"Game Over" Started sliding into Neku's mind, but just as quickly as it did, Shiki yelled to Sho; "Why don't you back off!"

"Ah, and who might you be?" Sho asked.

"What does that matter?!" Shiki answered as Mr. mew lunged at him. "Go, Mr. Mew!" She screamed "It's all you!" Mr. Mew jumped back from attacking and Sho started running.

"Shiki! You're alive?!" Neku exclaimed, astonished.

"Yeah, of course I am" Shiki replied.

"Would you mind introducing me to you're little friend here, Neku?" Joshua asked, sidling up to the pair.

"Oh! Right! Joshua, this is Shiki, my previous partner. Shiki, this is Joshua, my current partner," Neku introduced.

"Oh! So, you're Neku's friend! I thought you where a white and grey Neku-eating-monster!" Shiki said, laughing. "Ya know… I COULD have killed you," she said flicking her hair back.

"Oh, could you really, though?" Joshua mocked.

"Oh, you little-!"

"Now, now, girls, stop your squabbling," Neku said, annoyed. (He was right in the middle of it all.) He stuck his hands out to separate them.

"Hmph!" Shiki said, crossing her arms and looking away.

This was followed by Joshua's annoyed, "Ugh."

"C'mon you guys! You just met! And your first words to each other where those of 3 year old children!" Neku exclaimed.

"Ugh, fine I'll cut him some slack, but only if HE does the same!" Shiki said.

"Gosh! you two!" Neku growled in frustration. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "Alright…Joshua, now it's your turn."

"Fine. We'll get along, but as soon as we get back into the RG, I'll-"

Neku cut him off with a loud, exasperated sigh and pinched his temples. This was going to be a long day.

"Neku!" Joshua snapped, irritated at being interrupted. Neku gave a long-suffering sigh, and turned up his music.

— THIS IS A LINE BREAK! —

"WHAT?! He's still alive?!" The Composer roared. "I though I told you to KILL him!" "Well you see, sir, I-"

"I know very well what you DIDN'T do, Sho." He glared furiously at Sho. "Anything I actually want done around here I have to do myself." The Composer sighed as he got up from the big chair he was sitting in. "I thought I hired you to help me, the only thing YOU'RE doing is FAILING!" He screamed.

"Uh, yes sir. I will try again, sir." Sho mumbled.

The Composer adjusted his glasses and sighed. "Very well, but if you fail again…" "Don't worry sir, I won't," Sho said, leaving through the station underpass.

"Ugh, employees these days. They just don't do the job properly anymore" The Composer thought with great disappointment.
