AN: Thank you to those who keep reading and reviewing this fic. Your comments really mean a lot to me, please keep them coming! I do plan on finishing this fic soon…I know it would be a landmark for me, particularly as I have been working on this now for two years, but this is officially my longest fic to date. If you haven't yet done so please check out my other fics and drop a comment. Thank you loyal readers!

Intermission: Meanwhile in Tokyo

"Yo yo yo. Listen up Towk-ee-oooh. I'm coming to you loud and proud this sunny afternoon…"

"You're such a goof…Dj K would never say that."

"What makes you think I'm trying to be Dj K?"

"Well." A pause. "For one thing you applied for this dumb job at the radio tower…"

"D-jaying isn't dumb…it's cool."

"Sweetheart, you're working at the University radio station. Nobody listens to that shit..only nerds who have nothing better to do than find out if the price of mineral water has gone down in the student union."

"Nobody buys mineral water in the student union hun."

"Nerds do. They don't trust the water fountains."

"Well now you are being silly."

Silence.

"I wonder where Professor K is now."

"Probably in a hot tub somewhere surrounded by babes in bikinis."

"I don't think so." Another pause. "You know, I don't think he was all that rich anyway. We were just kids then, we thought he was the world, but now that I think about it…I guess he wasn't so different to us. Not really."

"Living off a student loan in Hikage Street?"

"Why not? Perhaps he was."

Another pause.

"I'm hungry."

"Well turn that darned thing off and let it go on auto-run for a while. Like I said, nobody listens to it anyway."

"Don't be bitter."

"I'm not."

Cube and Combo both got up from their spinning office chairs and exchanged a smirk as they pushed the heavy glass door open and stepped out of the booth.
