Tales of a Legacy

This one is a bit more humorous, since I felt like doing something a little funny with Jay. Breakdancing ninjas for the win! I also took a few liberties with the technology level of the Legacy. The story wouldn't have worked otherwise, so just ignore any odd discrepancies.

Also, I noticed that I've forgotten the disclaimer. In case you need this said, I in no way own Tales of Legendia or its characters. I'm merely borrowing them for my own amusement and other's, and not for monetary gain.

Title: Dance Dance Ninja-lution

Characters/Pairings: JJ, Moses (no pairing)

Warnings: No spoilers.

Jay peered around the corner and into the living room of Senel's house. It was devoid of occupants. However, Jay had been raised never to let his guard down, and was still cautious when he entered the room. He walked over to a mysterious device that sat inconspicuously in one corner of the room, and set down a large box he had been carrying. Still nervous, he began to put the contents of the box on the floor in front of the aforementioned device.

The box produced a somewhat rectangular black box with an emblem on it that had letters that Jay couldn't decipher, even with all his vast connections (a fact that infuriated him, not that he'd let anyone know it). There was also a brightly colored mat and a small, flat rectangular box. Jay began the slow process of connecting the multiple devices together.

When he finally finished, he looked around once more. The house was still as abandoned as when he began. But Jay had no idea exactly when his comrades would return from their usual dungeon spelunking and monster extermination jobs. However, Jay had to take this risk since Senel left his home at sporadic times, and this was the only location in Werites Beacon to have such a device.

It took Jay only a few more seconds to get everything turned on. He was quite good with foreign technology; even if he couldn't read any of the symbols on the equipment he could still figure out how to operate it.

"Dance Dance Revolution!" A voice boomed through the house. Jay winced and fumbled with the large square object from which the sound emanated. He found a button with a down arrow next to a crude picture of an ear, and used that to adjust the volume. Now, it was all set. His ultimate training could begin…

Meanwhile, Moses wandered around town, trying to locate Senel's house. He had woken up late that morning. Very late. And apparently, everyone thought it best to just leave without him. Worse yet, he couldn't remember which dang street Senel's house was on! He'd been wandering around for a good hour, and was starving. Senel's house always had food, since Will often caused explosions when he cooked (thus the relatively unused oven) and Harriet was even worse.

"This place is makin' my head hurt," he whined to no one in particular. He crossed the bridge next to the item shop and was greeted with a familiar sight. "Yahoo!" He gave an excited shout as he finally located Senel's cozy two-story house.

However, his sensitive ears pricked up when he neared the front door. There was a faint sound coming from within, some kind of music Moses had never heard before. At least, he assumed it was music. "What the hell?" he muttered and opened the door a crack. Inside, Jay was dancing feverishly on a brightly colored mat while near seizure inducing colors and images raced across the screen of the "television" that had been salvaged from a ruin on the Legacy a short while ago.

"You're a great dancer!" an enthusiastic male voice called out from somewhere. Moses flinched and looked around for an intruder, and saw no one. "Keep dancing!" said that same voice. And dance Jay did.

Moses had to admit the shrimp was pretty impressive. He didn't seem to be missing any steps at all (if the high number that flashed on the screen was any indication). The song began to wind down and went to the results screen.

Jay smirked. That had hardly been difficult. Perhaps he should bump up the difficulty a few notches…

Jay then noticed he wasn't alone. He slowly turned, feeling very much like someone had played a practical joke on him. It was only Moses, standing at the door with a mixture of amusement and amazement on his face. Oh great.

Moses couldn't resist a little teasing. It wasn't often he managed to catch Jay off guard, and he looked pretty embarrassed.

"Well, Jay. Didn't know you could dance that good. Think you could do an encore for everyone else when they come back?" Moses probably should've stopped right there. However, he continued to poke fun at Jay, and completely missed the dangerous glint in his eyes…

A few hours later, Senel and the gang returned to Werites Beacon. When they convened at Senel's house for dinner they were greeted by Jay, who was innocently reading a book while relaxing on the rug. When they inquired as to Moses' whereabouts, Jay simply said he hadn't seen the dumb bandit all day. In the backyard, Moses tried to wiggle out of the ropes that secured him, upside down, to a tree.

Jay received the title of Dancing Boy!

I would've posted this sooner, but I couldn't log on for a while for some odd reason. I think this one is the longest I've written so far. I hope it wasn't too long-winded.

I think everyone meets at Senel's house whether he wants them to or not. He's like that one blonde guy in Cromartie High, if anyone's seen that.
