Our heroes were desperately trying to figure out where they were. 

Rarity: We have no food, no water, no transportation, and it's super hot. How can we even find the Patch Village? 

(Y/N): Don't worry, Rarity, we'll think of something. Right now, we just need to figure out where we are. 

Nora: So, we need a sign, like a big ... billboard or- 

Pinkie: A big sign? 

Pinkie pointed to a sign that said, "Route 66." 

Ruby: Route 66? 

Sunset: I've heard of this one. It's a very famous highway, and one of the originals. It starts in Chicago, Illinois, and takes you straight through Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and finally stops at Santa Monica in California. A lot of tourists love riding down, to see the sights, eat at truck stops and diners, and well, just take in that fresh breeze. 

Weiss: Wow, Sunset, you know a lot about this. 

Sunset: (blushing) I've always wanted to go down Route 66, after I reformed myself. 

(Y/N): Okay, I promise you a road trip with the girls. 

Sunset: AWWW! Thanks, Babe! 

Sunset hugged and kissed you. 

Pyrrha: Well, that solves our location, now for some transportation. 

Ryu: Leave that to me, fellas. HERE WE GO TOKAGERO! 

Tokagero: This is something we were made to do! 

Ryu and Tokagero formed a giant thumb! 

Ryu: OVERSOUL: BIG THUMB! 

Blake: Uh ... 

Yang: And tell me Ryu, what have we solved?! NOT- HUH?! 

A trucker stopped. 

Trucker: You folks, need a ride? Hop on! 

On the road... 

You guys were riding down the route. 

(Y/N): A smooth breeze to the nearest city. 

AJ: You happy, Rarity? 

Rarity: There is something nice about the breeze in your hair. 

Ren: I'd call it luck that the truck was passing by. 

Ryu: THAT WASN'T LUCK! 

Horohoro: I think being able to land safely was the lucky part. Here were so many contestants and we haven't even seen the others. 

Ruby: Look on the bright side, Horo, if we landed in the mountains, it would have been worse. 

Horohoro: (sweatdrop) Yeah, definitely. 

Blake: Hey, look at Yoh. 

Yoh was on top of the truck, just enjoying the ride. 

(Y/N): Still as carefree as ever. 

Atem: He hasn't changed a single bit, even after meeting Hao. 

Yoh: Hey, Amidamaru, this isn't bad. 

Amidamaru: There's nothing but road and nature, plus, the sky is full of stars. There is beauty in it all. 

Much later... 

You all reached the next town, Yontafe Village. 

AJ: I found this brochure that says this place is filled with Native cultures. 

(Y/N): Great to hear! Finding out information should be easy! 

A couple of minutes pass ... 

No one knew a clue about the Patch Tribe. 

Rainbow: Ugh, not a single person knows about the Patch guys. 

Weiss: They don't really seem to talk about themselves. 

Twilight: Hmmm ... there's only one place we haven't looked! 

At the library... 

Librarian: Sorry, there is no such thing as the Patch Tribe. 

Twilight: BUT THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE! WE MET MEMBERS OF THE TRIBE! WE WERE TESTED BY THEIR STRONGEST WARRIORS! 

Librarian: Look, I know a lot about the tribe cultures. The Apache, Navajo, Papago, Dagota, Manda, and many more. As long as they exist, I know them. I'd say you might have been tricked by Silva, right? 

(Y/N): WAIT! YOU KNOW SILVA?! BUT HE'S ONE OF THEM! How can you not know about the Patch Tribe?! 

Fluttershy: Are they that secretive? 

Librarian: Wait, I think I remember something. This word appeared in the notes by the Seminoa. 

Medaka: Are they a Native Tribe? 

Librarian: Yes, they existed 500 years ago, and disappeared before the whites arrived. There aren't that many descendants from the tribe that are alive. They really talked about this word. 

He looked for the book as Twilight read it. 

Twilight: "The song of desolation appeared with the 182,621st full moon comet; they were called the messengers of great knowledge. They used the power of knowledge, flying over the sky above the plains, inviting all the earthly youth to a party, but none of them returned. Teh generation that carried our power were gone. The messenger was called Patch. Watch out or else, you will be controlled by the devil as well." 

Blake: Devil? 

Ren: Of course, the 182,621st full moon, it means the past 500 years, including the leap years. The Shaman Fight takes place every 500 years. It matches up with the time period of the desolation of the Seminoa Tribe. The devil is the Patch Tribe. 

Yoh: WHAT?! Ren, are you saying that the Patch Tribe are the devils?! 

Pinkie: By that logic, it would mean that Silva, Kalim, and the others killed the Seminoa! Like lambs to the slaughter! 

Ruby: Hey, do you know any of the other Seminoa who is alive? 

Librarian: Actually, yes. There is a girl who lives at the end of the street who is a descendant of the tribe. Her name is Lilirara. She might be able to help you. 

(Y/N): Right! 

Soon... 

Yoh yawned in exhaustion. 

Medaka: Yoh, this is no time to rest, we have work to do. 

Yoh: Ever since I got here, I haven't slept once. You guys were all sleeping in the back. 

Horohoro: That's known as jetlag. I'm used to it, unlike some people. 

Ren: Don't talk so big, moron. 

Horohoro: SAY THAT AGAIN, NEEDLE HEAD! 

Ren: I'LL SAY IT ONCE I SHOVE MY SPEAR UP YOUR ASS! 

You and Yang hit them both! 

(Y/N): Stop it with the dick measuring contest already! 

Yang: Yeah, not when I'm still here. 

???: Excuse me, are you folks, participating in the Shaman Fight? 

A beautiful woman appeared. 

Lilirara (Descendant of the Seminoa! She believes the Patch Tribe is evil! Voiced by Lauren Landa! (The voice of Sailor Neptune!)) 

(Y/N): We actually are. 

Ruby: Are you Lilirara? 

Lilirara: Yes, and I ask that you go home. I won't forgive those who participate in the Patch's activities. 

Rainbow: Hey, we're going to the Shaman Fight whether you like it or not, lady! What will you do if we don't? 

Lilirara: I'll kill you. 

Everyone: WHAT?! 

Rarity: Listen, we don't have to do this. Surely we can talk this out. I mean, you are a fine lady. Wait, how do you know we're in the Shaman Fight?

Lilirara: I'm the successor of the Seminoa Tribe's medicine women. 

Ren: That would mean that, you're a Shaman. 

Lilirara: You know about the Seminoa Tribe's hymn of Desolation, right? The lyrics there are not bullshit, so why would you still go? 

Yoh: You really expect us to believe of something we heard of once? 

(Y/N): Plus, I refuse to think of Silva as evil! He's a good man! 

Fluttershy: And Mr. Kalim is a very sweet and loving person. 

Ren: Personally, I won't forgive you if you get in my way of becoming the Shaman King. So put up your guard, bitch! 

(Y/N): Ren! Don't disrespect her! 

Lilirara: Pathetic. You're under the control of the Patch Trie, and yet you stil want to pursue your dreams? 

She got out a giant staff. 

Lilirara: Now, feel the pain of the Seminoa Tribe! 

She unleashed a plethora of freaky dolls! 

Sunset: DOLLS?! 

Blake: They look so wooden and- 

Ryu: THEY'RE COMING AT US! 

Ren: THIS IS NOTHING! 

Yang: YOU SAID IT REN! 

Yang and Ren attacked the dolls with ease! 

Ren: I won't even use an Oversoul on- AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH! 

Ren's leg came clean off! 

Everyone: REN! 

Lilirara: Get them. 

All of you felt like your innards were being pulled out, or your eyes were ripped from their socks, and worse! 

But- 

(Y/N): HEY! It's just an illusion! 

You realized it. 

Eveyrone was alright. 

AJ: WHAT THE FUCK?! THAT WAS TOO DAMN REAL! LADY! YOU'RE AS CRAZY AS A CACTUS IN A BOOT! 

Horohoro: It really felt like my arm was coming off! 

Lilirara: What you felt was the pain that the Seminoa warriors went through during the Shaman Fight. You live under the form of illusion of the pain they endured. The power of my tribe is found in the possibility that we can transmit an illusion into the mind of the adversary. 

Twilight: In other words, you ... you transmitted their memories into us. What happened, Lilirara, you have to tell us what you know! 

Lilirara: Are you sure? The longer one stays in contact, the more precise the illusion becomes. 

(Y/N): We want to see. Right, guys?

Ruby: Yeah, we have a right to know. 

Yoh: If this will clear everything up, we have to take this chance. 

Everyone else was in agreement. 

Lilirara: Very well. You're all very brave. Now, I'll show you the truth, 500 years ago. 

The Seminoa Spirits grabbed you all, and you guys were being transported to the past! 

(Y/N): What's going on, Lilirara? 

Lilirara: We are going to where the Seminoa Warriors were killed. At that time, they were notified by the Patch Tribe about the existence of the Shaman King. 

Pyrrha: I take it, you also participated? The Seminoa? 

Lilirara: Yes, we believed we obtained the power of the Great Spirit. So we had the confidence in rebuilding a perfect world. But we knew the real intentions of the Patch Tribe. To create a world for Shamans. 

(Y/N): Really?! Are you serious? 

Lilirara: Yes, the Patch Child said that one day, humans will destroy this world, so before that happens, we make it ours. The Shaman Fight is a selection process to pick out the most potential Shamans. 

(Y/N): NO! THAT CAN'T BE! Silva would never do something like that! 

Ryu: Yeah, how can a good guy like that do something so bad? 

Horohoro: And Kalim may not be the prettiest person, but ugly guys like him can have good hearts! 

Lilirara: You're all so naive. Let me ask you, what if these people were using you, that's why they taught you to use Oversoul? 

That's when you guys saw a Shaman that looked like Silva! 

(Y/N): NO FUCKING WAY! 

Yoh: IS THAT SILVA?! 

Sunset: NO! THAT CAN'T BE! Silva isn't old enough to look like he's 500! 

Nora: No, it does look like him. 

Seminoa: YOU BASTARD! You lied to us! What a joke, creating a Shaman World! 

Seminoa 2: If you want us to join you, forget it! 

They charged at him, and he manifested Spirit of Fire! 

Patch Warrior: Pathetic. 

(Y/N): THAT'S- 

Yoh: SPIRIT OF FIRE! 

The Seminoa were obliterated in one fell swoop! 

Back at the village... 

Lilirara: Now you see. His final words were, "I am the Shaman King, 18000 months from now, I will be revived once again." This is why you must leave. 

Ren: You guys saw that right? 

(Y/N): Definitely. 

Blake: There's no mistaking it. 

Sunset: That was definitely Spirit of Fire. 

Horohoro: BUT THAT'S CRAZY! THAT GUY WAS HAO! 

Pinkie: I guess Hao was a Patch before he died? OH! I see! Reincarnation! Maybe he was a Buddhist Native. 

AJ: Pinkie, those don't exist. 

Pinkie: You never know. 

Lilirara: Who is Hao? 

(Y/N): He's an evil Shaman! And he's entered the Shaman Fight! 

Ryu: Wait, maybe he was Hao's ancestor or something? 

(Y/N): No Ryu, that was the same Chi. That Patch Warrior, it was Hao! 

Lilirara: What?! 

Yoh: Lilirara, looks like we must go no matter what. We need to know the truth. 

Lilirara: I'm sorry, but I can't. 

(Y/N): WHY NOT?! 

Twilight: You know everything now! It's Hao's fault the Seminoa are gone! Not the Patch Tribe! We have to stop him! He's going to keep killing innocent lives unless he's stopped! 

Lilirara: If what you say is the truth, then I have nothing else to say. There will be two endings for you all. First, he kills you, the second, is you become his slaves, and follow his orders. I can't help you anymore. Please understand, I was born for this reason. 

Twilight: But- 

Lilirara: You can't understand. I am the inheritor of the Seminoa, I never had the right ot dream. I live only to perpetuate the memory of our tribe. Since the day I was initiated, I live without stopping these scenes of past carnage. 

Horohoro: ARE YOU DONE?! 

Twilight: Horohoro, you- 

Horohoro: TWILIGHT! OUT OF THE WAY! 

He got out his snowboard! 

Twilight: You can't- 

Horohoro: I SAID OUT OF THE WAY! 

Kororo was trying to calm him down. 

(Y/N): Dude! Even Kororo is worried! 

Horohoro: HOW DO YOU THINK SHE WOULD FEEL?! I WANT TO BE SHAMAN KING FOR HER AND ALL OF HER PEOPLE! LISTEN HERE! DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH THE KOPPOKURU HAVE SUFFERED?! THE CONDITIONS THAT THEY MUST ENDURE?! THAT'S WHY I SWORE I WOULD BECOME SHAMAN KING AND CREATE ALL THE BUTTERBUR FIELDS FOR THEM TO SURVIVE! I WON'T LET YOU MAKE THEM SUFFER ANYMORE! 

Lilirara: Wh-What?! 

Horohoro: I said- 

She began to snicker, and then- 

Lilirara: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! 

She broke into laughter! 

(Y/N): Uh, are you- 

Lilirara: ARE YOU SERIOUS?! YOU WANT TO PLANT BUTTERBUR FIELDS?! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! 

Rainbow: HEY! STOP LAUGHING! HIS DREAM'S NOT FUNNY! HE'S DOING THIS FOR HIS BEST FRIEND, AND HER PEOPLE! YOU CAN'T JUST- 

Lilirara: (gasping for air) I'm sorry. Really, I never laughed this hard before. 

She finally caught her breath. 

Lilirara: Horohoro, I'm sorry, it's just that, you really shocked me. 

She put on a smile, it was very warm. 

(Y/N): Wow, you're really cute when you sile. 

Lilirara: (blushing) Thanks. 

Horohoro: Look, if you think it's ridiculous- 

Lilirara: No, it's actually wonderful. Your fields will be magnificent and begin to flourish in nature. Sometimes happiness is an accumulation of small things. 

Ryu: You said it, Cutie. Sometimes, the smallest of dreams like ours can be some of the best. 

Lilirara: You are not prisoners of the past, all of you have strength that I don't have. 

Sunset: We've dealt with pain, Lilirara. And we don't let it hold us down. 

Lilirara: It's the power to chase the future, and believe in your dreams. Being united like this, you are all very strong. You can rest at my house for the day. Tomorrow, I will tell you everything I know about the Patch. 

Team (Y/N): YEAH! 

And so ... 

Lilirara let you all rest at her place, and she gave you the info you needed, setting on the road again. 

You also told her to take care of herself, and she gave you a kiss on the cheek. 

(Y/N): (blushing hard) Well, see you. 

Lilirara: Best of luck, everyone. 

Soon... 

(Y/N): Okay, thanks to Lilirara, we have a map to get to the Patch Village! You all are ready? 

Team (Y/N): Yep! You bet Boss! Let's get going then! 

(Y/N): Right now, we'll be heading to Diringo City, it's about 200 kilometers from here at the foot of Mt. Lucky. Over there was the village of the Seminoa about 500 years ago. 

Yoh: Sounds like a plan. 

???: Excuse me. 

You all turned to see a young man with green hair. 

Lyserg Diethal (A Shaman who comes from England! He is searching for Hao as payback for killing his parents! He's very skilled at divination! With his Spirit Partner, Morphea, he uses his pendulum as a homing attack! Voiced by Bella Hudson (The original voice of Blaze the Cat!)) 

Rainbow: Uh, who the hell are you? 

Lyserg: Oh, where are my manners? My name is Lyserg Diethal, I'm 14 years old, and I'm good at dowsing. I'm a Shaman from England who came to participate in the tournament. This is my Spirit Partner, Morphea. 

A little fairy appeared with him. 

Morphea (Lyserg's Spirit Partner! She helps with his homing pendulum abilities! Has no voice actor, so she doesn't talk!) 

Lyserg: It's a pleasure to meet you. 

Yoh: Nice to meet you, Lyserg. 

Pinkie: Hi there! 

Fluttershy: He seems very nice. 

Rainbow: WHOA! How can we trust him? 

Yang: Yeah, he could be one of Hao's men! 

Ren: Yeah, something is fishy about this guy. 

Ryu: HE'S A GUY?! 

Lyserg: I can show you, if you want. 

Lyserg was about to drop his pants. 

Everyone: NO! WE BELIEVE YOU! 

Lyserg: Very well then. 

Sunset: How did you find us Lyserg? 

Lyserg: I used a dowsing guide. 

Horohoro: What's dowsing? 

Twilight: That's when you capture magnetic waves. He uses a pendulum to find water or minerals. 

Lyserg: Yes, others use it to find missing people or cure them. They say the object held by the guide has to have a special fluid that helps with the search. 

Lyserg: Yes, but I use Morphea to form an Oversoul. 

Rarity: Well, I must say, Darling, your spirit partner is very adorable! Hello Morphea. 

Morphea smiled. 

(Y/N): So, you didn't meat Lilirara then to find us? 

Lyserg: No, I have no clue who this Lilirara is. 

Horohoro: I still don't trust him. Let's go. 

Lyserg: NO WAIT! I might not look strong, but I've got a lot of skills. I'm pretty smart, and I have lots of money too. But since I don't know much about what you're up to, I thought we could work together.  

(Y/N): That depends. How strong are you? 

Lyserg: Oh, maybe you would like to see my skills. I'm sure I can beat those three. 

Yang, Rainbow and Horohoro got annoyed. 

Yang: YOU WANT TO TEST THAT, SQUIRT?! 

Lyserg threw off his coat. 

Lyserg: You'll see. 

His pendulum was moving with Morphea directing it. 

Lyserg: I'll prove myself worthy!
