"Dad, doesn't Chie have that one move?" Nanako asked. "The one where the bad guys get hurt when they attack her?"

"Now that you mention it yeah she does. In that case it might be a good idea to have Junes Dojima, Kanji and Yosuke block the attacks and then have Chie strengthen one of us. The question is who." Dojima said thoughtfully.

"Um, Kanji." Nanako said with a smile. "He's really strong."

"Alright, Kanji it is." Dojima said calmly. "I hope this works."

"It has to dad." Nanako said while Dojima had the four persona users take their turns.

"Well, hopefully Chie can counter this next attack." Dojima said before the shadow hit all four of the persona users.

"Oh no, Chie-chan is hurt." Nanako said nervously.

"Yeah, I can see that, Junes is going to have to heal her. Though the important thing is we know that even if the boss charges up we can survive the attack." Dojima said. "Which means for now we should attack the boss and make sure we survive this battle."

"Ok." Nanako said thoughtfully.

"Still, we have three attacks this turn so with any luck we'll have the advantage in the long run." Dojima said while having Junes Dojima heal Chie.

"You're really smart dad." Nanako said with a smile.

"I try, so let's just see what happens." Dojima said calmly.

"Yeah, we'll win for sure." Nanako said happily. "Oh, can we show him the game when he gets here dad?"

"Maybe, if he has some spare time." Dojima said calmly. "Though right now we have a giant robot to take care of, so let's see here Chie can try Gods Hand, Yosuke has Garudyne, and Kanji can try Ziodyne."

"Do you think that's going to work dad?" Nanako asked.

"We'll have to wait and see." Dojima said thoughtfully. "Though I have a feeling it should be ok."

As he said that, Dojima had the persona users attack the boss only for Chie to land a critical hit.

"Wow, Chie-chan is really cool." Nanako said with a smile.

"Yeah, she is." Dojima said while initiating an All-Out Attack. "I'm starting to think we might have gotten a bit too strong."

"Really?" Nanako asked. "Does that mean we're stronger than the bad guy now?"

"I'm not sure about that, but if we keep going at this rate by the time we do catch the bad guy we'll be able to beat him." Dojima said calmly.

"Yeah." Nanako said happily before Kanji's Ziodyne hit the shadow. "It's already halfway beaten dad, we'll rescue him really fast."

"I agree, and I think it might be a good idea to try our other new persona." Dojima said thoughtfully.

"Which one dad?" Nanako asked curiously.

"Scathach, the one we got from Yukiko." Dojima said. "After all, she is Junes Dojima's girlfriend right?"

"Yeah." Nanako said while Dojima switched to Scathach.

"Ok, let's see how strong this persona is, Mabufudyne should work." Dojima said calmly while trying the attack.

"Wow, she's really strong." Nanako said in surprise.

"Yeah you're right." Dojima said. "These ultimate personas definitely deserve their name. This battle is as good as over."

The moment he said that, Dojima had Chie, Yosuke, and Kanji attack the shadow destroying it.

"Do you think the Leader Key is in that chest dad?" Nanako asked.

"Yeah, I think it is." Dojima said. "So we can pick that up and then we'll stop for tonight."

"Ok." Nanako said yawning. "I'm sleepy."

"I'm not surprised, it's getting pretty late." Dojima said calmly. "I'll get the key and then we should head to bed."

"Ok." Nanako said quietly.

"Nanako, we're home." Dojima said calmly.

"You're late." Nanako said. "We were supposed to play together dad."

"I know, but I thought you might want some sushi from Junes tonight." Dojima said calmly.

"Really, yay." Nanako said happily.

"Dojima-san, are you sure I'm not intruding?" Adachi asked. "I mean, isn't this time for you and Nanako to spend together?"

"No, you're dad's friend so you can stay." Nanako said.

"You heard her Adachi, you're joining us for the rest of the game." Dojima said calmly.

"Oh, well alright I guess." Adachi said. "So what happened since we caught the bad guy Nanako-chan?"

"That wasn't the real bad guy, and someone else got kidnapped." Dojima explained.

"Huh, who?" Adachi asked while Nanako turned the game on.

"The detective prince, Naoto Shirogane." Dojima said calmly. "I have my suspicions about what his shadow will say though."

"What do you mean dad?" Nanako asked handing Dojima the controller.

"Think about it, he's treated like a kid despite being one of the only people who actually understands what's going on. Something tells me he resents being treated like that." Dojima said.

"Oh, then we need to be friends with him." Nanako said.

"I had a feeling you'd say that." Dojima said. "So same team as last time?"

"Yeah." Nanako said with a smile.

"Hold on, what team?" Adachi asked in confusion.

"Kanji, Chie, and Yosuke." Dojima said before entering the dungeon.

"Present Leader Card, is this anything like that Orb of Darkness that we found Nanako-chan?" Adachi asked.

"Yeah, every dungeon had some kind of item you needed to find in order to reach the person on the top floor." Dojima said. "Well bottom floor in this case but the point still applies."

"I guess you're right Dojima-san." Adachi said. "Huh, what's that red one?"

"The red ones are stronger, but right now we need to rescue him." Nanako said.

"You heard her, we have a rescue mission to finish." Dojima said with a chuckle.

"Yeah, I guess you're right." Adachi said rubbing the back of his head while Dojima went down another floor. "Looks like the boss is right behind that door, so hopefully we're strong enough right Nanako-chan?"

"Yeah, we have to make sure his shadow doesn't hurt him." Nanako said.

"Well, let's see what the next boss is like." Dojima said before entering the boss room.

(Nanako, Dojima, and Adachi have arrived at the final floor of the Secret Laboratory dungeon and are about to battle Shadow Naoto. Next chapter the battle will begin. As always any reviews or critique is appreciated.)
