Yukiko nodded her head as she followed Chie in the direction Minori pointed out and opened her fan ready for whatever was waiting for them. She vowed to herself to keep her thoughts to herself as it seemed no one listened to her speak anyway.

Kazuma listened to his sister telling the location of the two dungeons. He was impressed indeed by this, he smiled gently praising his sister in his mind for the help. Now that the team was divided Kazuma was a bit worried for Minori, considering that he wouldn't be there with her, but he had to remind himself that she was a strong girl, and the people she was with was strong to so Minori was in good hands though he still felt like he should be the one to protect her. As Kazuma was about to head out, he walked over to Minori and poked her forehead gently. "Try not to get hurt okay Minori-nee. Now its your turn to show me if you really can defend yourself without good old Kazuma being by your side, but you know if you do get hurt I'll be there in a flash, unless you know the shadows and all." he said to her chuckling a bit before turning away to the direction of the other dungeon area. "Good luck Getting Faust Minori, Wish me luck too." he said to her before following Soji to the area of the dungeon.

Minori Koroko  She nodded in response to Souji's thanks, feeling the hesitation slowly wearing away. Minori turned then her attention to the leader's instructions, nodding once more. The thought of Kazuma going to a different dungeon didn't bother her. He was strong, and he had at least more experience than her in fighting shadows, and going through dungeons. Besides, she knew the team would do their best to protect each other; she already witnessed their strength back then. So, she wasn't worried about him. Though, what did bother her were the people kidnapped. Faust was it? She didn't know much about him, but that didn't stop her from worrying. Being trapped inside this world, listening to the shadow throwing feelings you should rather not hear and placing your own true self in question wasn't a pleasant feeling; so she rather do this as fast as they could, so the boy didn't have to go through that for long. Though, she knew, in the end, he would have to face his shadow, just as they had did.
Minori looked up, as Kazuma walked up to her. Feeling a light pressure on her forehead made her close her eyes for a moment. She blinked, her green eyes gazing at the boy intently. "I will." she answered to his comment. Of course she'll show she could be strong too...even if it wasn't directly on the battlefield. She smiled softly, looking at him as he walk towards their destination. "Be safe, Kazuma. Don't overdo it."

  Chie nodded, as the group returned to the lobby, noting that Souji and the others weren't back yet. Chie paused a bit, before turning to the others. "I'll make sure he gets home." she called, lightly. "You guys can stay here if you want, or not. But He needs to get out of here. Faust was drifting in and out of conciousness. Wherever he was, it was so foggy, and tiring. "Chie.." he called, lightly. "can I go home now?" Chie turned to him, and nodded lightly. "Just a bit Faust." she called, as she moved over to where the T.V.s were. "Laters guys." she called, as she lead him through the T.V.'s, heading back to the real world.

Yukiko nodded her head as she waved bye to Chie and Faust. "Don't forget about dinner now." She called after the girl as she was one to keep her promises. "I'll wait for Soji and his team if you guys want to head home." She suggested to the remaining members of their team as she looked around for a good place to wait for the other at.

Arriving at the lobby, the girl sighed tiredly, but a small smile plastered her face. They had done it to the lobby safely, and Faust was well...tired, but well. Now they could go home. If only the rest of the Investigation Team was there. She turned around, noticing the other group wasn't there waiting for them. The blonde girl frowned. Did that mean they were still inside the dungeon?
Her train of thought dispersed, listening to Chie explaining she would take Faust home. "Take care." Minori smiled faintly, watching the girl walking out of the TV with Faust. She really cared for him.
The blonde girl turned towards the rest, listening to Yukiko talking. She shook her head, turning to look at the direction of the dungeon in which the rest were fighting. "I'll wait too." Kazuma was in there, afterall. And even though she had faith in the rest of the team, she couldn't help but to feel a little nervousness, seeing them not here at the lobby at the time.

Yukiko nodded her head as Minori said she was going to stay and wait for the other group. Finding somewhere to sit, she took her time going to the spot and taking a seat there leaving her to her thoughts.
As she ran through her thoughts, she began playing with her fan swinging it back and forth. Looking up from her fan, she stared at the tvs when were their way back to their world.

Kazuma couldn't believe it as he crashed landed on the floor of the lobby. He did't think he would end up in the lobby cause of falcon punch, from kirby. This furiated him, but what else could he do. All he can do now was wait for Soji and the others to come out safe with Zeo. Still when he justt had his persona under control too this had to happen. Sitting on the floor Kazuma continued to wait for Soji

Soji Seta, Investigation Team Leader
The journey back to the Lobby after clearing the Final Destination was thankfully uneventful, though the ride itself hadn't exactly been pleasant...resting your stomach draped over heavy metals wasn't the most ideal of carriages, for certain. Especially when your stomach was coated with painful bruises from life-or-death battles throughout an entire dungeon modeled after some super-powered video game. After the insanity that was the world inside of Zeo's mind, the sight of the scaffolding of the lobby coming into view was a welcome reprieve. And the sight of some of his friends...Yukiko, Minori, Kazuma, and Teddie for starters...waiting on them was welcome enough to bring a small smile to his aching face. Relieving Zeo of the burden of his weight once they had made it onto the main area, he nodded painfully at his friends and then looked around, wanting to get as much of the attention as he could on he and the team that had come back as possible. They needed to trade information a bit, after all, and he wanted to be sure that everything had gone smoothly in rescuing Faust from the other dungeon without him there. It was the first time they had gone into a dungeon and come out of it without him there, after all. "It's good to see you guys," he told the other team members calmly, doing his best to keep his exhaustion from creeping into his expression or slouching his posture, "how did everything go? Is Faust safe?"
He waited quietly for an answer and for Zeo to step up with him. It was only right to let Zeo tell the other members of the team what they had learned about him inside his dungeon. After all, Soji really had no idea what in the world an Anti-Shadow Weapon was supposed to be, anyway. He had always thought that's what persona were...right?

Yukiko turned her head as she heard a crashing sound near where she was and got up to see what it was. "Soji. What happened to you?" She asked as she ran over to the group and took out her card cutting it in half having Amaterasu heal Soji. "It went fine. We got Faust and he accepted his shadow. Chie took him home as he was already faint." She answered as she looked over everyone else for any major injuries.

 Hetero, the Despondent One
"Aren't you kids forgetting something?" a thin, mocking voice called out from the top of the stack of televisions where the team usually made their exit, stopping their short-lived reunion with one another in its tracks, "you should save the celebrations until you've actually 'rescued' everybody. Isn't that how you heroes work?" Inevitably, the gathered team members below would follow the voice to the top of the television and its source, which at first glance appeared to be a man of sorts, surrounded by an ominous black and violet aura. His orange hair fell down below his ears with a stray bang raised up and hanging long, loosely to the side. Empty green eyes were strangely luminescent in the fog of the world inside the television, and his skin was a ghastly, impossible shade of white. Red and black underclothes were worn beneath a white jacket, white gloves, and white boots...giving a distinctly futuristic look to a man that looked otherwise dead...or perhaps something akin to a harbinger of death. Black orbs danced around his body in shifting globs, reminiscent of shadows flowing about on the floor of the TV World dungeons, and on his pristine, deathly features he wore a sneer and an air of superiority...an air of annoyance at simply having to look upon the members of the Investigation. In his eyes, they seemed to be akin to little more than a cockroach. Something he would squash beneath his feet.
The most striking thing about the man, however, was what he held in his hand...by the limp neck he held above the team the dead body of Junior Yasogami High Student, Hisoka Nakano.
"You didn't even blink when a third person appeared on the TV, did you? Never once considered that more than two people might get kidnapped? In fact, I bet none of you can even tell me this guy's name," he spat haughtily at the team members, who had been so certain of their victory that they failed to notice what he had so obviously done to the boy, "all of your heroics, your friendships...all they amount to is a pile of s**t! You only save the people that you know...the people that you care about. And you never even spare a second thought for the faceless people who move around you unless they forcefully inject themselves into your narrow little lives." Scoffing a bit at the team's intentions, their so-called good nature, he glanced around at each of the team members without moving a muscle...a pillar standing victorious on top of the television stack overhead, with proof of the team's latest failure. "You people disgust me, damned hypocrites! We warned you not to play your little game of 'saving the world' in here anymore, but you just didn't listen, did you? Arrogant kids like you should pay for your ignorance! And that's just what we're here to do...to show you the price of your sins. And the price you'll pay...is death!"
Without warning, the orange-haired man threw the limp body in his hand with light-quick speed into Kazuma, sending both he and the body bareling backwards into the far rails on the scaffolding together. The movement was so fast that you could barely see his hand. And all the while, the only expression that he bore on his lips was one of disinterest...of distaste.
Despair.

Yukiko Amagi
Future Manager of the Amagi Inn
Yukiko looked up from Soji as she was healing him to see a mysterious man that had a creepy aura to him. She listened to him as he talked about how no one even thought of a third person being taken and how they never paid attention to anyone that wasn't a part of their lives. "Soji. Did you see the third figure last night? Did you know someone else was taking other than Faust and Zeo?" She asked looking at the body that laid on top of Kazuma's.
She continued her healing of Soji not waiting for an answer before moving to Naoto and healing the young detective. Once done with her, she looked over at Kazuma and the body almost unsure of what to do. Deciding that it was best to take care of Kazuma, she stood up straighting her kimono as she walked over to the boy, kneeling down before allowing Amaterasu to heal him all the while looking at the limp figure.

Kazuma stood up as the man surrounded by the aura of malicous intent. At first glance he saw him as a enemy, but not like an normal enemy like the Shadows. No, this man was like Raiden, a mysterious man of unknown extent of power. He didn't like this, not one bit. As the man talked about a third person getting the tv and died by the hand of this man. Hearing this man rant on a view veins started to pop on his forehead. Throwing off his already damaged shirt Kazuma was now angry beyond believe. He had enough of this man's talking, he didn't have any right to say that to him although deep down, he could understand little of what the man was trying to say. Then his moments of thinking was lost as he was striked down by the dead body in which the man threw at him. looking at the lifeless body, Kazuma frozed a bit. How could he do something so devilish to a boy like this. He didn't understand, nor did he want to at the moment. The less he knew the more easier it was to hit him. After Yukiko healed up the wounded Kazuma he walked slowly looking up at the man with a pure glare of death. "Amatsu-Mikaboshi." he said pulling and crushing his card summoning a fully raged persona. "Launch me" he commanded his persona with a engraged voice. His persona launched up towards the man with his sword. Coming with tremendous speed Kazuma throw out a punch that was going for the man's fast..

Soji Seta, Investigation Team Leader
"Thanks, Yukiko," the silver-haired Senior smiled honestly at the Amagi heiress as her magic worked wonders to seal his wounds and mend the damage that had been done to him both on the inside and outside of his body. He had been dealt several serious blows by Zeo's shadow and the other creatures he had fought in there, but now that he was beginning to heal he was able to look on the bright side of things. The team had run through two dungeons, operating separately, and saved two different people who had been kidnapped and thrown into the television. All-in-all, the venture into the television had been a rousing success...or at least, that's what they had thought. 'What the...who?' were the only thoughts that Soji had run through his head as a cold voice broke their reunion, speaking from on high like some sort of wannabe preacher talking down to his sinful pulpit. Listening to the way that he spoke to them, the way he mocked their efforts and talked about the images on the screen last night, the leader of their group began to run through everything he had seen in his mind on the television last night...there were two figures. He knew he had only seen two of the rough figures that usually denoted someone being thrown into the television. But then, what...?! His eyes widened. "The flash at the end...that was an entirely different person," he realized, speaking painfully but just loud enough that Yukiko would hear him and understand the implication. The message had changed again, and it wasn't like the others...but there was no doubt that a third person had been on the Midnight Channel last night! Damn it, how had he and the others not seen it?! How did they overlook it? And more disturbingly, how hadn't they sensed the third presence in the television when they entered the TV before? Had Minori's scan been wrong?
"Minori didn't sense him," he thought out loud, letting everybody know the same thing...if they didn't sense him, they couldn't have known. It wasn't their fault, despite what the man was saying, though it was increasingly hard to believe that when they were the only ones who could have stopped it. But he had to say it. "Rise didn't sense him. Either they can hide the presence of another person in the television, or he was dead when we got here. Isn't that...huh?! Kazuma, wait!" Soji called out, reaching a hand towards Kazuma but too late to stop him from throwing his attack on the man atop the televisions. 'Damn it, we can't fight someone like that right now!' he thought frantically, pulling out his card and drawing his sword up loosely in front of him, ready to fight in spite of his exhaustion. Thankfully, Yukiko had healed his wounds enough to fight...now he just needed his woefully drained stamina to hold up long enough to protect his friends. "Yukiko, heal Naoto and protect yourselves. Everyone, when I give the signal, head for the television," he ordered calmly, as quietly as he could, not wanting to do anything hasty that would draw their enemy's fire. He prepared to crush his own card and launch an attack to cover their retreat and to protect Kazuma from further attack if his strike missed...but whatever they were doing, it was only stalling for time.
He already knew...right now, this was a fight that they couldn't win.
