Hello all! This is my first Shaman King fic, I've been trying to know the show and characters so I could write one and now I can!

I love horses and I decided to write this because I want to let you all know that! Not a lot of people have animals in their fics so I'm gonna be different, not too hard a task for me to complete 0.o

I hope you enjoy reading this because I love these types of fics.

The Horse Whisperer

Chapter one – Dreams with a message

Thundering hooves…flaring nostrils…flying manes…glistening eyes…echoing neighs…then darkness…a horn sounds…a truck is coming…the rearing shadow of a large body…smashing glass…a cry of pain…quiet snowfall…

Yoh sat up in bed, sweating and gasping for breath. This was the third time in a week that these strange dreams had occurred. At first they had started out as ordinary dreams, nice dreams, but then they got worse. But the strangest thing was…they all had horses in them, or from what he could tell anyway. As far as he knew it was only a horse that could neigh and that was the sound he kept hearing.

Getting out of bed he headed for the bathroom and washed his face with cold water, quite refreshing after waking up boiling hot. He took a towel and wiped his face but when he closed his eyes the image of a horse appeared in his mind. He shot them back open again. God, even when he was awake he saw them. Walking back into the bedroom he sat on the bed and looked at the clock – 3:15am.

Great, another sleepless night, he thought. Why was he having them, why? No one knew about them, he didn't tell any of his friends as he thought they were only random dreams. But they had been going on for almost two months now and they were always about the same thing…darkness, neighing and the sound of a truck's horn. What did they mean?

Climbing under the bed covers he slowly closed his eyes and hoped he would be able to have a peaceful sleep.

The next morning was warm and dry so going outside seemed like a good idea. Yoh and Morty were relaxing out in the sun in the back garden but decided to go for a walk before Anna came home. "There's nothing like doing nothing, eh Morty?"

"Sure isn't! Though I still can't believe that you, your brother and your dad all live in the same house now. Not to mention Anna as well"

"Yeah, but things couldn't be better now that me and Hao get along now"

"Things couldn't be better? I wouldn't say that when you haven't done the chores Anna set for you, again"

"So, Hao can do them" His small friend just sighed. "Listen Morty, I gotto go talk to Ren about something, can I meet you later?"

"Sure, there's some things I need to do that you probably would find boring anyway, see ya!"

"Bye" He watched Morty disappear and then entered a turning, walking down a dirt track. He kept walking until he reached some open fields and a very large house. On one side of the house was another building, not as tall but wider in length. He walked up to the house and rang the bell. A young woman with green hair answered it. "Hey there!"

"Hey Jun, is your little bro about?"

"Yeah, he's upstairs. You can go up and see him" She opened the door a bit wider and moved to the side so he could walk in. He'd been to Ren's house loads of times before so he knew where to go and headed up the stairs to a large wooden door with a gold handle. He knocked a couple of times and a voice inside told him to come in. Yoh found him sitting on his bed, legs crossed, with a book on his lap.

"What you doing?"

"I'm looking at a book"

"Uh, I can see that but what book is it?" Yoh sat beside him on the bed and peered at the open pages to find they were photos. "Cool, photos"

"I found it when I was in the attic earlier"

"You spent your day in the attic?"

"No, I went looking for something" He shut the book and placed it under his bed. "You want to ask me something don't you?" He got up and walked over to his large wardrobe and began to look through it.

"How'd you know?"

"Because you always come round by yourself when you want to ask me something" He continued to look through the large amount of clothes and growled when he finally closed it.

"What are you looking for?" Ren just ignored him and opened a set of drawers beside his bed. He smiled when he pulled out a pair of black leather gloves. "What are those?"

"Gloves, are you that blind?" He put them on and walked towards his door. "Are you coming or are you going to stay here?"

"I better come 'cause I'll never find my way back out of this place without you" He followed Ren downstairs and out into the yard. They walked to the large building across from the house and Yoh stopped when Ren opened the door.

"You going to wait outside again?" asked Ren.

"You know I don't like what's in there" Ren ignored him and went inside leaving Yoh in the doorway. He peeked in and watched Ren open another door and disappeared behind it. He quivered slightly when he thought of what was going to come out with Ren. He walked over to a small pile of hay bales beside a field and sat on them. After five minutes Ren emerged back out, leading a large white horse wearing a brown bridal. He opened the gate to the field and unhooked the leading rein. The horse galloped around with joy at being out in the open. Ren went and sat on the hay bails beside Yoh and watched the horse.

"I don't get why you don't like horses"

"I just don't"

"You almost told me before, why won't you let me know?"

"Let's just drop it. Anyway I came here to ask you a question" Ren looked at him. "I've been having these dreams; they're hard to explain…"

"Hey, I'm not expert on helping with silly dreams…"

"No, I wanted to ask you because I believe you'll understand this. I've been having dreams about…horses. And in them, I can only see faint images of a horse and a person. There's a truck in it too and it seems like they get hit by it because I hear its horn blaring and the horse crying out in pain…along with the person"

"That's one sick dream. What do you eat before you go to bed?"

"It's not a joke Ren, I always wake up in a sweat and I find it hard to go back to sleep afterwards. It's been going on for a couple of months now"

"And, how am I going to help you with this?" You remained quiet for a moment while watching the white animal graze in the pasture.

"Because I think it's telling me an accident is going to happen…to you" Ren blinked a couple times before laughing.

"You honestly think that these weird dreams you're having are telling you my future?" He laughed again but Yoh didn't find any of it funny as he glared at him.

"But it makes sense. You're the only one I know that owns a horse and knows how to ride. I'm being serious here and you seem to find it all funny"

"Yoh, there are other people that own horses around here. Why do you think it's me?"

"I just do. I don't dream about random people and I really think you should take this seriously like me. I don't have the same dream for two months straight when it's this bad" Yoh watched Ren jump down from beside him and walk up to the fence. He whistled loudly and the horse looked up before cantering over to him. He stroked the long nose and smiled when it nickered in contentment.

"Listen Yoh, I think you're taking this dream thing too seriously, it's only a dream. Dreams don't mean anything"

"You don't get it do you!" Ren looked a little taken back at his outburst. "I have the SAME bad dream about a HORSE being hit by a TRUCK along with its RIDER at least three times a week. This isn't something to be ignored"

"You know I'm a careful rider. And besides I never put White Phoenix in danger"

"I know that but…"

"Then why are you so bent on proving your vision is gonna come true?"

"Because I don't want you or anyone else to get hurt" Ren looked away from Yoh and leaned his forehead against the stallion's large nose. The horse nuzzled him slightly as if to ask him to stroke him. "Please Ren…" He pulled his head back up and then walked off in the direction of the stable. "Where are you going?" He was ignored as Ren disappeared into the building and re-appeared with a saddle and bridle.

"I'm going for a ride"

"Why?"

"Because if I stay here any longer then I'm going to have a big fallout with you and I don't want that" He tied up the saddle and removed the ordinary bridle to replace it with the riding one. He jumped onto the horse's back and took one last look at Yoh before galloping away. Yoh watched as he disappeared, leaving him standing in the yard alone. He sighed sadly and decided to go home before Anna found out he hadn't done his chores.

Well what do think? I don't think you'll see a lot of Anna or the girls in this as I'm planning to make this a yaoi. Before you all start asking me questions about the horse's name, if you can recall, that is what Ren calls it when he is using it to battle Yoh in the T.V. show. I didn't just randomly name it that.

Remember to review!
