Disclaimer: I will NEVER own Shaman King or it's characters. Though Ryu-sama owns me and I'm quite happy with that ^^
This fic is chock full of shounen-ai. Run away, far away!
Comments: This is my way of balancing things out after that angst ridden Faust fic. I plan to fill this with as much fluff and sap as I can squeeze in.
Peace at Last (Introduction)
After a hard Saturday morning of training, Yoh returned home for lunch. He took his seat at the table with Manta and Anna. Yoh was exhausted and Manta didn't look any better. Anna had probably made him clean the house on top of making lunch.
"I have an announcement to make," Anna started, "I have business to attend to at the Asakura household and will be away until tomorrow morning."
Both boys instantly looked up from their meals, faces glowing with delight.
"Manta, you're coming with me."
"NANI?" Manta screamed as he fell backwards.
"Baka, I need you to fly me down there. I have to buy many souvenirs while I'm there too."
For the rest of lunch, Manta just sat there with a horrified look on his face.

"Remember, if you mess up the house I WILL kill you." Warned Anna
"When you say it like that it's hard to if you're joking, hehe."
Anna rolled up the window of the taxi and they started to drive off. Yoh could see Manta looking at him from the backseat up until they turned the corner. He felt sorry for him, but today was such a godsend. He could finally be alone, no hard work, no chores, and especially no Anna! It was almost too good to believe that he could actually get some peace. The first thing he would do is get a snack, then he'd listen to music for the rest of the night, and end it by sleeping in late the next day. That was the life for him.
As soon as Yoh got in the house he was alarmed by the sound of people.
"But Lyserg, it'll be fun." pleaded Ryu.
What were they doing here? It didn't matter, he wouldn't let it ruin his day. As he entered the kitchen he noticed the fridge door was open.
"Yo." Ren said between sips of his milk.
"Hey Ren."
Him too? The snack could wait. He would do that later. With everyone here the quietest place would be the basement, he could listen to all the music he wanted there. He managed to get down there without any further distractions. When he'd just started to make himself comfortable someone startled him by placing a hand on his shoulder.
"Good evening Yoh-kun."
"Faust?"
"Eliza and I need help on our new experiment."
"Um, I'm a little busy right now."
Yoh flew up the stairs before Faust could respond. Maybe if he relaxed in the bath for a few hours everyone would be gone by then. When he got there, he threw his clothes aside and climbed in. He laid back and closed his eyes, enjoying the silence that surrounded him.
"Ah! Kimochi! The water feels great, ne Yoh?"
"Boro Boro?"
"Yeah…that's Horo Horo!
He began to doubt he would ever get any peace.
