"I guess that new equipment was worth it, that prince is almost beaten already." Dojima said calmly.

"Yeah, then we can save Yukiko and catch the bad guy." Nanako said happily.

"I hope so, I have a feeling the game isn't over yet." Dojima said. "Though that just means we'll have to spend more time together to beat it before your cousin arrives."

"Ok." Nanako said with a smile.

Suddenly the prince shadow got up and ran away from the battle.

"Wait my prince." Shadow Yukiko said attempting to summon the prince again only for a message to appear stating he would not return.

"That makes things easier." Dojima said.

Suddenly the doorbell rang.

"A visitor?" Nanako asked. "You have to go don't you?"

"Not until tomorrow morning." Dojima said opening the door. "Adachi, what are you doing here?"

"You seemed tired today Dojima-san, I just wanted to make sure you were alright." Adachi said.

"I'm alright, just thinking about something. Some time to unwind with Nanako is all I need." Dojima said. "I'll see you tomorrow."

"Well if you say so." Adachi said thoughtfully before leaving.

"What are you thinking about dad?" Nanako asked.

"I'll tell you once we've saved Yukiko, deal?" Dojima asked.

"Ok, you promise right?" Nanako asked.

"Yeah, I promise." Dojima said. "Now then, where were we?"

"We just beat the prince." Nanako said. "Should we make Chie stronger dad?"

"Not yet, we should make sure the boss is still weak first." Dojima said selecting Rakunda again.

"Oh, should we use the green one dad?" Nanako asked. "The one that makes the bad guys miss us?"

"I was thinking the same thing." Dojima said with a smile before selecting Yosuke's Sukakaja skill and using it on Chie. "Now Chie can increase her strength so we can deal as much damage as possible."

"Yeah." Nanako said with a smile.

Just as Nanako said that, Shadow Yukiko tried to use Agi on Chie only for it to miss.

"Good, she missed." Dojima said.

"Oh yeah, should we make Yosuke stronger dad?" Nanako asked.

"That's a good idea, right now Junes Dojima is doing the least damage." Dojima said calmly before having Junes Dojima cast Tarukaja on Yosuke. "Now let's just see what happens."

"Let's do this Jiraiya." Yosuke said as his persona appeared and used Sonic Punch.

"Persona." Chie said as Tomoe appeared and cast Bufu on Shadow Yukiko.

"Just a little more, if we get another critical hit we should be able to beat her next turn." Dojima said just before shadow Yukiko flew towards Yosuke and used Twin Fangs and hit him twice nearly killing him.

"Oh no, he's hurt." Nanako said nervously.

"Yeah, I wasn't expecting her to hit him twice." Dojima said. "Then again we do have something we can do."

"Oh yeah, I forgot about that." Nanako said while Dojima used medicine on Yosuke. "He's like a doctor."

"I guess he is." Dojima said. "Now then, let's try and take down that shadow."

As he said that, Dojima selected Yosuke's Sonic Punch again.

"He missed, are we going to lose dad?" Nanako asked nervously.

"No, we're not going to lose." Dojima said. "It's just going to take a little bit longer to beat her."

"Protect me Tomoe." Chie said as her persona appeared and used Skull Cracker.

"One more turn should be all it takes." Dojima said calmly.

Suddenly Shadow Yukiko used Burn to Ashes and hit Junes Dojima and Yosuke nearly killing both of them.

"This is really bad." Nanako said nervously.

"Maybe, but it is a game so we can always try again if we lose. So do you think we should just attack and see what happens?" Dojima asked.

"Will we be able to help Yukiko?" Nanako asked hopefully.

"There's only one way to find out." Dojima said before having Junes Dojima attack with his katana, and Yosuke attack with his knives. "Ok, if Chie get's a critical hit we can win."

"Ok." Nanako said crossing her fingers.

"Persona." Chie said before Tomoe appeared and used Skull Cracker on Shadow Yukiko.

"We got lucky this time." Dojima said. "Ok, let's take down her shadow, and save Yukiko."

"Yeah, we won't let anybody get hurt." Nanako said with a smile while Dojima selected to use the All-Out Attack.

"No." Shadow Yukiko said collapsing in defeat.

"Dojima-san's been acting strangely the past few days, I know there's something bothering him but what can I do to help?" Adachi asked out loud.

"Excuse me, is there something I can help you with young man?" asked an old woman.

"Oh, no it's nothing just thinking out loud." Adachi said.

"Alright." the woman said walking down the street.

Maybe I should let him take a few days off, he does so much and Nanako-chan deserves some time with her dad, Adachi thought. "Yeah, I think I'll do that for him."

As he said that Adachi started walking towards the police station. (1)

"Master, there's something I've been meaning to ask you." Margaret said calmly.

"What is on your mind?" Igor asked calmly.

"This is yet another time our guest will be going through these events, however two of his social links are changing due to our interference. Should we be concerned of the consequences this will bring to his destiny?" Margaret asked.

"Very perceptive of you Margaret, we will have to wait and see what happens." Igor said. "Of course you could always follow in your sister's decision and seek out the answer yourself."

"No, my sister's decision to leave the Velvet Room was rather foolish. I intend to stay and attend to my duties." Margaret said calmly.

"I somehow knew that would be your answer." Igor said.

"We saved Yukiko dad." Nanako said with a smile.

"Yeah, we did." Dojima said. "Though I wonder what her persona is going to look like."

The moment Dojima said that Shadow Yukiko vanished before transforming into a persona called Konohana Sakuya.

"Wow, she's really pretty." Nanako said.

"Yeah, I guess she is." Dojima said thoughtfully. I only hope that Yukiko can help us figure out what's going on in this game, he thought.

(Shadow Yukiko has been defeated, and Yukiko's persona has awoken. Next chapter the second person will appear on the midnight channel. As always any reviews or critique is appreciated.)

(1) (Adachi hasn't started shoving people into the TV world yet, and he does think of Dojima as a friend. That's why he's thinking about doing something for his partner.)
