Me: Hmm, well... i think i did this before. Probably did, can't remember though. Anyways, I wrote this just for fun.

Rykun: What about the disclaimer thingie?

Me: Oh yeah, I dont own anything that deals with Zatch Bell or Zatch Bell characters but i do own Rykun, Kori, Ryan(Later on), Sherrice(later on).

Me(Ryan): Hmm, something else i'm forgetting...

Rykun: The story?

Me: Its on the tip of my tongue...

Rykun: The story?

Me: Oh yeah... Nachos!

Rykun: -Sweatdropped-

Me: Just kidding. Read the story, if you like it review. If you don't, tell me why and what should I do to improve. Just for the sake of the story, pretend that Kolulu has a sister. In the meantime, I will be at Karate class. Rykun, you're in charge see ya. Splee! -walks out the door-

Rykun: Umm, hi... umm... read the story...

"talking"

"thinking"


It was a nice sunny day in a clear open field. "Hey Zatch, Tia, Kolulu, and Kori, wanna play?" a boy yelled while running to the group. He had spiky brown hair that stood up, blue eyes, and wore a blue shirt with blue pants with a yin-yang necklace.

"Yep." Kolulu smiled. She had short pink hair and pinks eyes with an all pink dress.

"Sure." The boy named Zatch said. He wore a nightgown shirt, with a big white bow in the middle and had blonde hair and orange eyes.

"Ok, what do you want to play Rykun?" The girl named Kori asked. She wore an all pink dress, had long pink hair and blue eyes.

"How about tag?" the girl named Tia said. She wore a pink and white dress, had long red hair, and orange-red eyes.

"Ok." Rykun smiled, "But your it!"

Tia groaned. She started running towards Zatch, then Kolulu, then Kori. "Ha, ha, I'm going to get you!" Tia laughed. Tia caught up to Kori and tagged her.

"Aww, no fair…" Kori pouted, but then she started to run after Zatch. "Ha, ha, I'm going to get you." Kori laughed, but she tripped over a branch and fell.

"Kori…" Rykun said and ran over to her, "Are you ok?" He helped Kori up and I guess you can say a slow scene occurred. (A/N: You know, when the boy offers to help the girl and they both look in each other's eyes or something like that.)

"I'm ok, Rykun…" Kori blushed.

"Good…" Rykun blushed.

"Hey, are you two still playing or what?" Kolulu yelled.

"Huh?" Rykun realized that he was touching Kori and now he was it, "Sure." He yelled back.

"Zambousen!" Rykun shouted, disappeared for a split second and then reappeared behind Zatch.

"Hey, no fair! You can't use your spell." Zatch whined. Then from behind the bushes, ropes entangled Rykun and gently lifted him up.

"Aww, no fair Rops. I was about to tag him." Rykun whined. Out of the bushes, came out a ladybug looking mamodo that you just placed on your own shoulders (Because he was only like a foot tall.).

"Caw!" he smiled and put Rykun back on the ground. "Fine, I won't use my spells." Rykun pouted, crossed his arms and turned his head. Everyone laughed at him and started to run around again.

"Ok, let see, Tia…" Tia gave Rykun a look saying that if you touch me you die, "Not Tia. Not Kolulu either, maybe Kori…" Rykun started to blush, "Nah. Let's see, Zatch or Rops?"

Rykun thought and noticed that someone was in the bushes again. The figure stepped out and it was a boy wearing a footy pajama suit on and had a duckbill for a mouth with a weird orange hairdo.

Hey Kanchome, want to play tag?" Zatch called out to him.

"Sure, who's it?" Kanchome asked.

"Rykun." Tia told him.

Kanchome looked around but didn't see Rykun anywhere.

Rykun snuck up behind Kanchome and gave him a tap on the shoulder. "And now you're it."

"W-wait, I just got in the game." He said, surprised.

"Too bad, you're it." Rykun smiled and ran away.

"But… but… but…" Kanchome stuttered, "Fine."

"Can I play too?" A little boy wearing a school outfit with glasses came out of the bushes, (about a foot taller than Rops).

"Sure Kido, but Kanchome is it." Rykun smiled.

"Ok." Kido said and started running away from Kanchome.

Kanchome started to run after Tia, but as soon as he tried to touch her, "Seoshi!" Tia yelled, causing Kanchome to run straight into the transparent dome. Kanchome ran around in pain because his nose/mouth hurt.

"That had to hurt, Recor!" Rykun yelled as he walked towards Kanchome with his hands glow a light blue color. "Stay still." He said and put his hands on Kanchome's shoulders, healing him from his pain, "There, but you're still it."

"Hey Tia, you can't use your spells either." Zatch shouted. Tia gave him a glare.

"But I will let that slide, heh, heh..." Zatch laughed nervously.

"You better." Tia said.

"Scary…" Rykun sang.

"What was that?" Tia said furiously and ran after Rykun.

"Nothing, nothing, stop chasing me before I tell everyone who you like!" Rykun screamed.

Tia instantly stopped, "Ok, ok, don't tell anyone." Tia said, worried that he might tell anyway.

"Wow, she must really like Zatch."

"Wait a minute; I know who you like too." Tia narrowed her eyes, "Yeah, I saw you two staring at each other. If you tell, I tell got it."

"Ma'am yes Ma'am!" Rykun saluted to her.

"What do you know, he does like Kori."

No one else knew what was going on.

"Are we still playing?" Kori asked.

"Caw?" Rops said.

"Not anymore, you've all been selected to fight in the next mamodo battle." a deep voice said.

Everyone turned around to see who it was.

"Hey Dad." Zatch smiled, "Why us?" It was the Mamodo King standing right in front of them.

"Out of random, everyone's name here was picked." The king said.

"But I… don't want to fight…" Kolulu said.

"I don't either…" Kori frowned.

"Yeah, same here!" Rykun said angrily.

"Caw, caw!" Rops shouted in agreement.

"Yeah, what Kolulu said." everyone else shouted.

"I'm sorry, but you have no choice…" the king sadly said.

Rykun sighed and walked towards the King. "I guess there's no other way, huh."

"I'm sorry." The king said and handed him a faded blue spell book.

"…Winrusen!" Rykun said, spread his wings and flew away, looking very sad.

The King handed out everyone's spell book. Zatch's book was red, Tia's was orange-red, Kori's was light pink, Kanchome's was yellow, Kolulu's was pink, Rops' was sky blue and Kido's was blue-gray.

"When you get to the Human world or Earth, you will need to find a human partner to assist you in the battle. You can not use your spells on your own when you get to Earth, your partner will need to read them for you. Depending on the bond you share with your partner, the more spells he or she will be able to read. I know that you don't want to fight but I'm afraid that it is out of my hands." The King said, "Also, can someone tell Rykun what I just told all of you."

"I will." Kori said, raising her hand.

"Good, thank you Kori. I'm sorry but I must give out the rest of these books. The battle will begin tomorrow at noon. Farewell, and good luck and maybe one of you can end this fighting." The King said and teleported somewhere.

"Why us?" Zatch said.

"I don't know, but I don't like it at all." Tia said.

"Caw." Rops agreed.

"Yeah, same here." Kido said. Kanchome was looking at the ground, terrified.

"And think how Rykun must feel… He is way too nice to fight against anyone and that goes for Kolulu and me." Kori said, "I'm going to go find Rykun, I think I might know where he is."

"Ok, good luck." Zatch and Tia said.

"Bye, see you at home." Kolulu smiled.

"Bye." Kido and Kanchome smiled.

"Caw!" Rops said, waving at Kori as she walked off.

----------

She arrived at a field of white, blue and pink flowers and saw Rykun lying down on the ground, looking at the clouds.

"How come we can't be like clouds, Kori? You know, just float by freely without anything to worry about." Rykun said, aware that Kori was there.

"I don't know, Rykun." She said, lying right next to him. Kori told Rykun what the King had told her.

"I see, so there is no backing out of this." Rykun sighed.

"I'm sorry Rykun." Kori sadly said.

"Huh? What are you sorry for? This is not your fault." Rykun picked himself you and offered to pick her up.

They both brush the flower petals off their clothes.

"Kori, promise me something." Rykun said.

"Yes?" Kori blushed.

"Promise that you won't get yourself hurt out there, and if you win, put a end to all this fighting." Rykun said.

"I will, and you do the same." She said.

Rykun took off his necklace from around his neck.

"Here." He smiled.

"I can't… It's yours." She said.

"Don't worry." he said. He placed the necklace around her neck and broke half of it off, "There now I have one and you have one."

He broke the yang part of the necklace and put it in his pocket while the yin part was still around Kori's neck, "Come on, let me walk you home."

"Ok…" She blushed.

They both grabbed their spell books, Rykun held out his hand, and Kori held on to it as they both walked out of the field and to Kori's house.

----------

"Well, we are here…" Kori shyly said.

"Wow, big." Rykun said in excitement.

"Bye Rykun…" Kori said and quickly gave Rykun a kiss on the cheek. She blushed for a while and walked inside.

"So does this mean, I have a girlfriend?" Rykun said to himself, holding the cheek Kori kissed.

"Yes you do." Kori said, from behind the door. Rykun smiled. "Winrusen!" he said and flew home.

"So that means… I have a boyfriend." Kori smiled as she went up to her room.

She took a shower, got dressed for bed and tuck herself in, with a smile on her face. She held the piece of the necklace tight in her hand and closed her eyes.

"Don't worry Rykun I will keep my promise." She smiled and fell asleep.

----------

Rykun arrive at his sub-mansion looking house. He walked up to room room and took a shower. He got ready for bed and re-stringed the peice of the necklace he broke off. He laid down in his bed and closed his eyes.

"Don't worry Kori. I will keep my promise." he smiled and fell asleep.
