Chapter 2 Introducing Manta, The Angel of Justice
"I'm . . . an angel?"
"Yep! Well, your body is."
Manta looked down at his small body. "Wow."
Yoh giggled. "I always knew you were special."
Manta blushed. "Yoh -kun . . ."
"How can Manta defeat someone like Yulin?"
Shizuka looked to Anna. "All Manta has to do is put on the necklace, then the soul of the past Manta will enter the body and the rest will take care of itself."
Manta nodded, then was about to put it on when Shizuka suddenly grasped his wrist.
"I must warn you, when he enters you, it will be like no other possession anyone in this room has ever seen or felt. The soul will transform your body, and take full control. You will either be part of his conscious, which will allow you to communicate with him, or you will fall asleep, but don't worry. It's not permanent. After the possession has freed his soul from the gem, he will be able to leave your body like a normal spirit."
Manta nodded once more, then looked up at Yoh. "Yoh-kun . . . I . . ."
"See ya later." Yoh said, understanding that Manta had to do it.
Manta smiled, then slowly placed the necklace on.
"Good luck, Manta-sama."
Tamao's voice seemed to echo in Manta's subconscious, then he slowly fell into a deep slumber as his body began to change.
Manta's body began to glow, then there was a blast of light. Ryu covered Ren, Horo, Kino and Lyserg, while Faust covered Tamao, Yohmei and Anna, and Miki covered Yoh, and the spirits in ghost ball mode.
After a few minutes the glowing stopped, then Yoh stared in astonishment. "Man . . .ta?"
A tall man with long blond/brown hair with white streaks stood before them, staring with a stunned expression. "What . . . happened? What's going on!?!"
Shizuka stepped forward. "Greetings, Manta-sama. I have been sent from a very important temple that I can't remember the name of to welcome you to the 21th century. How ya doin'!?!"
"21th century? What am I doing here?"
"Don't you remember? You volunteered yourself to be put in the necklace you're now wearing so you could come back into your body to fight Yulin when he returned."
"Nani!" Manta drew his sword. "Where is he?!?"
Yoh looked to Shizuka. "Uh, Shizuka, what happened to Manta?"
Shizuka smiled. "It's like I said. He's become the person he was before. The Angel of Justice, Manta."
The angel lifted his sword. "Who . . . are you?"
"Ah!" Seeing the sword, Shizuka jumped back, grabbed a book from the table and threw it at Manta's head. "WHAT THE . . .!" Manta dodged it, then frowned. "What's your problem!?! Oh, never mind! I don't have time for this!" He suddenly leapt out the window and began running down the road.
"Hey wait!" Yoh quickly jumped out into the stormy night, then the group followed.
As Manta ran, his mind was plagued with questions."What's happening!?! I thought he would be gone forever! Wait, does that mean . . . Oh no!"
"Hey, wait up!"
Manta looked back. "Back off! This is none of your concern!"
Yoh frowned. "Of coarse it's my concern! You're Manta!"
The chase continued for about 20 minutes, until Manta suddenly stopped and turned to them. "What do you want?"
Yoh caught his breath, then slowly walked over to him. "You're our friend. We wanna help you."
As he got closer, he became familiar to the angel. "Where am I?"
Yoh smiled. "You're in Tokyo, Japan."
"Tokyo?"
"Yeah."
"Who are you?"
"I'm Asakura . . ."
"Asakura?"
"Hai."
The older Manta stared at Yoh, then suddenly jumped up. "You!"
"Nani?" Yoh suddenly found himself pressed against a wall, a sword to his throat.
"Yoh!" The group, went to battle stance, when Shizuka suddenly jumped in front of Manta. "Don't do it, guys! It's not his fault!"
"Huh?"
The group backed up, then Shizuka placed her hand on the sword. "Look, Manta-sama, You've got it all wrong. I thought the same thing, but don't worry, it's not him."
Manta began pushing the sword into Yoh's throat, but Yoh began to push it away. "Manta, stop it! I'm. . . not King Hao." The young brunette struggled to say.
"Kisama! I thought I sent you to hell!"
Yoh quickly brought his leg up and kicked the sword away, then wrapped his arms around Manta. "Manta, are you still in there?"
"Let go of me!"
"No, not until you realize I'm not King Hao!"
Amidamaru cringed. "Yoh-dono, I'll . . ."
"Don't do it."
The samurai looked to Shizuka. "Nande?"
"I think Yoh-sama should handle this!"
The group backed down again, and watched Yoh and Manta.
Manta began flailing, trying to throw Yoh off, but he wouldn't budge. "Get off me!" He suddenly began giving off white flames of energy. "Get off!!!"
"Iyada!!!" Yoh then began giving off his own flames, except his were blue. Their flames began getting brighter and brighter.
"What are they doing!?!' Horo cried.
Shizuka pulled a small book out from under her robes. She then flipped through the pages and smiled. "Their trying to overpower each other." she stated.
The group watched in amazement as the flames grew. It lasted for about 5 minutes, until Yoh began feeling funny.
"What's . . . happening? I feel really warm and sleepy." After that Yoh suddenly fell limp.
"Yoh!" The group rushed to him, but it was Manta who caught him. The group froze, fearing for Yoh's life.
"Please don't hurt him! He's not King Hao!" Mikihisa cried.
"What happened to Danna?" Ryu asked.
Shizuka smiled. "I get to be smart again! Yea!" She began to hop around with joy, then suddenly became solemn. "Manta-sama is a figure of holiness and peace. His power was much too seductive for Yoh-sama's soul. Yoh-sama became at peace."
Manta looked down at Yoh in confusion, then looked back at the others. "I . . . I could never overpower King Hao. This . . . this can't be him." He lifted Yoh up more, and moved his bangs out of his face, staring for a few seconds, then he opened Yoh's eyes. His face showed shock. "His eyes . . . they're not his. Hao's are silver and dark. These eyes are brown and . . . different." He closed them, then stared at Yoh. "Who are you?"
Shizuka smiled and walked over. "Manta-sama, we've got a lot of explaining to do."
"Mmm . . . mm . . . mh . . . hmm . . . huh?" Yoh slowly opened his eyes to find himself in his futon. "Nani? What . . . what happened?"
"You're awake."
Yoh looked over and saw Angelic Manta sitting by his side. "Man . . . ta?"
"Gommen, Yoh-san. Your friends have explained about you being my reincarnation's friend, and what has happened over the last year with your kisama brother."
Yoh hung his head. "Well, he wasn't that bad."
"Not that bad!?! He devoured your soul and tried to kill your friends."
"Still, it wasn't his fault."
"What do you mean?"
"Nothing. Just some stuff I saw when I was inside of him."
Manta was about to ask about it, when he suddenly heard someone knock on the door.
"Yoh-kun, Manta, dinner's ready." It was Lyserg.
"Sankyuu, Lyserg. We'll be down in a minute." Yoh stood up shakily, then smiled seeing his robes were on. "How did . . ." Yoh saw Manta's cheeks grow red, then he giggled. "Manta, did you . . . change me into these?"
"Well, I thought you'd sleep better if you were in your robes, so I . . ."
Yoh smiled, then hugged him. "Sankyuu, but I have a feeling I need to wear my clothes."
"Hai." Manta watched as Yoh quickly slipped out of his robes and into a dark blue sweater, and black denim jeans, only putting his headphones on his neck with his bear talon necklace. "Let's go."
"Aa, Yoh-san."
The two walked downstairs, then just as they were about to sit down to eat, the door was opened, then in walked a tall man with long silver hair with golden streaks.
Manta stared in horror. "Y. . . You!"
"Konban wa, Ototo."
The group jumped up, then Yoh turned to Angelic Manta. "Manta, who is this?"
"This . . . this is Yulin."
