Zero and Gakupo jerked towards Miku as she made her speech, looking almost like clones of each other with the way their hair fluttered. Right down to the gaping mouth expressions.
"I never said that!" Gakupo said.
"Why do I need to take my shirt off?" glared Zero.
Gakupo recovered first. He really had no room to argue, he'd dressed like Miku for a concert before. He'd even been accused of being his own twin sister at that event. Zero saw Midori in the crowd and sighed. He quickly turned away, hoping she hadn't seen him see her. With her there, the possibility of violence was fairly high. And probably directed at him. Well, if it got too bad he could flee through a computer system.
Gakupo glanced at the crowd. Zero's reaction was a bit humorous, he wasn't used to fangirls. The violet haired bishounen flipped his bangs up and waved at the girls, "We'll need you to make room for us if we're to get to the arcade, ladies," he said.
Zero thought he was going to be sick, but he concealed it well enough by covering his hand with his face. This was a zoo.

A few fangirls swooned when Gakupo flipped up his bangs, but the vast majority made room. Thankfully, Midori was far in the back, where she couldn't see Zero.
Luka walked through the pathway the fangirls made, and was on her way to the arcade herself. She wanted to get there before the vast amounts of screaming fangirls made it impossible to hear herself. Miku followed behind.
"This is gonna be awesome!"
"This is going to suck."

"Come on Len! Hurry up!" Rin yelled as she pulled Len's collar toward the arcade as well when he was looking at a few musics that they made. "Okay, okay..." Len responded while he waved to a few fans with Rin.

Zero kept an eye on Midori out of the corner of his eye as he walked after the group. The majority of the crowd seemed to be focused on Gakupo, and his attempts at glaring away the few that were interested in him only resulted in high pitched squeals. He'd heard of fangirls before, but had never had much in the way of experience with them. Midori seemed calm compared to some, and he was grateful most of them were swarming around Kamui.
On that point, he seemed to be handling them rather well. He was even taking the paper they were shoving at him and signing as he walked. The Arcade had come into view. He glanced around and saw several computer ports. Good, he had an escape route. He didn't see it ending well no matter what the final result was. And Midori was going to see him soon...

The whole group finally arrived inside the arcade. Miku automatically ran over to the DDR machines, bringing several fangirls with her, while Luka decided now would be a good time to inform the manager of what was going on.
Miku continued yelling into her megaphone. "Alright everyone! There are only four rules for this DDR match! Rule #1! Don't talk about the DDR Match! Rule #2! Both combatants must go shirtless this whole match and will deposit their shirts and anything that covers up their sexy bishonen chests with Rin-chan! Rule #3! Any combantant that cheats will be disqualified! Rule #4! Songs will be decided by popular vote! The combatant who wins the most matches will win Luka-chan's heart!"
Luka's jaw dropped. "WHAT."

Rin just exclaimed happily, "Okay men! Toss your shirts at Len!" as she just sat next to Miku. "Wh-what? You're suppose to do that R-" Len yelled annoyed, but was interrupted by getting hit by Gakupo's shirt in the face. "I'm fighting against the winner remember? I can't be the towel person!" she exclaimed happily as she watched the two.

Kamui twitched as Miku listed off the rules, "Hey, don't decide that without her permission!"
Zero's glanced at Kamui, "Hey, I have no interest in your girlfriend. If you're so confident you can win, it shouldn't matter anyways."
Kamui ducked, half expecting some object to be thrown at him by Luka thanks to Zero's comment. When none came he straightened up and took off his shirt, throwing it in the direction he had seen Rin in last. He didn't even seem aware that it had hit the blond boy instead of his twin as he took position on the machine. How could Miku do that!? He took in a breath and tried to calm himself down.
Zero walked over to the place where Rin and Miku were sitting, not caring if he bothered either of them. He dropped his jacket and shirt beside Rin and pointed, "Unless you want to get very sick, don't touch those." He didn't specify what the issue would be, but it was due to his outfit merely being another manifestation of his human form. The virus could potentially kill any program that tried to handle it, at least with how he had seen the Vocaloids react to his touch.
Zero looked over at Kamui, who seemed nervous. Right, the comment Miku had said about Luka. He smirked, he could use this to his advantage. He had no need to breath, he could easily taunt the violet haired Vocaloid as they danced. Wordplay was an important part of any fight, after all. He stepped up to the machine.

"Right, so does anyone have any suggestions for songs?" Miku yelled into the megaphone. There was an almost unanimous chorus for "Dancing Samurai."
"Um... is that even on the machine?" Miku asked Luka, who had come to sit down next to Rin and was hiding her face in her hands.
"Your manager struck up a deal with Konami too... they just released a Vocaloid Mix version of DDR about a week ago..." Luka said. Miku took a closer look at the labels on the machines.
"Oh! Dancing Samurai it is! Alright boys! Strut your stuff!" Miku said.
"Yeah! Kick his ass, Gakupo-kun!" Midori yelled from the back of the crowd. Oh, she was very much aware that Gakupo's opponent was Zero.

Len was still recovering from the hit but soon just walked over next to Miku and Rin and stood there watching them. Rin said nothing as she watch the two shirtless men.

Kamui was a bit surprised by the unanimous sounding request. As the screen counted down, he tried to get his thoughts under control, pulling out his silk fan from his pocket as he did so. Zero frowned at the crowd's choice. Well, he already knew he was unpopular. And while he wasn't familiar with the song had a funny feeling from its name Kamui was. He spoke quietly enough that the violet haired bishounen was the only one who could hear.
"I feel I should tell you, if I win I'll delete her."
It would have made the balance totally in Zero's favor had he not heard Midori scream, right as the music started. As the first line was sang both men tripped over their own legs. If the goal had been a synchronized stumble backwards, they would have gotten a perfect ten.

Miku sweatdropped. "Dear god, this isn't going well at all," She said to herself.
Luka decided now was a good time to slip out before anyone noticed her. Thank god the fangirls weren't taking up all of the aisles in this place.

Rin and Len just continued to watch together as the to men fell.

Kamui recovered first, although both he and Zero had already missed several steps. It seemed partly thanks to the way he flipped open his fan that he recovered. Zero was at most three seconds behind him.
It was amazing how well the two were balanced, considering Kamui's familiarity with the song. The score on the game was bouncing back and forth as to who was in the lead, but there was a clear play style differences between the two. Zero seemed focused on getting the score, while Kamui seemed more interested in looking good as he did so.
Needless to say, even those fangirls (and the few fanboys) that didn't know Zero were all about Kamui's flourish. And those than knew either of them were leaning towards Kamui as well. Zero spoke quietly to Kamui as they continued.
"If you don't get serious about the score, I'll beat you."
Kamui made no response. Whether it was because he didn't hear, didn't care, or was too focused to let things distract him, it was unclear. But Zero's score was starting to stay on top more often...
(OOC: I do plan on having Kamui win, but gotta make it exciting, right? XD)

Miku stared at the scores, and then turned to the crowd. "Things aren't looking so good for Kamui-san!"
The crowd went wild at this, yelling cries of encouragement to Kamui. Midori especially was being particularly wild.
Meanwhile, Luka was sitting outside the arcade, hiding her head in her hands. "This is so stupid."

Len just watched the boards seeing that Zero was winning, while Rin was eating a banana.
