Spring Break, Day 1:

Wake up at about 8:50am to an abnormal call. My brain recognizes it instantly - the theme to the X-Man cartoon. I jump out of bed and scramble for my cel phone. I know shit's going down. The theme says it all. I wrestle the phone out of my other pants' pocket and flip it open.

[Pat] It's 7:50am... (My clock at home, me not being there, wasn't set for DST)
[Johnny] Shit. Get up, get dressed and come over. We're going to Little Tokyo.
[Pat] But-
[Johnny] DO IT.
[Pat] Yes sir. ._.

After hopping in the shower and waiting on the laundry to be done while playing Rock Band in my boxers with Drew, I drove out. We assembled, got in our cars, rocked on and rolled out.

Fashionably late, as usual. Me, Johnny, Jarrod, and Scott were the last ones there, but we met up with the rest of Banzai and slid on over to the mall. After beating Wes, AKA Kajetokun, in an epic game of shounen pool, I claimed his sister's soul and sent him to the Shadow Realm. It's okay, though. He'll be back in ten episodes with a power up. Afterwards, we watched Tony/Moogle try Legend of Max after getting a 1,000 combo -- his fierce spirit only lasted him through half of the song. I PAUNCHED my way through 200BPM songs on DMX and had to resort to my special WHIRLWIND technique on Para Para.

Most of Banzai headed out after that, roaming Little Tokyo for a while. Bypassing about thirty weeaboo cosplayers (seriously, who cosplays in Little Tokyo?), we found our way to the spaceship statue of EL ONIZUKA. Yeah, he's our hero. After some italian ice cream and book searching we checked out the usual buffet place for food. We got in okay and the food was great, but once again those bastards denied me my grapefruit juice and only gave us one glass, which Tony promptly grabbed. I wouldn't dare take it from him, lest I fall to the might of PONY and BEEEAAMU.

Maybe thirty tiny California Rolls later, we checked out, bypassed thirty more cosplayers, and checked out Jungle Collectables. I typically don't have much to buy there, but for once, something stood out. After thirty episodes of my dark side fighting my light side ending on both seeing how neither can exist without the other I picked up a 1/8th scale PVC Seolla statue. The cashier hit my credit card for sixty-five points of damage, but it'll recover. Give it two weeks.

Seolla in tow, we rolled out of the store and headed back to the mall to cool down. After a few hours of chilling, playing arcade games, and singing Milkshake, Me, Wes, Scott, and Johnny got out of there.

Once back at Banzai Manor we entered in a few matches of Brawl. Johnny mostly played as Alternate Dimension Domon Kashu while Wes and myself engaged in Mortal Kombat. He ended up getting his sister's soul back and I think the two are busy with the epilogue to the season right now.

It's okay.

He forgot about my trap card.

Spring Break Status: Fucking awesome.
Day One -- Complete!
