A/N: Before I start my next chapter I wanted to make some thank you's and Thank you to ceadeus-slayer for your help with the I am thou part. I promise I'll go back and fix that part soon hopefully. I appreciate the help since I had a feeling I had messed that part up a bit.
As for the 'Bearsona' in chapter 3 I believe it was. It's something Teddie often refers to his persona as in the game or I hear Bearsona instead of persona. But since Teddie likes to make bear puns I figured I'd stick it in. Anyways still thanks to everyone for their nice reviews. I am by no means an expert of Persona and I might mess up in the future on a character or two.
As for the next part of business I took your ideas for who will be coupled up with who in mind and it will be Yu/Yukiko, Yosuke/Chie, and most likely Kanji/Naoto.
Anyways as for the last part I have a question that if you would like to comment on I'd appreciate it.
The question is: How would you feel about Minato appearing in the story?
I don't have any idea quite yet on how he'll be back but if you want to see him I'll think of a way.
Anyways that's all of the my authors note so I'll start the next chapter now.
Chapter 4
Naoto was at police headquarters looking at old police files of Tatsumi Port Island.
She wasn't having any luck locating anything on the man Yu had seen in the store and began to wonder if he even existed.
No she couldn't think like that because she believed Yu when he told her what he saw.
"The only possible conclusion is his existence is sealed away," Naoto said, "Someone must have made it look like he never existed."
As far as she knew however only one group seemed to have that sort of power at the time.
"The Kirijo group," She said, "They must have had the records sealed."
She was familiar with the name and it's reputation for being rather secretive yet powerful.
She had heard that years ago the owner of the group died and his daughter Mitsuru Kirijo eventually took over.
However she found that his death was labeled as him dying of a sickness but something told Naoto that this was also a lie.
"I'm getting nowhere with these records," Naoto said, "I need to talk to someone from the group."
She put away the files and soon went to talk to Mitsuru Kirijo who she hoped would give her answers.
She learned of her location at a local Inn and made it in to talk to her.
"What is it?" Mitsuru asked, "I'll help you anyway I can."
"I need some information," Naoto said, "I'm hoping you could give it to me."
"What is it?" Mitsuru asked.
"You were a student when your father died correct?" Naoto asked.
"Yes," Mitsuru said.
"You claimed he died of a sickness didn't you?" Naoto asked.
"Yes," Mitsuru said, "what does this have to do with your investigation?"
"During that time strange things had been happening in Tatsumi Port Island and your group seems to have been hiding things," Naoto said.
"How so?" Mitsuru asked.
"Disappearances of people at night," Naoto said, "And no mention of them being claimed as missing."
"Well that happens a lot in this world," Mitsuru said, "That's hardly proof."
"Not yet," Naoto said, "But I know of a witness who saw a man that people said they saw there years ago talking about the end."
Mitsuru seemed to tense up at that comment and Naoto would have to investigate that fact.
"I remember reading once a document of a scientist who claims your group may have been responsible for the instances on Tatsumi port Island," Naoto said, "However it's recently disappeared along with the scientist."
"You have no direct proof to accuse me of this," Mitsuru said, "I believe it's time you leave miss Shirogane."
Naoto got escorted out of the building and knew now that Mitsuru was hiding something and she was going to find out what it was.
She pulled out her phone and called Yu.
Yu meanwhile was eating dinner waiting for his parents to get home when he saw a story come up on Inaba near Junes.
"Police are still unclear what caused the explosion but they say no one was harmed in the blast," The reporter said.
"An explosion?" Yu asked and wondered if he should call Yosuke.
Before he could even reach Yosuke on his contact list his phone went off and he saw it was from Naoto.
"Hello?" He asked.
"Yu I've looked at my files but I found nothing but I'm certain it's been hidden from the public," Naoto said, "I questioned someone who might know but all I got was more questions."
"You know you don't have to do this," Yu said, "I don't want you to get into any trouble just for me."
"I don't mind," Naoto said, "I'm doing this for myself as well…there are too many unanswered questions."
'I wonder if this is what Igor meant…' Yu thought.
"Anyways I'll keep looking," Naoto said, "I want to figure this out myself."
"Alright just be careful okay?" Yu asked.
"I will," Naoto said, "I should get back to work."
Naoto hung up and Yu heard his phone ring again.
This time it was Yosuke and he answered.
"Partner you won't believe this," Yosuke said, "We met this kid and his dog in Junes and later they were attacked by this guy with a grenade of some kind."
"Yeah he wanted them to come with him or something," Teddie said, "He smelled bad."
"Anyways he summoned a persona and we ended up getting ours and scared him off," Yosuke said, "man he was surprised though."
"Yeah he ran off scared," Teddie said.
"You mean he saw you?" Yu asked.
"Yeah," Yosuke said, "why is that bad?"
"Well as long as he didn't know your names I guess not," Yu said, "Just be careful alright?"
"Why what's going on?" Yosuke asked.
"Naoto seems to think that this is connected to something that happened in the past I think," Yu said, "but it's being hidden by someone."
"Oh man…" Yosuke said, "Now I feel like I screwed up."
"Well it should be fine if you guys be careful," Yu said, "Was this about that explosion near Junes?"
"You heard about it?" Yosuke asked.
"On the news," Yu said.
"Oh that's good," Yosuke said, "Hey listen I know this isn't really that big but we're thinking of coming to see you during break."
"Sure that'd be great," Yu said, "I have a feeling we'll have to fight again at this rate."
"I hope not," Yosuke said.
"Hey I have to go I'll talk to you later Yosuke," Yu said.
"Okay later partner," Yosuke said hanging up.
He heard his parents come in and suddenly felt exhausted strangely.
"Yu honey are you feeling okay?" His mother asked.
"Yeah I think I'll just get some sleep," Yu said.
He went to his room and went to bed.
He woke up again in the Velvet room and looked around.
"Welcome to the Velvet Room," Igor said.
"You've no doubt found the mystery you need to solve," Margaret said, "And that you need help to understand your enemy."
"Yeah…" Yu said, "But I'm not sure the other group wants to work with us."
"In order to figure out the truth you must find a way to work together," Igor said, "without it the mystery will continue."
"Right easy for you to say," Yu said.
He heard footsteps and Igor looked up.
"Oh here's our other guest," Igor said, "I trust you've met."
Yu looked behind him to see the girl with blonde hair.
"Hello my name is Aigis," She said, "It's nice to meet you."
