Prince Zatch Bell
Kiyo Meets Zatch
Instead of being placed in a foster home Zeno was placed in one, as Zatch was raised by his father and trained to harness Bao and another powerful spell in him. However Zatch preferred helping others and only using his powers for that (No different from the show). Zatch visited one place time to time and met some mamodos (some mamodo friends we all know).
Zeno was training as well. Since he didn't inherit Bao he was treated well and he two trained to harness his power. When it came to choosing the 100 mamodos to fight the battle both brothers were picked. Both Zeno and Zatch were one of the few mamodos that were the strongest out of the 100 (as Keith calls it, one of the few that only the adults could beat). They were both selected for the battle for king.
Now Zatch was going to Japan in request of someone who helped him, in search of whom Zatch hope is his partner. Kiyo was ignoring his mother as usual. Zatch knock on the door waiting for entrance. Hana opened it to see Zatch standing there.
"Hello there," Hana greeted, "How may I help you?"
"I'm here to meet your son Kiyo Takamine," Zatch said.
"Uh sure," Hana said letting Zatch in.
Zatch broke in through Kiyo's room and gave him the letter from Kiyo's father explaining about Zatch.
"So can you read my book?" Zatch asked.
Kiyo opened the spellbook. "What kind of language is this, I can't read a thing," Kiyo said.
Zatch look down disappointed.
"Wait I can read this one," Kiyo said, 'Zake…" Zatch tackled him.
"Not in here, outside," Zatch said.
They headed outside to try out the first spell.
'Zaker' Kiyo shouted.
Lightning fired from Zatch's hand creating a crater.
"What…?" Kiyo responded, "This is crazy no human can do this."
"Kiyo open all ears because what I'm about to tell you will determine our faith from here on out," Zatch said.
"I'm listening," Kiyo said.
"As you probably figure I'm not human. I'm what is known as mamodos, 1 of 100 mamodo children from another world sent here to battle this battle for king that occurred once every 1000 years. Each of us will have one spellbook each are in different colors. Before we battle we have to find a human who can read our spells from spellbooks like the one you're holding," Zatch said, "Infact I'm the son of the previous winner of the last battle, King Bell. This is why I was chosen as one of the one hundred mamodo children to fight it. And as the reader of my book you must choose to either help me in my battle or not."
"So is Zaker our only spell?" Kiyo asked.
"For now, but over time as our strength increase and I tap more into my power more spells will appear," Zatch said.
"I'll think about it," Kiyo said, "But, and I can't believe I'm saying this, at school."
"Kiyo one more thing, I'll train so that you won't get hurt so much in battle, and I'll be your shield when ever I have to," Zatch said.
"Okay," Kiyo said.
Kiyo went to school but was more focused on the spellbook. A second spell had appeared.
"The second spell Rashield," Kiyo thought, "After Zaker I'm scared to find out what Rashield does. But then again, I can help Zatch in his battles. Beets coming here day by day studying what I already know."
What Kiyo didn't know was that Zatch disguised himself as a backpack to study the human world through Kiyo's life.
"Everyone is paying attention but Kiyo," Zatch thought.
"Mr. Takamine," The teacher ordered.
"Yes sir," Kiyo responded.
"Solve the equation on the blackboard," the teacher said.
"-5 XY squared to the 6th," Kiyo answered.
"That's correct," the teacher said.
The students said things about why Kiyo should be in school and etch.
"That's it, I rather take my chances in this crazy battle then deal with this," Kiyo thought.
Kiyo was about to head home with Zatch fallowing.
"Ah Kiyo, Kiyo," A girl known as Suzy said, "Are you going home already? It's not even lunch time. Its been a long time since you were last here, why won't you stay awhile?"
"Why bother?" Kiyo asked.
"If you're bored with class you can help me with my studies again," Suzy said.
"Just leave me alone mind your own business," Kiyo shouted as he turned around.
"Kiyo stop right there," Zatch shouted popping out of the bag, "All she is doing is trying to be your friend, if I was in your shoes I would be happy that at least someone wants to be your friend."
"Zatch what are you doing here?" Kiyo yelled.
"I thought since I'm here I might as well learn more about this place (meaning the human world)."
"Oh hello are you one of Kiyo's friends?" Suzy asked.
"I'm Zatch Bell," Zatch said.
Kiyo took Zatch to the roof.
"Well since you're here I might as well give you my decision," Kiyo said, "I decided to help you in this battle."
"That's good, but don't worry you can still attend your normal days when we're not battling or training," Zatch said, "Oh yeah I was even thinking of teaching you how to read mamodo writing. Who knows when that will come in handy?"
"What is Mamodo writing?" Kiyo asked.
"It's the kind of like the writing in the spellbook, but this kind of language you can read if you know how," Zatch said.
"Fine but stay up here, and I'll pick you up after school," Kiyo said.
"Great, then we can start training," Zatch said.
Kiyo left to head back to class with no choice. "For a prince he's a pain," Kiyo said.
Zatch look around and saw Suzy up there.
"Oh hello," Zatch greeted, "You're the girl from before."
"And you're the small boy who came with Kiyo," Suzy said, "My name is Suzy."
"Nice to meet you Suzy," Zatch said.
"Nice to meet you two Flatch," Suzy said.
"My name is Zatch," Zatch said.
"What are you doing here?" Suzy asked.
"Kiyo told me to wait here and he'll pick me up later," Zatch said.
Meanwhile a large guy known as Kane was bullying some students.
Zatch saw him with confusion. "Hey you shouldn't be doing that," Zatch said.
"Says who?" Kane asked.
"Says me, that's who," Zatch argued.
"You please," Kane said, "You should be afraid of me. You know why? Because I'm what some considered a bully."
"Oh yeah my father told me about bullies, they tease and pick on those weaker than them," Zatch said, "However you won't be able to lay a finger on me."
Kane picked Zatch up. "You talk big for a small time, yet I already have you in my hands," Kane said. Kane went for a punch but Zatch blocked it easy, then kick the hand holding him at one place. Kane let go as Zatch was free.
Meanwhile a teenager name Eido was looking at Suzy from the Binoculars and with his mamodo partner Hyde they decided to jump in.
'Jikir' Eido shouted. Wind held him in the air waiting for their chance to attack.
Kiyo was getting ready to pick up Zatch when he over heard someone talking about Kane being on the roof top.
"I left Zatch up there," Kiyo thought, "Oh well, he said it himself, he was trained for this battle, since he was 3."
At the roof Zatch dodge another hit. Suzy got in front of him.
"That's enough Kane, he's just a little kid," Suzy said.
"Get out of the way Suzy," Kane warned her.
"Zatch get out of the way hurry," Suzy said.
"No I can't, besides when Kiyo gets here, I'll show this guy he can't go around bullying others," Zatch said, "Because no one tries to bully me, Zatch Bell."
Kiyo reached the door when he heard Zatch say that. Kane pushed Suzy aside.
"Do you really think Kiyo is coming?" Kane asked.
"He promised," Zatch said.
"Don't make me laugh. He doesn't care about anyone but himself," Kane said. He tried to kick Zatch but Zatch blocked it with his hands.
Kiyo was thinking that Kane was right as Kane described him as the worst person ever.
"You're wrong," Zatch said, "I was told he had friends in elementary school but after middle school everyone turned on him, all because he was smart. You're the one doing wrong not him."
"Then where is he? No where that's where," Kane said.
"He's coming, I know it," Zatch said.
"Zatch I'm here," Kiyo shouted.
"Kiyo finally," Zatch said, "I hope you brought the book."
"What does that mean?" Kiyo asked.
Kane started beating Kiyo up.
"Kiyo raise your hands and block the punches and kicks," Zatch ordered.
Kiyo hit the ground next to Zatch.
"We need to work on your fighting skills," Zatch said.
"What do you think? I wasn't taught how to defend myself like you," Kiyo responded.
"Ah relax, besides you're still able to stand right?" Zatch asked.
"Yeah I guess you're right," Kiyo said.
"Thanks for coming Kiyo," Suzy said.
"What are you freaks so excited about?" Kane asked.
Zatch sensed a mamodo presence coming their way from above.
"Fair warning, there's someone with powers coming down very soon," Zatch said.
"Someone with powers, wait he isn't talking about the other mamodos he mention earlier," Kiyo thought.
Just then Eido and Hyde crash landed on Kane knocking him out. "
Hey cutie, nice skirt," Eido flirted to Suzy.
Suzy pushed her skirt down.
"Kiyo watch out that kid there is a mamodo," Zatch said.
Kiyo pulled out the red spellbook.
Kane was coming at Eido for a punch.
'Jikir' Eido shouted. Gust of wind hit Kane throwing him off.
Eido skated around Suzy.
"Hey cutie you're going to be my girlfriend," Eido said then grabbed her, "I'm wicked strong you know."
Suzy tried to break free but couldn't.
"Stop it right there," Kiyo shouted.
"And tell us where the mamodo that really caused that wind is at?" Zatch responded.
'Jikir' Eido shouted.
A gust of wind blown at them but Zatch protected Kiyo.
"Kiyo launch Zaker, maybe then the mamodo will make his appearance," Zatch shouted.
"Good idea," Kiyo responded.
'Jikir' Eido shouted as Hyde fired his attack.
"The first spell," Kiyo shouted, 'Zaker'
Lightning fired from Zatch's hand through the gust of wind and came at Eido and Hyde. They dodge the attack and got away.
"That was even more amazing than the first time we used the spell," Kiyo said.
"And believe it or not there are others even more amazing and there are more powerful attacks two," Zatch said.
"More amazing and powerful spells than this," Kiyo thought, "And we haven't even reach the second spell."
Meanwhile Eido and Hyde got away.
"So that's the prince of the mamodo world, he's powerful compare to others," Hyde thought.
At the balcony Sherry and Brago witness the explosion. "That was from a battle wasn't it?" Sherry asked.
"Yes but one of the mamodos I sensed is one of the 6 most powerful mamodos like me," Brago said, "The prince himself, Zatch Bell."
"Which means the battle for king has started, and young prince, you said he was, has started it," Sherry said.
That night Zatch took a bath thinking of the battle.
"Tomorrow we start training," Zatch said, "And hopefully over time, I'll find Zeno in hope to stop the darkness in his heart that led to the two of us being separated for my safety."
"Dear dad, thanks for the birthday present, but I think that this battle will be more than I expected to be. Hopefully we'll pull through," Kiyo wrote in his letter to his father.
A/N: I had this idea for awhile. Basically Zeno and Zatch switch places except Zeno is still one of the strongest and wasn't teased. Both Zatch and Zeno will be able to launch spells from the hands. and both will know the power of their clothes.
Zatch also was a wear of his twin brother and that's why he's willing to help Zeno. Zatch will also share more of the same attack spells Zeno had, and more to replace the power Zatch doesn't have that Zeno does, same way the other way around except for Jidirasu Uruzakerga and Bao Zakerga.
Zatch does have the ability to sense a mamodos presence, and he knows the names of the 100 mamodos in the battle and their powers, but unless he knows who they are, or seen their power he can't identify them all.
Finally Zatch is training Kiyo to prepare for the battles but it won't be like how Brago prepared Sherry. Zatch will still use his powers to protect Kiyo when needed.
Heads up on some extra spells that will appeared later...
Baruk: (Assist) Zatch disappears in a flash of lightning and reappeared 10 ft away. Anyone touching him while the spell is launched disappears with him. If the mamodo have a spell activated like a body enhancement spell and is in contact with Zatch while Baruk is launched, when they reappeared the enemies' spell is canceled out.
