Persona 4 RP Phase 2

"Shes usually always hanging around Tsubasa. Lately i've seen her around Maeko pretty often though." Yomiko said trying to figure out something. "But she mentioned seeing a "Nao" when she left. You know anything about that?"

Karin shook her head. "I don't."

"Nothing? I remembered her yelling for you and Shinta to wait up earlier when you three left. She didn't say where she was going?" Yomiko asked

"..." Maeko turned to Dahni. "Here," She handed Dahni a spare harpoon from her ice bucket. "..Just in case. Watch Tsubasa." Maeko said before darting out of the building, she stopped to turn to Dahni, "I agree with you, You pretty much summed up my thoughts on the situation. Anyway, Watch Tsubasa. " she said before darting out, following Karin and Yomiko. She shortly caught up to them.

"You sure? Hm...wait, I remember now!" exclaimed Karin, "Nao is...Banchou's daughter. Then Shinta made that...yeah I remember now." She shook her head. "So if she went to see her we should check out his place, I guess. So...where does he live?"

"You have the passcode?" Kentaro asks.

"She gave it to me." Masuyo said pointing to his paper with the coordinates. "Lets go."


"He lives a little on near the outskirts of inaba. Near the amagi inn." she said. "But theres no buses so it'll be a bit of a walk." Yomiko said.

Maeko walked behind Yomiko and Karin, loading her harpoon. She kept quiet.

"You okay, Maeko?" asked Karin.

"..." Dahni sat next to Tsubasa, still searching through books for the number. She placed the book down in defeat and placed her hand on Tsubasa's head. "...I dunno if you can hear me, or what kind of hell you might be in right now. But everybody's out there fighting for you. .....I'll do what I can from here. Hang in there as long as you can." She smiled. she picked up the next book and began searching for more numbers.

"...One door closes and another opens. The rest of them won't trust me, but how about you Dahni? Will you let death walk in your home?" He smiled and got up from his chair, closing the door behind him.

"Huh?" Yomiko said turning to see Maeko. "Oh hey. Going to uncle Banchou's place now. Honestly im surprised you didn't stay with Dahni. Anyways we don't really have time sooooo-"

"Thats right little Miss Yomi. You don't have time." Banchou's voice said from behind her and Karin.

"Uncle!? What the heck are you doing here!?"

"Well I found this." he said holding an unconscious Nene. "She was lying unconscious near the riverbank. When I found her she would just mutter "Toshiyuki", whatever the hell that means." he said.

"So he was behind this! God damn it I knew he'd take advantage of everything happening!" Yomiko shouted as she stomped on the ground.

"Everything happening?" Banchou asked feigning ignorance. I guess the twins attacked. Hopefully Misaki fulfilled her end of the plan. All I need now is for those two punks to rub out Ryuusaki, get all them kids home and convince Chiaki and Tamaki to lend a hand, and we should be a big enough force to stop Mikako. Of course we gotta handle Toshiyuki first. According to her intel our best bet is at Chiaki's place. Hrmmm.....how to do this. Maybe if I fluster the kids up enough towards Toshiyuki they'll take him out on their own accord, that'd sure as hell make my life easier. Dancing between three groups and keeping Nao safe? This sure is one hell of a shitty bet im makin here........

"Ah well you see some crazy people attacked the apartment and Karin's house." Yomiko said.

"Uh-huh......maybe I should go make sure everything is ok there. Im sure you'll feel safer knowing good ol uncle banchy is there! Gwahahahah!"

"......I haven't called you that in nine years Uncle." Yomiko said with a disgusted look.

"I know I know yer a grown woman now! You BETTER not be a "woman" if you know what im gettin at. Or the punk is hist-"

"Im not im not im still your cute little innocent pure as gold little Miss Yomi I swear!" Yomiko said blushing. "So we should get Nene back right girls?"

"...Sigh. Yeah. Let's do that. And I'm fine Karin." Maeko said, dangling her harpoon at her side.

"...." Toshiyuki calmly made his way to the apartment. I do feel exposed out here. He pulled out Stefan's phone. "Hmm..."

"Sweet. Thanks for taking care of her, Sir." said Karin with a bow before turning to Yomiko and Maeko, "We should tell Dahni. She's probably worried sick."

"Yeah..." Maeko replied. That didn't take very long at all. I didn't even have to come along... "I..don't have her number."

"Neither do I." Yomiko said with a sigh. "Lets just get back."

"Oh...I thought since she called you you two traded. Hehe...sorry." said Karin sheepishly.

Yomiko slapped her forehead. "Sorry. With everything going on and all." she said as she called Dahni's phone

"Hello?" Dahni answered.

"Uh, we found her." she said as the group jogged to the apartment. "She was attacked by Toshiyuki apparently according to uncle Banchou. He found her at the riverbank muttering his name while she was out. Be wary he may be up to something. Wake up anuntie if you think you have to ok? We'll be there in 3 minutes"

"Okay...I'm happy to hear that you found her." She breathed out. "No change in Tsubasa, and I haven't found Tanamura's number yet." She paused. "..And on a more personal note, I'm sorry about before. ...I care about all our friends a lot too.."

"Eh. We're all just tired and going crazy. At least I know I am!" Yomiko said on the other end of the phone. "Fucking fuck talking while running is a bitch. Ok coming up the hill now. Meet us in the lobby!" she said followed by a "Oh god who put that rock there!" and a falling sound before the call ended.

"Did you really have to converse while running?" Banchou said picking Yomiko up from the ground.

"Shut up." she said dusting herself off.

"..? Hope she's okay..." Dahni put the book down and turned back to Tsubasa. "...I won't be gone long. Hang in there." She squeezed Tsubasa's hand and then left the room."

"...!" Toshiyuki stopped short, seeing the group from a distance, he hid in plain sight, pulling out Stefan's phone and pretending to talk to someone, slowly walking in the opposite direction. Banchou? Has their group been compromised? No, they're ready to crucify me and I don't even work with them anymore. So he must have them fooled somehow. "How ironic." He said to the lack of person on the other end of the phone. They'll believe him, yet I'm the one trying to actually help. "Close call for sure man." He spoke. Time to get out of here. Seems like I may have need for a certain information broker. "Alright, tomorrow it is buddy. Catch ya later." He hung up the phone and began walking faster.

"Dahni!" Yomiko shouted as they got inside. "Couldn't get Yuichi's number huh?" she asked "Ah well. How's the little one holding up upstairs?"

======================================================
"The hell is with all these goddamn flowers!?" Masuyo said sneezing. "My goddamn allergies. I swear I hate nature sometimes. Most of the time."

"Do not mock my beautiful works of art you swine." a man said with bandages wrapped around majority of his face. He angrily pointed at Kentaro. "YOU. You're Responsible for this. Are you ready to die with you little brat who I taught a lesson to back there?"

"Ah so you're the guy!" Masuyo said walking up to Ryuusaki with a smile. "Masuyo Mito, a pleasure." he said bowing.

"What is this? A male fan? Well my beauty does make men surpass the boundary of the sexes sometimes." he said complementing himself.

"Most definitely! Its an honor!" he said shaking his hand. "Just so you know sir........" he said with an evil smile as he grabbed Ryuusaki by the throat. "Im that "Little Brat"'s older brother. But as far as you know im the grim motherfucking reaper and im about to rip your soul out of your fucking anus." he said as he coated Ryuusaki's entire neck in ice. "Go Kentaro!"

"No change. I've been talking to her though. Thought it might help to hear familiar and friendly voices." She looked to Banchou. "My mom's a nurse at the hospital, so I kinda know how to deal with comatose patients. At least at a basic level." Though it's likely a lot different from a normal coma. "H-how's Nene? Is she the same way?"
