Soul Arena Volume 1 extra
Mini-comic/Omake:
(Lance and Jacks chibi heads appear on the screen, with everyone else’s in the background)
Lance and Jack in:
“Dance to the cheat!”
(Chibi style)
(2 months after Lance and Toshiro become members of the team)
“I pick…Beat Beat Rave (a parody of DDR)”
It was the weekly ‘pick something that’s remotely fun’ night for the team.  Katie had suggested a game of twister.  Needless to say, no one wanted a repeat of the first game of twister they had played.  Niko and Alice wound up having to get stitches after that incident.  Roy had suggested a game of Hint.  Everyone had said that board games were out, hands down.  Alice had suggested a paintball war.  Every one but Lance (big surprise) had immediately said no.  Everyone else pretty much got the same answer.  Well, everyone except Toshiro.
“Really?  I never took you for the BBR type, T-Man.”
Smiling sheepishly, Toshiro said, “Well, back in Japan it was one of my favorite activities.”
Grinning, Lance said, “Sweet!  I’ll set up the game!”
(20 minutes, 3 frayed extension cords, and one charred Silver later)
“Let’s get this party started!”
Lance, Niko, Toshiro and Alice were up first.
“Alright, what song show we go by?”
Immediately everyone said. “ ‘YOU CAN’T TOUCH THIS’!”
“Alright!  MC hammer it is!”
(4 and one half minutes later)
Grinning eagerly, Lance said, “Alright!  Who’s ready to get served next?”
“Actually Lance, it’s our turn.” , stated Katie, pointing to herself, Jack, Ken and Warren.
Pouting, Lance stomped over to the couch, watching as Jack beat everyone, using all his legs.
‘Man, that’s not right!’ thought Lance.  ‘Using all those legs is a hugely unfair advantage!  I’ll show him!’
“Alright, Jack!  I challenge you to a game of BBR!”
“Why?  You want to get served too?”
“No!  I’m gonna show just how a REAL champion plays this game!”
“Alright, your on!”
Waving his finger at Jack, Lance said “ Not so fast.  No using all those legs of yours!  It’s totally unfair!”
Pausing for a moment, Jack said “Fine!  But let’s make this interesting!  Loser…has to…do the others chores for a month!”
“Fine!  Let’s do this!”
Glaring lightning at each other, they got on the stage, hit the start button and began the dance off.
“Excellent!  Perfect!  Excellent”, stated the game announcer as Jack and Lance danced off.
(1 minute later)
“(Huff!) Feeling the burn yet, stick legs?”
“(Grin) (pant) Not even breaking a sweat, two legs!”
(the end of the game rounds)
Both of them done, they looked at the Screen to see who had the highest score.
Lances jaw dropped.
“7 million forty two?!  No way!”
Glaring down at Jack, Lance exclaimed, “No way!  There is no way you got that high of a score without cheating!”
“But I did.”
“Don’t make me laugh!  Show us your legs, you cheater!”
Grinning, Jack showed everyone his legs.
Lance exclaimed, “I knew it!  You did cheat!”
“Nope!  Look closer!”
Squinting, Lance saw two of Jacks legs were tied together!
Grinning, Jack said, “You said, and I quote, “No using ALL those legs of yours!  I didn’t’!  You never said I couldn't use MOSTS of them!”
Jaw dropped, Lance could only stared in shock at Jacks loophole as Jacks grin became wider than his mouth.
Moral of the mini-comic: Loopholes…ROCK!!  When they’re in your favor, of course!  ☺
