Bandit: Alright, I see it now. You're right about English being used in Japan. I'll use those songs next chapter… I wrote this chapter before looking at your review.
-----------------------------------------------
It is another Monday.
Yagami Hikari woke up, very drowsily. All night she was dreaming up who the person was at the arcade, and how he got so talented at it so fast. I wonder how he did it... I mean, it only appeared a few days ago... she thought. As she dragged herself out of the room, she saw Sora sitting on the couch, watching TV.
"Sora... what are you doing here...?" asked Hikari, groggily.
"Oh, hi Kari. Tai asked me to come over."
"Yeah, okay... Hurry and freshen up, I want to talk."
"But isn't there school today..."
"They're touching up renovations at all schools. It's been delayed for a few hours."
"No.. I wanted to see Takeru..."
"What was that?"
"Oh, nothing." Hikari started to blush.
"It was about TK, wasn't it..." Sora said, sarcastically, that look in her eyes.
"NO IT WASN'T!" HIkari retorted, and slammed herself in the bathroom. She changed, took a shower, brushed her teeth. etc. (A/N Not necessarily in that order) Once she came out, the orange-haired girl was now sitting next to a brown-haired boy with very wild hair... none other than Hikari's brother Taichi.
"Hey Kari, we have to talk." Taichi said. "And we better fill in Sora also."
"Yeah, I still don't know what's going on." said Sora.
"Yeah well yesterday Taichi took me to the arcade..." Hikari started.
"To check out that new game, Dance Dance Revolution." Taichi continued.
"When we entered, we saw this boy."
"He was dancing up a storm."
"Everybody was watching him."
"And he never noticed. He kept dancing along, with a nearly perfect score. It was the Difficult level for Dub I Dub, which I think is about six or seven feet."
"Feet?" Sora asked, interrupting Taichi and Hikari.
"They use feet to show the tempo, and the difficulty of the song. The more feet, the more difficult it is." Taichi answered.
"Ah, I see." said Sora.
"Anyways... I could've sworn when he glanced back he started to run. But he covered the bottom part of his face, so we couldn't figure out who he was." Hikari continued.
"I could've sworn I saw him glance at Kari." Taichi added. "I guess that's it. We can try it Saturday, in the back room. All of us... TK, Dai, Matt and Mimi will be there too. I pulled a few strings with the manager, and he set up a extra machine in the back."
"Mimi!?!?!?" both Sora and Hikari said, with much surprise.
"Geez Sora, I thought your mom told you that Mimi would be staying with you for the rest of the school year." Taichi put up a sarcastic, yet annoyed face."
"No she didn't..."
"Guess you weren't paying attention. She's coming tomorrow..."
"What!?!?!?"
"Anyways... it's time for school. I'll drive us all." said Tai, picking up his bag and car keys. Hikari locked up, and they left for school.
After a boring, uneventful ride, Hikari rushed towards the school gates, hoping to meet Takeru. What she had done, however, was run over him, knocking them both to the ground.
"Ouch... Hikari... watch where you're going... It's bad enough my feet hurt..."
"Oh.. sorry Takeru." Hikari apologized. "Wait, why do your feet hurt?" she asked, with alot of worry in her voice.
"I've been pla-running around alot, lately."
"Ah I see. Take a break once in a while, Takeru. Need a hand?" Hikari asked as she held out a hand to Takeru, who was still on the ground. Through that small conversation Hikari had gotten up. He took her hand and helped himself up.
"Thanks."
"No problem, Takeru." They both started to walk into the halls of school, thought it was a little different with the construction.
"Hey Hikari, have you heard about that new game in the arcades?"
"Yeah... I'm not really good at it though... Let's just say I messed up alot..."
"Eh, everyone messes up at everything their first time..."
"Wow Takeru, you're sounding like you're a veteran at that game." At that time Takeru shifted his gaze to out the window, and started to whistle a little.
"Uh.. it's like that in most games."
"Right..." Hmmm... I wonder... she thought. She reached for Takeru's fisherman hat and grabbed it off his head. The state and style of his hair caught her by surprise.
"Takeru, were you at the arcade yesterday?" asked a shocked Hikari. Nervously, Takeru replied:
"N-No, I was at home all weekend." He reached for his fisherman hat but Hikari stretched her arm so it was out of his reach. The bell rang, and they both walked off to their respective classes, Hikari now wearing Takeru's fisherman hat.
The rest of the day was pretty uneventful.
Now, Hikari, Takeru and Daisuke were walking home from school. They were all talking about that new game...
"Hey TR, I bet I can probably beat you in the new game."
"Hey Dai, let's see on Saturday when we're all going with Tai, Sora, Matt and Mimi.
"Mimi's coming!?!?"
"Whoops, we forgot to tell you, I guess."
"Takeru, how did you know Mimi was coming?" Hikari asked.
"Tai told Matt, and Matt told me. Matt was pretty excited when he heard Mimi was coming."
"Hey TJ, come on, me and you, Odaiba Arcade, right now!"
"Fine Dai, but trust me... you're gonna lose."
"You're on!" Daisuke yelled as he and Takeru ran off to the arcade, Hikari trying to follow them.
At the arcade...
They were lucky to have found that no one was playing it. They both inserted some tokens and got ready to play.
"So, TE, which song, which difficulty?"
"Let's try... Drop the Bomb, Difficult level."
"You're on!"
They selected the song and difficulty, and they started to dance. The word READY flashed on the screen, and it quickly changed to GO!
Sorry but could I have the music louder?
Yeah drop the bomb! Just drop the bomb!
Getting sick and tired of the fossil-like system,
now or never it's the time to resist 'em,
it's easy to blast them all away,
pull a trigger push a button say ADIOS today,
don't get me wrong I'm a pacifist,
the mind can do more than the fist.
Takeru was dancing a storm, while Daisuke was merely trying to keep up.
Explosives are not what it takes
(you know, terrorists always make these mistakes,)
what we gotta do is build momentum,
if you need the right tools invent 'em,
ride the wave of time come feel the rhythm,
the march to the future has begun get with'em,
the brain is the generator of almighty power
either do it now or your master plan goes sour.
Yeah! are you ready to take that fall?
It's up to you to make that call to drop the bomb!
Yeah drop the bomb! Just drop the bomb! Let me see that bomb!
Just...
Learn from the sunken mu Atlantis
and from the head of the beheaded male-praying mantis,
we've all gotta make room for whats to come,
what we gotta do is build momentum,
if you need th right tool invent' em,
ride the wave of time come feel the rhythm,
the march to the future has begun get with'em,
the brain is the generator of almighty power
either do it now or your master plan goes sour.
Takeru was getting very good, his score almost double Daisuke's...
Yeah! Are you ready to take that fall?
It's up to you to make that call...
(And if it don't work then make the real thing wipe it out)
So drop the bomb!
Yeah drop the bomb! Just drop the bomb! Let me see that bomb!
That bomb!
That bomb!
That bomb!
Song number 1, finished. Scores were Takeru nearly 2 million, Daisuke a little past 1 million.
"Wow Takeru, you were great!" shouted Hikari.
"It's not over, TR..." muttered Daisuke. "My choice now... Boom Boom Dollar, Difficult!"
"Bring it on.. Dai..."
READY... GO!
Boom boom boom boom
Money funny in dollar
It's a thriller,
Darling, you're a wonderful lover, baby
Hai ai ai ai
July, December
Always deep inside of mind, tell me
Wai ai ai ai
You keep a pocketful of green green dollars
I love you but it's the time
You're very hard, you sound like a young fella
Take me over night
Boom boom boom boom
Shoot you like a bamber
Boom boom boom boom
That you are, now
Boom boom boom boom
Pushing all the buttons
More time
Boom boom boom boom
Shai ai ai ai
Boom boom boom boom
Why ai ai ai
Boom boom boom boom
Pushing all the buttons
More time
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!
End score for song, Takeru around 1 million, Daisuke around 1.1 million.
"You got lucky, Dai..." said Takeru. "But it's not over yet! I'll choose... Dub I Dub, Difficult!" Dub I Dub Difficult? Hikari thought.
"I'll beat you now, TR!"
"Bring it on..."
Dub-I-Dub-I-Dub-I-Dup-Bup-Bup
Dub-I-Dub-I-Dub-I-Yeah
Dub-I-Dub-I-Dub-I-Dup-Bup-Bup
I don't need your love anymore
I don't need you here by my side
no more, no more, no
And when I feel your love deep inside
I will forget, oh yeah
Takeru was dancing up another storm... This seemed oddly familiar to Hikari...
So don't you dare come knockin' on my door
when you need someone to hold.
Cause every door and window is closed.
I can live, live without your love.
Dub-I-Dub-I-Dub-I-Dup-Bup-Bup
Dub-I-Dub-I-Dub-I-Yeah
Dub-I-Dub-I-Dub-I-Dup-Bup-Bup
I don't need your love
Dub-I-Dub-I-Dub-I-Dup-Bup-Bup
Dub-I-Dub-I-Dub-I-Yeah
Dub-I-Dub-I-Dub-I-Dup-Bup-Bup
I don't need your love
Love is cold, yeah
I don't need
Your love is cold, yeah
I don't need
Daisuke couldn't keep up. His dance meter dropped low. Takeru was keeping them from failing now.
Dub-I-Dub-I-Dub-I-Dup-Bup-Bup
Dub-I-Dub-I-Dub-I-Yeah
Dub-I-Dub-I-Dub-I-Dup-Bup-Bup
I don't need your love, anymore.
No.
Takeru finished with a 100+ combo, while Daisuke ended with a small point total. An A for that song appeared opposed to Daisuke's E. Overall, Takeru finished with a A, and Daisuke finished with a B. All Daisuke could do was drop his jaw. Hikari however, gasped at sudden realization. That was Takeru!?

Well, there's chapter 1. It looks like Takeru's our mysterious master... R+R plz!
