Hajime just stared at the anti-climatic ending to Roa's show before closing the AVI player on WilyII's main computer and shaking his head.
"I don't know what possessed him to even like that show," he grumbles as he heads for the exit of WDS, finding his presence no longer needed.
The day goes on as everyone from the Cooking Competition rests and recuperates from the ordeal they suffered during Roa's attempt to take over. Little did they realize that a shrilling cry would throw a curve ball into their continuing journey to become the Extreme Iron Chef.
It started early the next morning at the Neko Cafe with a single ring of the phone. The head catgirl waitress walks over and picks it up.
"Hello, Neko Cafe!" she calls out cheerfully, "What can I get for you?"
100 Waffle Cookies, fried rice and a bottle of PB's Special Mango Lemonade. replied the caller from a currently undisclosed area,
And make sure you separate them into individual boxes to be delivered by how many catgirls you have on call.The catgirl cheerfully nods as she jots down everything on her notepad, "Alright, can I get a name and location please?"
What she got instead horrified her more than the recent infestation of tentacles that threatened to [twin slasher] the entire staff if they didn't get what they wanted exactly down to the amount of rice grains in their bowl. Without warning, a large gust of wind blows through the speaker end of the phone, followed by a manly, almost godly roar.
I AM THE OTOKOJUKU HEADMASTER; EDAJIMA HEIHACHI!!!!The head waitress stands in her place, ratty haired and white as a new sheet hanging over the clothesline as horrifying images of large shadows of muscular men surrounding her and her staff, fingers twitching as though ready to pounce at the very sight of their pray.
"Not them...." she squeaks as more flashbacks of that horrifying delivery flashed through her head, "Please Great Mistress of RPM not them.... Most of us still haven't recovered from that horrifying day...."
Ever so slowly she tilts her head back and squeals at the top of her lungs.
OUENDAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!
Yes, it's romanized; I'm currently on a computer that doesn't support kanji
In no time flat, the doors to the Neko Cafe fly open as Ryuta and his two followers flew in, about to address their distressed caller when Ryuta took notice of who it was.
Seconds after their arrival, the entire kitchen flashes red as a monitor drops down displaying a crest that looked like for cherry blossom pedals fused together with the Japanese kanji of "Man" in the center. Upon recognizing where that symbol came from a cunning smirk crept across Ryuta's face as he heads off to talk to the head waitress.
