A few minutes later…
"I see… That's essentially the same experience we had that led to our arrival here." said Makoto with a knowing look on her face after she, Isamu and the others are done hearing the silver-haired girl explaining and telling them on how she and her friends came into the theater.
"Yeah. But the way on how they came into this theater place is different from how we came into this place." thought Isamu to herself.
"So there are other places that are like Mementos… Colour me surprised." said Futaba with a surprise look on her face at hearing about the TV world which the silver-haired girl told them.
"Well, spaces like that are born from people's hearts-it wouldn't be all that strange if there were others elsewhere." said Morgana.
"A space born from people's hearts, huh? Is that why they're able to connect to other, similar spaces?" said Goro with a pondering look on his face.
"Most likely, such a deduction does not solely apply to the realms within the movies… I believe the movie theater that we now stand within is yet another world that has been born for a specific reason." explained Elizabeth.
"I see. But I wonder what's the reason for this movie theater to be created." thought Miyuki curiously in her mind about the reason for the existence of the movie theater.
"I see-that would explain why I've been stuck in this form, too." said Morgana with a small nod of his head.
"I don't get what all of you're saying, but because of all this weird stuff going on, Yosuke's… Yosuke's all alone noooooow! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" wailed the bear costume guy as he run toward and glomped himself against the person closest to him, which turns out to be Goro.
"Yosuke-kun? Is he the missing friend you mentioned when we first met? The one who got separated from you all?" said Goro.
"Y-Yes!" said the bear costume guy as he nodded to Goro.
"… All right, um, hold on. Please-please let me go… I-I can't breathe!" said Goro uncomfortably to the bear costume guy.
"I understand how you feel, but calm down, Teddie. Even after you bear-hugged that extra glitzy guy, Yosuke-kun won't come out of him." said the reserved girl calmly to the bear costume guy.
"Eheheh… "Extra glitzy"…" chuckled Goro.
"I smell something really nice from him for a moment there, but she's right! Plus, I'd rather go for this beautiful lady here…" said the bear costume guy as he glance and smiled at Elizabeth after he stepped away from Goro.
"Here, this "Megidolaon" is for you." said Elizabeth threateningly to the bear costume guy.
"Gyaaaaaaah!" yell the bear costume guy in more worry and fear at Elizabeth.
"Yeah, that's how Elizabeth is to the ones who go after her and let it be a lesson to you." said Godric warningly to the bear costume guy.
"…So, all of you have been separated from your friend named Yosuke-kun, huh?" asked Miyuki to the silver-haired girl and her friends.
"Yeah, that's right." replied the silver-haired girl as she glance and nodded at Miyuki.
"He might still be in the movie. I too, got separated from my own friends and ended up in one of the previous movies until I met and stay with them. Maybe he did too." said Miyuki.
"So the same thing happened to you too, huh? That's a pity and I hope that you'll find your friends too." said the silver-haired girl sadly to Miyuki.
"Yeah, I know." said Miyuki as she nodded to the silver-haired girl.
"I see. I hope Yosuke-senpai make it out safely, like you all and we did earlier…" said the intelligent guy with a concern look on his face.
"Anyway-let's think positive! Nothing good can come from panicking at a time like this! Both Rise-chan and Yosuke will be fine! After all, they're in the Investigation Team too!" said the energetic girl cheerfully to the intelligent guy.
"Right-Yosuke would never go down so easily. Still, he must feel lonely being separated from us. We need to hurry and rescue him." said the silver-haired girl concernly for Yosuke.
"S-Sensei… Teddie is back and better than ever! Rescuing Yosuke'll be the only thing on my mind!" said the bear costume guy cheerfully to the silver-haired girl.
"Geez, just how cheerful are they?" thought Akira as he mentally scowled at both the energetic girl and bear costume guy.
"I'm sorry that some of my friends are a bit rowdy. I know it's a bit late for it, but we haven't introduced ourselves. I'd love to learn and know more about you all as well." said the silver-haired girl.
"Oh yeah, that's right. Welp, time for introductions…" said Ryuji as he nodded to the silver-haired girl.
"Huh, introductions? So, what should we do? Who goes first?" said the energetic girl nervously to the silver-haired girl.
"Obviously it should be Sensei! Who could be better than her first?" said the bear costume guy.
"True, she is our leader." said the reserved girl in agreement with the bear costume guy.
"Alright then. My name is… Akemi Kanzaki. I'm a second year at Yasogami High. I hope we'll get along well." said the silver-haired girl as she introduced herself to Isamu and the others.
"A second-year… I didn't think you were younger than me. And you seem quite a mature girl." said Makoto with a slight surprise look on her face at Akemi.
"She squared off with Isa and it end with a draw earlier-I doubt she's anyone ordinary." said Goro.
"Yeah, she did." said Yusuke as he nodded in agreement with Goro.
"Nice to me-heet you, ho!" greeted Isamu jokingly to Akemi.
"ME EAT YOU WHOLE…" greeted Akemi jokingly back to Isamu.
"I'm in both your cares…" added Miyuki in joking unison to them both too.
"Huh? What're you 3 girls talking about?" asked Akira in confusion to the 3 of them.
"Umm… Are you all using some sort of code?" asked the intelligent guy in confusion to them as well.
"Oh, are y'all already on the same wavelength? Cuz, well, I feel like there's somethin' real similar between the 3 of you… I guess it's just the sort of vibes you girls got?" said Ryuji.
"That reminds me, you knew some of the blue-clothed folks, too. Like how Isamu knew those 2 kids and Miyuki-chan knew Godric too…" said Ann.
"Yeah, that's because I have the power of the wild card, so I can take on different multiple Personas. Looks like the same goes for Akemi-chan and Isamu-chan too and I'm surprised to see that the 2 of them have the same power like me." said Miyuki with a surprise look on her face.
"Yeah, I know what you mean and feel right now. It's like fate wanted to bring us together or something." said Akemi as she glance at both Miyuki and Isamu.
"Makes me wonder why fate would do such a thing." thought Isamu suspiciously in her mind.
"Uh, so, I guess I'll go next? I'm Chie Satonaka, second-year at Yasogami High. I love kung fu and meat!" said the energetic girl, introducing herself to them.
"Wait, kung fu and… meat?" said Haru with a confused look on her face.
"Ah… and I love… sweets, heh! Ooh, I'm also super-interested in fashion!" said Chie with an embarrassed look on her face.
"Ohhh man… that was even more awkward than Ann's acting…" said Morgana as he shake his head in dismay at Chie.
"Senpai, they already figured you out…" whisper the menacing-looking guy as he sweat-dropped at Chie.
"It seems I'm next… I'm Yukiko Amagi. It's nice to meet you all." said the reserved girl, introducing herself to them.
"Yukiko's family runs a historic inn, and she's next in line to take it over." said Chie.
"Ah, so that explain the air about her. It's like she has all the qualities of a traditional Japanese lady." said Haru with a small nod of her head.
"Yeah. That's kinda cool to know that you'll be the next manager of an inn. I bet that you must be great at housekeeping-and cooking, too. Isn't it?" said Miyuki as she gave a small smile at Yukiko.
"Housekeeping? Yes. Cooking, not so much." said Akemi as she shake his head a little.
"Come on, Akemi! Have you forgotten that you've been helping me practiced with my cooking and I'm getting better at it?" said Yukiko as she scowled at Akemi.
"Oh, that's right. Sorry about that, Yukiko." said Akemi apologetically at Yukiko.
"Somehow, I sense that you and your friends must have fallen because of her cooking, is it?" asked Futaba.
"I don't want to talk about it so drop it, please." said Akemi as she shake her head at Futaba.
"You heard her, Futaba. Drop it." said Isamu as she glance at Futaba.
"Alright, Isamu." sighed Futaba with a dismay look on her face.
"Kay, I'll go next. I'm Kanji Tatsumi, first-year at Yasogami High." said the menacing-looking guy, introducing himself to them.
"Huh, his surname is Tatsumi? Same like the first word of Tatsumi Port Island." thought Miyuki in her mind after she heard Kanji introduced himself.
"Another bottle blond like Ryuji, huh? Maybe you two'll get along well." said Morgana.
"…" said Kanji as he glance silently at Morgana.
"…Wh-What!?" said Morgana with a worry look on his face at Kanji (who's face started turning red).
"Whoa, whoa, what're you givin' Morgana that look for?" said Ryuji in confusion at Kanji.
"Uh… Huh!? I-I'm not giving a look!" said Kanji nervously at Ryuji.
"Really? You sure about that because your nervous attitude have already gave you away." said Isamu suspiciously at Kanji.
"Geez, how could you be such a cheat, Kanji? Don't tell me my fur isn't cuddly enough for you anym-" said the bear costume guy in a slight amused tone of voice at Kanji.
"Waaaaaaah! Hey, w-why are you rattin' me out? J-Just drop it! Next! You, Naoto!" said Kanji more nervously before he glance at the intelligent guy.
"Oh yes, I'm Naoto Shirogane and the same first-year as Kanji-kun." said the intelligent guy, introducing himself to them.
"Naoto Shirogane… That name sound familiar. Where have I heard it…?" said Makoto with a pondering look on her face.
"Hold on. Could you be…" said Rokuro as he realised who Naoto is.
"Yep, exactly what you think, Donovan-kun. This is the original "Detective Prince". I've seen many of your successes broadcast on the news… I never thought that I'd meet the original, let alone somewhere like this." said Goro with an awed look on his face at Naoto.
"The original, you say?" said Naoto with a confused look on his face at what Goro just said.
"Yes. Despite my lack of experience as compared to yourself, I'm called the next "Detective Prince" by our media…" said Goro.
"Ah, I see. Also, there's no need for such formality. It seems I'm younger than you in this world." said Naoto politely to Goro.
"Are you sure? Then, don't mind if I do…" said Goro as he nodded to Naoto.
"So that mean's we've got 2 Detective Princes then!? That's super reassuring!" said Chie with a relief look on her face.
"Haha, I'll do my best to try and live up to those expectations." said Goro as he nodded at Chie.
"If only you actually meant it…" thought Isamu sadly in her mind at Goro.
"Ooh, me me me! Lemme go next! Nice to meet you all, I'm the one and only Teddie, obviously!" said the bear costume guy named Teddie as he excitedly introduced himself to them.
"Uh, ok…" said Akira as sweat-dropped a little at Teddie's excited attitude.
"Uh, what's so obvious about that!?" said Ann with a confused look on her face.
"Oh my! Don't you know of my renowned charms, madam? Lo and behold… within this bear suit is an incredible, awesome pretty boy!" said Teddie with an embarrassed look and smile on his face.
"Yeah, yeah-quit trying to strip all the time." sighed Chie in slight exasperation at Teddie before she glance at Ann. "Just to make it clear, it's probably for the best not to think too hard about him… Something might pop out of him from time to time, but just think of it as a part of him and you'll get along fine!" added Chie reassuringly to Ann.
"Alright, could this get any more confusing!?" said Ann in more confusion at Chie.
"Let's see… The only ones who aren't here are Rise-chan and Yosuke-kun." said Yukiko.
"We know who Risette is, though. She's, like, a star idol!" said Ryuji excitedly to them.
"Geez, huge fan of Risette much?" thought Akira as he rolled his eyes at Ryuji.
"All right, then. Let's have her provide a more detailed introduction later." said Akemi as she nodded at Ryuji.
"The same goes for Yosuke-senpai as well. And it'll be faster to hear about him from his own mouth once we safely found and regroup with him." said Naoto.
"Yeah. All right and we know, that does it for our end." said Akemi.
"Well, that makes it our turn. So… should we begin with Futaba-chan?" said Haru before she glance at Futaba.
"WHAT!? Th-Th-That's way too much pressure to put on me!" said Futaba nervously before she quickly glance at Isamu. "Isamu, Isamu! Shouldn't we start with you since you're our leader?" added Futaba nervously at Isamu.
"Me? Oh, very well then, Futaba." said Isamu as she nodded to Futaba before she glance at Akemi and her friends and began introducing herself, her friends and Miyuki to them.
