Saving Ellie

Naruto and Musica were waiting outside the hideout.

"Your friend is taking to much time," Musica said.

"He'll be here," Naruto said.

"What are you two doing?" a man with Mohawk like hair said aiming a weapon at Musica.

"We're waiting for someone," Musica said turning to the man.

The man dropped his weapon in surprise.

"Y…You're the leader of the Silver Rhythm Gang!" the man said and shouted, "Intruder!"

"Looks like we're going in," Musica said.

"Yeah, looks like it," Naruto responded.

They spend the next few minutes beating up guards.

…Inside…

"Hey! I asked if you wanted to play Shiritori. Why are you ignoring me?" Elie asked.

(A/N: for those who don't know, Shiritori is a Japanese word game in which one player names a world and the next player must say a word that starts with the first word's ending syllable).

Lance remained quiet but annoyed.

"Well then, I'll start. 'Plue'. So yours can start with either 'U' or 'E'," Elie responded

Lance took out his sword and struck the wall close to Elie.

"You're really getting on my nerves," Lance told Elie.

"Sorry," Elie apologized.

"Do you realize the situation you're in?" Lance asked.

"Yeah, but I'm just bored of standing around," Elie explained.

Just then a sword came out of nowhere and cut the chain tying Elie to the wall.

"Glad I'm not too late," someone said.

Lance turned to see Naruto and Musica.

"Step away from the girl, you old perv. I'm here to rescue her," Musica said.

"I'm here too," Naruto responded.

"Musica! Naruto!" Elie shouted.

"Musica huh?" Lance responded, "Same name as some drunk under our thumb."

"Are you okay Elie?" Naruto asked.

"Yeah! Although he was trying to look down my shirt," Elie responded.

"What?" Musica responded.

Lance look at her with a really annoyed look.

"Just kidding! Don't get all mad. It was just a joke," Elie explained.

"I have no business with you two," Lance told Musica and Naruto, "Where's the Rave Master?"

"Looks like you guys don't know me very well," Musica responded.

Bis came bursting in at the moment.

"Master Lance! What the heck is going on?" Bis asked, "I just got back and it looks like someone pummeled all the men outside!"

Bis look at Naruto and Musica and recognize them.

"What the-? Those are the kids from before!" Bis shouted, "Aaagh! You guys are behind this, aren't you?"

"Where have you been all this time, Bis?" Lance asked.

"I was at the old man's, and I was beating him up, but this kid came, and there was rave, and then Bam! I fell down," Bis explained.

"Bis, take care of these three," Lance ordered, "I'll take care of you later."

"Yes sir!" Bis responded and turned to a man, "You! Bring me the Crank Master 3000!"

"Y…Yes sir! Right away!" the man said.

"Are you sure Chubby is up for this?" Musica asked.

"What did you say?" Bis asked.

"Don't tell me," Naruto thought.

"What's wrong? You don't like being called Chubby?" Musica asked, "Then how about Pig?"

A man came with a weapon that strapped to the arm with four drills at the end.

Bis equipped it to his arm.

"You're going down!" Bis told Musica.

"What's that?" Elie responded, "It's huge!"

"You don't want to mess with me when I'm cranky!" Bis shouted as the drills started spinning as he came at Musica, "I'm going to grind you into pulp."

Musica dodge the attack as Bis slam the weapon down.

"You need my help?" Naruto asked.

"No, I can handle this guy," Musica said.

"Die!" Bis shouted going for a swipe.

Musica leaned back and dodge it.

Bis kept attacking but Musica kept dodging.

"You're amazing Musica!" Elie shouted.

"Enough of this!" Lance said and swipe his sword at Bis cutting him.

Musica and Naruto was surprise seeing it.

"He couldn't beat you anyways, so I'm going to take you on," Lance said.

"You took down your own comrade?" Naruto asked.

"Comrade? That pawn had too many loose screws," Lance answered.

Naruto clenched his fist.

"You are one rotten old man," Musica said.

"It doesn't matter, because my sword is top of the line," Lance responded.

Old man Musica kept working on the sword.

"Haru," Old Man Musica said.

"Huh?" Haru responded.

"Back when I still worked as a blacksmith, I lived happily with my family," Old man Musica responded.

"Geez, is he going to give us some history lesson," Gamakichi responded.

"Because…my despair began with the sword I created for Lance," Old Man Musica explained, "And cause of it, Lance massavred my family with it."

"What?" Haru responded.

Old man Musica finished the sword.

"I'm sorry for not helping you sooner Haru," Old Man Musica responded, "Now take your sword Haru!"

Haru grabbed and lifted it.

"Pu-Puun!" Plue shouted.

On the sword, above the crest for the rave, was a musical note.

"It's a fine sword," Haru told Old Man Musica.

"Please Haru! Destroy the curse sword I created for Lance!" Old Man Musica requested.

"Forging swords is the path of a blacksmith and you travelled it well Musica," Haru responded placing the sword on the strap on his back, "No my path is one of a Rave Master. Leave it to me! I will destroy Lance's Sword!"

Musica and Naruto faced Lance.

"Well then. Are you ready to dance Lance?" Musica asked.

"Hmpf … dance with my beast sword, punk, and you're gonna get bit!" Lance said swinging his sword, "Illusion Beast!"

Lance summoned illusions of wovles.

Musica took the Illusions down.

However Lance moved in to attack Musica.

Lance cut Musica on the chest.

Naruto moved in front of Musica.

"Watch out, the illusions are only a distraction," Musica told Naruto.

"Times up!" Lance said as he aim his sword at Elie, "Now to get rid of this girl."

Lance went to strike Elie.

Suddenly the ceiling collapsed and Haru fell through.
