"Hmm? What the...?" Naoto stared in amazement at the glowing sapphire blue door in front of her. Its golden patterns seemed to give it an elegant touch as Minato just smiled at her.

"Oh, you can see it? Well after you." She turned to him with a confused expression on her face as he just smiled knowingly. "Don't worry. I've been in this place before. It's where Elizabeth was from."

"Ah... Okay..." Trusting in her cousin she hesitantly stepped forwards before gently opening the supposedly floating door...

"Hmm... Where...?" The young detective's eyes widened at the sight before her.

"Welcome. To the Velvet Room. My name is Igor, and this is my assistant Margaret." The creepy man from the opposite side of a blue coffee table. His eyes large and vainly as he stared at her with the kind of grin you would see from a horror movie!

"Don't worry Naoto. This place isn't dangerous. In fact I bet Souji-kun came here when he was the wild card in the murder case."She stared blankly at him before her gaze returned to Igor. How did they get here? Where was the Velvet Room? How does Minato know these people? Whats a Wild Card? How...

"All in due time. Now then, this is a place between dream and reality, mind and matter. This is in fact where your friend came for guidance in the past and where its services are now available to the two of you." Igor pressed on to prevent anymore questioning thoughts from Naoto. "His abilities were extraordinary indeed, but now his power has been passed onto you. Just like your powers were passed on to your friend before." He gave a glance towards Minato before drawing a card from nowhere.

"Is that...?" Naoto stared at it curiously.

"That's your Arcana, right?" Minato spoke up beside her and she nodded in response.

"Ah. It would seem a rather dangerously interesting future lies ahead of you." That creepy voice almost sent shivers down her spine as he spoke.

The residents of the Velvet Room briefly explained about the Wild Card abilities and the services they offered, with her cousin pitching in to help her understand when they spoke in cryptic riddles.

"Okay... So I have the ability to wield multiple Personas just like Souji once did. I can then fuse the Personas I gain to create better and stronger ones. I can get bonuses and extra abilities for the Personas from building social links and obtaining skill cards that can give them certain abilities. Um... Is there anything I missed?" Glancing up at Minato and the residents of the room she believed she had summed everything up...

"Yep. That's pretty much it. I also have the same ability. Don't worry. I'll help you with anything you don't understand. I also know the combinations for a ton of Personas so I can tell you some stuff about that." Her cousin smiled at her as she turned to him.

"Thank you. If I need your advice for anything regarding this I'll let you know."

"Well then. It would appear that our time is over. So, until next time." With that the room dissolved in front of her leaving her staring dumbstruck at the door again.

"You okay there?" Minato grinned at her amazed expression before chuckling as she glared at him. "Anyway, let's go."

"I'm back!" Naoto called to whoever was around to hear her. "Grampa?" With Minato at her side she wandered into the living room in the hopes of finding her grandfather. "There's someone here to see you!"

"Ah. Nao-chan. I was wondering where you'd –" He froze as the older Shirogane noticed who stood by her side. "Minato? How..." His confused expression made the two of them smile at him kindly.

"It's a... Long story..." Minato explained calmly.

"Hmm, hmm. Well its great to have you back, kid." He chuckled as they embraced each other.

The night went by rather uneventfully as the three of them conversed with each other for hours before finally retreating to their rooms.

"Minato, you can use the spare room here. Well, I'll see you tomorrow. Goodnight!"

"Er... Naoto? I um..." The young detective turned back to him curiously as he spoke up.

"What is it?"

"I... Um... Don't have anything other then this..." Naoto stared at him in confusion before she clicked onto what he was trying to tell her.

"Ah. Well... We can get you some more clothes tomorrow, so I suppose you'll just have to make do with what you have until then."

"Okay. Well, goodnight Ace." He smiled at her gratefully before turning to enter his room.

"Goodnight, Minnie." She smiled as she walked away...

"Wait for it..." Minato whispered to Naoto as she, Tantei and him were all hiding behind the couch with water pistols in their hands. And mouth... Tantei actually had a squeezy bottle held sideways in his mouth, in a way that he could use it.

After a few moments the door creaked open as someone entered the room.

"Minato-sama?" Yakushiji, the estate secretary called to the supposedly empty room. "Naoto-sama?"

"Now!" Minato gave the signal as they heard the door shut behind him. At that moment the three of them leapt out from behind the couch firing the water pistol and squeezy bottle at the unsuspecting secretary!

"Argh!" He screeched as he instantly became soaked in water. The two blue haired teens burst out laughing as he panicked and swiftly exited the room.

"Naoto-sama! Minato-sama! I wanted to tell you that there is someone here to see you!" He called angrily from the opposite side of the door. The pair of them hardly heard them as they laughed at their easy victory.

"Victory!" Minato cried causing Naoto to mimic him before they burst out laughing again.

"Naoto-sama! Minato-sama! Souji-san and Rise-san are here to see you!" This time they heard him call to them before they quickly resumed their position behind the couch.

"Okay. Well can you send them through please?" The young detective called back to him and after a few moments the door opened as two people entered the room. There wasn't much water left in their weapons but who cares?

"Naoto-kun? Minato-kun?" Rise's uneasy voice was followed by a screech as the three of them attacked again! After a few moments the two blue haired cousins burst out laughing at their victims stunned and panicked expressions.

"Victory!" Minato called again and was soon followed by Naoto and a bark from Tantei before the laughter took them again.

"What the hell guys?!" Rise yelled at them in agitation before turning to Souji.

"Don't worry Rise. It'll dry..." His voice was equally annoyed as he tried to keep himself calm.

"At least now we know why Yakushiji-san came back wet..." She mumbled as the two laughing attackers calmed down. "Come on guys! What was that for?"

"Bad timing!" Naoto grinned at them mischievously joyful.

"Yeah! That was only meant for Yakushiji-san! But you two came when we still had loaded weapons!" Minato chimed in nonchalantly.

"Geez... We only came to tell you about the meeting at Junes because both your phones are off!" The idols agitated reasoning earned a confused look from them both.

"Really? I thought they were on... Oh." She spoke as she checked her phone for messages only to find that the screen was blank. "Uh... Sorry about that Rise-san..."

"Why are you apologising? They could have just called me instead."

"You never gave us your number." Souji's annoyed expression just brought a smile to their faces.

"Uh... Well would you like me to fetch you a towel, or something?"

"That would be great. Thank you Naoto." He had a look that just said 'I'll get you back for this!' as he replied to her.

"Okay! Is everyone here?" Everyone nodded as Yosuke spoke to the team. "Okay then! We should go into the TV to see whats causing trouble. Right partner?" Souji nodded before turning towards Naoto and Minato.

"Hey sensei... Is Nao-chan and Minnie-kun going to be sensei from now on?" Teddie perked up curiously.

"Hmm... That might be a good idea. After all you said so yourself that you led that SEES group and Naoto knows us all well enough by now so that's probably the best thing to do at the moment. You two are also the only ones with Personas now and with one of you being a wild card as well." He replied calmly as the two of them glanced at each other.

"Come on guys! Souji-kun's still the leader and if he tells you to then you can't back down right?" Chie's persuading voice made them both smile calmly.

"Okay. Well, if that's how it is then that's how it is." Minato nodded as he turned to Naoto. "What about you?"

"Well Souji-senpai is leader until we both accept it so I'll lead alongside you. If that's what everyone else think would be best." Everyone nodded reassuringly as she finished.

"Then it's decided! Naoto-kun and Minato-kun will lead the group! Good luck guys!"

"Woooo! I have two Sensei's now!" The two of them smiled at Teddie kindly as he grinned from ear to ear in his usual excitement.

"Okay then. Let's get going!"
