Now, Chapter 2, Tuesday - Trial and Error!
-----------------------------------------------------------
Tuesday morning.
Yagami Hikari slept peacefully, but unknowing to her, Taichi had gone out and bought a copy of Dance Dance Revolution for the PlayStation, and hooked it up. For the last few hours since he has been up, he'd been practicing for Saturday, in attempt to amaze Sora. Stepping on the pad, he chose random... and pressing again, careful to not hit the down bottom, so to stay on Standard level. He pressed the X Button on the top left of the pad, only to end up with...
"PARANOiA!?!??!?!?!" he just couldn't believe his luck...
The music started....
READY... GO!
Taichi sweated big time. The notes kept coming up... his soft pad was failing him. He could never get a Perfect or Great, just Almosts, Goods, or Boos. It came faster now... Luckily he wasn't playing in an arcade, or he would've been screwed.
"W-What the..." he stammered. Soon came a tidal wave of Boos.. until he fell down. A fence appeared from the left, and the word "FAILED" appeared on the screen. He sweatdropped. "Last... time... I... pick... random..." he stammered, with a loss of breath. Soon, he could hear something moving in Hikari's room. In haste, he unhooked the dance mat, and took out the copy of DDR from the disc tray, and dashed into his room, hiding them in his closet. Then he remembered something. I forgot the PlayStation!!! He ran out and saw Hikari coming out of her room. He made a mad dash to the television, quickly unhook the wires and plug, and made another dash to his room, successfully hiding it in his closet along with the dance pad. Once he came out...
"Taichi? Where's Mom and Dad?"
"Business meeting out in England... Won't be back for a month."
"I see..." Hikari went and locked herself up in the bathroom, freshening herself up for school, when the doorbell rang. Taichi answered the door, opening to find a orange-haired girl.
"Hi Sora." Taichi greeted.
"Hi, my Taichi." Sora replied.
"Since when was I yours?"
"Since when we became boyfriend and girlfriend."
"Right. I remember now. Come on in." Sora entered and Taichi shut the door behind her. At that moment, Hikari came out of the bathroom.
"Deja vu." she muttered, before saying: "Hi Sora."
"Good Morning, Kari."
"I figured out who that kid was."
"Who!?" both Taichi and Sora asked.
"It was Takeru."
"Takeru!?!?" Hikari went on to tell them about what happened yesterday...
*FLASHBACK*
Takeru had just beaten Daisuke royally at the Arcade. Both he and Hikari left, but HIkari buried him with questions.
"Takeru! Were you at the Arcade yesterday? Were you!?" she started to act like she was choking him.
"Y-Yeah..."
"Were you playing this game?"
"Y-Yeah..."
"Were you the one who got the high combo yesterday?"
"Y-Yeah..."
"How did you get so good so fast?"
"I played when I went to Tokyo... They had it there long before Odaiba."
"Is that so..."
"Uh-huh."
"Say Takeru... can you teach me how to be better?" She put on those puppy-dog eyes of hers... The ones any person couldn't resist.
"Why do you always do that... I can't say no now..." he said, sarcastically.
"Yay!" She said, putting her arms around his neck. He blushed, but soon the red turned more blood red... She was tightening her grip.
"Hey Hikari, do you mind..." he said, exasperated.
"Oh, sorry Takeru."
"Let's go... Lessons after school Wednesday. Meet me at my house."
"Sure. Bye."
*END FLASHBACK*
"So that's it..." Taichi said.
"That kinda reminds me..." said Sora. "Ken and Miyako wanted to come also."
"Cool," said Taichi. "But what's not cool is, that we're gonna be late. C'mon, I'll drive again."
They both left too his car, Taichi carrying his car keys out the door once again.
At school, Hikari met up with Takeru at their lockers, which happened to be right next to each other.
"Hi Takeru." She greeted.
"Hey Hikari." he answered back.
"Lessons Wednesday, right?"
"Yeah... everyday until Saturday, got that?"
"Yup...'
"Let's go, before the bell rings."
"Ok."
They both left for class, their minds on the lessons tomorrow. Takeru would be the instructor, Hikari the pupil. The day went by very fast... Taichi drove Sora home, while Takeru and Hikari were walking to the Yagami apartment to work on homework, being closely followed by Daisuke.
At the Takenouchi apartment...
When Taichi and Sora arrived, they were welcomed by a familiar face.
"MIMI!!!" both of them shouted in surprised as a pink haired girl stood before them.
"Long time no see, guys!"
"Glad to see you've ditched the hat," Taichi joked.
"Haha, very funny Tai."
"Let's go in." Sora suggested, as they all went in and sat on teh couch
"Be right back... I'll call Matt over... you two girls catch up on what you missed." said Taichi as he got up and headed towards the deserted kitchen. He pulled out a cell phone and dialed a number. He waited as the dial tone rung several times, until someone picked up.
"Yamato here, what's up?"
"Hey Matt, it's Tai."
"Oh hey dude, what's up?"
"I'm over at Sora's. Come over now."
"Why?"
"Well Ms. Tachikawa's here."
"Who?"
"Mimi you idiot."
"MIMI!? She's finally here?"
"Yeah. Come on over."
"Sweet... I'm there!" He hung up. Taichi ended the call, and slipped the phone back into his pocket, and returned to the couch where the two girls were.
"Matt should be coming over soon." he told them both. Soon enough, the doorbell rang. "Dang, that fast?" Taichi muttered as Sora got the door, and let in a tall blonde in a black outfit.
"Hey everybody. Especially you, Mimi." the tall blonde, who was Yamato, said.
"Hey Matt...." Mimi said, enticingly. Yamato blushed, Taichi and Sora rolled their eyes.
"Hey!" Taichi said, trying to get everyone's attention. "Hey, I thought we should go to the Arcade today, to try our luck at the new game... What do you say?"
"Good idea, Tai." Yamato replied.
"Let's go then." Taichi said as they all went out the door and headed off to the Arcade. When they got there, surprisingly enough there was no one using the machine.
"I think I'll go first," Sora said. She put in a few tokens, and picked a song. It was La Senorita by Captain T. The music started, and the word READY appeared on the screen...
GO!
Sitting in the corner, with her coffee cup.
Reading the newspaper, not looking up.
She smiles as she finds something funny there
The sunlight, shining in her hair
When she leaves, you want to follow, her anywhere
Her dress is too tight, but you can't let her see you stare
And she's a, hot one, a halepena.
Ooh la Senorita
You never, get close enough,
To la Senorita
At this point, Sora was doing okay, but this is Standard level, after all.
You know she has a mind, she has an attitude,
And she likes her space, and her solitude.
She'll tease you, or please you, if she's feeling good,
Or burn you, like you knew she would.
When she smiles, It's like the sun shin-ing on your face,
Pulling and stretching, her leather and lace.
And she's a
Hot one, a halepena
Ooh la Senorita
In Baha, California
Ooh la Senorita
Ooh la Senorita
Ole
She finished with a good score, and was quite pleased with herself. Mimi wanted to go next, and she picked a random song... Look To The Sky, by System S.F. featuring Anna.
S-O-T-A
Feeling excited
Knowing those who can find you
On your telephone
And there's never no answer
Said you love me
Kiss me, we were in heaven
Say 'I'm sorry'
Love you, want you forever
Mimi was actually doing pretty good at this point, however, it was a 3-foot song, after all.
Every night I look at the sky
Call your name and wonder why
Every night I look at the sky
Maybe miss you, won't you come back
She tripped and her head on the monitor at the last bit. Yamato was holding her and fanning her, until he realized it was his turn. He chose a random song, and it was...
B4U by Naoki.
Lets get it on, don't stop us now.
We step up on the scene, we came to get down
Check the moves you know they can't be dissed,
Ain't too many that can float like this.
We humbling, comin at ya,
And the rhythm is gonna get cha.
Need I, should I not say no more
Tell me what the deal, yo check my flow!
Jump, jump, jump, DDR,
Yo! Everybody come compete with DDR
Jam, jam, jam, DDR,
Everybody just get jiggy.
Yamato was pretty good... After all, he also went with Takeru to Tokyo.
Could it be that you wanna be more like me,
No shame, I bring pain for the year 2g.
Now we - gonna turn this party out,
Put your hands in the air move em all around.
Can you feel the beat, down in your soul,
Don't fight the difference just let it go.
4, 3, 2, 1, lets count it out,
Wanna see you move, let me hear that sound!!!
Jam, jam, jam, DDR,
Yo! Everybody come compete with DDR
Jam, jam, jam, DDR,
Everybody dance, let's get down
Be-Be-Be-Be for you.
Yo! Everybody come compete with DDR
Jam, jam, jam, DDR,
Everybody dance, let's get down
The song finished, and everyone clapped... He reached a 90+ combo on Standard level... (A/N Yes that is possible... I got a 100+ combo on it once, with the same difficulty). Taichi reinserted some tokens and it was his turn... He chose a random song and it was...
Captain Jack Grandale Remix by Captain Jack. His jaw dropped and everyone else just laughed.
forward, march
ejo, Captain Jack (ejo Captain Jack)
bring me back to the railroad track (bring me back to the railroad track)
give me a gun in my hand, (give me a gun in my hand,)
I want to be a shooting man (I want to be a shooting man)
left, right, left (left, right, left)
the military step, (the military step,)
the airforce rap, (the airforce rap,)
the seventeen is the best (the seventeen is the best)
go... left, go right, go pick up the step, go left, go right, go left
go... left, go right, go pick up the step, go left, go right, go left
And Taichi never got past that point. He tripped over his own feet and smacked headfirst into the monitor. He missed enough steps to get his dance meter and to allow him to fail. Everyone just laughed at Taichi's misfortune.
