"I can't believe it... I'm finally a Shaman. I can finally say I'm a full Shaman, without any catches to it," a brand new Shaman, named Kesshou thought to herself, proudly. She stood outside the Shaman school, looking up into the sky, her jet black hair and dark purple bangs swaying magestically in the wind.
"I finally can control spirits, like the others can..." she thought again, gazing down at her ghost-like partner, Naiya, who was in his travelling state. He glanced up at her and smiled. "Great job on passing!" Naiya said enthusiastically, "You seem very determined! You'd make an excellent Shaman Queen." The spirit looked forward, "That is... if that's your goal, Kesshou-sama." Kesshou stared down at him, and then looked forward as well. "What is your goal...master?" Kesshou took a moment to look the question over, and then glanced down at Naiya, "My goal..." she took a long pause, "Is to beat the man I love in a Shaman fight." And with that, she looked up again, and began pacing forward.
Naiya was left behind, with a confused look on his face, and then raced after Kesshou. "Kesshou-sama... I don't believe I understand," the spirit asked politely, "Who is this man you love? Why would you want to beat him in a Shaman fight if you love him?" The girl stopped again, and closed her eyes. "The man I love... we will soon meet." And with that she began walking again. "We will... soon meet? Master? When will we meet this man?" The spirit asked again, trailing close behind his master. "Soon enough, Naiya, soon enough." She responded, eyes still closed. "How do you-" The spirit was cut off by a loud rumbling coming from infront of them. "Master!" Naiya turned to Kesshou, "What was that? Are you alright?" "I'm just fine, Naiya. And now we know where he is." She responded, letting a dark, determined look cross her face. "Let's go, Naiya."
"Oh, uh! Yes, master!" Naiya stuttered, quickly transforming to his full-bodied human form. He had long black hair, dyed red at the ends. He fixed the goggles on his forhead gently, and fixed his long black shirt. His deep orange eyes met with Kesshou's bright orange eyes. "Let's go, master." He agreed, wrapping his arms around her, "Hold on tight." And with that, he bolted forward at what seemed like the speed of light.
Kesshou squinted her eyes, and before she knew it, everything had stopped, and she found herself facing two Shamans and two spirits, with Naiya right beside her. She took a long look and the walked forward. "Ren." She said emotionlessly, stopping. One of the Shamans, Ren, turned to her, meeting his light yellow eyes with hers. He frowed. "What are you doing here, Kesshou?" He turned towards the other Shaman with a determined look, "You're interupting me."
Kesshou glared at him and then turned to the other Shaman, who looked like a young, innocent and scared girl. She and her spirit, who was about the same size as her, and looking just about as frightened, where huddled together, trying their best to avoid Ren and his spirit, Bason. The girl had straight brown hair which was parted into two pigtails on each side of her head. Her green eyes were tiny and frightened, as she clung to her spirit, which had two long, black elf ears, long blonde hair, and two big black demon wings. Kesshou glared and then looked back at Ren, who was wearing his normal sleeveless top and long black pants. His hair was still messy and spiked in the back. He hadn't changed a bit. Why did she love him?
Kesshou ran infront of the young girl and her spirit, with Naiya right behind her. She spread her arms out in a protective manner, facing Ren. "What do you think you're doing?" She asked, emotionlessly. Ren frowned. "I told you to stop interupting." Kesshou glared back, "Since when did I ever say I'd listen to you, Ren?" Ren gritted his teeth with annoyance. "I'm warning you, Kesshou..." he threatened. Naiya watched from beside Kesshou. "This can't be who she was talking about... could it?" he asked himself, "Well, whoever this creep is, he'll never get away with threatening my master!"
Naiya's expression darkened, as he rushed forward. "Naiya! Stop." Kesshou commanded. Naiya skided to a stop between Ren and Kesshou, glaring at Ren. "But master Kesshou... he threatened you." Kesshou paced forward until she was infront of Ren. "Just who do you think you are? Attacking an innocent girl like that!" Ren growled quietly, "You have no part in this. Leave, Kesshou... Or I'll have to get Bason to do it for you." "Don't you threaten me..." Kesshou warned, taking another step forward. Ren took a step back. "BASON!" he commanded, pointing forward at the two frightened girls, "You get rid of that weakling and her so called 'spirit'!" Bason rushed forward at them, passing Kesshou and Naiya. "Naiya! Don't let Bason get near them!" Kesshou commanded, looking back at Naiya. Naiya nodded quickly and chased after Bason.
Ren clutched to his staff, throwing it forward at Kesshou at an attempt to make her back up. Kesshou grabbed a hold of his staff, and pushed back. The two glared at eachother. "What's wrong with you?" Kesshou yelled. "Me?" Ren yelled back, "I'm not the one interupting other Shaman's battles!" "Pfft," Kesshou laughed pathetically, "At least I don't attack innocent people for no reason!" Ren growled.
Naiya sped up and found his way to Bason. He skided them both to a stop and aimed a punch to the spirit's head. Bason ducked and countered the attack with one of his own punches. Naiya's speed got the best of him, as he dodged the fist. The two found eachother in an even lock, and then began glaring and growling at eachother angerily.
Ren found all of his strength, and pushed as hard as he could, making Kesshou lose control and trip backwards. She fell to the ground and was immediatly pinned down from Ren. She tried to get up, but it was no use. His grip was too tight. "Get off!" She ordered, glaring up at him, with a slight rosy blush in her cheeks. "Argh... this is every girls dream to have with her crush... He has absolutly no clue though, does he. He must think I hate him... What's wrong with him anyway?" She thought to herself, giving up on escaping. She sighed and closed her eyes, as if she'd given up. "Fine." She hissed, "I'll leave." Ren glared down at her, "Well you can't now. You're already in a battle." He smirked at her evilly. Kesshou glared up at him, stunned. How will she escape now?
Naiya quickly glanced back at Kesshou and Ren, and immediatly his jaw dropped. "What're-! Wha!" Bason became intrested too, and looked over. Bason's jaw dropped too. "Wha'do they think they're doing!" He shreiked. The two spirits rushed over, and pulled their masters apart. "What do you think you're doing! I thought we were in a fight, master!" Naiya blushed, demanding an answer from her. "What?" Kesshou and Ren asked at the same time. A long pause followed. "N-... NO! D-don't get the w-wrong idea!" Kesshou blurted out finally, blushing. Ren immediatly followed along, blushing like mad. "Wh-what did you think? You idiots!" He whacked Bason in the head. "G-GO! You're not done yet! Get back to w-work!" Ren studdered angrilly. "Get them all!" His expression changed from embarassed to determined in a split second. Bason charged at Kesshou, tumbling into Naiya, who jumped infront of her.
The three of them went falling backwards. Kesshou jumped up. "Naiya!" Naiya followed her up and stood beside her. "Yes, master?" "I don't get it! How am I suppost to use your powers?" "I-" He was quickly cut off as Bason leaped up at him, tackling him over. "I-I don't know... Kesshou-sama!" He finally answered, through Bason's strangles. Kesshou just stood there, helpless. "I don't know what I can do then!" She thought to herself, worried. "I know!" I've gotta help those two girls!" She turned around and dashed towards them.
Ren skidded infront of her, just before she reached them. "Ren!" Kesshou growled, still blushing a bit. Ren held up his staff powerfully, aiming the weapon at Kesshou. "Y-you... wouldn't..." Kesshou tried to believe. "Oh I would." He assured her, "I told you to stay out of this!" Rens staff was immeadiatly sent flying as a familliar spirit came flying through protectively. It was the young girl's spirit. Kesshou sighed with relief as Ren glared around him angrily. "Don't forget who you're fighting." Came a soft, but determined voice.
The two Shamans looked behind Ren, to find the young girl. She was standing up, with a strong expression across her face. Her spirit returned to her side, holding Ren's staff. The spirit smirked cutely. "Heh." Kesshou laughed, "Looks like you're out-numbered... Ren." Ren glared back at her. "BASON. Help me out, here!" Bason jumped up and collided head-on into Kesshou. Kesshou went flying and slammed into the rough ground. "Ugh!" She moaned, using her every ounce of strength to get up, but it was no use. She fell back into the ground, eyes closed. "Kesshou-sama!" Naiya shrieked, blazing to her side. "Now, Bason!" Ren pointed towards the girl and her spirit, "Get me my staff!" Bason leaped forward at them.
Instead of tackling down a girl and a spirit, Bason crashed head on into a thick, hard, cold wall of ice. "What?" Ren took a step back. Bason examined the wall, confused. "You're not getting to hurt these innocent girls without a fight, dude." Came a deep voice from nearby. Before Ren knew it, he got struck with ice in the side of his leg, knocking him to the ground. "What is this!" He yelled. Bason rushed to his side. Out of the shadows came a tall, lanky figure. As the light struck him more and more, Ren could make out the main features of him. The boy had short, spiky blue hair, held up by a jet black headband. His eyes were shadowed out, and he had a long determined grin on his face. "I'm Horohoro... and I'm not gonna let you get away with hurting innocent people!" He said dramatically, bringing his eyes from the shadows.
Ren then noticed the two girls were now behind Horohoro. "How did he get them all the way there in that amount of time?" Ren thought, surprised. Naiya watched from a far. "He's almost as fast as me...!" He thought, shocked. Horohoro grinned again. "So... you up for it? A one-on-one battle? You and me? Right here and now?" Ren glared. He knew it wasn't between them, but something inside of him knew that this would be one heck of a battle. "... You got it then. Right here... Right now." Ren agreed, smirking evilly.
