Disclaimer: Do not own Shaman King...

Felt like making a new story again (idea just came as I woke up...). Hope this one isn't a wreak....(-_____-")

First

Entering his high school Yoh knew that being the new student was going to be troublesome. Having only been home schooled he didn't know much about the way high schools worked.

"Excuse me, do you know where the main office is?", Yoh asked a student of the school.

The girl looked at Yoh with irritation before answering, "It's just down the hall. When you see the foyer go past the library and go to the hallway and you'll find the office."

After answering the girl walked off with her group. Thankful for the answer and not discouraged with her attitude Yoh walked to the main office relaxed.

'I wonder what it will be like at this kind of place...?', Yoh wondered.

The bell rang signalling that classes have begun. With the signal the hallways were empty and quiet. Putting on his headphones Yoh buttoned his uniform and listened to his music. After looking around for a moment Yoh found the main office.

"Can I help you?", the secretary asked before rushing to answer the ringing phone.

The secretary gestured for him to sit and thus he did. Sitting on the bench Yoh saw that there were other rooms inside. Not daring to venture Yoh sat lazily waiting for the secretary to finish her talk.

"Thank you.", the secretary said as he put the phone down.

Getting up Yoh told the secretary while scratching his head, "I'm a new student here..."

Looking down the secretary searched through the computer until a ping was heard.

"So you're Yoh Asakura, correct?", the secretary said without looking from the desktop.

"Yup...", Yoh replied nervously.

The expression the secretary had on was one to be nervous about. It was a look that meant 'you better be on your best behaviour and I don't want to see you again'.

"Here, you can go to your classes.", the secretary told Yoh as he handed Yoh his schedule and some other sheets.

Shooing him out Yoh walked out looking at his schedule. At this moment he should be at math.

'Room 341 at the 3rd floor...', Yoh read to himself.

Walking up the stairs he reached the 3rd floor and searched for room 341. Finding the room Yoh knocked at the door and opened it. Opening the door gasps reached his ears.

"You must be?", the teacher asked impatient.

"Yoh Asakura.", Yoh answered looking at the teacher.

"Sit at the back next to...Hao.", the teacher said after looking at the raised hand.

Looking away from the teacher Yoh looked up to the raised hand. The hand belonged to Hao who was his identical. Looking shocked Yoh attempted to calm down and sat at the desk next to Hao and concentrated on the view outside his window.

Another class went by similarly until he had to get ready for lunch.

'Lunch...now where was the cafeteria...?', Yoh asked himself.

Trying to remember he walked right into the cafeteria.

'Wow, what luck..', Yoh thought happily.

Grabbing a lunch he sat at the seats in the back. Noticing many stares Yoh ignored them.

"What happened to your hair Hao...?", a small girl asked.

"Sorry you have the wrong person...", Yoh replied scratching his head nervously.

"Okay.", the girl said as she walked away.

Sitting alone he continued eating until a short male sat at the same table. The two ate in silence noticing the others presence.

Finishing his lunch Yoh greeted the shorter male, "Hi, I'm Yoh."

With his hand reaching out Yoh looked at the other relaxed.

'Making a friend would be good here...', Yoh thought daydreaming.

Breaking his daydream the male looked at Yoh.

"I'm Manta...", the male said shaking hands with Yoh.

With that said and done the two sat talking about meaningless things comfortably.

Somewhere in the halls...

Hao walked with his usual expression toward the cafeteria. Somehow he would always arrive there after many people have left.

Walking in he thought absent minded, 'At least it isn't as loud anymore...'

Grabbing a curry bread he sat in the middle of the cafeteria. As soon as his presence was noticed his acquaintances and friends sat around him.

Wondering about the incident in first period Hao's thoughts were broken as Opacho announced her presence.

"Opacho saw a male today who looks like you Hao.", Opacho said pointing the male.

Nodding Hao looked at Yoh. Yoh seemed to be sitting beside a shorter male that he believed was called Manta.

'Life here sure is going to be interesting, with him around.', Hao thought smirking.
