As usual, from Ryan's POV.....
----------------------
DDRist Kingdom: south
We walked until we came upon a clearing.
"Hey look, some DDR machines."
Sure enough there was a 4th and a 5th mix, ready and waiting.
As we walked over, I got this strange feeling.
You know, the one that something isn't right.
"I've got a bad feeling about this...." I said.
"What do you mean?" Charmy asked.
"I sense some kind of disturbance...."
Before I could even finish my sentence, a huge cloud of smoke exploded into sight.
"Huh? Someone's emerging from the smoke...." I said.
It was a girl...wait 4 girls and the front one seemed to be the leader.
"Alice?" Emi said, "Alice it is you!"
Emi ran to greet her friend, but I grabbed onto her jacket and stopped her.
"What are you doing?" she asked.
"She's different, just look at her eyes. That's not the Alice you knew."
Alice started to laugh.
"Hahaha, your just as quick as G.U.N. said you were. While it is good to see you, Emi,
I'm afraid we must beat you and take your arrow chips."
"But why? Why did you join G.U.N.?" Emi asked.
"Let's just say they gave me the power I wanted. Now either battle me and lose, or just hand over your chips."
Emi didn't seem happy.
"Emi, you allright?" Rage asked.
".....Alice? You better get ready to eat those words, cause I'm gonna kick you sorry ass."
"HA, you have more spirit then I've given you, kid. Let it start."
Emi choose the battle on the 4th mix, as Alice wouldn't be too familiar with this one,
since she was only in 5th mix.
"There's something different about that machine..." I said.
Emi choose her signature song, 'Dynamite Rave'.
Alice just seemed confident and went about playing it.
As I was watching, I noticed an extra screen, with the number 2000 on each.
"What is that?" I thought.
Things didn't add up, and I knew something wasn't going to go well.
When the results screen showed up, Alice had managed 5 more Perfects than Emi.
Suddenly the side of the pad Emi was on was electrified and the number on her side fell to 1500.
"What the hell was that?" Rage shouted.
"Oh, I guess you didn't know about that. These are some of the new rules for the tournament. You see those screens, they represent your health points.
For every difference in perfects there are, the one with less loses that many times
100 in life points."
"Something Konamison happened to leave out." I murmurred.
Emi grabbed the rail to support herself.
"It's okay, let's go, it's your choice."
Alice scrolled through the songs and choose 'Hero(Happy Grandale Mix)'.
Emi managed to keep stride with Alice.
"You must be feeling tired after that electro shock. It must burn to keep that combo
going....Damn!" Alice shouted, losing her combo.
Emi tried her best but soon lost her combo as well.
When the results screen came up, Alice had 9 more Perfects than Emi.
"AHHHH!" Emi screamed as the life points were shocked out of her, dropping her to 600.
"Oh, I'm sorry, did that hurt?" Alice asked in an insincere tone.
"You'll pay for that." Rage said.
"Down boy, you'll get your chance."
Emi knew she had only one chance to try and beat her.
"I hope your ready Alice." Emi said, "because if you miss this, then you'll be dropped out."
Emi, if you haven't guessed, choose Drop Out.
Alice seemed to get it, but she slipped at the jump sections.
Emi nailed all of them, but lost concentration at the eight steps in the end section.
As the results came up, Alice couldn't beleive it.
"No, this is impossible, it can't be."
"I did it and so you 'Drop Out' you stupid bitch." Emi said before collapsing.
Emi had gotten 24 more perfects than Alice, who got the shock of a lifetime, as her
life points went from 2000 to 0.
"Emi, are you okay?" Rage asked, very worried about his girlfriend.
"I'll be fine (pant)...just need rest."
Alice just stood there in shock.
"No, this is inconceivable, I lost and now I'm gonna get kicked off the island."
I walked over to her.
"That's what you get for siding with G.U.N. Perhaps you can think over it back on the
main land."
Alice handed me Emi's arrow chips and walked off with her dance group, heading back towards the pier.
I walked over to Rage.
"Hey, these are Emi's. Make sure she gets them."
"Okay, thanks dude."
We had set up camp for the night and we're sitting around the fire.
"I can't beleive she'd side with G.U.N." Charmy said.
"It's like I said, they can corrupt anyone. This means we have to be extra careful."
"Ryan's right. If she's here from G.U.N., who knows who else has fallen under G.U.N. control." Sonic added.
"Anyone of our other friends could have ended up under their control, just like with
Alice." Johnny said.
"Well, *yawn* I'm gonna get my sleep. We need to be well rested for our next battle."
I said, heading towards my sleeping bag.
The others decided to retire for the night and we let the fire burn out naturally.
-----------------------------
The Next Morning
As usual, I was the last one to wake up.
Charmy woke me up as usual, shaking me violently.
"I'm up!" I said, jumping out of my sleeping bag, knocking over Charmy.
I stood up and helped Charmy up.
"Jeez, you sleep too much."
"Well, you shake me too much."
We just laughed and headed over to the others.
"About time you woke up." Sonic said.
I just ignored him and sat down.
"So, where to now?" I asked.
"Well, I heard a rumor that someone in pigtails is causing havoc a little further down the road." Emi said.
"When did you hear that?" Rage asked.
"Last night, after you all went to sleep, Alice came back. She told me someone who we
should challenge was causing trouble and we needed to free her from G.U.N.'s control
as well."
"Hmm, pigtails, sounds familiar....well, let's go see who this person is." I said.
We agreed on this, packed up our stuff, and moved on.
As we approached a dirt road, we noticed a DDR machine on the side of it.
"What's it doing here?" Charmy said, walking closer to it.
Suddenly, a guy wearing a suit jumped down and grabbed her.
"Hey, let go of her." I said.
"Don't move." he said, pulling a gun on her.
"Wait I know you, your Akira." Rage said.
"I must say it's good to see you again, Rage. Too bad it's not under better circumstances."
"What do you want?" I asked.
"Your arrow chips in exchange for Charmy's life." Akira demanded.
I wasn't too happy, but then realized something.
"Hey Rage," I whispered, "does Akira have a strong will?"
"No, he usually was bossed around by Charmy or Yuni."
"Good, let's hope this works."
I walked over to Akira and prayed this would work.
"You will let her go and give me your gun." I demanded.
"Ryan, what're you doing? He won't...." Charmy started to say as she was released and
I was handed to gun.
"Sonic here," I said, handing it to him, "Dismantle this nasty thing."
"With pleasure." Sonic said, reducing it to pieces in a few seconds.
Akira just stood there with that blank look of idiocy.
"Now, who put you up to this?" I asked.
"Yuni. She planned this."
"And where is she?"
"She is awaiting my return."
"Good, then head back to her."
Akira began to walk back to Yuni's location.
"Okay, guys. Let's follow him and then take care of Yuni."
We followed Akira back to where Yuni was hiding.
Figures, I thought, she made her base around a 4th mix Plus, her home mix.
"Well, where are the chips?" she demanded.
"I, uh, don't have them."
"What?! You don't have them?! I guess I'll just take yours then."
"No Yuni, don't. I want to stay."
I figured this would be a good as time as any to interupt their bickering.
"Not so fast Yuni!" I shouted, trying to sound heroic.
"You, I should've figured you'd be able to stop Akira."
"Time to pay." I said, "You tried to kill Charmy, I won't let that go. It's time to D.D.R."
"Fine, but you won't win."
I got first choice and choose a song I always AA, 'In The Heat Of The Night'.
"You won't win." I said.
"Whatever you say. Nothing can match the power G.U.N. possesses."
I managed to keep up my combo, even after the one hard part.
The same couldn't be said for Yuni.
When the result screen came up, I had 11 more perfects.
Yuni felt that difference in a huge hit to her life points, dropping her to 900.
"Ouch! That looked like it hurt." I said.
"Ugh, you'll pay for that."
Yuni choose '1,2,3,4,007' as our next song.
I had done this song many times, so I wasn't worried.
However, I messed up some how.
When the results came up, I felt the 8 perfect difference, my points dropping to 1200.
"Ouch, man, that hurt."
"Haha, nice try."
"That's it, time to take you down."
I choose one of my better songs 'Boom Boom Dollar K.O.G G3 Mix'.
My speed allowed me to keep the combos up and edge out over Yuni.
Yuni struggled to keep up and lost her combo many times.
When the results screen came up, Yuni felt the 35 perfect difference, resulting in a
lifepoint count of zero.
"Yeah, I won."
"No, how?"
"Just like we told Alice, all the power in the world is nothing without some kind of
strategy." Charmy said.
Yuni handed me the two arrow chips I had earned plus the rest that she had taken from
the others.
"What are these for?" I asked.
"To try and make up for what I did. I'm sorry and hopefully I can learn from this. Let's go Akira."
After Akira and Yuni had left, Rage spoke up.
"Wow, that's helpful. Now we each have 5 arrow chips each."
"Yeah, but it doesn't seem right." Emi said.
"No, I think it is. It's some small way for Yuni to attain for her mistakes." I said.
"Ryan's right, she feels that we may have the chance to win and possible stop G.U.N. so we should use these to succeed and not fail her." Charmy said.
We agreed on this and decided to set up camp for the night.(A/N: Time moves fast doesn't it.)
"Man, another two people we knew, both overtaken by G.U.N." Johnny said.
"They seem to be good at enticing people to join them." Sonic said.
If only they knew.
"Well, time to hit the hay." Charmy said.
"Right!" we agreed.
As I lay there, I thought how great this was going. But something bugged me.
How did these G.U.N. DDRists gain access? Could Konamison and G.U.N. be working together?
I was interupted by my thoughts when Charmy walked over and layed down next to me.
"Whatcha thinking about, Ryan?"
"Oh, I'm just wondering how all these G.U.N. DDRists managed to get into this tournament."
"Oh, well don't worry. If we meet more, we'll just beat like we have. No one can stop
our power or our friendship."
"Your right.....jeez." I said, noticing she had fallen asleep.
I tossed her covers over her and joined her in the land of sleep.....
