#DDR#

"Dance Dance Revolution?" Rukia questioned the orange haired girl as Orihime just looked on expectantly "Is that some sort of war?"

Tsatsuki rolled her eyes "I continue to emphasize the point that Shinigami need more human training before coming to the living world." She pointed out before grudgingly explaining "Some people call it DDR for short, it's a dance arcade game where you follow the pattern shown on the screen, supposedly to the rhythm of the song."

"Please tell me you know what an arcade game is." Ichigo deadpanned from where he was playing a shooter game with Chad. The Mexican teen was actually beating him, which made him honestly wonder where he had learnt the skill.

If only Ichigo knew, that his Abuelo had shown him to shoot Iguanas in the elder's ranch. It was fun.

Anyway, back to Rukia. She kept on looking at the machine with a dubious eye before she followed Orihime onto the game pad reluctantly. Tatsuki smiled evily at her –or, well, she thought it was evil-looking- before inserting some coins into the slot.

The game flashed brightly with flimsy colors she would think was just for show before Orihime started to control the menu with the arrows. The raven head looked down at her feet and tried to memorize the buttons –those were big buttons, not like the T ve control- before Orihime brought her back to attention.

"All you have to do is step on the arrow shown on the screen once it overlaps with the transparent one." She explained. Tatsuki never agreed to play these games with her!

"O-okay." Rukia agreed before narrowing her eyes at the screen. She needed to concentrate,

Before she knew it, the game had begun and she found herself trying to follow the arrows on the screen. Her feet coordination had never been good, and to try and follow the speed it was going at! She'd be surprised if she didn't accidently fumble and fall on her ass.

She looked to the side, and found her jaw dropping at the ease with which Orihime moved before trying to unsuccessfully follow her example. It just seemed she was incapable of playing this excuse of a fun game from hell, and if she never had to play again, it would be too soon.

Almost a minute after, the game stopped and it was obvious without seeing her score that she had really sucked. In her opinion the game had taken an eternity, and she'd be high tailing off the pad as soon as she could.

"Ha!" Ichigo laughed from where he stood beside Tatsuki –he had lost to Chad a minute into the song and had filed it away as a lost cause "I thought nobles were supposed to know how to dance."

Rukia bristled as she instinctively kicked his shin which he narrowly dodged "Like you could do any better, I bet you have two left feet!"

Ichigo winced as Orihime brightened in glee making Rukia think she had won this round.

"Yes, come play with me Kurosaki-kun! It's been ages since we last danced!"

Tatsuki and Rukia both did a double take as Ichigo tried to shrink in on himself. Almost instantly Chad appeared on his side and put a comforting hand on his shoulder –Chad wasn't letting him escape!

"You an Orihime, go out and play DDR in your free time?" Tatsuki asked skeptically which made Orihime nod cheerfully, not catching the sarcasm.

"Uh," Ichigo scratched the back of his head "Kinda?"

Tatsuki shared an evil grin with Rukia before the two raven head's hauled the orange head onto the stage. Orihime just smiled in excitement before turning to the screen to choose the next song as the girls manhandled him to stay on the pad.

"Okay, so we'll start with our usual, and speed up." She stated, making the other three lean into the screen to see what the orange-haired girl had chosen.

"Pluto Relinquish?" Tatsuki rose an eyebrow.

Chad sweat-dropped "Isn't that regarded as one of hardest songs on DDR?"

"She's putting it on extreme." Rukia pointed out, making the other two do a double take.

Ichigo just sighed in resignation before resigning himself to his fate and positioning himself accordingly as the song began.

Someone in the arcade choose that moment to turn and see what the fuss was about before brightening and turning back to his buddies "Guys, it's the orange dance twins!"

The rest of the arcade seemed to have heard the shout, and soon enough the DDR was surrounded by the other customers. Even the employees and managers were crowding!

"Huh,"Tatsuki cocked an eyebrow "I guess they do come here often.

And now that she looked at the two, they were moving in tandem and seeming to sink more and more into the dance routine. As she saw the steps she realized the song wasn't fast, but the amount of steps being crammed into every second was intense.

Almost a second after that song was finished –with full combo!- Ichigo started to scroll down and look for the next song as if going on autopilot. He even had a grin on his face now, making it obvious he was enjoying himself; Over the "Period".

This song was faster, but once again they were certainly surprised at how Ichigo moved, like if he knew the steps by memory and with a grace his delinquent appearance belied.

"Guess the joke's on us." Chad pointed out needlessly as the crowd cheered in excitement making them jump in shock.

"What the hell?!" Tatsuki cried indignantly. It seemed the two orange head's had even forgotten about the outside world!

"EGOISM?" Rukia questioned the new song.

Tatsuki just face palmed as she saw her best friend move in tandem and share wide smiles with her crush while she would always stutter when talking normally. Did this not make her nervous?!

"Is that how they solve the sexual tension?" Chad pointed out.

The raven-heads winced. . . .
