Silence met with Anna's words as the others starred at he in disbelief. They couldn't, wouldn't, accept what she just said.

"Devoured…his Soul?" Ren chocked out.

"How…is that even possible?" Chocolove asked.

"Are you sure?" HoroHoro asked Anna, who was glaring toward where Kira stood. "Maybe your mistaken, maybe-"

"Are you calling me a liar!" Anna snapped at him. HoroHoro didn't say anything. How could he? Not to long ago Anna was trying to help kill everyone of what Kiyoko said was true and now she could be-

Anna's eyes flashed dangerously as she heard his thoughts. Before she could say anything Hao spoke.

"It's true. I can't feel his Aura in this world. His Soul is gone," He smiled sadly. "Ironic. I was going to do the same thing but now I'm angry that I've seen someone else do it."

"Hao…" for once HoroHoro and the others were lost for words.

"It's my fault." they looked at Anna. Her hands were clenched together, shaking. "I let him get to me. I let my self give in, now Yoh's gone."

"Anna-Sama," Kiyoko spoke up. Anna looked at her. She didn't recognise her at first then realised who she was.

"You…" Kiyoko nodded.

"I…I think it might work, as long as his body still breathes…" She said quietly. Anna's eyes narrowed as she heard her thoughts but didn't say anything. Kiyoko gave her a pleading look.

"What are you talking about?" Lyserg asked,, confused.

"It doesn't matter." Anna turned around. "Fight Kira, weaken him"

"What are you going to do?" Ren asked.

Anna's eyes flashed darkly. "I'm going to destroy him with Hao's help."


Yoh opened his eyes, feeling sore all over. He sat up, rubbing the back of his head. He looked around the familiar place. At first he was panicking. Why was he here? Then he remember what happened and felt upset.

"I couldn't save Anna…" he whispered.

"You have. Be patient Yoh-San," Yoh froze at the familiar voice. He looked over his shoulder and his eyes widened.

"It's you…"


"GAH!'

'REN!"

HoroHoro watched as Ren was thrown back, hitting a tree full force. He got back to his feet quickly but he seemed a little winded.

"This is fun," Kira smirked. He didn't have a single scratch on him.

"Guys…how can we beat him?" Chocolove panted, a cut on his right arm.

"Maybe…" Lyserg muttered.

"What?" Ren noticed him thinking of something.

"We might have to use the Element Spirits to fight," Lyserg said quietly to them.

"Hmm, Might work," Ren nodded. "So I'm guessing you have a plan?"

Lyserg nodded. "It might not be enough to beat him, but it will give Anna and Hao time to perform that spell."

Meanwhile, Anna, Hao, and Kiyoko were standing a ways off, getting ready. Anna was standing in the middle of a circle that was clear of snow, leaving the stone clear. There were words written in an ancient language she didn't know around it.

"You sure you can handle it?" Hao asked, frowning.

"Yes."

"But Anna-Sama, it might put stress on your body!" Said Kiyoko, clearly panicking. (Play Brave Heart for better effect) "You might have a miss-"

"Shut up. Your not the only one who knows spells," Anna said coldly.

Kiyoko's eyes widened. "What-"

"How do you think I've made it this far?" Anna smirked. Hao, despite himself and the satiation, chuckled.

"Always prepared, huh Anna?" he said.

She nodded. "Get ready." Hao stepped back so he was three meters outside the circle. He pulled out five slips of paper.

"Kiyoko, please watch Yoh for me," Anna said, holding her right arm in front of her. Kiyoko nodded but still seemed upset about something.

"Anna-Sama, I'm sorry, I-"

"Don't worry about it," She was shocked to see a small smile on her face. She wasn't mad? "Oh, I am mad. I'm just going to deal with you after we get rid of this guy and get my Fiancé's Soul back."

Kiyoko's eyes widened before she smiled. "Hai!" she turned and ran back to were Yoh's body lay.

Hao watch her go before turning back to Anna. "She reminds me of Opacho a little, even if she is 13. You'll be a good mother Anna."

'That's what Yoh said'

Anna closed her eyes and started to concentrate. Holding her right arm out she chanted, "I call upon the 1080, heal yourself from the darkness from which you were tainted from and come to my aid once again…"

xXxXxXx

"Now Chocolove!"

'God Breath Hurricane!" Slicing gusts of wind and broken branches flew toward Kira, attacking him from all angles.

"This won't work!" he shouted. With one movement of his arm, his Furyoku blasted around him, destroying the wind instantly.

"Magma Upper!" His eyes widened as the Spirit of Fire stretched out it's arm, showering him in fire.

"Kisama!" Kira yelled. He sent the same attack towards Lyserg and Chocolove but Ren was one step ahead of him.

"Magnetic Field!" A large magnetic shield appeared in front of them, repelling Kira's attack. "Now HoroHoro!" Ren shouted.

"Porowaok Ererupus Shinupuri!" A giant Icicle appeared over Kira's head just before it came crashing down on him, crushing him.

HoroHoro landed on his feet, trying to see through the dust cloud and fog his attack made. "Did we get him?"

A loud explosion came, revealing a murderous looking Kira. His robes were torn, a cut on his forehead.

"Hmm, looks like without Anna your hopeless," Ren sneered. To his surprise, Kira Smirked.

"Yeah right." He said. "Papestin."

HoroHoro's eyes widened as the snow behind Kira flew up and headed towards them.

"No way…" he whispered.

"Move Baka!" Ren tackled him out of the way, just barely saving him. "Kisama, What's your problem!" Ren yelled at him.

HoroHoro had a shocked look on his face. "That…That attack…" he said. "It-It was-"

"Kihêw's, that's right," Kira said, amused.

"Why do you know that attack!" HoroHoro shouted.

"Because," Kira laughed. "Just like Asakura, I devoured her soul. And everyone else's that is."

Lyserg's eyes widened as he exchanged a look with Chocolove.

"So…that's how she knew it was him," Chocolove said. Lyserg nodded.

"yeah, that explains why their throats were cut,"

"What?" HoroHoro looked at them.

"We found their bodies just before we heard Anna's scream and came out here," Lyserg explained. "Kiyoko knew it was him and why it happened."

Kira stopped laughing and was now frowning. "Kiyoko, I knew I should have killed her from the beginning." he said.

"Shut up!" Lyserg shouted.

"oh, seems I upset you. Oh well, you can all join Asakura after this."

"Yes, they can. At my Inn were I'll be making them work,"

They turned to see Anna standing behind them, a blank look on her face. She still had Yoh's head phones around her neck and she had ripped the bottom of her Kimono so it reached up to her knees. In her hand were the once again Pure White 1080 beads. Hao was right behind her, looking calm.

"Anna,"

Kira's eyes narrowed when he saw her. "Do you really think you'll survive all this?"

"Of course," Anna said matter-of-factly. "Yoh already broke his promise to make me Shaman King. I'm not going to let him break the one about building me an Inn."

'that's Anna for you…'

'An Inn, she'll be a scary hostess…'

'Yoh has his work cut out for him when he gets back…'

'Wait, when did we say we'll work for her?'

Anna smiled softly as she heard her friends thoughts. They were the same no matter what they were faced with.

"You seem to think that idiot will come back." Kira said angrily, but really he was nervous. If the 1080 were back to normal that meant her power was…

"He will. I'm not going to be a single mother just because that idiot was careless," she placed one on stomach before holding up the 1080. "Everyone now!"

"RIGHT!"

"Ice Age!" HoroHoro and Chocolove combined their spirits together, making a violent freezing wind .

"Volcano!" Lyserg made a shield of fire, stopping Kira's counter attack.

"Jiu Long Bao Lei!" Bolts of lightening shot down, hitting Kira.

"Damn it…" he muttered, falling on to his knees covered in burns.

Anna closed her eyes and started chanting something the others couldn't hear. Then her eyes snapped open. They were glowing an eerie light blue, showing that she was in a trance.

A light surrounded Kira, trapping him where he was. He let out a yell of anger and frustration.

"You bitch!" He threw an attack of Dark Furyoku as her but it never reached her. It just flew past her. His eyes widened.

"I don't think your attacks can harm her now that her heart has opened again, Ousama Oni." Hao smirked, stepping forward. He held up the five slips of paper from before, but now they had writing on them. He threw for of them, one on each of Kira's Arms and legs.

"Damn it, what are you doing?" he shouted.

"Destroying you." Anna said coldly. She walked up to Hao and took the last slip from him. "Even Hell is more then you deserve."

With that, she threw it towards Kira, who let out a cry of terror. It pierced him through the head and his body disintegrated, leaving ashes where it once stood.


"So, what are you going to do Yoh-San?"

Yoh shrugged. He was sitting on the end of a Clift, looking at the blank sky…if that's what it was.

"I don't really know how to get back," he said. "I mean, I can still feel my body breathing to I know I'm not dead…I hope, but…how do I leave?"

The person beside him shook his head. "I do not know Yoh-San."

Yoh sighed before grinning. "Well, it'll work out. It's my second time here but at least I get to see you again"

His friend nodded. "Yes, I am also glad to see once more Yoh-San."


Kira's finally gone, but how will they get Yoh back? Even he doesn't know.

Speaking of which where is he exactly? And who is he with?
