Of chibiness and love

Anime: Shaman King

Pairing:MantaxKororo( I know there's other ppl who like them, but still...Why am I the first to write a story about them)

Disclaimer: I do not own Shaman King. Hiroyuki Takei does. I'm just borrowing his characters.


She was flying, her mind completely set on him. That wasn't so strange. He was always on her mind. Her master, her protector, her friend. He never minded her size. She was small, but powerful and energetic. But today he wasn't in his room sleeping, nor in the kitchen, eating. Kororo already started worrying; she cared about that childish shaman almost as much as his sister did. She searched the house, only to state the obvious; he was not here. Since he told Tamao he likes her, he spent every single moment with the pink-haired girl. Kororo never minded; Tamao made him happy, and if Horokeu was happy, his Koropokkoru was happy too. But she needed him. Eventually, she could be with him only at night. Pirika, of course, was not as happy as Kororo when she found out that her brother has a girlfriend. Probably because she thought that he won't have the time for training. She was wrong. Horo Horo would come to training, trained and then leave again, probably anxious to see a certain pink-haired shaman again. The only problem is that Horokeu Usui was not the only boy that was often on her mind. Every time she would just relax, her mind would drift into a trance, to think only of him. But he never noticed her, his nose was always inside a book. She was only a random person to him. As if he knew she was thinking of him, he walked in, holding a book almost as big as himself.

"Hey, Kororo"

He greeted her. She just nodded and started zoning out again.

I wonder what would he do if he knows. I wonder if he knows!

The last thought was a slightly panicky one. There was only one way to ask him. She floated and landed gently on his shoulder. He seemed to notice her, but he looked like he doesn't mind it. She then snuggled into his neck. He blushed a little, but that was his only reaction. She then hugged his neck, as much as her tiny hands would let her. That gesture was too big to be ignored. Manta looked surprised, and then he looked at her. She was staring at him, floating in front of his nose.

"Kororo, is there something you want to tell me?"

Then she realized; he still didn't figure it out. Kororo was desperate by now, so she kissed his nose, and floated away. Just about she was flying through the door, she heard his voice, a bit surprised, but fortunately happy.

"You could have just told me."

She turned around and smiled at him. Then she decided to find Horokeu.

She was halfway through the long hallway, when she spoke again.

"I like you too, Kororo."

Then he blushed and covered his face by his book. But she could not see that movement. She was too occupied flying through the house, still looking for her master, but this time much happier.


Mia is done. And she hopes you like it.

Until the next story, bye.
