'It's because I trust him that I'm waiting here for him'
Shaman King Manga 300: Distaster of the 500 years
In The Great Spirit:
"Ah, wow I feel great!" Yoh announced as he stretched out his arms.
"That's all you have to say after being able to meet Kami-sama?" Anna asked while raising a brow at her fiancée.
Yoh laughed and scratched the back of his head, then he smiled at her. "There are no words to say, because there are no ways to describe what I just saw."
Anna just stared, her brows not lowering a bit. Yoh sat down on the golden road and stretched out the rest of his body.
"Ah" he began as he laid back "Now all I have to do is wait, for that 'disaster' to come, and get rid of it" he closed his eyes and let the sound of his headphones calm him.
"Idiot, you're too carefree." Anna replied half annoyed and half amused. She turned to look in front of her and took a few steps forward leaving Yoh, on the ground with his eyes closed.
Without noticing that Anna was not beside him anymore the king asked, "Hey Anna, could that feeling we had earlier been part of the disaster about to come?"
There was no answer, Yoh opened his eyes to look for Anna who was out of his sight, they widened at the change around him.
The scene was no longer white; it had miraculously changed into a field of yellow, brown, and green grass. It now had a blue sky whit puffy white clouds that soothed ones soul.
He got up to get a better view of the calm paradise which had appeared. In the middle of it all he saw Anna standing looking up at the clouds with her hand on her chest, on her face a simple look of peace.
he began to walk closer when even so far away from her he could somehow hear her voice, as if it ..were inside his head.
"In the world of nothingness, there is the wind. Faint rays of light, where it sometimes snows, and, a person who has cried all of her tears. myself. How much time has past? It might have already been five years. The one thing I wait for is your voice..."
The grass around him began to move as the wind blew past each piece of grass, the along with the wind came tiny specs of yellow light, little round balls floating as if they were cotton.
Yoh stared in complete awe at the shining lights and looked around him, he looked at Anna who did nothing but stare at the sky. Something was different about her, but ...what?
The wind began to blow harder this time carrying all the mini lights around him and Anna, Yoh looked around ignoring the lights around him and kept his eyes on his fiancée.
The lights came around slowly to her back-side forming a bigger light little by little until it seemed to form wings of light on her back.
For some reason his eyes couldn't part from the scene before him, he looked at the wings for a while longer until they shattered, and everything became...white...
Yoh opened his eyes; they slowly grew from the memories of the scene that "occurred". He placed a hand on his forehead
'Was it a dream?' he asked himself in a low whisper. He lowered his hand from his forehead and placed it on the ground where he felt the soft grass from his dream under his hand.
He looked up where Anna was looking down at him, her face only a few inches away from his.
"Even in the Great Spirit, you're still lazy and carefree." She stated, a bit annoyed by the fact.
"He he, I guess I still am." He replied with his usual calm and carefree grin. Anna rolled her eyes and stood up.
As she did, the glistening lights from Yoh's dream came out from the grass as a small wind past. Yoh stared at them, not taking his eyes away from them.
Anna looked at the look of amazement on her fiancée's face.
"These lights seem strange to you?" she asked him curiously. Yoh turned to look at her and nodded.
"These lights are the many spirits that once had a dream; they bring peace to one's mind, and make many think good memories or memories that will happen. Also many belong to spirits who had a wish that was never fulfilled, which is many of them."
Yoh looked at the lights that surrounded his surroundings. "Lights of memories, and wishes, huh?" he whispered, trying to touch some that where close to him.
Funbari No Onsen:
"What do you two want?" Hao asked angrily at the sight of Magna and Namari sitting on the couch of the future Funbari Inn.
SMACK
Asanoha smack Hao on the back of his head, with a kind grin on her face.
"Asaha, that's no way to treat guests." She said in her usual kind tone.
"That's way besides the point." Annaka replied in Hao's defense, she turned towards the Patches "It has begun, am I right?" she asked, already knowing the answer.
Everyone stared at her and the Patch in complete confusion, all except Hao, who sat on the couch beside of him with his arms calmly behind his head.
Magna nodded "we are not completely sure of it, but it may have started."
"The Great Spirit asks for specific shaman to go to America once again." Namari continued for him while he drank some tea.
"I see." She responded. She threw her school bag on the table and sat next to Hao on the couch in front of the Patch. For a minute everything was completely silent, until Manta broke it.
"AHH! I don't understand what is happening here!" He yelled shaking his head rapidly back and forth.
"Shut up" Annaka ordered. Manta did as he was told. "It's nothing big to fuss at."
"What is coming is the battle between the three worlds." Hao began.
Tamao held baby Hana tighter and closer to her. "Th-Three… worlds?" she asked, making the tone of worry in her voice obvious to everyone around her.
"Heaven, Man, and Hell" Hao responded in a calm matter with his hands behind his head.
"Heaven, Man, and Hell?" asked Horo Horo looking confused as he stared at Kalim who was also talking about the battle of the three worlds.
Kalim nodded "idai na tatakai. It happens every 500 years while the Shaman King slumbers within the Great Spirit.
Pirika looked up at Kalim after taking a peek at her brother's oracle bell. "but, I thought the disaster of the world happened after the Shaman King sleeps" she stated.
Kalim scratched the back of his head "I guess each case is different for each king, history changes after all, right?"
"Liar."
They all turned to see Mari with her arms crossed in front of her, she took slow steps to get closer to them.
"Mari thinks you're hiding something," she took out Chuck with his gun in his hand and pointed it towards Kalim. "tell Mari what you are hiding"
...
"What are you hiding from me?" an angry Tao said holding his spear out a few inches away from Nichrome's face.
"What ever do you mean, Tao Ren? There is nothing to hide at all" Nichrome replied in his usual calm self.
Macchi and Jun stood each beside Ren. Macchi had her broom on her shoulders just staring at an angry Tao; she then walked forward to Nichrome.
"Hey Nichrome, Ren-kun doesn't seem to be buying your lies so why not tell the truth, eh?"
"Oh, so you don't believe me either, Macchi-Chan? I was sure I was pretty convincing." Nichrome replied smiling all the way.
"You're just not so easy to believe." Laughed Jun
"I wouldn't believe you even if you were telling the truth, but let's just see how much of the truth you can tell."
...
Jeanne sat at the church praying silently, with not a single noise around her.
Lyserg just stared at her as she calmly and silently prayed; he then heard the doors of the church slam open, with a huge blow of wind entering the church.
Jeanne placed her hands on her lap and without having to look back she seriously said "You come to bring news on Yoh-sama and Anna-sama, Shilva?"
Shilva walked towards them, not saying a word he sat down, and then he began to explain.
"I am not here to lie to you two, the flow of the Great Spirit has been acting strangely in great ways. We Patch ask you two to come to America."
"Why must we go?" Lyserg asked.
"The teams that went on to the final round of the Shaman Fight were called up, we believe that someone is causing the idai na tatakai to come earlier than it's time, so early that it's purpose may be to destroy the Shaman Throne in their sleep, or erase their souls for life."
...
"Why would someone want to do that to Danna!" Ryu shouted out angrily.
Hao shrugged his shoulders, not bothering to hear the rest of the explanations given.
" Well I'm not going to stand here and let someone do that to Danna!" He yelled out, grabbing his wooden sword and heading out the door.
"Idiot, you have no clue where to go." Annaka coldly replied making Ryu freeze in place, realizing that she was right.
Manta and Tamao sweat dropped, at Ryu being so clueless, while Asanoha giggled, and Faust.
"Either way looks like we're taking a trip to America." Hao announced as he stood up and began to walk up the stairs.
Everyone looked at him in total shock.
"You're kidding, right Hao-sama?" Kanna asked her highly respected Lord Hao.
Hao turned to them raising a brow, "why would I be? If it gets me out of school I'm fine with it." He said with a Yoh-like grin.
Everyone in the room sweat dropped and fell to the ground in disbelief.
'I guess some people just don't have their differences when it comes to school.' Manta thought implying that Yoh and Hao both had similar thoughts when it came to school.
Tamao stood with Hana sound asleep in her arms, she headed for the kitchen, where she looked out the window avoiding the sounds/yells behind her.
She became lost in her own thoughts. 'Yoh-sama I may be able to see you again, that would surely make me happy. And maybe I could…'
She shook her head to get away from those thoughts boiling in her head about her precious Yoh-sama.
"What I am thinking?" She asked herself silently "Yoh-sama belongs to Anna-sama" tears began forming in her eyes.
She slowly wiped them off, and decided to go put Hana in his bed. After she did that she went back to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
"Bad thoughts disturbing you Tamao?" she heard a voice asked her from behind.
She turned and saw Annaka looking at her, with Ryu right behind her.
"Annaka-sama! Um, no not really…I'm just…um."
"Don't try to lie to me, Tamamura." The blond coldly ordered, "Not like it's even possible." Annoyed she left the kitchen leaving Ryu with Tamao. "Don't worry, Tamao-chan, I have wishes to see Danna too." Ryu excitedly announced to her.
The blood suddenly rushed to Tamao's face, not of her usual embarrassment, not because of her usual reasons, but because…because…because no one had wishes to see 'her' Yoh like she did.
And for once in her life the young pink-haired shaman said it. "You don't want to see him as much as I do!" she yelled out.
Realizing what she'd just done she covered her mouth looked in Ryu's direction and saw not only his face of shock but also of all the others who sat in the Asakura living room.
Now her face was burning from embarrassment "Gomen!" she shouted and with her hands still around her mouth she ran up the stairs to her bedroom, with Ponchi and Konchi chasing after her.
No one in the living room moved, there was complete silence until it was broken by Kanna.
"Looks like that girl has a backbone after all," she said while taking her cigarette out of her mouth.
Part of Hao was surprised, (part) the other part was half amused.
"well every pink rose does have it's thorns you know." He said in a joking matter.
He then stood up and stretched his arms out, and then he placed his hands in his pockets and said "Well I'm off to pack, got nothing better to do so I might as well." With that said he started up the stairs, as well.
Annaka watched him go, she stood and walked over to the kitchen.
"*sigh* the dishes are still needed to be washed." She said to herself, she shrugged her shoulders, "When in Rome…"
"HEY, OYAMADA! GET A STOOL; THE DISHES ARE NEEDED TO BE WASHED!"
Manta shuddered at Annaka's bossy Anna-like tone. 'I think Annaka is taking this whole act like Anna thin a bit too seriously.' He thought to himself.
But maybe for once in his life, he could probably stand up to someone, Annaka does look a lot like Anna, besides the red eyes and long hair, but the rest was the same. Maybe he could use Annaka as a way to practice standing up to Anna! Maybe…maybe…
"OYAMADA!"
He…he, who was he kidding? Annaka is Anna's incarnated spirit through the Patch spirit of the Shaman Queen. So in other words Annaka is not like Anna, Anna is Annaka.
So once again who was he kidding?
...
"REN-KUN, YOU'RE NOT GOING!" yelled a very unhappy/sad Macchi.
Ren was getting ready with his stuff to leave and head to the Funbari Inn where he would meet the others.
Macchi was standing at the enormous doorway to the Tao's house; she covered the door with her broom. In front of her stood a very annoyed Tao Ren, behind him was Jun smiling away sheepishly.
Ren now had his hands formed into a tight fist; he tried hard to keep him temper down, but the orange haired shaman has been making that way too difficult the past 15 minutes.
"Jun, could you…move her out of the way." The Tao said to his 'beloved' sister, but he made it sound more like an order than a request.
Jun just smiled away at her little brother "I'm sorry Ren, I just don't think there's anything I can do." She told him in an evil/maniacal tone.
"Curse you." He said under his breathe. He turned to Macchi, who's expression had suddenly changed. She had the tearful and frightful look she had on her face as she did when Hanagumi was taken away from Hao after he tried to devour their souls.
"I want to go too," she stated in a shaky voice "I want to see Hao-sama, I haven't seen him in a while."
Ren rolled his eyes; he looked at Jun who had that you-have-no-good-way-to-treat-a-girl look on her face.
The Tao sent her a glare, and faced Macchi once more, he lowered his head, trying so hard to keep down all the anger he had bubbling up inside him.
Not knowing the consequences he said the first thing that had popped into his head.
"It's only been a week since the last time you saw him at Mu." He viciously said trying to sound as calm as possible but making hard when his teeth were clenched together.
Finally he looked up at the pumpkin-loving shaman only to see her shaking even more but now she was shaking in anger and sadness.
"A week is too long away from Hao-sama!" she yelled out her voice shivering and shaking trying to hide back the tears.
Ren just looked at her, he could do nothing more. Bason appeared beside him, feeling a bit of sympathy for the girl.
"Bochima, maybe she could just come with us..." Ren gave him a cold look and Bason immediately added, "-but…only until we get to the Funbari Onsens, then maybe she could stay there until our return!"
Ren sighed. This argument was going nowhere unless he would agree, he knew that for sure. Finally the hardheaded Tao admitted defeat.
"Fine, but only until we get to Yoh's house." He stated.
Macchi's expression changed in those few seconds. She jumped up and perked up in excitement, next second you see her hanging off of Ren.
She looked like a hyper koala hanging on tightly to a tree. With her arms and legs wrapped around him and her head on his chest.
"Thank you, Ren-kun!" the hanging Macchi told him.
Ren was in complete shock. He was frozen in place, not to mention the blood rushed to his head immediately as she had jumped on him.
Jun couldn't help but to begin laughing out loud, she laughed ad she laughed hard.
That had brought Ren back to his senses, he looked at Macchi, still with his radiant red face.
"Idiot, what do you think your doing!" he sputtered. Macchi of course responded with the most obvious answer.
"What does it look like? I'm hugging Ren-kun!" she joyfully announced.
Nevertheless all Jun did was smile at Macchi's response. She listened with a smile and then stood and clapped her hands together when she finished. "Well I guess I'll leave you two alone."
Ren immediately reddened his face even more as he sputtered, "Where do you think your going!"
Jun turned to her little brother, with an innocent look on her face, "Well if Macchi-chan gets to go I believe I have just of a right to go as well. So I'm off to pack!" she happily stated.
Ren froze. That couldn't be good. He had to stop her—
He took a few steps forward then fell back with Macchi still grabbing on. He was no longer mad no now his temper was about to be loose!
Then out of the corner of his eye, before his calmness left him, he saw Bason slowly 'tiptoeing' away from his furious Master and the 'koala' that held on to him tight
Ren closed his eyes, extremely annoyed with Bason. "Bason..." warned Ren.
The Chinese warrior stopped dead in his tracks and floated back to his master, defeated.
...
"Well, I'm off!" an excited blue-haired shaman announced to all in his house.
"Onichan! That's unfair, why do you get to go to Anna's on your own!" his sister asked him demanding to know an answer.
Horohoro sighed he had just finished going over that, but obviously Pirika hadn't been paying a bit of attention.
"Pirika, I just went over that. I told you-"
"Either way I'm still going! I'm even pack so-"
"KYAAAAA!"
Both the Ainus jumped at the sound of the loud screech they had just heard. They turned to wear the shriek had come from, and in came Mari running through the door in a short black kimono.
She ran up and hid behind the two Ainus who had stopped their fighting to see Mari with total curiosity. Mari didn't dare look at them; she just covered her face with both her hands and was shaking…hard.
"Mari? What's wrong?" Questioned the female Ainu, not being able to think of a single thing that would scare Marion Phauna.
Mari didn't move or say a word she stayed like that as if she were a statue. Even when Kororo got extremely close to her she did not move.
Horohoro thought for a while, even if it made his head hurt a bit he still thought of a way to make her talk.
He bent down to her level with a mighty mischievous grin on his face. "You know, if you're going to wear a kimono that short you should probably not bend over where everyone can see your undergarments."
Pirika looked at her brother in shock. She would have never thought that even her own brother would be dumb enough to say something like that to a girl, but worst of all to Mari.
Mari quickly stood up, her hands covering the back of her kimono, her face was now a light pink color, and she was looking at the ground.
"Mari thinks Horohoro…is a hentai." She angrily stated.
'Ha, she talked' Horo proudly announced in his head, he was proud that one of his strategies worked once in a while.
"Now are you going to tell us what you yelled for?" He asked her hopping he could get this over with so he could leave.
Mari face did not rise anymore than it was, and her face never changed its pinkish color.
She muttered something that no one could hear, they asked her again, this time she responded a bit louder.
"Marichucknyacatchan." She claimed rapidly that they were only able to hear the 'Nya' in the sentence.
Pirika put her index finger over her mouth and looked up at the ceiling of the house. "Nya?...Nya? Hmm…"
"Nya" came a little noise from a corner they all turned to the corner and saw a little white kitten with red eyes walking over to them.
Pirika completely sweat dropped in disbelief. A cat?
"Mari…you're scared of -"
"A cat! Hahahaha! You're scared of a fluffy white animal! Ha-ha!" Horo fell to the ground laughing so hard tears were coming down.
Mari was now tomato red, her hands were clutched in fists, she looked at Horohoro, then at the cat. She slowly sat on her knees and hid behind Horohoro who was now sitting up, wiping the tears off his face.
"Mari…can't help it. He...it…murdered Chuck!" She blurted out, now hiding herself even more from the cat.
Pirika, still not believing that a kitten could 'murder' a spirit, shook her head. She opened her mouth to say something, but closed it after seeing something move out of the corner of her eye.
"OH MY KAMI-SAMA! WHAT IS THAT?" She shouted as she saw a bottom half of a doll wobbling on its own with the stuffing coming out with each step.
And behind it came the upper half of a doll missing an arm along with an eye, carrying a gun.
Pirika was now also hiding behind her brother. After the body came into the light they realized it was Chuck, who aimed its gun towards the cat.
There was complete silence while Chuck carefully aimed at the cat, at least there was until…a furious Usui Oyaji also joined the commotion.
"WHAT'S WITH ALL THE NOISE!"
BAMMM!
"NYA!"
ching! *claw*
"AHHHGG! He's on my pants!"
*RIPP!*
"KKYYAAA! MARI KNEW! HOROHORO, HENTAI!" – "ONICHAN!"
BANG, BAM, BOOSH, CRASH,
Everything happened in a heart beat, the scene completely changed from a few seconds ago.
The Usui house wall and ceiling was now filled with many holes, craters, cracks…ect.
Horohoro was now on the ground after he had fallen from tripping over his pants, which the cat had seemed to rip.
Mari was on her knees again covering her face while Chuck's upper half patted her softly on her back.
Pirika and Oyaji just stood there, not being able to believe what had just happened.
Oyaji looked furious he took a few steps forward and picked up the cat and let him out the door. He then looked at the mess the young shaman made.
"It'll take me forever to fix the mess you all have made," He replied, closing his eyes in anger. "But maybe it'll be faster if you are all not here to disturb me."
He looked at Horo who still sat on the floor with a look of total confusion on his face.
"GET UP AND PUT SOME PANTS ON YOU STUPID SON!" he yelled at him, Horo came back from reality and did as he was told.
When he came back, with some new pants, Oyaji looked at him then at the girls, he then announced-
"Horokeu, since I won't be able to finish fixing the mess ya'll made fast enough you're taking the girls with you. That's an order." With that said he went back to the room from which he came from to begin with.
Horo just stood there with his jaw wide open, and then finally words came out of his mouth.
"DAMMIT!"
...
"Well Mic, here we are….jail. *sigh* it seems so hard to turn myself in, who knows how long I'm going to be locked up in there." Stated a scared, no, terrified Chocolove.
He had return to New York had had decided it was time to pay for all the lives he killed, but now, as he stood in front of the huge dark cement walls, he began to have doubts…lots of them.
Avaf had appeared beside him, scaring him out of his wits.
"What are you standing out here for? Hurry up and turn yourself in!" He yelled impatiently waiting for his dimwitted 'master' to hurry up and get it over with.
Chocolove sighed again, he then sweat dropped saying "I'm starting to think this wasn't a good idea…I don't want to spend who knows how long in a place like this."
He pointed to the old, almost broken down, and rusted building. Avaf and Mic took a good look at it; it truly was most definitely the ugliest building they'd ever seen.
Avaf cleared his throat deeply and responded "Well your old self brought this upon yourself, and you have to pay the price. Jail is not supposed to be enjoyable you know."
Chocolove looked as if he was going to drop on the floor crying, but he decided not to.
" *sigh* well I guess I might as well get this over with." He stood up straight and tall like a soldier, "Well then let's-"
BEEP BEEP BEEP
The shaman froze in place and searched for the peeping sound it came from his oracle bell, "Huh? Why is my oracle bell ringing?" He pulled backhis sleeve to read the message.
"Look up. Look up?" he did as told and saw two big feet coming down from the sky, getting closer and closer and…
CRASH!
On top of the poor comedian stood none other than a Patch, but not just any Patch, but Chrome.
He had his eyes closed and arms crossed out in front of him, he stood tall not noticing who he stood tall on.
"Chocolove McDonell, your presence is required in America along with the rest of team Ren. You will meet at the home of the Asakuras' and go with them from there. Understood?"
"…."
Chrome opened his eyes and looked around, the dark shaman was no where to be found.
"Chocolove McDonell?" He asked. Avaf and Mic both appeared in front of him Avaf cleared him throat and pointed under him, while Mic looked down.
Chrome looked down as well only to see he was standing on top of the dark shaman's body.
"Oh, my apologies McDonell-san." He said stepping off the clobbered shaman.
Chocolove painfully got up and stretched while stating "Its not prob. Besides you've even popped my back! I've been having back pains for a while now!"
Avaf and Mic sweat dropped while Chrome looked serious then blurted out laughter which he was trying hard to hold in.
Chocolove cried tears of joy "He laughed at one of my jokes!" he happily said to himself.
"That's unbelievable." Stated the floating Inca spirit, while Mic nodded.
"Now," the Inca began, "finish telling us what you were announcing." He ordered the Patch.
"Of course…." He began to explain all of what had been explained to the other, while Chocolove and the other two spirits listened carefully to know what they were being sent into. When he was done explaining Chocolove thought for a while then took a few steps back and said "Well then we're off to Yoh's house!"
Avaf's mouth dropped "What about prison!"
"I'll come do my time later, it's time to go help Yoh for once. Lets go Mic!"
with that said the dark shaman ran back happily to get ready to meet up with his old friends.
...
Jane, Jeanne and Lyserg all sat quietly on the couch, waiting for Marco to give his response to go to America.
"Marco, there's really not much to think about, why not say yes?" asked the Maiden's mother, trying to get her daughter's 'protector' to agree in letting team X-I go.
"I will not give such an easy response to a mission dangerous to the fair maiden!" the blond shaman loudly stated while pulling his glasses up to his nose.
A drop of sweat came down Lyserg's forehead, "but Marco… its only a yes or no question."
Marco sighed he looked at Jeanne, who smiled calmly at him, then he sighed, "I am not willing to put you two in danger again and due to the fact Lyserg just quit the X-Laws, we are not qualified to join in with the others as team X-I."
Jane got up her hands were in the form of fists her long blue bangs covered her eyes, but yet the others felt a dark aura that they knew…she was mad.
"I will not allow my niece to be killed along with my future nephew-in-law. So I will be making the decision, got it!"
{A FEW MINUTES LATER…. :D}
"he, he. I would have never thought Jane-sama would have a mean bone in her body." Lyserg said from the back of Marco's oversouled car, as he scratched the back of his head nervously.
Jeanne, who sat beside him, smiled for she'd never seen that side of her mom either.
Marco pushed his glasses upward with one hand as he drove on. "Now do not talk about Jane-sama behind her back."
"That really is not nice." Jane stated looking from behind her to where Lyserg and Jeanne were seating.
"Now are you two ready?" she asked the with a smile.
They both nodded, "we're ready. Ready…"
...
"Are you ready, Ren?" a sweet Jun had said with her most innocent look yet.
Ren frowned and looked away, "I've been ready, since I was about to leave."
"I'm ready too!" Macchi announced holding her broom in her hands.
Ren turned to look out to the dark night sky which sparkled lightly with the help of the luminous stars that floated around in it.
"let's go Bason," he ordered. Bason appeared beside his master and followed him and the girls out the door, as his small but great Master thought in his head:
'We're all ready…'
...
"Could you two hurry up?" an angry Ainu shaman asked impatiently towards his little sister and Mari.
Pirika and Mari came in carrying huge bags each and threw them to the ground, they fell with a loud THUMP on the ground.
"Okay, we're ready Onii-chan!" she announced excitedly, she looked at her brother who only held a small book bag in his hands.
"Onii-chan, are you sure you're ready?" she asked him referring to him not taking so many things for the trip.
"Heh, you're really asking me that question?"
Horohoro closed his eyes and looked out the door. A blanket of snow had covered his village, and the light of the moon reflected the flakes that were on the ground. It made one be lost in their thoughts, such as Horo was now.
'Of course I'm ready…'
...
"Okay you two," Chocolove began to announce "prison can wait until I finish saving Yoh, but in the meantime…" he slung his bag over his shoulder.
"I'm as ready as the others."
...
The long haired brunette started off into the black sky which was filled by the usual lights of white flakes called stars. It was amazing how just the sight of these lights gave even Asakura Hao something to make him be lost in his thoughts as well.
"What are you doing?" an icy voice had asked him disturbing.
Even though he didn't need to, the Asakura turned to see his wife [yea wife. Read my writers note at the end to understand if you don't] standing beside him, her arms crossed, and an Anna-like look on her face.
She had just changed out of her school uniform and wore a black jumper dress that came down to her a little more above knee high, with white knee-high socks that showed only about two inches of skin from the dress to the top of the socks.
Her golden blond hair was similar to Anna's, but Annaka's came down past her waist, and she wore no shoes.
Hao looked at her for a bit as she sat down beside him, not even scared of the fact that maybe one of them would wall off the roof.
"You didn't answer my Question, Hao." She said impatiently.
"Lying here, under the starry sky, makes sorting out my thoughts much easier. It's more comfortable up here. You should know that, seeing as you use to watch the sky with me five-hundred years ago." He said as-a-matter-of-factly.
"True, but even though I can also read minds doesn't make it any easier to understand you." She told him. "But I know you're thinking of Yoh-san."
"I'm not the only one who is. Teams X-I, The Ren, and the others are as well. They are all saying the same thing. 'I am ready'."
Annaka looked at him a bit confused. "Ready for what?"
Hao smiled and while he said these words the others from far away who were coming all said:
"Ready to see Yoh."

ANNAKA IS HIS WIFE FROM 500 YRS AGO, BUT SHE'S ALSO THE SHAMAN QUEEN OF HER TIME. SHE EVEN HAD A CHILD OF HIS AT THAT TIME. SHE LOOKS TONS LIKE ANNA BESIDES HER RED EYES AND BELOW WAIST-LINE HAIR. HER CLOTHING WAS REVEALED IN THIS CHAPTER WHICH IS SIMILAR TO ANNA'S FALL OUTFIT IN THE MANGA, EXCEPT INSTEAD OF A TURTLE NECK DRESS, SHE WEARS A JUMPER DRESS. ANNAKA WAS BROUGHT INTO THIS TIME BY ANNA WHO SUMMOND HER SPIRIT AND ASANOHA'S ALONG WITH OTHERS LIKE ANOHOL'S BROTHER, AND CHROME, PLUS JANE AND WAS ABLE TO RETURN THEIR SPIRITS TO THEIR OLD BODIES. THE THINK WITH ANNAKA THOUGH IS SHE DIED AT AN OLDER AGE THEN SHE IS NOW, SO ANNA HAD TO DO SOME 'MODIFICATIONS' TO HER BODY TO MAKE HER AROUND THE AGE HAO IS NOW.
OKAY NOW I KNOW SOME STUFF IS A BIT CONFUSING AND I DON'T REALLY WANT TO SPOIL THE STORY BUT…..GOMEN!
IF U DON'T WANT SPOILERS DO NOT READ WHATS UNDER THIS SECTION.
[U HAV BEEN WARNED]
OKAY BEFORE I WANTED TO START ON M ENDING FOR FUNBARI NO UTA, I WANTED TO DO LIKE A LITTLE CENTER STORY THAT TELLS WHY ANNA N YOH WERE AWAY FOR 6 YRS, AND WHY IS TAMAO SO MUCH LIKE ANNA 6YRS LATER. SO THIS IS A MID-SEQUAL TO MY PREVIOUS STORY, BUT SINCE SO MANY WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO ANNAKA AND HAO 5OO YRS AGO THAT WILL BE INCLUDED :D
PLUS WE GET TO FIND OUT ABOUT ANNA'S LIFE BEFORE SHE MET YOH.
I'M VERY EXCITED OF THIS STORY! WISH ME LUCK N I HOPE U eNJOY IT!
