"She's definitely tougher than the last one." Dojima said thoughtfully. "Still a little more and we should be able to take her down."
"Take This." Shadow Chie said before striking both Junes Dojima and Yosuke with bolts of electricity, knocking Yosuke off his feet.
"Oh no, he's in trouble." Nanako said nervously.
"We have medicine if we need it, but what's Green Wall mean?" Dojima asked suspiciously.
"Don't count me out yet." Yosuke said getting back up and slashing at Shadow Chie.
"I have a bad feeling, Nanako don't use Garu again. If I'm right Green Wall protects her from wind attacks." Dojima said.
"Ok." Nanako said before getting a critical hit.
"Looks like we're getting rather lucky tonight." Dojima said. "Let's finish this battle and rescue Chie."
"Yeah, and then we can save Yukiko too." Nanako said with a smile before choosing to attack again.
"No way." Shadow Chie said before collapsing and ending the battle.
"Oh man, what happened?" Chie said getting back to her feet. "Wait, what's she still doing here?"
"It's part of her, just like Yosuke's shadow was part of him right dad." Nanako asked.
"Yeah, everyone has that side they wish other people didn't see. That doesn't mean they're bad people, and that includes Chie." Dojima said selecting a dialogue option.
"He's right, neither one of us thinks any less of you because of this Chie." Yosuke said reassuringly.
"You guys…" Chie said before turning to her shadow. "It's true I'm jealous of Yukiko, but that doesn't mean she's not my friend. I'm going to do whatever it takes to save her."
The moment Chie said that, her shadow nodded before being enveloped in a blue glow and transforming into a female warrior in yellow with a double sided naginata.
"Wow, that looks strong dad." Nanako said.
"I agree, though I wonder how much longer Yukiko will be safe. Especially if her shadow is with her in this castle." Dojima said.
Suddenly Chie collapsed to her knees again.
"Hey Chie, are you alright?" Yosuke asked nervously.
"I'm fine, we have to rescue Yukiko." Chie said stubbornly.
"I know, but she should be safe for now. Her shadow won't try to attack her until the fog lifts." Yosuke said. "That is what you said right Teddie?"
"Yeah, the shadows only get violent when there's no fog." Teddie said.
"So if we think about it, that announcer, and Saki-sempai were found when it was foggy on our side, which means as long as we rescue Yukiko-san before the fog rolls in she'll be safe." Yosuke said.
"He's right, we shouldn't rush ourselves but we should still keep an eye on the fog. It always rains before hand so we need to make sure we rescue her by then." Dojima said calmly.
"Yeah." Nanako said with a smile.

"Oh man, I'm feeling even worse than before." Chie said.
"Now that you mention it, I'm starting to get tired myself." Yosuke said.
"Oh, I forgot about that." Teddie said suddenly before revealing three pairs of glasses. "Here, these should help."
"Glasses, how are these going to help?" Chie asked.
"At this point if Teddie says they'll help there must be a reason." Dojima said calmly before the screen faded to black before revealing the fog in the TV world had vanished.
"Whoa, the fog's completely gone." Chie said in disbelief.
"What kind of glasses are these?" Yosuke asked.
"I made them myself, they let you see through the fog on this side." Teddie said. "If you're going to save the people who get thrown in here I thought that might help."
"It's definitely going to help, thanks Teddie." Yosuke said. "We'll definitely rescue Yukiko-san."
"You're right, thanks Yosuke." Chie said.
"Anyway, I was thinking you should take the lead since you have the most experience of the three of us." Yosuke said turning to Junes Dojima.
"I had a feeling that's how the game would go." Dojima said. "Looks like we're going to be in charge of the investigation."
"Yeah, we'll catch the bad guy and make sure nobody gets hurt." Nanako said with a smile while choosing the dialogue option.
"Cool, we'll definitely solve this mystery." Yosuke said confidently.
"Yeah, and we'll save Yukiko." Chie said.
With those words the three persona users nodded and the screen faded to black.

"Welcome back." said the game Dojima as a message appeared on screen mentioning the protagonist was tired after exploring the TV world.
"That makes sense, exploring that place would definitely take it out of you." Dojima said. "Teddie's glasses might be helpful but I doubt anyone could do much after that."
"Do you think Teddie is ok?" Nanako asked. "If you get sick being in there he must feel really sick."
"I doubt it, he lives there so he's probably immune to whatever made us sick." Dojima said before going to Junes Dojima's room and going to sleep. "Still I can't help but wonder just what that world is."
"Maybe it's where they make TV shows." Nanako said. "Yukiko had the TV show about the castle."
"That's a good point, we'll have to keep that in mind." Dojima said as the screen faded to black again.
Suddenly the phone started to ring.
"What in the world, what's going on now?" Dojima asked in annoyance. "Hello, detective Dojima speaking."
"Oh Dojima-san, you left before the call so you didn't hear. Apparently that council secretary Taro Namatame is planning on coming to Inaba soon." Adachi said. "He might need someone to keep people under control."
"Taro Namatame huh, alright thanks for letting me know." Dojima said before hanging up. "This game is turning into more of a mystery than I thought. Still it's definitely leading up to something, the question is what."
As Dojima said that, the screen changed to reveal Junes Dojima standing next to his desk at Yasogami as a text box appeared mentioning they could spend their time how they wanted but needed to be sure to rescue the people in the TV before it got foggy.
(Chie has awoken to her persona, and the game is finally allowing Nanako and Dojima to freely explore Inaba. Next chapter the battle with Shadow Yukiko will begin. As always any reviews or critique is appreciated.)
