Chapter 14
"Nanako… Nanako, Don't worry I will save you!" Souji shouted as he ran towards her TV. Teddie and Rise had to restrain him when Souji tried to climb into the TV
"Sensei calm down, we are not going to be able to save her if we just jump in all reckless without a plan." Teddie tried to calm him down
"Souji, we need help before we just jump into a world full of shadows, and especially not when Kyuubi and the other guy could be in there." Rise shouted. Souji took a deep breath
"We need Kanji and the others." Souji spoke with anger in his voice.
Teddie and Rise woke to find Souji sitting in silence in front of the TV. "Sensei, are you ok?" Teddie asked quietly
"It wouldn't take me!" Souji remarked
"What wouldn't take you Senpai?" Rise asked
"The fog! I begged it for hours to take me instead of Nanako, but it never came." Souji answered with tears in his eyes.
"Sensei this isn't good for you, she is still alive." Teddie told him
"How could you possibly know that?!" Souji shouted
"The fog hasn't set in on this side yet, we still have time," Rise backed Teddie up "Come on lets go get help." Rise urged him
"Ok, but we cannot involve Naoto!" Souji stated
"Why not Sensei?" Teddie asked confused
"Naoto will tell Dojima and do you really want to put him through all that!" Souji answered seriously
Between them Rise and Souji gathered his friends excluding Naoto while Teddie waited in his human form at the old hotel that Rise owned "You are probably wondering why we gathered you all here" Rise asked
"We guessed you guys wanted to hang out but with the look on Soujis face I am starting to very much doubt that" Kanji answered.
"Nanako has been kidnapped" Souji stated
"Why aren't you talking to the police?" Chie asked concerned
"We are the only ones that can help." Teddie answered
"And what can we do to help?" Kanji asked
"Nanako has been taken by a shadow." Rise answered
"Like that thing from Nanakos birthday?" Yukiko asked.
"Yes but its much more powerful than Kyuubi." Teddie answered.
"How do we save Nanako?" Yosuke asked.
"We go to its world and rescue her from him!" Souji answered.
"Its world, what do you mean?" Yukiko asked confused.
Souji stood up and walked over to the TV and put his hand through the gate leading to the TV world.
"How did you?" Kanji was shocked
"We don't have time to be asking stupid questions, we don't have much time to save Nanako before Dojima realises she is gone." Rise stated. They all nodded and followed Rise into the TV.
"What the hell?" Kanji shouted as he fell, the others just screamed and kept their eyes closed where as to Souji, Rise and Teddie it was just another trip to TV world. They were all amazed at what they saw, including Souji.
The TV world had changed so much, it was no longer like a TV set it was more like "Hey does this place remind anyone else of Inaba?" Souji asked
"Actually it does." Rise answered.
"Yeah this place changed a lot, it was just before your parents were attacked Souji." Teddie informed them
"I wonder, since last time they used the midnight channel to get people, this place looked like a TV set but now they are being dragged from their homes so it just looks like where they have been taken from." Souji thought out loud
"That makes sense Sensei, people with abnormal amounts of spiritual energy and those who can summon persona have reflections here." Teddie continued
"What's a reflection?" Yukiko asked
"It represents you at that particular time when the energy you posses rises, although people whose emotions are strong appear here too it's like they are being sensed over here and they go after them in the real world." Teddie answered
