Kohta: Now I regret getting off the bus!

Kohta screamed as he shot a corpse. Behind him, Saeko took down two of the walking corpses.  

Saeko: Do you want to borrow this?

Kohta: Hand to hand isn't my speciality!

Saeko: Too bad. It sure is mine.

The two kept taking down the corpses coming their way. Soon Kohta ran out of ammo. 

Saeko: There are far too many of them.

They heard a motorcycle roaring as a bike flew over them. 

Saeko/Kohta: Holy shit!

The bike slammed into a corpse. Rei quickly took down the undead nearby as Takashi passed a police gun to Kohta. The gun otaku quickly went back to being a psychopath as he shot the corpses.  Suddenly there was a loud crash catching everyone's attention. Saeko looked behind her and her eyes widened. Three of the undead were squashed under a police car. The most bizarre thing of all was that it stood straight and standing over the car was a very familiar blindfold-wearing person.

Gojo: Yo~

Saeko: Gojo-kun!

Gojo: You guys sure have a habit of getting into trouble whenever I am not around~

He jumps off the car making his way towards Saeko. He stopped just two feet from her.

Gojo: Good job. I'll take it from here.

Saeko smiled at him.

Saeko: Thank you.

Gojo raised his hand and offered her a plastic bag.

Gojo: I brought fresh fish. Mind holding on to this?

Saeko: Not at all.

Saeko took the bag from him. They heard footsteps behind them as the rest caught up to them.

Rei: Senpai!

Gojo: Saeko take care of them.

Saeko: What are you about to do?

Gojo: Watch.

Gojo turned his back to the group as a horde had taken up the majority of the bridge. The bridge had been blocked from the other side leaving only their side exposed. 

Gojo began walking towards the horde. He punched the police car damaging it further and creating a loud noise that attracted the entire horde. He walked passed the car making his way closer to the horde.

Shizuka: Gojo-kun!

Kohta: Gojo-senpai what are you doing?!

Takashi was about to run after him but stopped when a bokken stopped him from taking a step further. He looked towards the responsible.

Takashi: What are you doing?! He's putting himself in danger!'

Saeko: He told everyone to watch, so watch.

Saya: What the hell-

Suddenly everyone heard music playing catching their attention. The horde was attracted to the sound of music. As Gojo neared them only a foot between him and a horde capable of running over large population.

Gojo: Alright gentlemen I want you to repeat after me~

Gojo began to snap his fingers to the song's beat.

Gojo: Ra ta ra ta ra ra ra ta~

Gojo punched toward the horde and a flash of black happened. Turned the undead at the front of the horde to a bloody mist! Everyone looked shocked, their minds could not understand what happened!

Gojo: Your turn~

From the shadows, pitch-back skeletons arose taking everyone's attention. They spoke in unison even though they lacked their voice boxes, lungs and mouth. Their voice was crystal clear.

Skeletons#1: Ra ta ra ta ra ra ra ta~

The voices of men were heard singing to the beat. Repeating Gojo's phrase together perfectly. The white hair man swang his arm sending a dozen of the undead flying over the bridge.

Gojo: Bring it around now~

 He began to snap his finger again to the beat as he kicked five of the undead launching them away as the impact shattered their bones to dust and turning their inner organs to paste.

Gojo: Ra ta ra ta ra ra ra ta~

He punched another dozen of the corpses into red mist as he kept singing and dancing to the beat.

Gojo: Ladies~

Another group of pitch-black skeletons emerged from the shadows next to the first group of skeletons. Now they sang their voice crystal clear as the first group. The voices of women singing could easily be heard.

Skeletons#2: Ra ta ra ta ra ra ra ta~

Gojo: Good Golly!

Another dozen turned to paste by his kick. The sound of music and his singing kept every human captive. 

Gojo: La la la la la la la~ La la la la la la~ La la la la la la la~ Yeah!

A flash of black occurred as Gojo had already taken down half of the horde. The bridge was covered in crimson blood of the corpses turned to paste. 

Gojo: Aww~ Yeah!

He began to tap dance slightly. The sound of his feet hitting the bloody ground was as clear as the water below them. He suddenly stopped as he punched the head off another few corpses in a single swing.'

Gojo: Bring the beat back!

He began to snap his finger again.

Gojo: Ra ta ra ta ra ra ra ta~

He grabbed a corpse and threw it into the sky with monstrous strength.

Gojo: Your turn~

This time every single skeleton sang their voices in perfect harmony matching that of the beat.

Skeletons#1/#2: Ra ta ra ta ra ra ra ta~

Shizuka: Ra ta ra ta ra ra ra ta~

Shizuka cutely sang together with the skeletons.

Gojo: Very good~ Ta ra ta ra ta~ Go ahead now~

More small shadowy beings emerged next to the skeletons and sang.

Shadowy beings:  Ta ra ta ra ta~

The corpse that was sent flying into the sky crashed back into the bridge creating the sound of splashing.

Gojo: Good Golly!

He turned ripped the head of an undead and span it over his finger like a basketball. 

Gojo: La la la la la la~ Yeah!

He threw the head at the remaining horde. Just as the head hit the horde Gojo flared his cursed energy slightly and the head detonated causing a large explosion. Breaking the bridge in two. He turned around and gave a slight final bow to the stunned school group. A mushroom cloud rose behind him cutting them off from the other side.
