Since I don't know when will I receive reviews I'll just continue to the next chapter.
Disclaimer: I don't own Shaman King & all of it's characters. I wish I did though.
"Thank you Ren," Yoh said as he handed Hao to Ren "You're a lifesaver! Well I have to get going. I still need to choose what can I give him. Jya!" Yoh said as he waved his arm to Ren while he started to run to the mall.
"Yoh-dono wait for me!" said the samurai as he chases after the boy.
"sigh, Bason what did we get ourselves into just now?" said Ren as he headed to the inn.
"I don't know bocchama..." Bason shook his head as he try to think of how big a mess they've gotten into.

"Amidamaru, what do you think of this?"
"I think it looks good on you Yoh-dono."
"No Amidamaru, do you think Hao will like this?"
"Uh... I think so."
"Sigh, it's no good" said Yoh as he gives the clothes he bought to the counter "I don't think we'll make it & the thing is I haven't even told Anna I'll go shopping." Yoh said worriedly. "Anna will really kill me later if she finds out I haven't even finished the first 50 miles."
"Yoh-dono"
Yoh started weeping anime style all of the sudden. "Do suru na Amidamaru!?"
"Yoh-dono..."
"Tonikaku, if we want to see the next sunrise we might as well buy this, ask them to gift wrap it & run like hell back so that--"
"So what?!"
Yoh stiffened all of the sudden hoping that the voice he heard wasn't the voice he heard. 'Please don't let it be her, please don't let it be her, please don't let it be her, please don't let it be her, please don't let it be--'
"Akan na yo, Yoh"
Yoh slowly turned his head to face his fear. Unfortunately for Yoh, it is her. The cause of his nightmares.
"A-anna i-it's a surprise to see you here... ehehe--"
"Nani ga okashi?" Anna said as her stare bears holes into her fiancé. "And do you mind explaining this?!" she says as she pulls a certain someone that got tied by her beads.
Yoh's eyes widen as he stares at the poor guy that got caught by Anna.
"Anna I-I can explain--"
"Is he the reason why you skipped your exercise & spend our money on useless things?!" Anna lowered her voice to the known dangerous level that can even make the heavens bow down to its knees.
"Y-yes"
"And is that the reason to why Ren brought this guy to the inn?"
"Y-y-yes"
He was done for. He could feel it gushing through his veins. As he await for her judgement to befall him, she answered:
"Ii yo, I'll let him stay," Anna said as she stares at the gift her fiancé bought for his currently unconscious twin.
As Yoh heard those words his face brightened & loosened a bit.
"H-hontou ga?!"
"Aa but in one condition..."
Yoh stiffened as he knows that if Anna was the one who'll set the conditions it's like hell's getting ready to break lose.
"W-what's t-t-the c-c-condition, Anna?"
"Well, for starters you'll do thrice the amount of training you should do daily & a new exercise technique that I'm SURE you'll love." Anna said as a newly formed smirk gets plastered on her face.
"W-what's the new exercise technique?"
"You'll see, you'll see."
'I have a bad feeling about this.' Yoh thought as he gulped down the tension & excess saliva from within his mouth. Anna's smirk grew a little then afterwards it vanished into thin air.
"Um Anna..."
"What is it Yoh?"
"Can you let him go now?"
"Why not? Afterall you DID agree to the conditions right?"
"Y-yeah I did..."
"Very well." as soon as she uttered those words, she released her fiancé's twin and then uttered sai & made a hand gesture and a seal that was made on Hao broke & he awoke as if he had just risen from a seemingly endless dream.
"Yawn, What happened and why do I feel like someone placed a binding seal on me?"
"Well..."
"I don't think we need to tell you. You'll find out anyway." Anna said as she stepped on Yoh's foot with her sandal.
"Itai mo, Anna" said Yoh teary-eyed as he crouch down to hold his foot.
"Oh sou ka..." said Hao as he just finished using his reishi ability on both his otouto & soon to be aniyome. "Tonikaku, Anna why did you even have to step on Yoh's foot?"
"Why do you care?"
"Well seeing that your new exercise technique will involve the use of both the his ashi, heiki, te & kakyaku not to mention his atama. Don't you think he'll be handicapped for it starting tomorrow?"
"Iie. I think that's just right."
"I'm starting to get the idea that you want me to arthritis in my next life." said Hao as he glanced at Yoh then back at Anna with a smile on his face.
"hmm... that's a thought."
"Eh? hontou ga?"
"Joudanda."
"Sou ka..."
With that they laughed as if they don't care about the surrounding people staring at them filled with confusion. After a few moments they both took deep breaths & ceased themselves from laughing.
"Tonikaku, I think the others are done with their shopping so let's go back now."
"What are they shopping for?" the twins said in unison.
"You'll see."
Author's note: since I don't know when I'll receive a review for this, I'll just keep leaving it at cliffhangers like these first 2 chapters. So please review so that I'll feel more encouraged to continue this.
