Prologue

Hao felt the spiritual blade pass his body, yet nothing seemed to have happened. There was no pain from the outside, but he felt as if he was burning from the inside, it must have been another effect that he didn't count on. He smiled in a mocking/peaceful way. Only to still find himself alive, but why was he the one using Yoh's oversoul and why could he see himself as if he was standing in front of a mirror. Then, it hit him, Yoh probably used every bit of his furiyoku and pushed himself too much, causing a strange side effect. He realized that he was in the younger Asakura's body. The oversoul vanished as even Amidamaru noticed that the energy emitted from Yoh's body was different.

"Yoh-dono…. Are you alright?" asked the samurai spirit, looking at Hao, who was Yoh's body, with anxiety.

Yoh, who was still oblivious to the change, rubbed his eyes in confusion. The spirit of fire knew of what happened to his master and quickly landed beside Hao.

".. Why do I see myself…?" said Yoh, blinking rather stupidly at the sight of his own body.

"Because you are in my body and I am in yours….." replied the older Asakura, thankful that their skills were not switched as well and he could still read minds.

Yoh Asakura and Amidamaru could only gape in surprise.

"I'd rather you don't do anything comical with my body…. And I propose a truce as I cannot risk destroying it…." Said Hao crossly, still agitated at the fact that his world could not be created sooner because of the incident.

The rest of Yoh's group came rushing, give Yoh(well I think by this time we know why), dark looks.

"Why is he still alive!" screeched Horo Horo, and everyone went back to their fighting stance.

"… There's a misunderstanding… you see…." Yoh's sentence cut short by Ren's own.

"There's no mistake here Hao! We're going to end you now!" retorted the golden-eyes boy.

At that, Hao could stand it no longer.

"Urusei! Just listen for a moment!" he said, his brows knitted together in pure anger.

Everyone could only stare at Hao in disbelief, it was as rare to see a shaman as good as Hao as Yoh was to get irritated.

"Hao! What did you do to Yoh!" cried Chocolove, who was practically in tears. "You made him weird!"

"But I'm Yoh….." said Yoh, who was still not used to people calling him Hao.

"You're joking…. Aren't you…..?" said Ryu in disbelief.

"He's not lying, I'm Hao and he is Yoh….." said Hao as he watched nearly everyone's face turn blue.

The older Asakura smirked in satisfaction as Horo Horo and Chocolove began running around in circles, Ryu was hugging his body and crying(he was yelling at Ryu not to touch his body ever again), Ren was… well… being Ren and Anna looked perplexed. Faust wanted to see if something was amiss in their bodies, but both Asakuras declined the doctor's offer. Lyserg was rather dismayed, if he wanted to kill Hao, he would be damaging a part of Yoh, he gave up and decided it would be best if he would stand down for the time being.

"Well, it seems that we have to take both of them back home…." Said Anna, after much thought.

And that was the beginning of the misadventures of the crew.
