Diclaimer: You all know that I don't own Shaman King...or do I?

----------------------------

Tao Ren was sitting cheerfully at the computer, logged into a chatroom. Yes, he had nothing better to do with his time other than to idly waste precious hours of hisl ife on the internet.

Browsing through forums, he stumbled across an intriguing post.

Mesemerized, he scanned the post wide-eyed over and over again. The brain-imploding speech seemed to hypnotize the Chinese Shaman. Dazed, he continued to reread the post, a strange notation clicking somewhere in his infested brain. He stupidly opened his mouth and uttered a single phrase, under the spell of the chatspeaking n00bs...

"LyK oMg No WaI!!!111!!"

Seconds later, Jun called his name from outside his room. "Ren!"

"WuT iZ iT, jUn!!!111??/??//!?"

Jun paused and sweatdropped. "Uh...father wants to talk to you for a little bit."

"I dOnT wAnNa!!!11!!!" Ren whined. "iM hAvIn So MuCh FuN hErE!!!1!1!!"

Jun grabbed her little brother by the collar and began dragging him to their father's chambers. All the while, Ren was babbling non-stop illiteratly and rather incoherently.

"DiZ iZ sOooOOOooo0000ooOO nOt FaIr JuN!!!!11!!!" he screeched.

Within seconds, he found himself face-to-face with his fearsome father.

"lyk, wut do u want wit me, old man??//??" Ren demanded with a girlish pout plastered on his face.

His father proceeded to lecture him about family duties, how he had to train, the fate of the Tao, and so on and so forth. Ren glared at him, getting more and more bored by the second. At last, he interrupted the solemn speech.

"StOp HaRrAsSiNg mE u n0oBiE!!!111!!! im gunna report u 2 da adminz!!!!!!"

His father stared at his son in shock. What had happened? What could it be? A mysterious curse? A deadly illness, like cancer? An unknown birth defect whose effects were just kicking in?

"did u hear me dude!!//?!!//???!!!!?" Ren screeched, pointing accusingly at him. "i totali pwn u so shut ur fat mouth and leav me alon!!!! i hate flamrs dey r all teh n00bzies and u r the worstest n00bz 4eva!!!! lololololololololololol!!!! rofl!!!!!! ur gay!!!!! rofl!!!!!!!"

Tao En furrowed his massive brow and said, "My dearest son, I can't understand a single word you are saying."

"duh u cant itz becz u r teh noobiest noob eva!!!!11!!! omg u r sooo stoopid i cant beliv u r my father u stupid gay fatass!!11!!!!! literacy is soooOOOooo000ooooo overrated and u r such a n00b that i am rofl rite now!!!11!!"

Scowling, En demanded the nearby kyonshii to throw his son into the dungeons.

"OMGWTF dat is soooOOOooo unfair!!!1!!!!!!1111!!!!" Ren protested. "u r only jelouz becuz i am totalii kewl and u rnt!!! stupid fat old man i hate u 4eva!!!! u r 2 fat hav u evah considrd atkinz diet!!!??//!?"

As Ren was locked away "4eva," he screamed one final sentence of protest.

"LyK oMg I tOtAlIi h8 u 4evah u stoopid fat noobzie!!!111!!11!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111!!!!!!!!111!"
