Shadow Yu smiled darkly, "Lets just say, the last leader that came to this world, didn't come out too alive."
"There's more?" Teddie said surprised.
"If you mean more Persona wielders, then yes. Although their journeys have come to an end a while back. In fact I believe you met one on a trip not to long ago." Shadow Yu flipped hair out of his eyes, "But that is beside the point, what I'm sayin is don't trust this guy. He doesn't even know his own priorities all too well."
The group faced Yu who kept looking at the ground.
"You don't care about them at all do you? You just like the power you have over them. And this is a pretty good facade right!? The strong, smart, handsome, caring guy that everyone thinks you are. I'm surprised you haven't snapped yet. And to face facts you see a little bit of yourself in the suspects behind this case right? All self absorbed and insane bastards right? Fighting insanity is hard, but living through it is even harder. The more you push yourself to be who your aren't, the more I'll be there to remind you that all you are is a tiny stain in someone else's world." A maniacal laughter rang after the sentence.
"What do you know about me?" Yu said in a low voice.
"Every thing... And I know that," Shadow Yu grabbed a hold of Naoto and held the sword to her throat, "you wouldn't give a damn if I spilled her blood right here..."
Everyone fell into a panic and rushed to her.
"Stay back! I will drag this blade across her throat if you take one more step!" Everyone stopped. "You wouldn't care if I did this would you?" Yu's shadow sliced her cheek with the tip of the sword. Naoto gave a shrill shriek.
"Or this?" Shadow Yu licked the blood seeping from her cut. "Or maybe even this?" Shadow Yu's hands slipped up her shirt and felt up her bound breasts.
Naoto was crying tears of fear now, "Please, Yu MAKE HIM STOP!"
Yu tightened his hands into fists.
"Come on! ACCEPT THAT YOU ARE A SICK FUCKING BASTARD THAT ONLY CARES ABOUT HIMSELF!" Shadow Yu narrowed his eyes, "Ah I see... It would bother you much more if I used him as a target right?" Shadow Yu gestured to Yosuke.
"H-Huh!? M-me!?" Yosuke pointed to himself.
Shadow Yu gave a sly smile.
"Heh, 'partner'... I always wondered why you chose that specifically. Now I clearly see why you chose it, but I am still not certain. Deep dark secrets like that only your counterpart here would know right?" Naoto still tried desperately to escape.
Yosuke decided to trade places with her. Shadow Yu released Naoto. Naoto hugged Kanji's middle, since he was the nearest, and cried into his shirt. Kanji just let her cry, still in the heat of the moment, he didn't even react to her being there.
"Come on! You gotta break sometime!" Yu's shadow taunted as he sliced Yosuke's side.
"Yu, do something please!... Please." Tears streamed down Chie's face.
Yosuke laid on the ground, gripping his side. The air stung his wound.
"You really are a heartless bastard, huh?" Shadow Yu kicked the downed Yosuke in his side causing him to cry out in pain, "You know you're just as bad as the fucker who's murdering all these people. So for you to test that," Shadow Yu hit everyone's weakness with one snap of his fingers, "I'll give you a choice... You save your friends or you quietly go on your way and tell no one of this."
Yu stood there for a second, he turned quietly and disappeared into the fog.
"S-Sensei..." Teddie said softly.
"H-he left us here!..." Rise struggled to prop herself up on her elbows.
The group was left in a doomed silence, all of them were filled with a mixture of anger, fear, and hopelessness.
I thought he was better than this Yosuke could feel emptiness flow throughout his body. Maybe it was from blood loss combined with this. Actually, it felt as if he was on the verge of passing out.
Yosuke collapsed into the light pool of blood. Darkness was all that Yosuke could see. Is this how it ends? Betrayed by the only person I ever truly cared about? Silence... Sweet, sweet silence...
Sorry XD I have been a fan of cliff hangers at the moment, BUT DO NOT FEAR! I will update soon.
