"What is that?" Adachi asked in shock.
"That would be a shadow, the bosses of this particular game." Dojima said. "Alright, let's try Mabufu, if hits all three of them so there's a chance one of them might be weak to ice."
"Ok." Nanako said as Dojima picked Mabufu and Tomoe appeared above Chie.
"Did she just kick a floating card and summon some kind of warrior that controls ice?" Adachi asked in shock.
"Exactly, and she's not the only one who can do that." Dojima asked as Shadow Kanji and one of the other shadows took damage but one of them appeared to heal.
"I don't think they're weak to ice Dojima-san." Adachi said only for Dojima to hit him in the back of the head. "Ow."
"Obviously, the problem is how are we supposed to beat this boss?" Dojima said. "Wait a minute, Nanako doesn't Izanagi have that move to make the boss weaker?"
"Yeah, you're really smart dad." Nanako said.
"Alright, next turn we'll do that and then have everybody else attack." Dojima said before selecting Agilao. "For right now though we should do as much damage as possible to the boss."
"That makes sense Dojima-san." Adachi said just before one of the shadows attacked Yosuke and the other one attacked Chie.
"Oh no, they're in trouble." Nanako said nervously.
"Don't worry Nanako-chan, games like this usually have a trick." Adachi said. "You just need to figure out what it is."
Suddenly Shadow Kanji used an attack that enraged Chie and Yukiko.
"Rage, that doesn't sound good." Dojima said nervously. "Still, we should go with the original plan of lowering his defenses so we can do more damage."
"Dad, we need to make Yosuke and Chie feel better." Nanako said.
"I know, we'll let Yukiko do that." Dojima said. "Ok, Izanagi and Rakunda."
"Do you think we can win dad?" Nanako asked.
"I'm sure your dad will come up with something." Adachi said calmly.
"Well right now the smart thing to do is deal as much damage as possible." Dojima said before having Yosuke attack Shadow Kanji. "Now we'll have Chie attack and then Yukiko can…"
As Dojima was saying that, Chie and Yukiko attacked without him telling them what to do.
"What the, why did they do that dad?" Nanako asked.
"It has to be what rage does, they just attack without thinking." Adachi said. "Now what do you think we should try Dojima-san?"
"I don't know, right now we just have to wait and see what happens." Dojima said before both shadows tried to attack Junes Dojima but missed. "Looks like we got lucky this time."
"Yeah, if those two hit he'd be dead." Adachi said just as Shadow Kanji hit Yukiko nearly killing her.
"You were saying?" Dojima said in annoyance.
"Dad, we need to help them." Nanako said quickly.
"She's right, do you have anything to help them?" Adachi asked.
"Actually yeah we do." Dojima said before having Junes Dojima use a medical kit. "Ok, the problem is Chie and Yukiko are still angry which means they'll just attack."
"Well at least they're doing damage to the boss, maybe if you keep attacking you'll beat him before he beats you." Adachi suggested.
"As much as I hate to admit it, that might be our best option." Dojima said. "Alright, so in that case Yosuke should use Garula for now."
"It looks like he's taking a lot of damage, maybe rage makes you stronger too." Adachi suggested just before Chie snapped out of her rage.
"Oh, she's calmed down dad." Nanako said.
"Yeah, which means we can try something else." Dojima said having Chie use Tarukaja on herself. "On her next attack we can try and deal more damage."
"You're always thinking Dojima-san." Adachi said.
"Do you think we can win dad?" Nanako asked before Yukiko attacked Shadow Kanji again.
"As long as we're smart then yeah." Dojima said calmly.
"Dojima-san, you might want to look at this." Adachi said nervously.
"What is it Adachi?" Dojima asked before noticing Junes Dojima and Yosuke had been poisoned. "Well that might be a problem."
"What should we do now dad?" Nanako asked.
"Now we should make sure his defense is still down and then deal as much damage as possible." Dojima said selecting Rakunda again.
"Maybe we should attack the weaker two first." Adachi suggested. "It might help us beat him."
"No, if I'm right beating Shadow Kanji will beat the others automatically." Dojima said before having Yosuke use Garula.
"It looks like he's nearly beaten Dojima-san." Adachi said. "A little bit more and he'll be defeated."
"Hopefully, it's definitely going to be close." Dojima said while having Chie use Rampage. "Good, it hit him twice."
"Yeah, we'll beat him and rescue Kanji right dad?" Nanako asked happily.
"Well, it depends on what the boss does but it looks like we just might pull off a win." Dojima said. "Though we'll need to level up a lot more before the next boss."
"Ok." Nanako said happily before Dojima selected Agilao.
"Hopefully nothing too bad happens." Adachi said just before one of the shadows hit Chie and the other one hit Junes Dojima and Shadow Kanji attacked Yosuke. "Oh man, looks like your character's are in bad shape Dojima-san."
"Yeah, at this point there's only one thing to try." Dojima said.
"What do you mean dad?" Nanako asked.
"Attack and hope for the best." Dojima said putting the game on rush mode.
As Dojima did that, Junes Dojima, and Yosuke struck Shadow Kanji before Chie killed him.
"That was close, congratulations Dojima-san." Adachi said.
"Yeah, but winning is good for two reasons." Dojima said. "Right Nanako?"
"Yeah, he's going to help us stop the bad guy." Nanako said happily. "Oh, but we aren't allowed to use more than four people. The screen is full."
"I have a feeling I know how they'll handle that Nanako." Dojima said calmly. "Though after this you should get to bed, it's getting late."
"You're right, I'll try to stop by if I can." Adachi said. "Good night you two."
"Yeah, good night Adachi." Dojima said as Adachi left the house.
(Dojima, Nanako, and Adachi managed to defeat Shadow Kanji. Next chapter another person will appear on the midnight channel. As always any reviews or critique is appreciated.)
