"So that's the one you were talking about Teddie?" Kanji asked as the Investigation team entered the room only to see a humanoid police officer like shadow with a hole in it's torso and a key inside the hole

"It has to be, it's the only one in here." Chie said.

"Right, then let's take it down." Yu said calmly as a card descended into his hand. "Izanagi, Rakunda."

"Good thinking partner, alright Yukiko-san let's take this guy down." Yosuke said with a grin. "Lets go Pyro Jack."

"Right, come Konohana Sakuya." Yukiko said before the two personas appeared.

"Agilao." Yosuke and Yukiko said simultaneously as a flame engulfed the shadow.

"Alright that should have done some damage." Kanji said confidently only for a gust of wind to suddenly hit him knocking him off his feet.

"Kanji-kun." Chie said nervously. "Tomoe, Tarukaja."

Just as Chie said that, the shadow emerged from the flames and tried to encase her in a block of ice only for Tomoe to shatter it.

"Izanagi, Zio." Yu said quickly just before a bolt of lighting struck the shadow sending it crashing to the ground.

"Payback time you freak." Kanji said while getting to his feet.

"We're right behind you Kanji." Yu said as the five persona users ran towards the shadow and started relentlessly attacking it.

"Did that get him?" Yosuke asked as the persona users backed away from the shadow only for it to get back to its feet and draw a gun before shooting it at Chie. "I guess not."

"Take-Mikazuchi, Zionga." Kanji said suddenly just before another bolt of lighting struck the shadow sending it crashing to the ground.

"Change, Valkyrie." Yu said quickly. "Yosuke, Chie, Yukiko."

"Got it, come out Jack Frost." Yosuke said confidently.

"Protect me Tomoe." Chie said as her persona appeared.

"Come, Sarasvati." Yukiko said calmly.

"Bufula." the four persona users said together as a block of ice enveloped the shadow.

"That had to do something." Yosuke said as the shadow weakly got to its feet. "Oh come on, what else do we have to throw at this guy?"

Just as Yosuke said that, Chie ran towards the shadow and destroyed it with a kick.

"I guess that's what we had to throw at the shadow Yosuke." Yu said thoughtfully.

"Hold on, did it drop anything for Kanji-kun?" Chie asked.

"Huh, now that you mention it yeah." Kanji said before walking over and picking up a shield. "Nice, this just might come in handy."

"Alright, in that case we should head back." Yu said before crushing a goho-M as a flash of light enveloped the Investigation Team

"Welcome to the Velvet Room." Igor said calmly. "How can I be of assistance?"

"Actually, Yukiko and I were planning on going to Okina City tomorrow for some shopping and maybe to see a movie." Chie said. "We came by to ask if Marie-chan wanted to come with us."

"Huh, sure whatever." Marie said thoughtfully.

"Cool, we'll pick you up after school." Chie said with a smile.

"Is that all you came to discuss?" Margaret asked calmly.

"Well, it's all I came here for." Chie said. "I'll see you guys later ok?"

"Alright, see you Chie." Yosuke said as Chie left the Velvet Room.

"Is there something you require?" Igor asked calmly.

"Not now, but we really appreciate all your help." Yu said calmly.

"Well then, until we meet again." Igor said calmly.

"Welcome home big bro." Nanako said happily.

"Thanks Nanako, how was your day?" Yu asked curiously.

"It was ok." Nanako said thoughtfully. "Big bro, can I ask you something?"

"Sure, what is it Nanako?" Yu asked.

"Well, um… what happens to people after they die?" Nanako asked.

"After they die, well they go to heaven." Yu said.

"Heaven, so that's where mom is." Nanako said quietly.

"I'm sure it is, and I'm sure she's proud of you too." Yu said.

"Yay." Nanako said with a smile. "Oh, but…"

"What's wrong Nanako?" Yu asked.

"It's just, why do bad people do bad things big bro?" Nanako asked.

"You mean why people commit crimes?" Yu asked. "I wish I knew, but I just don't."

"Oh, that just means you're not a bad person." Nanako said thoughtfully. "Thank you big bro."

Thou hast strengthened thy genuine bond… It leads thee closer to the truth… Thou power to fuse Justice Personas has increased.

"Nanako, I'm home." Dojima said walking into the room.

"Welcome back dad." Nanako said with a smile.

"You sound happy." Dojima said.

"Yeah, she does." Yu said. "Good night uncle, I promised some friends I'd hang out with them tomorrow."

"Alright, good night." Dojima said calmly.

"Night big bro." Nanako said with a smile.

"Oh there they are." Chie said as Yu and Marie walked up to her and Yukiko.

"Good morning, do you two want to head to the stores now?" Yukiko asked politely.

"Alright, that sounds like a good idea." Yu said thoughtfully. "Oh, but when does the movie start Chie?"

"Don't worry, we have plenty of time before the movie." Chie said.

"That sounds good, then after you two." Yu said calmly before the four of them walked into a clothing store.

"Ok, let's see here." Chie said before picking up a shirt. "Oh, this looks nice. What do you guys think?"

"It looks nice to me Chie." Yu said.

"It's green, don't you already have a green shirt?" Marie asked.

"Huh, well now that you mention it I could see if they have any other colors." Chie said thoughtfully as Yukiko walked up with a red skirt.

"What do you think about this one Chie?" Yukiko asked.

"It looks nice, but Marie-chan has a point. I buy a lot of green and you buy a lot of red Yukiko." Chie said.

"Really, I hadn't thought about it like that." Yukiko said. "Oh, why don't we switch for today?"

"Maybe, oh yeah do you see anything?" Chie asked.

"Was I supposed to?" Marie asked in confusion.

"Well yeah, it's part of the fun." Chie said.

"She's right, it's nice to spend time with your friends Marie-chan." Yukiko said politely.

(The Investigation Team managed to defeat the Intolerant Officer, and now Yu is continuing to strengthen his social links. Next chapter Yosuke will make a suggestion regarding the school trip. As always any reviews or critique is appreciated.)
