NEW SHAMAN IN TOWN

ML: All right!  My first Shaman King story! 

Yoh: So, who's involved? 

ML: Well, it's a Yoh/Anna story, which I can tell you.

Morty: All right, plot?

ML: I'll tell y'all later.  Anyway, I don't own Shaman King, since Hiroyuki Takei, fox, and 4kids own it.  I DO own James, but not his spirits.  There.  ROLL FILM!

Chapter 1 – A new Shaman?

(MORTY'S POV)

            It's been a few months since I first met Yoh.  He's a cool guy, but the whole "uniting with spirits" thing can really get creepy, if you know what I mean. 

Then came the attack by Len, and Yoh was lucky he survived.  Then Anna came, and believe me when I say this, our worlds just got rocked!  Turns out that she wants to be the Shaman Queen to Yoh's Shaman King, and trains him like heck!  Add Rio's Dead Enders and Trey, who just started living with us, and you've got one creepy circle of friends, but I'm getting ahead of myself here. 

(NARRATOR'S POV)

            Our story starts off after the whole debacle with Tokagero possessing Rio.  It was a typical day down in Tokyo.  When I say "typical", I mean typical.  Anna had sent Yoh to train yet again, and Morty was making lunch for the whole gang.  It took him at least five tries until Anna deemed it acceptable, but it was.  Then Morty went out to find Yoh.  Trey went with him, and the two found him, on a park bench, sweating. 

            "Thought I found you here!"  Morty said.

            "I don't know whether to give up, or keep going!  Anna's been really training me hard!"  Yoh complained. 

            Amidamaru, Yoh's main spirit showed up, and said, "Yoh, keep going.  You didn't come this far to give up!"

            "He's right, you know."  Trey replied back.  "What if Len decides to attack again?" 

            "Look, I want to be Shaman King just as bad as Len does, but now, I don't know if I can even survive Anna's training!"  Yoh yelled.  Morty and Trey jumped back.  Yoh was never this angry.  However, a lone figure jumped out, and said, "Well, if you three are Shamans, I want to see what you three can do!" 

            Morty said, "I'm not a Shaman.  Those two are!" Pointing to both Trey and Yoh.

            Trey screamed, "Who are you?"

            The figure walked out, and said, "My name's James.  James Petersson."  Morty looked at him.  The boy was wearing jeans, black t-shirt, sunglasses.  Looked like an American. 

            "Well then, James.  Let's see how you can face up to this!  AMIDAMARU!"  Yoh commanded.

            "SPIRIT FORM!  UNITY!"  As soon as he was united with Amidamaru, he took out a sword, and said, "Come on James, let's see what you got." 

            "If you insist.  AL CAPONE!  SPIRIT FORM!  UNITY!"  He said.  He took out what seemed like a machine gun, and began to fire. 

            "Just who is this Al Capone?"  Trey asked.

            "Al Capone was this really bad American gangster who lived in the 1920's.  He masterminded the St. Valentine's day massacre that killed another gang who was distributing illegal alcohol."  Morty explained.

            Amidamaru said, "Yoh, be aware.  You have to go through the centre of his blasts." 

            Yoh said.  "Got it." 

            Their merged voices replied, "Get ready!  CELESTIAL SLASH!"  The attack knocked away the gun that James was carrying, and both shamans exorcised their ghosts.  It was then that Yoh asked, "Just why is an American like you, doing in Japan?"

            James explained, "I was born in Sweden, but I moved to America when I was four.  I'm here for the same reason as you and the snowboard boy are.  To be The Shaman King." 

            Yoh said, "Then why not come live with us?" 

            "Thanks, but no.  I've got a hotel room while I'm in this place."  Trey, Yoh and Morty left for one way, while James went the other way.  However, what both guys didn't know was that someone was watching.  Someone evil.

            "So Bason, he's got the ghost of Al Capone.  Could be very useful in gaining Headphones boy's Samurai ghost!"  It was Len who was watching the battle.

            Meanwhile, the three were back home, and they met up with one VERY angry Anna. 

            "Why were you late, Yoh?  I was about to send out a search party!" Anna yelled.

            Yoh explained everything about this new shaman.  She nodded slowly, and said, "You better not be lying, or I'll double the miles!" 

            Trey said, "He's not lying!  He's telling the truth!"  Morty nodded his head.

            Anna then replied, "Then I'll meet with him, and hope he's just as good as he says he is."  Little did Yoh and his friends know, that Anna did have a bit of concern about where exactly was her fiancé.

END CHAPTER

Well, not a bad start for me, but I hope I do better!  R&R!
