Persona 4 RP Story/Dungeon

Yomiko shot out of the water and tackled karin shouting "SHUT UP!!!"

"Holy crap." Masuyo said turning to see the football player level tackle

Karin was caught off guard by Yomiko's sudden appearance, "What the hell?" She was brought beneath the water and neither one emerged.

Shinta shrugged, "Are those two gonna have a fight everyday this trip?"

"It seems like thats the theme of this trip." Masuyo said with a laugh. "I think they're gonna kill each other this time."

"You all........are really something." Nene said with a grin.

"They have so much fun.......despite how dangerous and loud it is." Tsubasa said looking for a new person to hide behind

"Yeah," Shinta said making sure not to get caught in the crossfire, "this is pretty much us in a nutshell. Well two of us are missing and another left mid-trip, but you get the picture."

"Just add a guy trying to act like a ladies man, and a........guy who is kinda just there and you've got the whole group."Masuyo said.

"Dont forget the FAILING part!" Yomiko said resurfacing with Karin

"Welcome back," Shinta said unfazed by the two's sudden arrival and disheveled appearance, "I take it you two are done for now?"

Karin answered, "Yeah, we're done. Still, Yomi, you've got some good moves. Where'd you learn 'em?"

"Auntie." she plainly answered.

"I knew there was something with her......" Masuyo said lost in thought at the thought of Asakura doing wrestling moves.

"You don't say," Karin laughed while fixing her shorts, "Remind me to ask for some lessons."

"Hahaha. If I remember." Yomiko said.

"So what now?" Nene asked the group.

"Shinta and Karin have a lovely date to go on." Masuyo said snickering.

Shinta looked at Karin and shrugged, "I guess we do."

"There's really no way outta this, huh?" Karin sighed.

"None."

"Fine, just lemme change. Unless you wanna stay here or something?"

"No. I think it's best if we leave."

"Okay then. You comin' to the room too, Yomi?"

"Nahhhh you two have a good time. We'll hang around here a bit longer." Yomiko said chuckling

Karin glared before stepping out of the pool and towelling off, "Fine. I'll be going on ahead then." With that she made her way to the entrance.

"Well," Shinta got out of the pool and dried himself off, "Wish me luck...I guess?" He shrugged and went to the hotel entrance.

"You guys know this is probably just going to make them TRY to be distant?" Tsubasa said upset.

".............Eh?" Nene and Yomiko said in unison.

"They dont like being nagged about their emotions all the time. Stop assuming that they're an item! If anything it will make them drift apart!" she said clutching her hands.

"Uh...........wow." Masuyo said surprised at Tsubasa's "outburst." "Wait. its just me at the pool with a bunch of beauties!" he said. "What're we gonna do!?"

"We could be your personal harem." Nene said with a wink.

"Over his, and your dead body." Yomiko said with a black aura surrounding her. "AND HIS." she said pointing to the already seemingly dead Kentaro

Shinta stepped off the elevator in his new clothes and saw Karin waiting in the lobby, "Hey. I make you wait long?"

Karin fixed her new clothes and answered, "It's cool. I just got here. So where are we goin'?"

Shinta paused for a moment, "Well I was thinking we'd just relax in the park or something. Though I'm sure you could handle more running around, it'd probably be best if we got some rest before the concert."

"Sounds like a cheap date," Karin said dryly, "but I guess it also sounds nice. Let's go."

"Let's," Shinta held out his hand but Karin didn't take it and made her way to the exit, "Heh, no such luck, huh?" Shinta chuckled before following after Karin.

It didn't take long for the two to reach the park and when they did they spent their time in a leisurely manner. They walked along the path, watched the children play and the elderly play shougi. After a while they found a shady spot under a tree to rest and sat down.

"Yup," Shinta stretched his arms as far as he could over his head, "Nothin' like loungin' around after a day at the pool."

"We weren't there for that long." Karin said as she hugged her knees to her chest.

"What's wrong? You've been acting strange lately," Shinta said concerned, "Were you self-conscious about your swimsuit? Or is this about the date?"

"Neither." Karin said angrily, "Look I don't wanna talk about it, okay?"

Shinta gave a reassuring smile, "C'mon, we've known each other how long? And didn't Aniki always say we should help each other out?"

"...That's the problem," Karin said shakily, "It's because of Tamaki-aniki that I feel like this."

Shinta stared confused at the statement, "...You lost me."

"Everyone keeps tryin' to pair us together, no matter what we say or do they keep on," Karin explained, "the problem is...they're not completely wrong. I'm not sayin' I like you or love you but...sometimes I think...if we could just be like this, hanging out together forever, I wouldn't hate it. But then that means...I might forget about him." Karin began shaking but felt Shinta's arms around her from behind, "You really did love him, didn't you?" Karin said nothing, but Shinta could tell what her answer would be.

"Hold on to those feelings. Aniki was important to all of us, so you shouldn't forget him, but...you can't let your heart be locked up with him." Shinta winced at the poor choice of words, "What I mean is, holding on to memories and feelings isn't the same as being bound to them. Think of it this way, if you just look to the past and deny everything else, like you did in the TV, you wouldn't've met Masu 'n the others. You wouldn't even be here now."

"Yeah, guess you're right," Karin smiled, "I hate when you're right, you know that?"

"You've told me before."

"Still...thanks."

"Anytime, Strawberry Head."

"HRRAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!" Stefan Screamed, a now ravenous look in his face as he tried to find the location of the concert. He spotted a familiar person out of the corner of his eye and tackled him to the ground. "YOU! CONCERT! RISE! WHERE?!"

"WAHH!!" Yosuke screamed as he was tackled by Stefan. "W-woah woah woah! Calm down dude!! W-who...Wait, aren't you that hobo guy that was hanging out with Masuyo-kun?"

"WHERE CONCERT?!"

"Uh, dude, it's a block down that way....Why're you in a suit? And what's with the saxaphone? W-what the hell are you gonna do to Rise?!"

"I HAVE BEEN SENT HERE ON A QUEST FOR A FOX WHO LIVES AT THE SHRINE! YOU ASK TO MANY QUESTIONS!!"

"Er....Dude...C-calm down, you're acting pretty nuts..."

"Hmm." Stefan ignored Yosuke's words and thought out loud. "If I leave him here, he might find someone to try and stop me....I can't have that." He glared at Yosuke.

"Uhhh....."

***

"DUDE! LET ME DOWN!!" Yosuke screamed, tied to a tree branch.

"I'm afraid I can't do that Yosuke. I can't have anyone knowing what I have planned. It'll ruin everything."

"DUDE! DUDE! YOU HAVE ME TIED TO A TREE! JUST LET ME THE HELL DOWN!!"

"Sorry Yosuke. I have the utmost respect for you for....actually I barely know you. But all being said, sorry about this. I have to complete this quest." Stefan pulled out a piece of duct tape. "Thank you for being so co-operative. That fat kid wasn't as compliant."

"F-fat kid? What did you do to the--MMPGH?!" Stefan wrapped the duct tape around Yosuke's mouth.

"Don't worry, I'll be back for you after the concert...If I don't forget. I have to complete my mission.......It's all that matters now." With that, Stefan left Yosuke with his muffled screams, and headed for the concert. "....Initiating phase 3. Contact with Rise Kujikawa."

"So," Shinta said letting go of Karin and sitting next to her, "you feelin' any better?"

"Yeah," Karin said before stretching out under the tree, "thanks for cheering me up."

"Not a problem, I'd be a lousy date if I didn't. Which reminds me, I guess I should get you a souvenir or something, huh?"

"...I'd like that."

"Let's pick one up on the way back. I'm guessing you wanna get some stuff for the concert."

"Works for me. Let's go." The two made their way back to the hotel. Shinta looked into a shop's window and stopped, "Wait right here." Shinta stepped inside the shop and emerged moments later with a bag in tow. "Wait until you get back to the room to open this," he instructed giving Karin the bag. Karin nodded and the two continued on their way.

"I wonder how its going." Tsubasa asked the others concerned.

"I wonder how Yomi is doing." Masuyo asked. "She takes FOREVER to change her fucking clothes!" he shouted. The group seemingly had returned to the hotel room.

"I gotta say, this is a nice room!" Nene said.

"Yeah, where' you two staying?" Masuyo asked the girls.

"Well, we dont have much money. We had to bunk with some creep we spoke to on a forum." Nene said shruging.

"Yeah thats safe." Masuyo sarcastically said.

"Well we have Tsu-chan's demonic power!" Nene said in her defense.

"But what if they DRUG you or something?" Masuyo started.

"Huh?" Tsubasa asked.

"Nothing, just one too many doujins is all." Nene said patting Tsubasa on the head.

"Well," Shinta stared up in disbelief, "That's something you don't see everyday."

"Isn't that Yosuke-senpai?" Karin asked.

"Yup," Shinta shrugged, "I guess we better get him down."

"You seem pretty calm about this."

"Well what can ya do. Anyway we better get him down, the way he's squirming it's only a matter of time before he," both Shinta and Karin winced as Yosuke hit the ground, "...falls. Let's at least untie him."

"Yeah thats no good." Yomiko said as she came out of her room dressed. "Well, Im staying with creeps too but.......well its a different case and such." she said with a slight laugh. "Anyways, its four guys and two girls, why dont you two even the number out?" she said.

"Do you mean we can stay HERE!?" Tsubasa shouted shocked as she was still marveling in the quality of the room.

"Mmhm." Yomiko said with a smile.

"You hear that Ne-chan!? We get to stay here!" Tsubasa said hugging Nene.

"Yes yes I heard her. Thank you Miko-chan." Nene said with a genuine smile.

"Awwwwwwwww" Masuyo said. "This is so heartwarming."

"Woah woah woah!" interjects Kentaro now almost recovered and holding an ice pack to his head. "Why don't you stay with me? I have a room in the hotel too. Top floor suites courtesy of the record label. Much more private."

Tsubasa instantly hid behind Nene hearing Kentaro speak.

"But Hero-kun and his lovely entourage are here. Even if the crazy rapist guy is here too......." Nene said.

"Dont mind him, hes usually too busy on his emotional roller coaster to have time to try anything." Masuyo said

"Thats true." Yomiko said with a laugh

"Speaking of which," Shinta said walking into the room with Karin and Yosuke, "it looks like his roller coaster made another drop."

Karin pointed to Yosuke angrily, "We found Senpai here gagged and tied to a tree branch outside. Apparently Stefan did it, saying stuff about the concert and a quest and the fox...and he had a saxaphone."

"I see... alone again in a giant room. Just like always... Woe is me! I thought I felt an emotional connection but twas not meant to be! I suppose I'll just drown myself in the hot tub."

"*sigh* I want to just ignore him untill after the concert. I just want to enjoy the best night of my life." Masuyo said shaking his head. "I swear....."

"Something tells me hes up to something. Like he's going to try to sabotage the concert. Why else would he have a saxaphone?" Yomiko said.

"He does know that four of us in this room would kill him without a second thought right?" Nene said.

"Hell, all of the AUDIENCE would........on second thought it'd be funny to see him get bum rushed by thousands of angry people." Masuyo said with a grin.

"Well it shouldn't matter." Yosuke said. "Ive already contacted her telling her theres a crazed fan on the loose who may try something, so shes doubling the amount of security the place has."

"I have a request." Yomiko said. "Can we meet Rise-san? Like, now? We're the only ones who can give her a 100% exact description of him. I dont even mean just his looks. His mannerisms, the things he'll say. Shes gonna need to know this."

".......I suppose. Let me see if its alright with her." Yosuke said pulling out his phone.

"AND STOP WHINING KENTARO." Masuyo shouted across the room at Kentaro who was yelling about killing himself in the hot tub

"Sniff easy for you to say mister harem lead..." then more seriously "Anyway sounds like Steve really is up to somethin' and so yeah it's close enough to concert time to go see Rise-chan now. I doubt he'll get past security but at least I wanna make it clear with her that I'm not associated with his madness."
