Kaida: YAY!! This is my favorite chapter!! We don't own Shaman King. There, now we can get onto the chapter, have fun.

(Kara hums as she walks down the street. She goes for a couple blocks, and then realizes that she has no clue how to get back to her house from Anna's. She tries to turn around and go back, but gets lost... again. She wanders around for a couple of hours, and the only things she can find are restaurants, which she can't buy any food from since she doesn't have any money. Kara continues to wander, and the sun sets, darkness seeping all around until the street lamps split it)

K: (groan) Great, lovely, as if finding my way around was hard enough in the LIGHT you have to make it DARK! STUPID SUN!!! (Kara continues to wander) WAIT!! I've seen that restaurant before!! NO I'VE BEEN GOING IN CIRCLES!

(Kicks a lamppost) OH I know! I'll use the restaurants phone to call G-ma or Anna! (Holds her hand up in triumph) Wait I don't know their numbers... (Heavy sigh)

Ren: Hn. So YOU'RE who I'm "teamed up" with? I really didn't expect you to be such an idiot.

(Kara whips around, daggers flashing into her hands) Who the hell are you?

R: Ren Tao. And I'm depressed to say; I'm your arranged fiancée.

(Kara goes out of fighting stance, and her daggers disappear. She glares at Ren) As if I am glad. (Dry laugh) To tell you the truth I was thinking of killing the poor fool they told me so I could get out of it.

R: Hn, well, you have the chance, though it's doubtful you'll succeed. (Goes into stance) I see we have something in common. I planned on killing you too. The shaman world only needs one ruler...me. And, by the looks of it, you believe that "shaman" could very well be a brand of laundry detergent.

(Kara blinks and looks warily at him, pulling out her daggers again)

R: So this gives me the upper hand. I told my parents I wasn't going to marry anyone who couldn't beat me. And I told them I wouldn't marry anyone who could. So I'm essentially in the clear. One thing stands in my way...you. And by the looks of it, your ghost is as pathetic as you are.

K: (raises eyebrows at the ghost comment, but says nothing about that) Heh, well then as soon as I beat you I can relax, no?

R: I don't think you have to worry about what will happen if you beat me. Because that's not going to happen.

K: (Tenses, ready to fight) Were you planning on attacking? Or did you just feel like a chat?

R: I thought I would be a gentleman... ladies first.

K: (rolls eyes) So old fashioned, but very well, have it your way.

(Kara charges Ren, at the last minute she squats and spins behind him, spinning up with her daggers facing out and back, she slashes at his back)

R: (quickly retaliates) Not quick enough

K: (blocks Ren's blows) Feh, this is warm up.

R: Then let's get down to business shall we?

(Kara back flips, hoping to recover some ground, and decide what to do next. She analyzes Ren, looking for weaknesses)

R: BASON INTEGRATE!!!

K: (mutters) Grand another psycho...

Ren-Bason: Ha like I said, you're a non-believer...a cockroach...a scuzz... Now, I suggest you integrate before I slice you in half.

K: A scuzz? (Laughs slightly at the word) Look just fight idiot, or are you suddenly growing feelings for me, and don't wanna fight anymore? (Teasing him)

R-B: I am growing feelings for you...a feeling called loathing! (Ren attacks)

(Kara barely dodges, and looks at Ren with slight surprise. Before she was able to dodge, now she barely could. Every attack Ren made seemed to come closer... and closer...)

R-B: ha! This time I'll hit! (Attacks)

(Ren's attack came closer, there was no way she would be able to block it, there was no way. And then something changed, she shifted her body, with years upon years upon years of experience, this was just another fight, another block. But wait, years upon years? What the heck was happening, her body seemed to move leaving her mind behind)

Kara-Tori: nice try, but I'm not through yet... (She throws off Ren's weapon)

R-B: Heh, your strong...let's test your strength!! (He lunges and hits her shoulder)

K-T: Bastard! That hurt!! (She throws dagger, hits Ren in the thigh, then she flashes out another dagger, and runs on Ren's left side, the side with the dagger in its thigh. Her shoulder is slightly leaning in from the hit, but that doesn't effect anything as she fakes right, and goes left cutting Ren's already damaged leg)

(R-B grunts slightly, but still ends up slashing at K-T's injured shoulder side. A deep gash appears on K-T's arm, and she drops the dagger in that hand, unable to hold it any longer)

K-T: Damn

R-B: (thinking) She's strong...have I finally met my match?

(Kara's thoughts are in turmoil, but one thought rings clear. He's strong...have I met a match? It seemed to be the only thoughts the both of them shared. Wait a minute, the BOTH of them??)

R: (struggles and stands) Enjoy whatever two minutes of life you have left.

(K-T turns her injured arm over to the side opposite of r-b, holding her dagger up between the two of them)

K-T: You can't even walk, is now really the time for death threats? (Strained laugh)

R-B: I'm amazed u can still breath let alone laugh...

(Both R-B and K-T tense up, both throwing themselves into a charge at each other. But before either of them get more then one step... both black out, darkness seducing them to a deep unconsciousness

Kaida: Well, please review, even if you have something you think we should fix... We can try and make it better. Try not to be possessed by any ghosts; we'd like to see you back here to read our next chapter! Chao!
