Switched! Ch.3
Yoh: What! There's more!
Amidamaru: I thought this story's dead!
Ren: Of course it should continue! I just arrived!
Manta: (sighs) Here we go.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yoh: REN! Ren it's you! (Surprised)
Manta: You died too?
Ren: Of course I died! Otherwise I wouldn't be here would I?
Amidamaru: Bason, your skills really improved!
Bason: As yours, Amidamaru.
Mosuke coughed a little.
Amidamaru: (quickly) Oh yes! This is Mosuke, my best friend.
Bason: Best friend?
Everyone stared as Bason turned from a warrior to a chibi in seconds.
Bason: And I thought I was your best friend! (Cries)
Ren: (annoyed) Oh get a hold of yourself!
As Amidamaru comforted his friend, the conversation turned to Ren.
Yoh: So, Ren, how was it that you died?
Ren: Ha! Such a stupid question! I died nobly of course!
Bason: (still depressed) He died in a football field.
(Kim: What the heck!)
Yoh, Manta, and Mosuke laughed hysterically.
Yoh: A-A football field!
Mosuke: (gasp) Was it the quarterback! (gasp)
Manta: Or did you get crushed?
The three bursted into more hysterical laughter while Ren blushed in embarrassment. Amidamaru even laughed a little.
Amidamaru: So that's it? You were crushed?
Bason: (sighs) No. When the football landed in his arms, naturally the other players began to tackle, but, sadly his heart gave way.
Yoh: A…
Mosuke: Heart…
Amidamaru: Attack?
Manta: I thought you weren't afraid of anything! Sorry, but a heart attack!
Amidamaru joined in with the others while Ren angrily crossed his arms.
Ren: Ha ha. Very funny. How did you two die anyways?
Yoh: I ate too many cheeseburgers.
Manta: There was a conspiracy in my dad's corporation. I was poisoned.
Ren: That's it huh? (annoyed)
Both ghosts: (nods) Yup.
Ren rushed at Yoh shaking him with every word.
Ren: You think CHEESEBURGERS are better than my death!
Yoh: Relax Ren.
Bason: (finally cheers up) So why are you all staying here?
Amidamaru: We're waiting for the comet to signal the start of the tournament.
(Van: I was really tempted to type 'the end of the world'.)
Bason: I see.
Ren: Bason and I have trained perfectly hard. We're going to win this tournament and I-, I mean Bason, will become Shaman King.
Yoh: (claps hands) Boy, Ren, you still haven't changed!
Manta: Yoh and Amidamaru have been training to be in synch with each other. They've gone to a level I've never seen before!
Ren: Mm. And what about you, Manta? You and your shaman have gone beyond spirit unity, right?
Manta and Mosuke sweatdropped.
Ren: Right?
Manta: Um, Sure? (nervous)
Mosuke: Actually we can't decide what weapon is best fit for us.
Ren: What!
Manta and Mosuke dropped heads at the sound of Ren's cackle.
Manta: Ok; we get it, we get it!
Ren: You better hurry quick. The tournament's starting after all.
Manta: We will.
Yoh: well anyway, Ren, good luck !
Ren: Hm. You should wish yourself that! You need it!
Bason: Amidamaru, you have been my best friend and rival. Good luck to you and your guardian ghost. And you too Mosuke. Best wishes to you.
As Bason got up and began to leave, a huge light appeared. The vast comet flew across the sky.
Bason: It begins.
Amidamaru: Yes, the tournament has begun.
Mosuke: And…Now what do we do?
Bason: (Sweatdrop) Good question.
Amidamaru: Um, I guess we, er…
3 arrows stab the shamans. Each one states how they don't know what to do.
Yoh: And there you have it!
Manta: Really, Yoh what do we do next?
Yoh: Wait and see!
Ren: Wait for what?
Yoh : Something's bound to happen sooner or later!
After a few hours of waiting, Yoh broke down.
Yoh: (whining) Okay, now I don't know what to do…
To be continued…
------------------------------------------------
Yoh: Ever wondered how Amidamaru and I met?
Amidamaru: Yoh! We've already agreed not to discuss the topic.
Yoh: No we didn't. Anyway, it was such a great time, it has to be destiny!
Amidamaru: Now look here, Yoh! I never agreed to this partnership in the first place!
Yoh: Yeah you did! When Anna tortured me!
Amidamaru: It was in a moment of hurry! Look, I wanted a strong ghost and instead I got you!
Yoh: Tune in next time on Switched!
