| After school ~ Evening - Where...?
Unsurely, Hayato asked Gotoh, ''Repeat that. Where.. are we heading?''
Gotoh zestfully replied, ''To_ A Arcade_ with games by a special company-''
| Later-
Stupefied, Hayato asked, ''This arcade, it's a_ Capcon Arcade~! _ And it's-in a mall???''
Upbeatly, Gotoh replied, ''You are correct -ma man! This morning, before school, I glimpsed a humble little advertisement for this place, and that was when I realized_
-It's been way too long, since I stepped my feet into à arcade. -6-7-months-maybe.''
With a heavy sigh, Hayato asked, ''Very well~ Pick a game, any game... I suppose.''
((Gunshots! Zombies groaning!))
((Game Over))
Exhausted, Hayato asked, ''So... Had enough 'Residual Evil' play?''
With a inhale, Gotoh said, ''I'd say so. You're skills were on fire, my friend. Next up, how about_ _ _ -What about we do 'the bat dance!'
''-Not even when bats fly. Pick again.'' Hayato refuted, too quickly.
Dejected, Gotoh groaned, ''Aww-man. Aha, Righto. Some other option then..... Eheh. I have made my choice.''
Game title screen, 'Super Ultra Highway Fighter 7 Mega Turbo - Version.3!!!'
Snidely, Hayato asked, ''After all these years, they're only on 7...? Hmh. Logically, they would've been on 15 now, if they stopped with these trivial rereleases.''
Spiritedly, Gotoh rebutted, ''None of that matters now. Come`on, Let's pick a fighter!
Mhm... My choice_ will be Zangrief. -Yours?''
Sensibly, Hayato replied, ''Urhm. T. Bision. *Head nods*''
((Stage loading))
Gotoh anxiously thought, '\Aw-Math! Why did he have'ta chose a unrivaled fighter -like T. Bision?\'
Hayato advised, ''I heard you. Your thoughts have sprung another leak... ''
((Awkward chuckle))
Game host, '3_2_1-BEGIN!'
Gotoh thought, 'I'll start things off with a jump and-'
Player 1, ('Urrhhh!XGahhh!XTcc!XZhh!Ah!XGahh!XNrrgh!XUrAAAHHHhhh!XMrrrhm-Mrm!X-*Dying groan!!!*')
Game host, 'Player 2 - You WIN!'
With a wimpy squeak, Gotoh stood there in utter disbelief.
Puzzled, Hayato asked, ''Gotoh? Gotohh?? *Shoulder shake*''
Shaken, he spoke, ''-Gahh! -RRRRRR-Round 2! I didn't even get a proper chance to warm up! Come`on, let's do another round!''
Hayato simply said, ''If you say so... ''
| 17 seconds later-
((Death cry))
Game host, 'Player 2 - You WIN!'
((Odd crackling))
Hayato asked, ''What's that noise...?''
Frozen stiff, Gotoh answered, ''The last sparks_of my fighting spirit.....now burnt out... ''
| Later ~ Mall's sit-down cafe...
As he sat down, Gotoh said, ''I got our
''Thanks.'' Hayato said, as he quietly took one.
Promptly, Gotoh said, ''-Almost forgot. One of these fried balls, has a special random surprise for both of us. I'm pumped to find out which-''
Without warning, Hayato started coughing heavily, and noted, ''Cahhh! Maybe_ More better of a -Cauuh!- warning nexxtt time.''
Chipperly, Gotoh exclaimed, ''Oh -You found it first bite! What was the surprise?''
Analyzing it, he stressed, ''Yrm... Mustard and spicy wasabi. _What a paring.''
| Some chomps later...
Deep in thought, Gotoh hailed, ''Hayato. Thanks for tagging along with me, and playing random stuff. *Thumbs up!*''
Hayato calmly responded, ''You're thanking me? Mnm. ((Accepting nod))''
As he took a Takoyaki, Gotoh peppily said, ''Let's come here again, next time. -And maybe_ we can get a classmate to join us. *Bite!*''
Worried, Hayato asked, ''One of our..classmates?''
As rampant tears ran down has face from pure spiciness, Gotoh strainingly said, ''Doesn't that idea -Cough, cough- sound like a kick`ng time???''
