Persona 4 RP Story/Dungeon

"Well, good news is she might be able to help," Shinta said, "bad news is she'll need to wake up first."

"Wait, what do you mean?" asked Karin.

"I mean she's exhausted from accepting her Shadow and gaining her Persona."

"Wai-wha-how-huh-WHAT!?" Yomiko shouted flustured.

"Jesus!" Masuyo said. "They're popping up everywhere!" he said. "Its like we have a mini army"

"It's a story not suited for here Asakura," Shinta explained, "It's more like a side story you'd find in an OVA or a Gaiden chapter. We can get to it when everything else is said and done."

"Why would Nene of all people deserve an OVA?" Masuyo asked irritated.

Shinta shrugged, "Just one man's opinion."

"So what now?" Karin asked, "Do we take them back or head straight to Tsubasa?"

"Per..Persona..? I think I remember reading about those once...Ngh!" Maeko mumbled to herself. She grabbed her head turned to the group. "W-well...I, guess you all saw everything..But, thank you..As a token of my gratitude, I will join your 'team'. But could someone explan what the hell is going on? Rgh.." She fell to her knees, still holding her head.

"We gotta get Maeko out of here. She's in no condition to be in the tv world. But we can't leave Tsubasa in here either." Stefan said, lifting Maeko up. "Masuyo, you're still sick, and Tsubasa went crazy on you in the first place. Would you mind going back with her? Take Kentaro too. He can heal, and he's been a bit....loopy."

"That's one way to put it," Shinta quipped, "Now that I think about it, why don't you take Yuuki back as well? Goin' in and out like this can't be good for y-" Shinta's head reeled from the force of Karin's swing and he grunted, "Bad idea?"

"You're really something, you know that?" Karin pointed her bat at him, "Show up outta nowhere, fight the Shadow with us, and apparently you just happened to save Nene too? It's almost like you've completely forgotten what happened yesterday. Maybe I should remind you. Well?"

"Cut it out. Both of you." Stefan said wearily. "...You have a point Shinta. But if you think I'm leaving you in here with Karin and Yomi alone...Not after everything that's happenend." Karin's still unstable with him. And we still don't know what he did to Yomi. I can't leave them alone with him.

"But he...fine." Karin growled lowering her bat.

"A fair point. Personally if I did try anything I'm sure they'd find me considerably less of a threat than before, but I can understand your apprehension."

"I can't exactly trust your word either." Stefan sighed. "But we're gonna need your help too."

"And you will have it." replied Shinta solemnly.

Karin scratched her head and muttered, "You gotta be kidding me."

"Karin...I understand your concerns. I won't let him harm any of us." Stefan said, passing Maeko off to Masuyo.

Kentaro is dreaming of talking with his Persona again.

"NO NO NO! This is not what I wanted! You're violating our agreement!" says Kentaro angrily.

"Phoo! I gave you exactly what you wanted. The problem is you don't seem to understand how difficult this is. Besides you seem to have anger down pat now so Im obviously making prrogress." Lehnan Sidhe pouts.

*Sigh* Kentaro calms himself somewhat "Listen. I wanted to experience emotions over logic and you turned me into a blithering idiot. When I asked you to tone it down, you brought out my inner sociopath. All I want is a little balance and my life energy is yours for the taking, but if you can not do that..."

"Like I said it's not that simple sweetie. This experiment of yours... you're tampering with your true self. That's not so easy and it changes me as much as it does you, you know."

"The emotions are there... I know it. I've felt it, but I still lack data. When are they appropiate and to what extent? How does one sort the good feelings from the bad? There must be an ordered system to this, but our current approach is detrimental not only to myself but to those around me."

Its obvious he's missing the point but oh well...
"Give me one more chance muffin. Pleeease."

"Fine. But within certain perameters. I want you to invoke the emotions slowly. Start by building one gradually, but don't amplify it to the extent where I can't feel anything else. I don't care which emotion it is this time but nothing that could prove dangerous to anyone."

"giggle. You got it."

"Well then," Shinta asked, "What should our next course of action be?"

"Well, what's with Nene, you ought to fill us in Shinta." Stefan said.

"C-can we just get out of here first, please..? As beautiful as the scenery is, I...don't feel comfortable..." Maeko mumbled as she rubbed her head.

"Masuyo will take you out of here. ...We still have a friend in here. And you're in no condition or state of mind to help. ...Sorry. We promise to explain later."

"It's just as I said, she went looking for Takano and fell into the TV," Shinta explained, "Well to be precise, she tried to kick the TV in frustration and her leg went through. She then put herself in in a fit of curiosity. Due to my previous wounds I could not immediately give chase but once I was ready I went after her. By the time I got to her she was confronted by her Shadow and the usual affair occurred. Now she's asleep at the entrance, guarded by my Persona."

"Sounds convenient." muttered Karin.

"Regardless, we need to make our way to the exit to drop Maeko, Masuyo, and Kentaro off." Stefan began walking, slipping a bit on a wet rock. "Let's...keep moving."

Meanwhile, as things progressed in the TV world, Dani had trouble sleeping. Still worried about the direction she would take in life, and wondering if the man that visited her in Junes was real or not. The things he said were strange, and he disappeared out of thin air.
"But it seemed so...real..." Trying to force herself back to sleep, Dani moaned, hoping her sleep schedule would be back to normal by the time school started again.

"As you wish," Shinta said following Stefan, "You really have grown. It's quite impressive."

"...I attained what some priests would call, 'a moment of clarity'. ...You and me are kinda the same person walking down different paths." Stefan commented, moving forward at a slower pace than before the battle.

"Is that so?" Shinta muttered, "I guess I should thank you for the compliment."

Karin continued to glare apprehensively as she followed the two.

"Rrgh...Are we near the exit yet..?" Maeko mumbled as she held her head and slowly followed the rest.
