Persona 5 Royal Fanmake Lysandre Arc Chapter 25
Confidant Progress
The day was the first of June, Aqua was on the train heading to school. It was just as crowded as it was every other day,
"Ah….Ah-Achoo!" Gatomon sneezed as he emerges from the bag a bit. "Sorry, I couldn't hold it in. You'll have to make some kind of excuse for me."
"Now for today's Train News." The train monitor said "Today's headlines are…'Employee Posts Nude Chef Selfie!' McBurgerTown claims to have fired the employee in question. Those close to the man voiced their surprise, vouching for his seriousness at work."
"'Is Beacon Unsafe? Crime Rising!' The police are issuing warnings for people to be wary of scams." The Train Monitor continued "'Hotspots of Tokoyo!' Tickets for the Lysandre exhibit are available until June 5th!"
"The Lysandre exhibit goes on until June 5th…. That's the end of the week." Gatomon notes "We'll show him what a change of heart means!"
"Yeah" Aqua said nodding as she continues to ride the train.
It was after school Aqua goes to Central Street and sold the treasures she got from Mementos to Soundwave and them goes into the Velvet room and she fuses Kodama and Matador to make a Blue crescent Persona known as Nigi Mitama a Councellor Persona.
"I am Nigi Mitama." The Persona said with a gentle smile "Kindness is a blessing of repose. I shall become a mask and grant tranquillity to your soul."
"Welcome aboard" Aqua said smiling she also creates Kushi Mitama the one lower level then Nigi but Itemizes him to create and Aid charm. She then fuses Eligar with Jack Frost to make a Faith Persona known as Phoenix
"I am Phoenix" The bird introduced themselves "I am the true master of all winged beasts…and so, I shall become a mask and bestow peace upon thee…"
"Well, someone thinks highly of themselves" Makami said only to be shushed.
"Glad to have you Phoenix" Aqua said smiling. She then resummons Matador and Eligar to her team as well and leaves the velvet room.
She meets up with Uzi back at the school. The Worker Drone yawns and said "I'm really not digging all this sitting around junk. Hey, uh…Do you remember that guy Hans I was talking about before?"
"The mini-Gaston?" Aqua asked
"That sounds familiar." Shiki-Ouji said nodding.
"Yeah, that's him!" Uzi said nodding "Well, he's going to be the new Drone track team advisor. He don't give a scrap about the sport though…or even the students." She sighs "So you see, I heard this rumor…Apparently he's got at school before with hid drinking…but that hasn't kept him from going out."
"I was thinking, maybe he'd let some stuff slip when he's drunk" Uzi said thinking "We should totally try and tail him sometime. I'll look into where he goes to drink. What's the plan for today though? You going to train with me?"
"Sure let's hang" J said with a smile.
"Let's get changed then. We can meet at, uh…" Uzi said and thinks "Hmmm, somewhere's got to be open. Let's try looking around at school."
The two had gotten into their gym clothes and have walked around the school for a place to train. They were now walking through the pathway in the courtyard.
"Man, we really don't got a good place to train, huh…" Uzi said sighing. "I mean, we'd probably run into Lizzy and them if we stuck around here… You got any ideas?"
"We can train at my place." Aqua suggested thinking
"Hmmmm…not sure that would work but good thinking." Shiki-Ouji said thinking.
"You seariously think we'd get any training done there?" Uzi said shaking her head "I bet we'd just end up eating ice cream and playing video games all day long. That's just kind of what what happens you know."
Uzi thinks and said "…Eh, I guess it won't hurt to peek around the gym. If they ain't there, maybe we can…" They begin walking
"Hrgh!" A familiar female voice is heard grunting. They look up to see a commotion in the courtyard.
"…Lizzy?" Uzi said surprised She and Aqua run up seeing Lizzy being held by a red trap binding by a guilty looking Doll as she, another drone known as Trevor and Rebecca who seems to be leading them surround the blond drone girl "Rebecca? The robot hell you guys doing?"
"We just have a few questions for Lizzy here. It's none of your business." Rebecca said turning to them.
"So what, you going to ask her questions with your fists and weird powers?" Uzi said annoyed "And anyways, ain't a three-on-on kind of cowardly?"
"The only coward here is Lizzy!" Rebecca said in anger "All the junk Gaston put us through is her fault…She was telling that jerk secrets about us the whole time!"
"Huh? That's a load of bull!" Uzi said annoyed.
"You guys should trust Lizzy." Aqua said to them.
"Yeah, even if she did, she might have a reason" Shiki-Ouji said.
"That's right! You've been training together for freaking forever!" Uzi said nodding in agreement "Plus, ain't the Drone track team coming back? You don't got to fight!"
"…Sh-Shut up!" Rebecca said clenching her fists "I'm telling you; this piece of trash sold us out! How do you think Gaston found out about your parents, Uzi!" This surprised Aqua and Uzi.
"She's got to be a snitch!" Trevor said.
"H-Hold up!" Uzi said to them and moves and gets between Lizzy and Rebecca.
"Out of the way, Uzi. We'll beat the scrap out of you too if we need to." Rebecca said glaring.
"If you think that's going to make you feel better, go for it." Uzi told her. "…But you're going to wish you didn't. Trust me, it feels real bad looking back on lousy stuff you've done."
"Huh?" Trevor said looking at Uzi.
"Look…Even if Lizzy was working with Gaston…ain't it fine now?" Uzi tells them. "That jerk's gone, so you guys can just put this junk behind you. There's no reason to fight, yeah?"
"We can't keep people around who're going to try and undermine our team." Rebecca told her.
"But…I didn't do anything. I wasn't working with Gaston." Lizzy said struggling in the binding. "No matter how much you hit me, my answer's going to stay the same."
"Oh yeah? We've got proof." Rebecca said arms folded looking serious "Hans told us all about it."
"…Hans?" Uzi said shocked.
"Come on, Rebecca, we got to get out of here." Doll said in Russian and lets Lizzy go "It'd be real bad if anyone else showed up."
Rebecca clenches her fist and glares at Lizzy "…Lizzy. Trash like you isn't welcome on our new track team. You'd better remember that." She along with Doll and Trevor leave.
Uzi helps Lizzy up and asked "…You okay?" She shakes her head "What the heck was all that?"
"Just stay out of this, Uzi." Lizzy said turning away "It has nothing to do with you."
"But…" Uzi said concerned
Lizzy sighs and explained "When you hit Gaston, you were really hitting all of us who tried so hard to endure his garbage. You might've felt relieved, but it only made life harder for us…Because of you, we lost the one place we could vent our frustration…. the one place we could really belong." She glares at Uzi
"Tensions got pretty high after that…and things have just been kind of rough from then on." Lizzy added "…You really think its all fine now, huh? Well, what if I told you they're right about me? Would you still think it's 'fine' if I was the one who told Gaston about your parents?"
Uzi remains quiet and then said "Yeah. If you told him, you told him. I'm over all that stuff with my parents anyways. Besides…I've realized something, Lizzy. I might've messed up with Gaston back then, but hanging on to the past ain't going to help anything. I'm just going to focus on being myself now…on being free."
"What're you talking about?" Lizzy said confused and thinks "Free, huh? Haha…" She shakes her head and walks off.
"Aqua…You get what I'm trying to say, yeah?" Uzi asked her.
"Absolutely." Aqua said nodding.
"Indeed" Shiki-Ouji said with a nod.
"Right? She's the one who wasn't making any sense." Uzi said nodding and smiles "I guess being free is like…It's like how I feel when I'm talking to you, pal."
"Can you explain that?" Aqua asked.
"Yeah, me be a little slow" Shiki-Ouji said nodding.
"Uhhjh, I don't know how else to explain. I just feel…free." Uzi said thinking
"…. Huh?" Aqua said
"So, confused…" Shiki-Ouiji said.
"What, we stuck on reappear or something? Hahaha!" Uzi said smiling.
Uzi and Aqua laughed together as Aqua feels her bond growing deeper with Uzi. She sees the Chariot Arcana card go up to 6 and earned a new ability "Harisen Recovery which gives the cance to cure status aliments inflicted upon party members.
"Mannnn, that was some funny stuff." Uzi chuckles smiling "…So much for training though, huh? Come on, let's get out of here. Oooh, we should grab ramon on the way home!"
Aqua nods and the leave. A while later Aqua was on her way home when her phone rings and she answered "Hello?"
"You, you good right now?" Uzi said on the other line. "All that mess with the track team…Guess I was right about my gut feeling. And Lizzy can get oddly stubborn sometimes. She'll keep her mouth shut whether or not someone's punching her."
"So, she should've punched back?" Aqua asked.
"Not best solution answer to that." Shiki-Ouiji said.
"Whoa, hey, that's not what I'm saying! No violence, period!" Uzi states "I thought you're supposed to be the pacifist here! Look, I'm just saying there's got to be another way to solve this instead of just going dark!"
"And that jerk, Hans' name came up again, I swar, something about that human is so shady…" Uzi said thinking "Okay, that's it. I'm going to do a full investigation…I'll hit you up if I find anything! Later!"
Aqua nods and heads the call and enters LeBlanc.
When Aqua goes in her phone dings and she sees messages in the Dragon Gems group chat.
"I assume you are all curious, so I'm sending you an update just in case." Zane messages. "Lysandre is still bedridden. He hasn't spoken a single word. My apologies for not being able to provide anything more solid…"
"Come on, it's not you fault. Don't worry about it." Uzi messages. "…It is June already though."
"The exhibition will be ending soon…" Alexis messages.
"At least it doesn't seem like Lysandre's had a mental shutdown." Uzi messages. "But there's no point if he don't have a change of heard and call off that legal action bull."
"Was this how it was when you defeated Gaston?" Zane asked in the messages.
"Pretty much." Aqua messages thinking about it.
"Yeah, Gaston was out of school for a while." Alexis messages.
"Either way, there has been no palpable progress." Zane messages "It appears only the target themselves can tell whether or not their heart has changed."
"It's a goddamn pain in the aft, but yeah." Uzi messages "We just got to hear from Lysandre himself what the deal is."
"Yeah, there's nothing we can really do…Let's just try waiting a little longer." Alexis messages.
Aqua nods and puts her phone away and goes upstairs to get dressed and sees all the sooty gear she could clean it at the laundromat but felt like keeping them in the bag for now. She then gets a message from Penny who thought a new idea to help them and decides to check it out and go into it and heads back to Central Street.
As she was heading out the newscaster Kent Brockman said "Mcburgertown stock plummets after employee posted pictures of himself engaging in unsanitary practices. The scandal occurred just before a stockholder meeting, having dire effects on the fast-food chain. As for the man behind the scandal, he claims that he was 'fully nude at work before he realized it.'"
"Why would anyone do that?" Gatomon said confused "Did he think he was being hilarious or something?"
Aqua shrugs and hears two businessmen talking about it. The Young Buisnessman said "Did you see the news about McBurgertown? Stuff like that happening makes me not want to eat there, ever. There's just no excuse for it."
"Besides, that guy says he doesn't remember doing it, right? He doesn't feel bad about it at all." The Dilligent Office Worker said.
"Thank you the curry was delicious" The Young Businessman said as they both pay Vito and leave.
Aqua was confused on what they were saying but shrugs and heads out to Central Street.
As she was going there, she detours into the Bookstore and guys the three new books available which were Vague, Wise Men's Words and Nightlife Hotspots. She then goes to Penny
"So, I heard you did the request I asked you to do. Thanks!" Penny said smiling "Oh yeah! As your strategic image management rep, I thought I should come up with more ways to help you. Do you have time today?"
"Sure let's hang out Penny." Aqua said.
"How does the diner sound to you?" Penny said smiling "Come on."
As they stood by the diner, Penny thinks and said "Oh, I forgot to mention…But we're meeting up with some Phanguys today."
"I'm sorry what?" Aqua asked confused.
"All thieves are supposed to have some special guys, right?" Penny explained.
"Great idea" Aqua said smiling thinking.
"Yeah, you've got to steal a guy's heart if you want to be called a phantom thief. Let's do this!" Penny said smiling. "Basically, I met some cool guys on the Phan-Site, and we thought it'd be fun to do an in-person meet-up. Oh, that reminds me, they think we're just part of the Phandom. I made up this whole story about how we stumbled onto the Phan-Site one day, so let's stick to that. Don't spill the beans, okay?"
"We're part of…. the Phandom?" Aqua said confused.
"That's what users of the Phan-Site call themselves! It's really caught on as the forum's gotten more popular." Penny explained smiling. "Either way, you should be excited about this! Mingling with your loyal supporters is a noble cause indeed! Plus remember how I said I'd help publicize the Phantom Thieves? This is just the beginning!"
Penny then looks around concerned and gets worried and said "Though to be honest, I've never actually met someone from online in person…I wonder if I'll be able to do it right…I did lots of research though. I know all about footing the bill and getting desserts from the guy. Apparently if things go well, you might even have them t-t-take you home…"
"Yeah…" Aqua sweatdrops at that.
"Huh?" Penny said as she checks the time on her phone. "It's way part our meeting time…" She then calls one of the guys "Um…H-Hello? It's Pen…it's the girl you met on the Phan-Site…About our meet-up…You're still at home?! And…what about your friend? Oh, um…yeah. Uh-huh…No, we'll be waiting here…"
Penny's eyes widen as she said "Wait, was that a train announcement? I could swear I just heard someone say 'Beacon' over a loudspeaker…Are you close by? Huh? Oh no! I'm not calling you a liar…Okay…Yeah…Maybe next time…" She sighs and puts the phone away and looks at Aqua "S-So…both of them apparently got sick? They're just gonna stay home. Ahaha…" she sighs again.
"It seemed like they were really into the idea of the forum…" Penny said and laughs holding her head "O-Oh well…My bad! I was so busy with all the new forum posts, I didn't have time to really vet them too much."
"It's not your fault Penny." Aqua said to her.
"Yeah, thanks." Penny said smiling. She then shakes her head "But all this aside, I have some really good info ready for you guys! I won't let you down…I'll prove just how useful I can be to the Phantom Thieves!"
"Yeah." Aqua said nodding seeing that Penny was extra motivated. She then sees the Moon Arcana card rank up to 3 and a new ability known as Penny's Enthusiasm which increases experience in battle.
"It wasn't supposed to turn out like this though…" Penny said sighing "I bet those guys would never have flaked one me if they knew I'm friends with the real live Phantom Thieves." She sighs "Being a guardian of justice isn't so easy, huh…?"
"I guess so" Aqua said rubbing her head.
"Well, let's head home." Penny said.
Aqua returns to the café when her phone rings and she answers it "Hello?"
"Oh, Aqua? Sorry for dragging you our for no reason." Penny said on the other end "People typically use an alias online, so a lot of them don't hold back when they comment. Mmm, I thought it was going to be a great opportunity to hear their opinions on the Phantom Thieves…It's always better to hear that kind of stuff in person, right?"
"Of course" Aqua said nodding.
"Right? I knew you'd feel the same way." Penny said to that "Maaan, we could've met some really hot g-I mean, gotten some really valuable information…"
"Sure…" Aqua said.
"All right, I'll get back to modding." Penny said "Trust me, everything's going to turn out awesome! See ya!"
Aqua nods and puts her phone away and goes to bed to be ready for tomorrow.
The next day Aqua was waiting for the train at the train station when she sees J approaching her.
"I want to ask you something." J said to her. "Why did Mr. LeGume change all of a sudden?"
"If I had to guess, he grew a conscience possibly." Aqua said to her.
"Is that your hypothesis?" J asked her. "It's still too sudden…I believe it's only natural to think that something must have caused it…. Well, that's fine." She nods smiles "Thanks for your valuable opinion. I'll take it into account."
"No problem." Aqua said and both board the train.
Soon it was after school and as Aqua was packing away she get a message from Penny.
"This one's super special!" Penny messages "It's not even anywhere on the forum yet…Anyway, do you remember that bully, Jo whose heart you changed earlier? Well…It turns out there was someone pulling the strings the whole time! It seems like Jo didn't have a choice but to listen to what this guy told him to do." Penny continues "But ordering someone to bully other people is a pretty lousy thing to do, isn't it?"
"That's horrible." Aqua messages shaking her head.
"Right?! It's totally unacceptable." Penny messages "This person has to be somewhere in our school right? You should go take a look around. In the meantime, I'll secretly do a little more research too!"
"If we want to go after this target, we'll need a name." Gatomon told Aqua. "Let's go investigate the school"
Aqua nods and heads out the school. She then looks and sees Jo talking to a boy with short read hair in a Citadel Academy uniform. She goes and eavesdrop.
"You sure about that? I can't imagine you want me to release this video of you stealing…" The boy said smirking.
"Fine! Just stop making me bleed people dry, Cardin!" Jo said arms folded.
"Hey, you did all that on your own." Cardin said chuckling "You really want me to show this to your teachers, huh, Jo? Another word out of you and I'll debut you film to the whole world. The 'Cardin Winchester Tapes' will be a huge hit!"
"Come on, you MADE me do it! Damn it…" Jo said annoyed.
"So, a bigger jerk was pulling the strings all along. We got to do something about this!" Gatomon whispered.
Aqua nods and heads to the hideout
When everyone gathered they reviewed this request.
"The intel is on a cowardly kid who carries out atrocities using bullies under his control." Gatomon explained "He's the one behind that girl Jo whose heart we changed before as well. Anyway, it seems like he's been blackmailing people with videos they don't want made public."
"Sure thing. Let's break that jerk." Uzi said with a nod, anything to get rid of the corrupt and bad people's hearts in Citadel Academy.
"It seems tough, but I think we can accomplish this if you say we can!" Alexis said smiling.
"No objections, right?" Gatomon said and everyone stayed quiet "Mm…We're good to go if you're okay with it. That's a unanimous decision!"
Everyone nod and disbands, they will change Cardin's heart next time they dive into Mementos. Aqua then heads to Mordin's Clinic and approaches him
"Oh hello, how are your alligies? I have a good medicine for them. Just one does should take care of them, in theory." Mordin said.
"I'm good, here for another Clinical Trial." Aqua said smiling
"I've been really busy lately with all my new patients, but…What the heck?" Mordin shrugs "Oh, everythings set up already."
"Alright then" Aqua said.
Mordin stands but recalls something "Oh, that old lady from earlier forgot something…I wonder if she's still outside…"
The two go outside and meet an Old Lady known as Granny who owned the tiem and gave it too her.
"…Thank you dear. This is my favourite handkerchief." Granny said smiling taking it.
"No thanks needed…It was right in front of me, so…" Mordin said shaking his head.
"Oh my! You're a shy one, aren't you?" Granny said to Mordin.
"Excuse me but I-I'm not shy." Mordin said taken aback.
"My neighbour speaks highly of you." Granny said smiling "She says your medicines are better then those at the big hospitals. It's very reassuring to have such a distinguished doctor right here in town. I'll see you again soon." She then leaves.
Mordin shakes his head sighing "What the heck was that?"
"Well, someone's popular." Aqua said to him smiling.
"Indeed, it looks like it" Matador said nodding.
"…Thank to you." Mordin said looking at her a bit annoyed.
"What do you mean?" Aqua asked confused.
"There's a lot of talk going around town about me, started by that boy and her father…" Mordin explain sighing. "Apparently, they've been telling everyone that I can make all these amazing medicines and remedies. So now the number of patients I'm seeing has increased dramatically."
"I don't know what some of these people are thinking though. I've had a lot of crazy requests." Mordin said thinking "like yesterday, a patient requested a 'sweet-smelling' compress. Oh and just the other day I had a request for a 'cold-buster.'" He chuckles "A drug like that deserves the Galactic Prize. Other requests have included hair and skin tonics…I even had to do a consultation about a Meowth…"
Mordin shakes his head and said "I know I am smarter then other Salarians but I'm not that big of a genius doctor."
"But you ARE a genius." Aqua said to her.
"True I can see it" Matador said with a nod
"…No." Mordin said to her serious "This is all interfering with my development. I'm only interested in completing my new drug. That's my role as the Plague. I'm not suited for all this other stuff."
"But it suits you." Aqua said.
"I agree" Matador said nodding.
"What?" Mordin said surprised "Really now? Hm" He thinks "Well, you as a human are entitled to your opinion. But a 'Salarian town doctor,' huh? That sort of lifestyle profession might've been possible for me at one time a retirement from bigger projects, but now…" He thinks
"Oh right, about thos clinical trials…" Mordin said nodding "With so many new patients it's taking long to analyse the datem so I'll need to catch up. This is a bit on the stronger side, but I'm sure you'll be okay."
Aqua nods and feels her bond with Mordin growing even deeper. She sees the Death Arcana go to rank 6.
"It looks like that human boy is going to make a full recovery." Mordin said with a smile "This treatment seems to be a good match for her. So at least I can breath a little easier, for now…Hopefully he'll be able to attend school soon." Aqua smiles at Mordin and he notices and said "…What are you so happy about? Are you excited for your next clinical trial? Well then, let's have some fun."
Aqua sweatdrops but doing the trial feels her guts improve. As Aqua makes her way go she got a call from Mordin.
"How's my little human guinea pig doing after our catch-up drug?" Mordin asked "I know it was probably a lot to handle. Considering I doubled the dosage and halved the activation time…But we're so close. We're right at the end of all this I can feel it. I'll need you to stick around just a little bit longer. I hope you can handle it."
"You can count on me." Aqua said smiling.
"We're in it to the end" Matador said smiling.
"Well, aren't you a little go-getter." Mordin said to that "If you're that excited about ti, maybe I'll just give you a dose of everything and see how you hold up."
"Heheh…please don't" Aqua said nervous.
"Well, I've got some catching up to do." Mordin said "I have to process today's data as quickly as possible. Make sure to call if you ever feel sick, okay? Take care."
Aqua nods and heads into LeBlanc.
After getting dressed she heads downstairs and sees the Quiz show on and watches.
"When talking about huvenile crime, you often hear about 'probation' fir reforming repentant offenders." Chuck Quizmo said reading the question "Now, when it comes to probation…A) Overseas travel is prohibited B) Probation Officers are unpaid. Which one of these statements is true? You be the judge!"
"I know this, it's B, Probation officers are unpaid." Aqua said.
"The correct answer is…B! Probation officers don't receive a salary!" The boy contestant said
"Probation officers are civil volunteers. They are only paid the necessary amount when providing a report." The lawyer on the show said. "Since probation is intended to encourage rehabilitation, overseas travel is not prohibited."
"You got it right! It's pretty amazing that the chief is doing this for no pay, though…" Gatomon said.
"Apparently he did it as a favor but yeah" Aqua said nodding as she feels her knowledge increase.
Aqua then heads into town to Joyful Big Bang Burger.
"Oh, hey Aqua, welcome to Joyful Big Bang Burger, open 24 hours a day because there's no day or night in space!" Larry said smiling "What can I get for you?"
"I am here to take the challenge" Aqua said to him showing her Second Mate Badge and Gatomon was sure she can handle it.
"As you are a Second Mate, the difficulty of the mission will be increased" Larry said, "The challenge will be 500 credits."
"Sure, I'm ready" Aqua said nodding and paying
"Certainly." Larry said making the transaction "Now then, go take a seat! And good luck!"
Aqua takes her sear in the booth and Larry approaches "Thank you for coming back for the Big Bang Challenge. As you have move up to the rank of Second Mate…this is your next foe!"
Another employee comes over a a tray and places it on the tray and drink and leaves it on the table, the burger was double the size as the Comet Burger, the size surprised everyone nearby.
"Holy moly! It's humongous…" Gatomon said.
"This is the Gravity Burger…A burger so large that it almost has its own gravitation field." Larry said as he was setting up the timer "Once again, this will be no easy feat to overcome. But should you conquer this challenge, you will be rewarded with an extravagant prize."
"So, this one come with a prize too…Do your best, Aqua!" Gatomon said.
"Well then, it's time to get the thirty-minute Big Bang Challenge started! Ready…Go!" Larry said and starts the time and goes off to take more orders.
As the time starts Aqua begins to eat the burger as the others watch with intense. Aqua thinks 'It looks like there's whole head of lettuce in here…The burger's already cold…'
"I don't think you have the luxury of enjoying the taste. Don't chew, just swallow!" Gatomon instructs.
A while later the whole burger was gone. Aqua groaning and feeling wobbly thinks 'I somehow ate the whole thing…!'
"Y-You…. You've done it again!" Gatomon said impressed and the other customers who were watching were impressed as well.
"Congratulations on completing this challenge!" Larry said smiling approaching "Since you managed to crush the Gravity Burger…I present to you the First Mate Badge!" He hands it to her "And to the burger baron who defeated this challenge, we present to you…Our world-famous Big Bang Burger, on the house! We hope you enjoy the taste of victory." He hands her 5 more Big Bang Burgers
"Thank you" Aqua said putting the burgers in the bag and attaches the badge to the bag.
"Enjoy your new rank as First Mate. However, one mission still remains…" Larry told her. "I look forward to your next attempt at our challenge!" He walks ouff
"You defeated the Gravity Burger this time…You're incredible" Gatomon said smiling "You were so admirable, taking on such a daunting task with that intense level of courage!" Aqua nods as she feels her Guts improve because of this. Gatomon added "Your pace, your strategy of using well-timed drinks, and just the spectacular way you devoured it…Everything was perfect!"
Aqua smiles as she feels her Knowledge, Charm and Proficiency improves. They then head home to go to bed and get ready for school tomorrow.
Well that was productive, next chapter I feel will be the final one for this arc so get ready and this will take a small break for a bit.
Please Read, Review and Suggest. Thank you.
