Between Betrayal And Salvation
Disclamer: I've told a big lie! I own Shaman King! Even the characters are mine! Seriously, you will never believe that, would you?
Warning: Yaoi, don't like, don't read, just leave before you regret. Contains general angst, bad language and emotional abuse.
A/N: This is important in case it causes confusion, since most of you probably have read the manga's ending by now, I think it's save to have this fanfic set in the anime, or else it would be difficult to pair up Yoh with Lyserg.
Prologue
One late midnight, a familiar figure sits beside a bonfire in a forest, who is none other than Asakura Yoh. His normally calm look, had been replaced by a frown marred on his forehead. He is obviously thinking of something, completely ignoring his surroundings. His thoughts were clouded by every incident that revolves around a certain green-haired shaman. Lyserg Diethel. For some reason tonight, he began to wonder how is Lyserg doing right now in London after the Shaman King Tournament last year.
Yoh had never forgiven Lyserg for joining the X-Laws, he couldn't. But it was more than that of course. Horo Horo knew Yoh like few other people did and it was simple for him to see that Yoh had merely merged his frustration at being unable to change the situation, his guilt at being unable to protect the rest of the team, and probably some other emotions the ice shaman was unaware of.
A new found feeling. With the British dowser.
Horo was quite at a loss.
One may wonder what makes Yoh having these thoughts out of the blue. Well, it all started with Yoh receiving a letter from Lyserg this morning, saying that he's coming over to Japan to pay everyone a visit after his studies in London.
Dear Yoh,
It's been awhile. I missed you guys quite badly. How's Anna? Hope she's doing well. I bet she's still bossing and slave-drives you around... Well, not that I blamed her, considering your ability to drive anyone mad with your lack of motivation to do anything productive.
Anyways, just wanted to inform you that I'll be coming over to Japan in October to pay everyone at a visit. I'm still learning to be a detective in case you're wondering what I'm up to. I'm currently studying Laws and Orders course in my own local area, but I figured that it doesn't hurt to visit old friends.
It happened to be a semester break that lasts for 2 weeks, and it gets dull when you live alone in a large mansion owned by your late grandfather. I made some friends that studies the same course, but none of them are shamans as you might have expected it, so its not the same as being with you guys.
Honestly, I don't know what else to write, after all a lot could happen in one year and we have so much to catch up, I hope you don't mind. That is all, I guess. See you soon!
From,
Lyserg Diethel.
Yoh spent the rest of the night sleeping in his outdoor tent with Amidamaru. He decided to think about this again tomorrow, or to be more precise, later.
Forgive me for this short prologue, I just wanted to let the readers know that Yoh already have unsettled business with our favorite British shaman so Lyserg coming over will have some unexpected result.
