Author's note: I do not own Shaman King. Period…. Oh, and if you're still confused, when they mention Hao it means Yoh's body and viseversa.

P.S. Thank you for the reviews, here's the next chapter

Chapter I: Act like ourselves

"What!" screamed everyone in unision at Anna's last statement.

"You heard me, we'll be taking them back to Japan. I hope there are no questions, comments or objections." She said in a demanding and rather final way.

Everyone merely nodded mutely, knowing what a slap Anna was capable off. Well, almost everyone knew….

"Why do I have to go with you!" hissed the older Asakura, he wanted to be alone and no one would take him seriously in his younger brother's body, he knew full well of Yoh's lazy attitude. Then again, he had to keep watch on his body, Yoh was not going to destroy his reputation, and certainly not act stupidly with it.

"Are you sure you don't want to supervise your body?" Anna said this, smirking at Hao's sullen face.

"…… Fine, I'll go….." was the reply, Hao looked murderous and reluctantly followed the group.

Five days later

After a few hours of unloading bags, luggage and random pieces of Patch merchandise, everything looked normal in an average human's eye. But if they were to hear of the incident, well needless to say, they'll just laugh and probably wave it off.

Unless they saw it through the eyes of two certain brothers.

"Aniki! What more to you want me to do!" screamed Yoh, who was sitting with several fat encyclopedias on his lap.

"Sit properly, first of all, I do not slouch, or sleep in the middle of class, or wear headphones…… I have a list for you to memorize on what to do or not to do with my body." Said Hao, frowning at Yoh's near sobbing face.

"And I do not cry!" yelled the frustrated Hao, who was fed up with Yoh's antics.

"That's enough both of you, two days from now, we have to go to school. So both of you better behave." Said Anna, she looked as if she was about to make them do something, and true to the look she was giving them, she did.

A few moments later, both Asakuras were in the electric chair position, with three jars filled with water balanced between their arms.

Yoh was having trouble, Hao was fine, but he still didn't like the fact that the Itako was always giving him orders. He should be the one giving orders, not some Iwanttobethewifeoftheshamanking woman who seriously needs to learn how to cook.

"Why do I have to train as well!" snapped the older shaman, though carefully so as not to upset the jars of water.

"Because I also have to train Yoh's body and mentality……." Replied the itako, Hao shot her a glare that could melt ice in Pluto.

Dinner was most welcome after the exercise, but Hao kept on telling Yoh what not to do, which outnumbered the to do list by around three dozen numbers.

Anna watched t.v., everyone else was having a hard time getting used to calling Hao and Yoh their proper names, especially since that night that Ren thought that Yoh, once again, was Hao and nearly turned the younger Asakura into a piece of roadkill. Hao was furious at that and, in turn, burned Ren's kwan do and threatened the Chinese shaman to the point of giving him a phobia.

Yoh was in the kitchen, reading the long list that his Aniki gave to him.

It read:

Not to do

1.slacking off

2.changing my appearance(clothes are understandable though, I know humans will find you strange)

3.sleeping during non-sleeping time (I know your habit)

4.not eating properly

5.getting my body into trouble

6.Too much interaction with humans, avoid this as much as possible

………………

Yoh never got to finish the list.Why? He fell asleep after two minutes of reading something not to his interest.

"Psstt….. Yoh….. Hey Yoh!" someone whispered from behind a wall corner, throwing a small wad of paper at the sleeping shaman.

"Huh..? What? Who?" said the startled shaman, jerking from his sleep, only to see Horo Horo crouching and calling him.

"Wanna play hookey? It's better than staying here and getting that special training menu Anna cooked up……" said the blue-haired Anui boy, grinning like he usually did.

Yoh smiled and proceeded to tiptoeing outside the room, quickly dashing out of the house with his mischievious friend.

Only to be foiled by his one and only brother, who else but Hao, who looked as if he was about to turn Yoh into a smouldering pile of ash and soot.

"Where do you think you're going!..." he scolded both his younger brother and the anui mastermind.

"Dude, you should try to act like Yoh... slack off a bit!" said Horo Horo, amazed at his own boldness.

"Slack off! Slack off! And what am I supposed to do! Watch my reputation be replaced with one of shame! I.will.not.tolerate.so!" replied the Older Asakura, who was practically shaking in pure anger.

"...Dude! Chill out already, we're just going out to have some fun, a movie here some food there... It's as if you don'tknow how to party!"

That was a very stupid question to ask a man who lived for over one thousands years and still didn't like to socialize. Little did Horo Horo know that that little sentence was going to put him in a very, very, very akward position

It was not good to contradict Asakura Hao's judgement, whether good or not. And it was definetely not good to call him 'Dude'.

And sure enough...

That was one thing Horo Horo learned today that would probably scar him for the rest of his life. Hao made sure of that, yep, the memory of a fiery blade of pure furiyokumissing his head by mere millimeters was there to stay.
