"EMUS NOKI-PEKONR!! Icicle sword!!" Ikaru yelled as a giant icicle appeared at the bottom of his snowboard. He charged toward Ren12. Ren12 dodged the icicle easily, and countered with one of his own moves. He swiped the spear sideways at Ikaru. Ikaru jumped upward and the icicle got cut in half. ' / aww man! I forgot about the icicle! / 'Ikaru thought. "KAUKAU PRIWENPE! Renegade Hail!!" IKAru yelled as Chunks of ice flew at Ren12. Ren12 dodged most of them easily. "haha! Is that the best you can do!? You punks are worthle—Ooog!" Ren12 yelled as chunk of ice whacked his face. Seeing his chance, Ikaru jumped at ren12, with the icicle at the bottom of his snowboard. He landed a square hit on ren12's head. But, sadly, the icicle only cut ren12's spike in half. Ikaru quickly jumped back before Ren12 could hit him.
Koru
Ikaru's icicle landed in the ground. So, Ikaru was technically parallel to the ground. "MOSOSO KRUPPE!! The frost that rouses the sleeping!!" Ikaru yelled as spikes came out from the ground. Ren12 jumped. "Vorpal dance! Zhong Hua Zhan wu!!!" Ren 12 yelled as the spear plowed into Ikaru's waist. Ikaru fell to the ground. He appeared dead. "IKARU!!" Yahono yelled and ran to Ikaru. Then he turned to ren12. "you'll pay for what you did to Ikaru... You shark haired freak!!" Yahono said and quickly integrated with Yoh. "CHARGE!!!!!!" Yahono yelled. Ren12 charged to meet him and both spear and sword clashed together. They were thrown back by the force. Yahono was flying back towards a tree. He caught himself and jumped straight off the tree. "Time for my move!! Hyper slash!!" he said and swung his sword downward to hit ren12. ren12 suffered a cut forehead.

"aaaahh!! You fools!! What did you do!?" ren12 yelled. Ren quickly healed. "grr... 100 integration!! REN!!!" ren12 yelled. "VORPAL DANCE!! ZHONG HUA ZHAN WU!!!!" Ren12 said and was two inches away from Yahono's face. "jump this way!!" a voice said and just in time, Yahono jumped away. "who said that?" Yahono said and looked toward Ikaru. Ikaru was standing, with an unknown boy standing next to him. The other boy had red hair. He was about the same size as Yahono, and his eyes were narrowed. "My name is Riku. I am a shaman. I could already tell you were one from the way you battled." Riku said. "I'm gonna help you out. "Riku finished. Yahono nodded his head silently. "m-me too." Ikaru said. Ren12 looked around. "three against one? What a pity. I thought you were all stronger than this. Now you need three just to fight me. Pathetic," Ren12 said and charged toward all three of them. WAANG!! The spear made a sickening noise as it hit.... The ground. Quickly, Riku jumped onto a high branch. His ghost appeared behind him. Yahono, Ikaru, and Riku looked up. "h...his ghost is a ninja!!" Ikaru said. "not just any ninja... its...
Koru
"The most elite shinobi ever... Oranmaru!!" Yahono said. Riku grinned. "Oranmaru... Integrate!" Riku said and jumped down the tree, with two kunai knives in his hand. He was running really fast. He was right at Ren12's face. "fool! You just got yourself in my attack range!! Hahahahaha!!" Ren12 said victoriously, and met Riku in midair. Ren12 swung his spear forward. "Smoke bomb!!" Riku yelled, and in a flash, everything was cloudy. "koffkoff koff KOFF!! AKH!! KH KH!!" Ren12 coughed. Riku appeared behind him. " did you think I would be fooled that easily?" he said. Riku plunged the Kunai into Ren12's right arm. "aaa---AAAHHHHHH!!!!!" Ren12 yelled in pain. He swung the spear with his left hand behind him, and they saw flashes of red splash out from Riku's back.
X60
Ren12 saw the red and laughed. "I got you, fool!!" he said. Ren12's right arm was drenched in blood. Riku returned Ren12's grin. "Do you think that... Just because you see red... it's blood?" he said. Yahono and Ikaru looked closely. "he didn't hit Riku! He missed by a little and just cut some of his hair!!" Ikaru yelled. He was right—small pieces of hair fell from the spear onto the ground. Riku disappeared again. Ren12 looked around. He looked everywhere. "he looks.. scared. Riku is kicking his ass! ' Yahono realized suddenly. Riku was on a tree branch. Watching ren12's every move.. waiting for a chance to attack. Ren12 concentrated. Hard. "There!!" he said and swung his spear to the right. 'Art of illusion... bloody shadows!!' Ren12 looked right. He saw Riku there, bloody and his arm cut. "Hahaha... HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!" Ren12 yelled and laughed. He went forward and kicked.... Air. Riku grinned and disappeared in a cloud. "Just an illusion!" Ren12 screamed. The real Riku, Seeing his chance to attack, threw caltrops on the ground and threw a shuriken at ren12.
Koru
Seeing the caltrops on the ground, Ren12 panicked. 'no place to move... nowhere to go! There's no way to dodge this! I can't dodge a little shuriken! Pathetic! Too many caltrops!!' he thought right as the shuriken whizzed in front of his face. He ducked. The shuriken flew behind him onto a tree. Riku jumped down. Ren12 looked down. The caltrops.
Ren12's point of view
'the caltrops again! Why must they get in my way!?' I thought. I looked down at my right arm. Bloody. Every part of it. Shoot. I'm right handed. I looked up at the ninja wanna-be. He fools me very easily. I don't like it. And whatever I don't like; they die. On the spot. I gripped my kwan dao tightly. With a yell I cut all the caltrops in two, and charged toward the ninja. "100 integration! Ren!!" I yelled loudly. He Dodged me. I looked right. But there was many of him! One, two, three, four, five, six of him!! This was beyond my knowledge. I had no idea what attack he was using. Nonetheless, I swung my spear towards them.
X60
Riku's point of view
Ren12 had swung his spear toward me. I knew my doppelgangers would disappear if they were hit. So I jumped over his spear. My doppelgangers disappeared. He saw me and kicked upward. He hit the worst spot a boy could ever be hit. The worst spot ever. My most sensitive spot. It felt like it split in two.
Yahono's POV
Ren12 kicked Riku's balls! I couldn't believe it. Riku was winning! This couldn't be happening. Ikaru was still hurt; so I integrated with yoh and charged toward Ren12. "AMIDA-RYU MUSCLE MEMORY SHOCKWAVE BUDDHA-GIRI!!!!!!!!" Yoh/Me Screamed and the sword hit Ren12's back. He fell down. "Impossible. You have... 100 integration? A weakling like you? I can't believe... that by little weaklings... I was so... easily... beaten." Ren12 said and got knocked out. Ikaru was fully healed, so we picked up Riku and ren12 an brought them to the funbari onsen.
Koru
Riku's POV
I was running through the forest, looking...looking for the man who killed my parents. I saw him. He was right in front of me, his back facing me. I pulled out a kunai, and he turned toward me.. and his eyes.. the bloodred eyes!!! I was going to die! He pulled out a sword and--!
"aaaaaaa—AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" I screamed as I awoke. Just a nightmare. I was sweating terribly—and my eyes were beginning to adjust to the light. That boy.. the boy with blond hair... "hey, are you okay? By the way, my name is Yahono." Yahono said, looking closely. "I shoved him away. " Im fine... where am I?" I said, looking at my surroundings. " Funbari onsen. But that's beside the point. You're going to be in the shaman fight, right!? Join our crew!!" the blue haired kid said. I acknowledged the offer. Why not? I was trying to avenge my parent's killer. They would get in my way. But, If I join his crew... maybe I could find Kaishi, and kill him. "Fine," I said. "But just so you know, I'm only joining this crew to get revenge on my parent's killer. So stay outta my way." I said. Yahono and Ikaru's head bobbed up and down, nodding silently.
Ikaru POV
All right! We got another crew member! Wahoo! PAR-TAY! Haha! Oh, right. Back to reality. "I'm Ikaru. Welcome to the team!" I said and stuck out my hand. HE slapped it away and got up. "Ok... where's the exit?" he said and looked around. "Wha--! You brought him here too!?" He screamed loudly. Ren12 slowly awakened. "Ugh... talk about a good night sleep, you three talk too loud... wait a second. Three!?" He said in horror and jumped back. "RIKU!!!!!!" Ren12 said, half-scared to death. Yahono stepped forward. "anyway... Ren12, the Shaman Fight is this year, and the way it's set up, we need a team of seven. If you join, we'll have four people in our team! So, whaddaya say? Hm? hm?" He said.
X60
First, Ren12 smirked. Then chuckled. "HAHAHA!! Who would join you three!? The ninja I can understand but the weaklings!? No way!!" Ren12 laughed, said, choked on laughter, and tearing from laughing too much, somehow doing all of that at the same time. Yahono looked stern. "but if you don't join us... then which team will you join?"
"Not yours! I'll find another one!"
"No, you won't. Holding grudges the way you do, and the way you treat other people, nobody will want you in their groups,"
"Hah! Nice words of wisdom, very touching. You will never be strong the way you are."
"Yes, I will. It's 'cause I believe in myself. That's something you lack. Join us, and you too, you can become stronger than you are now. I don't care if you're stronger than me."
Ren12 glared. "fine... but know this, I'm only going to join you to know your weaknesses."
Yahono grinned. "I don't care why! I—"he was cut off by the door opening slowly. Yahono's mom came in. "Yahono... I know you've been lonely and all, with only Ikaru and... your little friends there, so me and your dad decided for you to meet a very special person. Yahono... meet Iana!!" His mother said as a girl came through the door.
Koru
Yahono's POV
WOW!! A girl! Finally! The girl of my dreams! OH MY GOD! SHE'S CUUTE! "h...hi..." I said. Iana remained emotionless. "Yahono.. I think something is wrong with her..." Ikaru whispered.
Ikaru's POV
Damn she's hot! Hot!hot! hot! I need water! Yahono looked at me. I forgot that somehow he can read minds. I can read his, too... Back off, Ikaru. She's mine. He said to me in a dangerous tone. The look I sent him told him I understood. But I still liked the girl. Yahono's mom left, Ren12 went to take a pee, and Riku went outside, leaving us, Me and Yahono, with Iana. And... The SHRIMP!?
