2 Days Left

Neku: Hey… This is…The scramble!? Another day has passed?

Beat: Aww…HELL no! This can't be happenin', man! What day is it?

Dex-Starr: Hey, calm down!

Streaky: It's Day 6! Nooo!

Dex-Starr: Calm down, I said! We've still got time.

Beat: CRAAAAAAP!

Neku: Hey, we don't have time for nervous breakdowns!

Beat: Yo, I'm only human and Streaky's the only animal! If the Iron Maiden was tellin' the truth, today's the day I get ghost for real, man! And Streaky will be gone forever!

Neku: …We still have to try.

Beat: Yeah?

Dex-Starr: Let's go see Mr. Hanekoma.

Streaky: Where-Oh! Duh! Cat Street.

Neku: We haven't looked around there yet.

Beat: Aight, sweet! Ironface is gonna be there. I feel it, yo! I ain't goin' without a fight! C'mon!

Neku's Though: Mr. H…I need to get the whole story-find out for sure he's not the Composer. But how do I ask him THAT?

Beat: Move move move move move move move muh-WOOOVE!

Neku: All right, Me and the Cat are moving!

They head to Central Street and they saw BJ

Beat: What the-

BJ: To right the countless wrongs of our day, we shine this light of true redemption, that this place may become as paradise. What a wonderful world such would be…

Dex-Starr Here he comes!

They are fighting and they won

Beat: You hearin' this, yo? What's all that babblin' about?

They are heading toward Cat Street

Neku: What?

Streaky: Whoa, man. An' I thought the last one was busted up.

Dex-Starr: Whoever it was headed for Cat Street.

Beat: Then it musta been the H-Man. …Returnin' to his lair!

Neku: Look, stop imagining things. It's pointless. Once we talk to him, this will all clear right up.

Beat: Aight, man. But le's hurry.

They made it to WildKat and look trashed up

Neku & Dex-Starr: What the hell!?

Beat: Who redecorated? This place is trashed, yo. You think Coffee Man did this?

Neku: Why would he wreck his own shop? Maybe he was attacked.

Streaky: Man, I don't get none a' this!

Dex-Starr: This place is deserted…

Beat: I'm so sick a' this! I mean, what's goin' on, yo?

Neku: The wall-break was after Mr. H.

Beat: Ironface? You think she smashed it up?

Neku: No. She said she would stay in one place all week. If she was here, she couldn't have smashed those other walls.

Streaky: Who, then?

Dex-Starr: You got me. Somebody else.

Beat: Yo, we need to find a clue.

Neku: …Of course! The camera!

Beat: What, that thing you used yesterday? What is it?

Neku: It lets me take pictures of the past.

Beat: Whoa! Tha's badass, man!

Neku's Though: Two days ago, the Miyashita Park wall was still up. Which means whatever happened here took place-

Beat: Yo, lemme snap somethin'!

He grab the phone

Neku: Huh? Hey- Wait, don't- STOP!

Beat: Huh? Yo, Neku. I think it's broken.

Dex-Starr: … The camera only works three times a day.

Beat: Huh? Wait, so that means-

Neku: Three pictures a day.

Beat: Bwaaah! Say somethin' sooner, man!

Neku: Yeah, 'cause I had all that time to react.

Beat: Maaan… I didn't get nothin'. What a waste of-WHOA! Yo, Neku, check it!

They look at the Picture and saw Mr.H

Dex-Starr: Hey, that's… Mr. H.

Beat: What's he doin'? Hidin' somethin' ?

Neku: Let's check over there.

They look at it and saw a Keypin

Beat: Yo, it's a keypin!

Neku: A keypin? For what?

Streaky: I ain't never seen this one before, man.

Dex-Starr: Well, we've already checked everywhere…except one place! The Shibuya River!

Beat: Tha's gotta be where the Iron Maiden is! She picked a wall we couldn't break! I knew she was sneaky, yo!

Dex-Starr: … Hey, something's in the envelope. A letter…From Mr. H? "Staying alive in this Shibuya boils down to one simple trick: Enjoy the moment with all your might…whether it's gloomy, whether it's bright!" …Well, it's pretty damn gloomy right now. Mr. H….

Beat: Yo, he left us the letter an' keypin for a reason. He wants us to go to the River, huh?

Dex-Starr and Neku look curious about what Mr.H is doing

Beat: Aight, then! Hoooooo! What are we waitin' for? Le's find Ironface, rescue Rhyme, and knock the Composer flat!

Dex-Starr's Though: Go to the River? It's more than that. Why does Mr. H even have the key? What does he want me to do with it? Is he sending me to the River…or calling me there? And for what purpose? Why, Mr. H?

They made it Cadoi City

Neku: What's up?

Beat: The hell is that heap of garbage!?

They saw it

Dex-Starr: Heap? …No! What's this junk doing back-

Minamimoto: (Voice) Miss me much? You hollow-skulled hectopascal!

They saw him again

Neku: The Grim Heaper!

Beat: Hecto-whatcha-huh? What language is this guy speakin'?

Dex-Starr: You're ALIVE?

Minamimoto: Zetta duh! I've been calculating this from square one. That attack I used to bake your partner, I used for a reason.

They look at his Body

Neku: Your…your body!

Minamimoto: Hmph, this? This is my latest masterpiece. I call it: "Myself"!

Beat: Punk's turned himself Taboo, yo!

Minamimoto: The attack I used erased me, yes…

Dex-Starr's Though: But you're back…

Minamimoto: But I was refactored, through the refinery sigil, into…this! This body, this power…all through the magic of Taboo psycho-animation!

Dex-Starr: So YOU made those burn marks.

Minamimoto: And now, this number-cruncher is back…with power that rivals even the Composer's!

Beat: You gotta be jokin'! That's why you Tabooed yourself up? Have some sense.

Minamimoto: Sense is garbage! CRUNCH! I'll add it to the heap! All that matters is MY beauty. Being reborn from the sigil was part of my equation. This… "Tabooing myself up" was unexpected. …But it works. I'll make an imposing new Composer!

Dex-Starr: Wait…You went to WildKat!

Minamimoto: Yeah. That set was empty, though. Rrgh…Where'd he run off to? You know, don't you! Tell me!

Neku: We have no idea!

Minamimoto: In that case…who needs you? Attention, 000s! It's time for you to die 4 a cause…Mine!

They are fighting him and they look exhausted

Streaky: Nggh…The heck does this guy eat? He's so powerful!

Minamimoto: Heh heh… Slabs Of Ham, Celery And Horseradish, Tons Of Asparagus. I'd say that's about enough calibration… This time, Composer… You fail!

He left

Beat: Yo, where you goin'!? C'mon, man, we gotta go after him! What if he beats us there?

Neku: Don't worry. He doesn't know where "there" is. Besides, we've got the key to the River. He's stuck either way.

Beat: Aight, then. But man…That punk was TOUGH.

Dex-Starr: Well, we better deal. He said his power rivals the Composer's. What does that tell you about the Composer?

Streaky: What, that's nuts. …You really think he's that tough? We better be able to win, yo.

Neku: You gonna give up if we can't?

Beat: Hells no! I'm goin'…I'M GOIN'! Hooooooooo!

Dex-Starr's Though: The River… The Composer… Mr. H. I better be ready for what I find.

Day End
