Inverse Matrix

Chapter 2: First Day On Duty

A/N: Here is the second chapter. Thank you for reading if you haven't run away screaming from the horribleness of this fic yet. Anyway, it will be their first day on the job and Neku and Beat does some terrorizing with some OCs. Don't worry though, Neku and Beat and the actual TWEWY characters will still be the main characters. I hope you enjoy it!

o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o

"So Phones, what you wanna do now?" Beat asked after the meeting. Neku was introduced as the new GM.

According to Kitanji, being a Game Master allowed you to have power all the lower rank reapers. Neku smirked. He thought this was going to be fun, especially with Beat as his partner.

"Let's go learn all about reapers. Tomorrow is the first day, so we should get ready for it," Neku said. Beat just nodded and followed Neku into their shared room.

It turns out that they could fly with the reaper wings and that they have access to all level keypins. Also, it seems that according to the books, Neku has a noise form of a humanoid grizzly bear and that Beat is a humanoid scorpion. They were also the rarest, only being able to come from the composer himself.

Also, they can cross to the RG occasionally but then their powers will diminish, leaving only very little of it. To the living, they would be considered psychics. They were just about to finish reading when they saw a small book with an unusual noise symbol on it. It was black and it seemed to be floating on the book.

"Hey Neku, what's that yo?" Beat asked. Neku shrugged and picked up the book.

"Taboo Noise Refinery…interesting. It's a manual for noises, Beat. Wanna try 'em?" Neku asked, tossing the book to the blond reaper.

"Sure thing Phones," Beat said, skimming over the book before throwing back the book to Neku.

"Okay so it says here we need to get one hundred noises created by emotions, a rare pin…hmm, we also need a caster or the holder of the refinery…" Neku trailed off, pondering.

"You do it, Phones. I probably won't know how to do it. Too complicated to and since you're better at psychs than me, you'd be able to do it" Beat suggested.

Neku nodded slowly. "Okay then, if you say so. Want to get started now? I'd assume that they want a scarletite and shadow matter pin for it and I have a couple so I we are all set for those."

"For those noise…" Beat asked.

"We'll figure something out," Neku said flying out of the pad. Beat followed close behind.

"Neku! Wait up, yo!" Beat hollered through the air.

"Sorry, Beat I just got excited. Anyway, why don't we split up on a division? That way, we get done a lot faster," Neku asked once they slowed down. They were currently looking for a perfect spot for the symbol.

"Sure. I don't know how to do it though," Beat scratched his head.

"Don't worry about it. Just scan the people and make sure to put bad thoughts in their brains," Neku explained.

"Hey, Neku how 'bout that street back there?" Beat exclaimed, pointing to the Udagawa Back Streets.

"It's perfect, Beat. There are many negative emotions there. I should know…" Neku quietly.

Line break

They got to scramble crossing, where there is always the large volume of Shibuya converges. Neku and Beat separate some ways from each other, tossing the pin slightly into the air.

The moment it touched their hands, their senses became alive, especially their minds. They heard people's thoughts and dreams and used those to extract the noises they needed.

Soon, they have collected the required amount and Neku tossed 'First Gear' into the air when Beat was close to him. They disappeared, leaving only a faint light.

They appeared back to Udagawa and Neku immediately set out to make the taboo noises, forming the right markings on the ground, making the carved ground slightly aglow. Beat drew in all the noise in the area and the ground that had the symbol sucked it in, along with the possession noises. The cracks on the ground disappeared, leaving only the taboo refinery. Neku put the shadow matter pin on the side so he will be able to control the taboo noises.

"Is it done yet, yo?" Beat asked.

"Of course," Neku smirked, raising his hands and hovered it near the symbol. Black noise symbols started to pour out of it and disperse throughout Shibuya.

"We're all set for tomorrow, Beat! Let's go visit Hanekoma?" Neku asked and Beat complied. Neku smiled quickly before tossing 'first gear' into the air once again.

The next day…

"Showtime," Neku said as he gave all the reaper stations and blocks.

Line break

"Three players 'relocated' sir," one of the field reapers said.

"Thanks for letting me know," Neku said as he passed by the reaper. Neku and Beat were currently strolling around checking up on the streets and making sure everything was fine.

He heard a fight going on and eager to see what was going on, he sent out more noise and they both ran to the scene.

There were two boys fighting taboo noises and there was too many coming in although they had no difficulty defeating them. The first had a gun that blasts off noises and the ground sometimes sucks up the noises. The other turns into different animals and mercilessly attacks the noises.

"They look powerful, yo," Beat whispered. Neku nodded and sent the noises he created to the duo.

"Richard there's too many of them," the boy shouted out loud.

The boy, who was in the other section replied, "Nick! Hang in there!" the boy Richard said. The gun became a vacuum and sucked in small noises and the partners seemed to become healed.

"Beat did you see that?! Those taboo noises were great. We should use those more often," Neku said before closing the refinery.

"Yeah Phones! We should sic more of those babies to them more." Beat replied.

"Maybe next time…" Neku thought out loud.

Line break

"Holy crap man! We're still alive!" Richard said as he twirled his boyfriend around.

"Rich! Put me down!" Nick shrieked.

"Sorry. I just got excited. Can you believe those noises?! I didn't even see those last week. Good thing that Neku guy defeated the game master," Richard said. They were in the game last week as well and they looked up at the guy that had managed to keep them alive.

"What do we do now? We got no missions to do and my gun is fizzled out…" Richard said, waving the seemingly harmless toy gun around.

"Let's go shopping for more stuff? I think we'll still be allowed to walk around for a bit right?" Nick suggested.

"Yeah alright then. Let's go," Richard said, walking hand in hand along with his lover.

Line break

"Those kids will ruin our fun," Neku huffed before blasting the ground with his pins. "Don't worry about Phones, we'll beat those punks," he said, doing tricks on his skateboard. They were in the pad again doing nothing and just waiting for the day to be over.

"When is the day going to be over?" Beat asked. "Um whenever we say it is," Neku shrugged.

"Well, I'm tired. Day Closed," Beat said, feeling the power around Shibuya wash away the consciousness of the Players.

A/N: Yeah, so these OCs will not last long, because you know…they'll die or live. We can't have Neku and Beat destroyed right? Anwyay, the Richard has the gun which can suck up the noises and the gun also blasts them into pieces. Literally. Nicholas or Nick has the medallion that lets him change into any noise animal but he keeps his brain. Well, that's it. I'm out if ideas. Please give me any suggestions. This fic is pretty open and plot less so it's open for any ideas you can give me.
