Manta's Path to Shamanism
CHAPTER 1
It was a sunny summer day at the Asakura household, which was now operating as a hotel. The Shaman fight had ended 2 years ago. With Yoh as Shaman King, everything seemed to be nice. However, ever since Manta had oversouled, he felt as though he needed to become stronger. Manta wanted to become a shaman. Since Mosuke was still trapped in Manta's laptop, he had a spirit, but he had almost no furyoku. Manta then walked into the Funbari Onsen and spoke with the caretaker.
Manta: Good afternoon. Nice seeing you again. May I speak with Anna-san?
Caretaker: Of course Manta. You're always welcome here. You know the way to Mrs. Asakura's room, she's not busy right now.
Manta: Thank you very much.
Manta then walked by Yoh's room and noticed him just listening to music. Manta walked on in and started chatting with Yoh.
Manta: Good afternoon Yoh-kun!
Yoh: Nice seeing you Manta. I haven't seen your in a while! So, what's up?
Manta: Just need to talk to Anna-san for a while.
Yoh: Oh? Why's that?
Manta: I just have been feeling...like I need to become a shaman ever since I oversouled with Mosuke.
Yoh: Trust me Manta, Anna's training program is very strict. and besides, there won't be another shaman fight for 498 years. Why do you suddenly want to be one?
Manta: I'm not so sure myself...but I'm sure it'll work out somehow.
Yoh: Hehehe. Well, good luck.
Manta wandered through the hotel and noticed Amidamaru, Bason, and Tokagero chatting in the hot springs along with Ren and Horo Horo. Manta didn't see them for quite a while either, but he had no time to join them. Manta walked by Anna's room and noticed her with a nice summer Kimono on and her hair up in a bun
Manta: Anna-san, you look nice.
Anna: Thank you Manta. So, why are you here?
Manta: Well, the truth is...I've been feeling the need to become stronger ever since I oversouled with Mosuke and I just noticed it now.
Anna: And you want to become a shaman, is that it?
Manta: Well...yes...
Anna: Well, the Shaman Fight is over, but...if you feel that way about it...I suppost I could train you.
Manta: Thank you, Anna-san!
Anna: 5 laps around the lake, and after that 50 pushups, and then prepare dinner for me.
Manta: WHAT?!? Don't you have COOKS?!
Anna: Ok then...for complaining, I'm giving you 10 laps around the lake and 100 pushups.
Manta: Yes Anna...
Manta ran out and started doing laps around the lake, becoming very tired around the second lap. Around the third lap, Manta noticed Ryu with his gang walking out of a restaurant. Ryu then ran to Manta, who was panting and sweating alot at this point.
Ryu: Hey, Manta, are you crazy? what are you doing?
Manta: Anna's training program...
Ryu: Training program for WHAT? You're not a Shaman!
Manta: That's exactly why?
Ryu: Well, I don't know what you're talking about, but pace yourself there.
After finishing the greuling 10 laps, Manta collapsed on the doorstep, and Anna approached with an angry look on her face.
Anna: Manta, what are you doing?
Manta: I'm so tired...
Anna: Look Manta, you were the one who wanted to do this training program. you should have known what it was going to be like watching Yoh!
Manta: I know...but-
Anna: NO BUTS! get to those pushups. since Ryu is out, you'll be making dinner!
Manta: Yes Anna-san...
Manta collapsed several times during his pushups, but finally finished them after 2 hours. After this, Anna was starving, and demanded dinner right away. Of course, Manta could barely get up, and just crawled towards the kitchen, and started to prepare Anna's dinner, when Yoh walked by.
Yoh: Manta, you look exausted! Isn't Ryu supposed to cook?
Manta: Yeah, he is, but he went missing again...
Yoh: Even MY training wasn't as bad as THIS!
Manta: When will it end?!?
