Magic Shaman Knight: Spirits vs Mashins.
CHAPTER 2 "Where are we?"
Hikaru, Umi and Fuu felt flying through yet another portal.
And then they landed... in some weird place.
"What..? But... but this is NOT Cephiro..!"
"It sure isn't – just look at the signs – they're in ENGLISH!"
"Well... Clef never said Cephirians don't speak English... didn't he?"
"Negative..."
"So WHERE are we? Let's ask somebody!"
The girls saw a lot of people walking around – and those looked mostly like Americans...
It looked like the girls were somehow teleported to USA instead of Cephiro..!
It was good they have learned English for 3 years already – so they were able to speak quite well, especially Fuu.
"Excuse me, what is this place?"
"Huh? What do you mean? It's Dobie Village! What ELSE could it be?"
"Dobie Village..? Weird name... I never heard about it."
"Me neither..."
"Any suggestions what to do?"
"Let's walk around and we'll find out... I hope."
The girls split and each went her own way.
Hikaru soon saw a big group eating in a café.
"Hi, guys! Mind if I sit nearby?"
"No, you're welcome."
"What's your name?"
"I'm Hikaru Shidou. Nice to meet you!"
"Oh, so you are Japanese. I'm Yoh Asakura and I'm also from Japan."
"Len Tao, and this is my sister, Jun."
"I'm Rio and I'm in love!"
"Rio... My name is Horo-Horo but everybody call me Trey the Racer. Oh, this is MY sister, Pilika."
"Hi! I'm Morty!"
"Faust VIII, nice to meet you. And this is Eliza – my love."
"I'm Joco – and I'm the funniest guy you ever met!"
"You wanted to say DUMMIEST? I'm Anna Kyoyama, and Yoh's my future spouse."
"Anna..! Never mind. Hikaru, are you alone here?"
"No, I came with two friends, Umi and Fuu. I'll go find them."
"OK. We'll meet later."
Hikaru went to search for Umi and Fuu and she soon found them.
"Umi, Fuu, come. I'll introduce you to some nice guys."
"Oh, we met some guys too. Look, these cool guys call themselves the X-Laws. Aren't they cool?"
"Nice to meet you. I'm Marco, and these are Mina and Lyserg. The other X-Laws are together with our leader, Jeanne."
"Marco, do you know Yoh Asakura? I just met his group."
"Yoh Asakura? Yes, I know him. You better stay away from him..."
"Why? He seems to be a nice boy..."
"You'll find out later... X-Laws, we must go. Bye, girls. Be careful and beware of Zeke."
"Zeke? Who's that?"
But the X-Laws already left...
So Hikaru led her friends to Yoh's group.
"Miss Fuu, I'm in love! Will you marry me?"
Fuu blushed heavily while Rio was knocked on the head by Trey.
"Guys, we just met the X-Laws, and they spoke something weird. Like beware of YOU and some guy named Zeke... Could you please explain."
"The X-Laws... I wouldn't trust THEM. And I hope you won't meet Zeke any time around."
"So WHO is that Zeke?"
"The most powerful shaman who is obsessed with an idea of creating the world only for shamans. He's basically insane."
"He's WHAT? What is a shaman?"
"WHAT? You are here in Dobie Village – and you don't know what shaman is?"
"What so important about this place? I thought it's just a small country town."
"Dobie Village is no ordinary town – it's the place where the Great Shaman Tournament happens."
"Shaman Tournament? That's weird... WOW! Who's that?"
"That's Amidamaru, my guardian ghost. But you CAN see him!"
"Wait, they DID see Eliza – and she's also a spirit..!"
So the shamans introduced their guardians to the girls.
"So those X-Laws are also shamans, aren't they?"
"Yeah, and quite strong ones. But their desire to destroy Zeke at ANY cost bothers a lot."
"Yeah, Zeke... One strong person who wants to rule the entire world... How familiar..."
"Huh? What did you just say, Fuu?"
"Never mind..."
"So, girls. How did YOU get here?"
"We... we were teleported. I don't know why or how..."
"Yeah, we hoped to go to Cephiro – not some weird shaman tournament..."
"CEPHIRO? Where's that?"
"Cephiro is..."
Hikaru's speech was interrupted by screams from outside.
Everybody ran to look what it was.
