Right, until the Official Start of Tenchi Survivor, please RP as your characters here in the meantime if you wish.

A Man in a black suit, with top hat and tails, stand in the centre of studio, grinning.

"Welcome, One and all. I will be your host for... the next few days. And Welcome to....

WHO WANTS TO BREAK THE FOURTH WALL!"

"Actually, I think that's what you're doing already, though we have no walls of which to speak here...."

Behind the Man dressed in black, Kagato, who was the one who just spoke, and No.9 rise on a platform that rose out of the floor.

"And I think the Show is actually, Who Wants To Be A Tenchi Survivor?"

"oh.... So it isn't, Who Wants To Be Tent-"
"NO!... It isn't."
"-By Me."
"Just shut up. Now. And Leave. This is Our Show, not you, you mysterious person."
"Great insult."
"Shush No.9. Now, RESTART!"

The Studio Lights turn off, to cast it into the Darkness.
A Single Spot light comes on to Illuminate Kagato and No.9 on their Platform.
"Welcome Friends. Due to Technical Difficulties, Those blasted fool will burn for trying to run out on Kagato, soon Soja will have a lock on them, then.... hm hm hm hee hee ha ha ha BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!.... >ahem< However rather than jump straight into things, we're going to wait around to see if we can recover some of the lost data. Only a couple days, we'll start this weekend, no matter what. Until then, we're going to play... a game.... >ahem<... No.9, will you stop that..."
"Dal Distum waz downim-downim- don don dodon don don dododon DOOOOON! Alright, done."
"Where was your 'The Cheat' music comic from anyway?"
A Second Spot light illuminates the strange figure in black, who despite No.9 being finished, is still doing the Cheat type music.
"I thought I told you to leave?"
"I only take orders from.... Him!"
He points in a direction, and a stoplight illuminates a mirror.
".... Oh hardy har har... Now go!"
"Make me!"
"GAH! I don't have time for this... Without Further Delay, I introduce Our Guests!"
A series of spotlight shine on 8 podiums. Eight Empty Podiums.
".... Where are our contestents?"
"don don dodon don don dododon DOOOOON!"
"Oh be quiet.... And give me the list..."
No.9, hesitates, then hands Kagato a sheet of names.
"... Why is the last one missing?"
"We lost it when da diston waz downim."
"Confound it!"
"We think it may have been, Mihoshi's Man... was someone..."
"As who?"
"We have no idea..."
"Great, just great... Let's just hope they are not all still waiting in Innsmouth or something like that..."
