::::Hi readers. Wondering who the new visitor is? Well, you probably know already cuz in the previous chapter, before you started reading, I was already talking about this chapter. Hee! So what happened before, oh yes! We had Kalim & the girls, Anna, Pilica, and Tamara watching soap operas. Then it went on to when Rio, June, Silva, & the twins, Lip & Rap finished making California rolls, then to when Kalim had NO idea how to make tea! LOL then uhh....when Pilica & Anna were arguing about who's gonna be Shaman King...ok....now, we come to the part we're all curious about:
When Morty & Kororo came back to the dining room, Morty walked over to the guys, Yoh, Trey, & Len to bring them the juice.
"Hey thanks, buddy!" Yoh said pouring juice in his cup & drinking it.
"Yeah!" Trey said doing the same.
"No problem," Morty said.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang.
"I'll get it," Yoh said.
So he walked to the door with Morty & Kororo following him. As he opened the door, there was a tall, mysterious figure standing right in front of them. It was dressed in a white overcoat with a big hat.
"Guten-tag, old friend," the figure said.
"Guten-tag," Morty thought. "That's 'hello' in German. And we only know one person who's from Germany.....eek! Oh no, it better not be who I think it is!"
"Uh, what does that mean again?" Yoh asked.
"It means 'hello' in German," the figure said. "Don't you guys remember me?"
"Uh, I can't really recognize you with your overcoat collar covering your face," Yoh said squinting his eyes.
"Well, before I expose myself," the figure said. "Can you please do me a favor?"
"Um, no thank you!" Morty shrieked stepping back.
"Um, okay," Yoh said. Morty jumped out of his shoes.
"Are you nuts, Yoh?!" Morty exclaimed. "Can't you recognize this guy already?! You're not gonna believe what he did to us!"
"I'm afraid your little friend might have to step out of this, please," the figure said.
"No, I'm staying right here!" Morty yelled. "I'll expose you! You're-"
"Morty, stop," Yoh said. "Let me listen to what this guy have to say."
"Yoh..." Morty said. But he was afraid of what the figure was about to do to him.
"Ahem," the figure said clearing his throat. "Alright, promise me this: If you apologize to me about what you said about Eliza, then I won't hurt your little friend again."
"Eliza," Yoh said. "Then that means you're..."
"Yes," the figure said, uncovering his face from his overcoat's collar. "It's me, Faust VIII."
Morty was shaking so nervously. His mind was telling him to run, but his legs wouldn't move.
"Morty," Faust said. "I'm so sorry about what happened when me & Yoh were fighting. I'm sorry I had to use you like that. Will you forgive me?"
"Uh, uh, uh," Morty said stumbling with his words.
"I forgive you," Yoh said with a smile. "Eliza IS real. Her spirit lives on."
"Yes," Faust said. "May I come in?"
"Uh, sure," Yoh said.
"Eep!" Morty said running away.
When Morty ran, he started running around the house warning about Faust.
"Skeleton-boy alert!" Morty yelled. "Faust VIII is here! Skeleton-boy alert!"
"So?" Trey said.
"He's gonna experiment on you!" Morty yelled grabbing Trey in the collar while Kororo is pulling on the back of Morty's shirt, trying to restrain him.
"Huh?" Trey said looking at him blankly.
"Don't be such an idiot!" yelled Morty. "Faust is a necromancer! He one time experimented me by cutting up my stomach! You're not gonna like the way he messes with your guts!"
"WHAT?!!!" Trey screamed. He got up & ran into the den. The Kalim & the girls were staring blankly at him.
"What are you doing here?!" Anna yelled.
"We're under attack!" Trey screamed.
"Keep your game outside of here!" Anna yelled. "We're trying to watch a show!"
"But, but-"
"GET OUT NOW!!!!!!" Anna yelled as she threw Trey out of the den.
"Such strength," Kalim thought.
When Trey was thrown out of the den, he landed right in front of Faust's feet.
"Ow," Trey moaned.
"Uh, hello there," Faust said looking down.
Trey slowly looked up & saw Faust.
"Oh no, it's you!" Trey yelled. "P-Please don't cut me up!"
"Don't worry, I won't," Faust said.
"Eek, not you!" Rio shivered.
Silva gasped. The twins were curious about Faust.
"Who's he?" Lip asked.
"That's Faust VIII," Silva said. "He was the one who beat & killed a man named Da Vinci during the shaman tournament. He almost killed Yoh too."
"Then that means..." Lip said breaking off.
"...he's a murderer," Rap said finishing Lip's sentence.
"Yes," Silva said as he stood up and walked over to Faust.
"Hello," Faust said. "You must be one of the Shaman officiants."
"I am," Silva said. "And you have no right to come in."
"But Yoh Asakura said I'm welcome," Faust said. "If he wants me to leave, then I'll leave."
"No, Faust can stay," Yoh said. "He's a good guy."
"Yoh, are you sure about this?" Silva said.
"Yes I am, Silva," Yoh said. "His true bright side is finally revealed."
"Then I must talk to Faust alone for a moment," Silva said.
"Uh, okay," Yoh said.
So Silva took Faust to a disclosed area to talk to him.
"I am only letting you stay because Yoh gives you permission," Silva said. "But if you're planning anymore scam, then I must ask him to kick you out of this place & ask the chieftain, who is in charge of the tournament, to disqualify you."
"Please forgive me," Faust said. "I was blinded by darkness & it filled me with hate. I'm sorry I tried to kill Yoh & that I killed the opponent before him."
"If you ever do any of this again, then your chance of becoming Shaman King will be gone forever," Silva said.
"Alright," Faust said nodding his head.
Then Silva and Faust walked back to the dining room. A lot of people were discussing to Yoh about Faust.
"Are you sure it's okay to let skeleton-boy hang out with us?" Rio asked.
"Yes, Rio," Yoh said. "He's actually nice once you really get to know him."
"But what about the troubles that he caused you & Morty?" June asked.
"He apologized," Yoh said. "No biggie."
"But who knows what other tricks he have up his sleeves," Morty said.
Kororo squealed in agreement.
"Yeah," Trey said. "He might try to experiment all of us!"
"He won't," Yoh said. "We made a promise!"
"What promise?" everybody asked.
"He promised that if I don't talk bad about Eliza, then he won't experiment on Morty," Yoh said.
"Yeah, ONLY Morty!" Trey said. "What about the rest of us?"
"He won't experiment on us," Anna said coming in.
"Anna!" Yoh said. "Um, I can explain."
"No, let ME explain," Anna said. "It's alright, everyone. He may have a smell of gory blood, but he has a pleasant heart."
"Are you sure, Anna?" Trey said. "What he does still haunts me!"
"I'm positive," Anna said walking back to the den.
Then Faust finally walked in.
"Guten-tag, my new friends," he said.
"Uh, hi Faust," Trey said.
"Hello," Faust said. "May I get to know you all?"
"Sure," Yoh said. "As you know already, I'm Yoh Asakura, you already know Morty Oyamada."
"What about you?" Faust said to Trey.
"I'm nobody!" Trey said.
"No you're not!" Yoh laughed. "Tell him your name!"
"Alright!" Trey said. "I'm Horo Horo. But then again, I'm known as Trey Racer."
"I'm Rio," Rio said. "I run the dead enders."
"I'm Tao June," June said. "Tao is my last name."
"What about the boy next to you, June?" Faust asked referring to Len.
"That's my brother, Len," June said.
"Oh yes!" Faust said. "I remember him. He was the one who stopped me from killing Yoh."
"I heard," June said.
"Hey, thanks for saving my butt there, Len," Yoh said.
"Tch," Len scoffed rolling his eyes.
"Oh yes!" Faust said. "I forgot about these twin Koropokkurs! What are their names?"
"We're not Koropokkurs!" Lip yelled. "We're human-beings!" Then she cleared her angry tone to regular. "I'm Lip."
"And I'm Rap," Rap said.
"We are part of the Shaman executive committee," Lip said.
"So you're just like Silva?" Faust said.
"Well, sorta," Rap said.
"They're TRAINING to become an officiant," Silva chuckled.
"NO!" Lip whined. "Not the 'T' word! That word is sooo annoying! It makes me wanna scream! I hate it when I'm still low ranked! It makes me feel so unloved! I just hate when I HAVE to say 'I'm training to become an officiant' and then :rants on and on and on and on until....: "
"Okay, Lip!" Rap yelled. "We get the point! I hate that word too!"
"Yay!" Lip said. "I'm not the only one!"
"Well, it's nice to meet you, Lip & Rap," Faust said. "Is there anymore people around that I haven't met?"
"Well, I can introduce you to the girls," Yoh said. "They're watching soap operas in the den."
"Did you say soap operas?" Faust said with a smile. "I haven't watched them for a long time since I had to train for the Shaman tournament! Eliza & I used to watched them together back in Germany."
"I see..." Yoh said nervously.
So he took Faust to the den.
"Can Faust get to know you girls?" Yoh said as he opened the door.
"Hey, I'm not a girl!" Kalim exclaimed.
"Oops, sorry Kalim," Yoh chuckled.
"Make it quick," Anna said. "I'm Anna."
"Anna who?" Faust asked.
":Sigh:," Anna sighed. "Anna Kyoyama. Yoh's wife."
"What?!" Faust said. "Did she just say-?"
"No questions about it please," Anna said.
"I'm Kalim," Kalim said. "One of the ten shaman tournament officiants."
"I'm Pilica," Pilica said. "I'm Trey's sister."
"And I'm Tamara," Tamara said. "I'm just here to stay for a while."
"It's nice to meet you all," Faust said. "I'm Faust VIII. I was Yoh's opponent during the second preliminary round of the first part of the tournament."
"Thanks for introducing yourself, Faust," Anna said. "Now if you excuse us, but we're watching a show here."
"Do you mind if I stay & watch?" Faust asked.
"I don't care," Anna said. "If you wanna goof around, hang out with the boys, but if you wanna just relax & watch something, hang around here."
"Thanks for the offer, Anna," Faust said with a smile.
"Whatever," Anna said.
So Yoh decided to go back to the dining room with the other guys.
