The train had crashed right next to the edge of the park, which was part of Starman's plan. Starman began to run faster, and Taka and Yasuha continued to run after him. Starman yelled, "I'm here! I've arrived at O Katrina Park! I've won!" He began to laugh and squeal in joy, almost like a child. Yasuha asked Taka, "Wait, isn't this the park that's in that picture? The one you took from Starman's home?!" Taka exclaimed, "Yes! It is!" He pulled the image out his pocket, which depicted a specific bush present in the park. On the picture was written, "Lacrimosa 4/6". Taka exclaimed, "4/6 is today's date! And here we are, at the park!"

It was late at night, and darkness had swallowed the area. Because of this, no one was present at the park. Starman pulled out a flashlight as he ran through the trees and grass in the park, hoping to find something important. Taka and Yasuha continued to chase after Starman, and they were beginning to feel tired and worn out. Yasuha said, "This... this feels pointless! Starman's ability basically doesn't allow us to kill him! If we want to defeat him, we'll need like- an attack that somehow destroys his whole body at once!"

Taka responded, "I can't think of anything that could do enough damage to defeat him at the moment... wait. Yasuha. He's looking for something. Could he be looking for this bush!?" He showed Yasuha the picture once again, and Yasuha replied, "Probably! But what the hell would a bush be useful for!?" Taka and Yasuha wondered during their 5 second breather before continuing to run after Starman. As they ran after Starman, a sudden vibration ran through the ground. Starman yelled, "Life On Mars!"

Suddenly, a large crack in the ground appeared. It began to move towards Taka and Yasuha, possibly to entrap them. The crack was so deep it almost seemed as if it were a portal to the abyss. As the crack moved through the ground, Taka exclaimed, "Be careful, Yasuha! If that crack were to move underneath your feet, you would fall right into it! And there's no guarantee that it's shallow enough to be climbed out of!" Yasuha asked, "Where the hell did it even come from!?" Starman laughed, "About a year ago, this town had its biggest thunderstorm yet! The lightning was powerful enough to strike trees in half! I'm taking the damage those trees took and moving it to the ground!"

Yasuha and Taka jumped over the crack as it moved under them, acting as if they were athletes on an obstacle course. Taka asked Yasuha, "Uh- you got any more of those pipe bombs? Like, the ones you used during that whole Venus situation?" Yasuha awkwardly laughed, "Uh- I kinda- well- I used them all..." Taka snapped at him, "Damnit Yasuha! That coulda been our ticket to killing this bastard!" Yasuha snapped back, "I didn't know this would happen! I thought you would just shoot the guy in the head and it'd be over! I only planned to use 'em during desperate situations, which is exactly what was happening during our Venus encounter!"

As Starman ran, he took off his inkling wig, ears, and eye contacts. His brown, human hair was now visible, as well as his golden brown eyes. His purple lipstick shined with the reflection of the flashlight. "I'll show my true form during the creation of the new world. I was created to resemble the humans, the dominant species who lived on this earth thousands upon thousands of years past. A species so supreme, no outside force could cause its downfall. Humanity killed itself."

Starman continued to look around for something, as the two continued to chase him down. "So far, there have been 7 mass extinctions. I plan to cause the 8th. I will wipe out all life on earth and create a new beginning for life. This is how it was all meant to be. Fate had been leading up to this, from the creation of the last universal common ancestor, to this very moment." Taka yelled, "So you plan on killing literally EVERYONE on earth?!" Starman looked Taka dead in the eye and declared, "Yes."

Starman continued to run as Taka and Yasuha both stood shocked to hear about his plan. "So if we don't find a way to kill him..." muttered Yasuha, "We ALL die! Us and everyone we've ever known!" Taka said, "This is far more serious than I initially believed it to be! I knew that Starman would be far more different than the average foe, given his relation to Caravan and his status as a human. But I didn't expect him to plan on destroying all life on earth! Is that what his 'ultimate ability' is supposed to enable him to do!?"

Suddenly, the two heard Starman laugh maliciously. They followed the bright shine of his flashlight, and saw him holding up a metallic cube while standing in front of a bush. "That's the bush in the photo!" exclaimed Taka. Starman looked over at the two with a devilish grin on his face. "I have obtained the Lacrimosa cube! I have achieved immortality!" Yasuha had no idea what the Lacrimosa rock was capable of, or what Starman would do with it, but followed his instincts and yelled, "SHYNESS BOY!" He created a stretchy arm, with which he grabbed the cube. Starman yanked the cube away from the hand and laughed.

Suddenly, a metallic substance began to cover Starman, almost making him look like a cyborg. Taka exclaimed, "Wait- so that's what that was! Lacrimosa- I remember now! That was Caravan's immortal form!" Yasuha looked over at Taka with shock, "Wait- Starman's IMMORTAL!?" Starman pointed at Yasuha, "Yes! I've achieved the ultimate form of life! Now, all I have to do is find the capsule my sandwich is in and eat it! Then, I shall obtain the ultimate ability, and begin the creation of the new world!"

Yasuha looked over at Taka with absolute terror on his face, "What the FUCKK!? Taka, what the fuck do we do!? How the fuck do we defeat an immortal man?!"

Taka grew a determined look on his face, "The same way I defeated his creator, Caravan. I remember now. I must create a perfect pizza of good luck."

Item: Lacrimosa Cube

The origins of the Lacrimosa cube are unknown. It is unknown whether it was artificially created or naturally created by the earth. Anyone who touches the cube is able to achieve absolute immortality. This is how Caravan Palace achieved his immortal Lacrimosa form. The cube needs to regenerate for 5 years after being used, hence why Starman waited so long to enact his plan.

Phenomenon: Pizza of Good Luck

The Pizza of Good Luck is a bizarre phenomenon and technique occasionally used in battle. If a person uses the rhythm in a specific way, they're able to collect energy around them and turn it into a pizza. This creates a Pizza of Good Luck, which brings good fortune to the creator. A perfect Pizza of Good Luck can be created by using an absolutely perfect version of the melody and rhythm. A perfect Pizza of Good Luck bypasses all barriers of reality to bring its creator good fortune.
