Bonding with the Chariot and Makoto babysits

Leblanc Café

April 17th

Ren and Lorelei came back after getting the weapons and armor with Ryuji. Now the Thieves had the Equipment ready for Kamoshida's Castle.

"Oh you two back you two how's everything?" Sojiro asked.

"Everything is well Coffee man." Lorelei said with a smile.

"Huh glad that was sorted anyway I'm going home see you all tomorrow." Sojiro said as he leaves to go back home.

Soon the both of them had dinner and went to bed.

Next morning

April 18th

It was morning and it was time for school. Ren and Lorelei went to school where they were called in by Kawakami. Soon they find themselves at the school councilor office.

"Ok then Ren, Lorelei how are you two doing?" Sadayo asked.

"I'm ok Sada-Sensei um besides the volleyball thing." Lorelei said making Sadayo cringe at that part.

"Yeah…are you ok sweetie?" Sadayo asked as Lorelei nods.

"Now then Ren I heard that you and your daughter are hanging out with Sakamoto-san and that you encountered the first year honor student. Do you have a natural attraction to athletes or something?" Sadayo joked.

"I think papa likes maids since mama dresses like one." Lorelei said.

"Lorelei?!" Ren said as he blushed.

Sadayo blushed as well but she shakes away her blush.

"Ok then anyway I just want you to be careful and please get yourself some new glasses you're actually quite terrifying." Sadayo said being quite afraid of him.

"I know my new glasses are coming next week. I actually don't need them to see but…" Ren said.

"I know I'll tell the principal after the meeting. But I guess that's said and done." Sadayo said.

Soon the three of them came out of the office where they see Kamoshida walking with Katsumi.

Kamoshida notices the teacher and the father and daughter duo.

"Oh Sadayo. Are you busy with them?" Kamoshida asked.

"I was, just finished actually." Sadayo said as Katsumi sees them.

"Oh Sempai, Lorelei-chan. It's been a while." Katsumi said with a smile.

"Oh Yoshizawa-san I'd suggest you be careful with this one but it's mostly rumors." Kamoshida said as Sadayo gives him the stink eye.

"Don't worry papa is nice he only looks scary without his glasses." Lorelei said as Katsumi shudders when she looked at Ren.

"Sorry Yoshizawa-san." Ren said.

"Its ok Sempai I hope both you and Lorelei have a wonderful day." Katsumi said with a smile.

"Well then Ren, Lorelei let's head to class." Sadayo said as they went to Class with Lorelei waving Katsumi goodbye.

After a bit it was after school and the two of them went to the school library to get a book as for why Ren's parents burned all of Lorelei's book it was mostly fairy tales. Ren hopes that he finds a good book for Lorelei.

As he entered the library he spots Makoto.

"Oh Amamiya-san, Lorelei-chan what are you doing here?" Makoto asked.

"I'm here to check out a book for Lorelei for her bedtime story." Ren said.

"Papa's mommy and daddy burned all of my fairy tales." Lorelei said with a pout as Makoto felt a jolt of guilt for what happened in their first meeting.

"I hope you find something for her Amamiya-san." Makoto said as she leaves.

"Bye-bye Mako-chan." Lorelei said as she waved.

Makoto waves back, smiled at her and went on her way.

"Ok sweetie why don't you take a look at the books and find something for bedtime alright." Ren said as Lorelei nods.

Soon father and daughter went looking for a book. Ren looks around and overhears the other students.

"Look it's the delinquent."

"I heard he murdered someone."

"I heard he's Yakuza."

"I heard he abused his kid."

"Dude that one is bullshit you should have seen how pissed off he was when Kamoshida hit Lorelei with the volleyball."

"Yeah besides it was her grandparents that abused her not Amamiya-san though I'm pretty sure that he'll kill them when his probation is over."

"One of the students was brave enough to talk to him."

"Um Amamiya-san I just wanted to ask something?" The student asked.

"Um sure?" Ren said.

"Are going to kill your parents for what they did to Lorelei?" The student said.

"I'll probably have settle with scarps that Lavenza will leave behind once she's done with them." Ren said with a shrug.

"Who's Lavenza?" The student said confused at the odd name.

"Oh that's the name of Lorelei's Mother and my fiancé." Ren said.

"Oh thank you Amamiya-san." The student said as he went back to his friends.

This got the students began talking again.

"Well that escalated quickly."

"For some reason I foresee maiming and or death via chainsaw."

"Well at least we now have a name for Lorelei's ka-san."

"Maybe she's that hot chick that came out of that limo."

"Nope that's my auntie Mar-mar." Lorelei said as ran towards her papa.

The Student thanked Lorelei for clarifying.

"Oh Lorelei did you get a book?" Ren asked wondering what book she got.

Lorelei smiled as she shows a book titled The Pirate Legend.

"Why this one Musume?" Ren said.

"It's about Captain Kidd papa." Lorelei said as she uses her puppy eyes.

This gets Ren's attention a book about Ryuji's Persona this might help them.

"(Ren ask her if their are any books based on the others)." Arsene said.

"(Ooo I hope theirs one of me)." Zorro said

"Say sweetie did you happen to find books about Arsene, Zorro and Carmen?" Ren asked as Lorelei nods.

"Yeah I found them." Lorelei said.

"Can you bring them here?" Ren said as Lorelei nods and went to get the books.

Soon they went to the check out the books and the girl attending the Library looked worried as she heard the rumors about Ren and Lorelei though she was relieved that most of them were false thanks to the principal but still he scares her though from what she heard that he's only scary when the glasses are off.

"Excuse me but I like to check out these books." Ren said as he puts down the books he wants to check out.

"Oh I see." The librarian said as starts to check out the books.

They were The Great Thief, Zorro the Outlaw, The Alluring Dancer and the Pirate Legend.

The librarian tried to tell Ren that he can only check out one book but Lorelei's puppy eyes put an end to that.

"Thank you miss." Ren said.

"Thank you miss." Lorelei said with a smile.

Soon after getting some drinks for the Palace they head to Shibuya to see the sights with Lorelei.

After arriving they went to the bookstore for a couple of books for Ren and a story book for Lorelei.

They also bought some drinks at the arcade and Ren got a Movie subscription, rented a movie and got a part time job at the 777. But as they went passed the alleyway that led to Untouchables Ren noticed the cell door of the Velvet Room.

Ren touched Lorelei shoulder and pointed at the cell door.

"Hey Lorelei want to see your aunties and grandpa?" Ren asked as Lorelei nodded.

The both of them went into the Velvet Room.

Velvet Room

As Father, Daughter and the not cat entered the Velvet Room where they see Igor and the Twins.

"Lori-chan welcome." The twins said at the same time.

"Ah welcome back Ren I see that you manage to get more Personas. I'm sure you already know of this but here in the Velvet Room we can make you Personas stronger via the act of fusion." Igor said.

"For now though you're only strong enough to only handle Dyad fusions. Inmate." Caroline said with a smirk.

"Dyad Fusion what's that?" Lorelei asked confused at the term.

"Fusions that take two Personas and make them into one Persona." Justine said clarifying what Caroline meant.

"Oh ok then." Lorelei said satisfied with her Auntie Justine's answer.

"This is amazing Ren with this you can be even more powerful." Morgana said.

"Now then shall we perform a fusion?" Igor asked.

Ren nodded as he first registered his Personas first before fusing thus allowing him to buy them back.

"Ok I want to fuse Pixie with Arsene." Ren said as said Personas leave Ren's mind and into the room.

"Are you going to be ok Arsene?" Lorelei asked.

"I will be just fine Petit Papillon I am a part of your father as such I will always be there for him hahahaha." Arsene said as he laugh.

"You sure cause a see a French guillotine right there." Zorro said as he points to the said guillotine.

Ren shocked at this looked at Igor who was equally surprised.

"Um girls why do you have a guillotine here?" Igor asked.

The twins looked confused by this.

"Um isn't this how you fuse Persona dad?" Caroline asked.

"No." Both Ren and Igor said at the same time.

"I would use the Tarot Cards to fuse Personas girls." Igor said.

"Oh well let's use it anyway." Justine said as they prepare the Personas.

Once the Personas are covered and the guillotine blades come down (with Ren covering Lorelei's eyes) a New Persona took their place.

It was an imp-like creature with blue skin and red eyes stuck in a golden jar.

"I am Agathion of the Chariot Arcana I'm here to help you guys out I am thou, Thou art I." Agathion said as it becomes Ren's Joker mask and flies to Ren's face.

"So anything else Ren?" Igor asked as Ren gave a Joker-like grin.

On train back to Leblanc

Ren was grinning like a ninny as he now had a new team of Personas.

The New team consisted of The Fool: Arsene, The Magician: Jack Frost, The Chariot: Slime, The Lovers Ame no Uzume, The Hierophant: Berith and The Death: Mokoi.

He was ready for the Palace.

The Personas on the other hand were wandering Ren's mind.

"(Huh this does have a fire in him that's for sure)." Berith said.

"(Indeed my ward is a true Rebel)." Arsene said.

"(Hee Hoo this is quite the show right Mokoi)?" Jack Frost asked as Mokoi nods.

"(Lorelei is quite adorable little one)." Ame no Uzume said.

"(Me have Question, Why Ren no dead)?" Slime asked.

The other Personas didn't have an answer for that one. But soon everyone was back at Yongen Jaya.

They soon paid a visit to the second hand shop to get the DVD player and Famicom. With that out of the way they went back to Leblanc.

Soon Ren read The Pirate Legend to Lorelei Ren felt both his Guts and Kindness increase and tended to the plant with the Bio-nutrients he got.

They went to bed and prepare for tomorrow.

April 19th

The day starts like always with a Curry breakfast and a train ride to Shujin. Ren even answered a question correctly soon school ended but Ren's has a problem it was nearing Lorelei's naptime and Ryuji wants to hang out soon and he needed a babysitter.

"Calm down Ren why don't just ask Lady Ann to babysit?" Morgana asked wanting to see Ann again.

Ren knew his cat was a simp.

"She's visiting Shiho and then has to do a modeling job." Ren said.

"Oh how about Haru?" Morgana said.

"She has a dentist appointment." Ren said.

"Um that Makoto girl?" Morgana said hoping that Makoto is available.

"Well I don't know her that well but it might work." Ren said deciding that Makoto would be a good choice.

Soon Ren arrives at the student council office and Ren knocks the door to reveal Makoto.

"Oh Amamiya-san what's wrong?" Makoto said.

"I kind of need a babysitter I'm going to be training with Ryuji and it's almost time for Lorelei's nap and I don't know if our training will wake her up." Ren explained.

"I see well then I'll take care I just have to review some documents but other than that I'm free." Makoto said.

To Makoto this is a chance to make up the disastrous first meeting they had.

"Ok just before you put her down play this music box that'll put her to sleep." Ren said as he gives Makoto the music box.

"Ok then Amamiya-san I just have to play the music box right?" Makoto asked as Ren nods.

"Lorelei be good for Mako-chan alright." Ren said as Lorelei nods and cutely yawns.

"Well then it naptime for you little one, I'll take of her ok." Makoto said as Ren kisses Lorelei's forehead.

"Ok then I just have to wind-up the music box." Makoto says to herself as she does just that.

She then opens up the music box to reveal to porcelain figurines of Ren and Lavenza in wedding attire dancing with velvet blue butterflies fluttering around them as the song began to play.

(Play Aria of the Soul Music Box version)

The music sounds beautiful and like Ren said it made Lorelei fall asleep this music is very relaxing honestly she feels like she wants to fall asleep as well.

Soon Makoto's eyes went droopy and soon they closed and Makoto went to sleep.

(End Aria of the Soul Music Box version and Play Aria of the Soul)

Makoto wakes up to hear the same music of the music box but this time it's played by a piano and sung by soprano singer.

Makoto sees her surrounding and notices that she's on some sort of beach.

"Where am I?" Makoto says to herself as she walks along the beach following the sound of the music.

Soon she finds the source of the music which is from Nanashi and Belladonna.

"Um excuse me but who are you?" Makoto asked.

"I am Nanashi... A pianist who opens the shuttered doors of one's soul..." Nanashi said.

"I am Belladonna. I sing to the visiting warriors. Who challenge the monster called thyself." Belladonna said to the tune of the music.

"Um thank you anyway where am I and where is Lorelei?" Makoto said worried about Ren's little girl.

"Lorelei is safe this is a dream. However we do have a message for you." Nanashi said.

Makoto calms down this might be just a vivid dream.

"Soon you will have to make a choice between what is expected of you or what you think is right." Nanashi said as the world around them begins to disappear.

(End Aria of the Soul)

Makoto wakes up to Lorelei poking her cheek.

"Mako-chan wake up you need to take me to papa he said his training is done." Lorelei said with a pout.

"Wait what?!" Makoto said as she looks at the time.

"Let's go Lorelei-Chan." Makoto said as Lorelei nods.

The both of them rush off to get to Ren.

Sometime later

Leblanc Café entrance

After Makoto brought Lorelei back both he and Lorelei went back to Leblanc.

Then Ren's phone begins to Ring.

"Hello?" Ren said as he answered the call.

"Yo man calling to check on ya?" Ryuji said.

"I'm doing good Ryuji and Lorelei says hi." Ren said as Lorelei grins.

"Yeah tell her I said hi back anyway tomorrow were going to Kamoshida's palace to take down the effing bastard." Ryuji said.

"I know man we'll take him down." Ren said with a smile.

"Hell ya, also I still can't believe that the one time you forgot to use a condom you made Lorelei." Ryuji said as he chuckles.

Ren blushes at that.

"See you tomorrow man." Ren said.

"Bye Ryuji." Lorelei said.

"Later dude, squirt." Ryuji said as he hangs up.

"Still can't believe that it took one night with no condom led to your Daughter. Dios mio Ren." Morgana said as he said the last part in Spanish.

"What's a Condom?" Lorelei asked.

The Father and Not-Cat stood their in Silence.

"Um i'll tell when you're older alright." Ren said.

"Ok papa." Lorelei said.

Soon the both of them went in had diner and Ren read the The Pirate Legend again.

After that he went to bed because tomorrow they will go back to Kamoshida's palace.
