"1…, 2…, 3, Go!"

"…I like to move it, move it".

"…He likes to move it, move it".

"…She likes to move it, move it".

"…We like to…"

"…MOVE IT!"

"Holy man!" Sebastian exclaimed again, but this time with a lower and more astonished tone as all his ears and his entire being listened to this familiar music.

When Sebastian first heard that there was a music district in the residential zone, he was attracted to the prospect of seeing it immediately as he was curious to see a whole district of clownfish that was dedicated to music.

Though things like this were not a rarity in the part of his previous world that he came from, he never expected to see something like this in a monster city.

He was thrilled to see singing clownfish!

Just the thought of it left imaginary bolts of electricity going through his body that stimulated his excitement so much that he was stoked to see it.

Apart from his main hobby and profession which was anatomy, his more frequent minor hobbies were mainly spectating professional football first and listening to music second.

These 2 never failed to disappoint his expectations, they were part of the defining factors that made the current Sebastian who he was. 

Watching a prime Lionel Messi play was the best thing that happened to his life apart from anatomy, and with the numerous superstar musicians out there, he was never starved of cool music. 

All these meant that the thought of seeing intelligent clownfish who were also fans of music presented the greatest hyping factor in his life. Once he got there, the sight did not disappoint his excitement, he was thrilled by the display.

Sebastian was not exposed straight away to familiar music; he was first exposed to a variety of foreign music that was probably composed by the fish.

Being exposed to lyrics, rhythms, beats, and music styles that were completely adapted to clownfish culture was such an eye-opening encounter that Sebastian suddenly felt like a tourist exploring a fantasy world of music.

He felt like he was finally living his dream. Anatomy was his main dream, but drowning in a cacophony of sweet and rhythmic music was a minor dream that refreshingly appeased his senses.

As the music battered at his hearing organs from every side, he slowly felt like his soul was floating and was exploring the boundless void.

With every change in beat, lyrics, and style, his mood and imagination changed with it. At times, he was floating in space, at other times, he saw himself in a forest admiring the wonders of nature, while at other times, he saw himself with the girl of his dreams as they watched the raging waves of the sea together. 

As Sebastian experienced all these rushes of emotions, his brain activity increased as he suddenly remembered his first and only crush. 

Debora, that was her name. 

She was also an anatomist but an unusually jovial one in his team, he crushed on this lady for years without ever finding the courage to profess his love to her. Now, at this moment, Sebastian regretted not ever finding the courage to do it.

Sebastian was like he was sucked into his own world of imagination, euphoria, and different emotions. This persisted until the change, it persisted until he heard his first familiar song.

As a kid, Sebastian was a huge fan of cartoon movies like Alvin and the Chipmunks and Madagascar amidst a bunch of others.

So when he heard this iconic song, it was like he was hit by a hammer to the head as he was ruthlessly yanked out of his world of euphoria.

Sebastian didn\'t complain though, hearing this song impacted him so much that his eyes remained opened wide like saucers for a long time. He hastily searched with his eyes for some time before he pinpointed their location.

On the third floor of a huge sea anemone, this group of colorful clownfish played music as they unleashed the full vibe of this iconic song.

With their cutely beautiful body colors, their delicate handling of their magic instruments, and their voices that seemed angelic, Sebastian was drawn in immediately as he lost himself to the music.

"How…, is…, this…, possible?!" He asked, astonished.

Sebastian thought that \'move it\' was the end, but he was blown away when his high sensitivity to sound due to his sound domain enabled him to detect even more familiar songs that completely blew him away.

"…Forever young…"

"…I wanna live, forever young".

"…Do you really wanna live forever, forever?"

"…Forever young…"

*****

"…My time is here".

"…And I\'m making it clear".

"…Oh, I love you, my dear".

"…But I\'m going…, I\'m gone".

*****

"…What can I say except, you\'re welcome"

"…All the islands I pulled from the sea".

"…Hey it\'s ok to say, you\'re welcome".

*****

Hearing all this familiar music, Sebastian could no longer concentrate, it was like his brain short-circuited. His brain started filtering every other music while allowing only the familiar ones to flow through.

Once he heard familiar music, it was like a bolt of electricity once again ravaged through his body as all his attention became focused on it.

Of all these familiar music, none of them struck Sebastian with such intensity as the one that played next. His emotions were further stoked.

"…Deboree-deb n\' deboree-de-bree-deb" 

"…Deboree-deb n\' deboree-de-bree-deb"

"…Deboree-deb n\' deboree-de-bree-deb"

"…Deboree-deb n\' deboree-de-bree-deb"

"…Oh Debora, always look like a zebra".

"…Your sunken face is like a galleon".

"…Clawed with mysteries of the Spanish Main, oh Debora".

"Oh, Sh*t! Oh, motherf*cking shit!" Sebastian was so hyped that his giant body started bobbing up and down to the music vibes.

His actions were already drawing public attention but he did not give a damn. He allowed himself to be swept by the emotions in the song, allowing his soul to drift further with the music and get lost in it.

The version of this song as sung in the iconic Baby Driver movie sang in his imaginary mind as he saw the reason why life was so sweet in his previous life again.

This continued for a few minutes until the music finally came to an end. By this time, a small crowd already gathered to watch the enormous Megalodon who was not barbaric enough to hate music but actually loved it.

Sebastian didn\'t give a damn about the audience. Once the music came to an end, he opened his mouth and roared his heartfelt emotions out loud.

"I f*cking love the music district!"

Sebastian finally came to an end of his tour in the music district, and the residential district as a whole. This was because he already got clues about one of the major objectives that brought him here.

Listening to all these familiar songs, apart from being thrilled by the music encounter, he felt even more thrilled because he was more or less 100% sure already that the person who introduced these songs was an earthling like him.

There were too many coincidences. 

There was no way for the same songs to appear and for there to be such an uncanny depiction of it, the only explanation for this was that the one who introduced them came from his world and at the same era as him.

For the first time since arriving at the anemone domain, Sebastian got tangible clues about one of his objectives, the motherf*cker lord.
