 Naoto Shirogane
The Detective Prince of Inaba Footsteps could be heard near Rednal, marking the approach of another. Turning, he'd see it was the blue haired teammate Naoto. She looked up at the tower. But her face didn't betray a lot of her thoughts. Most of them revolving around Soji, his shadow, and what they were going to do once inside, just hoping the Messiah wouldn't draw in too many in their favor. They were losing too much to the group, losing any more wasn't going to be let go tonight without a fight. She knew that. She glanced at Rednal and nodded, silently letting it be known she was as ready as any one else in their team who decided to show up tonight.

  Faustus Necromonium and Kusuri KeirakuAs if to comfort Nix, a pair of figures moved to her side, one placing a gentle hand on her shoulder. As she would turn, she would recognize the green haired Junior from the day before, albeit with much shorter hair. He silently nodded and looked at the others, watching quietly. Just...what was going on?Kusuri stood on Nix's right side, a half inch closer to the action than the white haired one. As if saying with her body language. "don't worry, I'll protect you."
She wasn't afraid, though the image of Souji's shadow was hella unnerving. Either way, she wasn't going to back down tonight. Not when there were so many lives at stake.

 Karu Raiku: The Average Senior There was a lot of people here. So this was that Souji Seta kid. Higher Purpose, well Karu couldn't argue about this thing called the Dark Hour. This must be that strange time as the message said when the sky turns green not to mention electronics didn't work. Ten Seconds well dang, so did he real want to rewrite the world? This really wasn't that hard of a choice for the Senior. "Nope..." Was he afraid of the consequences of his choice? of course he was, it wasn't likely if this Souji Seta guy was the leader of these Black Messiahs. He probably wasn't going to take the fact that people were choosing against him. A group calling themselves Messiah, bloody hell I can't trust them really. Black Messiahs, Persona... Kind of a lot to take in. But I won't regret my choice' People and the world were as bad as he was saying. Sure war sucked, poverty was bad, and there was crappy television. The first two definitely outweighing the third in how bad they were. But besides that world seemed to be working pretty well. Been functioning on the same system to hundreds of thousands of years, why change it now. It's not like there was any way to tell if Seta was lying about their goals. I didn't matter now, Karu had made his choice now. Quote: Choose wisely...you cannot go back once you have made your decision!
- I will join you, Master, and safeguard mankind's evolution into the New World!
- Humans are not as bad as you say they are! This world can still be saved! I refuse!

Wow, So cool. She looked around the lobby listening to Souji's speech. She had never heard of him before but apparently like a lot of people from the school and around town knew him so he must have been pretty cool. Power call 'Persona' , Dark Hour, It was enough to make her head spin. New World well that sounded awesome, and maybe she could use those powers and find those people she had escaped from and show them true pain. Oh just the thought of that had her convinced. A bright twisted smile formed on her face as she looked up to Seta "I, Sawyer, am with you evolution, new world it sound perfect." This guy had given her power, she use to just be a tool for research now she was special. She could she could fight against those people doing things the 'right' way and those Good People that want to keep things how they were, the same type a people that were okay with keeping a young child in captivity testing on her until she proved no longer useful.Quote:

'Why must they startle with their dawn alarums...' 'I yearn to dream again a dream of that night' Amagai Genji, the Shining Heir He had heard the message; even in the comforts of his home, the gates locked tightly and security all around him, he knew that he couldn't simply hide away and ignore the plight of those who had been drawn in to the tempting voice of that man...the one whose name was so familiar, his face just as it had been described to him, though there was obviously something different about him. Golden eyes, like the shadows that had been described to him, this thing put off an aura that was black and evil, chaotic but controlled, he was like the shade the other night that had tormented them all and nearly taken his life from him on two occasions. He couldn't ignore that other people now stood in the same position he had been only a few nights past, only more vulnerable, standing before an enemy that was infinitely more dangerous than even the Shade that had threatened he, Rednal, and the others. How could he abandon them when the others hadn't abandoned him the other day? He could have been one of those Messiahs if Teros had his way, taking him by force rather than trying to persuade him, and would his mind have been stolen away like this one seemed intent on brainwashing the others tonight? Would he have been persuaded if not for his own eyes which could pierce the veil of mystery and see into the darkness? He wondered...his body had moved mechanically, scaling down the side of his second-story window to the bottom with a cat-like grace honed from years of martial arts training. He crossed the courtyard under cover of darkness and hopped the wall of the grounds far down from the gate and the watchful eyes of the guards. Cameras might have caught his movements, but he didn't care. He would be long gone before they noticed, off to the Tower that stood looming high above what would have by-day been Junes.
His feet carried him with an impressive swiftness until he stood before the twisted gate of the Dark Tower, some familiar and unfamiliar faces already beginning to gather before the gate. Instantly he recognized some of them from the descriptions that he had been given once before...the scarred girl was Kusuri, who looked just as strong and impressive as he had heard, and the guy beside her must have been Faust...though his hair was much shorter than he had been told. Naoto was already here, and there was a girl with long, blue hair whom he couldn't help but think looked rather nervous. And then there were others...he could see coming in from the distance a familiar silver head of hair that helped to put him at a much greater ease. Here was somebody that he had fought beside and that, through combat, had shown definitively where his loyalties lay. He knew that when the going was tough, this was somebody that he could count on...and that if he was here beside the others, they would be just as dependable. It was who they were...it was why he was compelled to join them in their fight.
"This is the first time I've ever witnessed this tower so close from the bottom," he noted as he looked up the evil-looking structure with his soft, gray eyes, smiling ruefully as he considered the journey it might take to reach the top, "The view makes it seem as though it goes on forever, doesn't it?" 'when hours are yet required to thaw the ice?' 'the nights go by in lonely wakefulness...'

 Aleister Crowley
"That's amazing. A tower springing up at the stroke of Midnight, only to stand in an hour that shouldn't exist. Truly fascinating." Crowley said, rubbing a hand under his chin as he pressed himself against the wall, touched the strange materials, and looked upwards towards the distant top as he analyzed the structure. Whether Shadow Soji's message even registered to him for a few moments was questionable, but he was quick to clear his throat and listen when the words Persona, Tartarus, and Dark Hour sprung from the Shadow's mouth. Not all of them were new to him, but this was definitely the first time that he had seen the tower itself, and in such a strange location considering all of the tests they'd once performed happened somewhere else. "I wonder why it has come back after so long? Could this, like the mysterious white light, be a sign for me to unlock the hidden potential of the supernatural? If I could only learn it's secrets then perhaps I'd find a key to even greater demonic potential! The fruits of my research could award humanity a better future...how exciting!" Though he wasn't usually one to become overly excited about research like a certain eccentric he'd once known, this was on a whole different scale from the everyday, and he was not known as a master of the divine for no reason. However, that brought him back to the main subject at hand. The figure with glowing golden eyes, who resembled in many ways the possessed or the disguised demons that he had encountered a few times in the past. Though he seemed undoubtedly inhuman, his message made it even clearer that he wasn't one to be convinced to join their cause. He seemed determined to do more harm than good, and as an ally of the Japanese-born Yatagarasu, the vampiric Romanian had always had his sensibilities turned towards protecting people, rather than harming them; even if he did perform some rather questionable rituals in his pursuit of magic. Now, before Aleister resorted to questioning the self-righteous figure, it transformed into a greater form that resembled a demon in many ways, but that lacked an incredible number of their characteristics. That was it then; this was a Shadow, the same creatures that he'd attempted to control over ten years ago. Even if it spoke of the good of humans, he could tell from a glance that it was not even a human itself, for his research of the profane had long ago allowed him to learn of Izanagi; the true one, not this mask-bearing creature of the dark hour. And if it was asking them to aid in destroying humanity, then it was only serving the interests of it's kind, it's message of becoming Gods and lording over the remainder of humanity was questionable at best. Even if it meant it now, it had to know that when the despair began to cloud the people's hearts, that would only call upon Nyx, and in doing so the world would meet it's end anyways. "You shouldn't speak so casually of time. Those ten seconds could be an eternity to some...I should know. As for your New World order, I don't remember allowing a future to exist in which men were slaves to monsters. Magic exists to serve man, and not rule over him." He said finally, pulling his black glove off as he glared at the black coated creature before him, who seemed intent on masking his own delusions by poisoning the minds of those around him to the same ends. Anyone who wanted to abuse the powers of the supernatural were dangerous not only to themselves, but to all of humanity, and it was that sort of reckless action that had forced him to keep his knowledge so secretive for so long. Two had already agreed to his demented scheme, but Crowley believed all too truly that man was an honest race, and a creature that could yet develop their own selves and find an evolution that didn't require them to trample upon everything that was sacred. Killing each other, trampling other's beliefs into the ground, even forcing servitude on others whether they were human or Gods; whatever the method, Crowley had already decided against renouncing his humanity a long time ago. "If you won't give up on such a foolish goal, then I'll simply have to rewrite history with my own hands. Right here and now, I'll ensure you never gain the power you desire."Quote: -->Humans are not as bad as you say they are! This can still be saved! I refuse!

Dan Sekohara 
The white haired hero approached the gates of Tartarus his humongous hammer laid carefully on his shoulder. This place had set a thick deep gash on his heart and if Dan had the strength he would just knock the damn place to the ground with his mighty hammer. With a heave of his shoulder Dan lifted the hammer up off his shoulder and let the head rest on the ground. " I'm coming." He whispered just loud enough for the others to hear him. They knew who he meant, they likely all knew they couldn't stop him from throwing his life down if it meant getting his silver haired best friend back from the abyss. Dan shifted slightly and looked at those around him, an odd look on his face. His heart was throbbing in his ears as he began to speak to his friends. "Lets go up there together and get him back." He was going to say that they could leave, that no one would blame them for staying home and just living their days out quietly, but Dan knew that the rest of them wanted to go to the top just as much as he did.

 Rednal Ak'Thias"I've been up top. It's nothing special." Rednal said wryly, looking up at where they'd fought Nyarlathotep. Where everything had gone right... and so horribly, horribly wrong. "It's just a tower, really. A weird tower, but a tower all the same. I'm a lot more worried about what's going on in there. This... isn't going to be fun." Of course, it was likely that everyone there knew that already. Most likely, a good number of those called in would be falling to the darkness, and the team didn't have Soji's divine light to banish the darkness from the victims' hearts. Sigh. "Naoto-chan, do you know where the others are?" there was a slightly pained tone in his voice... for all the battles he'd fought, and all the things they'd done, he really didn't have much confidence in himself... all he had were friends to rely on and assist in turn. With their nigh-unstoppable leader gone, they were sorely lacking in power, and he really didn't look forward to what was going to happen without Soji there to lead the charge.

  Amelia M. Heartilly and Chie Satonaka
With the thought running through her mind, the moment she heard and saw the face of her dear friend and leader, she felt a sort of fire welling up inside of her, even if it was indeed bittersweet. Chie wasn't going to let this down, and staying in her home wasn't what Soji would do when darkness is going to corrupt some more people into the Black Messiahs. She just won't have it! But seeing his face, even now as she stood before the tower and knowing that he was inside with the others, a stabbing pain was just digging into her. She looked to see the others and saw the Naoto was around as well. But... "Is Yukiko coming?" she asked the Prince Detective but only kept herself quiet for a moment before looking behind her again. Where's Yosuke? No, no, settle down, they'll be coming soon. They will. They won't allow themselves to be pushed around. Something had to be done, even as she watched the dangerous tower looming over them the same way it did that one week ago.
It wasn't long until Amelia also joined in with the others and was met with the ominous tower. She let out a breath before she adjusted herself and soon stepped forward after seeing that the others have arrived too. The most noticeable was a head of cotton candy hair, the newbie Genji Amagai now seeing what it is that he'll be facing. "... Taking the situation seriously as usual." she murmured after the first line that Rednal said before she stood next to Genji and patted at his arm before she looked to the side. "Ready..?" she asked, with a voice noting as if she was checking on him before she looked about the area and saw that Nix was about too, looking uneasy. Well... with violet eyes looking up at the tower, one couldn't help but feel that bit of fear. Though the dark-haired girl started to shift about in place when looked around again, not seeing a patch of blond hair with them. Minori... where is she?

 Rena Redeyan, cheery Junior"Sure" Rena called with a perky grin, nodding along with the silver haired (and tounged) One's words. He seemed like a nice enough guy, and he was offering awnsers to questions. He couldn't be that bad, now could he? She didn't really get all of the complicated stuff about Personas and stuff yet, but the way he spoke said they were going to the 'New world'. How exciting!!!! And the thought of being with someone who would stand beside her as a good brother, she couldn't say no to such a nice request.Quote: -> I will join you Master, and safeguard Mankind's evolution into the New World!

Shadow Soji
[Tartarus - 1st Floor Lobby]  Oh, how he grew weary of all these wannabe heroes; humans who stuck to that tired old ideal that the righteous would overcome all darkness, that humanity no matter how disgusting it had become or how low it had descended was always worthy of another shot at redemption. There were so many turning points in the history of mankind where they had the opportunity to realize the error of their ways before they destroyed themselves utterly, so many times to grasp hold of the opportunity to evolve, to grow stronger, to overcome their weaknesses and become something much, much greater. During the Sengoku Era the country had nearly torn itself asunder, killing so many of their people, and during modern times there had been World War I, World War II...the dropping of the atom bombs should have been all the wake-up call the world needed, and yet humanity still saw fit to press forward with their mission to build larger and more advanced killing tools, never knowing that the most dangerous weapons of all were already theirs for the taking. In the Shadows, in the Devils, the power to undo the world were lingering...only they were always held back from the vast majority of mankind because they were simply not ready, not responsible enough to hold the power without burning their own hands. They were weak, ignorant, bitter at heart, and it was humanity itself which gave rise to the shadows...a new existence, a greater existence. One which was free of the inexplicable hatreds of mankind towards specific groups and places, free from prejudice or segregation. Shadows hated all men equally...and to release the shadow, to give in to that primal urge and control the power, to bring death upon their less evolved selves, this was how humanity could finish the job it was destined to accomplish in ending themselves while securing their future in the forms of the shadow. Or at least, that was the logic that he offered them...and a few of them were wise enough to bite on the hand which had extended the offer to them. To offer themselves readily to his new world order, believing this carrot of logic that he had given them whether he believed it behind those golden eyes or didn't. And yet there were those who did not. Insignificant...pests...the shadow's eyes flashed and a burst of intense flame erupted upon each of the defiant newcomers who spoke their heroic words or denied his offer, collapsing them to the floor where they would land painfully. The others...his lips thinned into a smile as he looked upon them.
"How very boring. I expected more when I entrusted you with this gift. ...Do you honestly see what stands before you, feel the intensity of my power compared with your own and fancy yourselves some manner of heroes? You are nothing more than neophytes nipping at the heels of the future, clinging to works of fiction to defend a world that's slipping into history," the Shadow's reprimand had taken a biting form in both word and the flames of the fire which licked at the bodies of those who rejected him, his eyes flashing again as he took a step down, extending his sword to those who remained and had pledged themselves to him. They had made the only decision...simply stepping into this lair had left them with but a single, divisive choice...to join him or be consumed by the shadows of his revolution. "But to you whose eyes are open, who discard the false truths and the childish fantasies to which those around you hold to their very last breath, I welcome you. You are stepping into a world beyond anything you have known, a life that will consume the unworthy. The world shall be remade in our image," the shadow promised, before shifting the tip of his sword to point at those ragged survivors of his fire that were likely now stumbling back to their feet..."And now comes the hour for your first act, to earn the same power which I now hold within myself...the power of the shadows. Those who reject the very power which I have given them to change this world must be eliminated. They are our enemy. Destroy them now, and walk together with me to the doorstep of humanity's salvation!" His power flared. His expression became darker, his power more and more ominous. He could eliminate every person before him with so little effort...but this was their test, the initiation into darkness. If they could do this for him, then they would be his...entirely. "Step forward and show me your power...all-" he spoke with authority, but his voice was interrupted out of nowhere. The press of the doors to the Tower open, a head of red hair and a black uniform bursting through the center of the gathered crew to stand upon the stairs before him.
"Stop this!" came a voice that was familiar to so many, hoarse from days spent inside of her home waiting for word. Her eyes were rimmed with black circles, but there were no streaks down her cheeks any longer, no tears had been shed. There was a grim determination about the support specialist of the Investigation Team, her beautiful features settled into an expression of hurt and anger. She wasn't crying, but the pain was still written plainly in the depths of her determined eyes. "Stop standing there saying those words while wearing Senpai's face! Senpai isn't like that! He fought against the shadows, to protect every one of us! He gave...he gave everything, and he never asked for anything in return from any of us! So don't you pretend like you know anything about him! Or I swear...I will make you sorry!" her words betrayed a seriousness behind her claims that did not match her abilities. She lacked combat skills...she had never been much of a fighter. But her anger overwhelmed her, her indignant anger growing so heavy inside of her chest that whatever happened to her, whether she fell or died or simply exhausted and fell where she stood, she would move heaven and earth to hold to her promise! To let anybody, especially this thing betray the memory of the greatest man that she had known...her boyfriend...her Senpai...she would do anything to stop that! It couldn't be allowed! "And all of you, don't just be drawn in because of what this monster tells you! He isn't the one who gave you this power! He isn't a hero, and he doesn't have any answers! He's just...using you! Pitting you against one another for his own amusement...the one who gave you the power that you have now...he's...he's..." she choked a bit there, holding back her tears...there was an intensity about her, a simmering anger, a burning determination. Her amber eyes smoldered with hatred for the creature that lied and used the name of her Senpai. "...He's the real Soji Seta! This monster's nothing more than a shadow!" Her finger pointed at the black-coated figure at the top of the stairs, whose even expression remained somewhat casual as the accusations and threats flew. This small girl...had such a large mouth. Oh, the memories that he carried of her inside of him, the things that she had said and done together with his light side, he knew it must be killing her to stand there before him now.
And he loved it. His lips curled into a satisfied smirk, one of sheer amusement as she thrust her finger at him and called him a monster. Did she not realize?
"You're right, my dear Risette. I am a monster," the shadow smirked devilishly, golden eyes flashing, "A monster born from your Senpai. And do you want to know what he thinks of you?" His smirk grew, pearly white teeth showing as Rise covered her ears, teeth grinding as she fought against herself. "No! You're just going to lie to me...I don't want to hear it!" the former idol screamed, her voice piercing the room in a shrill denial, but no matter how hard she denied it the words still came from the creature that wore her boyfriend's face. It smiled as it spoke venomous words to her; carving away all the warm feelings that accompanied that smile, that silver hair that framed it, breaking her down bit-by-bit. "You do know that when you first came onto him, all he could think about was how incredible it was to be liked by an idol, right? Not by the girl named Rise Kujikawa. All he could think about was Risette. He lied to you. He told you he wasn't interested in that part of you at all, didn't he?" the shadow smiled pleasantly, spinning its weapon onto a resting place at its back, "And all those times he told you he loved you? Did you think he meant only you? I told you before, didn't I? You're hardly the only one...oh, there's Yukiko, who could forget about her? But did you know that there's a place in his heart for Yumi Ozawa? For that strange girl with the ice? Do you remember all the girls who stayed with him in his house? I bet you didn't even know that he had thoughts about Chie, did you? How he loves girls who are active, ones who can fight? He respects them...unlike you." His lips curled...her eyes watered and her fingers tangled into her orange hair, arms shaking...he savored her despair. "You don't...that's not true! I know that Senpai isn't like that! He doesn't think that! You're LYING!"
"You only wish..." his response was positively delighted, each word sharp, dripping with venom, and he savored every little taste...feeling the heavy weight upon her chest sink in deeper. But this was only the beginning.
"You want to know more? You said you were going to make me sorry, didn't you? Well then...let me invite you inside," he offered with a wide smirk, nodding to Kenta at his side in a silent signal, "I'll tell you the truth about your beloved Senpai. The whole truth. All you have to do is...follow me." Turning his back on the girl, he ignored her cry to wait and took a few steps towards the front gate and the darkness...and though her feet carried her after him, she could not quite catch up to the image of her lost love...instead disappearing with him into the darkness. Though he was gone, however, his voice remained. The command was simple, for all who remained behind and beholden to his will.
"Do as I have asked and you all shall join me at the summit for our glorious revolution. ...Destroy all who have refused my gifts. And Kenta...when Seta's friend's arrive, I expect you to give them some...second thoughts about moving forward. I'm counting on you..." Quote: Shadow Soji Ascends!
Rise has rushed past the Investigation Team and chased Shadow Soji into the Tower of Demise! Kenta now stands in the way of the Investigation Team's path to follow her and stop her before she gets herself killed! Can they reach Rise in time?! Some must stay behind to deal with Kenta, but the rest must move on! Who will stay behind and deal with him?
...
Meanwhile, for all of the New Generation of Persona-Users who have joined the Messiahs, the mission is much more simple...eliminate those who have refused Shadow Soji's offer! Fight them...and ensure that there are none who escape to bring goodness back into this world!

 Teddie! RAWR!!!!And as the hatted one would start to block off their path, a small little Glacier of Ice would burst up in his way, meaning he had to move fast, or get hit with the spell.
"Rawr!!! I'll Hold this guy off! You guys Go After Rise-chan, You hear?" the voice of Teddie called out, as he held his claw up high. That dark one wasn't sensei, that was something he could tell even without his nose. He wasn't always the most helpful, and he couldn't save Sensei in his hour of need like he had him. But, he wasn't going to let the others get held back, and have Rise-chan fall before he came back! He was going to fight, RAWR!!!
And, giving a thumbs up to the rest of the crew, Leon nodded silently, as if telling them to Go on. He planned on backing his buddy up, to make sure nothing happened to him.
"Go."

 𝔑𝔦𝔵 𝔖𝔞𝔩𝔩𝔢𝔫 ▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂ Seeing Faust and Kusuri with her helped settle Nix's nerves. She knew that with them around she would be okay. Faust, Kusuri, Amelia, Leon, and even the other members she didn't know yet were there for the same reason. They were going to help those who were lured here by the shadow and maybe even fight the Messiahs as well.. Well that wasn't a choice when suddenly a woman rushed by to charge into the tower. It was clear that she was close to Soji Seta, the leader of Investigation Team. So the conversation between the two was painful to listen too. That dark man took advantage of the situation but it was a tad frustrating to see her rush in without a second thought. The new member didn't even consider doing that herself! It seemed like things would only get worse for Nix when a familiar face was there waiting. He was at the flood plains when Kazuma attacked her and joined their side. As much as she wanted to ask if her brother was there there was no time. He was beneath her notice since two people stepped up to hold him off. ".. Here goes nothing.." She said before looking at Faust and Kusuri, nodding to them to show that she was going to be okay now. She made her choice and was going to rush into that dark tower to save Rise and possibly convince her brother to turn his back on the Shadow of their leader.. So with some new found confidence Nix rushed forward with the others to head into that darkness.. Quote: Nix headed into the Tower! ▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂ Ѳn that day, my ℋeart crumbled in sιℓєиcє

Dan Sekohara
It was go time. The group burst in through the gates to hell ready to climb this damn tower to the top just to find their leader but it seemed from the beginning things went very... very wrong. In a matter of seconds Rise had disappeared. She had forged ahead with steel and determination, but Dan and the rest of the team knew she was not someone accustomed to fighting and to let her go up there was Shadow Soji's plan from the beginning that much Dan was sure of. As he entered the lobby with his heroic hammer on his back and a small red glow coming from his pocket Dan was ready for the showdown but it seemed they had a bigger problem. While the team had assembled outside the tower it seemed that the shadow had been busy indoctrinating the prospective pupils. The hero's amber eyes scanned the room. There had to be at least ten... maybe more in the lobby but which ones had taken the shadow's offer, which of them were beyond his capabilities right now. He was truly a hero and few could argue that he was weak anymore but even he didn't have the time to stay here and convince them they had made the wrong choice, he had to get up the tower, he had to save Rise just like Soji would.
Just as the white haired hero began to turn reluctantly away from the group and towards the stairs he noticed someone; out of the corner of his eye he caught sight of her. The beautiful girl who had been awake that night during the dark hour... it almost didn't surprise Dan, he should have seen it coming but the sight of her made his heart drop deep into his stomach. Why was she mixed up in this? He asked angrily towards no one but his own mind. Without another thought Dan ran to her moving through the crowd of new persona users with speed and power and quickly grabbed Nekama's hand in his own. Suddenly a jolt of pink seemed to hit his cheeks before quickly being sweeped away by the urgency of the situation. "Come with me. I'll protect you, just stay by my side and we will make it through this alright." With that Dan didn't giver her much choice; his hand holding hers firmly yet carefully the white haired hero dashed back towards the stairs. "Do it for him Ted, I know you can. We'll be back to help as soon as we can." He said as he began to climb the stairs his grip on Nekama's hand loosening as they got further and further from the main floor where the melee was likely about to start.

Already the misunderstood blonde came into the tower along with the others, feeling rejuvenated, and looking much more fit to fight. IT didn’t take long for him to get his head back into the game, thinking he would have to give it his all to fight off this Shadow Soji. It was because of him that the I.team’s moral depleted a bit, and now it was time for some good old fashion pay back. Not only that, but the new persona users were here as well, Kanji would hope that they would make the right choice, but if not then they would have to get out of this man way or else things were going to go straight to hell in a heartbeat. He walked up next Naoto, as more people were joining the messiahs, things were looking like they weren’t going to be in their odds. Kanji would shrug that off for now, as they were always up against impossible odds, and they made the impossible possible…with their leader Soji. The thought got him down, but Kanji was not going to let show, not now. Now he was going to have to be strong, just like everyone else, he was going to march down and begin the battle with Shadow Soji, and by all means he was going to make. Him. Pay. Already he could spot that pretender, that thing that think that he was a God. He couldn’t hold it, he tried, but it was getting impossible; the rage…the hate he had for this guy. It was because of him that things were going to hell, it was because of him that…his senpai…he was going to pay! Already Rise ran past him to catch up with her, and he was not going to let him get away either; not if him and his school desk weapon had anything to say about it. “GET BACK HERE YOU b*****d!” Kanji exploded! The unforgivable sin that Shadow Soji had preform would not go unpunished, and Kanji was going to take out all the rage he had for him at this very moment. Like Rise he too ran without any signs of stopping, he was going to fight this in order to save the world, in order to avenge Soji. And if there was anyone trying to stop him, then let whatever higher being have mercy on them as they went up against this raging bull.
