The week went super-fast. I don't even know how, or why but, after our new history teacher. Everything seemed to be so good, like my life seemed easier and better for some reason.

"Yoh-kun? Are you okay?" Manta suddenly as I sat my teeth on the melon bread that I held in my hand. I chewed on it as I looked at him wondering.

"What do you mean?" I asked him curiously as I chewed on it.

The rest of the guys also seemed to be interested as they all looked at me and Manta.

I wonder if Hao likes melon bread. I mean yeah, they are super delicious, but it's like – not everyone likes them. I like all kind of food, well, not all kind of. Sweet stuff is good, but not too sweet, that just makes me feel nauseous.

"Earth to Yoh-kun!" Manta suddenly shouted as I jumped in shock while staring at him wide-eyed.

"W-What was that for Manta?" I asked him as I almost choked on the bread that was in my mouth. God that was dangerous, I could of have died.

"You have been this way all this time after our new history teacher arrived. Why is that? Do you guys know each other or something, I mean Lyserg-kun has also been acting weird, but you are acting more strange than you have ever done!" Manta explained – or at least tried to.

Chuckling I shook my head at him. Putting down the melon bread I smiled at him.

"Don't worry Manta, everything is fine. I'm actually feeling very good and haven't had any nightmares or those weird attack kind of feelings a whole week!" I said smiling at him as he looked at me unsure, before signing and nodding his head back smiling.

"Well… okay, if you say so Yoh-kun." He answered before eating his food own food.

I looked at Ren that has been sitting all this while quietly listening to us while staring at me in deep thought. Wondering I poked his cheek as he suddenly jumped away and stood up.

"No, Manta is right. After that Hao guy showed up, you have been acting weird. You haven't been acting your normal self. You're supposed to be the laid back, lazy Yoh that we know, not the hyper, girl in love type of guy. I don't know what happened, but I'm going to find out, because I want my friend back." Were his last words, as he walked away us without even having touched the food that was on his tray.

I watched him disappear out the cafeteria door as I felt something flicker inside me. I felt irritated – very irritated from his words. How can he say something like that? Why say something about me, not being me? What the hell was that supposed to be?

"Yoh-kun… Ren is kind of right…you haven't been acting yourself. It's as if you're a whole new person." Manta suddenly said making me look at him with a glare.

"The fuck is your problem with me being happy shorty? If me being happy is bothering you guys so much then why are you guys with me? Why the fuck, is me being happy for once, have anything to do with me being another person all of a sudden?" I almost shouted standing up making the chair fall behind me.

The cafeteria suddenly became silent. I stared at Manta that looked back wide eyed and shocked. But the hell I cared, what the fuck was their problem? Aren't I allowed to be happy? For once, there is a person that comes into my life not doing much, but enough to make me smile with just the sight of him?

"Y-Yoh-kun…I-I'm sorry, i didn't mean it like that-" he stuttered pain clearly shown in his eyes but I just shook my head glaring.

"Spare it, I don't need your fucking excuses for that." I said as I walked off and out the door before running off outside.

Leaning against the old tree that has been there for almost a 100 years, was comforting me. I felt horrible; it's as if I wasn't myself. That wasn't me talking, what the hell is going on?

"I said all those horrible things to him! How could i? I didn't even think about it, it was all so cloudy, I couldn't control my body or my tongue. God what is going on here?" I shouted as I hit the tree hard feeling my hand shake slightly from the force.

I looked down and found my fist bleeding.

"Great…" I mumbled before suddenly pictures flashed in front of me. I blinked stumbling backwards before falling to the ground staring in shock.

Blood everywhere, shamans fighting, people screaming - It was horrible.

I closed my eyes tightly as I shook my head trying to get those images away. No – not again.

"Yoh-kun, are you okay?" suddenly a voice I knew too well said. I felt shivers in my spine as I looked up and was met by the oh-too-familiar dark brown sharp eyes.

"Yes, I'm fine, just a little bit dizzy that's all." I said trying to get my way out of there; I was turning weird after being with him. I have to get away.

"Are you sure? You don't seem to be that fine in my eyes, you look very restless, is something bothering you?" he continued asking walking towards me as I shook my head forcing a smile as I backed away.

"Y-yeah, I'm sure sensei. Please don't bother with me, I'm just the typical stay-up-late student that didn't get his sleep and regretting it now." I answered trying not to look into his eyes as my mind tried to find out a way for me to get out of this situation without looking suspicious or rude.

"excuse me sensei but I have to go now, m-my friends are waiting for me." I said as I tried to run off only to feel a hand grab my elbow and stopping me midway.

"I heard you in the cafeteria; you were fighting with your friend. Are you okay? Is it something you want to talk about Yoh-kun? Let's go to my place so that we can have our long chat and where you could also have your rest " he said as he stared into my eyes as my mind once again started to blurry and I felt sudden pain in my chest before everything turned into a slow motion.

I felt nauseous and my chest hurt, I didn't know what was going on. Everything was spinning, and I wanted to say something, but my mouth felt so weird, I didn't have the power to speak and soon enough my feet seemed to lose their strength as I fell to the ground just lying there.

I looked up as I found a dark shadow stand over me. I shook my head, but it seemed to take so much time. I wanted to say something, ask the shadow to go away. But I couldn't, I didn't have the power.

Everything turned dark before a suddenly fire flared up brightening the place. I looked around and found myself floating. There were people running around in panic – some were covered in blood, while others covered in dirt and burn marks.

Screams filled the air as I saw a gigantic spirit appear with a person standing on top, then the spirit suddenly disappeared. It seemed unreal, like I was in some weird old place. I suddenly found myself standing there, in front of someone.

The person – seemed so familiar.

"Don't do this. Please, this isn't you!" the person begged as I felt myself grab him. I looked into the persons eyes and found myself staring into green ones.

"YOH-KUN! PLEA-!" before he could say anything else I felt myself break his neck. The sound was sharp and fast. Crack. Snapped in two. I let go of the person and stepped back. As the light suddenly shined over the person I found myself staring at the familiar face. Green hair, green eyes, feminine looking. Lyserg.

NO!

I stepped back in shock as I stared at his lifeless body.

No no no no nooo!

This couldn't be happening, I didn't do this. I did not just kill my friend. This is impossible.

I looked around and screamed in shock as I found all my friends lying on the ground all dead around me.

I ran to all of them, checking their pulse. Trying to find something – something to make them live again. Anything.

I fell to the ground crying as I looked around myself. How could this be happening? What is going on?

"This is who you are my little brother." A sudden voice said making me jump around looking up. I found Hao standing there looking at me with a smile.

"I am so proud of you Yoh. Getting so strong, and taking down the weak ones. Only the strong ones get to live, the weak ones will die – they would have died anyway I mean, weak are weak nothing to do about it." The said with a chuckle as he looked around.

He was covered in blood. I glared at him before shaking my head.

"No, this is wrong! I'm not like this, I don't kill!" I shouted at him as I back away only to find myself stumbling over something and him laughing at my face when I found myself sitting over Rens lifeless body.

I scooted myself away as I stood up and ran off - from him, his laugher everything. No, this can't be happening! I didn't kill them, I'm not a killer!

"Yoh, you cant possibly think you can run away – from me, your maker?" Hao suddenly said as I felt something grab me and I felt myself being lifted off the ground and held there in mid-air I don't know how many meters off the ground.

"This is your true self brother –take a look." He suddenly said as I found a mirror appear in front of me. I stared into the reflection and found eyes yellow-orange like flames burning dangerously staring right back at me. There were black weird tattoos over my whole body, black flaring hair, two horns sticking out of my forehead and sharp-knife-likes nails. I screamed at the frightening sight and couldn't look more.

"No this isn't me stop it!" I screamed at him as I shook my head. I tried to get out of the grip, but it was impossible. I didn't know what held me, but it was something strong. The only thing I managed to move was my feet and my head; the rest of my body was captured and held by the strong force of grip around me.

"Oh, but my sweet little stupid brother, this is who you really are. This human body is just a disguise of your true self; it's like a costume for you you could say. You can't possibly think you could escape who you truly are, do you little brother?" Hao said as he stood in front of me smiling sadly.

"Why…why are you doing all of this?" I asked as I looked at him angry with tears in my eyes.

"For us, so that this world can get rid of the dirty humans, and only the strong and worthy like shamans can live! This world will belong to the shamans once again!" he said as he smiled happily looking around as if he could already see the world as he wished it to be.

"You're crazy!" I shouted and he suddenly stared at me annoyed.

"You know, you're certainly annoying when you're like this. Your true self is the one who killed your friends, not me. You Yoh!" he shouted angry as I remembered the image of my friends lying there on the ground bloody and lifeless.

"You did all of this Yoh… not me, you…" was his last words before the fire consumed him leaving me alone the in the dark.

"Yoh-kun wake up!" a voice shouted as i sat up fast and opened my eyes shocked looking around confused.

"W-What…what happened? Where am I?" I asked confused as I looked around finding myself in a white room.

Hao he was there, the bodies, my friends.

I looked up to the place where I heard the voice and found Ruy looking at me worried together with the rest of the guys. I found everyone, Ruy, Ren, Lyserg and Manta staring at me worried as I stared back in shock before tears suddenly started streaming down my face blurring my sight.
