Hey guys sorry for not updating for a few months! I'm so sorry I was too busy with school and work to be on my computer and work on my stories...

Well here's chapter 4 and there are going to be new relationships formed!

All mistakes are mine and I do not own the Persona series

Rise walked up to Teddie and thanked him for protecting her. She knelt down next to him and he said "I know how it feels like to not know the real you…but don't stress over it yourself, we can figure it out together."

"I'm sorry for causing all of this…" Rise apologized to the gang.

"Just remember not to push yourself to hard." Shiro said while smiling at her.

"It's been so long since someone told me that." Rise said while smiling at Shiro.

Rise walked up to her shadow, "I'm sorry, I desperately fought to find out which is the 'real' me, but there was no 'real' me to find…."

"No 'real' me?" Teddie muttered to himself.

"Since all of those Risettes was me all along including you. So I'm sorry for pushing you away." Rise told her shadow and her shadow started to change to Rise's persona, Himiko.

"There's no true self…" an unknown voice said.

The gang turned around and saw a huge Teddie behind the real Teddie.

"The truth's is unattainable. It will always be shrouded by fog. You'll never find it…." Teddie's shadow said.

"Wh-What are you talking about?!" Teddie shouted at his shadow.

"You are hollow… you are nothing. You are but a mere…."

"SHUT UP!"

"Hmmm if that is how it is…. Then I'll grant you one truth….You will all die here." Shadow Teddie said.

A huge Teddie emerges from the ground and his head had a huge hole but there was nothing inside there except darkness. The hole started to suck in everything that was broken.

Everyone had grabbed onto something so that they would not be sucked in unlike Teddie who was sucked in.

A stage light broke and almost crashed into Shiro and Rise but Shiro had pushed Rise down so that the light would not injure them.

"Shiro…"

"Yeah?"

"Hold Himiko down so that she would not be pulled in."

"Himiko?"

"She's my persona."

"Oh! Izanagi!"

Rise summoned Himiko and Izanagi held Himiko by the waist just like Shiro who was holding onto a pole that held the stage lightings up and holding Rise by the waist.

"There's something in there other than Teddie." Rise informed them.

"But I can't analyse it because of the fog…Found it! It's just below his chest!

Yukiko was held by Minako but they were going to be pulled in soon… including Chie and Shiro noticed.

"Izanagi!"

Izanagi flew and stabbed Shadow Teddie's weak spot and he vaporized since he was defeated and turned back into a smaller version of himself.

"I never thought Teddie would have a part of himself that he was supressing too…" Chie said.

Teddie accepted his shadow and said "I'll find my own answers to the truth."

"Teddie you're not alone." Shiro and Minako said.

"I'm such a lucky bear to have friends like all of you."

Teddie persona was, Kintoki-Douji.

They went back to the entrance of the TV world and Teddie started to do sit ups saying that he wanted to shape up so that the gang would need him to fight and after that they left for the real world.

The gang was in Junes and Shiro asked "So who is going to send Rise home? Since she was in the TV world for quite a while she should be more exhausted than all of us."

"ME! I'll send her home!" Yosuke exclaimed while doing a small dance since he was happy that he could send Rise home.

"Maybe…we should let Shiro send her home…. We wouldn't want something bad to happen to her right? Unlike this crazy fan, Shiro would not do anything to a girl right, Shiro?" Chie said while glaring at Shiro.

"Huh? Yeah of course!" Shiro said while walking towards Chie and asked quietly "Are you mad at me? Did I do something wrong?"

"Hmph! I'm not telling you!" Chie huffed out.

"Hmmm okay then….Rise let's go." Shiro said while looking confused and she gave Rise a hand to stand up since she was sitting on the floor to rest for a little while.

Shiro and Rise were in front of Marukyu Tofu and Rise said "Thanks I can make it from here."

"Get some rest okay?"

"Yeah but Teddie isn't resting."

"Well that's true….but still get some rest though…"

"I'm glad I came to this town. I feel like I really belong here."

"Hehe that's great."

"I'm gonna help you to find the killer."

Rise clung to Shiro's arm and asked "Can I make this my special place."

"Huh?! Sure."

"Hehehe well I guess this is good bye."

"Bye, remember to get some rest."

"Hehe okay, see you."

Rise went into the shop and Shiro could hear Rise's grandmother asking where she was.

Shiro took out her phone and texted Minako that she was going to talk to Chie so she won't be home so soon. After that Shiro called Chie.

RING RING

'Why can I hear Chie's phone ring…and it's coming from behind me….Don't tell me?!'

Shiro turned around and there she was, trying to hide behind a mailbox.

"Chie? What are you doing here?" Shiro asked while walking towards her.

"Ah, crap guess I'm caught….Well I was just making sure that Rise-chan is home safely, wouldn't want her to be harassed by someone….." Chie said while staring intently at Shiro.

"I already said that I wouldn't do anything to her! Plus I have my eye on another girl….." Shiro said while looking away from Chie and Chie noticed a slight blush on Shiro's face.

"Ohh…ummm well that girl is a lucky girl to have you as their girlfriend….or boyfriend which ever you prefer to be referred as…"

"Boyfriend would be better because of my condition…..you want me to describe her?"

"Huh?! Why should I listen to you talking about another girl?!"

"Well I'm going to tell you anyway…. She's from my class, she has an upbeat personality….she loves kung-fu, she is a tomboy but she is still cute in her own way…. And I don't know how to tell her how I feel about her, can you help?" Shiro asked while looking at Chie nervously.

Chie was blushing once she heard what Shiro said about her and said "Well you could ask her out…..because she may feel the same way about you…."

Chie found the road interesting to look at, since she was too embarrassed to look at Shiro directly.

'OMG why did I say that! But… I do like Shiro….'

'Should I do it, should I ask Chie out….oh well this might be the only chance I get to ask her….'

"Well I'll use your advice then…" Shiro said while grabbing Chie's chin so that she can tilt her head up to make Chie look at her.

"Satonaka Chie, would you go out with me on a date and be my girlfriend?"

Chie was as red as a tomato once Shiro had said that.

"B-But why would someone like you like a tomboy like me?"

"So what if you're a tomboy? That's what I like about you it suits you." Shiro placed her forehead against Chie's and stared into the brown eyes that she loves.

"So….will you go out with me?"

Chie smiled and kissed Shiro on the lips and felt fireworks go off in her head.

Shiro felt the same once she felt soft lips on her own, she placed her hands on Chie's waist.

Chie broke the kiss, and said "That's your answer…"

Shiro had this goofy smile on her face and asked "Hmmmm…..but that kiss didn't really feel like a 'yes', why don't you give me another?"

Chie felt like there was steam coming out from her ears since she was blushing so much but wrapped her arms around Shiro's neck and leaned in.

They kissed again but this time with tongue. Once Chie's felt Shiro's tongue run across her lips she allowed her tongue in. Once oxygen was needed they broke the kiss and the both of them were panting.

"Well does that seem like a 'yes' to you?" Chie asked and all Shiro did was nod at her while smiling that goofy smile of hers.

"Oh and by the way….you are mine so Rise's special place is mine." Chie said while pinching Shiro's cheek.

"Ouch! Okay! Okay! It's yours!" Shiro exclaimed and Chie let go and Shiro held her now red cheek.

"So you're the jealous type?"

"HUH? NO! I just don't want Rise to steal you away with her idol charm and all….."

"Hehehe, yeah, yeah. But I only have eyes for you Chie."

Shiro kissed Chie's cheek and held her hand.

"Well let's get you home…. I don't want my new girlfriend to get hurt on the way home…" Shiro said while walking towards the direction of Chie's home and how Shiro knew where Chie lived was a mystery.

Once Shiro sent Chie home, she went home too.

Once she opened her house door, Nanako greeted her with a smile.

"Welcome back Big Bro!"

"Hehe, hey Nanako. Where's Minako?"

"She's in your room but there was this pretty girl with her…I think her name was Yukiko!"

"Haha really? Well I'm going to talk to her first then I'll make dinner for all of us."

Shiro walked up to their room and walked in without knocking since it was their room.

"Hey Mina-" Shiro said before she was left speechless at the scene in front of her.

Yukiko was sitting on Minako's lap and the both of them were facing each other and they were making out with their eyes closed.

Minako opened her eyes once she heard Shiro and stopped kissing Yukiko.

"Uhhh…. Shiro you're home…ha ha ha…. Welcome home?"

Yukiko jumped off Minako's lap once she noticed Shiro.

"Wow…. I didn't expect the both of us to get the girls we like on the same day…. Oh yeah what I wanted to tell you was that Chie is my girlfriend now…. I guess Yukiko is yours too now right?"

"U-Ummm Shiro-kun I thought Minako said that you were coming home late?"

"Well I came home as fast as I could since I was excited to tell Minako the news….."

"So you're dating my best friend now?"

Shiro nodded and said "Well I'll leave now, I'm going to cook dinner." And left the room.

"Hahahaha! I can't believe that Shiro is dating Chie and you dating me!

"How is it funny Yukiko?"

"I mean Chie and I are best friends and we have twins as our girlfriend/boyfriend"

"Well I guess you're right it's kinda funny….but I still can't believe that you agreed to be my girlfriend….it's like a dream…"

Earlier in the house

Minako opened the door to her home and Nanako greeted her like how she greeted Shiro.

"Welcome back Big Sis…" Nanako noticed Yukiko with Minako and asked "Big Sis who is this pretty lady?"

"Huh? Pretty?" Yukiko asked and Nanako nodded and she blushed at the compliment.

"Nanako this is Yukiko, she's from my class."

"Nice to meet you Yukiko-san!"

"Nice to meet you too Nanako-chan. And might I say that you're a pretty little girl too."

"Hehehe thank you!"

"Shiro is going to be back late Nanako, are you hungry?"

"*giggles* nope!"

"Well okay then, Yukiko-san and I are going to go up to my room, Nanako."

"Okay I'll tell Big Bro when she gets back!"

Minako patted Nanako's head and left for her room.

In their room

"So what did you want to talk about?" Yukiko asked.

"U-Ummm, do you have anyone that you're interested in Yukiko?"

"Huh?! I-Interested in someone!"

"So are you?"

"Well I do have someone in mind but I do not know if she would accept my feelings…"

"Her? Is it Chie?"

"Huh?! Of course not! Hehehehehe I can't believe you thought that I like Chie! I have someone else in mind….

"Who is it?!" Minako exclaimed while grabbing Yukiko's shoulder and she noticed that she was now taller than Yukiko.

"I can't tell you….it's a secret."

"Uhhh okay then….." Minako look disappointed and let go of Yukiko's shoulders and sat on the couch in her room.

"I could give you a hint though…."

"A hint?"

"Well she transferred here from Tatsumi Port Island….and she has auburn hair…"

'Auburn hair? A girl….there isn't anyone who transferred to Inaba lately…..hey wait a minute?! That's me she's talking about!'

Minako looked at Yukiko with a shocked expression. Yukiko walked forward and sat on Minako's lap.

Minako started blushing once Yukiko did that and wrapped her arms around Yukiko and tried to hide her face from Yukiko by nuzzling her head on Yukiko's shoulder.

"Well that girl has something to tell you…. She likes you too…."

"Oh really? How about she proves it by k-kissing me?"

"KISS?!" Minako's head shot off Yukiko's shoulder and she stared at Yukiko in disbelief.

"Is there something wrong with it?"

"No! No!" Minako then noticed how close their faces were… and leaned in.

Once their lips touched, the both of them felt fireworks go off….

The kiss became heated and Minako took off Yukiko's headband and her hands became tangled in Yukiko's silky black hair.

Minako broke the kiss and said "Hey Yukiko can you remember the tennis team who came to stay at your inn for a few days last year?"

Yukiko nodded and asked "Why are you asking about them?"

"Well I was one of them and you looked cute with your short hair, so you were in your first-year of high school when you greeted us."

"Really?! It's no wonder I found you familiar but I couldn't put a finger on when did I see you before."

"How about we continue?" Minako asked while sliding her hand up and down Yukiko's waist.

"Sure" Yukiko replied while getting comfortable on Minako's lap.

They were making out until Shiro interrupted them.

Present time

"So…will you be my girlfriend Yukiko?" Minako asked while rubbing her neck nervously, it's a habit of her's whenever she's nervous and Shiro had the same habit.

"Of course! You silly girl…. Wasn't us making out obvious that I want to be your girlfriend?"

"Hahaha well that's true…."

The both of them stood next to each other and Yukiko leaned up to kiss Minako on the cheek and Minako had a small blush on her face.

"Hey when did you get taller than me? Yukiko asked while looking up at Minako.

"Hahaha I actually don't know…. I guess we never noticed since we are always together…."

"Yeah it's harder to notice that way."

"Well enough about me, why don't we go down and have dinner? Our uncle won't be home tonight, he's stuck at work. So it's just us and Nanako."

"Won't I be a bother?"

"Hahaha no way! I bet Shiro has already cooked dinner for all of us including you."

"Okay then…."

The both of them went down and Minako was right. There were four bowls of rice and miso soup with a few side dishes on the table.

"I already know that Uncle is not coming home early today from Nanako, but I cooked enough for all of us including Yukiko." Shiro said while wiping her hands on her apron.

"Hehehehehe!" Yukiko started laughing at Shiro's apron since it didn't suit her… it was pink and had the words '#1 chef in the world'

"Hey I know the apron doesn't suit me but its Minako's! Mine is in the laundry….." Shiro knew what Yukiko was laughing at since Junpei did the same thing…

"Ooohhh so my woman is a chef huh?"

"Y-Your woman?!" Minako exclaimed.

"Well you're my girlfriend right?"

Minako nodded dumbly…. "Hahahaha I've missed that face Minako! The only time you have that face was when Mitsuru-Senpai said almost the same thing….Oh crap I shouldn't have said that…."

Shiro saw that Minako was waving her arms around from behind Yukiko in a 'don't tell her' fashion.

Yukiko turned around to face Minako whose eye was twitching angrily…Minako shivered in fear at Yukiko's eerily sweet smile and Yukiko's eyes were closed and her left eye was twitching.

Shiro and Minako noticed a black aura surrounding Yukiko for a second before it disappeared.

Minako raised her hands in front of herself in a 'surrender' pose and said "I can explain!"

Yukiko walked up to Minako and patted her cheek and said "We'll talk about this later." Minako felt really scared at how Yukiko glared at her.

They had totally forgot about Nanako who was sitting on the ground in front of the TV but she was singing JUNE'S song to notice what was going on.

"Well food's ready! Let's eat!" Shiro exclaimed.

Shiro clapped her hands together and bowed to Minako and apologized to her. Minako just patted her sister's head and said that it was fine, Yukiko was going to find out sooner or later.

The four of them sat at the dining table and the aroma from the food was really good.

"Well let's dig in." Shiro said while picking up her chopsticks.

Minako picked up a tamagoyaki and placed it on top of Yukiko's rice.

Shiro did the same thing for Nanako and took some tsukemono and placed it on her rice.

Once Yukiko took a bite of the tamogoyaki, she said "This is really good."

"Hahaha thanks but I learnt cooking from Minako."

"Really? Why don't you cook something for me one day?" Yukiko asked Minako.

"Sure I'll bring a bento to school and we can share it."

"So Nanako, do you like the miso soup?"

"Mhmmm you're the best Big Bro!"

"Hehehe thanks Nanako"

Once they were done eating Yukiko helped Minako wash the dishes.

"Hey you're our guest you shouldn't be doing this."

"Think of this as my thanks for a great dinner."

Minako stood behind Yukiko and wrapped her arms around Yukiko waist and rested her chin on Yukiko's shoulder while washing the dishes.

To say that Yukiko was startled was an understatement, "A-Are y-you sure we should be doing this in front of Nanako?"

"It's fine! Right Nanako!"

"So Big Sis is dating Yukiko-san? Big Sis you're so lucky to have such a pretty girlfriend!"

"See told you so…." Minako kissed Yukiko's cheek and Yukiko started to blush and they were still washing the dishes and once they were done, Minako still kept her arms around Yukiko and whispered "I love you"

Yukiko looked shocked at the confession and craned her neck to get a better look at Minako and said "I love you too." And kissed Minako and Minako returned the kiss with the same amount of passion.

"Hey Big Bro why are you covering my eyes?" Nanako asked Shiro.

"This isn't something kids should see….."

"But I'm not a kid! I can cook and clean the house!" Nanako exclaimed.

The two girls broke the kiss and saw Shiro covering Nanako's eyes.

"Oh so you're an adult then….are you?" Shiro asked Nanako while tickling her.

"Hehehehe Big Bro stop it!" Nanako squealed out.

"Now you have a Big Bro and a Big Sis to take care of you."

"Hehe and I love them both!"

Minako and Shiro blushed at Nanako's confession and Minako let go of Yukiko and walked up to Nanako and looked at Shiro and the both of them nodded to each other.

The both of them bent down and kissed Nanako on her cheeks, Shiro on the right, Minako on the left and the both of them said "We love you too Nanako-chan!"

Yukiko smiled at the scene in front of her but what they did not know was that she took a picture of them kissing Nanako on the cheek.

Shiro picked Nanako up and nuzzled her nose against Nanako's and Nanako giggled.

RING RING

Yukiko's phone was ringing and it was her mother calling and she explained that she was at a friend's house and that she would be home soon.

"I'll send you home Yukiko."

"Well I guess this is good-bye Nanako-chan" Yukiko waved good bye to Nanako and Nanako waved back while smiling.

"Good-bye Yukiko-san!"

Minako and Yukiko walked to the bus stop and Minako sent Yukiko home and once they were at the entrance of the Amagi Inn.

Yukiko kissed Minako's cheek and said her good bye while Minako waved back to her when she was walking into the Inn with a goofy smile on her face.

Tamagoyaki is an egg dish and Tsukemono is salt-pickled cabbage

My next update should be soon, it may be delayed since I am unwell.
