Thought I added in a little deleted scene as a reward for mounds of reviews you gave me and also for breaking the hundreds review mark, surpassing my past fics that have been in the hundreds. A little request from Angel of Darkness. Here's the afterparty chapter!
Bonus Chapter: Little Get Together
Later that evening in Shanghai Secluded Valley, sometime after the second day of the battle, Shao took Musaki, Liu Shang and Taji over to the temple where there's a get-together going on and all of them were blown away by how this looks and all Musaki could do is say, "Wow..."
"Pretty epic, huh? My dad totally wanted to throw in a little shindig after a heavy day of battling and that because you guys are finalists, he wanted to congratulate you on your amazing talents." Shao explained.
Taji chuckled at this and said, "Your dad's pretty cool to do this for us."
Soon enough, Shao sees his dad along with Takumi and Shaka and when they came over, Shin Hai was excited to see Musaki, Taji and Liu Shang come this way and he said, "The finalists of the hour! Glad you could come!"
Musaki smiled at this and he said, "Thanks. Your son told us about it so we wanted to know what was up."
Shin Hai chuckled softly and said, "You three owned the competition like it was no one's business. I was definitely rooting for you all, especially Xing-Fu."
Liu Shang looked up at Musaki for a second and he said, "Why's that?"
"Everyone in town is saying that Xing-Fu should win because he's next in line for winning the competition next to his father, but knowing Sakamoto, he would want Xing-Fu to just honor this tradition and do a good job with it." Shin Hai answered.
Taji figured out why Musaki is well-known around parts of Shanghai Secluded Valley and he said to Musaki, "It's like you're famous here."
Musaki chuckled at that and he said, "Nah, it's not like that. The reason for that is people pretty much knew my dad. Some say I'm like him or that I have the same traits as him, but really, I'm just me."
"That you are, Xing-Fu. Man, your dad would be so proud of you right now." Shin Hai said.
Musaki smiled at that and as he looked around, he could see that it's quite the party from dancing to games to everything in between and he turns to Shin Hai and said, "Quite a party."
"Yep. There's like some food, games, a dance-off and even something me and my pack like to call...an all-out animal jam."
All three of them look at each other confused-like and asked, "All-out animal jam?"
Shao chuckled at this and said, "Yep. My dad loves the all-out animal jam. It's what he calls the party that goes freakin' insane."
Not long after, Shin Hai assembled his pack together and soon after, some music started playing and Shin Hai was the first person around the stage dancing along to a dance beat and he started spinning, backflipping and freestyling some sick dance moves and Musaki could not believe that someone like Shin knows how to dance really well and when he did a little kung-fu dance move, all of them cheered for him.
Musaki dropped his jaw in shock over this and he asked Shao, "How does your dad do that?"
"My dad's energy has the moves of a young wolf and since he's pushing 37 soon, he might as well live it up like nothing before." Shao replied.
Not long after, they started playing a little dance music and Shin Hai was ready to bust a move along with his wolf members as they showed them what they got and all of them assembled in a breakdancing move where they freestyled all the way and soon enough, he suggested that Musaki should join in. At first, Musaki hesitated, but Shao brought him up on stage anyway and once Shin bust out some moves, Musaki could see that he could see what he was doing.
Musaki brought out some kung-fu/breakdance moves as he did some criss-crossing, spinning, twirls, backflips and freestyled more, impressing the audience and everyone in between, including Taji and Liu Shang. They never expected Musaki to be so good at it and how he was well experienced with it.
Shin Hai looked at him in surprise and he said, "Man...you're good."
Not long after, Liu and Taji took a shot at archery (just for fun) while Shao and Musaki played some darts and played guitar like they were a couple of music rock stars and sprayed each other with silly string. It was like a huge amount of release time for this shindig.
Then, Musaki, Shao, Liu Shang and Taji took a chance at rope tugging where it was Taji and Shao on one side and Liu and Musaki on another as they planned to win this game and evidently, Liu and Musaki garnered enough grip to win this tug and both of them high-fived each other.
Later on, they ended this shindig by dancing to another set of dance music and Taji and Liu Shang took some dancing lessons from Musaki as the music begins to play.
Hit the lights
let the music move you
Lose yourself tonight
Come alive, let the moment take you
Lose control tonight
It's a mad, mad world
Gotta make an escape
It's a perfect world when you go all the way
Hit the lights
let the music move you
Lose yourself tonight
Liu eventually got it down quickly as he took some of Musaki's moves and incorporated it into his own, which surprised Musaki and Taji and both of them high-fived each other and Taji opted a turn at this and puts his own spin on it and it was like a big dance craze. Not long after, everyone got into it as mounds of lanterns lit up the entire temple as the song continues to play.
So let's go, go, go
All the way
Yeah, let's go, go, go go
Night and day
From the floor to the rafters
People raise your glasses
We could dance forever...
Hit the lights
let the music move you
Lose yourself tonight
Come alive, let the moment take you
Lose control tonight
It's a mad, mad world
Gotta make an escape
It's a perfect world when you go all the way
Hit the lights
let the music move you
Lose yourself tonight...
And it ended with Musaki, Liu Shang, Taji and Shao laughing as they walked out of the party with good spirits. Musaki chuckled softly and said, "Best fun ever!"
"I'm glad you guys got to experience it for the first time." Shao added.
"Thanks for bringing us there, Shao. I never knew how much fun it would be." Taji added, happily.
"Hey, you guys are the finalists. You guys are true champions." Shao said, happily.
Minutes later, they went their separate ways as they headed towards separate homes to rest up for another day of competition because they may need it and it's also nice to have a little bit of fun and for Musaki, it was the best gathering he's ever attended to...in Shanghai Secluded Valley.
The song was 'Hit the Lights' from Selena Gomez. Now...it's completed! Thanks again!
