"Come on we're almost there" Nagisa said as a group comprising of him, Okano, Maehara, Kanzaki, Terasaka and a weird Bear looking thing rushed ahead.
"dude, I've seen better places to pick up chicks" Maehara said
"We're in a damn strip club" Terasaka said
"So?" Maehara said
"We're here to save Toka Yada!" Nagisa said
"To think a famous pop star lived in our town"
"That's Inaba for you" Nagisa said
"You've only been here a few months city boy" Maehara said
"Guys we're here. The VIP Lounge" Kanzaki said spreading out her fan
"Let's go rescue a pop idol" Okano said leading the charge.
Once inside they spotted two Yadas, one in a school uniform on the floor and the other one in a gold bikini on a stripper's pole.
"Time to take it all off" the pole dancing Yada said
"Oh yeah" Maehara said
"Knock it off" Okano said
"This is the real me, not the innocent little girl I pretend to be, I'm a fine catch with a lot of skills. I can break a lot of boys heart with just a wink" Shadow Yada said
"So what should we do
"That's not me" Yada whispered
"SO if I'm not the real you than who are you?"
"Get ready" Nagisa said pulling out a card so did the others
"I think we should try and attack first" Maehara said spinning a pair of kunai
"I've got you back" Kanzaki said pulling out her peacock fan
"Yeah" Terasaka said smacking a steel plate
"YOU'RE NOT ME!" Yada cried as the shadow Yada was shrouded in a black and red mist
"I am shadow, thy true self" it said
"That's just ugly!" Okano said
Standing in front of them was a larger looking creature with a rainbow pattern with a massive stripper pole and a satellite dish like head.
"That's not good" Maehara said as something passed by them.
'That didn't feel alright' Nagisa thought. "Melee attacks for now" he said running forward with a katana. Once Nagisa's attack was about to hit Shadow Yada was stopped dead.
"Agi!" Kanzaki said as her persona Konohana Sakuya showed up and launched a fireball, which was stopped by a shield of ice.
"Bullshit" Terasaka said dealing with some police like shadows.
"What's going on?" Okano asked as each Persona was hit with their elemental weaknesses
"She scanned out Personas to find out what their attacks and weaknesses are, TEDDIE Get Yada out of here" Nagisa said
"But"
"Just do it!" Nagisa said as another card descended "KAZEJIN!" Nagisa said as a what was basically an Armoured Tornado appeared "GARUFU!"
"Not going to work" it said
"How about this: IZANAGI ZIO!" Nagisa shouted as a bright light appeared and attempted to shock the thing
"TEDDIE!" the group shouted as their bear companion unleashed the light destroying Shadow Yada
"This system has overloaded!" the shadow screamed
"Teddie are you okay?" Nagisa asked
"I'm fine" Teddie said as he flat and floating in the air just off the ground.
"You saved me" Yada said before turning to her shadow, stumbling as she walked over to her
"Take it easy" Nagisa said
"Its been ages since I heard that" Yada said "I'm sorry. I struggled alot to discover who was the true me, then I realise that I couldn't find what I was looking for, because it was impossible to find"
"There's no real me" Teddie whimpered
"But now I know, the idol, the fatale and you are all apart of me" Yada said as the shadow smiled and shattered before becoming a figure in a beautiful dress with the satellite dish array for a face, and in her hands was a crown. Soon the figure became a card and entered Yada's sould
"Easy" Nagisa said catching her as she started to fall
"I'm Nagisa Shiota and that is Izanagi" Nagisa said reffered to his kinght like persona
"I'm Hinata Okano, and that is Tomoe" the sporty girl said pointing out the jumpsuit wearing samurai holding a twin lance
"Terasaka at your service and this is Take-Mikazuchi" the bruiser of the group introduce himself and his robot liek Persona with a skeleton on the front
"I'm Maehara and the Frog ninja is Jiraiya" Maehara said
"I'm Yukiko Kanzaki and this is Konohana Sakuya" Kanzaki bowed while introducing her to the female Super Sentai looking Persona with a cape of flowers.
"And you've already met...TEDDIE BEHIND YOU!" Nagisa shouted as a massive golden eyed version appeared
"WHAT THE HELL!" Maehara shouted out
"I am the shadow of thine's truth" as the Massive Teddy Bear became massive and started to look Broken toy "And if you look for the truth, you will never know if it is thurth or Deception"
"PERSONA!" Nagisa said as Izanagi moved in to attack. "Something's wrong"
"I've got an idea, just make sure Himiko doesn't get blown away" Yada said "PERSONA"
"Got it, IZANAGI!" Nagisa shouted getting Izanagi to hold Himiko while she helped Yada scan the Titanic Teddie.
"Take, get in there" Terasaka shouted
"JIRAIYA!" Maeahara said as he gripped onto Okano as the two personas attacked.
"Something's in there alright" Yada said as Okano was hit by an attack making her dizzy/
"AGI!" Kanzaki said as her persona launched a fire ball to hit the monster.
"THERE!" Yada cheered "underneath his chest something's there"
"GO Izanagi!" Nagisa ordered as he held onto Yada. Izanagi spotted the object a ball with blunted spikes in it.
"GET IT!" the others said as the Persona stabbed it, making Nagisa get a glimpse of an eye that looked like a camera's lens.
"What was that?" He asked as the Shadow broke apart and became the first Shadow teddy while the Other Teddie was flat
"It's sad not knowing who you are, and the answers I sought out scared me so I didn't look fearing waht I wouldn't like waht I found , but now I'm still here and I'm beary much alive"
"I agree, let's find our answers together." Yada said
"And remember Teddie, you are no where near alone" Nagisa smiled
"You're a part of our team" Maehara said
"You guys, I'm such a lucky little bear" he cried as the shadow became something he didn't expect. I rotund red robot with a missile and cape.
"A persona" Teddie gasped as a card fluttered into his hands "My beary own Persona
"Well today's been a good day" Nagisa said
Back in his own world Nagisa checked the Midnight channel seeing nothing but static brought a smile to his face
"Well done team, and let's hopefully not return to the midnight channel soon" he sighed collapsing on his bed. 'But something may not give us a choic in the matter; there is something out there obscuring the truth. And the Inaba investigation team will find it before dragging it out so we can reach the truth!" he thought
G'day guys Grizz here with a new crossover, Persona 4, I actually got into this by watching some of the dub at Supanova, (a convention in Australia) one year and thought that it was weird and paid no mind to it, a while later I found the dub online and watched it, and found it was awesome, so I went out and got the fighting games and anime when they were released on DVD (I didn't have a Blu-ray player yet) The section this chapter was inspired by was Rise's dungeon where they fought Shadow Rise and Shadow Teddie! Now each character is a stand in for a P4 character: Nagisa-Yu/protagonist, Maehara-Yosuke, Okano-Chie, Kanzaki-Yukiko, Terasaka-Kanji, Yada-Rise and kept Teddie in as well.
Fun fact: The director of Persona 4 the animation is also the director of previous crossover My Bride is a Mermaid and Assassination Classroom!
SO until next time I'll catch you on the flipside =D
