Hey, back from camp, got a new nickname Pyro…don't ask, long stary short, I'm really good at making bon fires so…yeah.
I got back early so I'm updating this now so enjoy I guess.
"Huh? Nii-Chan left?" Yoh exclaimed. It was morning and he was stuffing his face with breakfast. Anna was still sleeping in her room. Even if she was awake Yoh and everyone else doubted that she would come down to eat with them.
"Yes, and don't talk with your mouth full!" Ren said annoyed, whipping food off his face.
"G-Gomen," Yoh apologized. "But, did he say where he was going?"
"Who cares? I'm glad he's gone, he's so annoying!" HoroHoro yelled, spitting food all over Ren's face.
"WHY YOU-!" and thus, the food fight started.
Anna POV
'Why is this idiot so annoying-'
'Man, his temper hasn't changed-'
'I hope they don't go too far…'
I closed my eyes as their thoughts from down stairs went through my head. I wrapped my arms the thigh part of my legs, sitting by my window looking out but not really seeing.
Last night events went through my mind.
Yoh…
He was helping me without realising it. Just by being there, by caring, it helped. But I didn't want his help, it would just hurt him in the end like with Matamune.
'Isn't that sweet, looks like the cold hearted bitchy Itako isn't as cold as everyone thinks.'a cold voice laughed. I closed my eyes.
'Get lost…' I thought, hatred going through me.
'You hate me? After the power I gave you? Melin was more appreciate then you," the voice said.
'What?'
'Surprise!'
I opened my eyes and looked back outside.
Ren and HoroHoro were fighting again. Their thoughts are strange.
However stupid HoroHoro is, and slow, when it comes down to battle, he can be smart for a strategy. When he remembers not to go rushing in from his anger.
Ren fights to stay calm more because he knows if he doesn't, he'll lose. He also is more suspicious of things then the others. He's not as slow as HoroHoro or as trusting as Yoh.
Yoh…
I can't read his thoughts unless there's a strong feeling to them. At first it was annoying but now…it's comforting. It doesn't burn when I do hear his thoughts. It's almost…soothing, like a cool breeze.
'wow, she looks more pretty then usual right now,' My face felt warm as I looked towards my door. Yoh was standing there starring at me. His face went red when I looked over.
"Hey Anna, how are you?" He grinned sheepishly. He walked over and sat beside me.
"Tired. Your friends are loud," I looked back outside. They were still fighting.
"Yeah, they went outside after the food fight. I had to clean it all up," he admitted.
"I see," I mumbled. "Why are you in here?"
"Well you said a way I could help you was by not leaving. So, I decided to keep you company while our friends are fighting." he grinned, being careful to empathise the "Our" part.
Normal POV
Anna frowned, though her eyes were soft. She was grateful that he was there for her, but she would never say it out loud.
"Anna…" Yoh started but his voice trailed off. Anna looked at him, her eyebrow raised.
"That voice…when you hear it…can you, do you, talk to it? Or him or…" his voice trailed off again.
Anna looked at him, considering what to say. "Him. And if I do talk to him, they're five second conversations and are mostly one-sided." she said.
"Oh…" Yoh didn't really like the sound of that. "What-"
"Someone's here," Anna interrupted, standing.
"who?" Yoh stood up quickly.
She didn't say anything. She was looking at the door as the sound of foot steps running became clearer.
The door opened to reveal HoroHoro, panting, and looking scared.
"Nani?" Anna said.
"There's…There's someone here…for Anna…"
Anna looked around her, annoyance clearly on her face. The back yard was almost destroyed, dirt everywhere, pots chattered. Ren was breathing hard, holding his side where he was injured.
In front of them were a girl and boy. It was obvious that they were related, both were medium height, green eyes, and light brown hair. The boys hair was kinda spiky while the girls reached up to her shoulders. The boy had on black pants with two silver belts attacked and a white t-shirt and a black earring on his left ear.
The girl was wearing white boy shorts and a baggy black shirt, two thick silver stud bracelets on her right wrist along with a red glove and a black one on her left.
"Ren, your pretty weak if you couldn't beat these two," Anna commented walking up to him.
"They…caught me by surprise," he muttered. Anna nodded.
"I see, well, I can't say I'm surprised. You are the weakest next to HoroHoro," looking toward the two people, her eyes narrowed. "you have some guts coming here and attacking."
"Huh, so you're the Itako Kira-Sama told us about," The boy said curiously. 'She's really cute,' he thought.
A fist came at him, aiming at his head. He barely dodged it, jumping back with his companion.
"I didn't say you could think things about me like that," Anna said coldly as Zenki disappeared.
"Gomen, Gomen," The boy said, looking scared. The girl beside him frowned.
"Oni-Chan your such a pig," she said, glaring at her brother before her gaze rested on Anna. And don't you dare hurt him."
Yoh, who was behind Anna, frowned. "What do you two want?" he asked.
"Kira-Sama wanted me and my sister to give you all a message," The boy said. "Oh, and my name Luke, this is my twin sister Sakura." (Pronounced Sa-Ku-Ra, like in the English version of CardCaptor Sakura)
"I see. He wants us to know that he'll be free soon," Anna said. Sakura glared at her. "Message delivered, now get off my property."
"Damn in, Stop reading our minds!" Sakura yelled, holding up her right hand. "Kamaitachi into the glove!" a flash of pink light shot into the air and came down on her hand. It glowed until soon it looked like a giant claw.
She charged at Anna, ready to slice her.
As she brought her hand down she felt something hard hot her hand.
"Stop this right now. You have no reason to hurt Anna," Yoh said. He had Harusame out in O.S, blocking her attack.
Sakura glared at him. "Yes I do, I have every right to hurt her, to kill her even!" she shouted, hatred in her eyes.
Behind him, Yoh heard Anna's small gasp and glanced back at her. Her eyes were wide, a shocked looked in them.
"Sakura, stop it, we were ordered not to attack her or him." Luke put his hand on her shoulder, trying to calm her.
"But-"
"No." he gave her a hard look. She sighed and cancelled the Over Soul.
"Fine," she said. With one last glare at Anna, she turned around and just disappeared.
"What the-" Ren said.
"how did she do that?" HoroHoro exclaimed.
"Well, see you guys later," Luke held up a peace sign with his fingers before disappearing also.
"That was strange," Amidamaru said as Yoh cancelled his Over Soul. "They both seem very strong yet they just left.
"Well from the sounds of it, they would have gotten in trouble if they attacked me or Anna," Yoh sheathed his sword and looked back at Anna, but she wasn't there anymore.
She kneeled on the floor of her room, clutching her head, her eyes closed and teeth gritted together against the burning pain she felt.
"Yes I do, I have every right to hurt her, to kill her even!" Sakura's words stung, but it was what she and her brother thought that caused Anna this pain.
'She's the one that killed our parents seven years ago.'
Uh oh, now things are really turning.
Anna's pain is getting worse, and even though she's now letting Yoh help, it might be too late.
Next time, Something unexpected happens that will change both of their lives, and the people around them, forever.
