Disclaimer: As I said before, I own none of Hiroyuki Takei's creations. But
I'm still a fan girl, and I still love Manta!
Claimer: Yes, the girl in this chapter is mine! And no I'm not telling what her name is! You'll just have to find out for yourself!
Gia: Meep...-_- I hate school...it has brainwashed me...If I don't get the next chapter up soon, just assume that my brain has died of being over- educated...
The next morning, Manta woke early, ate, took a quick shower, got dressed, and headed off to school. He was still very anxious to see the young girl that he had met in the cemetery yesterday night. As he walked in the door of his classroom, he looked around expecting to see her, but to his surprise, she wasn't in the classroom at al. He sighed slightly and took his seat occasionally looking up at the clock. Suddenly the teacher walked in the door. He sat at his desk and then got the class's attention.
"Class, we have a new student joining us today. I expect that she'll be here soon."
Suddenly the bell rang, and the doorknob turned. All eyes in the classroom darted over to the door and stared. The door opened and in walked a fairly tall girl with her hair tied up in a neat pony tail. As she walked over to the teacher's desk, Manta smiled broadly. He knew that this girl was the one that he saw in the cemetery yesterday night, since she had the same distinct features. Then the teacher stood up and looked at the girl, then the class.
"Class, this is our new student. She just moved here from Osaka with her parents, and is hopefully planning to stay with us for the rest of the semester. I'm sure you'll all make her feel welcome."
The teacher turned to the girl, smiled, and nodded to let her know that she could start telling the class about herself. She looked up at him, smiled and nodded back, then turned to the class, cleared her throat and began talking in a low, calm voice.
"Hello there, nice to meet you. My name is Sachiko Matsura. I'm thirteen years old, and I was born on the twelfth of December in 1990. My family and I moved here from Osaka because my father got a new job that required us to move. Even though I somewhat nervous, I hope that I get to know all of you very soon."
She smiled, and took a seat in the front next to Manta. She glanced around the room once, and then yawned slightly. Manta looked up ay her and smirked slightly.
"Are you tired or are you just bored?"
Sachiko looked over at Manta, then smiled and shook her head.
"Nah, it's just that I need to rest a lot. You might not understand, but I'm a shaman, and I need to rest a lot, so that I can achieve the maximum amount of strength when I integrate with a spirit."
Manta's eyes widened as he stared at her with great interest.
"You're a shaman also???"
"Yes I am. Why? Are you a shaman?"
"Me? No, I'm not a shaman, but my friend Yoh is a shaman. Want to meet him?"
Sachiko's eyes widened She just stared at Manta for a second, then looked towards the back of the classroom.
"Which one is he? Is he the one that's half asleep?"
Manta nodded slowly.
"Yup, that's Yoh alright. Always half asleep it seems."
He chuckled slightly and looked up at Sachiko. He looked a little puzzled, as she was glaring back at Yoh.
"Are you okay, Sachiko? You seem angry."
She briefly looked at Manta, and then continued glaring at Yoh. Her eyes were narrowed and her shoulder muscles were tense. Thoughts began to quickly race through her mind.
"Manta, listen carefully, I need to meet someone in the cemetery tonight. If you want to come, that's fine, but you don't have to."
Manta looked over at Sachiko, and then shook his head.
"I'll come. I don't mind."
She smiled and thanked him. After school was over, Sachiko hurried to her locker, met Manta and set off to the cemetery. As they were walking, Sachiko occasionally said a few things to Manta.
"I think you'll find this very interesting, Manta. I think you'll really like this."
As they neared the cemetery, Manta saw a figure standing, and waiting for someone. As they got closer, Manta was surprised to find out that is was his best friend Yoh.
"Yoh, what are you doing here?"
"I was waiting for a girl named Sachiko to meet me here."
Manta's eyes widened as he gazed upward at Sachiko, then over at Yoh. He wasn't quite sure what was going to happen, but he figured it was going to be something big.
