Hello sorry for the long wait but I was ill and I have had a lot of college and school work.

I hope this chapter is better then the last one the last chapter was made just to set some events in action and to have some more time spent on the lesser characters of the story.

It was Monday morning and Yoh had just woken up. Admiduaru quickly shouting at him Before Anna could start to beat him.

"Thanks pal."

"Do not worry master Yoh."

From down the stairs Anna could be heard shouting

"Yoh asukua if you don't get down here right this second you will be sorry"

"Just coming Anna" with that he quickly got dressed and went down stairs to eat with Anna and Manta who had come around earlier then normal.

"Hi Manta, what are you doing here? Not that we mind"

"Well I wanted to ask you something?" the short guy said while blushing

"What ever you want you know well help you"

"Thanks pal. I err…want to know if you would train me?"

"What type of training Manta ?"Yoh asked bewildered

"I think that would be clear to see Yoh Mousku is floating behind him for petty sake."

"Oh hi Mouska didn't notice you there"

"Baka" Anna whispered under her breath

"We want to become a shaman team."

"That is right master Manta."

"So will you help us?"

"Of course Manta. You think ill help Ryu and not you?

"Wow thanks Anna"

"No problem shorty"

"Wait a second! You're acting nice to Manta!"

"Well unlike some of your friends he has a brain. And besides he comes in useful some times"

"Master Yoh the time!"

The clock said 8 20. They had 10 minutes to get to school or they'll be late.

"Oh crap" was Yoh reaction. The group grabbed their stuff quickly and left running all the way to school.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

"Where are they? They're nearly late?"

"Don't worry Tam. Yoh most likely just over slept and Anna spent too long beating him up"

"So what have you all been doing this weekend?" Hao had just appeared from behind they group waiting for Yoh causing Chocolove to jump in the air and scream like a little girl.

"Chocolove show some guts!" Ren snapped

"I can't. There inside of me!" Choco instantly replied causing the group to ether hurt him or just groan at him.

"We have been fine Hao. Not that's its any of your business" Horohoro answered while brushing dust from the one-sided fight with Chocolove.

"Horo!" Prika snapped at her sibling

"Come on lets go to lesion. I'm sure Yoh is fine" with that Ren turned and walked to his class followed closely by Pirka.

"You know I've been thinking my sis and Ren have been together quite a lot lately. You think there up to something?"

The group quickly backed away from Horo. None of them wanted to tell him that they had been going out for a couple of months already.

"Isn't it clear. They fancy each other" all apart from Hao that is, who didn't understand just how pissed Horo would be. And even if he did he wasn't worried about it.

"WHAT!"

………………………………………………………………………………

"Keep on running master Manta. The school is just ahead"

"Thanks pal."

The group got to lesson five minutes early but ran into Faust who wrote a note excusing them so they didn't get into trouble.

In the first lesion they all chose a table near the back. Yoh noticed Alexander who was sitting with another boy and a girl. They nodded to each other and when the class was divided into groups of six Yoh Manta and Anna went with Alexander and his friends.

"Hi Yoh. This is Maki and Vespero and there ghost are Garnet and Auron"

"Your shaman too?" Manta asked because he hadn't meet them before

"I am guessing that you are one too. Small person" Vespero spoke while looking down on Manta his voice clam but with a dangerous edge.

"Yes he is and I am his Guardian Mosuka." Who appeared behind his master and stared at Vespero

"And I am Auron Vespero's ghost" behind Vespero a tall man with dark skin. On his back was a bow and at his side was a sword. Around his neck a gold pendent showing he was a Muslim was visible.

"Vespero do you have to start a fight with everyone you ever meet?" The girl Maki spoke in a soft yet strong voice and grabbed Vesperos arm causing him to relax and sit down.

"Do you think he can do anything else but Fight?" Alexander muttered causing Vespro to quickly turn and draw a hidden sword. Alexander quickly grabbed his Hockey stick and the two were in fighting stances. Both waiting the other make the first move before getting there sprits to enter there bodies.

The class was in stunned silence. They had seemed to be friends until one comment sparked them like this.

………………………………………………………………………………………………

"So master what do you think Horo will do when he catches up with Ren? You think there will be blood shed?"

"I think that you won't have to wait that long for bloodshed. A pair of shaman are about to fight." He turned to his two women. "You want to go watch?"

………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Boy's must you always do this?"

"Yes they both shouted at Maki who just backed away and got a medic box out of her bag. Waiting to bandage them up afterwards.

"Don't you think we should stop them? Yoh and Manta asked Anna.

"No" she told them coldly. "I want to see how strong they are"

"Gabril you ready?"

"Yes lord Xander"

"Auron."

"Vespero" the both nodded.

"Glory to God in the highest!"

"Victory to Alli"

The fight started. The two foes had fought in numerous battles. There ghosts had fought centres before and still battled using the shamans bodies.

To fully understand the history between the two Shaman teams you deed to go back.

Alexander was a normal person once, he was brought in a strong christen family and the morals of a warrior and the gift of kindness were deeply engraved into his soul. When his family died in a car crass he was moved to a foster family and a new school. At the school he didn't get on with many of the other children. He was eight at the time and only had one friend. Maki.

Vespero on the other hand was never a normal person. He grew up in an orphanage after his family were killed by the government of his country. This caused him to be bitter and full of hate. To survive in the abusive orphanage he learnt to be violate and with out mercy.

At the age of eight he was adopted and taken to a new country and a school, the same school with Maki and Alexander. He made friends with Maki quickly and Alexander's rival even quicker.

Now they are all 16 (this is set after the shaman games so all the characters are older) and Vespero and Alexander are both in love with Maki.

The history behind there ghosts is a longer story for another day. But lets just say they haven't stopped fighting.

And today was the same.

They charged and a fury of blows was exchanged, dodging and blocking nether could gain the upper hand.

Xander back flipped onto a table

"Nice to see you haven't stopped training"

"Nice to see you haven't ether

Xander leaped forward trying to vertically swap at Vespero, but Vespero countered by grabbing Xanders shoulders and rolling on his back using Xanders own force witch caused him to go flying through a window and land out side. But Xander was quick and rolled when he hit the ground so he could flip up and be ready to counted Vespero as he leaped through the smashed window.

The two faced off again Vespero struck hard and fast relentlessly changing the direction of his strikes making it hard for Xander to evade them.

Leaping back they both took the chance to breath and for the first time since they started fighting they noticed those around them. By now a crowd of pupils were around them chanting the same word

"FIGHT. FIGHT. FIGHT .FIGHT .FIGHT. FIGHT. FIGHT. FIGHT. FIGHT. FIGHT"

……………………………………………………………………………………………

In the doctors office it had been a slow day. With nothing much to do Faust and Eliza had been talking and having fun together. Until they heard the chant.

"My love I believe we will be needed any moment"

"Yes my sweet Eliza I believe you are right."

Just as they were getting a medic kit together a blue haired Shaman rushed into the room.

"Dude you got to come quick. It's a Shaman fight. And a great one at that."

"We are coming Horo horo.

………………………………………………………………………………………………

All the shaman gang could sense the energy of the battle. And they were all draw.

"Wow look at them go"

Chocolove had just summon up what everyone was thinking

"5 bucking on the one with a sword" Manta waged

"I'll take that bet"

"Tamto I didn't think you were a betting person." Admiduaru asked her

Blushing she just giggled while the rest of the gang had time to get there.

"Why are they only doing sprit possion? It's clear that they are both strong enough to do sprit control." Ren mused

"It is because they weren't taught how to. They weren't involved in the shaman games and had no teachers. All they are doing now they taught themselves."

"And how do you know that Hao?" Lyserg questioned even more impressed with the two strangers fighting in front of him

"Because when I was collecting my own shaman team I thought they would be too weak. Clearly I was wrong. If I had trained them they would have been very useful."

Everyone around him gave him a wary look until Maki rushed past them all and went in-between the two boys.

"That enough!" she shouted cause both males to stop instantly.

The boys stopped sprit passion and both still glared at each other clearly wanting to carry on fighting but unwilling to disobey Maki.

Then they noticed that they were bleeding. A lot. They both had numerous cuts and bruises and Vespero noticed that his arm was broken.

Lucky Faust came in time and the two boys were taken to the doctor's office along with Maki who wouldn't leave.

In the doctors office Maki showed her Shamanic power by healing the boys so that all was left were a few scars.

As the boys had there shirts off she noticed how many scars they both had and how nice there bodies were.

…………………………………………………………………………………………….

At lunch the Shaman gang had moved into an empty class room to eat and talk.

"They weren't too shabby."

"Wow high praise from Anna there."

Anna just glared at manta who cowered behind Yoh.

"I wonder who there Ghost were" Jennie asked .

"Well the boy called Alexander. His ghost was that of a templar for the crusades. A powerful warrior indeed. One that I would like to test my own skills on Admiduaru floated around staying near Yoh's shoulder.

"Master Ren the other person Ghost was that of a Desert Warrior skilled in the arts of war. It makes sense that they were fight each other because they once had a 300 year period of war. Between the christen templar and the Muslim desert warriors.

"The crusade you mean Basion?"

"Yes master"

"Well I want to know who the girl was that stopped them. They both seemed to know her and I swear I saw a ghost with her."

"That was Maki and she is a Shaman too."

Faust spoke as he entered the room causing several people to jump

"And how do you know that Faust?"

"Because I told him that." Maki Vespero and Alexander walked into the room from behind Faust.

"I think we have some questions for each other." Alexander spoke

"That I think is true" Anna replied.
