Me: Chapter 7!

Hao: Would you stop listening to 'Shining Collection'!

Me: But I like that song! All songs in Gravitation! Hehe… Ryuichi has a pretty voice! Well, it's really Iceman's...

CHAPTER 7

The dinner was kind of odd. When the four of them left, they saw the that same dragon again. Ren's father was following them. The older Tao threw a sword at Ren, "It's a family heirloom. It's yours now," he said. Then the dragon turned and moved back to the castle. Ren smiled as he looked at the sword. It's cool steel against his hand, it's sharp blade was is good condition even after so many years. "You and your dad are bonding! How nice," Lyserg said. Ren blushed and said, "Oh shut up Lyserg,". Lyserg and Opacho laughed. Opacho was cold, the winds at this height were extremely fast. She clung on Lyserg's arm, and closed her eyes. The cave wasn't far, and it was soon that they had to go on the spirit of fire to America...

AIRPORT

Even though they were going to use the spirit of fire, they still wanted to see Yoh. The brunette was with the blue haired shaman and some tall guy. The tall man was sort of handsome in his own way. Like a bad boy handsome. He wore a white suit, that followed the muscles and curves of his body. When he saw Lyserg, he went on his knees and pulled a rose out of nowhere! "Will you be my happy place? I, Bokuto no Ryu will do everything I can to make you happy," he asked. Lyserg clung to Hao's arm, stunned. Then Opacho came in and kicked the guy in the shin (go Opacho!).

"Stay away from what is Hao-sama's!" the five year old yelled. Lyserg pulled her away and apologized for her behavior. Ren and Hao had big smirks on their faces. This was so funny. Then Ryu clasped his hands around Lyserg's smaller ones, and said, "It's okay, I understand that children can be that way miss.". And Ryu walked dramatically away. Lyserg stood there for a second, then became angry and started ranting. "I am not a girl!", "I don't look that girly, do I!", and "Son of a bitch!". Hao then hugged him and said it's okay if he looked like a girl, he still loved him.

Ryu, Horo, and Yoh saw this (they couldn't hear them), and Ryu slumped. "Well Yoh, what a little practice match. Ren, Lyserg!" Hao said. Ren then oversouled and attacked Ryu. Lyserg called for Morphine and he attacked Horo as well. Even though Ryu and Horo were fast enough to bring out their oversouls, they were pushed back. "Horo! Ryu!" Yoh gasped. Their bodies laid there fallen. Yoh ran to them, looking at Hao with anger. Hao smirked. "You and your friends get stronger, Okay Yoh?" Hao said and all of his followers took off in the spirit of fire.

They followed Horo's, Ryu's and Yoh's plane. Knowing it would crash soon. That's when they'd let Lyserg do his magic. Two days from when the plane crashed, Yoh and company found a town. Ryu decided to go somewhere in town to look for directions to Patch village, but couldn't find any. When he stepped out, he saw Lyserg. "Ah, hello again... uh- "Diethel Lyserg," Lyserg said. "I have come looking for allies, I heard that you are strong." Lyserg said. Ryu smirked and said, "So your looking for people who are strong like yourself?" Ryu asked. Lyserg's head looked down.

"No, I am weak." Lyserg said. God, he was a good actor. There were slight water in his eyes and everything. Ryu couldn't resist but try to help him. So he invited him to the team. But Horo wasn't exactly happy. "I thought you loved Hao! You people must think we're stupid," Horo yelled. Lyserg cupped his hands around his face and started crying. "How would you feel if you were put under a spell for 8 years and finally woken up? And you were the slave or lover or whatever to the man who killed your parents!" Lyserg cried. Yoh was sympathetic to Lyserg and put a hand on his shoulder. "Don't worry, I understand..." Yoh said.

Lyserg looked up with his tear stained cheeks and wiped his face clean. "But I need strong allies to defeat Hao, so I must need proof you are strong." Lyserg said and oversouled with Morphine. The hotel room's wall crashed and Horo and Yoh ran outside. Ryu ran to them, and prepared for battle as well. But when Horo tried to punch him with his oversoul, Lyserg wrapped the wire around him and tightened it's hold on him. Then snowboard wasn't the only thing that cracked. Horo's skin broke and his skin was covered in rivers of his own blood. Lyserg pulled the wire back, and it coiled around Ryu. He did the same thing to him. If he could kill Yoh now, then he was useless to Hao-kun.

But Yoh just stood still. Lyserg was unleashing that hate of his parents death on us. "Hey, who are you fighting?" Yoh asked. Yoh pulled Horo into his arms and carried him. Ryu was still able to walk, but he need Yoh for support. Lyserg had a fake glare and he yelled, "Don't you dare walk away from me Hao!". He jumped into the air and he used the wire to pull himself to the sign. Then let the wire go and he let himself fly. Yoh put Horo on the ground, and told Ryu to sit. Lyserg moved the wires to make it look like Big Ben upside down. "The place where I found my pendulum! The only thing left of my parents!" Lyserg screamed as he was about to collide with Yoh's head.

But then Yoh pulled out the sword and Lyserg landed roughly on the ground on his hands and knees. Sure, Lyserg was only using 5 percent, but it was still impressive that he was defeated. Then Lyserg faked out some sobs, and then looked at Yoh. "How can you not understand," it was then Yoh punched him on the cheek. His head turned from the force, and then he looked back at Yoh again. "That's for being so selfish," Yoh said. Lyserg made the tears fall down his cheek, and then Yoh pulled him up and hugged him. Then he pulled Lyserg back and said, "Why don't I listen to your story at the hospital? Come," Yoh said. Lyserg then smiled, and nodded.

Yoh carried Horo, and Ryu was helped by Lyserg. Lyserg sputtering out fake apologizes, but Ryu said he forgived him. 'This is easier than I thought,' Lyserg thought. When they got into the hospital for Horo's and Ryu's injuries, Lyserg offered them a check. It was from the account that his parents left when they died. They went into a diner, and Lyserg tried to explain his actions. "Hao came to my parents house, probably asking my father to join him. During that time, I was walking to Big Ben, trying to find my pendulum. I found it and was able to free Morphine. But when I ran home, my home was burning. My father was already dead and my mom... she was screaming cause she was being burned alive," Lyserg paused to wipe a fake tear.

"Then I saw Hao, and I couldn't control my body. I can't believe what came out of my mouth! I'm so weak," Lyserg said. Horo put a hand on his shoulder, and started crying. "That's so sad!" the ainu cried. Ryu cried as well. Then they stopped when Lyserg smiled at the fairy. "But I'll always have her. My spirit, Morphine. Her and the crystal pendulum," Lyserg said. Yoh smiled. "Well, we should go." Yoh said. Near by, Hao was watching. He smirked. If he never took Lyserg in, he would have made millions as an actor...

ON A TRUCK FULL OF HAY

They were riding the truck, still trying to find Patch village. "You know Lyserg, when you were fighting me. I think you were really fighting Hao. Remember, you even said, 'Don't you dare walk away from me Hao!' to me," Yoh said. Lyserg sighed. "I'm sorry, but you look so much like him." Lyserg said.

FLASHBACK

But Yoh just stood still. Lyserg was unleashing that hate of his parents death on us. "Hey, who are you fighting?" Yoh asked. Yoh pulled Horo into his arms and carried him. Ryu was still able to walk, but he need Yoh for support. Lyserg had a fake glare and he yelled, "Don't you dare walk away from me Hao!"...

FLASHBACKOVER

"Well, he is my onii-chan." Yoh said. Lyserg sighed and looked up at the sky. Hemissed Hao so much. "Hao," he whispered to himself. Everyone else thought it was anger, but it was sorrow in his tone. Where were Hao and Ren? He missed Opacho too. "I miss home. The hot springs that relax your muscles..." Ryu said. Then the biker looked at Lyserg and asked if he wanted to go to a hot springs. Lyserg nodded, and Horo cheered. Yoh smiled. Everyone seemed happy, but Yoh was worried. He could feel Hao somewhere close by. He had to watch Diethel-san...
