Y'know, at this point, it would've been a rather good time for Jimmy to question his taste in music, while hauling tail towards the exit. Had he not been caught in BINDING SHOELACES OF DOOOOOOM. But they were just SHOELACES. SURELY the boy could've broken them or at least LOOSENED them, yes?
...no. This is the child that once broke his leg when an acorn connected with it. This is the boy FAMOUS... well, kinda, for his STREAMS of bad luck. In short, the situation was bad and he wasn't making it any BETTER...
And then, it was as if a light bulb went off in his head. It was as if he realized that he could have just, you know, untied himself. With one of his hairpins. Yes. He was going to use a hairpin to untie shoelace. IT'S LIKE DRIVING A CAR WITH A HORSE IN YOUR LAP, AMIRITE?
Well, all jokes aside, he DID managed to get himself free. And DID, in fact, decide to take Miku's advice. But, he didn't forget about her. Nooo, he wasn't THAT terrified.
"But what about y-AAAAH!" Okay, so maybe stopping mid-sentence to run screaming was PRETTY bad...
...not as bad as tripping up again another two/three feet away, however. Yes, around this point in time, even JIMMY realized he was being played for comic relief. But it wasn't HIS fault the guy back there had sounded so... as he would put it, 'scary'.
It wasn't HIS fault he forgot he could've, y'know, flung a spell or something at him. It wasn't HIS fault that he could've answered the question 'does science beat magic?', but didn't. No, it's the Rule of Cool's fault...
...well, sorta. Heeey, at least he wasn't robotic...
...unlike his now ruined digital watch.

Miku didn't just have a nosebleed. The blood was practically pouring out of her head. Think one of those nosebleeds from Karin, if the readers of this post have seen that anime.
Basically it was bad.
And Miku wasn't going to sit around anymore. She was going to run like heck. She ran past Jimmy. "Run faster! He's chasing us!" Miku screamed. She hadn't looked behind her, so she had no idea if Zero was or not.

Zero paused and scowled at the blood. He hated blood. Not so much a fear as the clean up of said blood. He let his dander settle a bit, basically meaning his human form stabilized. He looked at Jimmy and hopped off the stage before striding next to the kid.
"Boo," he said, his face looking rather bored.
Yeah, he'd calmed down a bit and just wanted to see if he could easily scare the living crap out of the unimpressive looking kid. Once he left, he'd set about trashing the place from its technological core. An explosion sounded good right about now... not enough to trash the theater, but at least make this room unusable for a while.
Actually, part of his calm down was curiousity. He wanted to learn more about whatever programming had made the teal-haired girl. She'd called him "Gakupo" by mistake. Did that mean there were others...?
(OOC: Oh yeah, Zero totally found a new "toy". Vocaloids beware. XDD)

Okay so yeah. Jimmy... yeah, Jimmy had AMAZING reflexes. So amazing, even, that he couldn't remember important stuff for the LIFE of him. Such as epic spells of epicness. No, no, he forgets the incantation when he NEEDS to remember it, such as when an NPC is in danger. But when someone simply says 'boo' to him? OH, NOW IT'S TIME FOR PANIC.
In fact, his mind managed to override the need to even use words, at this point. NICE GOING, MIND. WHEN HE'S ABLE TO TALK AGAIN, HE DOESN'T NEED TO.
So yes. A crimson red blast shot out of his hands, pretty pretty much just soaring completely over Zero's head. Hell, it fired straight UPWARDS.
So yeah. Jimmy for the fail. But hey, he woke his legs up(finally) and ran like hell. Which is always good.
Still. Jimmy for the fail. Full. Stop.

Well, that wasn't quite what Zero had expected. He hadn't had any intentions of chasing the boy if he ran off. And still had none, so he chose to watch the ball of heat shoot into the ceiling... and everyone knows things burst into flames if they get hot enough.
Oh yeah, the roof totally burst into fire. Zero stood up and stepped back as part of it crashed down in front of him. He looked at it unimpressed. That kid had powers, appeared to only come out in life or death situations. Zero chuckled. Which, consdiering he was standing as fire fell down around him was rather... disturbing...
He turned towards the exit and began walking out. That reaction had been pretty good. Still, he wasn't sure what this Miku girl was. Or who this Gakupo person was. Hell, it gave him something to do, at least. And if they were programs, they were easier targets than any people would be. Or realities.
He walked out of the theater, pretty much the last one to leave among the mass panic. Someone stupid might have walked up to him to ask if he was okay... if he wasn't so damn creepy and calm about casually walking off...
(OOC: Guess that's a wrap. XD)
