You stood up and checked on the radio, switching on various frequencies: nothing. You took a portable radio with you (the kind you'd take for performances and for 'man on the street' type of content) and went out on a large balcony. As soon as you stepped out, you heard an inhuman voice coming from the radio.
"12,800,000 meters, one second. 12,800,000 meters, one second."
"Wow, so you can see us." you talked into the mic, looking up at the sky. "Good."
It kept repeating the same thing in Senku's voice over and over again.
"It's useless, Joel's watch isn't connected to this frequency. Plus I'm pretty sure the medusa must be out of battery now."
It just kept going. You sighed, deciding to talk over it.

"You know," you said as you went back inside. "one day some asshole asked what instrument would suit him more. I said an otamatone then and I still do now." your eyes narrowed. "They're sneaky little bastards who shouldn't be underestimated." your voice became grave for a moment before going back to normal. "But as a joke, I first said a pipe organ. Because they're evil and scary." you paused. "But do you know why they're scary?"
Why-man kept repeating itself (rude). It wasn't as scary as it was the first time it talked.
"Personally, they freak me out sometimes. And there are two main reasons for that: the instrument itself, and the way it's presented."
As you talked, you've arrived in your studio and made your way to the storage room where all the instruments were.

"Pipe organs are literally the most extreme instrument ever created by man." you walked towards the back of the room. "The concept is simple enough: the keyboard's plugged to the pipes and when you press a key, air goes into the pipe and it makes a sound. In the modern days, the air is supplied with a motor pump, but back then, other people would pump the air. One of the oldest pipe organs had around 400 pipes and you'd need seventy men to pump the air into it."
You paused to let the information sink in, but then you remembered you were talking to a robot, so you kept going.

"So yeah, it took a lot of people because pipe organs are *gigantic* some pipes could reach several stories tall and the mechanics of the instruments were sometimes built *into* the building." you stopped once you saw the keyboard built into the wall. "Like this one. It takes architects to build these freaks." you stepped closer then began to pace around. "And their size matches their sound, these are *powerful* instruments. Like they're not just loud, hell, they can reach pitches not even the human ear can hear. But, they're also really fuckin' complicated. So complicated I'm having a headache just thinking about it. Famous example: see how pianos have those three pedals that have their own use? Well pipe organs' pedals are just the keyboard again. That's right: you can play it with your feet. Some pieces were written entirely for these pedals, although I try not to think about the reasons why."
You chuckled.
"So already, you have a player who can play with his hands and his feet at the same time. Talk about a workout. Now looking at the different rows of keyboards, one might think that each key would correspond to each pipe in the organ right? Well yes and no. You see uh... okay hold on I need to sit down for this one."
You sat on the organ's stool, putting the radio aside and massaged your temple for a moment.

"Okay so..." you eventually said. "Not all pipes are the same, they don't make the same kind of sound. Like flute and clarinet. There are different types, and so that's what the keyboards are for. But I know I know, there's only two, sometimes three keyboards and yet there are hundreds and hundreds of pipes. Well that's what those levers are for." you uselessly pointed at the levers on the sides. "When you pull one, you're supplying the air to one group of pipes, with a certain type of sound and pitch. If you pull several of them, you engage with multiple group of pipes and it sounds like multiple hands are playing. Some companies back then would literally attach other instruments to the organ: piano, drums, violin you name it. It was a one-man band kind of situation."
You huffed. Talking about pipe organs and explaining them would always tire you intellectually.
"So you have to manage where the air goes, play on multiple keyboards at a time, and you're also playing with your feet. Let me tell you, when I see a master organ player, I am both amazed and creeped out. Because also, it takes balls to play an organ. Remember, they're loud as hell. So when you play one, you'd have to expect the entire city to hear you. So imagine back then how people would practice playing the organ without being put on the spot? Only the super wealthy could practice at home with way smaller ones, then they'd walk into church and play like they haven't been practicing for months! I'm sure that to everybody listening they were highly privileged musical geniuses or something.

Or maybe they thought they were god-sent. Because organs are also very religious instruments, in Europe at least. And I can see why: you're a peasant working in the fields, you walk into a church and then you see this giant monster made of metal, playing this music you couldn't hear anywhere else and that could resonate for miles. Surely God himself could power something like that. And of course, pipe organ players were literary considered holy.

...So, Hollywood! They really pushed the organ into this 'scary and evil' role. I don't know when it started, but there were a few movies when the organ was famously used. First one was in the 30's with 'Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde' (great musical by the way). During the movie's opening credits, that one Bach organ piece everyone knows about plays, except they used the orchestral version. And then, the movie open with Dr. Jekyll playing a different piece by Bach on the organ. What's interesting about that was that in the original story, Jekyll is never described or shown to be a musician, the movie uses the organ to show the audience who the character is, and the audience in this time period gets it. Remember, organs are powerful, complicated and they have strong religious connotations, so this is an intelligent, wealthy and privileged religious man. We get all that information just with this one scene, it's pretty cool.

Then in the 40's, there was this movie called 'the Black Cat' about a satanic cult. I never actually saw it, it just came up when me and my boyfriend were doing research on pipe organs. They also used that one organ piece by Bach, played by the movie's vilain, again conveying all that information. Instead this time, there was a twist! Because we also hear an organ being played during their evil ritual. So instead of representing pure religious music, it's being played for a satanic cult, so all the religious connotations have been corrupted and manipulated to serve evil. But what kind of person would do such a thing? Who would have the understanding of such a complicated instrument, with the resources and skills to maintain such an instrument, and yet alter it to fit their own personal needs?

From that that one piece by Bach became the go-to evil music for Halloween. But guess what? There's another piece to that puzzle, to really get what makes an organ scary. And to understand that, let's turn to the 60's movie 'Carnival of souls'. Long story short: woman gets in a car crash but she survives, big twist, she actually didn't and she's been stuck in some sort of purgatory situation this whole time. So, she works at her local church as an organist, and as the movie goes on she's less and less able to play the organ to the point where her music turns into this creepy nonsensical noice. And everybody freaks out and the church's pastor cries sacrilege. As she loses touch with the living world, she can't play religious music anymore and turns into something almost non-human. And to people who are used to hear organs only playing in religious settings, it all feels very unsettling: as she loses her soul, she can't play the organ's religious music.

And now we have all the clues as to what makes an organ scary: It's not the organ itself, it's who's playing it. Someone who can maintain it and understand how to play it, and is now using it for their on selfish purpose. Thinking about it. If you see this through the perspective of someone from medieval Europe, this guy has managed to manifest the power of God at his fingertips from the comfort of his own home. It is almost supernaturally frightening. An organist spends most of their time alone to practice so they don't sound awful playing to hundreds, thousands of people every week. Give that person some villainous plan, and then you have this mad genius plotting in the background who waited years for the right time to put their plan in motion. That kind of character. Davy Jones plays the organ, the Phantom of the Opera plays the organ, Sweeney Todd doesn't play the organ but the movie opens with an organ so that counts too. Someone who likely comes from a religious background and has fallen from grace, aka Satan, so there's this connection to add as well.

A pipe organ takes a lot of planning and preparation to properly play it, it requires a lot of work and resources just to make it make a sound. Whoever's playing has the money and power to do that. They're loud and powerful and whoever can control it has the confidence and understanding to broadcast that music for a very long distance, and they're doing it in complete isolation. They don't need an orchestra, they don't need help, they don't need anyone. A broken genius left in complete isolation to plot their revenge. A historically religious instrument that's been corrupted by a broken mind, something that could be so powerful and serene has been turned unholy. Who could do such a thing?
...
The scary thing about a pipe organ isn't the instrument, it's who's playing it. If you hear an organ, it's because someone wants you to."

You put the microphone down, without hanging up, and turned to face the keyboard. You shook your hands, pulled a few levers, and began playing.
All of your pent up frustration, all your animosity was put into this nameless piece you were coming up with on the spot. Given the rules on how to play the instrument, this was *so* wrong in so many ways, you were fumbling, missing notes, hitting the wrong keys sometimes. Yet with all the energy put into it, it was mixed together perfectly to produce this solo from hell. It was monstrous. Moreover, the organ pipes were built into the castle walls, and because of that, the intensity with which you played made the entire castle shake, especially towards the finale where you pulled all of the levers.
If anyone was here with you, they'd very likely be terrified. Which was good, because this was your goal. Whatever reason this why-man wanted to wipe out humans, you wanted to show what one was capable of.
It went on for a while. Finally, your hands and feet rested on the last keys for a few second before leaning back and taking a deep breath. You felt ringing in your ears. Then you picked up the mic.
"So yeah. Humanity's not going anywhere. Asshole." you said with a clear voice before hanging up.

You looked around, only now did you notice that the instruments in the room have been knocked over. You quickly went to check if they were damaged in any way, thankfully they were all intact. You sighed, relieved.
"Alright~!" you clapped your hands. "Let's go revive the others-Ow shit wait!" you suddenly exclaimed before running out of the room.
You went to where you guys stored the revival fluid you've been making. Since, you know, you guys' mission was to revive a million people originally. You let out a huge side of relief when you saw that, yes, a few barrels were knocked over by the literal earthquake you've created, but what was left would be plenty enough to revive your friends. Speaking of whom, you gathered their statues together, placing them safely against a wall while locking up the Americans in another room. As statues it's not like they could escape but...
'Better be safe than sorry.' you nodded to yourself as you threw their guns away and put the medusa somewhere safe.

Before reviving them all, you decided to take a stroll around the castle, inside and outside.
"Oh no~ here I am the last human on Earth~!" you said out loud as you looked around. "Would be a shame if a...really hot alien prince would come down here and sweep me off my feet to take me to his mothership because I'm the last survivor and I'm so special! That would be teeeerrible~!"
You took the radio with you, in hope you would hear Senku's voice, saying he dodged the petrification like you did and that he was safe, that he'd come back soon with the others. But all it brought you was extra weight to carry. You didn't mind that much though. Being alone in such a grand space, it felt like you were discovering it for the very first time.

"The only human left..." you said when you came back on the large balcony, looking over the landscape.
You bite your lip, because you didn't want that large grin to form on your face. Call it childish, but as you said, it was a weird feeling, but not in a sad way, on the complete opposite: it brought you a certain sense of power. Especially since that meant... you did it. You've successfully taken over America.
"Eat shit Xeno!!!" you yelled out to the horizon.

Then, an idea popped in your head and your eyes widen. You covered your mouth.
'Let's be real: if Senku wanted to resort to the medusa, then that means that neither Xeno or Stanley could've survived the petrification like I did, so everything and everyone is safely petrified.' you slowly nodded. 'So...a day - maybe a few days, maybe more - could pass, and then I could revive everyone and it'd be cool... So technically, it's like everything's been put on pause.'
You smile became bigger and bigger and you began to laughed.
"Haha~! Vacation!!!" you raised your fists in the air before grabbing the mic and talking to why-man again. "Get ready for an ear beating bitch!"
"12,800,000, one second."
"You should be honored you know." you happily walked back inside. "You're the first one that'll get a private concert like this one!"

You moved all your instruments and equipments outside to enjoy the spring and summer weather that started. Your vacation consisted of remaking songs or make tracks by yourself (it was much more fun when you could do whatever you wanted), then played them back for you to dance to. You'd broadcast everything to why-man in hopes to annoy it to death, after the first day your mind blocked out its repetitive words, kinda became like white noise to you. And when you'd sit down to eat, take a break, or even get out for a bit of adventuring, you'd take the radio with you and just talk to why-man which was like talking to yourself really.
What follows is only a selection of those songs, accompanied with what you'd say before or in between. Sometimes it'd get deep, sometimes it'd get stupid and honestly, you were glad no one was there to see this.

["Devilman No Uta" - Kensuke Ushio] "What can I say?! It's a banger!"
["Partied Out" - Con Bro Chill]
[Iggy Azalea Ft. Rita Ora - "Black Widow" (Prismo Remix)] "I am *so* glad I get to make some proper dubstep!"

"She says tax the rich on twitter, but then meanwhile on youtube she makes videos about her two million dollar appartement! So like, what's going on?! The hypocrisie of it all I swear!"

["Moe Shop" - Love Taste (No Rap)] "I'm not saying the rap in itself is bad, it just doesn't have the same vibe as the rest of the song!"
["Lola" - Superbus] "It's kinda like the French version of I Kissed a Girl!"

"I did have a phase where I was an annoying gatekeeper, it started when I realized I had a talent for music in elementary school. I'm pretty sure people wanted to punch me in the face whenever music came up. 'Cause I thought I was so special and above everyone else just because I want really good at that *one* thing. Then I met my boyfriend and I realized 'oh wait, everyone has a thing that they're good at, it's not just me'. In my defense, he also had a gatekeeping phase!" you laughed. "In middle-school we had a substitute science teacher who was a college student, super smart, handsome and funny and everybody loved him. And he didn't know my boyfriend was super smart too so he treated him like a regular kid. But to him it was like a massive insult to his ego and so he'd start quizzing him on science stuff everyday to prove that he was even smarter than him." you rubbed your face, shaking your head with a smile. "Really, all he proved by doing that was how much of a bratty asshole he was being. And the teacher was so cool about it, he'd just be impressed and congratulate him. Even back then I felt bad for this guy for going through this."

On the first morning of your vacation, you looked out and saw that cows from the meadow, raccoons and other animals have made their way inside the courtyard.
"Ah shit. (Y/n) why didn't you close the door? It's a big door, it's heavy~." you talked to yourself as you went to get breakfast.
It wasn't that bad, you had a physical audience now. They were better than why-man for sure, but at least you didn't have to chase why-man out of the castle. By the way, since you didn't know how to kill an animal nor how to prepare meat, you just sticked to fruits, sweets, eggs and vegetables throughout your time alone.

["Lemonade" - Jeremy Passion, Melissa Polinar, Gabe Bondoc] "Starting with some chill vibes this morning."
["Cheek to Cheek" - Fred Astaire]
["Telepatía" - Kali Uchis] This one you played as loud as possible on the speakers so you could still hear it while you were out.
You went out to explore, see if there were some cool spots to hang out. There was the meadow (some cows followed you there), a little hill with a nice view of the forest, and also the big lake right beside the castle, but if you followed down the river, you could reach the beach.

["SHUM" - Go_A] "Throwback to Eurovision! It's time to get edgy!"
["Dark Side" - Blind Channel]
["ZITTI E BUONI" - Måneskin] "Oh my god play it again! I love the guitar on this one!" you grabbed said instrument, ready to play along.
"I felt so bad for UK! Like don't get me wrong, what they made wasn't to the level, sounded like the kind of thing they'd play in the background at the mall. But zero points? Come on!"

"I was like 'don't do it' and Senku was like 'trust me on this one'. Lo and behold, it all went to shit!" you laughed.

["Dinero" - Trinidad Cardona] "Since we're at the beach, it's uh...beach song time I guess!" (With the help of one of the cows, you transported your stuff (radio, record player, long chair, drinks and snacks, the necessities) in a carriage to the beach).
["The Sign" - Ace of Base] "I wanted to play this one on my show, but I knew my boyfriend would kinda freak out listening to the lyrics. I just know he'd think there's like a double meaning to this!" you giggled. "He's so cute when he overthinks!"
["Me Gustas Tu" - Manu Chao]
"Look at this hermit crab, cute~." you said, crouched down to look at it as it crawl passed you. "Oh but its shell has a hole in it. Hold on, here's a new one for yo- Ow shit!!! Go away seagull! Get outta here! Shoo! Shoo! Jesus Christ that scared the shit out of me!"

"Senku was like 'don't do it' and I was like 'trust me on this one'. Lo and behold, it all went to shit!" you laughed.

"At first I was like 'well~ you know, the brain's a muscle too' but like as a joke! Then we hanged out more and more and I came to know him as more than just a science guy and I was like 'bro, I don't think it's a joke anymore!'" you wheezed.

Karaoke night, it gets stupid.
["Judgement" from Yakuza 0] "I'm sorry, Baka Mitai who?! Judgement is where it's at!"
["Everytime We Touch" - Cascada] "It gives me such early 2000's rave vibes I love it!"
"Excuse me sir!" you pointed at the moon with a big smile. "Is your number 909-too damn fine?!" you laughed. "Woooo~!"
["Strong Enough" - Cher]
["Photograph" - Def Leppard]
["Careless Whisper" - George Michael] "This one goes out to my ex!" you pretended to hold back tears. "I still love you Tony! I know you cheated on me with my sister but we're special baby!"

"And then! He comes to me and saying his ex asked him out! And he said *yes*!" you paced around, getting worked up. "Like! Baby girl! What am I even here for?! Three days worth of advice and you backtrack on me like that?! I was like 'at this point I'm just sitting back and watching it all burn!'"

There were also songs that were used on tiktoks and that you played to then act like you were in edits or just walk around, fulfilling your model/street fashion fantasy.
["No roots" - Alice Merton] With this one, you played it while doing other things and then you pretended that the screen froze, like in a 70's sitcom.
["Competition" - Azealia Banks] (censoring the n word of course, you made a mental note to get someone else to record the lyrics before you would play this one on your show)
["Luxury" - Azealia Banks] "Oh my god I'm the only one left! I'm all alone in this stone world!" you pretended to cry,. "Give me a beat!" you exclaimed before playing the chorus and standing up to just prance around.

"And then I realized that yeah I was good at music, but that's not gonna help me write an essay or do a presentation. I can talk about how I can differentiate composers but I can't write five pages about it with introduction, point a point b and conclusion. I'm not that kind of smart. So I decided to put music aside as just a hobby so I could try and graduate and go to college and get a job. Back then, I didn't want music to be my job, I thought it'd suck all the fun out of it. My parents didn't really help either, they just kept pushing and pushing, trying to make me do competitions like when I was a kid - there were horrible by the way - or make me apply for recitals and orchestras. They wanted me to get with the high society so much that they tried to set me up with a rich kid that I didn't even know, and they did it without my consent! I get that they saw potential in me and they didn't want it to go to waste but that was way out of line." you sighed. "So yeah, music kinda became bittersweet to me at that point, the only way I could really enjoy it was either when I'd play by myself, or when I'm with my close friends. When I could be comfortable and not feel pressured to do something more. I could just...have fun." you paused. "But now, I'm happy that I got to realize what music really is. It's as complex as any other science..." you smiled. "Senku said even he couldn't master a science like that. Shame he didn't say it sooner because in the modern world, I would've teased the shit out of him about it!" you laughed.

["Tadow" - Fkj & Masego]
["What Redbone would sound like if you used to know it"]
["Forever" - rei brown feat. keshi] "When Keshi comes up, that's where the music really turns up!"
["Visa från Utanmyra" - Merit Hemmingson] "This one's cool! Just when you start to get bored it hits you right in the middle! Mmh! So good!"
["Hymne des Fraternisés" (the fraternized's anthem) or "I'm Dreaming of Home"] You bawled your eyes out on this one.
"Why?! Why did war had to separate them like this?! The German Leader! He'll-!" you cried some more, you've been telling the plot to why-man for an hour now but you had to stop sometimes to cry. "He said he was jewish and I gasped! And his wife's-AAAAAH~!"
"12,800,000 meters, one second."
"And bruh! The French Leader! When he finally confronted his superior right after he learns of the birth of his son from his dying-!" you covered your mouth. "Heartbreaking, heart-wrenching even! And the Scottish paster! Oh my god! When he-"

Thankfully, the next day was more cheerful.
["Is It True" - Tame Impala]
["Icy" - Pink Swear$]
["Break" - Kero Kero Bonito] "This is the theme song of this vacation right there!"

[I got more cool songs and funny scenes, but this is getting long...]

"Well, it's been fun!" you smiled as you went to get the revival fluid one day. "Time to revive everyone."
You placed them in a line so you could splash the revival fluid on multiple of them at the same time. Slowly and steadily, they were all de-petrified. They looked around confused.
"Guys wake up it's been seventeen years!!!"
"What?!?!?!"
"Just kidding," you smiled. "it's been a couple of weeks."
"How-what happened (Y/n)-chan?" Yuzuriha asked.
"I escaped the petrification." you then explained how you did it and what you did to the Americans.
"And you didn't revive us for weeks?! What exactly did you do this whole time?!" Yo asked with a frown.
"...Just chilling."

They all raised an eyebrow.
"Listen! I've been through enough, it was time for me to just relax and have fun! Anyway," you began to walk out of the room. "it's time to go find and revive Senku and the others!"
"Wha-how?!" Nikki asked as she and the others followed you. "We don't know where they are!"
"We know they're in the South."
"The South is big (Y/n), how are we gonna find them?"

"Mmh... What do you think why-man?"
"12,800,000 meters, one second."
"(Y/n) what the hell?!?!?!" everyone panicked.
"Right, sorry!" you hung up. "Kinda became a habit...I'll explain later." you added, seeing their confused face, before changing the subject. "I don't think Senku predicted that we would all be revived this soon, but at the same time, no one has contacted me ever. Of course he must have a plan in mind, but the facts are that, as far as we're concerned, it's only us right now. So we can either wait for some kind of signal or message, or we get down there and go look for them. I say we go!"
"But we can't go anywhere without a proper vehicle."
"We got the Perceus down the river, we just gotta repair it. All we'd really need is a car."
"So..."
"So we'll have to work on making one!"

"A car?! W-we-we can do that?!" Joel managed to ask in his astonishment.
"Sure we can!" you stopped in the courtyard where the radio was, plugged to the speakers. "We've made one before, we know how it works! Even if we don't we'll just have to try again and again! In the meantime, we can also try and figure out where our science team's statues are!"
"Trying again and again..." Yuzuriha smiled. "That's how the Kingdom of Science works."
"Exactly!" you pointed at her with an excited smile. "Let's go Kingdom of Science! Our rescue mission to retrieve the science team starts now! Let's do this!!!" you exclaimed as you pressed play. "Now this is exciting!"

["Koe?" - Hatena]
