♛♚Daigo Umehara♚♛
 The Black Haired Ex-Hero stretched his arms and yawned. Winter wonderland? How much fun... Daigo yawned and reached into his jacket pulling out his cigarette case and plucked it out as if he was plucking a perfectly ripe fruit. Placing it between his lips he reached back into his vest and pulled out his plated lighter and light up. Taking a long drag and then taking an equally long exhale he finally decided to look around. Pulling his evoker from his waist and the stiletto knife from his pocket he was ready to take on anything that came for him. Maybe there were other nyxists in here somewhere and he may have had an ally but then again... Were there even nyxists anymore? He didn't know what happened to his messiah.

"This is certainly.... interesting." Haseo said to himself, hands inside his pockets as he wandered the halls of what was the Yasogami Highschool, only it was encased in ice, frozen solid. It was quite cold, but it wasn't something that could cause hypothermia, at least, he hoped so. He had his evoker tucked tightly inside his jacket, deciding that he would need it regarding the situation. After all, it's not normal for an entire school to be encased in ice, in the middle of the summer no less. Though, he couldn't rely on just his Persona as well, and had decided to bring along a butterfly knife with him for when he'd have to get physical. He decided to wander the halls more, but then smelt the familiar scent of tobacco. Curious, he decided to follow it to the source, encountering another man smoking. "Hey there."

Kawa
Kawa had been walking around, before coming up on a familiar figure. "Daigo Nii-chan!!" she called, as she started forward the smoking figure.
However, the ice that was encasing the area proved a bit much for her, and as such, she slid and fell on her face, lightly sobbing as she tried to get back to her feet.
"Where...are we Daigo-nii-chan?" she asked, before noticing someone else approach as she struggled to get back to her feet.
Why was Ice so Slick?

'Honest' Hiiro Let's make a deal... A voice rang out through the air, slick and smooth like the ice beneath their feet. "Welcome, all of you, to this exclusive time here at my shop! I'm your host, 'Honest' Hiiro, and I'll be your companion today. Unfortunately, company policy says that not everyone can get a good bargain, so I'm afraid the specials will be on a first-come, first-serve basis... Over on the table there are two pieces of paper with instructions on them. Follow that, and everything you dream of may be yours..." the voice vanished, the location of its owner uncertain, but a spotlight did start to shine on a table with two envelopes on top of it. What was going on here, and why was the bargaining man from the shopping district hanging out in a place like this?Quote: Envelope 1: Unclaimed Instructions: ??? Status: Incomplete Envelope 2: Unclaimed Instructions: ??? Status: Incomplete

♛♚Daigo Umehara♚♛
 Daigo was surprised that the two people found him immediately, he half expected to have been alone in the maze but rather it seemed like there was a little party forming. Although he didn't know the young man who approached him. Slipping his evoker into the back of his pants he carefully and almost unnoticeably pulled his vest back down over it. Didn't want any trouble especially not with sweet little Kawa around. Taking one long last drag on the current cigarette he tossed the cancer stick to the floor as the filter began to burn and snuffed it with his patent leather italian shoes. Reaching into his vest again quickly he pulled out two cigarettes. Placing one in his mouth he offered the other one to the young man. "You smoke?" His lip twitched with a sudden nervousness when he realized that Kawa may have not been on her meds. Tossing the cigarette over to the boy he crouched down infront of Kawa. "Hey Kawa-chan...let me help you." Placing his hands under he little arms lifted her up onto his hip. She wasn't very heavy and he couldn't let her fall on the ice again. Tousling little Kawa's hair he smiled softly, "I think we are at school Kawa-chan." His head almost snapped to the young man whom he had thrown the cig to. "You got anything to do with this?" He asked mumbling into his cig as he lit it with one hand and then offered the lighter. Just then the man's voice passed over them and the light shone on the table. Sliding without walking Daigo skated atop the ice to the table and picked up the second envelop for himself and Kawa. The dark haired antihero deftly opened the little with one hand and held it up to see what it said.

Kawa
Kawa smiled happily as Daigo picked her up. "Thanks Daigo-Nii-chan!!" she called as she hugged him, before hearin the voice talking about the pieces of paper with the instructions on there.
She opened it lightly, as she held it open, trying to figure out just what the paper said.
She wasn't the best at Reading....but she'd give it her best. She didn't want to dissapoint her big brother after all..

"Hmm?" Haseo grunted, turning towards the slick and sudden voice that suddenly rang out. That was quite weird. He mentioned this place being his 'shop', but this was clearly a level in the Yasogami Highschool building. "Everything we may dream of, huh?" Haseo muttered to himself, looking at the table with the two envelopes atop it. He heard the first man ask him something, but he couldn't quite hear it because he was focused on the envelopes. Was it really as the shopkeeper said? What were the chances of it being a trap? Regardless, nothing ventured, nothing gained, he figured. He noticed something flying towards him through his peripheral vision and quickly caught it, realizing that it was a cigarette. He didn't smoke, but it was something he was meaning to try. 'Maybe later.' he thought, pocketing it. Hearing the man's second question, he shook his head. "Nope. I'm quite clueless as to the situation of the area." he answered, walking towards the table and picked up the other envelope on the table. He looked at it for a while before facing the man. "By the way, I'm Haseo. Haseo Yamagada. You?"

'Honest' Hiiro Let's make a deal... "Unfortunately, this world hasn't moved beyond a scarcity economy. There's never enough of anything to go around, and that's what really helps to drive business. If people had everything they wanted with no trouble, the world wouldn't be half as interesting. I like making deals, personally. Good deals, bad deals, crazy deals, and I'm more than happy to make deals with all of you. The rest of you can just go ahead and pass through the doors now, but the two who got the envelopes will get to deal a little with lessons of scarcity. Don't be shy, now, there's many chances at a bargain to come. I'm 'Honest' Hiiro, and I always hold up my side of a bargain..."Quote: Envelope 1: Haseo Instructions: Take the paper with the instructions from the other envelope and bring both papers to the door over there. Only one person may pass through with these papers. Status: Incomplete Envelope 2: Kawa Instructions: Take the paper with the instructions from the other envelope and bring both papers to the door over there. Only one person may pass through with these papers. Status: Incomplete

Kawa
Kawa looked at the papers, as she held them up. "Take...da....paper wi...th the instructions....from...de...ohther Enbelobe.....and....b..bwriing bowth paypers...to...da...door...over...dere.." she called out "Only....one...persun....mey...pass...through...with...dese...papers....", as she looked at the other one, held by Haseo.
"Excuse me, Mister...." she called, wincing a bit as her head hurt. "Can I please have that paper?"
It was always polite to say 'please' whenever you wanted something, right?

Koizeki Tanibasaki The Only thing Worse than to be Alone Is to be dead... XXXXX The world has gone mad. Mad! Just mad. This wasn't happening, not to this boy not to anyone. Koizeki was feeling the pressure of a perfect life crumbling against his feet when the school changed its form. It would take a miracle to remember what was normal now. When the boy realize he was on the floor trying to process the whole thing when he got up he saw 5 people standing in front of them. "Where are we?" He asked to the closest person (Daigo) Looking at the most suspicious man in the group (Honest Hiiro) "Who is that guy?" Koizeki was obviously confused at what was going on. He held his comp in his hand not knowing what the man was capable of but he was sure that he was up to no good.

'Honest' Hiiro Let's make a deal... "Oh, too bad, time's up! These deals don't last forever, you know, you gotta hurry up if you want to get the specials!" Hiiro called, sounding quite regretful as pillars of ice enclosed Kawa, Haseo, and even Asuka. "Now, why don't you remaining lucky fellows just come on down to my shop here? And then... let's make a deal." the voice faded away as the gate onwards stood invitingly open. Hmm.Quote: Asuka has been frozen and can no longer act! Haseo has been frozen and can no longer act! Kawa has been frozen and can no longer act!

Koizeki Tanibasaki The Only thing Worse than to be Alone Is to be dead... XXXXX Its cold, freezing... this was all so new to him. "I-I, I don't understand. his voice was almost cracking in fear. Not taking his eye of the suspicious man he intently listened to every word the man said in a defencive stance, it was almost as soon as his words came to an end the cold air instantly began to drastically drop, the cold became frigid, then he saw it the moment when the group froze only him another kid and the stranger were left unfrozen. The air finally began to go back to its cold air. "Wha-what was that!?" he yelled calming himself down he wasn't used to fighting with a comp nor was he comfortable with whatever comes out of it. It was of no surprise that the boy would be afraid. "I'm guessing we have to do what he says, unless we want to be human Popsicles..." Koizeki laughed nervously walking towards the door, the air from the door pulled Koizeki almost as if the air had hands and arms. "So what do we need to do?" The boy asked almost hesitating before fully going through the door.

'Honest' Hiiro Let's make a deal... "Why, dear Customer, what makes you think you need to do anything? There's not a person in the world who's made a deal with me that they were required to! It's bad for business to force your customers into things. Of course, you see, I'm a Businessman... I can let you out of here, as long as you're willing to pay my price. Nothing's free, but 'Honest' Hiiro always gives a fair price! Now, I know what you want, but do you know what I want...? Exercise! Healthy for the body and the mind! Defeat me, and I may just let you pass!"

Koizeki Tanibasaki The Only thing Worse than to be Alone Is to be dead... XXXXX Litsening intently to 'Honest' Hiiro's speech; Koizeki tried to make sense of it all but none of his thoughts would connect with what he was saying. "For a fair bargain, that doesn't seem very fair-" Koizeki said looking down to the floor making his final dicision as carefully as possible. getting into a comfortable stance he clutched the sheeth to his sword and carefully analized the enemy. 'He might be hiding something... but... I have no time to argue.' He thought to himself. Looking straight to the enemy Koizeki finished his sentence. "-But if its the only fair bargain out of here, then have at it!" Looking straight at the enemy He quikly dashed to the enemy, careful about not slipping on the ice; he unsheethed his sword and took a wide and fast swing at the enemy.
