Sven was at the shrine like many other poeple that day. He had a stall set up at a shrine to sell some of his wursts. He was one of the last people to be sold out though due to his food not being 'traditional' like the other food at the shrine. That and he had no idea on the Japanese religion. He was catholic after all which for him meant no lines to wait.

To Sven lines like this were the bane of his existence, he hated them that he often went out of his way to avoid them. If that meant being disrespectful to those that worked at the shrine then that was fine by him.

After he finished packing up his stall he decided he may as well see what was left. It was at this point that he saw a skeletal hand. [i]Who was decorating this place. I mean isn't that a little out of place?[/i] Sven thought to himself. Then he turned around to look at something else. It was another skeletal hand he started to walk towards it seeing it go behind the shrine. Once there though he found himself tripped by a tree root.

When Sven came too he found himself being hurled into the ground and once he hit the ground his head rolled right off his shoulders and rolled away infront of a girl with silver hair and piercing blue eyes. His body a few feet away just laid limp on the ground. After about a minute it started to twitch again and then a blue flame seemed to come out of the neck with a burst. It wasn't hot at all though and was the same size that his head was.

Sven looked up at the silver haired girl. "Well this is a headache isn't it?" Sven said spouting one of his terrible puns. His body meanwhile got up and after turning in a circle started to walk towards the head. Once close enough the body picked up the head. But didn't return it to the neck. "It has been way too long since I felt this light headed." Sven added with yet another pun about being without a head.

The main reason for the jokes though was because most people that saw him without his head often panicked, sometimes there was screaming, other times cursing. A few times people soiled themselves. He just found that cracking lame jokes tended to help calm them down a bit and focus on something else.
