Persona 4 RP Story/Dungeon

Shinta sighed, "Yeah, that place was fucked up."

"Just let us know next time," Karin said calmly, "I mean if we let one fight break us up like this then it's just gonna get in the way next time someone needs us."

Shinta chuckled, Us? Tch. Actin' like you're already part of the team.

"Yeah, I mean we're a team right?" Yomiko said.

"Heh. I suppose." Masuyo said.

"By the way." Yomiko said as she threw a bag at Masuyo. "I figured you were gonna need a change of clothes."

"................thanks........."

"Don't even bother asking. I saw them. I saw every single one." Yomiko said glaring at Masuyo.

"You know what. Whatever. Im just gonna have to check my stash when I get home to make sure they're all-"

"OH WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT AUNTIE IS CALLING-"

"NO SHE ISNT! DONT LIE WOMAN!"

"Wait you really do go through people's... never mind," Karin said, "I've been hit enough for one day."

"Mmmmmgggghppppphhhhhhhhhhh..........." Yomiko grumbled completely red.

"ANYWAYS!" Masuyo said. "Im off to shower." he said going upstairs to finally get out of his dirt covered clothes.

Kentaro turns over and grumbles in his sleep, having just got his persona 20 minutes ago.

"Bonds? I don't know about that."

"What the hell was that? That didn't seem like Shinta back there." Masuyo said to himself as he washed his hair. "But it seems wrong to doubt him.......I mean he's my best friend........yeah everything is fine." I hope



"So........what now?" Yomiko asked.

Stefan grumbled, kicking a stone. He spotted the shrine. "...I really ought to pay a visit."

"Now," Shinta stretched, "we rest up and figure out what to do with Sakuraba and the bum."

"What DO we do about them?" Yomiko asked. "Its kinda annoying that he up and runs off anytime he gets annoyed. And problematic too."

Shinta shrugged, "To be honest I don't know. I find dealing with him to be pretty difficult. I guess we just give him some spa-" Shinta was cut off by the sound of a cellphone ringing. Karin reached into her pocket and pulled out her phone, "Hello? Yes I'm at a friend's house. What? Right now? Um, well...No, no I'll be right there. Okay, bye." Karin sighed and hung up, "Um...yeah. I gotta go now. Grandma's got some chores for me to do."

"Alright then," Shinta stood up and walked her out, "See ya. And again, sorry about...yeah."

"No worries. See ya. Later, Yomi." Karin said waving as she went home.

"Bye!" Yomiko said waving. "What's taking Masuyo? Geez." she said frowning.


"Huh, I just heard the door. I wonder who left?" Masuyo said sticking his head out of the bathroom door. "Eh. Whatever." he said going back inside to finish getting dressed

Shinta stared out the door for a few seconds before shutting the door and speaking solemnly, "Hey Asakura, can I ask you something?"

"Huh? What? It better not be about the stuff from Masuyo's room." she said sternly

"No, not that," he chuckled weakly, "how can I put this? Come to think of it we've never really sat down and talked just the two of us, have we? Anyway, I have a question, are you familiar with Machiavelli?"

"......Who?"

"An Italian writer," Shinta explained, "well he was more than that but his main claim to fame was a work called The Prince. I'm sure you've at least heard of it. You know, 'the ends justify the means' and all that. But right now something he once said's got me thinkin'. He said 'Never was anything great achieved without danger.' Seems obvious but until all this started I never really understood it. I thought if I just kept goin' on as I was things'd just take care of themselves, but if I ain't willin' to take a lil' risk then there ain't no point to it, right? Waddya think about it?"

"Uh......I.........dont know......" Yomiko said slowly inching away from Shinta. "What are you getting at?"

Shinta smiled at the retreating Yomiko and continued,"Guess that was to much for ya? Let me make it simple, the major theme of The Prince is that the ends justify the means. Meaning if your goal is noble enough it doesn't matter what atrocities you use to achieve it. What Ah'm sayin' izzat I gotta big goal, but Ah never did nuthin' 'bout it an' now the only way ta do it is ta do somethin' downright drastic. That's why," Shinta instantly moved in front of Yomiko and punched her in the stomach, knocking her unconscious, "I hope ya don't get to mad. This's all fer a good cause."

Yomiko fell over unconscious.

"Twas a good refreshing shower!" Masuyo said beginning to walk down the steps. "Though I gotta ask why she picked my outfit from Kyoto. Its like shes trying to remind me of all of my atrocities or something."

"Now then, princess," Shinta said looking at Yomiko's unconscious body, "let me show you to your castle."

"Hey whys it so friggin quiet down there!? You guys must be bored!" Masuyo said getting to the bottom of the steps.

Shinta stepped out of the TV and stretched, "Multiple trips in one day, not fun."

"What? What were you just doing?" Masuyo asked. "Where's Karin? And Yomiko for that matter?"

"Huh? Karin got called back by her grandma and Asakura left with her," Shinta explained, "y'know, since it's getting so late 'n all." Why now? Just a little more time.

".....And Yomi?" Masuyo questioned. "I doubt she'd just up and leave after her freaking out about me disappearing."
