Ataru and Hikari arrived at LeBlanc thirty minutes later and went in they saw everyone was already there, they all looked at them as Ataru walked in holding Hikari "Good morning" Ataru said nodding as Hikari waved at them "Hi everybody!" Shiho looked over at them "Oh there she is!" she said taking Hikari from Ataru and kissing her cheek "Hi Mommy!" Hikari replied as she snuggled into her.

Ryuji smiled as he looked at Ataru "So Ataru what's this meeting about anyway?" he asked curiously as Ataru took a seat and sighed "This is probably gonna sound farfetched... but last night when I was sleeping I got taken to a place called the Velvet Room where I talked with a man that had the longest nose in history" when Ren heard that he sat up straight and looked shocked "You talked with Igor and Lavenza?" he asked curiously as Ataru nodded.

Ren sighed "Guess I'm not the only one Igor likes to annoy now..." he said with a chuckle as Ataru looked at him "Guess not... anyway he told me some old acquaintances of his would be dropping by here either today or tomorrow and that this Demon King Mordecai fellow has escaped and is threatening to combine the Metaverse with the real world so he can rule both worlds, Igor wants us to team up with his associates whoever they are to take him down" he explained with a nod.

They all looked shocked by all this as Akemi looked over she had Rosanna on her lap and was petting her gently making her purr softly Rosanna had a new collar around her neck that had a bell and a license on it with her name as well as Akemi's cell number on it "Wonder who these associates are..." she said as a red four door car pulled up outside of LeBlanc and several people exited the vehicle then went into LeBlanc.

The gang all took a look and gasped when they saw a boy with a grey bowl shaped haircut and grey eyes wearing blue jeans and a white t-shirt side hugging a girl with long copper colored hair tied into pigtails and brown eyes she was wearing a light blue sundress and red flat shoes, they were accompanied five other people all of which besides one are side hugging each other too, one of them has slightly unkempt fawn colored hair and brown eyes he's wearing blue jeans and a white V-neck shirt with a pair of headphones around his neck.

The girl he was side hugging has a light brown bowl cut hairstyle and brown eyes she's wearing a green jacket and black mini skirt, right behind them was a rather tall man with a bleached blonde sweptback crewcut and widows peak hairstyle with grey eyes and a scar above his right eye he too is wearing blue jeans and a white t-shirt, next to him is a woman with short blue hair and grey eyes wearing a dark blue sundress and red flat shoes the other one who's by himself has short blonde hair pulled to the side and bright blue eyes he's wearing a white blouse like shirt that has a red rose on it and white pants.

They all look at each other before Ryuji smiles "Oh my god aren't you guys the Investigation Team that solved that murder up in Inaba!?" he asked as Akemi put Rosanna on the table then got up to hug the boy with the grey bowl cut hair who hugged her back then nodded at Ryuji "That we are, my names Yu Narukami and this here is my lovely and talented wife Rise... over here we have Chie Hanamura and her husband Yosuke Hanamura as well as Kanji Tatsumi and his lovely wife Naoto and last but certainly not least this is Teddie" Yu replied as he pointed at them while introducing them.

Ren smiled "Wow I can't believe it was you guys Igor told Ataru here about..." he replied getting up to shake hands while Akemi looked at Yu "It's been so long Yu..." she said to him as Yu nodded at her "Yeah I wasn't expecting you to be here of all places, how have you been?" Akemi smiled "I've been terrific matter of fact this is my boyfriend Ryuji" she replied pointing at him as Ryuji "It's an honor and a half really" Ryuji said with an awestruck look on his face.

Yu chuckled "So I'm guessing you guys are the Phantom Thieves we've heard about?" he asked curiously as Ataru stood up to shake hands too "That's us yup!" Ataru said to him with a nod "Excellent so Igor was telling the truth then..." Yu replied as Morgana jumped up onto table next to his sister "Wow who knew there would be more Persona users in the world besides us?" he said with a chuckle as Yu looked at him "You know... normally seeing a talking cat would surprise me but having delt with personas and the metaverse for so long nothing surprises me anymore especially since Teddie here used to dress up in a huge teddy bear looking outfit" he said laughing hysterically.

Ataru laughed "Really? my daughter Hikari would've swarmed you if she saw you in it she loves her teddy bears" he said pointing at her on Shiho's lap, Hikari held up the teddy she was holding "Daddy's not lying I even got my favorite one right here" Teddie laughed as he looked at her "Now that's cute" Ataru smiled as he sat back down "So uh how do we go about defeating this Demon King Mordecai?" he asked curiously as everyone sat back down "Well obviously we need to go to the metaverse but the question remains of where in the metaverse he is cause he could be anywhere right now" Rosanna said jumping back down on to Akemi's lap.

Yu nodded "Agreed... perhaps Igor might know he does run the metaverse after all but I'm not sure how to contact him out here" Ataru smiled as he held up a hand "Well he did pull me into the velvet room last night perhaps we'll get lucky and he'll do it again or he'll do the same with Ren instead" he suggested as he scratched his chin "I guess that can work but this is one thing we can't dawdle on for too long" Yu replied nodding.

Ataru nodded "Agreed but for now lets have some coffee and get to know each other better... if we're gonna fight together it's best to be on the same page" he replied as he looked over at Sojiro and asked him to get coffee for everyone and that he'd be paying for it all "Coffee sounds good actually... we had a long trip here" Yosuke said nodding as he scratched his stomach.

They all started talking amongst themselves and getting to know each other for soon the battle to decide the fate of humanity was soon to start as the scene shifted to the outside of a dark foreboding castle covered in a thick black smog where a dark amused cackle can be heard from inside.
