→Naoto Shirogane: The Detective Prince!← It wasn't too far and long ago that Naoto herself had recieved the text sent from none other than Soji Seta himself. As urgent as it was the girl ran as fast as she could to arrive here, and she was pretty sure that everyone else was as well. Matters that were revolved around the TV World were to never be taken lightly. The girl had prepared herself as well as she had her gun ready, her hat, and well, just prepared to enter battle in general. Now in the TV World, Mayonaka Lobby the girl took a long around to first off see if Minori or Rise were already here. To her displease she saw that they weren't here yet, and better off, not many of the other Investigation Team members have shown up. Although, she was glad to see that at least Kanji and Chie were here, some of the original Investigation Team members, along with three of their newer ones. Still though, there was to be no sign of Minori nor Rise here, and they were their main sources to finding Soji before it was too late.

Faustus Necromonium and Kusuri Keiraku Faust didn't quite feel comfortable back in the T.V. World. It had been far too long since his last visit to the place, and though he had grown, it still felt strange to be in here.
Slipping on his glasses, he looked around for the others, waiting on Minori or Rise. They needed them to get to wherever it was they were going. Still...Faust had a bad feeling about this.... Kusuri herself was a bit shocked. I mean, going inside a T.V.? That was like something out of a game. However, she still figured she'd go along with this. She had to make sure Faust didn't get himself hurt, now didn't she?
Brandishing a shortsword, and wearing some purple rimmed glasses, she stood alongside him, waiting.
She'd pay back those that kidnapped her a thousand fold..

Yukiko Amagi  "Chie, Kanji, Naoto!" the dark haired girl arrived at the familiar lobby, her gaze automatically landing on her teammates, a small sigh leaving her lips. She couldn't really call it relief, though. There were still many worries inside of her mind, the most important being their leader. He was still hurt, the wounds and scars she had seen the night before flashing inside of her mind. But...she had faith in him, and like she had said the night before...she would follow him. They would end this, together; and the team wouldn't let him get this hurt ever again...She wouldn't... And well, there was still the strangeness of the situation as a whole. The Black Messengers Hideout... Why would Kazuma give them this information now...Why wait? It was strange in itself; it all being a trap appearing in her mind as a possibility. There was no way they could trust fully a man who had betrayed his comrades...twice. Either way, though, hs words would lead them somewhere; and whether it was Hetero and his group, or a trap...they would be ready. They would have to wait and see, right? Yukiko turned to look at Chie, giving her a nod. She was right, and even if she knew this, her words bringing a little more confidence to the dark haired heiress, tightening the grip of her fan. "Yes. We won't back down." Minori Koroko The TV World... No matter how many times she had been there, it always brought a heavy weight on her stomach and ran a shiver down her spine. Minori had received the message like the rest of the team, and took little time to react and change her steps towards Junes. She couldn't help the sickening feeling inside her gut as she looked at the message on the screen of her cellphone...It was almost as if the BM had waited until the lockdown had been lifted to actually act this forward. And perhaps this could be the end...the fight they had been waiting for, but...it could also be a trap. It was all too suspicious, all too simple...But, whatever it was, they would be ready. They would fight and find answers. "Sorry for the delay..." the blond mumbled to the waiting team, not catching glimpse of the silverette. He had gone on ahead... And here she was losing time and making the others wait. Well...better do this quick then. Minori summoned her persona, Airmeith scanning the familiar place, in search of the leader of their team. A frown appeared on her lips, noticing also the new path that opened around them...one that hadn't been there before. "Alright... I got it. It's over there." she said, pointing a finger at the foggy distance. "Is everyone ready?"

Dan Sekohara The white haired hero hefted his Dan Hammer onto his shoulder again and nodded to Minori. He was ready for the fight of his life, it was time to kick a** Dan Sekohara style. "Let's do this..." He said vacantly as he mentally prepared for battle. Quite frightening to think... that he could die. But in the name of justice he couldn't be scared it was time to end this.

Rednal Ak'ThiasGetting a bit... hard to think... maybe I'm still tired from yesterday. Rednal grimaced a bit, then quietly uncapped a small orange vial and swallowed a pill from inside of it to help settle him down. Always important to remember his health; if his heart beat too hard, that would be bad, and the same if he relaxed a bit too much. More importantly, though, he had to stay strong in front of all the other newer people. Had to help them... since he was the first of the newer part of the team. Why wouldn't his head stop throbbing, though? "Let's go, then." Rednal said, making rather more of an effort than showed on his face or in his voice to keep steady. He had to appear strong for everyone else, to always stand up so they'd have somebody to support them. I Am Thou. Thou Art I.

Faustus Necromonium and Kusuri Keiraku Faust nodded, as he started to follow the group, noticing Rednal seeming a bit off to him, but still ready to fight. Was something wrong? Faust himself felt his head pounding a bit, but he figured that that was normal for today. With the whole incident of the previous night behind him it wasn't a surprise. Either way, he figured it'd subside soon enough. And with his power, he'd put an end to the black Messengers. And Protect the ones he loved.
Kusuri nodded enthusiastically as she moved, wondering just what she was going to be up against. Hopefully not another clone of herself. She hadn't really had to fight shadows before, so she had to be ready for whatever was coming up. She tightened her grip on her weapon, noticing Faust's hanging from his belt-loop. What kind of weapon......

KANJI.tasumi ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀
The gang was all here, and Soji was already going through the dungeon to do whatever he needed to do. They had be waiting more than enough to get on with the final battle with Hetero. Thinking that it was time to get moving Kanji began to walk towards the entrance of the Data Dungeon World. He wasn't taking his time on that either, Soji was still hurt from his last battle; as strong as he was the brute I.team member couldn't help but worry for the leader of the team. "Alright guys let's move!" he yelled out to his fellow members. Kanji was more than ready to do what he did best when it came to fighting the baddies, bash all their heads in with his trusted steel chair. Wasn't going to be long now, Kanji was sure that they won't come out of this without some wounds, but if it meant stopping Hetero, the man that was disturbing the peace in Inaba, it was damn well worth the pain.

 Chie Satonaka
The short-haired girl grinned to herself and nodded over to Yukiko with confidence, moving side by side to her then looked ahead. "I'm ready when you are." she said, determination burning in those brown eyes, setting her sights on the goal to end this all! With Minori pointing to the way of where their dear friend and leader was, Chie nodded and then patted at her fists then looked over to Kusuri and Dan. With confidence like that, yeah, they're ready. Maybe not to the fullest, but perhaps with the will to be on the battlefield, then let them fight and give it their all! "Alright!" She called out and started to run forward to the direction of where Soji might just be. She hoped that he's doing alright, that he's not in too much trouble.
 Amelia M. Heartilly
Amelia smiled towards Minori, nodding over to her then placed a hand to the girl's shoulder. The blond would be able to see the fire burning into those violet orbs, the senior vowing herself to protect Minori and to take down the enemy side by side with her fellow comrades. Amelia looked ahead, seeing that their path has been set and ready for them to move on forward. Her eyes took a glance over to Kusuri and Dan, noticing the language that they were giving off and also picked up on her white haired friend. No doubt... he was probably frightened. Amelia gave a reassuring nod to him, smiling as well that... well.. even she was starting to feel that bit of fear and anxiousness creeping into her. She hasn't had much TV World experience like the others, but, still.. with the adrenaline starting to well up in her chest, she had to cast that thought aside. And once Chie and the others would move for their leader, she would too.

Dan Sekohara The white haired hero had to stand by Soji's side! Dashing off ahead of the group Dan came through the gate right after Kanji and was ready to die by his new best buddy's side. Dan had run as hard as he could the adrenaline pumping hard through his blood in this strange new world. Spinning his Dan Hammer in his hands Dan readied for battle. "Soji-san! I've got your back!" Dan swung his hammer enthusiastically as he readied for battle. "I'm Gonna knock Hetero's head off!!!" He was nervous for sure but he wouldn't let it show because he was... DAN SEKOHARA DEFENDER OF JUSTICE HUMANITY!!!!!!!

Dan Sekohara The feeling of air flowing through his hair. Why were they here again? Dan's muscles prepared for impact, clenching tight together. Did this mean he was still alive? The feel of his giant hammer's weight on his back. Would they survive this time? Dan's thoughts all melted away when he felt the impact of his legs upon the Mayonaka lobby. All that was left was the pure battle spirit of the hero clad in white. His eyes burned with heroic fire. He was going to crush Hetero's puny skull with his hammer this time. No matter what he would keep everyone on the other side of the TV safe, even if it cost him his life. Dan raised his hand and gripped the hilt of his weapon firmly. His mind was clear, his body strong, every bone in the white haired hero's body was on the brink of super nova, all it needed was the spark. This would be the final battle with the forces of darkness, Dan would make sure of that this time.

 Faustus Necromonium, the Trappish Junior and Kusuri Keiraku, the violent JuniorAs Dan stood, he would soon be joined by a pair of individuals, Faust and Kusuri having made it. However, close inspection would show that the two weren't quite in the best condition. Some of their clothes were tattered, some were burned, and a few red spots covered closed wounds. Faust really hoped it wasn't anything related to what had happened with Teros and Kazuma, the two having apparently being around just to screw with them that night. "I'm.....I'm here." he stated, sliding on his glasses as he stood in the world. His breaths were labored, but he seemed mostly alright....The Purple haired junior looked a little worse for wear, her clothes more torn, and a fair amount of her blood having dried into her shirt. WIthout Faust's healing, she wouldn't even be there right now, and possibly shouldn't be. But she refused to let Faust go off on his own, and leave her in some questionably safe hospital. She stood, still clutching her body as she waited, her glasses still okay at least. But damn if her body didn't ache.

Minori Koroko and Yukiko Amagi  It wasn't long before two other figures joined the growing team inside of the television lobby. The onyx haired senior stood up straight, catching the eyes of the ones that had arrived before her, giving them a determined nod of recognition, even if there was a faint waver on her dark eyes, while the blond supported herself against the long weapon, without saying much. There was one thought in common, probably the same that wandered through the minds of the rest of the team. The Midnight Channel... it had been so different from past times. More disturbing, ominous...more dangerous in a sense. It had chilled her bones, and the shrieks and panicked screams of the shadows had been a warning of the worst to come. The ferocious and heartless massacre and the malicious laughter just a reinforcement of that. Yukiko frowned, eyes lowering to the floor for a moment, not finding words to say at the moment. Was the rest of the team as scared as she was? Was the terrible feeling clinging to her chest only her own? Defeating Hetero and destroying the Data Dungeon World had brought a sense of relief and security to her, even if only for a while. It made her believe that things were changing for good. One less thing to worry about, even if other wrongs kept growing around them. This...this new menace, whatever it might be, threatened on breaking this comfort blanket... and it was unsettling, to say the least.
Obsidian eyes shifted away from her feet, turning to look at the others, if only to keep herself busy before the rest of the team arrived. Dan seemed confident, as usual, making the heiress curve the corner of her lips upward if only a little, Rise and Soji were up ahead, both determined and ready to encounter whatever they were going against...Minori seemed tired, but green orbs were set in concentration, never to give up despite everything; and then there were Faust and Kusuri...who looked as if they had been in a fight of their own before this. Had it something to do with the ice earlier that night? She wondered... and with a few steps she got closer to the couple, worried eyes falling on the purple haired girl. "Hey, what happened to you guys? You don't look so good. Here, let me help..."
The blond girl bit her lower lip, the grip around her weapon tightening as eyes wandered away from the Amagi heiress as she sent a wave of healing magic over the wounded. Would giving her a little rest kill the Gods up there? It was task after task...almost never ending. A sigh escaped her but she shook her head nonetheless, fixing the glasses over her nose. Rest...rest would come when all these groups and strange occurrences end...no sooner. The blond was well aware of that, and if something was pushing her forward, this fact was part of it. The other was the hope to bring everything back to how it was before. No more shadows, strange entities and groups, fear, pain...Yes, they would fight, and they would end all this. There was no doubt to that. She would lend all her strength to the cause, and she would do her best. How...how much longer would she be able to keep up before breaking though...she wasn't so sure herself.

Rednal Ak'ThiasOne thing after another today, isn't it? Rednal thought as he fingered the ring that Zeo hadn't taken after all. Sigh. What was it with some days, where they just turned out to be an endless sequence of problematical events? Like whatever was going on around here. Well, Yidhra had recovered her power, and even as Rednal waited, he could feel his Persona's restlessness deep inside of his mind. Icy fingers gripping his soul, whispers just shy of understandable, and a burning desire to consume her enemies... huh. Well, this was important, too, and he found that he was actually restless. It used to be that he could sit for hours, if need be, but he'd become a lot more aware of how quickly time flew by... and it was an interesting feeling, this one, of just wanting to get up and get going. Well, things would happen as they would. "So, this is the third thing today? Just like the good old days..." he mused. Weird ice, then Kazuma and Teros, and now this. Hmm.

Leon Mori
Leon emerged from the entrance not long after Faust and Kusuri, His dark blade wrapped in a cloth. "I'm here." He looked left to right, noting his comrades that were already there. Sliding his glasses over his eyes, he let out a light sigh, proceeding to take the cloth off his sword. "So here we are again, huh?" In the back of his mind, he had to wonder how many of his comrades still had full faith in him. But to hell with that, he was here to do a job, and more willing than ever to risk his life.

Soji Seta, Investigation Team Leader and Rise Kujikawa, Investigation Team Idol They were beginning to file in now, one after another, a procession that he had become used to far more than he ever wanted to be; footsteps on the floor of the strange lobby where they ritualistically entered to chase down whatever threats appeared on their television, each one filled him with a growing sense of hope and strength while simultaneously plunking like a rock in the lake at the bottom of his stomach. He stood stoically beside Rise as her persona scanned, but for a while now the satellite atop Kanzeon hadn't moved, steadily pointing in a single direction as if it had locked onto a signal that it couldn't get away from if it tried. His hand was on the shoulder of his girlfriend in the midst of her scan, he could feel the shudder pass through her more than once during the process, and he tried to tell himself that it had nothing to do with what was on the other end of the persona's broadcast or the cryptic images that they had seen on the television. Was he hoping against hope that things were less dire than they had appeared? Was he hoping that he dungeon would be different from what his expectations, what the stories he had been told, suggested that ti might have been? He had heard someone tell him once about something that could get the shadows scrambling so wildly, though it wasn't with fear that they were running but anticipation. This was different, but similar all at the same time. ...Whatever was happening here, if it was on the Midnight Channel he suspected that it had to have something to do with Simon Kongo. It had been his playground for some time now, his own little show to broadcast terror to the citizens of Inaba and mock them as they dealt with whatever supernatural business was plaguing them this time. Still, he couldn't be sure until the scan of the TV World had finished just what sort of threat had brought them out of their homes at this time of night in order to investigate. Normally, he would have waited for the morning and spoken with everyone before heading inside, but with the town so full of threats both imminent and lingering, with the unusual nature of that thing and the panic of the shadows, everything had been lent an immediate and gripping importance. And then there was Tatsuya Suou's warning...his word echoing in Soji's ears even as Kanzeon dissipated and his girlfriend turned under his hand to the reveal what she had found.
He did not miss the dark look of horror that seemed to gloss over her eyes just then, and renewed all at once was his desire to just see all this over, to never have to bring his friends into the middle of all this, ever again.
"Senpai, I found it. It's...inside of a really, really big tower. That way," she pointed as she had described the location with unusual clarity, as though she had been able to see far more of whatever was going on than usual...which begged the question of 'why' she could see it more clearly. Did it pierce the fog? Was it like Rise as well, capable of sending out a signal inside the TV? ...Was it trying to draw them in? And if it wasn't, was it possible that this thing was really just that powerful that even the fog couldn't conceal it? His mind was racing with possibilities, but even as he thought, Rise was continuing on with her observation, not wanting to leave anything out that might make their mission a little clearer. She might not know what it meant, but if anybody did, she was confident it would be their incomparable leader, Soji. "We have to be careful, Senpai...there's something really weird going on inside of the tower. It feels like," she paused to think and collect her words before continuing, "like all the shadows inside are in complete chaos. But at the same time, it's like they're all coming together into one really big, powerful shadow...but different. I don't know how to explain it. ...Do you think it's got anything to do with that voice...that thing we saw on the TV?" Her eyes were scared and hopeful, searching for an answer in him...confident that he would never fail them, comforted by his unflinching presence, his ability to rise when everything seemed darkest to be the beacon of light they needed. And from the look of it, a new dark was brewing. Soji listened intently to her explanation and thought instinctively that she was right, knew somehow, as though the world itself were telling it to him that something foul was on the air near that tower in the distance through the fog.
But if they wanted to know the truth, they were going to have to go investigate. To do it the same as always...though, he could only hope that his teammates would be able to survive the trial, ragged as they seemed to be. From person-to-person he looked and they all seemed drained, exhausted by the constant string of fights that had engaged them, supernatural torrents of threat after threat that had utterly drained their strength and had them running on nothing but will and duty alone. They were starting to look...a lot like he did, when he looked in the mirror these days. They looked tired...they looked like they wanted nothing more than to just go home.
They shouldn't have to do all this anymore...
"Yukiko, get everybody as strong as you can with your magic," he gently ordered the heiress, hoping that bringing everybody's health back to normal might also restore some of their vitality, before he donned his glasses and looked at them with that confident, determined look that always hardened their spirits when the dark was upon them, "Everyone...you heard Rise. We're going to the [Tower] in that direction. ...Stay with me just a little bit longer. You're going to make it through this...I promise."
Nodding emphatically, the corner of his lips curled into a small smile, one so warm and casual that it couldn't have looked as forced as it must have been. And then, with a flourish, he turned towards the scaffolding which lead towards the tower with his jacket fluttering behind him. Drawing his two swords, he held them prone at his sides as he walked forward and set foot on the next path they would follow...moving without hesitation into an uncertain future. Quote: Investigation Team...Moving Out! Next stop: The Tower of Demise!
