sighed. "Enough. No one is flying there by jet and I mean no one. Not even you Mr. Tao." Ren muttered something under his breath but didn't comment on it. "Now we are all going to be here by 6. Whoever isn't here by 6, we are leaving you."
"Doesn't Yoh get an excuse to be late?" Pirika asked. "He does have an injured leg after all."
"Aww come on. I'm ok. Really!" Yoh grinned. "I can run now."
"But you can't jump and you pretty much trip over yourself Otouto." Hao said chuckling at the thought of the scene. Anna smiled silently. It was good that they made up…
"Well if he comes a half our late then no, he doesn't." Denbat said with a laugh. "But Yoh, if your leg is not fully healed in time for the tournament, you and your brother will be disqualified."
"WHAT!" The group gasped.
"But Yoh and Hao are the best players we got!" Macchi yelled.
"Surely you are kidding right?" Horo asked.
"How can we win if they are not able to play?" Pirika asked. Yoh laughed.
"Don't worry. I'll be fine." He told them. It didn't sound so sure but everyone left it as that.
"Alright, be here at 6 tomorrow. No excuses." Denbat told them.
"With the exception of Yoh!" Everyone yelled out. Yoh smiled. What great friends he has. Denbat laughed.
"Yes, yes, with the exception of Yoh. And also, Jeanne, have you talked to Meene?" Jeanne nodded while everyone else had a confused look on their faces.
"She said she will be here." Jeanne told him with a smile.
"Meene is coming too!" Macchi asked. "She's a guidance councilor, not a Co-Captain or Co-Coach…"
"But principle Marco wants another supervisor just in case." Denbat said rolling his eyes.
"Please Coach." Horo said laughing. "You know dam well you wanted Meene to come." Everyone laughed and giggled.
"Everyone knows you have a crush on her!" Macchi yelled. Denbat winced for a second.
"Enough! I will see you tomorrow at 6." With that, he turned and left. Everyone giggled and laughed.
"Don't front!" Horo yelled. –I have a feeling I spelled that wrong… Oh wellz.. I spell it just the way you say it lol.-
"Oh my god! Tomorrow, we will be leaving California to go to Australia to play in the volleyball tournament!" Pirika squealed. "I can't wait!" Tamao and Anna laughed.
"Yah, we are all very excited too." Tamao said. Anna nodded and continued packing.
"So what are we supposed to bring there?" Pirika asked, as she grabbed her suitcase.
"The usual, what else?" Anna said laughing. The girls giggled and continued chatting until Pirika brought out the subject.
"So now that you and Hao broke up, and you going after Yoh?" Pirika asked. Anna blinked.
"Huh?"
"Hello? The four leaf clover thing?" Pirika waved her hand in front of Anna's face. "If you don't find out with twin you are supposed to be with, you are screwed!" Anna sighed.
"I know..." She mumbled. "But I just don't know."
"Who do you like better?" Tamao asked.
"You're asking me?" Anna asked.
"Well why don't we make a list?" Pirika asked. She went to her desk and took out a small notepad.
"Is all this necessary?" Anna asked. Pirika nodded firmly and began writing.
"What do you like about Yoh?" She asked. Anna blushed lightly.
"Well... For one thing, he's nice and caring." She answered. Pirika nodded as she started writing.
"And?"
"Ummm... He's cool to hang out with?" Anna said unsurely. "I don't know..."
"Do you think he's cute?" Tamao asked. Anna blushed again.
"Kinda..." She muttered.
"Ok... What else?" Pirika asked. "So far, you only got 2 reasons and that's not good." Anan rolled her eyes.
"He's very friendly and..." She paused. "I don't know how to describe it ok? It's just so hard. I just like him..."
"What about Hao?" Pirika asked as she made a new list.
"Hao... He's definitely cute." Anna said with a giggle.
"And Hott!" Both Pirika and Tamao said at the same time before giggling.
"So what else?" Pirika asked.
"Well, he cares about me..." Anna said smiling.
"And not others except himself... But anyway, what next?" Pirika asked.
"Well... I don't know how to explain him either..." Anna said smiling lightly. "Sorry." The girls all sighed.
"Well what are you going to do?" Tamao asked.
"I don't know... I really don't..." Anna mumbled. "Maybe I should stay away from them until I figure this out..." Tamao and Pirika smiled.
"Don't worry." Tamao told her.
"Yah, you'll figure it out." Pirika said with a hug.
"Alright, is everyone here and accounted for?" Coach Denbat yelled as he entered the plane to find everyone half asleep.
"Yes..." Everyone responded sleepily.
"Come on! Where's the energy! You are going to play in a tournament! You should be excited and full of energy!" Denbat yelled. Meene laughed.
"Please Denbat. It is early. They must be tired. Leave them alone and let them rest." She told him as she placed her bag down and sat down.
"Yes, Coach. Listen to dear Meene." Horo said with a yawn.
"We are tired..." Macchi complained. "So just let us sleep..." Denbat sighed and took a seat next to Meanne.
"I just don't get it. When I first joined the tournament, I could barely sleep!" He said shaking his head. "Kids these days..." Meene laughed.
"Horray ray!" Pirika yelled. "We're finally here!" She hopped off the bus and ran off to the hotel.
"So this is the place we are staying in?" Anna asked with a yawn.
"I guess..." Tamao smiled up at the sky. "Come on." Anna nodded and was about to run after her friends until Yoh stopped her.
"Excited neh?" He asked with a smile. Anna blinked and offered him a tiny smile.
"Yah..." She mumbled and ran off, leaving Yoh with a rather confused look.
"Wow! Look at the size of these rooms!" Pirika yelled with excitement. "Do we get our own rooms?"
"Normally you would all have to share rooms but since you guys worked so hard and you are all new, you each get your own room." Denbat said with a smile.
"YAY!" Everyone cheered.
"I got dibs on the room with the view of the beach!" Macchi yelled.
"There is no room with a view of the beach!" Horo yelled.
"I never asked you!" Macchi yelled as she ran off to check out all the rooms. Pirika, Horo and the others followed after.
"I wonder which room I should pick..." Anna mumbled.
"What room are you picking?" Anna turned around to see Hao smiling as usual at her.
"Oh... I don't know..." Anna muttered and turned, checking out a room. "This will do I guess." She walked in and checked it out. Hao was about to say something when he was interrupted by Pirika.
"You have the best room of them all!" She yelled as she ran into Anna's room. "So unfair!" Anna smiled.
"Well too bad. This room is taken so go on back to your room." She said with a laugh. Pirika made a face.
"Fine, but I am staying over tonight." She said laughing.
That night, all the girls hung out at Anna's room since it was the biggest.
"Alright! Let's play a game!" Pirika yelled.
"Please not dare night again." Jeanne said with a nervous smile.
"Nah... Not dare night... I had enough of that..." Macchi said shaking her head.
"Then what do you suggest we play?" Tamao asked. Macchi shrugged.
"Let's go take a tour around here first." She said getting up. "Come on. We are tourists and we deserve a tour!"
Minutes later, all the girls snuck out and toured around. -Since I have never been to Australia before, I know no sites so skip the site seeing.- At the same time, the boys were doing the exact same thing. They got bored and decided to go out and "Hang".
Meanwhile... Back at the hotel...
"Where are they?" Denbat muttered in an annoyed and angry voice. He knocked on Meene's door.
"Hai!" Meene opened the door and smiled at Denbat. "Yes Denbat?"
"Have you seen the kids?" Denbat asked. Meene blinked.
"NO, not since they selected their rooms. Why? What happened?" She asked.
"They are missing..." Denbat told her in a serious voice.
"Oh, maybe they are out site seeing or something." Meene told him with a motherly smile. "You know kids these days. They are all wild."
"But I told the not to leave the hotel." Denbat yelled.
"Let kids be kids Denbat." Meene said calmly. "Don't you remember back when you were their age? Didn't you want to do things that the teacher won't allow? They are just the same." Denbat stayed quiet. "Loosen up and let them have some fun." Meene went on. "You only get to live once." Denbat sighed.
"What else am I supposed to do? Send a search party?" He mumbled. Meene smiled.
"Would you like to come in and have a cup or tea?" She asked. Denbat thought for a moment and then nodded.
"Sure."
"Onii-Chan! What are you doing out here!" Pirika yelled when she spotted Horo who froze.
"Poor little thing probably found out that he wasn't good enough to play in a tournament like this." Macchi said with a laugh. Horo shot her a look.
"Same question goes to you." He said looking at Pirika.
"We asked first!" Pirika and Macchi both yelled at the same time. Everyone sweet dropped.
"Why do I all of a sudden feel like I'm back in Elementary school?" Tamao asked while Ren rolled his eyes.
"We came out cause there was nothing to do." Horo told them.
"Same reason here." Pirika said with a grin. "Now come on! Let's go someplace fun!"
"And get lost and yelled at by Coach Denbat? I don't think so." Nichrome said shaking his head. Yoh laughed.
"Awww, come on. Everything will work out if that ever happens. Don't worry." He said resting his head on his arms. "We only get to live once, so take in whatever comes."
"Huh?" Horo asked and looked at Hao who shrugged.
"Don't look at me. I had to live with him and this type of language and I still don't understand him." The girls giggled.
"So where to?" Pirika asked.
"Anywhere exciting is ok." Macchi said with a wink.
"Night club!" Horo yelled out. Everyone sweat dropped. A few seconds later, they slapped him dead.
"Now I have said this many, many times." Anna muttered. "Horo... You are..." Horo blinked and looked at her. "CRAZY!" Horo jumped at her sudden outburst.
"Seriously! Night club!" Macchi joined in. "Not that that's a bad idea but you forget to notice that none of us brought some party cloths!"
"And Night clubs are dangerous!" Pirika yelled. "Isn't that what YOU told me?" Horo gulped. He looked at the other boys for help but received a sorry smile.
"You brought it on yourself Horo." Hao said with a chuckle while Yoh laughed at the scene.
"Gee... I wonder how long it would take for Horo to get beat up by a bunch of cute high school girls." Nichrome said with a smirk.
"With Macchi on their team... Not long." Hao answered with a laugh.
"What were you EVER thinking Horo!" Macchi yelled as Horo shrunk half his size and she towered over him, stopping her foot and quaking the earth below him. "Night club with no party cloths is like going to a party with no cake!"
"Mari says you could have used a better comparison..." Mari said, looking over Macchi's shoulder. Macchi shrugged.
"I wasn't in the mood to think that hard." She simply said and continued to glare at Horo.
Yoh smiled at the sight of how well his friends are getting along. -Sure... His friends trying to kill each other... That's what you call getting along? Something must be wrong with your brain if you think so... But anywayz...- He looked over to Anna who seems to be a bit quieter then usual. He walked over to her and gave her a small tap. She turned and he smiled at her.
"What's wrong Anna?" Yoh asked. Anna shook her head.
"Nothing. Nothing at all." She told him and turned away to watch the scene. Yoh titled his head to the side with an unsure look.
"You sure?" He asked. Anna nodded but said nothing. Yoh frowned. There was definitely something wrong with Anna but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
"Come on, let's just go walking around." Pirika hooks arms with Tamao and Anna who hooked arms with Jeanne and they walked off while Macchi hooked arms with Mari and followed them. They boys all shrugged and followed since there really wasn't much to do.
"Check it out!" Pirika gasped and unhooked Tamao's arm in order to point at a nearby poster. "They are giving out free night tours of the animals here!"
"Oh goodie! Let's go!" Macchi yelled. "And maybe this time, a lion might pop up and eat Horo up!" Horo rolled his eyes.
"There are no lions in Australia." He told her. Macchi ignored him and walked on with Mari.
"Come on Onii-Chan!" Pirika yelled as she rehooked her arms with Tamao and she, Tamao, Anna and Jeanne walked off after Macchi and Mari who was already getting on the tour bus; the boys followed after.
Since it was quite late, not many people were going on the tour. The last tour of the day actually ended a few minutes before but Macchi begged to let them have the final tour. Somehow, amazingly, they were able to go. They went through many places and their last stop was in a forest not too far from town. Everyone got off and looked around.
"Wow, this place is cool!" Pirika yelled. The tour guild laughed.
"If you be quiet, the joeys might come out." She told them.
"Joeys?" Horo asked with a confused look. Ren rolled his eyes.
"They are baby kangaroos you idiot." He informed his semi-stupid friend. -Sorry all Horo fans! I couldn't really think of a word!- Everyone waited and surly enough, the bushes shook. Everyone turned to see a small face pop up from the bushes and stared at them.
"Oh my god! It's so cute!" Jeanne whispered with a giggle.
"I know..." Tamao and Anna said smiling.
"If you be quiet enough, it might actually come out of hiding." The tour guild told them. "But don't stare at it. You might frighten it." Everyone turned and looked someplace else. Soon enough, the baby kangaroo -I never liked calling it a Joey- came out of hiding and walked up to them. The tour guild smiled and gave it some food, which it happily took.
"Awwww..." All the girls giggled and smiled at the cute site.
"Can we pet it?" Pirika asked. The tour guild smiled and nodded.
"Sure." She told them. The girls walked over and started petting the baby kangaroo. With so much attention, the baby kangaroo started nudging itself on them in a friendly way.
"It's so cute!" Pirika squealed.
"I know." Anan said with a smile.
"Let's take a short break over here before we leave." The tour guild said as she sat down by what seems to be a camp fire. Everyone walked over to the logs and sat down.
"I hope my shorts don't get dirty." Macchi said as she sat down. Horo rolled his eyes but decided to say nothing. The baby kangaroo followed them and pretty soon, another 2 popped up.
"I didn't know there was so many!" Jeanne said as she gave the baby kangaroos a small pat on the head lightly.
"I know. Australia is cool." Pirika said smiling. After an hour or so, they said goodbye to their little cute friends and climbed back on the bus.
Everyone yawned. "I had enough for one day. Why don't we head back to town and all it a day?" The tour guild asked. Everyone agreed and they headed back. When they arrived back, they said goodbye to the tour guild and thank you and left.
"I am going strait to bed." Macchi said yawning.
"Me too." Everyone nodded and agreed.
"What time is it?" Jeanne asked. "Anyone have the time?" Everyone shook their heads.
"We'll find out once we get to our rooms..." Macchi mumbled sleepily.
Once they got back to the hotel, they noticed that it was just 1:14.
"Wow... We must have stayed in the forest a bit longer then we all thought..." Nichrome said looking at the time.
"Well, night all." Macchi said closing her door.
"Night, night..." Jeanne said as she entered her room.
"Night Onii-Chan. Night Ren." Pirika said with a sleepy smile and closed her door.
"Night!" They all yelled.
The next morning, everyone wouldn't wake up. Coach Denbat sighed.
"Why me?" He asked. Meene laughed.
"Leave them alone. They probably came back pretty late." She told him.
"How late! What were they doing out at that time!" Denbat asked.
"They are just teens Denbat." Meene told him. "Let them slide once in a while." Denbat sighed.
"Well, you want to go and have breakfast first then?" He asked. Meene smiled and nodded.
"Morning everyone!" Macchi yelled as she walked outside by the pool in her bikini.
"It's actually good afternoon Macchi." Nichrome corrected her. Macchi stuck out her tongue at him and walked over to the others.
"Hey Mari." She said as she sat down next to her friend who was currently getting a sun tan... She did really need to look a bit darker... She looked way to pale. Mari didn't answer her but Macchi knew she heard her.
"Where's everyone else?" She asked.
"Mari saw Anna and Tamao in their rooms and they said that they will come down in a few minutes." Mari told her.
"And Pirika and Jeanne?" Macchi asked.
"Mari saw Pirika bugging Ren and Jeanne with Lyserg." Mari told her as she adjusted her shades.
"Whatever, when you are done with your little tanning, tell me. I think I will take another nap." Macchi said lying down. Mari giggled.
"Macchi will be burnt if she sleeps under the sun.
Finally, Anna and Tamao came out with their bikinis on. Tamao was pink and Anna had top literally drag her out.
"Somebody tell her that she looks nice in her bikini." Anan said as she walked up to them.
"Mari likes it." Mari told her.
"You look nice Tam. Don't worry about what Horo will say. If you says anything, I got your back." Macchi said with a smile. Tamao smiled shyly and blushed.
"Thanks." She said quietly.
"CANNONBALL!" Everyone turned and looked up to see water splashing all over them.
"HORO!" They yelled in rage. Horo stuck his head out of the pool and blinked.
"What?" He asked and then noticed that the girls were all soaked from head to toe. He smiled and laughed nervously. "Oh... Sorry." He looked at Tamao and smiled. "You look nice Tam." Tamao blushed hard.
"T-Thanks Horo." She said quietly. The girls giggled. Horo got out of the pool and prepared to do another cannonball.
"Oh no you don't!" Macchi ran after him and dove into the pool, swimming after him while everyone else sweat dropped and tried to dry themselves.
"It had to be Horo and his little stupid ass to do something like that." Macchi mumbled angrily as she got out from the pool and walked over to her friends who were waiting for her. "Only Horo would do something that stupid and childish..." Everyone smiled. There was nothing much they could do.
"OK, come on! Gather around! Gather around!" Pirika yelled.
"What for?" Nichrome asked.
"I'll tell you in a minute once the Asakura twins come out." Pirika said, taking a seat. Finally, Yoh and Hao walked out and turned to see they all staring at them.
"What?" Yoh asked. Hao lifted a thin eye brown and whistled. Tamao, Anna, Mari and Jeanne all blushed whiled Macchi shook her head with a sigh.
"What took you?" She asked, as they walked over to them.
"Ok, everyone grab a seat and sit down." Pirika ordered. Everyone did as they were told and sat down.
"Does anyone know why Coach didn't get mad at us?" Yoh asked.
"My question exactly." Nichrome said as he sat down.
"It's just forget that and try to have some fun first." Macchi said with a smile. "Why wants to play water volleyball!"
"Hello? I was going to say something." Pirika said with a look. "Anyway, you see this jug of water on the table?" Everyone looked at the jug on the center of the round table they were all sitting around.
"Yah, so?" Horo asked.
"This is how we play." Pirika explained. "We each take a cut and fill it with water. Then we each take turns."
"Huh?" Everyone was confused. Pirika groaned.
"Ok, this is what I mean." She explained. "We each have to say something that is true. If everyone else did the same thing or if that is true about themselves, they can leave the cup alone. But if I did the opposite of what the person says or what every they said does not apply to them, they have to pour the glass of water on themselves. You have to be truthful though. No lying. The order is girl boy, girl boy ok?"
"That's stupid." Horo said shaking his head. "It's just like truth or dare but it's just the truth and no dare."
"True, but it gets interesting once we get to the right topic. And it will also reveal some secrets about ourselves." Pirika said with a grin. Everyone looked at her with an uneasy look. "So come on. Since I created the game, I start..." Everyone watched as Pirika picked up her glass of water.
"I..." Pirika thought for a second. "Have never wore a guy's clothing before." She giggled and placed her cup down. The guys sighed and pour their cup of water on themselves. Good thing they were all in their swim wear and all or else they would have soaked their normal cloths.
"My turn..." Horo said sitting up. "I always knew that you all love me." Everyone sweat dropped.
"Pirika, what do we do if the player is lying?" Macchi asked.
"We all dump our glass on him." Pirika simply said. At the same time, everyone poured their glass of water on Horo.
"Hey!" He yelled. "You all love me so don't lie!" Everyone laughed.
"OK, my turn." Jeanne picked up her glass.
"Get ready to pour your drink on yourself." Macchi said with a laugh. "You know Jeanne never does anything bad." Jeanne giggled.
"Well I have gotten drunk once." She said quietly. O.o- That was everyone's expression.
"Oh, let me find out Jeanne is doing something naughty." Hao said with a smirk as he pours his glass of water over himself. Everyone looked at Hao.
"Are you lying Hao?" Macchi asked. "Cause if Jeanne got drunk once you must have gotten drunk at least 150 times." Yoh laughed.
"Nah, Aniki has never been drunk. I always kept an eye on him." He said grinning. Hao chuckled and took Nichrome's glass form his hand and pour it over Yoh's head.
"Hey! I have!" Yoh said with a laugh.
"Right." Hao said chuckling.
"Who's next?" Macchi asked.
"You." Everyone said. Macchi grinned.
"Well... I have always had a crush on Nichrome." She announced proudly.
"Ooooo..." Everyone said at the same time. Nichrome said nothing but smirked a little.
"What? I have. Got a problem with it?" Macchi asked, placing her glass down. Everyone laughed and poured their glass on themselves... All except Mari. Everyone looked at her and her face was flushed.
"What's up Mari?" Macchi asked.
"Mari needs to go." Mari said quietly and left. Everyone watched her walk off.
"Was it something I said?" Macchi asked. Everyone shrugged.
"I'll go and see if she's ok." Nichrome said with a sigh and got to. To say the truth, he didn't really feel like playing anymore anyway.
"Alright then, let's just continue now shall we?" Pirika asked. "Go Ren." Ren folded his arms.
"Why do I have to play this stupid game anyway?" He asked.
"Because you have to now come on!" Pirika yelled. Ren rolled his eyes.
"I am smarter then this Ainu baka here." He said pointing to Horo.
"You are lying!" Horo yelled.
"Nah, he right." Macchi said nodding. "He always passes his test and classes with a 95 or higher and you barely pass them.
"WHO ASKED YOU!" Horo yelled.
"Well, Anna's next." Pirika yelled. Anna smiled lightly and picked up her glass.
"Well..." She said thinking. "I have never been in the boy's bathroom before." All the boys sighed and pour their drinks on themselves. Jeanne looked down at the floor for a while before pouring it on herself. Everyone gasped.
"It was by accident on the first day of school ok?" She said quickly. Everyone laughed. Pirika and Macchi looked at each other.
"We went into the boy's bathroom too!" They both yelled and poured their drinks over themselves.
"Ooooo!" Everyone yelled with excitement and laughed.
"I'm next!" Yoh yelled and picked up his glass.
"No, you already went." Hao said with a smirk. "You said you always looked after me and that was a lie Otouto." Yoh frowned.
"But that wasn't fair!" He whined. "And I do look after you!"
"Then how come I always have to stay home and watch over you when you were sick?" Hao asked. Yoh blinked and laughed.
"Ok, so it was the other way around." He said smiling sheepishly. Anna blushed at his smiled and turned away, hoping no one would notice.
"Hao's next!" Macchi yelled. Hao smirked and picked up his glass.
"I like Anna." He simply said and smiled. Anan blushed.
"We doesn't!" Pirika yelled and hugged Anna and laughed.
"I don't." Horo said ad poured his glass over his head. This deserved a slap on the face from Anna.
"Say that again and you will end up being buried 6 feet under." Anna threatened. Everyone laughed at that point.
"Tammy's next!" Pirika yelled.
"Well..." Tamao said shyly. "I am... shy?" Everyone smiled.
"Me too." Horo said with a nod and pour his glass over himself. Everyone pour their glass over Horo's head once again and laughed.
"Quit lying onii-chan." Pirika said as she refilled her glass.
"Lyserg! You next!" Macchi yelled.
"Umm..." Lyserg thought for a moment. "Can I skip?"
"No." Pirika and Macchi both said at the same time.
"Well... I watched South Park once in a while." Lyserg said quietly. Everyone laughed.
"Don't worry Lyserg. We all have. It's no crime." Pirika said smiling.
"I love the movie." Macchi said laughed.
"Well I go again!" Pirika yelled. "Ummm... I have... Never kissed Onii-Chan on the lips before."
"And I'm sure you don't ever want to try." Horo finished her sentence for her. Everyone laughed and pour their drink on themselves. Macchi on the other hand, stayed quiet which was strange. Everyone looked at her and Horo froze.
"What's wrong Macchi?" Pirika asked.
"Are you not feeling well?" Jeanne and Tamao both asked. Hao laughed.
"She must have kissed Horo on the lips and doesn't want to admit it." He said laughing. Macchi and Horo both turned red while everyone starred at them with wide eyes.
"Shut up Hao." Macchi muttered as she stood up and walked away.
"I'm done with this game..." Horo mumbled and walked away. Tamao frowned and walked off after Horo. Pirika sighed.
"No point in continuing the game." She muttered.
"There's no more water left anyway." Anna said and pointed at the empty jug.
"So who won?" Yoh asked.
"This game actually has no winner." Pirika said with a smile. "It's just to let out deepest secrets out."
"I see..." Yoh said nodded.
"Just admit it Yoh, you don't get it." Hao said chuckling. Yoh frowned.
"I do... Just not all of it." He said smiling sheepishly. "Neh Anna." Anna looked at the two twins. "What do you think of this place so far?"
"Ok..." Anna mumbled and got up. "I'm going to check on Macchi ok?" Before anyone could answer, she walked off. Yoh and Hao both watched her go with frowned. They exchanged unsure looks.
"Neh Aniki... Do you think Anna is mad at us for fighting?" Yoh asked as he took a seat on his brother's bed.
"Don't know..." Hao mumbled as he walked into the bathroom to change.
"I mean, she doesn't seem to be happy." Yoh said with a frown. "I hope she's ok."
"She's fine." Hao said as he came out topless. -Yah... We all love him that way! lol- Yoh frowned.
"I don't know. It looks like something is troubling her." He said.
"Don't worry about her that much Otouto." Hao said with a sigh. "I'm sure Anna can take care of herself."
"I'm not saying she can't but... Oh I don't know." Yoh said with a sigh. Hao smirked and ruffled his little brother's hair.
"Taking care of me... What a joke." He said chuckling. Yoh grinned and laughed.

By the way, do you know where I can get any of those songs? Anywayz, so you Cantonese I presume...
hannami08: Wow... Err... LONG review lol... Haha, it's probably been a month since I have updated neh? Please don kill me! -sobs- Yes, life is cruel. Lol, yes, curse all the Hao haters. Lol you can't believe how may people are on my list to death lol. Oh my god! You are a senior! Cool! I have always wanted to be a senior in HS. They say your Senior year in HS is your best year. And to make this fair, I shall tell you what year I am in too lol. Next year, I will be a sophomore. I am still freshman right now but once school starts, I am a sophomore. I got all summer to enjoy being a freshman lol. Awww, most of my reviewers are starting school when I just finished school! Bummer lol. Well good luck in school and don let my story distract you. Finish up your school work before reading my story lol I don want my story to drag your grades down!
wayupi: Lol, yah, I do kinda like to confused my readers but the break this, I didn't intend to have one if it wasn't for regents for school and my cold. If I don pass my regents, I might have to go to summer school and no go on to the next grade so it's semi important. And also with the new PC and all.. Life is a mess for me right now lol.
hannah-asakura: OMG, you have got to see it. OMG! So great martial arts skills lol. And so HOTTTT! He stayed so calm when he fought with Yoh... OMG, I was about to faint! I have been watched that scene over and over again. Yoh never stood a chance. Hao was definitely stronger. The only reason why Yoh won -sobs- Was because everyone put their spirits together and believed in him.. Something like that but that was cheating. Hao-Sama had already obtained the great spirits too... -sobs- And who doesn't love Hao-Sama? Look at him! Don he look sexy without his shirt? Well I never read the manga so I have mo clue about how he is in the manga but I'm sure he's HOTT! Lol. I know, you are probably thinking, Neko is an obsessed bitch lol.
sweet-but-evil: Yah, you'll know your answer at the last chapter. I am still deciding right now who she should be with. I know that if I put out a poll, YohxAnna will win so I won't even try that lol.
Kyouko: Hey! Who doesn't love Hao-Sama! You are so going to go on my fanlisting for Hao-Sama fangirls IF I have time to make one lol. Neko is a Hao-Sama follower too!

Rika-San: Haha, but Hao-Sama doesn't need to be taken care of. You know that as well as everyone else. Lol, and who doesn't know that Hao-Sama kicks ass? Lol I gotta totally agree with the evil, fire and hotness lol. Yup, Hao-Sama can't die. I think Yoh would have died if Hao died. They are connected and all you know? All us Hao-Sama fans/followers are right behind him so you are not alone lol. No plushy. We ALL want the real thing lol. Wouldn't you? You also... I gotta add you to my fanlisting for Hao-Sama fangirls IF I have time to create one lol. -sobs- Isn't it sad that people HATE Hao? I know, it's so sad to hear. Let's go burn them to hell first! Lol
