"Hello my dear viewers welcome to another fascinating episode of Bad, Bad Bathhouse." Kanji said revealing himself to be naked except for a towel. "Today I'll introduce you all to a place of true passion and romance."

"Well he's been thrown inside the TV for sure." Yu said thoughtfully.

"I Kanji Tatsumi have managed to penetrate this magnificent facility and intend to see what secrets like inside, no matter what the risks." Kanji said with a grin before walking into a foggy room.

The moment the midnight channel ended, Yu's phone started to ring.

"Dude, did you see that?" Yosuke asked in a panic. "I mean that was just crazy."

"Yeah, I know. We can talk about it tomorrow with Chie and Yukiko." Yu said calmly.

"You're right, actually speaking of those two which one's your type." Yosuke asked. "Just between us though."

"Honestly, neither." Yu said calmly.

"Huh, well I guess that makes sense since you saw their worst sides first." Yosuke said thoughtfully. "Well I'll see you tomorrow partner."

"Right." Yu said in agreement.

"What now, even when we knew who the victim was going to be we couldn't catch the culprit." Chie said in frustration.

"I know, but the important thing is to keep his shadow from going berserk. We should head in after school." Yu said.

"Yeah you're right. Maybe Kanji saw something we missed." Yukiko said thoughtfully.

"Hopefully." Yosuke said.

"Hey Teddie, we need your help again." Yosuke said walking up to him. "Huh, what's wrong with you?"

"We really need your help Teddie." Chie said.

"Oh Chie-chan, I really want to help you but my nose hasn't been working as well recently, I can smell something but I can't tell where it is anymore." Teddie said sadly.

"Do you think you could try again?" Yukiko asked.

"Maybe, but it would be easier if I knew more about the person you were looking for." Teddie said before inhaling deeply. "I think I've got something… No it's gone again."

"Alright, if you need to know more about Kanji we'll get the information for you." Yu said calmly before the four persona users exited the TV world.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"So now what, I mean we can't exactly walk up to Kanji's mother and say 'Excuse me can you tell us about your son so we can protect him from his innermost emotions in another world.' it sounds completely insane." Yosuke said quietly.

"No, but if we can find the boy who he was talking with and find out what about Kanji interested him that might be enough." Yu said.

"So we just need to find that other boy, in that case if any of us find him text and we'll meet up back here." Yukiko said. "Though if it gets too late we'll go in tomorrow."

"Right, ok guys let's find that kid." Chie said confidently.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Huh is that him, Yu thought. "Excuse me, can I talk to you for a minute?"

"Oh, you were at the textile shop the other day. Is there something you needed?" the slim boy asked calmly.

"Actually I was wondering if I could ask about Kanji." Yu said. "My friend Yukiko said she was worried and I thought maybe you knew something since I noticed him leaving school with you yesterday."

"I see, well you must have your reasons." the slim boy said thoughtfully. "To be honest while I was speaking with Tatsumi-san I couldn't help but feel there was something peculiar about him. As if he had a complex of some sort."

"I see, well thank you very much." Yu said before walking off and taking out his cell phone.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"Oh, you're looking for that polite young man from the other day?" Kanji's mother asked politely.

"Yes ma'am, we were wondering if you knew where we could find him." Yukiko said.

"I'm sorry, but I don't know where he would be. Though he did say that he would be staying in Inaba for business of some kind." Kanji's mother said. "I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help."

"Oh, that's ok." Chie said. "Thanks though."

With those words Chie and Yukiko walked out of the textile shop just before they got a text message.

"Oh, Yu-kun found him." Yukiko said. "He says we should meet up at Junes tomorrow."

"Right, we'll save Kanji-kun for sure." Chie said enthusiastically.

"Welcome home big bro." Nanako said with a smile.

"Thanks Nanako, your dad is working late again?" Yu asked.

"Yeah." Nanako said sadly.

"Well maybe we can hang out with everybody again, I'll talk to the others tomorrow and see if we can meet up again ok?" Yu asked.

"Ok, thanks big bro." Nanako said with a smile. "Good night."

"Good night Nanako." Yu said calmly.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"So what's up partner, do we have enough to find Kanji?" Yosuke asked.

"Hopefully, we'll see when we ask Teddie." Yu said. "Oh yeah, do you guys mind if Nanako hangs out with us sometime?"

"Why do you need to ask, of course Nanako-chan can hang out with us anytime." Chie said.

"That's right, whenever Nanako-chan wants to hang out is fine." Yukiko said with a smile.

"Thanks, I'll let her know once we get back." Yu said. "With Kanji."

"Right, let's go." Yosuke said before the four of them passed through the TV.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"Oh sensei, did you get any information about this Kanji person?" Teddie asked.

"Yeah, apparently he had an odd sort of complex about him." Yu said calmly.

"A complex, wait that's it." Teddie said in shock. "Well I guess I can try to sniff really… Huh, I got something follow me."

"You heard the bear, let's go get Kanji out of here." Chie said running after Teddie.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"Hey Ted, I thought these glasses were supposed to help us see through the fog." Yosuke said.

"They do, this fog is different from the one I'm used to." Teddie said in confusion.

"Yeah, I don't think this is fog." Yu said. "So Kanji is somewhere in there."

"I'm positive." Teddie said confidently.

(The investigation team has reached the Steamy Bathhouse and is preparing to rescue Kanji. Next chapter they will reach the final floor of the dungeon. As always any reviews or critique is appreciated.)
