Nick : Sup , Im trying my best on this . So .. I accept all flames/compliments . I convert them into help . ;;

Disclaimer : I do not own any of the Shaman King characters , only my own characters .

Chapter One : Start !

Nick was in the forest , beads of sweats dripped from his forehead . He had been training for the shaman tournament for one week without stop . He had not eaten , drunk or slept in 7 days . He was getting tired , tired of all this training , when he was not even sure if the tournament was going to continue . Nonetheless .. he continued to train , either he trained , or he lose his chance to become the Shaman King . " Saito ! Into Tenshi ! Into Yasha ! " . His spirit combined into his dagger , Tenshi and his other dagger , Yasha . The double medium , he had mastered it . He formed a oversized pair of daggers , one glowing blue and one glowing a bright red . He reduced them to a normal size of a normal dagger , and stared at the tree . Focusing , he felt the wind blow , and that was when he struck . "Tenchi Blade!" . He sped forward , smoke coming fom the path he had rushed from , he cut through three tree's at once , and stopped . He heard the creaking of a door opening , his fiancee , Hailey , walked out , wearing a cute white shirt with a heart in the middle , and denim jeans . She had long brown hair , that flowed in the wind whenever it blowed . Large black eyes . She walked towards Nick , and gave him a can of Coca-cola . " Nick.. Shouldnt you take a rest?" . "No thanks , Hailey . Thanks for the cola " . He chuckled , and let the fizzy drink pass through his gullet . Nick was not very tall , not too short . About 2 cm lower than Yoh . He had black eyes , and chocolate brown hair that was dyed . He turned back to the tree to examine the marks he had made . ".. Not that sharp . " . He stared at the double daggers in his hand , and let them transform back into theyre original state . They were called Tenshi and Yasha after Angel and Demon . The dagger Tenshi , was a slighty longer than average dagger , and had sapphires embedded into it . Yasha was a short dagger , they had rubies embedded in them , the shape of the devil's eyes . His spirit , Saito , was a unusual thief that had been slain by a shaman in his life . His real name was Ceryni , but he did not like it , so he changed it .

" Nick , its enough . You look like your'e going to faint .. " . Saito said , a hint of concern in his voice . " Yes that's enough , Nick . " . A voice echoed through the forest . A boy , with black hair , black eyes , a long black shirt and baggy denim cargo's walked out of the shadows , smilling . His spirit , Zephyr , a spirit of a alchemist . Zephyr smiled warmly at Saito , as the boy , who was Nick's best friend , walked over . " Yo ! How ya doin with your trainin' ? " . " Fine , Daniel . " Daniel smiled , and looked over at Zephyr . " Zephyr ! Oversoul into Rapier , into magic potion ! " . A sphere of light covered all of them , and finally disappeared , Daniel stood , a Scythe in his hand . It glowed a brilliant emerald . "My training has been going well too . Watch this . " . Daniel closed his eyes and swinged his Scythe , it released a wave of lightning currents , that smashed down a huge portion of the trees . " Yay !" . Daniel's girlfriend , Alecia , walked out of the forest , smiling . Hailey skipped over , and started to chat with Alecia , as Nick and Daniel started theyre own conversation . " .. So you think theyre still going to continue the tournament?". Nick asked . " Not sure , hopefully they will . But no matter what , I will protect Alecia ... Hao ... Hao .. he was misunderstood or insane .. " . " Well same with Hailey . And , Hao I guess started with good intentions , but ran off the path halfway through ." " Hm." They chuckled , as they formed theyre oversouls and started to spar . Hailey and Alecia continued chatting and the day passed by quickly . The day ended as they sat in Nick and Hailey's little wooden house thing .Nick ate his sushi , smiling . " Dang , Hailey , you sure cook great ! " . "Sankyuu" . " Yeah .. " . Daniel smiled as he slurped his udon , and finished off the soup , before standing , smilling , " Im going out for a moment .. " . , and he left . Nick finished eating and followed after him . He slid the door open , to find Daniel staring to the stars , thinking deeply . " What'cha thinkin bout ? " . " .. What if .. What if we get killed by Hao ? " . " I have this feeling Hao is dead . Its that boy , Yoh im worrieed about . " . " Nah , Hes good . The two girls piled up on the door , listening intently . " Well , lets continue this later when the girls aren't listening . " "Sure . " . They both laughed as they opened the door to find two annoyed girls , which just made them laugh even more .
