Summary: Karuri's life was pretty normal. Until the day she meets Yoh the shaman and her life changes forever. Soon she's wrapped up in a tangled web of events and finds out she was destined to be involved with shamans from the beginning…
Now she has to figure out a way out of the mess she's gotten into.
Chapter 1- First EncounterThe first time I saw Yoh was when I was on my way back from the shop to my house. My sister and I were living there on our own for a while since our parents went on a world tour for 2 years. Yolei was in University but I was still in school and they wanted me to 'finish my education' instead of go with them on their world tour. My name by the way is Karuri.
So anyway as I turned the corner I noticed him coming in my direction and we both held each others' gaze as we walked past each other. I carried on walking around the corner just as he did but my heart was doing like a million beats per second. I found myself out of breath but carried on waking, breathing. As I approached our house, I took a deep breath before I rang the doorbell. Yolei opened the door and I entered. I had gone to the shop to get a Chinese takeaway. She couldn't be bothered to cook so I got some Chicken-fried Rice.
The next time I see Yoh, and actually meet him this time, is the next day. Yolei went over to a friends to study and I was at home, bored, so I went to the park. I was on my skates and as I went past a long, grassy area with a hill and lots tall, beautiful, green and white flowered trees, I noticed a group of people, their number growing in size. It looked like when there was a fight in the playground at school and they were all crowding around. In the rush of people I noticed a guy I knew from school. His name was Horo Horo but everyone called him Trey. Trey Racer. (Yeh I know it sounds like a busboy racing trays to the kitchen!) He was really cute and had a thing for skateboards and told me how he goes to Canada in the winter to go snowboarding. So in short he's a big time board-head.
I retracted the skates (it was one of those where you push the button on the shoe and the skates pop out/ in) and approached him. He turned as I came nearer.
"Hey Karuri," he called, "There's big fight going on. Some guy cussed some other guy's mom, and the guy was like 'keep my mom outta this!' And the other guy was like 'what are you gonna do about it!' So then the other guy said-"
I cut in, "Trey forget that. What's going on now."
"Well…I dunno. They had started fighting, and they were like right next to me, but then they stopped after a while…"
"Oh ok…so basically nothing," I said.
"Well yeh I guess!" Trey laughed scratching the back of his head.
I rolled my eyes. Then I felt a strange sensation on the back of my neck, like all the hairs standing on end. My heart started to race, my breathing sped up. I started looking around. It was like I was nervous but I didn't know what about. Then I saw him.
From the jostle of just behind Trey emerged Yoh. He was heading this way. My eyes widened a bit. I couldn't believe it was him! I was thinking , 'Oh man! What do I do! What do I do!' He was nearly with us now.
"Trey!" Yoh called out. Trey turned.
"Sup Yoh," he replied and they did some weird secret handshake thing.
'So his name's Yoh,' I thought, 'Wow….Yoh…he's got a nice voice…'
I was practically infatuated with him.
