Hao: -_-;;

Ominias: ^v^ Just as a note, I'm making Hao very out of character, being more of a jokester. But, he will have fun doing it! ^^x

Hao: o.o "..."

Disclaimer: Me no own. Got it? .

Hao arrived in Funbari Hill about 5 days after, since he had made sure his injuries had healed before hand. (What was he going to do? Waltz over there with half of his ribs broken only to find that he was lying on the floor, dead again? Not gonna happen.) He sat in a tree a little less than a block away from Yoh's house, twirling the orange flower in between his fingertips. He stared at it. It was still living cheerfully, even though other plants would have withered by then, and especially with it's greater exposion to heat. 'Just like Yoh' He thought. He smiled a little, not a smirk but a genuine smile.

He turned his head as he saw Yoh leaving the Asakura residence with weights on his legs and arms. Anna's training, no doubt. Hao tempted to make Yoh trip. He bit his nail. Grr, bad temptation. Well, it can't hurt. Hao grinned.

"UWAAH!"

'Boom'

Making sure to be out of earshot, Hao laughed hard, clutching his stomach. Man that was fun! Jokes aside, he'd have to wait until Yoh gets back before he visits. A slap in the face while the other shamans in the room rushed to get him kicked out was not a cheerful thought. (Hey, does anyone else like being slapped across the face? -_-)

Morning came to evening as Yoh finally rounded the corner to his home. Yoh has it hard with Anna, it seems. Hao waited about half an hour after Yoh came in. since he didn't want to look as if he was waiting for Yoh to come back. (Which was exactly what he had done.) He jumped lightly out of the tree he was sitting in, and landed gracefully to the ground. He walked cautiously to the front door, and knocked gently. He heard the pounding of several feet rushing to the door, and bickering on who was going to answer. He just stood there calmly, but he felt a flicker of worry in the pit of his stomach.

Then the door bashed open.

Out came a blue-haired boy, who he came to know as Horo Horo, and a man with an elvis style hairdo, who's name was Ryu. Man, no Yoh.

Both of the eyes of the people who were lying in the door looked up, and widened. They scrambled up, and their faces had expressions of fright and surprise. The person standing before them was the one person who they wished to never see again.

"Hao!"

Yay!!! This chapter is a bit shorter, and I don't think it was as good.... Please give suggestions and review!!!!! Please!!!!!! I'll make Anna do something to Hao!!!

Hao: O.O "WHAT?!"

Ominias: (sweatdrops) Uhm...Ok, maybe not....

Hao: (sends death glare)

Ominias: Eek! (runs away) "REVIEW!!!"
