In the ticket booth room…
"Well then, I guess we can finally relax." said the reserved girl as she glance and smiled at the silver-haired girl.
"Yeah. Until Rise is all better and can come with us, Yukiko." said the silver-haired girl as she nodded and smiled back at the reserved girl.
"But wow, Sensei… To think you were acquainted with such a handsome man! I had no idea! Why didn't you introduce and tell us about him?" said the bear costume guy in confusion to the silver-haired girl about Casnar.
"It's better that I didn't, Teddie. Trust me." said the silver-haired girl warningly to the bear costume guy about Casnar. "And also because he's insanely powerful, Teddie." added the silver-haired girl worriedly in her mind.
"Okay, okay. We can talk about that later." said the energetic girl.
"That's right. Once Rise-san's recovers, we need to immediately go back and search for Yosuke-senpai." said the intelligent guy, reminding the bear costume guy about it.
"Oh, right! I hope he's alright…" said the bear costume guy with a worry look on his face.
"Rise…? Rise… Kujikawa? Ohhhhhhhhhhh!" said Ryuji with a confused look on his face before he remember who Rise is and let out a loud yell, which make all of them except Isamu, Goro and the silver-haired girl jumped in surprise at his loud yelling.
"Hey! Don't yell like that right next to me!" snapped Ann as she scowled at Ryuji.
"Yeah, seriously, Ryuji!" said Rokuro as he scowled at Ryuji as well.
"Now I remember! That girl-she's the idol Risette! Man, I knew I'd seen her somewhere!" said Ryuji, ignoring both Ann and Rokuro.
"Now that you mention it, she is indeed the idol Risette, Ryuji." said Akira with a knowing look on his face.
"Yeah, I've been curious too-she's way beyond mere resemblance… But that can't be-Risette's not a high schooler anymore." said Futaba with a confused look on her face.
"Huh? She's not? But Rise-chan goes to our high school. She's taking a break from her show-biz career at the moment." explained the reserved girl.
"H-Hold on-wait a sec… The Risette I know and see on TV is 100% active in the show-biz world!" said Futaba in surprise and disbelief to the reserved girl about Rise.
"…Huh?" said the menacing-looking guy in confusion at what Futaba just said to them about Rise.
"Ok, this is getting weird. The Rise they know is a high schooler who's taking a break from show-biz while the Rise that Futaba knows and see on TV is back in show-biz. What's going on?" thought Isamu in confusion in her mind.
"Uh, excuse me. There's something I'd like to confirm first… The current year is 2011, right?" asked the intelligent guy to Isamu, her friends and Miyuki.
"Huh? You mean right now? Uhhhh… What year is this year?" said Ann as she try to think about it.
"It is most assuredly not 2011." said Yusuke.
"Of course not, Kitagawa-kun. It's the year 2009." said Miyuki as she shake her head at Yusuke.
"Hold on, 2009!?" said the silver-haired girl as she glance in disbelief and shock at Miyuki.
"Uh yeah? What's wrong?" said Miyuki in confusion at her.
"Wait… So right now it's not 2011, but 2009, but actually 2011!? Ugh, my brain's all mixed up…" groaned the energetic girl with a frustrated look on her face.
"No, I'm pretty sure that this year is 2011. What's the meaning of this?" said the silver-haired girl as she glance at Isamu.
"Hm, I may be wrong and it may sound ridiculous to you guys but… I think that we somehow came from different timelines into this theater." said Isamu.
"Are you serious, Isamu? That's impossible!" said Ann as she shake her head at Isamu.
"Yeah, there's no way that we came from different timelines into this theater! It must be a huge prank that someone sprang on us!" said the energetic girl as she shake her head as well.
"As much as I want to deny it, something tells me that you're not the kind of girl who tell lies to her friends because you loathed it. She may be telling the truth, you guys." said the silver-haired girl as she glance at her own friends.
"That can't be…" said the menacing-looking guy, still not believing it.
"My my. A rather sizable addition to those who have been guided here." said Elizabeth dramatically to them as she and Godric showed up.
"Ooh? Another mysterious new beauty and with another handsome guy with her!?" gasped the bear costume guy as he noticed and glance in disbelief and shock at Elizabeth and Godric.
"Only now you noticed their presences?" thought Isamu as she scowled at the bear costume guy.
"My name is Elizabeth and this is my twin brother Godric." said Elizabeth after she introduced herself and Godric to them.
"I see. It's nice to meet you two, Elizabeth and Godric." said the silver-haired girl as she nodded to them.
"Hmm… Popcorn…" said the energetic girl as she glance with a deadpan look on her face at Godric's popcorn costume.
"Pfft! AH HA HA HA HA! H-He's looks so…" laughed the reserved girl in amusement at Godric's popcorn costume.
"Yeah, his costume is hilarious but does she have to laugh about it?" thought Isamu as she glance in disbelief at the laughing reserved girl.
"It seems we have each been summoned here from different times and Isamu is right about it." said Elizabeth.
"So she's right, huh?" thought both Ann and the energetic girl guiltily in their minds.
"Time travel, huh? That's a bit difficult to believe." said Goro.
"So would that mean Team Masks came from our future? Ooh, I've got a question! Am I a total ladies' man in the future!?" asked the bear costume guy excitedly to Goro.
"How would we know!? We've got our hands full just takin' care of this cat!" snapped Ryuji as he scowled at the bear costume guy.
"Who're you calling a cat!? AND, you're not takin' care of me at all! The ones who did is Lady Isamu only!" snapped Morgana as he glared at Ryuji.
"Calm down, Morgana. And will you stop provoking him and apologize to him now, Ryuji." said Isamu calmly to Morgana then sternly to Ryuji.
"Fine, Isamu. I'm sorry, Morgana." said Ryuji, apologizing to Morgana.
"Good." said Isamu as she nodded to Ryuji.
"Hey, isn't it a bad idea to discuss things like this with each other?" said Haru worriedly to them about their discussion.
"Mm, you must be referring to time paradoxes. I suppose those could caused some unforeseen issues." said the intelligent guy as he nodded to Haru.
"Wha- "That pair of dachshunds"?" said the menacing-looking guy in confusion to the intelligent guy.
"The time paradox-it's a famous concept in science fiction. It's about the currently-unknown effects upon a timeline due to changing it's past or future." explained Goro.
"No one knows what happens?" said the reserved girl.
"Well, no one has succeeded in travelling through time. There are some theories, though. Such as, not being able to return to one's original world, or one's very existence being erased." said Goro.
"Yikes! I don't want that happening to me!" said the energetic girl with a worry look on her face.
"Basically, that's the reason it's for the best if we don't speak too much about our own time." said the intelligent guy.
"That is indeed a most wise decision. Knowing too much of the future can instigate new threats." said Elizabeth as she nodded to the intelligent guy.
"Ah, that makes sense. Plus, wouldn't it be more fun to find out about the future firsthand? I like imagining what the future could hold, but I still wanna keep the fun for later." said Ann.
"Yeah! Like maybe we're gonna enter a bright new world where expensive filets are only one yen per ounce!" said the energetic girl happily and excitedly to Ann.
"That sounds like what would happen in some apocalypse…" said the menacing-looking guy as he sweatdropped a little at what the energetic girl just said.
"Oh dear, she's just like Ryuji, another meat lover." thought Isamu, sweatdropped at her as well.
"Well then, won't you tell us a bit about yourselves and what led you all here? It may serve as clues for all of us." said Goro.
"Is that alright? We won't disappear?" said the reserved girl with a concern look on her face.
"I don't think they should, Akechi-kun." said Isamu as she glance and shake her head at Goro.
"I'm pretty sure we'll be fine. It's already happened, and furthermore… This location itself isn't normal, either. I believe such a conversation won't change much, if anything." said Goro reassuringly to Isamu, the energetic girl and reserved girl.
"You say that now, but… Anyway, how'd we get here again?" said the energetic girl as she try and failed to remember on how they got here.
"If I recall correctly, we all met up like we always do…" said the silver-haired girl as she began explaining to Isamu, her friends and Miyuki about how all of them got here.
