Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or Shaman King

This disclaimer thing is going to start to get annoying, I just know it.

This chapter is dedicated to FuujinNoKitsune for being the first person to put my story on their story alert!

Now, this story has no known path and is subject to change on the whim of its creator. That being said I will not bring some spoilers: Naruto will be the only shaman; the ghosts Naruto will use will probably only be from the Narutoverse; while no one else will see ghosts, they will see see a physical change, that change may or may not include: color, size, shape, weight, and whatever other thing I wish it to be.

Now, on with the show!

It was a bright and sunny morning in the village of Konohagakure. The sun was shining, the leaves were green, and the yells of one chūnin filled the air. It was just another day in the life of one chūnin instructor, Iruka Umino.

"Come back here you brats!" Yelled Iruka with anger in his voice and a burning rage in his eyes.

"This is all your fault!"

"My fault? If I remember correctly, you were the one who wanted to do this!

"Yeah, well I wasn't the one who filled sensei's seat with tacks!"

"True, but you are the one who put laxatives in his coffee!"

"This is neither the time nor the place to be discussing this!"

"Quiet Shikamaru!"

"Shikamaru's right. If we get caught, Iruka-sensei will try to kill us! Besides, we only need to outlast him."

"What do you mean 'outlast' him?"

Shikamaru Nara is a 7 year old ninja-in-training from the Nara clan. He keeps his black hair in a spiky ponytail all the time and has dark brown eyes. He's often too lazy to do more than the absolute minimum to be kept from flunking the academy. While his lazy exterior shows an unmotivated child, inside he has the potential to be one of the most brilliant people in the world.

Sigh. "The laxatives still haven't taken effect yet. And when they do, he'll have to abandon the chase if he doesn't want to make a mess in public. However, this means that we're just postponing the inevitable. Tomorrow, we are all doomed. Why did I let you guys talk me into this troublesome situation?" Shikamaru stated with a bored tone and still running like his life depended on it.

"It's cause you knew that it was gonna be fun watching Iruka-sensei squeal like a pig when he sat down on the tacks!"

"Naruto, because of you, we are gonna have to keep running until Iruka-sensei gets the runs!"

Naruto Uzumaki is a 7 year old ninja-in-training. He has blond spiky hair and incredibly blue eyes. He is short for his age, and is often annoyed when people mention it. He is a lonely child who wishes that people would see him as a person instead of viewing him as some sort of plague. He is the third jinchūriki of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox, otherwise known as the Kyūbi no Yōko.

"Come on Shikamaru! It's my birthday today, can't this be my present?" Not once did Naruto lose his shit-eating grin while explaining this.

"Naruto you are the only idiot I know, who would want to prank a ninja as their birthday present!"

"Shut up Kiba! You know you would have done the same thing if you were in my shoes!" Yelled Naruto with disdain at having been used as a scapegoat.

Kiba Inuzuka is a 7 year old ninja-in-training from the Inuzuka clan, who often lets his short temper and impulsiveness get the better of him. He has messy brown hair, sharp black eyes with vertical slit-like pupils, pronounced canine teeth, and nails that he can change into claws. He also has the distinct red fang markings of the Inuzuka clan on his cheeks. While he is very proud, he does not let his pride interfere with the relationships he has with his friends.

"No, I wouldn't have! I would have actually gotten away with what we just did! I would've had Akamaru put the laxative in Iruka-sensei's coffee!" Yelled Kiba with annoyance at having to keep running.

"Wait a minute! You had Akamaru with you this whole time and you only just tell me?" Surprise turns to anger as Naruto points a finger at the little white dog on top of Kiba's head. "If I had known that I would've had Akamaru act as lookout while I set up a trip wire for Iruka-sensei to step on and have paint fall on him!"

Akamaru is Kiba's animal partner of the Inuzuka clan as well as his best friend and companion.

"Arf!" Barks the small dog, while sniffing his nose.

"What did he say Kiba?" Asked Shikamaru as he knew that the dog had a better nose than any of them and could probably track Iruka better than any of them.

"He said to look behind us."

"Look behind us?" Asks Naruto with confusion.

Looking behind them, they see Iruka moving very quickly with an angry expression on his face.

"We got to hide!" Yelled Naruto with fear in his voice, knowing very well that Iruka knew that he was the mastermind behind the prank against him in the morning. He could only imagine the punishment he would get Iruka caught up with them.

"How?" Asks Kiba with panic, as he knows that whatever punishment Naruto gets they would all have to share it.

"We could hide at my place until Iruka-sensei gets the runs."

"Chōji, why didn't you mention that before?" Yells Kiba, while his eye's dilate in the response to the extra adrenaline he now has in his system.

Chōji Akamichi is a 7 year old ninja-in-training from the Akamichi clan. He is very kind and polite, but when food or his weight is mentioned he gets easily agitated. His kind and caring personality make it difficult for him to spar with others as he knows that if he isn't careful, he could seriously hurt one of his peers.

"Sorry Kiba, but I really didn't think we would be chased by Iruka-sensei so quickly. I know that my parents won't like the fact that helped prank Iruka-sensei, but they'll understand, hopefully." Chōji apologized while running as fast as he could.

"Sorry Chōji, but it's our safest bet right now. Okay guys we're gonna need a distraction if we want to get through this alive. Naruto, you have anything left in your pack?" Asked Shikamaru with a calculating gaze.

"Uh, yeah. I think I have a smoke-bomb somewhere around here. Why?" Asked Naruto with obvious confusion.

"Okay I got a plan, and if we do this right we might just get out of this alive." stated Shikamaru with uncharacteristic seriousness.

"When I get my hands on those brats they'll wish they had never met me!" Yelled an almost psychotic Iruka.

Normally, Iruka is a patient and calm chūnin, but when people act like idiots he is easily frustrated. Case in point, the prank that Naruto and his friends pulled on him today was more than enough to make him go into an animalistic rage. If he had been thinking clearly, he might have been impressed by the fact that Naruto, Kiba, Shikamaru, and Chōji were able to prank him even though he was a trained ninja.

'Where did those brats go? They couldn't have gotten far, and I know for a fact that they aren't trained enough to be able to outrun me. So, they must be hiding.' Iruka thought to himself as he landed on a branch near a dense treeline in a park.

Some movement to his left alerted him that there was something hiding in the bushes. He pulled out some ninja-wire as he prepared to tie up his disobedient students.

'Wait for it, wait for it, wait foNOW!' Jumping into the bush he didn't expect to fall into a see a white blur pass by him. 'Wait, white? Akamaru? TRAP!' Unfortunately for Iruka, he was right. The moment he fell through the bush he landed on a wire which dropped smoke-bombs, which obscured his sense of sight.

"Run for it, guys!" Iruka could hear the boys all trying to escape, but because he was still shocked about the trap, he was unable to apprehend what happened at that moment. However, just as he was understood what happened, he felt a horribly painful feelings near his rectum.

'What the hell? Crap, what did I eat? DAMN IT, I'll just have to punish them tomorrow!' With this last thought Iruka shunshined as fast as he could to his apartment.

"I can't believe that worked!" Exclaimed Naruto as he lay on his back wheezing from exertion.

"Of course it worked. Shikamaru thought of it." Chōji explained as a matter of fact. "Now, lets go to my house in case Iruka-sensei had help with him."

"Uhh, you guys go on ahead without me." Naruto said nervously.

"Don't you wanna come with us?" Kiba asked with obvious confusion.

"Nah, I don't wanna impose, besides if I want to be the Hokage I have to start training." Naruto exclaimed with vigor.

"Are you sure? My mom can make some really good food. Even ramen." Chōji explained while drooling slightly.

"I'm sure, so don't worry about me. Even if Iruka-sensei had some help I can hide from anyone!" Naruto explained as if it was fact.

"If you're sure Naruto." Shikamaru stated with a curious look in his eye.

"Alright then, you don't know what your missing Naruto!" Chōji yelled as he started running towards his house.

"Ah! Wait up Chōji! I don't know where your house is!" Kiba yelled as he started running after Chōji so as not to lose him and get lost.

"Okay then, see ya Naruto." Shikamaru stated as he started walking after Chōji and Kiba, "Man, it's way too troublesome to have to run after those two." He starts to walk slowly after them making it look like a chore to even walk.

Once Naruto was sure they have left his vicinity, he started to slowly walk in the other direction. The reason that he declined to follow Chōji, Kiba, and Shikamaru was that he didn't know how Chōji's parents would react to him. He wasn't blind. He could see how most of the adults always looked at him with scorn. To him it was almost like they wished he would just drop dead.

"Guess, I really will go train." With a sigh Naruto heads towards a training ground he once found behind the Aburame clan compound.

"Hmm, quite a strange world. It's similar to my own world, but all of its military are ninjas who use an internal power source to fight and defend their village or country when they are called upon." Asaha Douji was quite interested in this world he came upon. He didn't particularly care about the ninjas, but it was the energy they used that interested him. Every time he passed by a ninja he could feel the power inside them. It wasn't furyoku, he was sure of that, but he could feel that the power inside the ninjas resonated with that of the planets. It was very interesting for him.

"Still, while they don't have furyoku, there are many spirits around here." That was something that Hao could not understand. The ninja's here were surrounded by the spirits of the dead but not one of them had ever developed the ability to use ghosts or even the ability to see them.

"This doesn't make any sense, this many spirits would have caused at least one human to develop spiritual awareness, yet I see that none of these humans have any furyoku. And these ghosts, most of these are all seirei-type spirits, but I can tell that most of these ghosts are not even over 300 years old, so how is this even possible?" That was another thing that Hao couldn't understand, most spirits became a seirei-type after about 500 years of being bound to the earth, yet these spirits quickly evolved from ghost-types into seirei-types incredibly quickly. It was possible that the energy that the ninjas had could act as a catalyst and make the evolution quicker, but from what he could tell, all of the energy that the ninjas had could only be used by the living.

"This is going to give me a headache." Hao quickly realized that if he kept thinking about it, it would cause him to obsess over it until he did something drastic just to see what would happen.

"Hmm, now what do we have here?" Hao felt something along the edge of his spiritual senses. He could feel an incredibly powerful spirit. This one was quite easily a kami-type spirit. "Now where are you?" He could feel it moving along the edge of his senses until it stopped.

"Ah so that's where your at," Hao quickly moved toward the spirit he felt. He was once again confused. Kami-type spirits were usually incredibly large and were composed of a multitude of spirits, yet he didn't see it and he could only, at the most, feel four spirits from it.

"Just another impossibility from this strange world." Hao was quickly coming to understand that what he knew about spirits and shamans would not necessarily work here. At least until he understood the difference between his world and this one, beyond the obvious differences.

"Now, where are you spirit?" Hao could feel he was very close to the spirit, yet all he saw was a blond haired boy in an orange shirt and blue shorts throwing little wooden stars at a post. Focusing on the child, he could tell something was different with him. He didn't really realize it, but once he did, he was once again questioning his intelligence. The kami-type spirit was coming from the little boy.

The little boy had the soul of a kami-type spirit.

That just didn't happen. Hao could easily see the ages of a spirit now that he was Shaman King and he could tell that the child was no older than seven years old, yet he gave off the presence of a kami-type spirit!

"This world is going to give me a migraine with all the impossible things I've seen today." Studying the child more closely he realized he made a mistake. The child himself wasn't creating the presence, it was a spirit inside him!

"I've had it with this world's impossible things!" Hao yelled with anger. He was used to knowing things at a glance, and yet here stood a living impossibility! The boy had a spirit inside his own soul! He knew that had to be impossible, yet here he stood. He just couldn't understand it. When ever he saw something similar, the stronger spirit would always eat the weaker spirit no matter what. Yet here was the spirit of a seven year old boy holding back a kami-type spirit!

Taking a deep breath, Hao started to calm himself. He needed to analyze the child before he started jumping to conclusions. With his powers he started an in depth analyzes of the boy's soul. What he found, pissed him off.

Inside the boy, were two more souls. Yet, he could tell something was different. He didn't know how but he could tell that the two souls inside were put there soon after the boy was born. He could also tell that they weren't actually souls. They were more like imprints of two souls. He could tell that once they did what they were supposed to do, the imprints would rejoin the souls and transfer along the memories of what happened.

Now, that he learned what the two imprints were, he started looking into the kami-type spirit. He could tell it was powerful, immensely so, but he could also tell that something was wrong with it. First of all, it was a single spirit. That itself was supposed to be impossible, but apparently it wasn't. Another was that the spirit seemed to have been torn apart. He could see that along the edges of its soul, that it had been ripped from something else.

In other words, either the soul was part of a much stronger soul, or someone ripped something from this soul. He really couldn't be sure, but if it was the former, then that soul was quite possibly, stronger than one of the elemental spirits. If it was the latter, then it might be able to match the elemental spirits on a good day.

"Now, what to do? I could just leave this alone, since this is not my world, but... this is too interesting to pass up." With that Hao pulled himself into existence right in front of Naruto, while also stopping time around them.

'AAAAAAAAAAHHH!" Yelled Naruto, with fear when he saw somebody just pop out of nowhere right in front of him with an incredibly disturbing grin. Once he was able to calm his racing heart, he realized that the person in front of him was an incredibly pretty girl.

"Wow, lady your really pretty!" Yelled Naruto, with a small blush.

"What did you say?" Asked Hao, with a growing tick mark on his head while lifting restraining his fist from hitting the small child.

"I said that your really pretty, lady!" Once again, Naruto did not notice the danger he was in.

"I will have you know that I am a man." Explained Hao, while trying not to hurt the child.

"Nope, not possible," Said Naruto, "only girls have long hair like you do."

Hao's twitching eye would warn most people that knew him to run, but since Naruto didn't know him he was going to be in for some pain. Lifting a gauntlet covered gift, Hao smacked it on top of Naruto's head causing him to fall to the ground holding his head.

"Ow! Why did you do that for?" Asked Naruto, while holding his head and having tears on the corner of his eyes.

"That's to teach you that girls are not the only people who have long hair. Have you never seen a man with long hair" Asked Hao once he got his aggression out on Naruto skull.

"Well, I have, but those people were all blind and I thought it was a thing that ran in their family. But, it really doesn't matter, cause you still look like a girl!" Naruto yelled as he pointed his finger at Hao's face.

"Really? My hair makes me look like a girl? If that's true lets see how you like it." With a single finger, Hao pointed at Naruto's head and flash! Naruto's hair was now long and silky.

"What did you do to my hair!" Yelled Naruto with panic once he noticed that his spiky locks were long and silky and fell all over his head.

"Well if my hair makes me look like a girl, I decided that yours should too." Hao said with smirk.

"I'm sorry! Please change it back!" Naruto never grovelled, but he really did love his spiky hair, and if getting them back meant that he had to beg then he would.

"Hmm, nope, sorry!" The smile on Hao's face was not apologetic at all.

"Now, whats your name?" Hao knew that getting the child's trust would work best with what he wanted.

"Why should I tell you? You turn my hair girly!" Yelled Naruto with anger and a red face.

"Well, if you tell me your name I might just turn your hair back." Hao knew that he wouldn't, but Naruto didn't know that

"Fine. I'm Naruto Uzumaki! Future Hokage!" The yelling was really not necessary, but Naruto wanted to be sure that Hao heard him.

"Well Naruto Uzumaki, I'm Hao, the Shaman King." Hao, knew that Naruto wouldn't know what it was, but it had King in it and he was pretty sure that Naruto knew what that was.

"Never heard of a Shaman King before. It's probably nothing against the Hokage!" Naruto really shouldn't have just dismissed the Shaman King like that, but he didn't know any better.

"Well if you looked around you, you would know that a Shaman King is far more powerful than your Hokage."

"Huh? What the hell?" Naruto asked with wonder. All around him nothing moved. The leaves in the trees weren't moving, the breeze that was blowing was gone, and the grass was bent almost like a wind had blown through. Looking up, Naruto could see that the birds that were flying were frozen in mid flap. He couldn't understand what he was seeing.

"See? Can your 'Hokage' do this?" Hao knew he had all of Naruto's attention now. After all, how often do you see someone freeze time?

"How did you do that? Can you teach me to do that?" Naruto's reaction was not what Hao was expecting. He was expecting that Naruto would be in awe of what he did, yet here he was asking to be trained by him.

"Hmm, I might be able to, but your gonna have to do something for me." Hao knew exactly what he was going to do.

"Sure! Just name it and its done!" Naruto would regret those words.

"Now, what I want you to do is...die," Hao's pleasant smile did nothing to help ease Naruto's distress once he realized what Hao said.

"AH! I don't want to die!" Naruto yelled as he turn tail to run, yet Hao was right in front of him again.

"I think you misunderstood what I was trying to say. I want you to die, but I can also bring you back to life. My powers are not available to you, unless you die."

"You can really bring people back to life?" Once again Naruto's awe overrode his self-preservation instincts.

"Nope! Now die." Without giving Naruto a choice, he placed his hand on top of Naruto's head and killed him.

"Good, now that he's dead I can give him furyoku. Hmm, should I give him a lot or a little?" Hao, was trying to decide how much furyoku to give Naruto, when he felt a presence behind him.

"Well, hello! I really didn't expect you to come onto this plane of existence for just one boy." Hao, explained to the being that stood in front of him.

This being wore a white cloak that covered its body, it had shaggy white hair with two red horns poking through near the front. It had a purple face with eyes that were pure black. In its mouth was a knife it held between its teeth. On one of its hands was covered in prayer beads. This was the Shinigami of this world and its ruler.

"Do you know what you have just done, Asaha Douji?" The Shinigami asked, without moving its mouth.

"I have no idea what you are talking about, Shinigami." Hao really didn't know what he was talking about.

"You have just killed the chosen hero of this world. If he is left dead, then this world will be destroyed by the will of a madman. With him alive this world at least has some chance of surviving." The Shinigami once again didn't move, but Hao could tell that it was beyond just anger. It was thoroughly pissed off.

"Well, then its a good thing I wasn't going to leave him dead. I was just going to give him the ability to see spirits and use them like a shaman from my world." Hao knew that he was playing with fire, in this world he wasn't invincible, but he could at least stall the Shinigami until he was back in his own world.

"Hmm, your 'shaman's' have the ability to attack ones soul correct? If I allow this, you must pass on all of your knowledge of shamanism onto him. I don't care if you do it in person, through a book, or give dump all of the information into his brain, just do it." With that the Shinigami left a confounded Hao.

"Well, that was easier than I thought." Hao was honestly surprised that it had ended without any fighting. "Oh well, now what to do about Naruto's furyoku?" Hao really didn't know what to do. If he gave Naruto a ton of furyoku, then he would just overwhelm everyone of his opponents, but if he gave him too little then it might restrict his potential.

"Well, I'll just give him an average amount, that will just make him work harder." And so, Hao gave Naruto's soul an average amount of furyoku. Afterward he put Naruto's soul back into his body and revived him.

I have to say this chapter came out better than I thought it would have. I also didn't expect to have done a second chapter so quickly. So review, and tell me what you thought!

Also, give me some ideas for spirits and mediums from the narutoverse.
