(A/N: This is an SK/YGO crossover. So I posted this in both Yugioh and Shaman King. So if you notice that there is a clone fic out there similar to this one, check the author first before reporting me, because I'm posting this in Yugioh and Shaman King. I also might make a sequel involving more YGO characters if you give me a favorable opinion to the poll at the end of the fic. But it would spoil the story to ask now, so READ FIRST, then REVIEW and include your opinion to the review. (Key:

* This icon refers to anything thought by characters, and will be placed around a thought like a quote. EX: *thought by character*

(A/N:...) This will be my way of communicating crucial story points to the reader. After all, I'm hoping to attract readers from BOTH genres.

(scenery)----- This will refer to changes in scenery in most cases. Any more information about this may spoil the story, though... The ending's THAT good!

Voice: This is used to describe a voice whose speaker cannot be seen or easily identified. It's one of my signature author thingies.

Yami Bakura Visits Funbari by DrakeTheDuelist

summary: The Shaman King characters are confronted by Yami Bakura, leaving Yami Bakura to... er... do 'what he does best'.

Rated PG-13 for mild horror and adult situations. (Mild horror? I mean this is Yami Bakura we're talking about! Though it's not too bad until chapter 4...)

Style: Supernatural / Romance

Disclaimer: I don't own Yugioh. I also don't own Shaman King. Because if I did, this is what would most likely happen...

Chapter 1: "I wish..."

The morning sun crossed the horizon as a giant mansion like house became illuminated. (A/N: HA, mild horror indeed! It gets nastier...)

The building seemed to be of old Japanese design, with a black roof, stone white walls and gate, and a hot tub or two. On the side, there was a label near the entrance. It read (in Japanese) "EN"

(A/N: That's the name of the inn in the manga. I looked it up.)

Out of the doors, with the rising of the sun, a boy jogged out of the inn. The boy was thirteen, had brown hair, and wore green sweatpants, a white shirt, and distinctive orange headphones.

Yoh: *Ugh, yet another morning of training. And I've gotta' run to school, and back again, TWICE! And normally, it'd take a bus to get me there on time.* "I swear that I wish Anna would just go away sometimes!" He shouted out his thoughts, not realizing that his physical abuser / fiancée was right behind him, wearing a blue beaded necklace, a red headband, a black dress, and wooden sandals. Yoh kept on running at full speed.

Anna: She had her hands on her hips, and a very irritated glare on her face. *Normally, I'd yell at him, but if venting makes him able to train better, then so be it. I'll just pretend I didn't hear that so long as Yoh keeps running.*

Yoh: He began to run in place, then gradually slow down and stop entirely, resting on his knees while catching his breath. He suddenly freezes up as he hears the clicking of beads approach him from behind. *Uh oh. I'll live to regret that line I just spit out...*

Anna: She became very frustrated with Yoh. "YOH ASAKURA, you'll live to regret that line you just spit out!"

Yoh: He froze up at hearing his fiancée's ear piercing comment. *Wow. She's not kidding about being able to read minds.* He begins to run away as fast as he can. After turning several corners, he bumped into his tremendously short friend and classmate, Manta Oyamada.

Manta: When Yoh ran past, he got knocked aside, and throwing Yoh off balance as well. Both trip and land on the ground. "Back at training at the orders of Her Highness, I see..." He and Yoh both get to their feet.

Yoh: "Yeah, you can say that again. I learned the hard way that you can know when you're really exhausted when you start spitting out random thoughts off the top of your head."

Manta: He rubs his head and picks up his big book that he always carries around. "Oh boy, I know where this is going...."

voice: "Sounds like you've got a problem with a bully." A white haired, tall boy in a white knit shirt and blue jeans responded to the two.

Yoh and Manta: Both turn around to face the white haired boy.

Bakura: He looked rather nervous at the time. "Uh, sorry. Hate to bust in. Nasty habit of mine." He backed away slowly.

Manta: "Nah, it's okay, so long as you're not in immediate contact with Miss Drill Sergeant."

Yoh: "Yeah, don't worry. I'm free to talk any time I'm not in training."

Manta: He glances to Yoh after his comment. "Uh, Yoh... Aren't you in training now?"

Yoh: "Oh, great, you're right!" (to Bakura) "Hey, man, it was nice to meet ya', but I've gotta' be going somewhere!" He jogs off, leaving Manta to catch up to him.

Manta: He pursues Yoh, hoping not to lose him around a corner. "Yoh, wait for me!"

Yoh: "Ya' know, Manta, sometimes I wouldn't be too upset if Anna just did disappeared for real."

Manta: "You and me both, Yoh!" He began to catch up to Yoh.

Bakura: He overheard the last comment of Yoh and Manta before they went around the corner. A look of cunningness and maliciousness crossed his face as a golden ring appeared on a string lanyard around his neck. *Hehehe... Maybe I can build up my shadow powers here by killing this innocent non-duelist. Then I can defeat Yugi with ease and take his puzzle from him and rule the world. This 'Anna' girl doesn't sound too appreciated, so nobody should care when I rid the world of her!* His voice changed to a more sinister tone as he began to snicker, commending himself for his fiendish plan.

(A/N: So Bakura is in Funbari. And, I know, that the meeting between Manta and Yoh was short and unusual. Sorry, but I was in no means willing to keep going on and on and spoil the story. Additionally, my deepest apologies go to those who thought this was way too corny for Yami Bakura. Don't worry, he'll return to his evil, masochistic, homicidal self soon enough...)
