Fandom High School

Yondaime sat at the front of the class, wearing a pirate costume, with a large bowl of candy for the students when they came in. Deadpool had said it was tradition.

Though, Deadpool had also been the one to force him into the pirate costume again….

“Since today is a holiday in this world, we’re going to take it mostly pretty easy. I’m just going to give you all a quick lesson on some of the ghosts and ghouls in Japan. Or at least the ones that are similar to what is in my world,” he explained and moved to sit on his desk. “And I’m also going to give you a brief lesson on the word ‘shi’. Which if you all have been paying attention know can mean the number four.”

Yondaime grabbed a handful of candy and started tossing random pieces at students. “So the word ‘shi’ has several meanings and traditionally when saying ‘four’ you use the word ‘yon. The reasoning behind this is that ‘shi’ can also mean death Even though the kanji to write ‘death’ and ‘four’ are very different, but that’s another lesson. Just like the number thirteen is bad luck here, in Japan and my world the number four is.” The irony that he was the fourth Hokage was not lost on him.

“Some building makers and hotels there even go so far as to not have a floor labeled as ‘four’, or hotel rooms with that number,” he shrugged and tossed some more candy.

Bribery was a wonderful thing.

“Now as far as ghosts go where I’m from and the Japanese culture, for the most part we don’t have a fear of dead people. In fact most people will have small shrines to family members who have departed in their homes, or will do yearly visits to the cemeteries to remember their death. There are of course a few spirits that are restless and cause trouble, but nothing overly bad, unless…” The blond paused for effect. “…Unless they become possessed by demons. There is a demon for just about everything in Japan. Dog demons, water demons, fox demons, cat demons, half demons, spider demons, tofu demons, frog demons, they’re all over the place.”

There was a flash of smoke behind Yondaime as a frog as tall as the room appeared. “Frog demons?” It chuckled in mock threat.

Yondaime just smirked. “Yes, frog demons Gamakichi,” he chuckled. “Everyone this is Gamakichi, one of a family of spirit frogs that has assisted me through the years. He’s not a demon, but he knows quite a bit about them and you all are free to talk to him and ask him questions.”
