THE ARENA
"What the hell..." Yu muttered over and over again, like it was the only word in his vocabulary...
PIPIPIPIPIPI
"Hel-"
"Dude, what the EFF was that!?" Yosuke cried "What was with that Captain Ressentiment crap?!"
"I think it's French"
"That's not what I meant!" Yosuke snapped "Just what the hell was that?! We haven't seen anything like that before! Why were we on there?!"
"I honestly...don't know" Yu admitted
"Let me talk to him!"
"Hey! Back off!"
"Come onnnn! I have to tell him something beary important"
"Fine..." Yosuke sighed "Hang on, I'm putting Teddie on"
"Sensei, it's me, Teddie!" Teddie greeted "I finally got to see the Midnight Channel with my own eyes. Now I know exactly what's emotions are resonating with the other side, which are picked up by the TVs over here. It's clear now that it's not being filmed by anyone. Mystery solved! But that...bear we saw on TV wasn't me, and that wasn't really you on the other side either! That wasn't us, those were just pieces of that person's area in the TV World"
"Wait, so you're saying that was someone's world?" Yu questioned "Like how Yukiko had the castle and Kanji had the bathhouse?"
"Yep" Teddie nodded "It could belong to any of the people who were thrown in..."
"Then we'll go in and save them all" Yu stated
"Gotcha! I knew I could count on you Sensei!" Teddie said affectionately
"That's enough, Ted! Gimme the phone!" Yosuke demanded as he snatched it back "So...that world could belong to either Yumi, Ayane or Adachi-san..."
"Maybe it's a combination of all three...it doesn't change the fact that we have save three people..."
"Yeah..." Yosuke sighed
"We'll meet up tomorrow" Yu nodded "See ya"
"See ya" Yosuke said before hung up
Yu was about to place the phone down and turn in for the night but it began to ring once more
"He-"
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT CARNIVORE WHO'S DISCARDED WOMANHOOD CRAP?!"
"Ow" Yu groaned he rubbed his eardrum
"Just what the hell was that!?" Chie shouted
"Someone's own world within the TV" Yu stated
"So...those were Yumi, Ayane or Adachi-san's true feelings?" Chie questioned "Why the hell would they think like...that?"
"I have no idea to be honest with you..." Yu sighed
"Another thing...I tried to call you earlier but the line was busy"
"I was talking to Yosuke" He stated
"Ah...I...I was wondering if you were trying to talk to Yukiko..." Chie muttered "I was trying to call her but she didn't answer..."
"No I...I doubt Kou or Daisuke would answer either" Yu sighed "We'll just...hope to see them tomorrow"
"Yeah" Chie groaned
JUNE 26/ LIMOUSINE
"The pistols that the hijackers were carrying were model guns..." Mitsuru explained to the group "Further more, they claim their memories to be foggy and neither can clearly recall the incident"
"But it was all a distraction for the abduction of the cargo right?" The silver haired man questioned "That's what you told us..."
"Correct" Mitsuru sighed "The stolen cargo's contents were built by the former ergonomics research laboratory, in the course of their research on Shadows...a unit that was sealed away...The Fifth Generation Anti-Shadow Suppression Weapon...Labrys"
"Fifth Generation?" A man in a baseball cap questioned "But Aigis is Seventh Generation..."
"Indeed...that would make Labrys...my older sister" Aigis stated
"According to the files we researched" Fuuka muttered "Labrys was the first model equipped with an artificial personality"
"So in other words..." A teenaged woman with a white choker around her neck muttered
"She has a heart...?" Mitsuru asked
"I wouldn't say that" Fuuka denied "She apprears to have been used for gathering operation data, rather than actual field use."
"What else do we know?" Mitsuru asked
"It says she wasn't equipped with firearms, but...special equipment instead" Fuuka read "It doesn't say what, though..."
...
"Aigis" Mitsuru said "It's possible that this situation may require combat, are you okay with that?"
"What you are asking is, should it come down to it, could I kill Labrys, my older sister, with my own hands...correct?" Aigis questioned "Thank you for your concern, but I will be fine. I understand as I too, am a weapon with a heart, capable of using a Persona. If I were controlled by someone and put to misuse...and someone was hurt because of that, it would be very painful...but this is why I absolutely must save Labrys!"
"I see..." Mitsuru smiled "We're about to arrive, Akihiko, Yamagishi, Aigis, Iori, Amada, Takeba, get ready"
...
"A Limo?" Yu muttered as the long vehicle drove past him "Who drives a limo in Inaba?...Never mind, I gotta meet the others already"
...
"Um...are we not conducting an undercover operation?" Aigis asked
"Yes" Mitsuru nodded
"For an undercover mission, do you not need to conceal your personnel and vehicles?" Aigis questioned "May I say something that I've been meaning to say for a while now?"
"No" Mitsuru said firmly "All I asked was with a car with enough space"
"It looks like we're popular with the locals" Junpei noted as tons of camera flashes went off outside
"Move us to another location, immediantly!" Mitsuru demanded
JUNKYARD
"We should we out of the public eye here" Mitsuru stated as she and the group exited the limo
"Mitsuru-san, someone is approaching us" Aigis noted
"Yes" Mitsuru nodded "I told him to meet us here...hello, Katsuya"
"Mitsuru-san, Aigis-san" Katsuya greeted "I see you brought everyone..."
"Hey...uh, sorry about Nanjo, man..." Junpei said "We know you two were close"
...
"Indeed" Katsuya nodded "And if Minazuki is here, I suspect we'll find him in the TV world..."
"A whole other reality inside a TV?" Ken Amada question, Koromaru barking by his side
"It seems insane I know, but it is true...I experienced it myself" Katsuya stated as he pushed up his glasses
...
"I see, then we should enter using that large TV on the junk pile" Aigis stated as she walked towards it, gently placing her fingertips on it, which slid right through like she put her hand in a bucket of water
"Whoa!" Junpei cried out
"Could there really be..?" Yukari questioned
"How is it? Do you feel anything?" Mitsuru questioned
"No, I...wait!" Aigis interrupted herself "I feel...a reaction with a personality module, just like mine!"
"Personality Module?" Akihiko questioned
"Since this is the first time I've felt it, I can't say with 100% certainty...but the probability seems high..."
"I see...in that case..." Mitsuru muttered
JUNES
"Is it...just us?" Yu questioned as he sat by the table with Yosuke, Kanji, Chie, Teddie and Rise
"It looks that way" Yosuke sighed "I've tried calling Yukiko, Kou and Daisuke but they're having none of it
"This sucks dude...some love triangle bullshit ain't a good reason to go and abandon the Investigation Team" Kanji grunted
"We can't get a hold of them...so there's nothing we can do" Yosuke sighed
...
"No...we have to get them" Yu stated
"Yeah..." Chie nodded "People's lives are at stake...we need everyone"
"You're right, let's go to their homes...If you two are okay with it" Yosuke suggested
JUNKYARD
"We aren't going in right away?!" Akihiko cried
"You still haven't changed, have you?" Mitsuru sighed "We still don't have a good grasp on the situation inside, we must secure a method of return and..."
"So what?" Akihiko questioned "In order to get Labrys out, someone has to go in right?"
"Yes, well..." Mitsuru muttered
"Whoever this Minazuki guy is, he hijacked a plane just to get to her and throw her inside the TV, but that might not be their endgame, if we wait around, we're probably gonna pay for it.
...
We're different from how we were two years ago...we chose to fight shadows as professionals, we chose this mission ourselves. I found my resolves. I'm ready to put my life on the line. That's why I traveled around the world to acquire true strength. And now, when push comes to shove, you're hesitating?"
...
"When Mitsuru-san finds herself in charge, her strategies naturally take the safety of those involved into careful consideration..." Aigis noted to herself "Akihiko-san's opinions may be a bit strong, but they are very convincing. Composure and caution are connected but sometimes they become timid. Passion and courage are also connected, and rarely, they bceome recklessness...Mitsuru-san and Akihiko-san...if each of their ideals were to clash without reservations, that would be a sight...yet, seeing those two...make me feel at ease"
"Very well" Mitsuru sighed
"Ma'am" Katsuya cut in "May I suggest something?"
AMAGI INN
"Oh hello Chie, dear!" Yukiko's mother greeted "Looking for Yukiko?"
"Yes Ma'am" Chie nodded
"Well, I'm afraid she's not here" Yukiko's mother sighed "In fact...she hasn't come home in the last few days"
"What?!" Yu questioned
"Yes, it is troubling, honestly I was starting to think of calling the Police..." Yukiko's mother revealed "But she disappeared once...and she came back, maybe I'll leave it another day or so..."
"You don't think..." Chie muttered to Yu, just before his phone began to ring
"Hello?" Yu greeted
"Dude, Ichijo's missing!" Kanji cried out "His family said they ain't seen him in a few days. Yosuke-Senpai checked with Nagase-Senpai's family and they ain't seen him either!"
"Shit...shit!" Yu panicked
"What's wrong?" Chie asked
"Yukiko's missing too..." Yu told Kanji
"Oh shit..." Kanji muttered
"Get Yosuke and come to Junes, ASAP" Yu called
"Yeah" Was Kanji's simple responce before hanging up
"Kou and Daisuke are missing too..." Yu informed Chie
"Oh no..." She whispered...
"Come on, we need to get over there now!" Yu stated before the pair took off
JUNKYARD
"I don't get this" Junpei grumbled
"Katsuya brings up a fair point" Mitsuru stated "Labrys is almost certainly in there, but we don't know if Minazuki is"
"If he's not, then we must keep some of you out here in the event that he attempts an attack" Katsuya said
"Me, Aigis and Mitsuru will head in" Akihiko told "You guys stay here"
"Man, this whole journey was for nothing" Junpei groaned
"Moron" Yukari called out "If Sho Minazuki shows up, we're here to stop him!"
"That's right" Ken nodded "Otherwise, he could sneak attack Mitsuru-senpai and the others"
"Us three will be plenty" Mitsuru claimed "We'll rescue Labrys, no problem"
JUNES
"Let's head in!" Yu called out as he practically leapt into the TV World
"Dude, ease off with the noise!" Yosuke cried as he followed Yu in "You don't want people to see us do you?"
"Hey, is it me or does it seem different?" Kanji questioned as the group, the white void they usually plummeted into was now pitch black
"What's going on Teddie?" Chie questioned
"Wheee!" The bear called out
"W-What's going on?!" Rise cried "Is this how it normally is?!"
"No!" Yu shouted "But we can't stop, we just gotta go with it!"
...
"Hehehe...looks like the stage is set. The P-1 Grand Prix is officially open!"
"Whose voice was that?!" Chie asked
"Ted, was that you?" Kanji asked
"No!" Teddie denied
"It sounded just like you!" Yosuke snapped as they group continued to fall
"It wasn't me!" Teddie cried "It must've been that other bear in the ca-"
Before Teddie could finish, the group was enveloped in a bright white light, blinding them and shutting out all their senses...
...
"Ugh..." Yu groaned as he pulled himself, his head raising up as he sat uo. Observing his surroundings, he saw that he was sitting at his desk in his classroom "What's going on?...Did I fall asleep?"
"I'm in my classroom...was I dreaming?" Yu groaned as he rubbed his head "What...was I dreaming about?"
His train of thoughts were interrupted by large cheer from outside, gazing out, he saw several students excitedly pacing around outside. Yu rushed down outside to see what the commotion was about, eventually joining the pack of students, just when he was about to question what was going on, he spotted what seemed to be a pack of TV's piled on top of each other
"What the...?" Yu questioned before an Image appeared on the TV screen
"Greetings! Boys and Girls of Yasogami! Is everybody ready?! The P-1 Grand Prix is about to start!"
"Rise?!" Yu questioned as the girl appeared on the TV screen, decked out in a headset "What's going on?"
"Oh! Our challenger has already made his appearance! Just what I expect from Yu-senpai! He's really got that fighting spirit!"
"W-What?" Yu questioned, rubbing his head as the crowd of students cheered him on
"Oh" So~rry! You prefer the other one, don't cha?!" Rise laughed "The Dragon Lover with a God Complex!"
Now he remembered
"I remember..." Yu muttered "And in all honesty, that name isn't so bad when compared to the others..."
"Weeeeeeell, anyway..." Rise hummed "First up, General Teddie had a few words for everybody!"
"Wait...Teddie?!" Yu questioned as the familiar bear appeared on screen, donned in a hat and cape "No...that's the other one, the one we saw on the Midnight Channel!"
"The day has finally come!" General Teddie laughed "Our beary own P-1 Grand Prix is now...OPEN!"
"What is this?!" Yu questioned as the crowd erupted once more "Just...whose world inside the TV is this?!"
WHISTLE
Yu covered his ears to protect them against the deafening screech, twisting his head around, he found the literal whistle blower
"What's goin' on here? Pilin' up a buncha TV's in fronta the buildin'...where the heck did they come from?" The owner of the whistle asked "Geez...who thought it was a good idea to be causin' such a commotion at school?"
Yu's eyes inspected the woman, he didn't recognize her but she was decked out in Yasogami High uniform and had silver hair and eyes, not too dissimilar to his own
"As the Student Council President, I never approved this Grand Prix thing!" She stated
"Student Council President?" Yu questioned "I've never seen her before...maybe because I've only been here for three months..."
"Oi, Dragon-Lover Complex guy!" She called out
"Y-Yes?!" Yu questioned
"Aren't you one 'a these contestants in the Grand Prix?!" She asked
"Yes...sort of..." Yu sighed "It's not by choice"
"Izzat broadcast comin' from inside the school?!" She snapped "Hurry up'n get rid'a this stuff already! It's makin' such a ruckus that student won't be able ta get home on time!"
...
"That...that is true" Yu muttered
"Oh, no~o, so scary!" Rise mocked as she appeared on the screen once again "Risette...really hates that girl
...
Alright everyone! Get rid of miss sour-puss over there!"
"What's going on?" Yu repeated for what seemed like the tenth time as he faced the now-stone faced crowd "None of them look like they even heard what the president said...Rise! What's going on here?!"
She didn't respond, and for a second, the only sounds he could hear were of the approaching students and the president letting out a sigh
"I warned ya..." She groaned before slamming a charging student into the ground, another quickly followed, and another...and so on until they eventually formed a pile
"Whoa..." Yu muttered
"I ain't gonna say it twice!" She snapped at him "Get rid'a this stuff right now!"
"W-Why me?" Yu questioned
"Well...you're one 'a the contestants ain't ya?!" She snapped again
"If that didn't work..." Rise muttered as she appeared onscreen again "Then how about..."
"Hey, look out!" Yu cried as he pulled the Student Council President away from the pile of collapsing TV's. However, one was heading straight for him and he didn't have time to dodge
However, Izanagi proceeded to take care of it, appearing to slice the appliance in half before it fell on his master
"Izanagi..." Yu muttered
"H-Hey...what was that you just did?!" She cried
"I was able to summon my Persona..." Yu muttered "So this must mean...I'm inside the TV-"
"You should have just died" Rise growled
...
"You're not really Rise...are you?" Yu glared as the screen
"It doesn't matter" She laughed him off "Go ahead and protect that girl with ye o'mighty god complex"
"What's that supposed to mean?" Yu questioned before the screen turned off "Wait!2
"That girl was in the announcement room, right...?" Miss President questioned "Her foolin' around like this...I'm definitely gonna put a stop to it...!"
"Ah,,w-wait!" Yu called out as the girl took off "This is bad, it doesn't matter how strong she is, she doesn't have a Persona!
...
W-Wait...could this be...her..."
"Miss President! Wait!" Yu shouted as he pursued her
"Oh?" She muttered before stopping and turning to him with a big smile "Thanks a bunch...for earlier. You were pretty cool. Mr Dragon-Lover God Complex!"
...
"My name is Yu!" He told her before she ran off
...
"Yasogami High School...that was definitely on the map of Inaba...it's been completely recreated here...is this truly inside the TV?" Mitsuru questioned as she overlooked the school
MUSIC ROOM
"This is a school's...music room" Aigis muttered as she overlooked the piano laid down in the far left "A blackboard, portraits, a music stand, a piano...yet my sensors are detecting slight fluctuations in the walls and the floor...nothing he as it seems...I know of a place like this...another world were shadows ran rampant..."
...
"Hmm?" She questioned as TV in the corner of the room began to flicker on
"I discovered an unknown, yet bewitching babe!" General Teddie laughed as he appeared "Un-UNEXPECTED! UN! UN! UN! UNEXPECTED! UNEX-UN-UN-UN-UN-UN-UN-CASE 04, UNEXPECTED INTRUDER, ENTERING ELIMINATION PROCESS!"
"Whoa!"
CRASH
"Ow...the hell? Did the floor just open up?"
"A normal...human" Aigis muttered as the boy pulled himself up
"Never seen you before..." he hummed
"I apologize...my appeareance must seem strange to a normal person" Aigis stated "I am Aigis...I have blue eyes, blonde hair and gatling cannons"
...
"Huh?"
"I'm sorry, I was trying out my prepared explanations for students...please forget that" Aigis apologized
"I don't really get it" He shrugged "I'm Daisuke Nagase...so, are you my opponent or what?"
"Opponent?" Aigis questioned "Why would I fight you Nagase-san?"
"One on one it is then" Daisuke grunted
"But why? This our first meeting Nagase-san, I have no reason to fight you" Aigis claimed
"Oh? But isn't this why we're here?" Daisuke questioned
"Why...we're here? What do you mean?" Aigis asked "To start with, where are we exactly, If you know Nagase-san, then..."
"Would you just shut up?!" Daisuke snapped, shocking the girl "You need to shut your damn yap! You glorified toaster! Nagase-san huh?! I don't think some fake girl should be getting all friendly!"
...
"Machine...Fake Girl...since I am not wearing clothing camouflage, that would be the natural reaction to seeing my appearance...however...it still...pains my heart"
"What's the matter? If you gonna hit first..." Daisuke growled before summoning his Persona "Then I will! Fujin!"
"A Persona!" Aigis gasped as she dodged the blow "If he possess' one then...we should have considered the possibility of other Persona users over here!"
"Dodged it, eh?" Daisuke scoffed before his Persona charged again "How about this then?!"
"Athena!" Aigis cried out as her own Persona arose to defend her
"A Persona?!" Daisuke cried "Even though you're just a fake girl, you got a Persona, huh? Guess that means you a fake heart too, right?! I'll show you the power of a real Persona!"
LOCKERS
"Damn it...I'm totally lost" Yosuke grumbled "This place is inside the TV right? But this isn't the real Yasogami High...the layout's completely different"
"Oh, Yosuke? What's wrong? Are chasing after some young ladie's bear-hind?"
"Teddie!" Yosuke cried out as the Bear appeared on a monitor
"You're a contestant in the P-1 Grand Prix! So don't even think about it!"
"Listen, you!" Yosuke snapped before a explosion occured, causing the place to fill up with smoke "W-What the?!"
...
"What's wrong, got nothing to do?" Came a mocking voice "Shame...but that's how it always is here in the boonies, right?"
"What the...no way" Yosuke gulped, as the approaching fog began to fade away, revealing the figure who just spoke "How can you be here?!"
"What's wrong? Not happy to see me?" He laughed "Of course you're not...you're never happy in this shitty little town"
Yosuke could only stare agape, as somehow, his shadow stood before him
GYM
"Where is...damn it!" Chie cursed as she ran down the hallway "The layout's completely screwed over! Where the hell is everything?!"
Chie continued her tyrade, searching for anything and anyone. Before finding a door that lead to the gym. Chairs were stacked upon chairs around the floor, some piles leading up to the roof, however, what really caught her eye was the girl standing dead center in the middle of the floor
"Yukiko!" Chie cried out as she ran over
"C-Chie" Yukiko stuttered
"Yukiko, I'm so glad you're safe!" Chie smiled in relief
"What do you want, thief" Yukiko spat
...
"Yukiko..." Chie muttered
"The one thing I truly wanted in this world...and you took it" Yukiko growled "Just like the selfish cow that you are!"
"Yukiko, it's not like that!" Chie tried to defend
"Well, I suppose it's good for you after all! You finally found someone pathetic enough who will love you!" Yukiko mocked "What kind of man must Yu-kun really be if he'd lust after garbage like you instead of me?!
...
I loved him..."
"I know you did...I'm sorry" Chie sniffed as tears stung her eyes "I...I don't want our friendship to end like this, Yukiko!"
"Oh don't worry, it won't" Yukiko chuckled "It will end because you can't be friends with a dead person, Persona!"
"Yukiko, wait!" Chie gasped as Yukiko summoned Konohana-Sakuya
"Defend yourself Chie!" Yukiko shouted as she charged foward
SCHOOL ENTRANCE
"There's no response from my communicator...the noise here is sever" Mitsuru muttered "In any event, we still don't have enough information about this world. I've tried searching for the enemy but...these surrounding building...and these students, aren't real! Artemisia can contact other Persona users...I tried to contact Akihiko right now and the nearby students...turned into silhouettes...as long as they don't react rashly, they'll be okay...Akihiko and-"
MUSIC ROOM
"Aigis!" Daisuke laughed as the Android girl was blown back into the wall "How'd you like my Fujin's wind?! Have as much as you want, you damn machine!"
The girl did not respond, rather, just fall onto the ground
"Well aren't you a sorry sight, Ms. Mechanical Doll!" Daisuke mocked
"It is certainly true that I am not human...yet, I still feel pain inside my heart...that would only be natural...
"Heh..."
"What's so funny?!" Daisuke snapped
"Nothing..." Aigis claimed "I just thought it was funny that I had become so human without realizing it..."
"When he called me a fake...it pained me...in my heart...my heartache is real!"
"Human?!" Daisuke roared "You're nothing but a manufactured weapon! Don't forget! The whole reason you have a heart in the first place was so you could obtain a Persona!"
...
"Strange...come to think of it, he was very calm when he first saw me...and he said he didn't recognize me" Aigis recalled "And yet his words just now were as if he knew, in detail, of my function as a weapon...it's almost as if he became another person halfway through...what made Nagase-san change?"
"That's it, I'm gonna make you into scrap metal!" Daisuke shouted, reeling back his fist
Which was promptly caught by Aigis
"W-What the?!" Daisuke cried as Aigis began to squeeze his hand "Where did she get this strength?!"
"Nagase-san...I do not know what has happened to you, however, since you are a Persona user and my primary abilities were not enought to deal with you, I have made the judgement that you are dangerous. I am sorry, but...I can no longer hold back against you"
ORGIA MODE!
"What the hell?!" Daisuke cried as she was blown back as the girl seemed to power up. He opened his eyes, only to find her flying towards him
"I would like you have my special attack" She stated flatly
MEGIDO FIRE EX!
And with that, Daisuke was blasted across the room and into the wall
...
"Please snap out of it, Nagase-san!"
"Ugh...damn it, that hurt" Daisuke groaned
"I'm glad, I was worried that I had not adjusted enough for opponent who could use a Persona" Aigis stated "But you appear to be okay!"
...
"Huh?" Daisuke questioned as he saw that Aigis was holding him, bridal style. "W-Why are you carrying me like that?!"
"Is this not the spousal method of carrying?" Aigis questioned
"No! It's bridal method!" He shouted, but then began to wonder "Is it? Aren't they both the same thing?...A-Anyway, put me down!"
...
"I lost...huh?" He questioned as Aigis released him "I guess the big leagues are pretty rough..."
"Nagase-san, are you okay? That sounded like something Akihiko-san would say" Aigis asked
"Who the hell is Akihiko?" Daisuke questioned "And lay off with the Nagase-san, just Daisuke is fine"
"I may call you...Daisuke-san?" Aigis wondered "Even though I am a fake girl..."
"Fake what?" Daisuke asked "I got no idea what you are talking about, you look a little different, that's all
...
What's wrong?"
"Nothing..." Aigis stated with a small smile "Once again...it sems that I really have become Human"
"Daisuke-san...doesn't seem to recall anything from earlier" She noted "Are you...the real Daisuke-san, I wonder...?"
"Anyway...are the others here?" Daisuke questioned "If you beat me...then good luck with them"
"Must I fight more people from here on?" Aigis questioned
"Yeah...it's a tournament" Daisuke sighed "I don't really get it myself, but Teddie showed up on the TV screen and explained that only one can win...I just wanna get outta here...wait, so Teddie didn't send you here to fight me?"
"Teddie?" Aigis questioned "Daisuke-san, why is a fighting tournament being held here? How man people will be up ahead?"
"Huh?" Daisuke questioned "So you're really...not...some..."
"Daisuke-san!" Aigis called out before the boy collapsed
"I guess, I'm too beat to carry on..." Daisuke groaned "Hey...Aigis, right?...Find my buddy Kou, he's..."
"He's outcold..." Aigis observed "But there are no abnormalities in is pulse...he should be find so I'll let him rest"
"INTRUDERES ARE PERSONA USERS. DUE TO DIFFICULTIES IN ELIMINATION; HTYE WILL BE ACKNOWLEDGED AS VALID TARGETS
...
Woohoo! What a fox! You want to join in our fun, huh? Since your fighting spirit is so grizzly, how about a warm welcome?"
"As I suspected, you must be Teddie" Aigis noted
"Teddie? Non, non, mademoiselle! It's GENERAL Teddie!" He stated "Since you're cutting in, you don't know who I am. But from now on, remember my name bear-y well! I'll be waiting for you, in the next arena!"
"Next Arena?...So I will have to the fight the others Daisuke-san mentioned?" Aigis questioned "No matter...my older sister, Labrys...I made it my mission to find her, no matter what!...Please wait for my return, Daisuke-san"
LOCKERS
"Oooh yeah! It's finally about to start! The P-1 Grand Prix" Rise cheered "Two Yosuke-Senpai's are going to duke it out! It's one on one so let's see who has the right to call himself the real Yosuke!"
"You...how the hell are you here?!" Yosuke snapped
"Your Mom"
"What?!"
"Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer" Shadow Yosuke chuckled
"How...Yu defeated you! You became my Persona!" Yosuke snapped
"That's right! Your little silver haired buddy saved the day...so great when he does that" Shadow Yosuke laughed "He bails you out a lot, huh?"
"What are you saying?" Yosuke growled
"I'm saying that you can't do jack shit without him" Shadow Yosuke scoffed "Even now, when you had the whole bro moment, you know he's far superior"
"If you're trying to rattle me, it won't work" Yosuke growled
"He managed to woo Satonaka in, what? A month and a half? That's impressive. Getting a girlfriend that quick" Shadow Yosuke whistled "And shit, he's swapping spit with her when we didn't get close to Saki"
"You stop right there!" Yosuke demanded "I won't have you talking about Saki like that!"
"Ooh, whatcha gonna do, huh?" Shadow Yosuke laughed
"I'll tell you what I'll do, Persona!" Yosuke roared as he summoned Jiraiya
"Hell, not a bad idea, maybe I'll try it out for myself!" Shadow Yosuke sneered "Persona!"
"W-What?!" Yosuke questioned as the other him summoned an identical Persona "That's...impossible!"
"Ain't looking so impossible from where I'm standing" The Shadow mocked
...
"Damn you..." Yosuke cursed as he pulled out his Naito "Come on! Bring it!"
"Alright then!" The Shadow laughed as it charged forward, with it's Jiraiya swinging down. Yosuke swiflty rolled to the side to avoid it
"Damn it...how's this possible?" Yosuke questioned "Persona's and Shadows, they're practically one and the same...and yet, he's got a..."
"This would be a lot faster if you just gave up" Shadow Yosuke laughed "Come on, Yu's not coming to save you...you know you can't win"
"I can beat you, all by myself!" Yosuke roared
"Bullshit! You're nothing more than a two-bit side character!" Shadow Yosuke snapped as it charged forward and his Jiraiya took another swing which was blocked by the real Jiraiya "You got a bit stronger, so what?! It was all thanks to him! You're just a little sheep, and Yu is the shepard!"
"Yu has nothing to do with this!" Yosuke yelled as he slashed away with his Naito, cutting the Shadow's arm. The Shadow responded with a knee to the gut that knocked Yosuke over
"Uh-Oh! Looks like Yosuke-Senpai's better verbal attack hit Yosuke-Senpai for massive damage!" Rise's voice rang through
"Does it still piss you off?" The Shadow chuckled "All you've been through in the past few months, and you still can't beat me...you shouldn't be too surprised though, it's impossible to improve yourself...a little runt like you has no reedeming qualities. You're weak...AND THE WEAK ARE EATEN BY THE STRONG!"
The Shadow continued to laugh at he pathetic look on his true self's face, before lifting his foot up, intending to crush his skull
"I think it's about time I stop comparing myself to other people..." Yosuke muttered
"Huh?" The Shadow questioned
"Yeah...I know..." Yosuke mumbled as tears slightly stinged his eyes "I know that despite everything, despite what I say, what he says...I'll always be second best to him...at everything. But that doesn' mean...I won't get stronger! It doesn't mean I need him for everything! If you were really me, then you would know that!"
"What?!" Shadow Yosuke shouted before a gust of wind from Jiraiya made him stumble a bit, by the time he regained his footing. Yosuke had stabbed one of the Naito, straight through the Shadow's head
"Huh?! Amazing!" Rise cried out as she appeared on a monitor "With one magnificent blow, the real Yosuke-Senpai turned the tables"
Yosuke ignored her, focusing on the Shadow. Whoses eyes turned blank and proceeded to dissolve into a black goo
"What the?!" Yosuke gurgled as the Shadow literally melted away and specks of small golden lights flew up into the air
"Bear-ied the hatchet with yourself, Yosuke?" General Teddie mocked
"Teddie!" Yosuke growled
"C'mon, further inside the school, your next fight is waiting!"
"You're not actually Teddie...who are you?!" Yosuke questioned
"Non! Non! We will not be taking any questions!" General Teddie laughed before the feed cut out
"Damn it...I don't get this" Yosuke groaned "Was that really my Shadow? How could he use a Persona? Didn't he become my Persona? Damn it...if only...no, I don't...need him for everything...I-"
CLINK
"What the?!" Yosuke called out as his Persona appeared before him, and then morphed into a new shape. Now blue in color with a large circular ring around his body as well as around his neck. It now donned a pair of sunglasses, as well as head of read hair that spiralled upwards like flames
Yosuke's strong will that allowed him to accept and overcome his weakness had awakened his heart's true power...His Persona has been reborn! Jiraiya has transfigured into Susano-o!
"Is this...my power?" Yosuke questioned "All because I accepted it...that I'm not as good as Yu?"
"You're just a little sheep, and Yu is the Shepard!"
"Why am I thinking about that?" Yosuke asked himself as he clutched his head "There's no time for this...I'm gonna put an end to this Grand Prix!"
HALLWAY
"Another Invisible wall" Aigis noted "These walls have been around since I left the music room, restricting me to a certain route...they are likely guiding me to my next oppenent. It seems the organizer of this tournament wishes me to descend these stairs..."
Aigis proceeded to do just that, however, when she was halfway down, she heard footsteps from behind her and turned around, catching a glimpse of someone
"Excuse me!" Aigis called as she ran back up
"What?" The Girl she saw questioned as she turned around "Can't ya see I'm in a hurry?"
"She passed directly through an invisible wall!" Aigis noted
"May I speak with you for a moment?" Aigis asked "Just who are you?"
"Me? I'm the Student Council President of this here school!" She stated "Who're you? You don't look like a student. That's a funny lookin' costume you got on there...hey, are you one'a them participants in that P-Whatever Grand Prix that's makin' such a mess?!"
"No" Aigis flatly denied
"Alright then, I'm goin' ahead!" Miss President stated "I'd be pretty useless as the Student Council President if I couldn't put a stop to this mess!"
"Please wait!" Aigis called out to her as she attempted to pursue her but slammed into an invisible wall "Wait! Please don't go! SISTER!"
"I sensed her personality module...that was...Labrys" Aigis noted "But...she appeared to be...human?"
CLASSROOM
"Ugh...how'd this happen? I can't breath in here!" The Bear groaned before peering out "Where am I? A classroom? But the entrance was..."
Teddie continued to complain, his body began to deflate as he went on, to the point where he floated out between a gap when he was done
"Huh? I was in a locker?!" He cried out before his body returned to normal "Who locked me up in here?"
"There you are!" Came the voice of Miss President, standing in the doorway with her hands on her hips "You're the organizer of this event, ain't ya!"
"Event organizer, what are you talking about?" Teddie questioned before noticing the girl "W-Whoa! What a babe!"
"Don't play dumb with me!" She snapped as she pointed to a nearby TV suspended from the ceiling "That's you, ain't it?"
"TV?" Teddie questioned before the screen fizzed on
"The Desperate Fighting Program amongst High School Students! A new legend is about to begin!"
"May the Manliest of all men, come on down!" General Teddie shouted
"W-W-W-What the heck is this?!" Teddie cried "That weird guy looks just like me!"
"Don't think you're gonna talk your way outta this one!" Miss President snapped
"Y-You're wron-Just take a bear-y good look! That guy's..." Teddie tried to defend
"You...what you're doing?" General Teddie growled
"So you're the one who stuffed me in here!" Teddie shouted "On top of that, you're violating my image rights!"
"I'll leave you two alone for now" General Teddie gurgled "But I'll make sure to delibearate on some counter-measures..."
"Ahh, wait!" Teddie cried out as the screen turned off
"This some kinda joke?" She growled
"Y-You've got to bear-lieve me!" Teddie tried to plead "But...who are you anyway?"
"Who am I?" She questioned "I'm this School's Student Council President! Geez...how many times do I gotta explain that today?"
"President?" Teddie questioned "Could a cutie pie like you really be such an important person at the school Yosuke and the others go to?"
"You're wrong, I ain't important!" She claimed "I was chosen by everybody to be the representative for the students...to work for their sake as President! That's how it is, and that's why puttin' a stop to this craziness is my job!"
"What modesty! A pretty girl, chosen by her peers, who works her fingers to the bone for the common people?! You're a goddess! I've just met a goddess!" Teddie yelped happily "Miss President, I'm going to go with you!"
"What's this, all of a sudden?" Miss President asked
"I've made my decision!" Teddie stated "I'm going to protect you from now on, Miss President! After all, a princess has gotta have a knight to protect her, y'know!"
"My Knight...?" She questioned "But you're the one who caused all'a this in the first place!"
"I told you, you're wrong! Fine! We'll do it like this then! We're gonna meet face to face with that fake and I'll get the real story out of him!" Teddie roared "I'll protect you from that evil impostor, my princess...and then, at the end, a kiss..."
"Either way, I guess we're headin' to the announcement room..." She sighed "Alright! Let's get goin' then!"
"Yeah! I'd follow you anywhere Miss President!" Teddie said as he began to skip alongside her
FIRST FLOOR HALLWAY
"Compared to earlier, my senses are much more clear...everything is spreading out before me" Mitsuru noted as she summoned her Persona "I recognize these two reactions very well...Akihiko and Aigis...it's seems they're both still safe...well...since Aigis is closer, I'll try and contact her first...Aigis...Aigis...! Can you hear me? Aigis!"
"Mitsuru-san!" Aigis cried "I was finally able to establish contact...! Are you with Akihiko-san?"
"No, I'm alone. However, I've confirmed his safety, so I'd like you to give me a report on the current situation."
...
"I see" Mitsuru nodded as Aigis explained "So there are several other Persona users besides us...and invisible walls, in addition to that...this silly little event is a much larger nuisance than I thought..."
"Yes, it appears that we have no choice but to obey the rules at the time...oh, and one more thing" Aigis remembered "Some time ago, I caught sight of Labrys"
"What?!" Mitsuru gasped "Is that true?"
"Yes...however, I lost sight of her..." Aigis sighed "To all outward appearances, she is a human being, however, with just a small amount of contact I had with her body...I felt the reaction from a Personality Module! There's no doubt in my mind, that girl is Labrys..."
"I see..." Mitsuru muttered
"Shall we try and meet up?" Aigis questioned
"No. Don't worry about meeting up for now. Under the rules, if we were to try and co-operate, we would most likely end up fighting amongst ourselves."
"Understood"
"We still don't know exactly how Labrys s connected to all this" Mitsuru declared "Be very careful!"
"You too, Mitsuru-san" Aigis smiled
"Now then..." Mitsuru sighed as she broke contact "I'll try contacting Aki-"
She stopped in both words and actions as she heard footsteps, turning around, she faced the noise maker
"Who are you?" The young girl questioned
"Do not be alarmed" Mitsuru stated "I'm not your enemy. I'm a Persona user..."
"Really?" She asked "Suou-san told us there were more out there..."
"You know Katsuya?" Mitsuru questioned "Are you one of the Persona users from Inaba?"
"Yeah..." She mumbled "I'm...Rise..."
"I see then..." Mitsuru nodded "There's no need to be alarmed, I-"
"Why are two just standing there?"
"Huh?" Rise questioned as she turned around, facing ... "Oh, it's only Yu-senpai"
...
"Something's wrong" Mitsuru muttered
"Suppose there's nothing you can do anyway..." Yu sneered "There's nothing any of you, beside Chie, can do with without me"
"Huh?" Rise questioned
"Get back!" Mitsuru called "That boy isn't human!"
"What are you talking about?" Rise questioned "That's my Senpai!"
"Yeah" Yu laughed as he unsheathed his sword
"Yu-senpai?" Rise questioned
"Less talk..." Yu laughed, lifting up his head to reveal bright yellow eyes "More dying..."
JUNKYARD
"Man, this is such bullcrap..." Junpei moaned as he kicked a rock "Why didn't we go in with the rest of 'em?"
"I already explained, Minazuki could be baiting us" Katsuya re-explained "It's possible that he intends to launch an assault against us..."
"So we're stationed here to make sure he doesn't come after them" Fuuka finished
"But even so, how would he know where we were?" Junpei asked
"We must assume that he has eyes everywhere..." Katsuya admitted as he pushed up his glasses
"Man, this whole TV world stuff makes my head hurt..." Junpei groaned "I swear, Ken had better come back with some answers from the Gas Station attendant"
"Speaking of..." Katsuya noted as the boy had returned
"Great, did you ask the guy?" Junpei asked
"He wasn't there" Ken shrugged
"Aw, come on..." Junpei groaned
CLASSROOM
"So...this is a real man's fight eh?"
"Yeah..." Akihiko smiled "I don't know you are kid, but I get the feeling the only way we'll get to know each other better is fist to fist!"
"Hell yeah!" Kanji roared, picking up a nearby chair to use as a weapon
HALLWAY
"Damn it..." Yu groaned as he ran along another hallway "Miss President, where are you?"
"None of that is true!" A voice rang from behind a door he just passed
"That voice...!" Yu recalled as he grinded to a halt "Yumi!"
And then, just as he grabbed the door handle, he held the words he dreaded
"You're not me!"
"Yumi, No!" Yu shouted as he practically jumped through the door, arriving before Yumi and her Shadow
"Yu...ku-" Yumi began to take notice before feeling feint
"Yumi!" Yu cried out before catching the girl before she collapsed "Yumi..."
"Well now..." Shadow Yumi chuckled as it began to morph "If it isn't the little heartbreaker!"
"Don't worry..." Yu said to the girl as she laid her down over in the corner of the room "I'll stop her..."
With that, he stood up and turned to face the Shadow, uttering only one word
"Persona"
GYM
"Yukiko, please stop!" Chie pleaded for what seemed like the fortith time, but the girl continued to attack
"Agi!" Yukiko called out as Konohana-Sakuya fired a ball of fire which Chie managed to dodge by the skin of her teeth
"Yukiko..." Chie muttered "I don't have a choice...I have to fight back..."
"What's wrong?! Waiting on your little boyfriend to come and save you?!" Yukiko mocked as her Persona fired several more blasts "You're just standing there, like a moth to a flame"
"I don't want to fight you..." Chie claimed "But...I will if I have to!"
"So you're going to give it your all? You're not going to hold back?" Yukiko laughed "But that's going to be difficult for you...because if you beat me, you're probably going to have to fight Yu-kun"
"W-Why would I fight with Yu?!" Chie questioned
"Well, for starters, because you're a terrible friend" Yukiko mocked "And second, because the Prince needs to cut down all in their path"
"What are you saying?" Chie asked
"You're the Prince, Chie" Yukiko giggled "This whole tournament is for you..."
"W-What?!" Chie gasped
"Fighting with all your friends, fitting for such a horrible person like you" Yukiko laughed
"Yukiko, listen to me, it isn't like that!" Chie cried "Can't you even hear a word I'm saying?!"
Yukiko only smiled in response
"Hate...Abuse..." Rise's voice rang through "Fight...Everyone and their friends...MUST KILL EACH OTHER!"
"Konohana-Sakuya!" Yukiko yelled, firing a torrent of flames at Chie, who used a nearby stack of chairs as a Shield "What?!"
Just as the flames vanished, Chie lobbed the chair at Yukiko, who swiped it away, leaving her wide open
"I'm sorry..." Chie muttered, before delivering her trademark Galactic Punt right to Yukiko's gut
"Argh!" Yukiko gugled as she was knocked back and fell to the ground
...
"Yukiko...the Yukiko...I know would never...say those things, despite how angry she was..." Chie muttered as her fallen friend laid before her "I'm sorry..."
"Aa~aah! That really left a bad taste in my mouth" Rise groaned "Every last one of them...even though I've gone to such great lengths to liven things up...well, let's just see how long they last..."
"Yukiko..." Chie muttered as the girl began to awaken "Are you..."
"Chie..." Yukiko muttered "You're...back to normal?"
"What do you mean?" Chie asked
"Saying all those horrible things..." Yukiko mumbled as she looked away "I know Yu-kun really loves you...you don't have to mock me because I thought he liked me instead..."
"I never did any of that!" Chie claimed "You're the one saying that I was a horrible friend! That Yu-kun was pathetic for wanting a piece of trash like me!"
"I...I never said any of that!" Yukiko defended as she stood up
"It's beginning to sound like we had two different conversations..." Chie muttered
...
"Maybe...neither of us really said those things..." Yukiko said softly as she looked away
"I would never say those things to you" Chie claimed
"I wouldn't say that to you either..." Yukiko admitted
"You said...this whole tournament was for me" Chie recalled "What did you mean?"
"I said that?" Yukiko asked "I...don't recall that"
"Ugh, what is going on?!" Chie grumbled as she rubbed her head "First, Adachi-san, Yumi and Ayane-chan showed up on the TV, then you, Kou and Daisuke were kidnapped and now...
...
I...even if you hate me now, I...I'm glad you're okay"
"I don't hate you..." Yukiko said to her "I am a little...let down that you're with Yu-kun instead of me and you chose to hide it...but...if you're really happy with him, then I'm happy for you...you're my best friend Chie. All I want for you is to be happy..."
"Yukiko..." Chie sniffed before wrapping her best friend in a hug
And then both girls felt a jolt run through their bodies, and their Persona's floated up and transformed
Chie and Yukiko's strong will that allowed them to accept and overcome their weakness have awakened their heart's true power...Their Persona's have been reborn! Tomoe has transfigured into Suzuka Gongen and Konahana-Sakuya has become Amaterasu!
Both girls looked up and stared in awe at their new Persona's. What they failed to notice however, were the small balls of golden light that floated up to the ceiling and faded through...
"What...is this?" Chie questioned
"I heard Teddie...or rather, that fake Teddie say that only the winner can move on ahead..." Yukiko muttered before pointing to the door "You don't have time to be chatting with me right now! Ichijo-kun, Nagase-kun, Adachi-san, Yumi-san, Ayane-san...you have to protect them Chie!"
...
"I will" Chie smiled at her friend "Leave it to me!"
CLASSROOM
"COME ON!" The inhuman monster that was Shadow Yumi roared "Is that really the best you can do?!"
"Yumi..." Yu groaned as he held the bleeding cut on his arm
"S...Stop..." Yumi mumbled
"Shut it!" Shadow Yumi snapped "Don't you get it?! I'm doing you a favor! I'm killing this little heartbreaker!"
"No...that's not..." Yumi tried to get out
"Why are you trying to stop me?!" The Shadow roared "He doesn't love you! So he should die! Just like that pathetic piece of shit father of ours!"
"No...I...don't want Yu-kun to die!" Yumi pleaded
"What is with you?!" Shadow Yumi snapped
"Just because his feelings were different from mine...it doesn't mean he should die" Yumi whimpered "Dad...despite everything he did, didn't deserve to die either"
"What are you saying?!" Shadow Yumi snapped "Everyone who doesn't love us...should just die!"
"No that's not it!" Yumi snapped back "Dad...was happy in the end...and Yu-kun...I know he's happy with someone"
"Yumi..." Yu muttered
"I can't...force someone to love me" Yumi stated "Yu-kun...belongs to someone else"
"What is with you?!" Shadow Yumi snapped "Why...why don't you want him dead?!"
SLASH
The Shadow cried out in pain, as Yu took this opportunity to have Izanagi slash the Shadow, causing blood to spurt out
"I was so angry when Yu-kun didn't return my feelings...only to realize...Dad must of been so upset when he heard those things I said about him" Yumi stated "Love...whether it's mutual or unrequited...can change a person"
"Shut up!" The Shadow roared
"Yu-kun...doesn't love me...and maybe I was just relying on him in a time of need" Yumi revealed "Maybe I didn't love him afterall...but I know Dad truly loved me...and no one deserves to suffer for it either way! I have to accept those facts"
"You..." The Shadow began to snap before its demonic form eroded away, revealing the Shadow in the form of Yumi
"You know this too don't you?...you're me after all" Yumi smiled sweetly
...
The Shadow silently nodded before it vanished and in it's place stood a red horse-like figure with a long flowing silver mane and angel wings
Yumi Ozawa has faced her true self and has gained the power of overcoming life's hardships, the Persona "Hoderi-no-Mikoto"
"What...is this?" Yumi questioned as a tarot card marked with the Sun Arcana
"It's your Pe-Yumi!" Yu cried out as he caught the girl who fell feint
"Yu...kun" Was all she got out before collapsing
"Sorry..." Yu apologized as he laid her down "I need to go...but I'll be back for you..."
HALLWAY
"Miss President! You don't have to rush!" Teddie moaned as he chased after her
"If ya got a problem then spit it out already!" She groaned
"Ooh, you're beary grumpy! Let's make it more fun by talking while we go!" Teddie said affectionately
"Talkin'?" She questioned
"Yeah! For example..." Teddie smiled "Miss President, what's your name?"
"My name? It's-
...
I'm...I'm the Student council president..."
"Well, yeah?" Teddie shrugged "I know that, but..."
"What's goin' on...I...I can't remember nothin' else..." She muttered as she clutched her head "Just...what am I doin' here?"
"Miss...President?" Teddie questioned
"I can't remember nothin'...I don't remember...No that's wrong, I...I...aaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!"
"Miss President, what's wrong!?" Teddie cried
"Wrong...It's wrong...I don't wanna fight any more! I don't wanna hafta kill my sisters!" She cried as she dashed down the hall
FIRST FLOOR HALLWAY
"Senpai!" Rise cried out as she dodged another swing from him
"Listen to me!" Mitsuru cried out as she was held back by an invisible wall "That boy isn't your friend! It's something posing as him!"
"That...can't be right!" Rise stated
"You have no choice but to fight it!" Mitsuru stated
"I can't! My Persona isn't a combat type!" Rise stated
"It may just be!" Mitsuru shouted "There was a time when I was unaware that my Persona had combat abilities too...you must try!"
"My...My Persona?" Rise questioned as she summed Himiko "Can it really...?"
Just as she stated to question it, her Persona began to morph. The radar dish opened up, revealing a face and long red hair, the Persona's dress-like garment transformed into a cape, reavling a black body and several small radars on the Persona floated off and produced energy shields that surrounded the Persona
"I...my Persona..." Rise muttered "I...can fight?"
HALLWAY
"Damn it!" Yosuke roared as he stormed down the halls "The layout of the school...everything's different...I-"
Yosuke continued to complain on and on, until he reached a small stretch of hall, where he spotted a small bundle, hudled on the floor
"Ayane!" He cried over as he ran over to girl "What happened? Did one of the others take care of her shadow?"
"Hey Ayane!" Yosuke cried as she tried to shake the girl awake "Wake up! Come on!"
Yosuke continued to try to awaken her, until he began to fear the worst
"Oh no...Ayane?" He asked as he placed his fingers to the little girls neck
And found no pulse...
SECOND FLOOR HALLWAY
"Yu!" Chie called out as he spotted him
"Chie!" He shouted as he walked over "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine, I ran into Yukiko..." Chie muttered
"Oh..." Yu responded
"We...worked things out" Chie smiled "And...my Persona transformed"
"Your Persona?" Yu questioned before Chie summoned Suzuka-Gongen "Whoa! What the!"
"Yeah..." Chie nodded "It changed after me and Yukiko talked..."
"She's okay...with us?" Yu questioned
"Y-Yeah..." Chie nodded quietly
"Right...that's good" Yu sighed
"Are...you okay?" Chie asked
"I took care of Yumi's shadow" Yu informed "That's all sorted out...
"Oh" Chie nodded "That's good"
"So...all that's left is what's behind the door" Yu pointed
"You...feel it too, huh?" Chie asked
"Yeah..." Yu confirmed before pushing open the door and spotting "K-Kou!"
"Ichijo?!" Chie questioned before she ran in after him and the two found the boy
"You...you two" Kou muttered
"Kou, listen-" Yu began, but the words Kou heard were not the ones that actually left Yu's mouth "You didn't actuaully think you had a chance with her did you?"
"Huh? Hey! Y-You son of a...!" Kou snappd
"Oh boy, here he goes again" Chie sighed as she latched onto Yu's arm "Whining little runt...take care of him for me, will you?"
"Of couse my dear" Yu smiled before planting a wet one on Chie's lips
"Stop it!" Kou snapped as Yu and Chie practically made out infront of him
"Oh my, not here Yu-kun" Chie giggled as Yu began to unzip her jacket "We have an audience"
"Oh yeah...will you please leave us?" Yu asked Kou "I'd like to have sex with my girlfriend, and I'd prefer to do it without an audience"
"You...You fucking bastard!" Kou swore "Are you just doing this to mock me?!"
"My body is for Yu-kun's eyes only" Chie giggled as she shrugged off her jacket and Yu opened his shirt "At the very least, look away"
"Stop it, both of you!" Kou snapped as tears stinged his eyes
"Oh, Yu..." Chie moaned as Yu kissed her neck before clawing away the back of her shirt, tearing it off, revealing her bare back along with her bra-strap
"Stop it!" Kou roared as Chie tore off Yu's shirt and the two fell on the ground
"Oh yes..." Chie moaned as Yu peeled her bike shorts off
"No, damn it!" Kou roared as he closed his eyes
"No underwear, my, my..." Yu chuckled "Dirty girl..."
"Stop it, stop it!" Kou roared as he covered his ears
"Oh yes, that's it!" Chie gasped as Yu slipped into her "Oh yes, yes, yes!"
"STOP IT!"
"Kou!" The real Yu snapped "Calm down! Listen to us!"
"You two...just die already!" Kou roared "PERSONA!"
