A shaman in Konoha
A/N Thanks to all who reviewed. Hopefully this chapter will be a bit longer.
Oh no. Yoh thought, I'm in for it now. They don't look happy and they're armed. Amidamaru being the legendary samurai he was recognised both the weapon's they were wielding and the fighting stance's they had fallen into.
"Lord Yoh. Be careful they're ninja, the children also."
"Drop your sword and we won't harm you." As the man said this Yoh studied him, he appeared to be the leader of the little group. To Yoh he seemed very calm and collected, almost uncaring or unbothered. Yoh thought his sliver hair wouldn't look amiss on a scarecrow.
"O.K." Yoh dropped his sword with a clatter, it landed hilt towards the ninja. The fact he had given up without a fight shocked the ninja, it showed on the children's faces.
"Lord Yoh, why did you do that? We are now at a disadvantage."
"Relax Amidamaru. It'll all work out in the end, trust me."
"What's that behind you?" The taller boy demanded, causing Yoh to study him. He had raven hair and eyes like jet, these starkly contrasted with his porcelain like skin. Yoh thought that the pink haired girl next to him must mean something to him, as he was standing to the side and slightly in front of her as if protecting her from any danger.
"There's nothing there idiot Sasuke!" The shorter blond boy shouted, Yoh noticed he looked so full of energy he was almost bouncing from foot to foot.
"There is. Behind that boy there is another warrior, dunce."
"Sorry, Sasuke much as I hate to admit it Naruto's right." The pink haired girl said.
"Sakura… Both you and Naruto must be blind."
"Am not!"
"Are so."
"Am not!"
"Baka."
At this Naruto walked up to Yoh, as he did this Yoh looked straight into his eyes. Starring back at him from those blue orbs was a boy who was in pain, who felt like an outcast. It was the look his own eyes had held until he moved to the city and met Mantra (sp?) His first human friend. On impulse he blurted out to Naruto;
"Wanna be friends?"
While Yoh said this Naruto was walking around behind him trying to find the 'warrior' Sasuke was talking about. At Yoh's words he spun around.
"You really mean that?" He said causing the other three's eyes to widen in shock.
"Of course. I know how it feels to b an outcast and how lonely you must feel."
"Friends then." Naruto said launching himself at Yoh, who didn't have chance to do anything before he was engulfed in a bear hug by Naruto.
The others sweat dropped anime style; Yoh just laughed and hugged the boy back.
"Yeah friends."
"Hang on a minute, Naruto; we don't know anything about this boy, not even his name. Tell him Master Kakashi." Sakura said.
"You're right Sakura." At this Naruto's face fell. Kakashi then added. "But he seems harmless enough. After all he was willing to leave himself unarmed, while we are still armed. So he can't really mean us any harm."
At this Naruto's face lit up again. A grin appeared on his face stretching from ear to ear.
"However he still has to introduce himself and explain why he fell from the sky."
"Yeah, well about that…" Yoh said scratching his head.
"Yes?" Kakashi encouraged.
"It's kind of confusing."
"Why not introduce yourself and tell us a little about your self then." Kakashi said with a sigh after a few minutes of silence.
"My name is Yoh Asakura, I' m 13 and a shaman." Yoh said taking Kakashi's advice to heart. At the word shaman Kakashi's eyes narrowed.
"What's a shaman? Never heard of one of those before."
"Dunce."
"Hey! Bet you don't know what one is either!" Naruto shouted.
"That's where you're wrong, baka."
"Prove it!"
"Are they always like this?" Yoh asked thinking about how similar the two of them were to Ren and Horohoro.
"Pretty much." Kakashi answered, while Sakura tried to calm the two boys down.
"For your information, dunce. A shaman is a link between this world and the spirit world." Sasuke smugly informed Naruto.
"I knew that."
"Yeah, cause you did." Sasuke said sarcastically.
"Does that mean you're a shaman too?"
"Me, no I'm not. There are no shaman here, not anymore."
"Why? What happened to them?" Yoh curiously asked.
"No one knows they just vanished." Sakura supplied.
"Oh."
After a few minutes Sasuke said glaring at Amidamaru;
"You've introduced yourself, now what about the man behind you. Who is he?"
Not this again Kakashi thought shaking his head. There's nothing there why won't Sasuke just drop it? It's not like him to act so stupidly, it's out of character. What's wrong with him?
"This is Amidamaru, my guardian spirit."
"But there's nothing there." Sakura calmly pointed out.
"Only those with shamanic powers can see spirits." Yoh informed them, looking straight at Sasuke. He then added to Sasuke, "If you're not a shaman you must have the potential to be."
"I don't, I can't have!" Sasuke said looking very uncomfortable and unsure of himself, which was unusual to say the least. This caused Amidamaru and Kakashi to narrow their eyes suspiciously.
"But you can see me, Lord Sasuke."
Sasuke's eyes widen in shock, the other three ninja looked very surmised and confused, as they didn't hear Amidamaru and Sasuke hardly ever let his emotions show.
"Fine, whatever." He said finally, unable to find any way of denying that he could see the spirit, after what he'd already said. Dam it he thought to himself.
"It may be 'kind of confusing' but please explain how you got here." Kakashi asked politely.
"Well…" Yoh began to explain to the ninja how he'd been walking through the park with Amidamaru trying to get home. When a man appeared from the shadows and attacked him. He'd tried to protect himself but after a long, and tiring battle his attacker had somehow created a glowing hole (a portal) and pushed him into it. He then fell in their world.
"You're right that is confusing." Naruto said scratching his head.
Suddenly for no apparent reason Yoh just collapsed on the floor unconscious.
A/N Sorry to have to leave it there but I'm out of time. Hope it wasn't too bad and that you enjoyed it. I couldn't seem to get this to flow smoothly. It's my first fanfic using Naruto characters and Yoh and Amidamaru so I hope no one is too out of character. Thanks for reading.
