Since this fanfic is very poorly written, it will be removed soon enough as that I have no intentions on concluding it. Instead, I will be starting a Growlanser fanfic geared towards denuclearization and also world peace.




(Rumors spoke of a cult going around telling people that the apocalypse is near. These cult members usually go around in pairs but they have also been spotted as a lone annoyance or in a group of three individuals. Rumors also say that these cult members are actually trying to recruit more members and expand their influences as that most people are either not interested or annoyed. The cult members would first speak of some doomsday conspiracy or some non-existent apocalypse, then they will go off and claim that their God will provide support and protection if you show faith to it. However, funny thing is that these cult members know little to nothing about their own God they worship. Legend has it that this God is actually a group of people, both men and women rather than a single individual. This group of people who created the world, also provides continuous maintainance to it are very angry at the actions of the cult members. Legend says that the God will punish those who spread lies for their own political gain and the punishment is always severe. And thus, the story now begins...)

(Somewhere in a park where people relaxes while bathing in the sunlight and enjoying a nice windy breeze in the hot summer times. The park is filled with people which is actually somewhat hot rather than windy.)

Youth A: Recently, I keep on hearing these rumors and legends.

Youth B: Rumors of a bear-like creature that devours humans? It weighs over 200 pounds with golden scales or so I heard.

Youth A: No, I am talking about the Legend.. There are these annoying cult members who have been going around on and on about some sort of doomsday conspiracy that nobody believes. Legend spoke of the Gods who are angry and punishes the cult members for their foolish actions.

Youth B: Oh! That... Legends aren't real. Gods do not exist, not sure why there are so many cult members these days..

*hearing the conversation, an old man came over to speak*

Senior A: Recently, a weird cult member dressed up as a grim reaper minus the scythe had appeared on my doorstep. He spoke of a legendary creature that seeks to destroy the world and that they are recruiting more members to join their faith, so that it would be strong enough to summong their Gods for aid. I was totally amazed as to how they came up with a story like, yet the teller don't feel the slightest bit of humor. I couldn't hold up and broke out into laughters. Then, I realized that standing in front of me is a cult member dressed up as the grim reaper, telling a story of Gods and demons, laughing at them is actually a bad idea as that they might use me as a sacrifice to their Gods. I quickly demanded them to leave in futile attempt to avoid getting reaped.

Youth A: Very funny old man..

Youth B: This never happened to me. I guess I am lucky.

----

(Minato Arisato, the silent protagonist who sacrificed himself to save the world from the apathy syndrome and the God Nyx Avatar has recently been revived thanks to the help of Elizabeth from the Velvet Room. However, his powers haven't recovered yet.. After all, his body got cremated when his death certificate as issued by the ones who determined his death to be permanent. And thus, Minato with the help of Philemon had killed a powerful individual and used his body as a container to return to Nirvana, the world where we all live in.

Philemon suggests that his powers will only return if he fights more shadows, the manifestation of malice in the world. People who failed to surpress their emotions will grant the existence of shadows and these people who gave birth to shadows will fall into an unexplainable state of apathy syndrome in which they no longer is part of the world as if their souls were devoured by the Gods. Philemon states that by defeating the shadows, ones who fell into a state of the apathy syndrome will automatically heal, not mentioning that Minato will also regain a part of his powers back.)


(It is an 11:00pm.. Minato is getting his equipment ready to do anti-shadow activities. He will be meeting up with his new comrades with similar abilities to prevent humanity from collapsing to a state of the apathy syndrome, while saving those who already fell victim to it. The Midnight Hour no longer exists but shadows still lurk in places where humans are least spotted. As for individuals who wander into shadow-infested areas, they usually end up on the national missing list. Were they transform into mutated shadows or were they devoured by the shadows, nobody knows..)

*in the living room of some dorm*

(Currently, the dorm is empty as that the ones with persona abilities are out doing shadow hunting, while the ones who don't are currently enjoying their summer vacation.)

*hears the doorbell*

(Minato answers the door..)

(Outside stands a couple dressed in an outfit that bears similarity as grim reapers. it appears that they are from some doomsday cult and are handing out brochures that speak of their wonderful God and their faith.)

Male Cult Member: Good evening, sir.

Minato: Dude, its 11:00pm! Why are you two dressed up as grim reapers in the middle of the night? That's so creepy...

Female Cult Member: Sorry for bothering you but we have some important announcements to inform you. There has been reports of a strange bear-like creature that has been going around devouring people. We believe it is the reincarnation of the devil who fought against our God during the ancient times.

Female Cult Member: The reports say that it has a cylinder-shaped body with an insect-like head with golden scales all over its body. It is about the size of 2 humans in length and weighs over 200 pounds. I think the Mexicans call it the Chupacabra.

Male Cult Member: That's not right! This is called the Capybara, it has nothing to do with the strange creature spotted in Mexico. This bear-like creature is terrorizing our town, it devours humans in order to increase its size and also to change its golden scales to a orange-colored fur that glows at night.

Minato: Wait.. Wait a second.. The two of you rang my doorbell at this late just to talk about some teddy bear creature with a strange appearance? You guys must be joking..

Female Cult Member: No, we are not. We wanted to tell you of an approaching apocalypse and that the only way for us to save you is for you to join our non-profit religious organization and have faith in our God.

Minato: God? Awhile ago, it was some strange creature and now, we are talking about Gods and the apocalypse. And the fact that the two of you rang my doorbell in the middle of the night dressed up as grim reapers definitely gave me a chill down my spine because there are two nutcases standing in front of me. Are you guys hiding your scythes behind your back by any chances???

Male Cult Member: What..? We came to warn you of a strange creature that lurks and terrorizes our town which is also yours. We also came to ask you to join our faith and so that we can protect you. We are the heroes, the good guys. Don't insult us and our God!

Minato: God? So...may I ask.. What is the name of your God and how does your God look like? Any descriptions??

Female Cult Member: Nyarlathotep!

Male Cult Member: Are you sure? I am good friends with the Pope and the Pope says that the true name of our God is Erebus, he is the manifestation of goodwill and kindness. Once the seal breaks, Erebus will come save the world from destruction committed by the Capybara, rebirth of the devil.

Minato: *shocked* Erebus? Did you just say Erebus??

Female Cult Member: Yes, he just said Erebus. Is there a problem?

(Minato recalls the words of Philemon.. "You have been revived as that your grand seal has been broken, releasing your soul as that it is no longer strong enough to contain the greatest threat to humanity, Erebus...the manifestation of malice from the world; Erebus is also worshipped by a number of cults as God as that its powers are infinite due to the unlimited supply of malice in the world. No matter how many times you defeat Erebus, as long as malice exists in the world, it will regenerate itself. It is a long and vicious cycle. However, if you manage to eliminate all the cult members and prevent the creation of new cults that worship Erebus, this may be the last time you have to defeat and seal away Erebus.")

Minato: !?

Minato: I am very busy right now. Would the two of you kindly leave? I have heard enough of this nonsense and would like to go to sleep... There is no such thing as God and neither is there a huge creature with that description. Go spread your lies elsewhere, you are not welcomed here!!

Cult Couple: We are unhappy that we once again fail to recruit a member. You're the 100th one we tried. Why aren't anybody believing the coming of the apocalypse!? Our God Erebus will save them as long as they join us and have faith in our non-profit religious organization. Is this too much to ask? By the way, sorry for bothering you once again. We shall leave...

*Minato closes the door.*

(Minato quickly phones Elizabeth asking to arrange a meeting with Philemon to discuss about the evil cults, the lies they spread and also the return of Erebus. Minato also called his new comrades to discuss of methods to fight shadows which slows down the process of Erebus' revival.)

(Somewhere in another city, strange things occur... It appears that the doomsday cult is sponsored by a particular government body. Unfortunately, even rumors don't know of the origin of the cult except that it receives monthly cheques from some embassy and that they are spreading lies about some creature going to terrorize towns, seeking to recruit more members into their faith. The cult currently have quite a number of members already due to the fact that the society is slowly deteriorating to a state in which most people are rather stupid and would easily believe lies as that the apocalypse will come very soon and that they must seek the aid of the almighty God known as Erebus. However, that is just the smaller objectives of the doomstay cult as that rumors say they are doing it for political gains in exchange for the fundings.)

(In the streets of a small town where a military base is located.. A fuss is occurring..)

Elderly Man: Why are you doing this?

Young Girl: Please, stop!! We don't want to be a part of some cult and neither do we want to get hurt. You guys are soldiers, aren't you here to protect us from threats and dangers? Why are you helping the cult spreading lies!? How can you do such a thing!?

Soldier A: No worries. All you got to do is sign this application to become a new member of the Red Dragon Empire. Our war God will no doubt protect you from all threats and injustices. Erebus will even fight that monstrosity going around preying on humans in other towns..

Soldier B: Yes, Erebus will easily kill the Capybara. Or was it Chucapabra?

Soldier A: It does not matter what's it called. The point is that the Red Dragon Empire is here to protect people, young and old, male or female, wealthy and the poor from all threats and dangers. All you got to do is sign the application and join our faith. We will protect you!!

Young Man: Why is there a fuss here!? Not you soldiers again!!!

Soldier B: What's with that attitude of yours? You want to get run over by our tanks again?

Young Girl: You can't do this. You will risk court martial if you run a tank over unarmed civilians!!

Soldier C: Was that a joke? Obviously, the technician will take the blame for poor maintenance and causing a tragic accident like that. We will be more than happy to hang that technician that have been causing us stress lately.

Soldier A & Soldier B: *broke out into laughters*

Elderly Man: Does justice not exist in this world? How can these guys be allowed to do whatever they like? Somebody come save us..

(Meanwhile, a mysterious lady had arrived to the scene but gazes at a distant. She seems very angry at the soldiers but at the same time, it also seems that she cannot risk being seen in a clash with soldiers in broad daylight.)

???: (Although I have obtained a persona thanks to Philemon a few months ago, what would happen if I were to use it publicly in the eyes of so many soldiers and civilians? Will they consider me a demon as that my summons don't look very nice?)

*while the lady ponders in thought, a small group of people arrive at the scene to fight out*

Unknown Male A: Not these damn soldiers again..

Unknown Male B: Perhaps, we should teach them a lesson.

Unknown Female A: Why don't we go crush the Red Dragon Empire instead?

Unknown Male A: The others have already set off a bio-weapon near one of their temples that seems to be worshipping a status similar to that of a serpent-like creature. Let's hope the casualties this time will be lower than the last..

Unknown Female A: The scientist division has been working on an antidote, it will be discreetly distributed a week from now to all the infected individuals who come close contact to the bio-weapon. Let's hope they stay alive until then..

*the civilians and the soldiers seem to be having a rather serious conversation meters away from the mysterious group of individuals*

Young Girl: *sees mysterious indiividuals closeby* Please, help us from the dangers of the soldiers. They are from some doomsday cult and are forcing us to sign some application to join their faith; otherwise, they will run tanks over us.

Unknown Male A: *walks toward the young girl and the elderly man* We will save the introductions for later. I will take care of these soldiers if the three of you promise to keep quiet about it. No matter what happens at this moment, you must not tell anybody about it and also, please close your eyes.

Soldiers: Who the hell are you? What are you guys up to? What are you planning? Don't you know that we are loyalists of the Red Dragon Empire? If you mess with us, our Empire under the leadership of our almighty God, Lord Erebus will punish you. Think about it again, won't you?

Unknown Female A: *appears behind the soldiers*

Unknown Female A: *in a silent tone of voice* We have killed more people than you guys can imagine. Killing another 3 soldiers won't mean much to us. More over, you guys will just disappear without a trace and end up on the national missing list.

Unknown Female A: *summons demonic creature* Go on.. Devour the soldiers!!

(In less than 30 seconds, all three soldiers were devoured by a total of 6 demons. All traces of existence can no longer be found.)

Unknown Male B: Don't worry about it guys.. We hope hearing these unpleasant noises of strangeness won't give you nightmares but we have taken care of the soldiers and they won't bother you anymore. Go live your peaceful everyday life.

Group of civilians: Thanks a lot! We swear our lives we will keep quiet of what happened today. We swear..

Unknown Individuals: Don't worry 'bout it. We are all devil summoners and our demons only prey on the evil which means all the members of the Red Dragon Empire. Hopefully, they will be strong enough to take on Erebus after doing so..

*civilians leave scene and get back to their own daily peaceful lives*

Unknown Male A: We are finished here. Let's go and see how the plans resulted. Perhaps, we should buy a paper on our way back. Have the others set the temple ablaze or are the government going to seal off the temple area as a terrorist conspiracy involving biological weapons? *laughs*

*small group of devil summoners leave area*

???: (How could this be? I was just going to go save the civilians and risk using my persona and those guys just summoned demons and... I think I am going to have nightmares. My persona would never devour the soldiers, it might kill them though..)

*mysterious lady disappears after losing her appetite*

(It seems that aside from Minato and his new comrades who can use persona and are up against Erebus, working for Philemon aren't the only ones involved. There are other people who are capable of using the persona ability. Aside from that, it also appears that a group of terrorists are doing devil summoning rituals of some unexplainable variety. A government body seems to be involved and are sponsoring the doomsday cult which also consist of members from all layers of a society including foreign soldiers. How will the story turn out...?)

(Its been a few days since the incident in which a group of unknown devil summoners had saved some civilians from soldiers who belong to the Red Dragon Empire, a doomsday cult that worships Erebus, the manifestation of malice that flows throughout the entire world. The mysterious lady with the persona ability that was granted to her by Philemon is once again angered at the sight of soldiers who once were thought of as symbols of justice to be terrorizing towns, bullying unarmed civilians to join their Red Dragon Kingdom, even if it comes down to means of pressure and force, while she was taking a stroll in her very own hometown.)

???: (I must do something about it this time. The devil summoners are probably long gone after thinking that they have already care of the problems here. These soldiers are such jerks to be bullying the weak, I must give them a proper lesson. However, just my persona alone might not be strong enough. On a second thought, I can't just leave these weak civilians alone when they are getting harassed and beaten up by soldiers who are supposed to be protecting us from foreign threats. What's with them!?)

*the mysterious lady approaches the local fuss involving a couple of soldiers who seem to be going on and on about joining their cult and worshipping Erebus*

???: What is going on here??

Soldiers: Who the hell are you?

???: That's is not important. Leave these poor people alone.. Aren't you soldiers a symbol of justice? Didn't you guys came here to protect us? What the hell are you doing? We feel more threatened at the sight of your presence as opposed to what its supposed to be..

Soldiers: Justice? You got to be kidding me.. Since when did you get the idea that we came to protect you weaklings? We are here because our superiors say so and that we also get paid for doing it. It has absolutely nothing to do with justice. In fact, our superiors say that we can do whatever we like as long as no casualties are involved. This is the will of our government!

*a group of mysterious individuals in strange outfits appeared*

Soldiers: Aren't those guys the rumored terrorist group that have going around killing our fellow members of the Red Dragon Empire? These guys are dangerous..

???: The devil summoners are back.. So many of them..

*one of the devil summoners approach the fuss*

Kyo: I am Kyo of the Zero Faction. We came to take care of some unfinished businesses that my fellow comrades forgot the other day.

Soldiers: Damn these terrorists!! Go get your tanks and machine guns, we are going to rampage through town. Its good opportunity to kill some of them while laying the blame on them for the consequences..

*another devil summoner approached the soldiers*

Devil Summoner A: There is no need for me to introduce myself when you are going to die as soon as you see the demons I am about to summon.

*one of the soldiers pulled out a handgun and as soon as he did, the female devil summoner slashed his arm off*

Devil Summoner B: How does it feel to deal with people more superior to you as opposed to your daily bullying of weak civilians? Enjoying it??

*soldiers were shocked in fear*

Devil Summoner C: Its time to finish off the business. We do not have time to spare. There are better things to do.

*summons a horde of demons and they preyed on the soldiers*

Civilians: So, these guys from Zero Faction are the rumored terrorists who have been fighting the Red Dragon Empire and slaughtering their fellow men? Didn't know they were actually devil summoners..

???: My name is...

*the mysterious lady was suddenly interrupted*

Kyo: My apologies, we do not have time for chit-chat and introductions. We will save it later when we meet.. We still have other unfinished tasks our leader has assigned.

???: Unfinished tasks?

Kyo: The real reason why I am here today is to inform you of bad news in which our leader would like you to know. You are currently being targetted by members of the doomsday cult, the Red Dragon Empire. Although, we have managed to kill off some of the troublesome people who came your way but it seems we may not always have the time to do so. Since you have a persona, I assume you can defend yourself? If not.. You better run and find somewhere safe to hide. Members of the doomsday cult, the Red Dragon Empire has increased in numbers and they are preying among the weak, as well as anybody they see as a threat. This generally implies that all people with special abilities, such as your persona are targetted. You must be extra cautious.. These Red Dragon Empire members are not much different than demons themselves. One careless move may cost you your life, we are not trying to scare you..

???: I understand my situation. Thanks.. Who is the leader of your Zero Faction?

Kyo: He is the reincarnation of one of the main creators of the world. However, his powers haven't fully recovered and thus, we devil summoners have to do some dirty work. We have already killed quite a number of cult members along as involving innocent civilians in the crossfire. It cannot be helped but we are trying our best to maintain the casualties at minimum. Our leader had told us to do whatever necessary and left judgement to us fellow devil summoners. Generally, we can choose what method to carry out our tasks as long as we don't break the general principles and rules he enforced. Everything else is our choice.

Devil Summoner C Kyo-senpai, you have already said what is necessary. It is time to leave. We should need to carry out some important tasks. I wonder if the bio-weapon the others have used in this other place was successful or not?

*group of devil summoners along with Kyo leaves to a nearby bar which is owned and run by fellow members of the Zero Faction to discuss important matters*

Devil Summoner B: It is probably a success.. Quite a number of people seems to have been infected by it. However, it seems that the number of infected individuals is a lot lower than our expectations. Perhaps, the information we obtained are lies and that the real numbers are covered-up.

Devil Summoner D: Our attack formation was a success, no matter how you look at it. It went very well.. However, it did involved innocent civilians and that we are also looking into an antidote to the bio-weapon. How will we distribute it discreetly? Its not like we can go and pass it out to random people who aren't members of the Red Dragon Empire?

Kyo: We will discuss that later.. The science division can deal it. Our objectives are to maintain peace and order here, kill the cult members who are involved with the military, as well as others who are spreading lies and recruiting new members under a web of deception. This means our task has nothing to do with developing an antidote or distributing it..

(While they discuss this, the mysterious lady escorted the civilians back home who witnessed a nightmare of demons killing soldiers they most dislike. It seems that civilians were somewhat traumatized at the sight of strange-looking creatures preying on human soldiers, even though they were their most hated enemies. Somehow, the mysterious lady managed to calm them down and succeeded in escorting them back to safety, so that they can enjoy their peaceful ordinary everyday life.)

???: (Perhaps, its time I visit Minato and his group. Maybe, we should discuss how the Zero Faction might be a good alliance against our common enemy, the Red Dragon Empire. After all, these doomsday cult members are worshipping Erebus, the enemy and greatest threat to humanity, the manifestation of malice. What angers me most is that the symbols of justice, soldiers who were meant to protect civilians started forcing them to join their doomsday cult at gunpoint. Are they even humans? They must be eliminated but still... How can those devil summoners actually summon demons which devour them? I feel a little sick to my stomach.. Of course, these terrible soldiers will disappear without a trace leaving no bloodstains or any sort of evidence while that the civilians will enjoy peaceful days onwards but still.. I cannot do such a thing. How can the leader of the Zero Faction let his followers do whatever they like? Isn't he the reincarnation of one of the Gods? How can the Gods allow such a thing? They are not as good as fairytales say..)

???: (I wonder if the trains are still in-service. I better visit the Velvet Room sometimes soon. Things are a lot more chaotic than it seems. So many things involving the doomsday cult are happening everyday, even though ordinary people seems to be unaware of it..)

(And so.. The mysterious lady will be regrouping with Minato and his new comrades. They seem to be focused on the concept of defeating Erebus by means of utilizing their persona abilities as opposed to what the Zero Faction plans on doing. The Zero Faction, however seeks to crush the doomsday cult, the Red Dragon Empire by killing every single member, as well as remove individuals who work for the cult. They are the rumored terrorist organization but only problem is that it is run by the Creators of the world, the Creators of humanity and the world. And thus, about 40% of the groups have appeared.. How will the story turn out? Who are the remaining groups that have yet to appeared? Who is the mysterious lady? Who are the mysterious devil summoners? What sort of soldiers are the ones working for the Red Dragon Empire? It will all be revealed as the story progresses...)

(Meanwhile, an argument of ideals broke out at the science division of the Zero Faction. It seems that the Buddha and the Gods are not in agreement with the humans, even though they all belong to the same Zero Faction that seeks to annihilate the doomsday cult, the Red Dragon Empire, as well as their worshipped God, Erebus who is actually the manifestation of malice which flows throughout the world and is gathered into one place, one entity.)

Scientist A: It appears the antidote for the biological weapon we made have yet to be completed. I wonder how many innocent civilians were involved in our latest explosive-tactic attacks.

Scientist B: It cannot be helped.. They were in the way but we should hurry up making the antidote.

*Buddha appears in the laboratory*

Buddha: Why are you people wasting time making the antidote? Not a single innocent soul was involved in the biological attack. Those who were involved were caused by the effect of Karma. If they don't deserve to be infected by the bio-attack, they won't even appear near it in the first place.

Scientist A: But master says..

Buddha: He is just too kind and perhaps, too lazy to have not read what the ancient scriptures say. The ancient scriptures talked quite a lot on the issue of karma and that these people who suffered the side-effects of the biological weapon attack totally deserved it. There is absolutely no need to create an antidote to save them as that they do not deserve to be saved in the first place.

Scientist B: It doesn't matter. We have time on our hands, we will just make the antidote anyways..

(Elsewhere.. Kyo and his devil summoner comrades decided to have a meal at a nearby fastfood restaurant which seems to be quite popular.)

Devil Summoner A: I love the taste of the burgers at WcRonald's. Let's go grab a bite!

Kyo: Really? So what do you plan on getting Sigma?

Sigma: I will grab the Big Apple Burger.

Devil Summoner B: In that case, I eat some fries and a cola.

Kyo: Sure, I will grab the most famous juicy and tender Crispy WcChicken Burger.

(10 minutes later at the food court..)

Kyo: Is this the most famous burger or did we just enter the wrong shop? It is not tender and juicy at all. The chicken filet is totally dry. Did they place it in the oven a little too long?

Devil Summoner B: Is that a joke? I am feeling a sickening to my stomach. This cola tastes and smells like soap. I am sure the cola I drank last time wasn't like this..

Sigma: *takes a bite at the Big Apple Burger* The beef steak is a little dry but it tastes alright. Perhaps, this is their new idea of transforming their delicious reciple to fat-free products. Or....?

*Kyo realizes something wasn't right and gazes across the table*

Kyo: I think we did enter the wrong shop..

Sigma: What do you mean??

Devil Summoner B: Take a look at that sign!

Sigma: Oh shit! It reads "Join the Red Dragon Empire and put faith in Lord Erebus for salvation."

Kyo: Looks like we did enter the wrong shop, after all..

Devil Summoner B: That's too bad.. I have always been quite a fan of the WcRonald's food products. Can't believe their franchise had sold their souls to Erebus.. Such a pity...

Kyo: Let's grab some antacid on our way back..

Sigma: I don't think we can do missions after eatting these rotten foods. I am getting a heartburn..

(2 remaining devil summoners who went off to browse the electronics at Akihabara decided to drop by at WcRonald's to see if Sigma and the others are around..)

Devil Summoner C: Hey guys!

Devil Summoner D: Why are you guys making such faces? Leaving already?? Your food looks delicious..

Sigma: Take a look at the sign over there and leave with us.. We are going to pharmacy next.

Kyo: I can't believe I just took a bite of it.

Devil Summoner B: The least to say, you guys didn't drink the soap-taste cola like I just did. I am sure the two of you will be fine in no time but for me, I have a bad feeling, even though it doesn't seem to affect me at all. However, I won't be eatting at another meal at WcRonald's anytime soon... Lost my appetite..

Devil Summoner C: I thought so.. There is statue in the parking lot which resembles the Erebus but I thought it was most likely some sort of decoration. Always ignored it..

Devil Summoner D: In that case, let's leave.. There is nothing we can do about it. What's swallowed remains swallowed. Let's go to the pharmacy. Or perhaps, we should take a train back to the science division for some solutions?

*group of devil summoners leave Sigma's favorite fastfood shop WcRonald's*

(The mysterious lady after leaving the train station, she decided to take a stroll downtown before regrouping with Minato and the rest of the comrades. It appears that she enjoys shopping and wandering the streets for interesting sights.)

*sees a fashion store*

???: (Wow!! That purse looks nice.. Maybe, I should go take a look.)

(While the mysterious lady browse stores after stores trying to look for a cute purse to wear, things seem to be rather chaotic in other parts of town where the Red Dragon Empire continue to do unimaginable things..)

Cult Member: Come to join us for a world of harmony! Lord Erebus shall bring salvation to these lands if you have faith in him..

Otaku A: Excuse me...sir?

Cult Member: Yes?

Otaku A: Is Erebus a guy?

Cult Member: No, he is the one. He is God!

Otaku A: So, God is male?

Cult Member: No, I didn't say that.

Otaku B: But you just..

Cult Member: Silence! How dare you insult our God!? Blasphemy!! You even dare call him a guy. He is a superior being above all else, especially you bunch of rotton losers!!

Devil Summoner E: Did you just called me a rotton loser? So, your God is a dictator? Anybody who do not worship or support the view of your God are rotton losers, am I right?

Cult Leader: Blasphemy!! How dare you say that!? You people will be sent to Hell and burn in the flames of Inferno!!

Otaku A: How mean.. I am leaving...

Otaku B: I am scared.. Help!!

Devil Summoner E: Does Erebus even have the power to send people to Hell? Our organization's leaders are the creators of this world of you garbage cult members.. It really makes no sense. Either you guys are ignorant or you guys have no clue what you are saying.. Red Dragon Empire is nothing more but another doomsday cult, useless trash.. I am leaving too.

Cult Leader: Say that again?

*the crowd disperses*

(In another street of another town in Nakano.. The Red Dragon Empire is there spreading lies once again. It appears that they are all over the places, in every nation and every street.)

Cult Leader: We have the power of the internet! Our Red Dragon Empire has decided to spend multi-billion dollars into shaping the net. Please check these websites out for the Erebus Vision!

Cult Member A: Stay tuned for the Erebus Vision!!

Cult Member B: Long Live the Red Dragon Empire!! All Hail Lord Erebus!!!

Otaku Crowd: What's up with those weirdos! Dressed up as soul reapers, they are wandering the streets in broad daylight going on and on about some doomsday cult and this Beary Vision? What was it called again??

Otaku B: I think they just said something like the Airbus Vision?

Otaku A: Is that some sort of new travel agency?

Otaku C: But.. What does a travel agency have anything to do with some doomsday cult? Where are they promoting tourism for? The Airbus Paradise? Where the hell is that!?

Passer-by: Some sort of doomsday cult was spreading these strange-looking leaflets about some capybara monster terrorizing town in Akihabara the other day. I have no clue what they are up to.. Whatever they are doing, it is obviously very suspicious..

Passer-by: Multi-billion dollar project? Airbus Vision? Obviously.. This doesn't sound right at all..

*upon hearing the loud conversations on the streets where crowds of people gather, cult members are dispatched to the locations*

Cult Member A: I believe you heard it wrong.. Its the Erebus Vision, not the Airbus Vision. We are not some travel agency and neither are we promoting tourism either. We would like to declare to the world that the Red Dragon Empire will bring salvation to humanity by protecting it from the threats mankind will face. An inevitable ordeal that no man can fight against but our most respected Lord Erebus, the God we worship. You guys love animes and mangas right? Just think of us as superheroes, okay? We will look out for you..

Cult Member B: Yes, we are saviours.. Lord Erebus is most kind and will no doubt protect all of you from the upcoming apocalypse. Believe in us! Trust us! We shall bring salvation and a new world of harmony to you all.

Otaku Crowd: Superheroes? Saviours? God? What's with all these nonsenses!? If you guys are saviours, then why are you guys dressed up as grim reapers!? I am not buying that crap of yours.. We are not stupid. You guys are the most suspicious entity walking around in every street we came across.. What are you guys truly up to??

*realizing that the cult members are having a difficult time deceiving the otaku crowd, the cult leader decided to give a charismatic and energetic speech*

Cult Leader: Although, you guys may not trust our kindheartedness and our objectives of bringing salvation to you all, bringing a new era of harmony and world without war. The new world will be under the leadership of the almighty Erebus, our God. And those who do not side with Erebus shall be judged and they will be sent to Hell to taste the flames of Inferno. We are not threatening you guys, we are just trying to explain so that you may have a better understanding of what position you guys stand in and who the Red Dragon Empire is all about. We are not just some doomsday cult, we are a very large non-profit organization legally approved by every nation in the world. We also have nukes as deterrents to prevent future wars so that our new world of harmony will succeed regardless of what happens. Do not fear us.. Lord Erebus is only here to protect you all.. Please give us your faith and you will never regret it. God will forgive you people's current blasphemy and grant you salvation as long as you fight alongside us on the day of the apocalypse brought forth by the demonic creature the capybara.

Otaku Crowd: Doesn't sound very convincing.. What is this demonic creature you guys keep talking about? Does it even exist? What does it look like?

Cult Leader: I know our objectives don't sound very convincing but you must keep in mind that we are the good guys and that people who are against us are the bad guys, the evil villians and that our God will bring salvation and will punish those who opposes him. The capybara is a creature about the size of a whale, it has about 200 fangs and weighs hundreds of pounds. It is said that it can devour an entire city within minutes.. However, its power is no match against Lord Erebus.

*Sigma was just checking out the electronic shop and overheard the loud noises where huge crowds gathered, so he decided to check it out*

Sigma: Is that a joke? Have you even seen the capybara before? Unless you have serious eye problems, I could swear you are being extremely ignorant. First of all, this demonic creature does not exist and neither will there be some sort of apocalypse. The capybara is a small rodent, about the size of an overgrown cat. I have no clue why the Red Dragon Empire is going by such means to gather attention and deceive people into joining their cause. It makes no sense at all..

Otaku Crowd: *bursts into laughter*

(Minutes passed by, as the laughter calms down, the crowd disperses as well)

Cult Leader: Who are you? Why dare you insult our Lord? How dare you mess with the Red Dragon Empire? Do you not know of the consequences in doing so? Do you not understand the price of blasphemy? Lord Erebus will send you to Hell to burn in the flames of Inferno..

Cult Members: You are going to die on the day of judgement and you are going to Hell.

Sigma: Is that another one of your jokes? If your Lord Erebus is God, then who are our leaders? Demons? Monsters? Very funny.. I am out of here..

*Sigma leaves*

(Regardless of the futile attempts, the doomsday cult continue going around streets after streets passing out leaflets and booklets, as well as readying tons of applications hoping to recruit more members into their suspicious cause involving a God known as Erebus.)

(Somewhere in the streets of Inaba, there seems to be a crowd gathering. It has something to do with the elections of Inaba, a place which the terror of Ameno Sagiri has just passed by for less than 3 months..)

Crowd of Civilians: Three cheers to Okada-sama!!!

Okada: Thanks for your support everyone!! I will do what I can when I become the new mayor of Inaba. Trust me!! I will definitely not waste any government fundings in building some crazy anime museum!!

Crowd: Of course, not!! *everyone broke out in laughters*

Crowd: Okada-sama is no otaku like that KY prime minister!!!

Okada: Instead, I will properly utilize government fundings to build a shrine to worship the great Lord Erebus!! If I were to become the prime minister, I will no doubt make the Red Dragon Empire a non-profit organization in Japan and will build a shrine to worship the almighty Lord Erebus in every major city. This is the least I can do for the people who have voiced strong support to me. I thank you guys from the bottom of my heart!!

Crowd: Long Live Okada-sama!! Forever Lord Erebus!!!

(Loud cheerings and clappings can be heard throughout the small town with less than a few thousand civilians due to the fact many have left the town after the incident involving multiple unexplainable serial killings, as well as the poisonous mist outbreak caused by Ameno Sagiri.)

(At the very same time, something happens in Shinjuku where huge crowds of people gather. It seems that a new cult is born...)

Cult Member: We demand democracy!!

Cult Member: We do not want harmony!!!

Crowd of People: What is this all about?? I have no clue... Suddenly, members of those grim reapers guy started changing into yellow outfits and chanting shit like democracy and support. I have no clue what is going on. Neither do I... Aren't they from the same Red Dragon Empire??

Cult Leader: Sorry for eavesdropping.. I would like to point things out. We are not part of the Red Dragon Empire. That's the group which supports tyranny and dictatorship, we do not support such a thing. We support democracy and they do not approve of it. On top of that, they are also hunting down our zealots, uh *cough* I mean our believers, our loyalists. We are from the new non-profit organization, the Yellow Dragon Republic. Although, we still haven't been legally approved as a non-profit organization in every country but we are doing our best..

*a group of devil summoners appear*

Devil Summoner B: What makes the Yellow Dragon Republic different than that of the Red Dragon Empire? Are you guys non-believers of Lord Erebus?

Cult Member A: No way!!!

Cult Member B: We would worship Lord Erebus with all our hearts. The tyranny and dictatorship we spoke of is that of the Red Dragon Empire, it is not the fault of Lord Erebus. It is thanks to Lord Erebus that we exist nowadays. Lord Erebus promises salvation and judgement against those who bring terror to the world.

Devil Summoner E: In other words, you guys like those grim reapers are also worshippers of Erebus?

Cult Leader: Of course, we are!!

Devil Summoner F: In that case, we are enemies too. Our Zero Faction have declared war on Erebus, the manifestation of malice and the one who is the greatest threat to humanity.

Cult Leader: How dare you insult our God!? Blasphemy!!!

Cult Member A: What's your name again? You better watch it..

Cult Member B: Yeah!! Next time we see you guys around, you are dead!!

Crowd of Civilians: I thought you guys were talking about peace and democracy.. Asking us for support and shit, so you finally showed your true colors.. They are also Erebus worshippers.. We can't trust you people.. Erebus is evil, yet you people claim it is your God who will bring salvation. I am not going to buy that bullshit of yours.. Let's get out of here people.

*crowd disperses*

Devil Summoner B: Red Dragon Empire or Yellow Dragon Republic, likewise.. If you people are going to revive Erebus and bring it into our world as means of false salvation, we shall crush you!! Please wake up.. Erebus is no God, it is the manifestation of negative emotions of humans, mostly malice. If you guys are going to worship and support malice, then our demons will show you the true meaning of it.

Cult Leader: Blasphemy!!! How dare you insult our God over and over again!? We will not let you get out of here alive...

*Devil Summoner E summons Asura*
*Devil Summoner F summons Laksmi*

*the demons quickly annihilated the threat leaving blood stains all over the area as well as a few set of corpses belonging to cult members*

Devil Summoner B: It can't be helped..

Devil Summoner E: I am sure our leaders will not have a problem with this. We did minimized the number of casualties as that we successfully got the crowd of innocent civilians to leave before taking appropriate actions.

Devil Summoner F: Let's leave

*group of devil summoners leave area*

(It seems that there is problem involving Erebus and the doomsday cults everyday. It also appears that no where is safe anymore. However, what exactly is this Zero Faction all about? Why was there a Buddha wandering in the science division? What sort of people are they? When will Erebus be revived? What does Erebus actually look like? It will all be revealed by the end of the spinoff.)

(In the middle of the night, in the quiet and peaceful town of Inaba, where Okada is trying to garner votes to become the town's next mayor, there is an outdoor party involving worshippers of Erebus. Luckily, thanks to the fact that Okada has heavy influences in town, the cult members are outside the laws of noise control. It seemed as though Okada will most likely win the upcoming election for mayor of Inaba. Mainly, it appeared that the only reason why someone like Okada, worshipper of Erebus have ensured a victory in the upcoming election is all thanks to the otaku prime minister and his set of flawless policies.)

(A meeting occurs in the streets of Inaba..)

Okada Aide A: If it weren't for the foolish prime minister and those rather useless policies of his, Okada-sama would never be able to obtain such a great number of supporters while backing the idea of building a shrine to worship Erebus. Most people are wary about the existence of Erebus, as well as the new popular concept that has being going around in the name of Erebus Vision.

Okada Aide B: Look at the prime minister's idea of spending government funding! Building an anime museum, no doubt why Okada-sama's idea of building a shrine to worship the God Erebus is much more well-received. The least to say, Okada-sama is spending the money for a non-profit organization in regards to religion, whereas the prime minister is just spending money to have fun.

Okada: Watch your tongue people! If people were to overhear your conversation just now, they will realize that something is wrong with worshipping Erebus. And if that happens and I lose votes, the Red Dragon Empire will stop supporting me and that is not good. With the support of the Red Dragon Empire, there is no doubt we can finally go up against the Americans on equal-footing because the Red Dragon Empire have nukes and tons of money.

Okada Aide A: Okada-sama, why do you hate the Americans so much? Why do you adopt the Erebus Vision, even though you are well-known to be a honorable politician who keeps away from money issues? Isn't that a little contradicting?

Okada: Not at all. I am honorable because people believes so, not that I really that way. More over, the only reason why people believes so is all thanks to the Red Dragon Empire's Erebus Vision project. And that is why I am supporting them. Besides that, the Americans cannot be trusted. They do not consider us on equal footing but more like superior-subordinate relationship. I do not like that..

Okada Aide B: What makes the Americans different than the Red Dragon Empire? Isn't it worse off? If you do not worship their "God", those doomsday cult members will make your new government as one with lots of problems. Don't you realize that?

Okada: Of course, I do but it cannot be helped.. The current prime minister and those minions of his are allies with the Americans. There is no way we can ally ourselves with that of our enemies? More over, there really is nothing bad about the Erebus Vision. By building a shrine to worship Erebus, these cult members will most likely support us politically and also financially. There is nothing to lose..

Okada Aide A: Sounds like a great idea!

Okada Aide B: I do not agree. Aren't the Erebus worshippers enemies of various organizations and nations? By building them a shrine, won't we become their targetted enemies as well?

Okada: It does not matter. All these people don't have nukes or the huge flowing cash of the Red Dragon Empire, they can do little to no effect towards our new regime. They are useless..

Okada Aide B: Why do I get the idea that I am supporting a tyrant here?

Okada Aide A: Watch your mouth!! Another word from you, I will personally ensure that you will not get a seat in the new cabinet.

Okada Aide B: ...

Okada: Everything is now set into motion, time will decide my victory as Inaba mayor and my fellow comrades will finally eliminate the useless ruling government. We will win a landslide victory!!!

Supporter: Okada-sama, may I ask..?

Okada: Of course, you may.. My dear fellow supporter..

Supporter: How can you be sure that your comrades will follow the Erebus Vision without disagreements? What makes you believe that your plans to help the Red Dragon Empire is actually set into motion? Are you the leader of your political party in which your words mean everything?

Okada: Not at all.. You are correct. This plan of mine is still in the stages of infancy in which it might not work out but by that time, the foolish doomsday cult members will totally buy into my proposal. They will support me in threatening the American nation as that my fellow comrades hold similar beliefs in which we can use this doomsday cult against the Americans to force unreasonable negotiations. Generally, I do not need to seek the agreement of my fellow comrades and everything will still proceed the way it should be..

Supporter: Okada-sama is such a genius!! I will give you my vote!!

Okada Aide A: Long Live Okada-sama!! Forever Erebus!!!

Okada Aide B: ...

(In downtown Dark Pearl, one of the major cities in which members of the doomsday cult Red Dragon Empire are mostly populated, as well as members of the breakaway division, the Yellow Dragon Republic... A few members of the Zero Faction's Devil Summoner branch decided to take a stroll to a local shopping center.)

Devil Summoner J: Is this the rumored location in which yomi-chan had been complaining about?

Devil Summoner K: Seems like it..

(A week earlier..)

Devil Summoner B: Last time I went to Dark Pearl, I couldn't access my own website.

Devil Summoner J: What happened yomi-chan?

Yomi: Everytime I tried visiting my homepage using those nice-looking kiosk computers, I would get automatically logged out.. It occurred over 50 times in the span of 3 days..

Devil Summoner J: Is that a joke or are you serious?

Yomi: Do I look like I am joking?

Sigma: Yomi-chan never jokes.. She is obviously being very serious..

Devil Summoner J: Logged-out 50 times and you still tried accessing your homepage, you must have a Lv6 for diligence!

Yomi: ... It got worse after awhile..

Sigma: What do you mean? What's worse than getting logged out 50 times and more just for visiting your homepage? Aren't those kiosk free of charge in which you can browse the web for 30 minutes per person?

Yomi: ...yes..

Devil Summoner J: Last I heard.. There are people who use it for hours, ignoring everybody else waiting in line..

Yomi: I know.. After all, that is one of the major cities of the doomsday cult. What's to expect..? But... Not just that I got logged-out over 50 times, they went as far as vandalizing one of the kiosk and it gets the out of order tag. After that, the remaining 3 kiosks follow suit in which one gets a damaged touchpad and a flickering screen. The other 2 were in good shape but these cult members would be using it to play pinball hours after hours.. They really don't like yomi's homepage...

Sigma: Poor yomi..

Devil Summoner J: Don't worry about it.. I will grab 2 other comrades and we will drop a bio weapon in that place..

Yomi: ...

Sigma: Supposedly, master says to not involve civilians but I am sure he will understand that this terrorist attack is necessary, considering what they done to poor yomi-chan..

(Back to the present..)

Devil Summoner J: So, we will dropping the mutated strain of our bio weapon here?

Devil Summoner K: Sounds like a good idea..

Kyo: We will make them pay for treating yomi that way... These cult members will suffer at the hands of our bio weapon. Currently, even our science division don't have an antidote for it. There is no way they can heal after getting infected by it.

Devil Summoner K: Why do I get the impression that we are doing something bad here?

Devil Summoner J: It can't be helped.. These are the members of the doomsday cult, our sworn enemies after all, are they not? Besides, this isn't the first time we used the bio weapon. Quit acting like rookies..

Kyo: Let's use the explosion tactic in which the bio weapon will create multiple carriers who will help spread it throughly in Dark Pearl and if the carriers wander off to other towns and cities of the doomsday cult, the effect will be even better!

Devil Summoner K: Kyo is definitely dangerous.. I wonder why you summoner fairies instead of something grand..

Kyo: What is wrong with summoning fairies? They are cute and deadly..

Devil Summoner J: Sounds fine with me.. I am sure yomi-chan would be happy that we avenge her. The least to say, it will save her time to summon her demons and wreck havoc instead.

Kyo: Totally agree..

Devil Summoner J: Let's get the job done and get out of here. This place is totally polluted. What's up with the smog here? I can bearly breathe..

(As soon as the small group of devil summoners drop their bio weapon, they left the location.)

(Different things occur at different places. Something big is about to go off in Shibuya. The first appearances of the modded DS seem to mean trouble for the popular location. It appears that the doomsday cult members are secretly passing out modded DS in which it is capable of summoning demons.)

Cult Member A: Only those who truly believe in the Erebus Vision may obtain one of these most precious modded DS that has infinite capabilities, such as saving the world or destroying it. As long as you possess the vision of Lord Erebus, you may obtain and use one in a manner which you see as most fit and right. Those who betray Lord Erebus will be killed on sight.

Cult Member B: We are not being harsh but these modded DS have more power than even the SDF's newly obtained technology from the American military. For that matter, you do not want to misuse this very useful technology.

Cult Leader: Long Live Red Dragon Empire!! Forever Erebus!!!

(A group of mysterious people seems to be gazing from afar..)

Mysterious Man: There seems to be something different about those DS.. I can't tell what it is from this faraway distance.

Mysterious Woman: Do you think we can trick them as false believes and obtain one of those modded DS?

Yomi: That's a good idea..

Sigma: The two of you will be joining their doomsday cult, study all those Erebus Vision teachings and obtain one of those modded DS each. Once you become full-fledged believers, remember to act like our enemies and also as Erebus loyalist whenever there is a good opportunity to do so.

Yomi: Do not play around with those modded DS once you get them.. Instead, playing along with those Erebus Vision worshippers until you guys receive the signal. Then, return to the science division and we shall examine these modded DS.

(Somewhere along the lines of the entrance to Akasaka Tunnel, different things occur once again but like always, only strange things occur.)

Devil Summoner J: So, this is the tricky place where the highway is connected to the subway and is guarded by members from TOKKO?

Devil Summoner C: It seems that way, maybe we should sneak in and check things out..

(In the park of Shinjuku, a fated meeting occurs..)

Businessman: There seems to be something wrong with all the electronic devices in Akihabara. I plan on checking it out..

Scientist: Let's not overdo it..

(It seems that multiple strangeness are occurring all over the places as long as members of the doomsday cult are around but it also appears that something more grand than Erebus will soon be uncovered. Or more importantly, when is the revival of Erebus? What will happen when Erebus is revived? Or has Erebus already been revived but haven't recovered its strength from the last battle with Minato and members of S.E.E.S. Due to the great seal, Erebus's powers haven't fully recovered and cannot cross dimensions just yet.. What are the new modded DS the Red Dragon Empire are passing out..? How will the bio weapon proceed in multiple locations? All of which shall be revealed as the story progresses..)

Expect an update to the story in a week or two as that there is currently a lack of good ideas. Generally, the update will have lots of Devil Survivor references.^^

(Its been a few weeks since the first sighting of modded DS which had been passed out by government officials to whoever that donates a certain amount of money to the famed Shomonkai. Government officials under the leadership of Mr. Potato claims that the modded DS are nothing more than a symbol of gratitude of faith to Shomonkai and loyalty to his political party which is backed by Shomonkai. Apparently, the Shomonkai was founded by an individual named Revolver Takaya and the guy claims that their "God" will hand out divine judgement on those who do not join their faith and that only by believing in their ideals can one obtain salvation when the apocalypse comes. Takaya believes that the apocalypse is going to occur as that Erebus will destroy the world and that his "God" will fight against Erebus yet he says nothing about who his "God" truly is. Mr. Potato, on the other hand is a true and loyal believer of Revolver Takaya, not mentioning that he is the current emperor of Japan.)

(However.. It also appears that there is a mass underground movement going on that seeks to overthrow Mr. Potato and this terrorist organization is secretly sponsored by the opposing cult, the Red Dragon Empire. It is also known that the leader of the terrorist organization is a masked individual in the shape of a humanoid claiming as Joker. Little do people know is that Joker is actually Jun Lamperouge, a former high-ranking member of Shomonkai. However, Jun was unhappy as that the Shomonkai chose to promote Azuma instead of him and thus, he left to start his own organization under the influences of the Red Dragon Empire as that the leader of the Red Dragon Empire gave him a special power in which he made a secret pact with Erebus and obtained the Cursed Eyes of Manipulation. With these cursed eyes, Jun easily recruited tons of zombie fighters and supporters within a mere few days. However, the Zero Faction is not very impressed at the new terrorist organization, the Shomonkai, or the Red Dragon Empire and decided to make hell to them, as well as wreck havoc as that the leaders of the Zero Faction were originally the creators of humanity and seeing how humanity had degraded into, there is nothing better to do than destroy and recreate as that these people are no longer fit to exist as humans.)


(In downtown Ginza, the Shomonkai set up a booth to promote support to Mr. Potato and seems to be attracting the attention of large crowds.)

Shomonkai Member A: Please support Mr. Potato!!

Shomonkai Member B: Support Mr. Potato like you support us, the Shomonkai!!

Shomonkai Cult Leader: If anybody manages to save 100,000 yen and donate it to Mr. Potato's political party, please come and pick up a modded DS. It will grant your desires. These modded DS are specially made.

Man A: This is strange. Why is a full-fledged religion passing out game systems in the middle of town claiming it as some sort of political campaign!?

Man B: It makes no sense.. They even come in multiple colors..

Woman A: I want the purple one. It looks cute.. I guess I will have to save some money or maybe get a part-time job. 100,000 yen is quite an amount..

(In the park of Inaba, Arisato Minato and his new comrades are holding a meeting to do deal with the revival of Erebus.)

???: Its been awhile everyone..

Akihiko: Oh, hey Mochizuki-san! How is it going??

Chihiro: Maya, you are off from work?

Maya: Yes, I thought I should take a break sometimes. Besides, I heard there is purse sale in town. I could get a new one. I lend my other one to my younger sister and she got all these white powder in it. I wouldn't want to get in trouble with my collegues as that they may think I am some sort of drug addict. White powder is pretty suspicious, you know..

Chihiro: No way.. I am sure you will do fine. After all, who doesn't know you are..

Minato: Mochizuki Maya, so you got any new information on Erebus? I am guessing you travelled all the way here from Tokyo is that you got some important things to discuss with us as opposed to be buying some purse in the local discount shop..

Maya: Watch it! Its not a local discount shop.. Its..

Akihiro: Enough! Let's get down to business..

Maya: While walking around in Akihabara, I have seen the Red Dragon Empire spreading some sort of religious crap about the salvation and judgement with something to do with their Lord Erebus. It seems that the "God" of the Red Dragon Empire happens to be Erebus. Speaking of which, I have also been harassed by members of the Red Dragon Empire. Their cult seems to enjoy making harassing phone calls. They even annoyed the hell out of me at work.. Terrible people!

Chihiro: Nothing unexpected.. Hope it didn't cause you imsonia Mochizuki-san..

Akihiro: Where are the others? Should we talk at the newly opened Peace Diners instead of this park? There seems to be quite a lot of mosquitoes here..

Maya: That would be nice.. I am feeling hungry too.

(The party flocked over to Peace Diners, a newly opened fastfood chain.)

Maya: I will make the orders.

Minato: Sure, I will get a coffee.

Akihiro: Same.

Chihiro: I don't feel like eatting anything, is it okay for me to be sitting here without an order? In that case, grab me a coffee too.

Maya: Huh? I feel as though I am forcing you three over to eat when you guys aren't hungry but oh well... I can't help it. I am very hungry. I will grab a Peace Diner Specialty Combo.

(15 minutes later...)

Maya: *munch, munch*

Akihiro: I can't believe it..

Minato: Nice suggestion, now we can't talk anything with her eatting away like that..

Chihiro: *yawn*

Maya: Well.. Members of the Zero Faction was asking if we could ally with them but I don't really like the idea. These guys summoned demons *munch, munch* and they devoured those damn soldiers I hate so much.

Chihiro: Why do I get the feeling that you are... I think I lost my appetite.

Maya: What?? Anyways, the Zero Faction seems to consist of devil summoners and also other people I don't know about. They did save civilians of my hometown from getting ran over a tank yet I just couldn't stand the sight of demons devouring humans. Its so wrong... Don't know if I can work with them..

Akihiko: I heard of them but they are not devil summoners. I don't even know where you get the idea. The guys I met were from the Zero Faction and they are persona users like us. Demon summoning? No clue what you are talking about..

Chihiro: Perhaps, I should call the others to meet up at Peace Diners. Let's hope they aren't wandering around at the park all this time.. *calls teammates*

(Two members arrive late.. Other members have yet to arrive..)

Rivalz: Sorry, I am late..

Milly: We were..

Minato: Doesn't matter.. Mochizuki Maya is telling us something important, please listen..

(The conversation continues..)

(The portal to the Meat Dimension was forcefully opened by high-ranking members of Zero Faction in a well-coordinated action plan.)

(At an unknown location, a meeting between Zero Faction members took place.)

Sigma: That Joker seems to be up to no good. It appears that his terrorist organization has been receiving secret fundings from the Red Dragon Empire in an attempt to remove Mr. Potato from his throne as that the Red Dragon Empire's Erebus is no friend of the Shomonkai's "God". However, from what we know is that both cults are threats to humanity and must be eliminated at all costs necessary.

Yomi: I have just the right plan to do the job. I will be playing decoy and Kurosu-san will be pulling off a trick or two, right?

Jun: How dare him!? Not just that he stole the name of Joker, he is wearing that ridiculous Justice Ranger outfit wandering down the streets. How awful..

Tatsuya: Kurosu Jun will be replacing Jun Lamperouge as that terrorist organization head. Be sure to waste all those nice cheques..

???: I have opened the portal the Meat Dimension, all you guys got to do is trick him into the portal. Remember, you guys only have a few hours to pull this off. It isn't easy to open the portal as that Erebus is currently recovering its strength in the Meat Dimension.

Yomi: Alright, let's get ready!! ^^

(The leader of the terrorist organization, Joker was wandering the streets of Shibuya in his ridiculous outfit which resembled those old Justice Rangers..)

Yomi: Hey Jun!

Joker: (No way.. How did she..) *ignores*

Yomi: That oufit looks lame.. Are you trying to act like the Justice Rangers? I don't remember seeing a black outfit though..

Joker: (How dare she..!?) *turns around*

Joker: *uses Cursed Eyes of Manipulation* In the name of Joker-sama, I command you to answer all my questions.

Yomi: Yes Joker-sama.. (Fooled him..)

Joker: Who are you? Who sent you??

Yomi: I am Mochizuki Maya, uguu~

Joker: Who sent you??

Yomi: The guy with a strange air at the Taiyaki shop.. Over there, look!

(Somewhere near the Taiyaki shop.. The God-like individual is observing along with Tatsuya and Sigma..)

Sigma: Do you think that guy will fall for it?

???: He must enter the Taiyaki shop in order to enter the Meat Dimension as that I set the portal right at the entrance. All you two got to do is make sure nobody else enters the Taiyaki shop before he do. The portal will only take one person.

Tatsuya: Alright, here goes nothing..

(Back at the streets of Shibuya..)

Joker: I command you, lead the way to the Taiyaki shop!

Yomi: I will lead the way, yes my lord! (I better not break into laughters. This guy is so dumb, he is falling right for it..)

(Joker finally arrives at outside the entrance of the Taiyaki shop. Sigma, Tatsuya, and Jun is already there waiting for their arrival to grant him a warm welcome.)

Yomi: We are finally here, uguu~

Joker: (Maya is a strange one. Luckily, these Cursed Eyes of Manipulation works perfectly.)

Jun: Hey Jun Lamperouge? I can't believe you tried to steal the name of Joker.

Joker: (What!? What is with these people...? How do they know...?) Who are you?

Jun: Kurosu Jun, the one known as Joker-sama of an incident that occurred on Xibalba two decades ago. Why are you being such a copycat?

Tatsuya: I wonder who will be copying who. Kurosu, kick the guy into the Meat Dimension and you will get to enjoy some free cheques.

Jun: Persona!

(Joker was kicked into the Meat Dimension and is forever lost.. However, little do the team know is that Jun Lamperouge had made a secret pact with Erebus who currently resides in the Meat Dimension. By devouring an indefinite number of Shanghai meatball noodles, Erebus replenishes its power little by little.)

Yomi: It seems we are done here. Now, I can go drop by at Inaba. There seems to be a newly opened Peace Diner over there.

???: In that case, I will report back to headquarters. *flahes away*

(At an unknown location, ??? had arrived at the headquarters..)

Bishamon: How did the Meat Dimension mission went?

???: Mission? I thought of it as a stroll down the park.. Petty humans aren't worthy of being called a mission.

Bishamon: I do not think of them as petty humans. You better watch that attitude of yours.. If Zero hears it, he will not be pleased.

???: Whatever... Like I care..

(Over at Peace Diners, it seems Mochizuki Maya is still busy munching away her hearty meal while discussing an effective attack plan against Erebus's revival.)

(On the planet Earth, an eclipse can be seen in the eastern hemisphere but the reasons as to why it occurred is unknown to most people.)

(In downtown Shibuya, a crowd gathers to view the amazing sight of the eclipse which supposedly is harmful to the human eye as that it may cause blindness yet most people could care less.)

Tatsuya: This seems to be exactly as what happened over 10 years ago, isn't it?

Jun: Yes, it occurred in Xibalba.

Tatsuya: Speaking of which, isn't that guy we kicked into the Meat Dimension copying you entirely as though he knew of the incidents of Xibalba..

Jun: Yes, it is strange as that we share the same name yet.. His terrorist organization seems to be a total rip-off of my Masquerade aside from the fact that the terrorists weren't using crystal skulls.

Tatsuya: That's because these guys are doing political mass movements as opposed to vital energy gathering. They are obviously doing different things than you and your Masquerade, except..

Jun: Have you forgotten our battles against Hitler and his Last Battalion. Isn't that politics too?

Tatsuya: That's a very good point! However, why would Jun Lamperouge know anything about the events of Xibalba? Just because he is around the same age as you doesn't necessarily mean he know anything about Sumaru City and the misfortunes which occurred.

Jun: Not really.. Have you forgotten that the In Laqetti and those prophecies were all over the news during those hard times when Xibalba's events occurred?

Tatsuya: Oh.. That's like over 10 years ago..

Crowds of people: Look! Look! The sky is becoming dark!!!

Tatsuya: Isn't that the eclipse? Won't it cause blindness to stare at it??

Jun: Since I still have to fill up that terrorist leader role, I can't stare at something so absurd. We better leave this place, who knows what that eclipse can cause..

*Tatsuya and Jun leaves area*

(Jun Lamperouge who got kicked into the Meat Dimension seems to be having a good time and is planning to ask Erebus for more powers so that he can seek revenge against the guys who toss him into a strange portal.)

Joker: I hope those guys better not mess up my organization for me. I still have many plans to carry out. This isn't working for me... I need more power!!

(Within the realms of the Meat Dimension, hunger is never a problem.)

Joker: (Look at all these hearty meals around me. I wish I can stay here forever but wait.. I need to seek revenge against those guys. There is no way I can stay here any longer than I already did. Is the time working the same in this dimension? Isn't this the place where Lord Erebus is recovering? I better get new powers. They will receive twice the damage for making a fool out of me. I need more power!!!)

???: Is your desire for power a genuine one? What is your reason to obtain powers? Do you want the power to destroy? Your hatred and anger is very strong. I can grant you your powers. Just show me that hatred and angers of yours!

Joker: But I am too hungry right now..

???: Unless you truly desire power, the power to destroy.. I will not help you.

Joker: Yes, I desire the power to destroy those who have crossed my path!

???: You call that hatred and anger? What a waste of time...

Joker: (Perhaps, I should eat some of those Peking Turkey over there first. And maybe some Coffee Sauce Pizza. Or maybe, I need some of that Shanghai Chicken Noodle. Or maybe, that...banana meatball ramen. Then again, maybe I should eat some of those ostrich rice noodles. They all look so delicious, I can't seem to pick the one I want.)

(3 hours later..)

Joker: (I haven't ate anything since my last meal. Was it the 7th or the 8th? I still feel rather hungry. Oh well...)

Joker: I desire power. I desire the power to destroy!! Grant me your power!!

???: I can sense a strong anger and hatred in you. Perhaps, you are fit to wield my powers as your sword of murderous destruction. Jun Lamperouge, I choose you to be my master. Call my name. Call Red Rider!!

Joker: Red Rider, heed my call!!!

Red Rider: Our contract is complete. You can summon me whenever your will desires it. Unless for the purpose of destruction, please do not disturb my slumber.

Joker: Alright, please leave now!! (Time to eat the rest of the dishes here. God, I just love the Meat Dimension!!!)

(Before Jun Lamperouge meets Erebus to have his persona materialized, he managed to obtain a contract with a powerful demon. However, things outside of the Meat Dimension happens entirely different as that it is as if they are different worlds.)

(Back in Peace Diner, the conversation has yet to end as that time flows differently from inside the Meat Dimension and outside the portal.)

Maya: *munch munch* I can't seem to get enough of this delicious combo..

Akihiko: Slow down and don't talk while you eat..

Maya: Well.. Just thinking about the Red Dragon Empire makes me angry. Ever since some of those cult members caught me using my persona against those annoying soldiers who were terrorizing my hometown with tanks running all over the places. I keep on receiving these harassing phone calls from the Red Dragon Empire almost everyday. They call my workplace, my home, and my cell. What's with these people? Do they have no honor??

Minato: Honor? This is the Red Dragon Empire you are talking about. Honor does not exist in their dictionaries, the whole world knows that. And truth is they don't even care the slightest. This is where the problem is..

Maya: Still.. I have been unable to sleep for the past couple of months. That damn cult is causing me a lot of stress. And that is why I am enjoying this hearty meal right now at Peace Diners as that this place is really peaceful.

Chihiro: Sorry to hear you have insomnia.. Perhaps, it was a mistake for Philemon to awaken your persona. If you hadn't fought against the Red Dragon Empire's devoted cult members, you wouldn't look so pale now.

Maya: I can't help it. Its not Philemon's fault. I wanted the power of the persona as that my hometown was under attack. With my power, I must do whatever necessary. Even so, speaking of stress... Those cult members just don't give up..

Akihiro: Perhaps, I should contact those Zero Faction members. They will most likely solve your problems for you and gave you enjoyable good night sleep for awhile at least.

Maya: No!!! I wouldn't want to sleep and have nightmares if those guys intend on killing all the ones that has been giving me stress and making harassing phone calls to me. Good night sleep shouldn't be ones involving nightmares of blood..

Akihiro: Well.. Is there a better solution to your problems? Besides, you are uninvolved even if cult members start disappearing as that they will take full responsibility for their actions as if its their business and not yours.. You shouldn't get nightmares when strangers kill other strangers, right??

Maya: Supposedly yes but I am not uninvolved. I have a persona and I made a contract with Philemon. This isn't going to work.. Please don't get those Zero Faction guys involved. They seem to be adopting the tactics and strategies of the Red Dragon Empire and using it against them. Although it seems to be quite effective as that they are making better uses of it but still.. I want to have a good night sleep without seeing people die for my sake. Its wrong...

Akihiro: You are contradicting yourself as that you obtained your persona in order to destroy Erebus, their God?

Maya: Yes and their evil cult too.

Minato: Then, you have no clue what you are talking about yourself.. Perhaps, we should continue this conversation elsewhere after your hearty and peaceful meal, of course.

(The meal continues.)

(Lately, it appears that this phone call scam had become quiet popular in multiple towns and cities. The scammers tend to call whoever they like and ask for an amount of money over some dubious reasons.)

(Back at home, in the Iwatodai Dorm.. The team led by Akihiko had left Peace Diners and return to discuss on the matters with regards to the revival of Erebus.)

*The phone rings as soon the door was opened.*

Akihiko: I will go pick it up.. You guys just get in here and close the door please.

Chihiro: I will come in last, everyone please enter..

Akihiko: Hi, this is Iwatodai Dorm. Who is calling?

???: Its me!

Akihiko: Who is this again?

???: I am a distant cousin of Junpei. He ended up with the swine flu and needs some emergency money, 100000 yen should be fine. He asked me to call for aid as that he is currently still trying to recover.

Akihiko: !? Junpei has the swine flu??

Minato: What?

Chihiro: (I thought he died 3 months ago..)

Maya: The persona-user who fought alongside you guys? He is still alive? I thought his body was turned into a bee hive full of bullets. Swine flu, what is this about??

Akihiko: Oh? Really... That must suck.. So, how much money does he need again?

???: Just 100,000 yen will do. He currently does not have the money to pay his rent and bills due to the swine flu.

Akihiko: How should I transfer the money over?

Minato: Wait, are you...?

Akihiko: Hold on a sec...

(Akihiko talks to the group..)

Akihiko: Listen, this is a fine opportunity to get my Zero Faction buddies to demonstrate how they handle things. Depending on how they handle this foolish scammer, you may want to ask them for aid in dealing with the troublesome cult members.

Maya: So, this is your idea of a demonstration? 100,000 yen for a life?

Akihiko: Just shut up.. I will get this handled in a very appealing manner..

(Back on the phone with the mysterious caller who claims to be the distant cousin of Junpei, a former member of SEES who died 3 months ago. Nobody knows how he died with the exception of the Zero Faction but all they told Akihiko was that they found a corpse filled with multiple instances of gun wounds. Obviously, it has nothing to do with the dublious swine flu infection the mysterious caller seems to be implying.)

Akihiko: So, you want the money in cash or cheque?

???: Cash is better. Shall I arrange a meeting place?

Akihiko: I have never seen you before. Is it okay I ask my trustworthy friends to meet you and they will hand you the money. Hope Junpei is recovering soon..

???: Sure, but how will I know who the guys you are sending over?

Akihiko: Don't worry 'bout it.. They will find you. *chuckle*

???: Huh? Anyways, is it okay if I meet them at the Ginza shopping mall?

Akihiko: (Sounds like a challenge for them.. In a mall, huh?) Sure, no problem.. They should be there in 30 minutes or so. Have fun!

???: Fun? What are you talking about??

Akihiko: Nothing, nothing in particular.. Just thought Junpei would be overjoyed to have such a great distant cousin helping him through the hard times of the swine flu.

???: Don't mention it..

(The call ends.)

???: That Akihiko guy is a bit strange but I still fooled him. Now, my money will arrive to me. This is so damn easy.. He is the 5th one this week.. In another week, we will be millionaires.

Another Scammer: Is this a bit easy? Should I go there in advance to do some recon just in case this Akihiko guy isn't a fool..?

???: No worries. Let's go with the original plan.

(Over at Iwatodai Dorm..)

Akihiko: I will now call Sigma. He seems to be in charge of most affairs or at least, it seems that way..

Maya: Who is Sigma?

Minato: Probably a low-ranking member of the group..

(Akihiko makes the call..)

Sigma: Its rare to receive one from the Iwatodai Dorm.. So, are you guys planning to ally with us against the Red Dragon Empire and figure a way to stop the revival of Erebus?

Akihiko: No.. Maya won't cooperate and the other members are divided on opinions of whether to deal with Erebus together as a team or form an alliance with another group. Besides, I thought you guys can deal with Erebus without any help?

Sigma: Although I can't fight Erebus on my own but then again, I am just another low-ranking veteran member. Zero and the other leaders of the group will most likely deal with matters themselves.

Akihiko: Funny that you are a low-ranking member yet you involve yourself in so much matters. Waiting to get a promotion or something?

Sigma: Not really.. I just hate those Red Dragon Empire members. I want to crush them myself.

Akihiko: Let's just cut the chase.. There is this scammer guy who claims to a distant relative of a former member of my group who died a few months ago and is currently asking for 100,000 yen. I get the feeling that I am not the first victim of the "it's me" scam. How about dealing with them for me? If you guys do a good job, maybe I can convince the others into our alliance?

Sigma: Dealing with them as in...?

(Over on Sigma's side..)

Yomi: Dealing with scammers? Let's kick them into the Meat Dimension. That Joker guy must be getting lonely in there. Perhaps, its time to send a few more to play with him..

Sigma: Be quiet..

(Back on the phone..)

Sigma: Sure, we will handle the matters. Where is location and time?

Akihiko: Ginza shopping mall in 30 minutes..

Sigma: Just watch the news later. Don't worry.. Yomi gets to decide on how to deal with these problematic bunch.

Akihiko: I get a bad feeling the others will grow more distant to the Zero Faction after this anti-scammer event..

(Phone call conversation ends..)

Akihiko: For the next hour, we shall discuss matters relating to the Red Dragon Empire. After that, we should check the news on Ginza shopping mall.

Maya: Why do I get a bad feeling about this??

Minato: Don't assume things on the level of the surface! Whatever that seems the way it is may actually be something of a different nature and manner once you know the truth.

Chihiro: Since when did you become a philosopher after your revival?

Rivalz: I don't get any of this.

Milly: It feels as though we have been forgotten all this time.

Akihiko: Not really.. Its just your powers are too weak and useless when it comes to dealing with these people.

Rivalz: Is that an insult? I am a persona-user too!

Milly: Yeah..

Akihiko: Like I care..

Maya: I still feel hungry.. Anything to eat here??

Akihiko: Again? *facepalm*

Minato: Forget it.. I will go get some sleep. You guys go ahead with the discussion, Akihiko knows almost everything. He can deal with it..

Chihiro: Since when did Akihiko became the leader here?

Akihiko: Since everyone else became lazy and pushed everything onto me.. Incredible!!

(As the conversation turns from tension to comedy, things seems to be in a total different atmosphere elsewhere in Shinjuku. Over in Shinjuku, people are gathering to see the second eclipse of the week. Huge crowds of people came pouring into the center of the park.)

Chie: Its been awhile since I last came here. The place looks exactly the same as it was last I been here except that the sky looks darkening even though its just noon. Strange.. There are no stars in the sky.

Yukiko: That's because we get to see a second eclipse of the week.

Chie: What type of reason would there be to see two eclipses in one week?

Yukiko: How do I know..? Don't ask me..

Chie: Maybe, we should go ask Naoto. She seems to be wandering down those streets. Should I shout?

Yukiko: Let's shout together! NAOTO!!!

Chie: NAOTO!!!

(A man turned and look towards the two ladies who are making a fuss in the middle of the sidewalk. He seems to be doing an election campaign.)

???: Yes? You don't have to shout.. I know you two supports my political party but shouting so loud make cause all those observers of the eclipse to become upset at me and my party. It may produce a counter-effect. My leader will become Japan's next prime minister soon enough. Please refrain from shouting...

Chie: !? (I didn't realize there is another Naoto here..)

Yukiko !? (Speaking of which, there actually is one.. I totally forgotten about it.)

Yukiko: I am very sorry.. I wasn't shouting at you. We are looking for our friend who wandered into those streets and got lost.

Chie: My apologies. We are looking for a girl who goes by the name Shirogane Naoto.

???: Sorry, I had no idea. I did not see such a person wandered by. Can't help you.. Would you mind voting for my party?

Chie: Sure..

Yukiko: But we are still in high school..

???: Oh.. Sorry for not paying attention young ladies..

(Chie and Yukiko wandered over to the other streets in search of the wandering Naoto who got lost somewhere.)

Chie: Where is she??

Yukiko: I have no clue...

(A few blocks away from the park, Shirogane Naoto seems to be glued in front of a manga cafe. It appears that the latest volume of "The Adventures of Kuzunoha Raiho" has just came in..)

Naoto: Its my favorite Raiho..

Manga Fan A: Raiho?

Manga Fan B: Why is there a girl glued to the doorway here? Maybe, we should either push her inside the cafe or get the manager to remove her as that she is causing inconvenience to the store customers.

(In downtown Akihabara, there seems to be a rumor circulating with regards to the PSE-law. It seems as though the reason why the government is losing popularity was that a grand-scale conspiracy got leaked. Apparently, there are people claiming that the government had the intentions of using everybody inside the Yamanote Circle as sacrifices if an invasion coordinated by the evil Red Dragon Empire were ever to occur instead of pumping up the fighting capabilities of the Self-Defense Forces. The people are shocked to hear that after supporting the government so many years, they were considered as merely sacrificial tools on the scale of counter-invasion. Aside from that, partly it is related to the recent weeks of modded DS flowing through multiple cities across the country. Rumors claim that these modded handheld gaming devices are capable of summoning demons which possess the sole intention of wrecking havoc and causing destruction. In fact, there are eye-witnesses that religious believers of the Shomonkai had been handing them out to loyal supporters and also religious believers as long as they donate a hefty amount of money. It is also known that the current prime minister is a member of the Shomonkai and that his PSE-law was a recommendation to him by the Angels which possessed high-ranking members of the Shomonkai and spoke through the voices of Metatron. Mr. Potato is a faithful member of the Shomonkai and thus, words brought to him in the form of Metatron will obviously be taken at a 100% trust but unfortunately, little did he realized was that most people don't like both the Red Dragon Empire and the Shomonkai as that they are dominating the world through terror and tyranny. Nonetheless, the Shomonkai seems to be doing less damage to the country than the well-known evil doomsday cult, the Red Dragon Empire who had their members running tanks over civilians just over not joining their cult or donating money. Somehow, a grand scale battle will soon be revealed.)

(The discussion taken place in Iwatodai Dorms have yet to end yet the group was shocked to receive a second call from a different scammer with a different promotion. This time around, the scam relates to the ongoing crisis of the swine flu. Apparently, there had been tons of people looking to obtain the secret vaccine while that most people claiming to have the vaccine happens to be scammers.)

*The sound of a cute ringtone can be heard echoing through the quiet dorm.*

Akihiko: Now, what..? Who forgot to turn off their cell phones during our important discussion of how to deal with Erebus's revival!? This is very annoying...

Chihiro: Not me.. Not Minato either, he is still sleeping..

Milly: I had mine turned off before going to Peace Diners several hours ago..

Rivalz: I have yet to get a cell..

Maya: My apologies, let me answer it.. Its Mochizuki! Hello?

Mysterious Caller: Mochizuki-san, have you heard of the ongoing crisis of the swine flu? We have just the right product to help you through the tough times..

Maya: What?? What swine flu? There isn't any in Inaba.

Mysterious Caller: It will get to Inaba soon. The pope told me so..

Maya: What? Is this some cult again??

Mysterious Caller: Precisely, this is the Red Dragon Empire. In order to show our desire to save people from judgement, we have created a powerful cough syrup that will also cure all cold and flu symptoms.

Akihiko: Gave me your cell for a second, if you don't mind...

Maya: Wait..

*Maya hands over her cute-looking mobile phone over to Akihiko.*

Akihiko: Cough syrup?

Mysterious Caller: Yes, so you are interested in it?

Akihiko: Yes.. Where do I get a bottle?

Mysterious Caller: Its great to hear that young people like yourselves are placing trust in the Red Dragon Empire. I will arrange a place for us to meet.. How about the Kitsune-ji?

Akihiko: Sure, no problem. Wait... How much is the cough syrup??

Mysterious Caller: As a token of trust, you may have the first bottle free of charge. We, the Red Dragon Empire seeks the trust of young people and hopes that we may be able to bring salvation on the day of apocalypse.

Akihiko: No problem. Let's meet!

(The call ends. Akihiko returns the mobile back to Maya and makes a call to Sigma.)

Akihiko: There has been some problems.

Sigma: Sorry, I am busy at the moment. Call somebody else.. We are currently at Ginza, there is some unpleasant trouble..

*Yomi grabs the phone.*

Yomi: Akihiko? I have no clue who you are but I will handle the problems.

Akihiko: Not sure who I am talking to but okay, its something to do with Red Dragon Empire believers and cough syrup..

Yomi: No way.. Don't tell me is that cough syrup I kept on hearing about!?

Akihiko: You know about it??

Yomi: Yes.. A few months ago when I went to tour the Black Pearl city, a home base to the Red Dragon Empire. I see the cough syrup commercial all over the places. It seems to be very popular.

Akihiko: Really? What is the name of the cough syrup again???

Yomi: I think it comes in grape and cherry flavors. They call it the AP Cough Syrup and it is very popular among Red Dragon Empire believers as that it is their trademark product for colds and flu but I doubt it has the power to cure the swine flu.

Akihiko: How much does a bottle costs? Those guys promoting it are telling me that they will give it to me for free..

Yomi: A bottle should cost no more than 1000 yen. What is the problem and where is the location??

Akihiko: The problem is that these are the same guys who have been harassing my teammates everyday over joining their cult. And as you know, we SEES are devoted to fighting shadows and also stop the revival of Erebus. For that matter, there is no way we can join them. And also, there is no way we can stop their problematic actions either. Its like they do whatever they want or like.. Pretty annoying..

Yomi: I see.. Not sure if I can help you. I only have two demons under my current contract. If too many of them show up, I may not stand a chance..

Akihiko: No worries. I can use persona, as well as my full team here. Although, a few of them aren't around but there is still a total of 6 members here.

Yomi: Sounds good, so where is the meeting place??

Akihiko: They said to meet at Kitsune-ji but said nothing of the time. I guess we should head there now. Where are you again??

Yomi: I am actually in Ginza shopping mall. I don't think I can make it...

Akihiko: Oh..!?

Yomi: But don't worry.. I will send two of my comrades over there, they should appear at the temple before you. Currently, they seem to be watching the second eclipse at some nearby park in Inaba. No clue where..

Akihiko: Alright, I will go..

(Conversation ends and Yomi goes back to recon mission. Apparently, the scammers have yet to show up at the shopping mall.)

Akihiko: Two guys have already headed to the location. I will take my leave too, the rest of you can stay here and relax. There is no need for a horde of people heading over to receive a bottle of cough syrup.

Maya: But I thought the call was for me..?

Akihiko: Yes but that no longer matters.. What's important is that the Red Dragon Empire is enemies with the Zero Faction and that the revival of Erebus is a threat to humanity, not mentioning that Philemon has tasked us to deal with Erebus which means this has nothing to do with you anymore. Its on a much larger scale.

Maya: No way.. How could this be? I have a persona too!

Rivalz: We all have persona but so what..? Like hell it matters..

Akihiko: Minato is still sleeping. It seems he doesn't even care. I will now take my leave. I will deal with the troublemakers along with two other guys at the location already. It should be a cinch.

(Akihiko hurries over to the local temple where a fox spirit is worshipped. Arriving at the location, he sees two mysterious outfit individuals talking with two grim reaper outfit cult members. Shocked to find himself out of place, Akihiko approaches the argument at ease.)

Akihiko: What is going on here?

Persona User A: Oh..

Persona User B: So, you are Akihiko-san??

Akihiko: Yes and...

Cult Member A: Its just a misunderstanding.. They thought we were scammers but when we showed them our business cards and also our promotional product, the misunderstanding cleared up real quickly..

Cult Member B: Take a look at this bottle of cough syrup..

Akihiko: That's a rather unique logo.. Who designed it??

Cult Member B: I am afraid I have no idea.. Our religious organization tasked us in helping people and saving them from the swine flu crisis and thus, we do as we are told. I have no clue who made this cough syrup or who designed the logo. All I got to do is promote it and here is your free bottle. If you like our product, please call this number on my business card and you can purchase them for 1000 yen with a 10% discount, just tell them you are a friend of mine.

Akihiko: Nice design.. Grape flavor?

Cult Member A: Sorry, we ran out of the cherry flavor ones. We are also developing other flavors at the moment and they aren't finished with it.

Cult Member B: Grape flavor is most popular. It appears in most of our commercials.

Akihiko: I see..

Persona User A: Looks like we don't have to take action this time..

Persona User B: Even better, there is no need to waste our strength like this.. These are just rookies, can't use our persona on them. They will lose in a matter of seconds or not even..

Cult Member A: What!? Did I hear something just now??

Persona User A: No. We were talking about the new video game. It has nothing to do with you people. Don't worry about it.. I need to check out the game shop after I go do my prayers.

Persona User B: I will leave first. I am heading to Peace Diners. I am getting the new Green Tea Flavor Cola. Sounds interesting..

(Persona Users leave area.)

Akihiko: Well, thanks for the promotional product. Take care of yourselves guys!!

Cult Member A: Thanks..

Cult Member B: Same to you..

(Akihiko leaves the area with a free bottle of cough syrup. Akihiko then makes another call over to the Zero Faction.)

Akihiko: Do you guys have any available time?

Yomi: Would you want help?

Akihiko: Yes, how about checking the contents of this bottle of cough syrup for me? It looks rather suspicious.. The bottle appears to be a rip-off of the over-the-counter cough syrup known as Limetap but it has a rather unique logo and design. Its also grape flavor like the Limetap. Does it content hazardous ingredients?

Yomi: Okay.. I will send some subordinates to pick it up at the Iwatodai Dorm later. Bye now!

(The call ends and Akihiko returns to the dorm.)

(Somewhere in Yokohama, foreign tourists are being hit by a common seasonal flu. And thus, many of them are going to various pharmacies to make purchase of cough syrup.)

Foreign Tourist A: This pharmacy seems to be part of a popular Red Dragon Empire franchise, I can definitely trust the products they sell.

Foreign Tourist B: Yes, let's go in!

(Arriving at the pharmacy, the tourists felt confused as if they had entered the wrong shop as that various female employees are dressed up in unique outfits promoting cough syrup and other medical products.)

Foreign Tourist A: Excuse me, do you sell Limetap here? I happen to have a sore throat accompanied by a stuffy nose.

Employee: No, we do not sell Shomonkai-made products here. Instead, we have something very good that is better than some random Shomonkai product. Try this AP cough syrup! It is certified by the Red Dragon Empire and features this seal as proof. You can trust in our products. However, it is slightly expensive than most products as that quality comes first.

Foreign Tourist B: Wow!! This unknown cough syrup is almost twice the cost of Limetap yet the packaging and bottle looks almost an entire rip-off. Can we really trust this stuff? It just have a seal but...

Foreign Tourist A: Well, I was just looking for Limetap.. I don't think trying a new product is a good idea.

Employee: Just look at the seal, this is genuine! It is capable of soothing sore throats, calming coughs, stop runny nose, heal stuffy nose, and many more benefits.

(After 10 minutes of promoting and explaining...)

Foreign Tourist B: *yawn*

Foreign Tourist A: I feel kind of bad not paying the extra yen as that a pretty lady dressed in a sexy outfit going on and on with how good this product is yet if I don't buy it and walk away is just..

Foreign Tourist B: I do not think we can trust this place. Its a pharmacy of a popular franchise, why are there so many female employees dressed up like this and pursuing aggressive marketing promotions?

Foreign Tourist A: Its just an extra 500 yen, I can afford it..

(The foreign tourists bought the AP cough syrup and left the pharmacy.. A few hours has passed since then..)

Foreign Tourist B: How is the cough syrup? You feeling better??

Foreign Tourist A: To be honest.. The stuff doesn't work at all. I feel as though I just wasted money buying expensive useless crap but then again.. Considering how they set up the pharmacy and how hard-working the employee was at promoting the product, insisting that I must buy it or else I will regret it and that she looks stunning, I feel bad not buying it.. Somehow, I think we should go to another shop and get something better. This is absolutely useless!

(In a nearby park, a group of devil summoners were holding a recon mission and happens to have overheard the conversation of two foreign tourists.)

Devil Summoner E: Hmm... There seems to be something wrong here.

Devil Summoner A: It appears that the Red Dragon Empire is going all-out against the Shomonkai. Who would invest money in creating useless products that poses as a rip-off of another product?

Devil Summoner F: Perhaps, there is some unknown purpose as to ripping off Limetap and renaming it as AP cough syrup while creating a unique logo to go with it. Do people actually take that stuff and recover afterwards? Somewhat curious..

Devil Summoner G: Probably not as that sounds too much like a scam... Pretty ladies.. Sexy outfits.. Aggressive marketing.. Anti-Shomonkai.. Promoting the cult Red Dragon Empire.. AP cough syrup, don't make me laugh...

Devil Summoner E: With the Red Dragon Empire going all-out against the Shomonkai, is it really a good idea for us to be fighting against both cults?

Devil Summoner A: No clue.. Currently, it is a fact that the government led by Mr. Potato is clearly an ally of the Shomonkai. The Shomonkai are going to execute the PSE-law as a counter-invasion tactic to microwave the entire Yamanote Circle under special circumstances if the Red Dragon Empire were to attack. Of course, it is due to this reason why Mr. Potato is losing popularity as that most people living in the Yamanote Circle never agreed to be used as sacrifices. It is also known that some members of the popular anti-government forces consider themselves as enemies of the Shomonkai, while some are even worshippers of Erebus.

Devil Summoner F: Although the unknown "God" of the Shomonkai seems to be a very suspicious entity, while their objectives are also questionable but it is a fact that the revival of Erebus must be stopped at all costs as that the entity is the manifestation of malice.

Devil Summoner G: Luckily, the Erebus have yet to recover from its defeat by former members of SEES and is currently residing in the Meat Dimension.

Devil Summoner A: I wonder where the Meat Dimension is actually located. Why does this place even existed in the first place?

Devil Summoner G: I don't know and I don't care. All it matters is that Erebus is currently wounded and hidden away.

(The recon mission and discussion continues in the park of Yokohama.)

(Its been a few weeks since Kurosu Jun had taken over control of Kuro no Kishidan and became their new Joker-sama after Jun Lamperouge had been kicked into the Meat Dimension where he had a hearty meal and also gained a contract with the demon Red Rider.)

(At the conference room in a hidden location somewhere within Osaka, the Kuro no Kishidan is holding a meeting, one in which only important figures could attend.)

Joker: Today, I will take off this mask and reveal to you guys who your leader had been all this time.

High Ranking Executives: No way... Are you serious!?

Kallen: Joker-sama, I am so excited yet nervous.. Who are you? I really wanted to know for such a long time. The one who I have been protecting...

Joker: Don't worry.. You might become a little surprised but.. Regardless of what happens next, I am still Joker of Kuro no Kishidan.

High Ranking Executives: Of course!!!

Joker: 13 years ago, I started an organization similar to this one. It was also considered a terrorist organization as that it claimed lives and caused trouble but I had a good intention. I wanted to save people from the revival of Hitler and his Last Battalion..

Kallen: What?

Kyoshiro: I have heard of this before.. Don't tell me....!? (Joker.. He couldn't possibly be the same Joker back then, can he? Then again, the concept of this outfit is rather similar than what those guys had been wearing except that we dressed all-black as that we are the Black Knights; any other color would make no sense. Still... Our Joker-sama can't be that Joker...)

Tamaki: Huh? I don't understand one bit... Did you smoke cannabis Joker-san?

Diethard: I get it... Joker, how could I let this slip...?

Joker: Diethard, you most likely know who I am by now..

Diethard: Obviously, who else can you be after what you just said? *laugh*

(Joker takes off his helmet.)

Joker: I am Kurosu Jun, founder of the Masquerade and led a battle against the revival of Hitler and his Last Battalion 13 years ago on Xibalba, otherwise known as Sumaru City. This time around, I would like to declare war on a second Hitler known as Erebus and the second Last Battalion known as the Red Dragon Empire. We must stand up and crush this evil organization, restore peace to the world!!!

High Ranking Executives: We all agree and will stand by you, Joker!! Let us crush those fiends!!!

Kallen: Joker..is Jun!? How could this be...!? Wait.. Do you have a twin brother? You look like a friend of mine who goes by Jun Lamperouge..

Joker: No, I don't. That's odd... (Now that you mention it.. That guy we kicked into the Meat Dimension looked like me. How could this be? Wait.. Don't tell me those minions of evil Kim had cloned me when I fell captive several months ago!? This isn't possible... I better contact Tatsu and get him to check things out at headquarters. The idea scares me..) *sweating*

Kallen: Jun, you are sweating? Are you okay??

Joker: I am sweating because of you.. *chuckle* (I better stay calm. There is no way I got cloned while getting abducted to the Northern Swallow Empire; they did do some sort of weird scientific experiments on me but still...)

Kallen: Huh?

Joker: Now that I have taken off my helmet, would like to go on a date?

Kallen: .... *blushes*

Joker: That's a yes? (Good, nobody has noticed yet.. Better keep my cool.. Tatsu, I need to contact Tatsu quickly..)

(The meeting continued as mainly chit-chats between Kurosu Jun and everyone there, especially Kallen.)

(In the Meat Dimension, Jun Lamperouge is trying to come up with a plan to open a portal and leave the place so that he can return to the conference room for a scheduled Kuro no Kishidan meeting he arranged 2 months ago.)

Mr. Lamperouge: (How could this be!? I was going to reveal my face today so that... That Zero Faction member better not be messing around with my organization. All of my plans are set into motion, how could it be ruin by a simple fate of misfortune like this!?)

???: I can hear you.. If you would like to leave the Meat Dimension, you must become stronger.

Mr. Lamperouge: Who are you?? Wait.. There shouldn't be anyone else in here except Lord Erebus. A ghost???

???: I am you and you are thou. Heed my call and you shall gain ultimate powers!

Mr. Lamperouge: I can feel it.. So, this is the powers of a persona? Pretty impressive. MAGATSU CHRONOS!!!

(Jun Lamperouge has obtained his persona, Magatsu Chronos.)

(A door has appeared in the Meat Dimension.)

Mr. Lamperouge: (Now that I have my very own persona and also a demon by my side, I will now get out of this place and head back to the conference room at full speed. That impostor...)

(Jun Lamperouge had obtained the door and it appears to lead to a location where nobody is around and happens to be a block from the hidden Kuro no Kishidan meeting location.)

Mr. Lamperouge: (Nice!! This is all about luck. Looks like God is on my side!!!)

(Unfortunately, Jun Lamperouge wasn't expecting that there were devil summoners around the area on a lookout waiting to intercept all suspicious individuals from disturbing Kurosu Jun's brilliant plan.)

Mr. Lamperouge: No way..but you guys are no match against me!

Devil Summoner A: It would be funny if I were to be defeated by someone like you.. *summons Odin*

Mr. Lamperouge: Looks pretty cool but nothing compared to my demon. Come forth, Red Rider!!

Devil Summoner A: What? Why does he have a demon with him??? When did that happened!?

(An intense battle pursue resulting in Odin's defeat. Devil Summoner A had been knocked unconscious.)

Mr. Lamperouge: I am no murderer, unlike you guys.

Devil Summoner E: Not sure what happened here?

Mr. Lamperouge: You are no match against me.. Maybe, it would be better for you to check that guy lying on the ground instead.

Devil Summoner E: Silence!! I do not need to take orders from you.. Salamander, attack!!

Mr. Lamperouge: Is that a baby lizard of some sort?? *laugh*

(The battle begins and ends quicker than the last. Red Rider is victorious! Devil Summoner E had also been knocked unconscious.)

Mr. Lamperouge: (That was exhausting, all those flight of stairs. I am finally back.. Kallen, wait for me..)

Sigma: How unfortunate.. You ran into me when I was just about to take my leave. I was going to play UFO Catcher which features a new kappa plush..

Mr. Lamperouge: What makes you different than the other guys? Red Rider, destroy him!!!

Sigma: I guess I have no choice but to play that later. *summons Jack Frost*

(Jack Frost is easily defeated by the powerful Red Rider but Sigma doesn't fall yet as that he happens to also be a persona-user.)

Sigma: What happens if I use this instead? *awakens persona*

Mr. Lamperouge: A persona? Since when do devil summoners have such powers? Oh wait.. I almost forgot, I am also capable of doing so.. *awakens persona*

(Bishamonten battles Magatsu Chronos for a good 30 minutes and unfortunately to Jun Lamperouge's disappointment, he was defeated and has fallen captive.)

Sigma: Now, I will bring you back to the lab where the scientists there can have a good examination of you as that you look exactly like Kurosu Jun and the fact that your persona is closely similar to his makes it real odd. Almost forgot to tell you but Jun-chan's persona abilities aren't very good and yours are just about the same. *chuckle*

(Sigma takes Jun Lamperouge back to the research laboratories located in a hidden location. When the Kuro no Kishidan meeting ended, Kurosu Jun made an excuse with Kallen and hurried over to Tatsuya's place, then the two of them also headed to the scientific research laboratory to figure out the unexplainable strangeness.)

(Its been over 3 hours since the plan at the Ginza shopping centre was carried out in relations to a phone scammer that demanded 100,000 yen from Akihiro as that the caller claimed himself as a distant cousin of Junpei, ex-member of SEES who happens to have been hit by the ongoing swine flu and needs money to pay rent and other expenses. However, little do the phone scammer know is that Junpei had already been dead for a few months as that his corpse was found by the Zero Faction in which multiple gun wounds were present.)

Akihiro: Maybe, we should go drop by at Peace Diner's rival today. Its been a few hours since we last ate, I am feeling somewhat hungry.

Maya: Hungry? I had been hungry since a few hours ago..

Chihiro: Perhaps, you should visit the Meat Dimension sometimes. Maybe, you will never leave the place. *giggles*

Rivalz: I am not going. Minato seems to be sleeping still, I might as well watch the Dorm while you guys go on a journey.

Milly: I will go with you guys. Isn't that place the only restaurant in Inaba that sells Western cuisine? Peace Diner opened a shop here to challenge their popularity and see which shop will have most customers.

Chihiro: That is why Burger Queen has came up with a new menu item. I can't wait to try it out...

Akihiro: I will call up the other members who is never at the Dorm.. *calls Brown*

(Brown is one of the first persona users who fought in the Sebec Incident over a decade ago.)

Brown: Who is this?

Akihiko: The Anti-Erebus Brigade! No, just kidding.. Its me, let's go meet at Burger Queen, we will discuss about some cult-related matters.

Brown: Not interested.. I have better things to do. If Erebus is ever revived, you guys can handle it, I am more interested in the businesses I have to attend to.. *hangs up*

Akihiko: ....I can't believe the guy hanged up on me.

Maya: Who cares about Brown.. I will call up Yuki, she will no doubt join us at Burger Queen. *calls Yuki*

(Yuki is one of the first persona users who fought in the Sebec Incident along with Brown and a couple others. She had also fought alongside Tatsuya in the Masquerade Incidents.)

???: Who's calling?

Maya: A girl!?

???: Who are you? Why are you calling Yuki?? Tell me now!!!

Maya: I thought I dialed the wrong number but it seems that you do know Yuki, why do you have her mobile?

Yuki: Anna, give me my mobile back!!

Maya: Huh? What is going on over there!?

Yuki: Oh, nothing... So, why are you calling me out of the blue?

Maya: We are going to have some Anti-Erebus Brigade discussions at Burger Queen, thought you wanted to come.. They have a new item on their menu to compete with the grand opening of Peace Diners.

Yuki: Sure..if you don't mind I invite Anna over.

Maya: No problem! *hangs up*

Akihiro: So, there will be at least one person joining us?

Maya: Two.. Yuki will be bringing Anna over..

Akihiro: Anna, you don't mean that Masquerade member?

Maya: The what again? No clue..

(The Anti-Erebus Brigade made their way to Burger Queen, walking right past the newly opened Peace Diners which they had just ate lunch at a few hours ago. The Peace Diners in Inaba seems to be an exact replica of the ones in Sumaru City.)

(Since Akihiro had a courage of Lv6, he was able to enter the Burger Queen and the fact that he is the leading member of the Brigade, his teammates were also able to enter the shop with little courage.)

(The courage of the party had greatly increased! Milly has leveled up to Lv2 and Chihiro has reached Lv3.)

Shomonkai Believer A: OUR ALMIGHTY "GOD", PLEASE KILL ALL THE EREBUS WORSHIPPERS!!!!

Employee: We will be sure to add some chili sauce into your burger. Your anger has strong enough and you will receive a 5% discount as part of our promotional services.

Shomonkai Believer A: I think I am going to have a sore throat now.. Eatting chili sauce with a dry throat is a very bad idea but the 5% discount is definitely worth it!!

Shomonkai Believer B: Its my turn!! METATRON, CAST JUDGEMENT ONTO THOSE TERRORISTS!!!! (I think I am going to lose my voice now.. Hopefully, Metatron actually hear my prayers..)

Employee: Your angst isn't strong enough. Its as though you are forcing yourself to do it for the discount. Thus, you get no discount.

Shomonkai Believer B: Actually, my angst is genuine. Forget the discount, I just want the burger!!

Maya: Looks fun!! I can't wait until my turn..

Akihiro: I don't know about this...(^_^;;)

Chihiro: There is nothing to be angry about. I wonder if they will let me order a burger without saying anything.

Milly: I know just what to say.. *giggles*

(10 minutes later.. Yuki arrives to the Burger Queen along with Anna, former executive of the Masquerade, a terrorist organization led by Kurosu Jun who is also well-known as Joker-sama.)

Yuki: Why are you guys standing in the middle of nowhere!?

Anna: Why don't we order something now? You people don't have to wait for us..

Maya: You are Anna?

Anna: Sorry for my rudeness awhile ago.. I had the wrong idea.

Maya: Wrong idea? I have no clue what you are talking about but that's fine with me.. Let us have our hearty meal now!!

(The Anti-Erebus Brigade along with a former Masquerade executive member decide to enjoy a hearty meal at Burger Queen due to its new menu item that is supposed to promote competition against the newly opened Peace Diners.)

Akihiro: Let me order first.. I would like the new item, what was it called again? Sorry.. I rarely eat burgers.

Employee: You should eat it more often. You look so slim and pale, eatting burgers will no doubt make your body a lot rounder. What have you been eatting sir?

Akihiro: I love Hagakure's Ramen. I also eat raw sea urchins. Its delicious!! Anyways, what's the new menu item called? I want one set please..

Employee: You mean the Angry Burger Set? That's a very good choice.. If you do a good job voicing your angst, you may receive a discount up to 50%. That's a great deal, way better than anything Peace Diners could offer.

Akihiro: Peace Diners would never put strange items onto their menu but okay, I will give it a shot!! *clears throat* IF ONLY I WAS STRONGER, MIKI WOULDN'T HAVE DIED IN THE FLAMES!!!!! *broke into tears*

Employee: Wow.. So dramatic!! You get a 50% discount right away..

Akihiro: Dramatic? How dare you!? My feelings are genuine.. I swear I am going use my persona and tear down this shop of yours..

Employee: Your anger seems rather realistic.. Perhaps, I should call the securities after handing you your burger set.

Maya: Akihiko, get out of the way.. Let us order one too.. I have been waiting for 30 minutes. Would you mind?? Before the securities take you away, I will use my persona and make you go away first..

Chihiro: *broke into laughters*

Milly: Why are we making a scene when we just wanted to fill out stomachs?

Akihiko: Sorry. I guess I will stand over here and wait patiently for my angry burger set now.

Maya: Forget him.. Its my turn!!! THOSE ANNOYING EREBUS WORSHIPPERS WHO KEEP ON CALLING ME SHOULD ALL GO TO HELL AND WRATH IN THE FLAMES OF INFERNO!!!!!! (I haven't went all-out yet, hope I will get a discount.)

Employee: .... Pass! You may have a discount of 30%, enjoy your stay!

Maya: Yes!! I have a discount.. Burger Queen is the best!!!

Yuki: Out of the way Maya, let me order now.. *clears throat* I WANT A PROMOTION, I WANT MY SUPERIORS TO DIE FOR ORDERING ME AROUND EVERYDAY LIKE I AM THEIR MAID OF SOME SORT. DIE!!! DIE!!! DIE!!!! (>_<)

Employee: Your anger is very strong and genuine. You will also receive a discount of 50%.

Yuki: Beat you Maya!! (^_^)

Anna: Its my turn!! THOSE WHO GET IN THE WAY OF YUKI SHALL BE KILLED BY THE HANDS OF LADY SCORPIO!!!

Employee: ...doesn't sound very angry to me at all. Why are you blushing? No discount.

Anna: Oh well...

Chihiro: Its my turn! I AM ANGRY AT BURGER QUEEN FOR NOT LETTING ME MAKE AN ORDER WITHOUT SHOUTING UNTIL I GET A SORE THROAT!!!!

Employee: *broke into laughters* That's a very good one!! I agree too but if I say so, my boss will fire me. And thus, you will not receive any discounts!!!

Milly: Its my turn... My turn.. My turn... (^_^)

Employee: Why do you look so happy? You are supposed to be angry...if you want a discount.

Milly: Sorry 'bout that! I am just extremely excited... JUN SHOULD STAY AWAY FROM KALLEN!!! HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN ABOUT TATSU????

Employee: ....I don't like yaoi and thus, no discount.

Milly: What?? *shows a sign of disappointment*

(The Anti-Erebus Brigade enjoyed their meal at Burger Queen, talking about the scams and the annoyances the Erebus worshippers had been causing everyone, as well as the rise of the Shomonkai, as well as other issues.)

Akihiko: I understand why Minato and Rivalz ditched our party to sleep at the Dorm. For some reason, I just noticed that we all seem to be having a sore throat. I think I lost my voice just now..

Milly: Rivalz must be laughing so hard at the Dorm that he will lose his voice by the time we get back..

Chihiro: Lucky Minato, still sleeping through all this. However, we won't get away with it. If we all have a sore throat which will develop into a cold with cough, he will no doubt catch it in a matter of time. *evil laughters*

(The Anti-Erebus Brigade continues their happy time together.)

(While the Anti-Erebus Brigade were having a hearty meal at Burger Queen, something strange had happened back at a hidden scientific research facility where Jun Lamperouge was held captive.)

Jun: I can feel it.. This is....!? (No way, how can I forget? My persona is reacting to Yuki's.. My persona is angry.. It must mean something bad had happened on Yuki's side but wait.. Who is Yuki? Where am I? The Masquerade...) My head.. It hurts!!

Scientist A: What's with this guy?

Scientist B: I have no idea what is going on.. It seems as though he is experiencing some sort of phenomenon that I can't even describe.

Devil Summoner A: It must have something to do with his persona. From what I heard, Kurosu Jun had obtained his persona powers from a lady named Yuki during the battle against Hitler and his Last Battalion when she was killed in action along with Fujino-san. However, HQ managed to save the two of them in time and even restore Yuki's persona powers which isn't supposed to be possible as that her persona powers are already transferred over to Yuki. Somehow, I get the feeling the ones in charge of the mission are even stronger and more capable than Philemon.

Scientist A: In other words, you are trying to say that if this Yuki person feels angry, this guy's persona will react? If Yuki is on a murderous rampage, wouldn't we be in danger right now?

Devil Summoner A: Yes, we actually are in danger but I doubt Yuki would go on a murderous rampage as that she isn't that kind of person or at least from I heard..

Scientist B: However.. What happens if this guy were to awaken right now and break free in order to escape? Buddha is still out.. We seem to be lacking the proper securities here.

Jun Lamperouge: I remember now..

Devil Summoner A: !? Speaking of the devil...

Jun Lamperouge: I am a replica of Kurosu Jun created by the Northern Swallow Empire during his abduction soon after the events of Xibalba but Zero Faction members saved Kurosu Jun and he joined them yet I was left behind..

Scientist A: I request immediate backup! A very dangerous individual is on the loose.. He is capable of multiple supernatural abilities.. *presses emergency communicator*

Scientist B: Looks like I have to fight too since we are under-staffed.

Jun Lamperouge: I don't know what I am doing but I can't stay here. I don't want to become your guinea pig. And neither will I ever become spare parts for Kurosu Jun. Magatsu Chronos, come forth!!

Scientist B: Oh shit.. I can't use persona abilities. *takes out a firearm*

Scientist A: I will do something about that. *summons Cait Sith* Alright, attack!!

Devil Summoner A: It is unfortunate that I was just saved a few hours ago from him defeating me and now, I have to fight him again. Supposedly, this is a good chance of redemptioin but I will no doubt lose.. *summons Cerberus* Destroy the target!

Jun Lamperouge: Look into my eyes, obey me!!! *activates the Cursed Eyes of Manipulation while awakening his Magatsu Chronos*

Scientist A: Yes, Master Lamperouge.

Scientist B: Yes, Master Lamperouge.

Devil Summoner A: (It seems his cursed eyes are more effective when his persona is awaken but unfortunate for him, I am going to fight him with my eyes closed. The cerberus will not be affected. This battle is mine..)

Jun Lamperouge: You two, gun down the blind summoner..

Scientist A: *fires handgun* Go to Hell!!

Scientist B: *fires handgun* Die!!!

(In the height of the battle, Devil Summoner A is fatally wound and his demon vanishes as that the contract is broken.)

Jun Lamperouge: The two of you lead me to the inner sanctuary of this research facility immediately.

Scientists: Yes, master Lamperouge. We will get to it..

(Elsewhere at Burger Queen, a strange occurrence is felt.)

Yuki: For some reason, I feel more angry than awhile ago.. What is this feeling? Is it Jun? Jun is angry but why? For what reason??

Maya: Just shut up and eat your burger.. So much things to say...

(The conversation continues at Peace Diner's rival competitor..)

(Over at Yokohama's most popular district, some followers of Yomi and Sigma are having a meal at the Pot of Gold seafood restaurant. It is a place where many members of the Red Dragon Empire tend to gather. It is also part of the Zero Faction's routine recon mission procedures but the group is more likely enjoying their meals as opposed to actually doing work.)

Tetsuya: Its been bugging me for awhile..

Yomi: What is?

Tetsuya: This Oryo-san who has been going around and beating up all Potato-san's loyalists causing trouble and wrecking havoc is a menace.

Sigma: Oryo? I don't see how it has anything to do with us.. She is only going after problematic bureaucrats, am I not correct?

Tetsuya: Yes and no.. You see.. A few of us here are former Self-Defense Force members who had both fought in anti-terrorism missions abroad and also Oryo herself on some occasions.

Sigma: You guys fought her and lose? Is that a joke? You guys have demonic contracts, don't you? *laugh*

Setsuna: Yes but its not like we can summon a demon in front of all my colleagues. Besides, its only a few of us with this ability and also that not everybody disagree with Oryo. Demons are very useful but to summon it in front of large crowds of people is a very bad idea.

Sigma: True..

Setsuna: Anyhow, me and this other colleague of mine took on the famous Oryo one-on-one on various occasions, its seems her fighting abilities are better than ours. So pitiful...

Yomi: And what should we do about it? You know.. Many members of the Zero Faction are fans of Oryo. Besides, its not like she is causing trouble at all. She is doing the right thing. Is it wrong to fight against wasteful spending of government fundings on projects like building an underground ancient civilization or create monsters through genetic engineering?? I cannot agree with you Setsuna.

Setsuna: Whatever.. I still don't like Oryo.

Tetsuya: You may have a point but you don't seem to understand things. Its been decades since the government of Japan had been making secret deals with the Shomonkai founders. They are also swearing to protect us from the Northern Swallow Empire's FLEIA threats, as well as the military expansionist attitudes of the Red Dragon Empire. All we got to do is agree with their few unreasonable demands such as fighting terrorists. Is it wrong? Or is it too much to ask?

Sigma: Twisted! Since when do we have blind members in the Zero Faction?

Yomi: I totally agree. *giggles* First of all, unless you haven't noticed.. The Shomonkai always kept a secret pact with the Red Dragon Empire to dominate the world as well as co-existence between their "God" and Erebus, even though Erebus worshippers on the other hand never had the intention to do so but that doesn't mean the Shomonkai leaders won't force their ideals onto the Red Dragon Empire in the form of unreasonable pressure. Not knowing who their "God" is, Erebus worshippers are rather cautious and thus, they will have no choice but to agree with the secret pact. Helping the Potato regime is the same as helping the Shomonkai's goals to dominate the world with the Red Dragon Empire, do you want that??

Tetsuya: Its not that I don't realize it but does Japan have a choice? The Self-Defense Forces are too weak. We can't fight two forces at once. And that is why I believe Potato-san is doing the right thing by compromising to the point of making our nation a loyal subordinate of the Shomonkai who would never disagree on any circumstances, even if the missions are totally wrong. We have no choice..

Yomi: That's so wrong, I don't know where to begin.. So, in order to deny reality, you would rather delude yourself into becoming a plaything for both the Shomonkai and the Red Dragon Empire? *laughs*

Sigma: These guys look like they have serious issues.

Setsuna: Hey, cut it out!! We are on the same side, are we not?

Yomi: Like Tetsuya had just pointed things out, yes and no..

Sigma: We have similar beliefs and ideals but unlike you guys, we will not accept becoming playthings of the Shomonkai or the Red Dragon Empire as that both cults have evil intentions. Many of their so-called anti-terrorist missions involve slaughtering civilians who are non-believers of their "God". It is exactly what the Red Dragon Empire have been doing. They slaughter non-believers in the name of justice while painting streets of multiple cities in the color of red which they claim to be as passion but it is obviously the red in blood.

Yomi: So, you guys were former Self-Defense Force members? Have many civilians have you slaughtered? What are your personal kill counts??

Setsuna: Why is doing something heroic and just considered a crime? How did I become a murderer just now?? Yomi, you are being unfair...

Tetsuya: I cannot deny everything you just said as false but neither does it really matter. Which government has not killed civilians under the banner of justice in history? It is only a matter of nature, the nature of humanity to have wars and struggles while claiming the lives of civilians. There is nothing wrong with it. Blame the leaders of Zero Faction for creating humans this way, don't blame us for killing civilians. We did nothing wrong.

Sigma: Like I say... You guys are twisted yet neither can I disagree with you either as that you are making a good point but I do not support your beliefs, however.

(As an argument breaks out during the meal in the seafood restaurant Pot of Gold, a Red Dragon Empire couple came and sat in the adjacent table ordering foods to consume.)

Erebus Worshipper Male: What a stressful day at work..

Erebus Worshipper Female: We need to recruit more Erebus worshippers at soon as possible. The more the better. If we can recruit another 100, we will get a promotion. A paycheque along with a free trip to the newly opened Shanghai resort. Its a very luxurious experience that we don't want to miss..

Erebus Worshipper Male: All I did today was clean and polish the Erebus statues at the local temple. Its tough work, yet little pay.. How disappointing..

Erebus Worshipper Female: While I was promoting the AP cough syrup, I once again made a call to Mochizuki Maya as that she kept on meddling with our non-profit religious organization. That bitch Maya had hanged up on me again.. Seriously, what is her problem!?

Erebus Worshipper Male: How many times have you people been calling her anyways?

Erebus Worshipper Female: Enough times to cause her stress and imsonia for awhile.. That's what she gets for messing with the Red Dragon Empire..

(Apparently, the Erebus Worshippers weren't paying attention to their surroundings as that the Zero Faction were still nearby arguing about their differences and views on Potato's regime.)

Tetsuya: Isn't Maya Mochizuki one of the Anti-Erebus Brigade members following Akihiko? I could swear Dojima was part of that group too..

Setsuna: Could be somebody else...

Yomi: How many Mochizuki Maya have been messing with the Erebus worshippers? It cannot be anybody other than possibly the one in our sub-division. So, that girl is suffering stress and insomnia all the time? Should we do something about it?

Tetsuya: Why don't we mind our own businesses? I don't like Mochizuki Maya either.. She reminds me of Oryo-san, somebody I strongly dislike. I have no intentions of helping her. If you want to do it, do it yourself..

Yomi: That's harsh.. We are all fighting to end Erebus's revival, are we not?

Setsuna: Yes but we can do it without her. She is useless anyways. First of all, she seeks to defeat Erebus yet she can stop her foolish pacifist ideals. Even after suffering stress and insomnia caused by the Red Dragon Empire, she is telling Akihiko to not ally with us as that our methods are unacceptable. Instead, she plans on talking things out with the Erebus Worshippers. Is she even normal?

Sigma: Considering that she had suffered several months of stress and insomnia due to multiple harassing phone calls. I doubt she is thinking straight. If I am her, there is no way I wouldn't ally with the Zero Faction along with Akihiko as that this is the only solution to the issue, unless you find getting harassed as something natural as that is what Erebus Worshippers always do. Actually, I cannot comprehend her actions at all. Rather than hating the Red Dragon Empire who caused her unpleasant experiences, she dislikes our methods of dealing with the enemies? What the hell!?

Setsuna: Maybe she got pissed one time in the middle of her sleep when the Red Dragon Empire called her and then, she fell from her bed and hit her head somewhere.. Perhaps, Akihiko and Dojima should disband the Anti-Erebus Brigade and come join us instead.. They should quit wasting time with the useless...

Yomi: I do not agree. I think they should just kick her out as that the Anti-Erebus Brigade is a sub-division of us meaning she is already a member without realizing. We should just kick her out and supply the Brigade with new members, somebody who thinks right and are more capable.

Sigma: Maybe, we should contact Akihiko and Dojima. A discussion would be necessary. What about Philemon? He did entrust her with a persona?

Yomi: Who cares about Philemon.. He isn't the only one who can awaken persona to begin with? His abilities are only average compared to the other guys.

(The intense discussion of angst and hatred continues in the Yokohama seafood restaurant known as the Pot of Gold. Apparently, a difference of opinion was starting to sprout internal strife within Sigma and Yomi's own group but luckily, they all share a similar view on the issue of the Anti-Erebus Brigade ranks which then in turns enhances unity.)

(Its been a few hours since Jun Lamperouge was led by the two manipulated scientists into the inner sanctuary of the research laboratory.)

Jun Lamperouge: Hurry up!!

Devil Summoner E: Halt! What is going on here?

(A loud explosion had occurred and caused part of the ceiling to collapse onto the devil summoner and a shortcut is opened to the inner sanctuary.)

???: Thought I should give you a hand..

Scientists: Who are you??

???: Kururugi Suzaku of the Shomonkai!

Scientists: Never heard of such a person before..

Jun: Suzaku!? You are still alive??

(Apparently, Suzaku had went to attack the Northern Swallow Empire as requested by the Shomonkai on a recon mission but went missing after a few hours. The Shomonkai had officially carried out his funeral thinking that their honorable knight had died a honorable death but the guy is still alive..)

Jun: Alright, let's go to the inner sanctuary immediately..

(After reaching the inner sanctuary, the two manipulated scientists were immediately killed off by the guardian who was placed to look after the place. Jun and Suzaku had no choice but to fight the guardian with little power they had left..)

???: These petty humans dare challenge the will of Bishamonten. Pitiful but you two will die here and now!

Suzaku: Bishamonten? Is that a joke?? How is this possible??

Jun: I do not believe your words as that the honorable Bishamonten would never such things. Do not slander the name of Bishamonten!

Suzaku: Even if you are Bishamonten, it makes no difference as that you are not the one I look up too. The Bishamonten I know would definitely not be the one standing in front of me and thus, I must crush you..

Bishamonten: Pitiful.. Humans are...

(After a 10-minute intense battle, Bishamonten had easily defeated the two terrorists with little to no injuries. After all, Bishamonten is the Guardian of Buddhist law. It would be unlikely for two mere humans to win against him.)

???: Wait..

Bishamonten: Who the hell are you? Want to taste the will of Bishamonten? I will crush you two if you dare intervene.

???: Metatron, Amaterasu.. Stop him!!!

Metatron: I do not understand why the great Bishamonten is going to kill humans for no reason. It makes little sense.

Amaterasu: How dare you hurt Izanagi-sama out of your lust for war and battles!?

Bishamonten: Izanagi? That replica? You are kidding me..

Amaterasu: That guy is the reincarnation of Izanagi. You better watch what you say of him. If you slander his name, I will kill you without mercy..

Bishamonten: Are you blind? He just a replica of the real guy.. Kurosu Jun is no doubt the reincarnation of Izanagi but not some Lamperouge guy.. However, without Izanami, I cannot blindly believe such a groundless story of yours.

Amaterasu: There is nothing I can prove but it does not matter. Since you done harm to Izanagi-sama, I will crush you immediately.

(Amaterasu was no match against Bishamonten but with the aid of Metatron, the War God was defeated. Amaterasu had also healed Jun Lamperouge and Kururugi Suzaku.)

Jun: Who the hell are you? Why are you helping me??

Suzaku: He must have some sort of motive.. Considering that we are terrorists, there is no reason why he would help us especially those demons he just summoned. Those are gods we worship.. This guy isn't ordinary but he can't be a friend. Otherwise, it wouldn't make any sense..

Jun: Suzaku, had you spent too much time in the Northern Swallow Empire? Don't be paranoid as that the guy just saved our lives. If he had only motive, it would make no sense. Use your head sometimes, not your fists..

Suzaku: I don't get you..

Amaterasu: Izanagi-sama, please stop using the name Jun Lamperouge. You are Izanagi. From now on, I will give you a new name.. You are Lelouch Lamperouge. The only way for you to awaken your powers and memories as Izanagi, you must merge with Kurosu Jun. That way, you will become who you once were..

Metatron: Considering what we are doing right now, would it count as betrayal to the Zero Faction?

???: Nonsense.. With Bishamonten defeated and the scientists dead, who would know what happened here? Now, let us get out of here..

Lelouch: Wait..

Suzaku: Why should we trust you? Your outift is the same thing as those guys who fought against us??

???: Does that mean you would rather fight us here and lose than to trust us and get out of here?

Lelouch: Wait Suzaku..

Suzaku: I knew it!! This guy has ulterior motives.. He just said so himself.. We must crush him immediately!!!

Metatron: What? (Bishamonten wasn't entirely wrong.. Humans are rather foolish.. What do we gain from trickery and defeating them?)

Metatron: As Metatron, I command you to stop your foolish actions..

(Affected by God's voice, Suzaku was unable to fight or concentrate on his inner hatred and malice.)

Lelouch: What is going on here? Are we going to get out or not?

???: That was what I am trying to do but your friend here is trying to cause trouble and stir up mistrust for no particular reason. He must have been consumed by malice while doing his recon mission in the Northern Swallow Empire.

(After a few hours, the small group of individuals made out of the hidden location and back in Ginza, the luxurious shopping district.)

Lelouch: Home sweet home, I am back!!!

Suzaku: You didn't lie.. How is this possible!?

???: I don't understand why the mighty Suzaku would think that way but reality is in front of me. I got to accept it.

Lelouch: Do not blame him.. Suzaku had always been like this due to his experiences in the Self-Defense Force and also because of all those recon missions he had to do. The guy is overly sensitive and would make a fuss over trivial matters.

???: It is good to know that the replica of Izanagi's reincarnation is a man of understanding, unlike Suzaku...

Lelouch: How am I supposed to take back what is rightfully mine without my persona and demon? Red Rider was killed in battle, Sigma did it.. My persona isn't strong enough.

???: I can't help you with your persona but if you need a demon, I will transfer one of mine for you. Take Amaterasu!

Lelouch: Are you serious!?

Suzaku: Don't trust him!! He must have some devious motive.. Why would he give away such a powerful demon for no reason!?

???: Simple. Amaterasu considers Lelouch, your friend as the reincarnation of Izanagi and thus, it is only natural for her to fight alongside you two. More over, it will help awaken your true persona. Magatsu Chronos is not your true persona. Your true persona have yet to awaken..

Suzaku: Lelouch, don't listen to him.. We can beat those guys with out brute force. We can always go back to the SDF and borrow some heavy artillery.. Machine guns will never deceive us, this guy might..

Lelouch: I am starting to get a feeling that my dear friend Suzaku isn't feeling okay.

???: Don't blame Suzaku. He isn't entirely paranoid. After all, I am a member of the Zero Faction and that I also summoned demons make me automatically a devil summoner. How can you guys trust an enemy?

Lelouch: But you just transferred Amaterasu to me?

???: Unfortunately, Suzaku sees it as trickery. It can't be helped.. I might as well walk away. It would be problematic if the guy suspects that I have some sort of devious plans to help you out of the blue.

Suzaku: I don't care what you say. You cannot be trusted. All Zero Faction members are bad guys and you aren't any different. Do not hold it against me, I only trust my instincts and my instincts say you have an ulterior motive. Who are you and what do you want!?

???: I am Kira of the Zero Faction. And I would like to crush the Red Dragon Empire. Aside from that, I also believe that Lelouch, uh..no, I mean Kurosu Jun is the reincarnation of the almighty Izanagi and the fact that Kurosu Jun had done some serious damage against Hitler and his Last Battalion as Joker. It is only an honor for me to lend support when the time is right.. Believe me if you like, don't believe me if you want. Not that it matters and neither do I really care...

Lelouch: Don't know about Suzaku. I believe you. There is no reason why I wouldn't. I had re-obtained my memories of the battle in Xibalba. I was Joker of the Masquerade and we defeated Hitler and his Last Battalion while sacrificing many of my loyal supporters and followers. Although they know that they are only ordinary individuals, yet they lended me support against the impossible. That is why I created Kuro no Kishidan. The Masquerade may have failed what it started but Kuro no Kishidan will do what is right and restore peace and order to the world.

Suzaku: Don't trust him.. As an elite member of Shomonkai, I have the feeling that he is making all of this up. What Xibalba? I have never even heard of the place. Kurosu Jun? Who the hell is that? Don't give me a pack of rubbish... I am a religious individual and my heart is devoted to the one and only Shomonkai. Within Shomonkai ancient context, there is no Xibalba. There is no Izanagi or Amaterasu, quit telling lies!! I won't believe any of this. The Shomonkai only has one "God" and this "God is the creator of the world, not Izanagi or whoever the name is..

Lelouch: Is it just me or is Suzaku actually a member of the Shomonkai religious fanatics? As a former member of Shomonkai, I can almost say that many of the Shomonkai scriptures and ancient texts are rubbish.

Suzaku: What did you just say Lelouch!? *awakens persona* I can feel it. The anger of my persona. Come forth, Magatsu Apollo!!

Kira: Apollo? Don't tell me you are the replica of Tatsuya... I heard rumors of it but this can't be possible. The Northern Swallow Empire only created a prototype replica of one individual and that is the reincarnation of Izanagi which is obviously not you.

Lelouch: Stop it Suzaku!!

(Due to Lelouch's strong resolve of restoring peace and order to the world through the terrorist conquest of Kuro no Kishidan, his persona Magatsu Chronos had transformed into Izanagi which also means that Lelouch is the true reincarnation of Izanagi as opposed to Joker of the Masquerade.)

Lelouch: Izanagi.. Ziodyne!!

Suzaku: Magatsu Apollo.. I will crush everything in sight.. You are a bunch of liars.. There is only one "God" and its the "God" of Shomonkai..

(Unfortunately, due to the kindness of Lelouch's heart as that Suzaku is an old friend of his, he was reluctant to fight him but Suzaku, however has little care to who he battles as long as the individual slanders his "God" and thus, Suzaku had defeated Lelouch Lamperouge.)

Kira: Lelouch, is your resolve that weak? Are you going to die right here? Was all that peace and order you were talking about earlier just crap?? Get a grip of yourself and defeat your opponent in front of you.. This guy is no longer your precious friend, Suzaku but a minion of the Shomonkai "God". He had already lost it. Suzaku can no longer tell the differences between slander and kindness, lies and truth. He is beyond help... Take him down!!

Suzaku: How dare you try to deceive my best friend? I will not let you go.. Magatsu Apollo, Nova Cyther!!

Kira: Lelouch, get back up...

(While too busy encouraging the fallen Lelouch, Suzaku had defeated Kira.)

Kira: No..

(Kira has been killed.)

Suzaku: Nobody can defeat me!! For the Shomonkai, we shall take over this world and spread harmony. Our "God" shall bring salvation to this pitiful world!!!

Lelouch: This can't be..

(As Lelouch's resolve strengthens, his persona Izanagi had evolved into Izanagi no Ookami. Lelouch Lamperouge has finally obtained his ultimate persona.)

Lelouch: With this persona, there is no way I will lose to anyone..

Suzaku: I will knock some sense into you Lelouch.. The Shomonkai is where you belong. Don't be fooled.. Izanagi is not creator, he is a mere demon under the control of Lucifer and Satan sent to deceive you to do terrible things and also slander the great God of the Shomonkai. Thus, I must crush you...

(In the midst of battle, the corpse of Kira had vanished into thin air. Were there spectators that have not revealed themselves? It is not known...)

(Its been a few months since Lelouch Lamperouge had fought against Kururugi Suzaku, a new menace had occurred in the small town of Inaba. The rise of the Red Dragon Mafia is becoming a threat to the safety and well-being of the everyday lives of ordinary civilians. Of course, these individuals are no more than a small division of the evil cult the Red Dragon Empire.)

Yomi: Let's go try out the Pearl Seafood Restaurant for a change..

Sigma: Alright.. Yokohama, here we go!!

(15 minutes later..)

Yomi: I will order some dishes.. You call up Tetsuya and Setsuna..

Sigma: Alright! *calls Tetsuya and Setsuna*

Setsuna: What? I am not eatting at that place.. Its a Red Dragon Empire shop.. You are going to get poisoned but at the same time, its been awhile since I got to flex my SDF muscles.. Writing papers are becoming boring..

Tetsuya: Sure.. I will call up a few other Devil Summoners, just in case..

(1 hour later..)

Yomi: Finally, we can eat some Yokohama food.. Feeling hungry..

*munch, munch*

Yomi: *coughing* This stuff is rotten!!

Setsuna: *broke out in laughters* Didn't I tell you.. Never eat at any of the Yokohama shops.

Yomi: I want to see the manager..

Owner: How dare you kick up a fuss!? Do you have any clue who this shop belongs too? My brother recently killed someone and had a promotion, he is with the mafia. You want to die or something?

Yomi: Huh?

Sigma: Oh.. Here we go again..

Tetsuya: I was just getting tired of paperwork. Looks like we can have some demon battles for a change. Lately, I got tired of working on my Shomonkai gazette. Potato-sama didn't even pay me any money yet I have to praise his policies. How lame...

Setsuna: Since a change of government will most likely occur very soon, I won't be able to have fun killing terrorists in the Indian Ocean. And thus, I will be killing you guys instead. Which mafia did you say you are from again? The Red Dragon Empire?? Isn't that a cult? Since when did your cult gain the mafia status??

Devil Summoner F: Hmm.. I thought I came here for Indian curry. A fight out of the blue?

Devil Summoner G: Indian curry? I was told to come have an anti-Erebus discussion. No way.. Tetsuya, you tricked me again!?

Tetsuya: ....I didn't know it would turn out like this. I was kind to invite you guys over for a meal at a seafood restaurant. How the hell am I to expect a threat from the mafia? After all.. I have been spending the past few months working hard on my Shomonkai gazette. I have no clue what is going on as of lately.

Setsuna: Since I didn't get a chance to beat up some terrorists and Oryo-san, you guys will surely do.

Owner: What? What is it you guys are holding? A DS!?

Devil Summoner F: Its not a DS.. *summons Fornius* The mafia wants to cause trouble. For that matter, we will shall them the kindness of the devil summoners.. *evil laugh*

Owner: I am going to call for reinforcements.. You guys will get butchered.. Then, we will drove you guys off to the organ transplant facility where they will take your organs without freeze, then you guys can just enjoy the burning cremation process. How does that sound? Are you afraid?

Yomi: Noooo..... I don't want to die...

Sigma: I don't like this type of event. Tetsuya, you can handle it.. Seems like you are a veteran when it comes to killing people.

Tetsuya: I have spent quite some time in the SDF fighting terrorists at the sea. The mafia is nothing compared to those guys.. *summons Hyperion*

Setsuna: If this is the type of meal you are guys call for, remember to invite this former SDF member more often. My demon is very hungry.. *summons Python* Devour them Python!!!

(10 minutes later...)

Sigma: Unbelievable.. I think I have lost my appetite before eatting anything. How could this be!? I will never visit Yokohama again.. This place is horrible.. It is all your fault Yomi.. If we had decide to work on that gazette with Setsuna, none of this would have happened. (>_<)

Yomi: But... But... I was hungry.

Setsuna: Python is very full.

Sigma: Stay away from me, Setsuna..

Setsuna: What?

Sigma: I am leaving the place...

Setsuna: What...don't tell me you are actually afraid of the mafia's death threats? You are going to run away? Or are you deciding to take your life before they kill you in the way they claimed?

Sigma: Whatever.. *leaves place*

Yomi: No way... Sigma is such a coward. How can he put up such a fight against the almighty Lelouch Lamperouge yet run away right now like that.. That's rather embarassing.. Speaking of which, I wonder what Lelouch has been doing lately..

Tetsuya: Lelouch must have been preparing for the Comiket. Isn't he planning to cosplay as the Red Justice Ranger? *laugh*

Devil Summoner F: Perhaps, we should continue the discussion elsewhere. As you can see, this place is like in ruins right now. Not just that Setsuna had caused a bloodbath here, even you Tetsuya has burn down the place. Shouldn't we discuss issues like the comiket at a better location?

Tetsuya: Another Sigma? You scared of the mafia coming back to get you?

Devil Summoner F: That's not the point.. You guys dragged us out here to have dinner yet it turned out the way it did.

Tetsuya: And..? Is it a problem? The Red Dragon Empire has been causing trouble for the Shomonkai and the fact that I am one of the leaders for the Shomonkai gazette project generally means that I cannot be afraid of some mafia dudes or the Red Dragon Empire cult members, can I? I am not Sigma who ran away without a fight. He is lame, I am brave and strong. A symbol of justice!

Devil Summoner G: That's it.. I am out of here! *Devil Summoner G leaves*

Devil Summoner F: I agree. The guy must had lost it after working the past few months on the gazette. I am out of here too. *Devil Summoner F retreats*

Setsuna: Good.. We still got Yomi. Hey Yomi..

Yomi: Sigma ran away.. Those two also ran away.. Is this a joke?

Tetsuya: Considering that blood is splattered all over the places and the place is in ruins of fire and rocks, do you see this as a laughing matter?

Yomi: No?

Setsuna: Don't blame us and our SDF.. Its called collective self-defense. The mafia threatened to silence us, butcher us and then cremate us. Thus, we show them the pride of the SDF who fought against terrorists in the sea where we endured days of sunburn, hot temperatures, and also lack of rest and poor quality foods.

Yomi: Does that mean you guys will be showing the other mafia guys who going to show up in awhile as reinforcements the meaning of SDF pride? If not, I am really going to run away... *broke into tears* They are going to butcher me..

Tetsuya: Really? Setsuna's demons will be devouring them before they butcher you. Its SDF pride!

Yomi: Really? Really really??

(And so.. The days of Yokohama battles continue.. Elsewhere, the anti-Erebus Brigade led by Akihiko seems to be getting ready for strategic meeting and discussion.)

(At Peace Diner..)

Maya: Its been a few months since we last meet up with the Zero Faction. So peaceful.. So, are we planning to negotiate with the Red Dragon Empire for a peace treaty and convince them not to revive Erebus? Or will we talk the Shomonkai out of worshipping their "God" as that it is really Belberith, a demon who seeks to destroy humanity..?

Akihiko: (Was it really a good idea to ignore Sigma and the rest? Dojima isn't going to be happy when he sees me not kicking out Maya after witnessing her problematic attitudes.. It is obvious that Maya is unfit to be a part of the anti-Erebus Brigade as that she can't even tell the seriousness of the problems and also the truth behind everything and seems to be living in a dream world. Such a poor girl, I pity her so..)

Maya: Quit spacing out Akihiko! Its so not like you...

Akihiko: (Perhaps, Maya is too scared to accept reality as it is. Maybe, she isn't as strong as Minato thought she was. A strong-willed and independent girl who can take on the world, how lame.. In front of us is a fool who will most likely run away as soon as the Red Dragon Empire cult members make threats of some sort..)

Maya: Earth alert to Akihiko.. Would you stop spacing out!?

Yuki: Hmm... Should we splash some water on his face? Maybe, he fell asleep..

Chihiro: (This obviously isn't the case.. Who can sleep with so many problematic issues to deal with at once!? *sigh* Maya is so adorable, she seems to be dreaming everyday. Yuki on the other hand seems to be having a very good time with Anna.. Rivalz seems to be slacking off as usual while Milly isn't doing much either. Minato seems to be sleeping so much lately. It seems as though nothing fazes him. I can't believe he can actually sleep in times of life and death. Is it courage or simply lack of interest?)

Yuki: Chihiro.. Open your eyes.. You are not spacing out too, are you!?

Akihiko: No.. We are not spacing out. Its just that there are a lot of things to think about. The rising threat of the Red Dragon Empire mafia seems to be quite a concern as that they are going around towns butchering people for the sake of promotions in order to obtain the modded DS enabling the summon of demons. The Red Dragon Empire themselves are up to no good as always, plotting trouble as always. The Shomonkai seems to dislike us as well as that some of the extremists within their religious organization are out to kill people for the ideals of pro-freedom and pro-justice. They had previously placed a bounty on Maya's head, as well as Minato's but it was called off as that we backed down on our stances.

Chihiro: Oh that.. It was just a rumor. Word on the street had said there were bounties on your heads by the extremists' faction of the Shomonkai but at the same time, word on the street also said there will be a FFVII remake for the next generation console, is there one?

Maya: Huh? When was that? *shivers in fear* What did I do!? I am innocent. I didn't do anything wrong.. *broke into tears*

Yuki: Be strong Maya! How can you deal with these troublemakers if you are that weak? This is exactly what they want to see.. They want you to become scared, back down, get stressed out and maybe kill yourself. You won't do that right, Maya?

Maya: No.. Why would I do that? I haven't gone to visit Philemon yet..

Akihiko: *facepalm* She has no clue what we are talking about even after all this. Forget it.. I am going to let Dojima-san decide..

Yuki: No.. Don't you dare kick out Maya!? Otherwise, I will kill you...

Anna: Wait.. What is your relationship with Maya!?

(At that very instant, Yuki's persona had awakened and became very angry. Strangely, Lelouch Lamperouge over in Osaka seems to have his persona awakened at the same exact timing...)



Lelouch: (Izanagi no Okami is very angry.. Is it Yuki-nee? She is Izanami!? Whoever it is that is making Yuki-nee angry will face the wrath of the great Jun..uh..the almighty Lelouch Lamperouge! Izanagi no Okami will make them regret it!!!)

Yuki: (What is this feeling? Jun.. Kurosu Jun, is that you? No wait.. This isn't Jun.. This is.. What is this feeling? It feels as though my anger is equal with another whose persona has awakened.. But who is it? I am sure my persona powers were once transferred to Kurosu Jun and nobody else.. How is this possible!?)

Akihiko: Chill out Yuki.. Nobody is going to kick out Maya? Don't give me that look.. However, me and Dojima-san will be leaving this brigade. Anybody want to join us is their choice..

Chihiro: What!?

Akihiko: Minato can lead you guys while half-sleeping.. Me and Dojima cannot afford to fight so many enemies with a pacifist attitude that Maya is keep on annoying us with. Why the hell are we putting a handicap on ourselves when the enemies are much more powerful? Makes no sense..

Maya: Akihiko!? How could you...? I thought we were going to fight the Shomonkai together?

Akihiko: Actually, I always had plans to join up Tetsuya's team against the Red Dragon Empire the right way.. Your methods is pretty much suicidal.. In fact, there is no point in talking to somebody who keeps on dreaming..

Chihiro: It is obvious that the Red Dragon Empire and Shomonkai are making a serious deal out of things. It is no joking matter.. You may be able to ignore everything and sleep like a log but we can't.. Strangely, they are pretty much doing the same thing to you too yet you seem pretty chill about it.. I cannot comprehend that attitude of yours. I am leaving..

(A disagreement breaks out midway into the anti-Erebus Brigade's discussion of strategic planning. It appears that half of the members are getting stressed out dealing with the Red Dragon Empire and the Shomonkai while the others seem to deny reality and ignore everything like nothing matters.)

(Its been two days since the incident in which Sigma and his crew ended up in a bloody battle. Things seem to be taking a turn for the good as that things which occurred in Yokohama has no effect with things occurring in Tokyo. A different crew of Zero Faction members are establishing ties with the underworld to expel the evil cults which seek world domination through the aid of demons.)

Kouji: After hearing what happened with Tetsuya and Setsuna, I thought we should get some things done the right way..

Kuroda: That's right.. We are going to go meet up with the popular Godoh-san that everybody in Roppongi knows of. The guy is well-known for a man of pride and honor. I am sure we can negotiate with him and his clan.

Kazuma: Let's talk in a more intellectual way..

Kouji: Hope my editor won't find out about this. It would suck if I am caught socializing with the yakuza in broad daylight but this is necessary.

(The three devil summoners arrive at a beautiful building in the Roppongi district. Inside the place, they are greeted by the Godoh clan, a well-known yakuza group that values pride and honor and it is also rumored that their kumicho Daisuke isn't very happy about the invasion of foreign mafia in his turf stealing all his businesses.)

Kouji: Please to meet you Godoh-san.. These two are my associates, Kuroda and Kazuma, they are elite devil summoners capable of causing havoc anytime at any military base all alone. I can pretty much do the same.

(The two devil summoners quickly bow to the yakuza boss.)

Daisuke: There is no need to be so formal. Since you guys came all the way here, you are my guests and we should offer you good hospitality as hosts.

Kuroda: Thanks. However, I think we should first discuss some serious businesses first before we get all buddy-buddy and have a nice time hanging out.

Daisuke: Oh.. I have heard. You guys are out there to prevent the revival of Erebus, an evil entity tainted with malice? I also heard from my informants that those guys even have their own mafia group that is stealing all our businesses, especially in Kabukicho and downtown Ginza. It is such a problem that we are losing money. Many of my fellow subordinates have to go as far as working part-time to hold our group together. It is such an embarassment...

Kouji: That is not your fault Godoh-san.. As you may have already learned, 85% of the drugs in Tokyo are being sold and imported by this Red Dragon Empire mafia, while the other 10% came from the Middle East by some minor terrorist groups which they used as fundings for their FLEIA warheads targetting Fifth Jerusalem. The remaining 5% are domestically produced. This is definitely not a good sign!!

Kazuma: Have we forgotten about the case with the frozen gyoza? For something so cheap yet they had to add toxicating ingredients into it, poisoning our fellow countrymen forcing them into hospitalization. When our government decide to took action and the authorities met the Red Dragon Empire cult leaders, the end result was that they shake hands and act buddy-buddy only to be tricked and ignored the following week. What happens if the imported drugs in Tokyo end up as tragedies involving fake and toxicating ingredients?

Kuroda: People smoke cannabis to relieve stress caused by the poor economy. What happens if they ended up smoking toxicating substances unknowningly? And what if these poor individuals, your loyal customers had bought it from your clan or off your turf? Would that be a disgrace to the name of the Godoh clan?

Daisuke: You see.. It is our turf but I have nothing to do with it.. Its the rival group led by Ryoma that is dealing with the foreigners with mostly imported cannabis. Apparently, Ryoma had adopted a daughter, a foreigner known as Risa-chan who took a severe wound in his place which brought their relationship closer and the girl got promoted to kumicho. That girl seems to be good friends with the Red Dragon Empire and is in-charge of the 85% drug imports you spoke of..

Kazuma: It seems that their routes are from two or possibly two locations.. The Britannia of Europe and also the Holy Britannia of the Northern lands. If our devil summoners launch an offensive on their cargo routes, it should do you some good. However, before we do anything. Godoh-san, you should strategically plan some domestic growth of cannabis. I doubt the economy is going to turn good anytime soon.

Daisuke: It would seem so.. However, we can't produce drugs out of the blue. That is the reason why those imports are very important. Tokyo is only capable of producing 5% of the demands. Most stressed out individuals will be angry at both the Zero Faction and our Godoh clan if you guys were to take sudden action. Instead, we should look at this more calm and spend more time strategically planning.

Kuroda: Perhaps, your Godoh clan can make friends with other foreign mafia that isn't associated with the Red Dragon Empire. Your sense of pride and honor will no doubt attract many allies, unlike those who seek to revive the God of Malice.

Kouji: As a reporter, I can also keep an eye for some good deals and routes but don't expect any valuable information anytime soon as that it is quite problematic if my colleagues or editor sees me walking around a group of yakuza on the streets.

Kuroda: That is why we are here.. I can handle it.

Kazuma: No problem, I am in.

Daisuke: Perhaps, we really should work things out. I hate it when the Red Dragon Empire cult believers coming onto my turf then act like they own everything. First, they spread propaganda and receive tons of followers for their ridiculous cult and now, they stole all our business leaving us with part-time jobs and welfare benefits. This makes me very angry yet... Damn!

Kuroda: Godoh-san, it is not healthy to be angry all the time. Let's make plans for a better future. A future of change!

(Seemingly, Kouji seems to be a very successful negotiator. With the aid of Kuroda and Kazuma, the alliance with the Godoh clan seems to work out smoothly. Elsewhere, things are just getting stirred up with other issues.)

(Over in Osaka, it appears that the Godoh clan seems to have a separate division operating to help those who are hit hard by the downfall of the economy. Unfortunately, the group seems to be having frequent conflicts with Holy Britannia's well-known Shomonkai.)

Delinquent A: Damn!! Those Shomonkai are harassing me again.. I can't believe it!

Delinquent B: They are now talking about some sort of commandments shit. "Thou shall not breath in the air without our "God's" permission!". What the hell...

Devil Summoner J: The Shomonkai are always like that. Running around promoting their idealistic justice and righteousness to the point that it is purely hypocrisy. Who needs them and their "God" anyways!?

Delinquent A: Who the hell are you!?

Delinquent B: That outfit looks pretty cool.. Are you one of the cosplayers at C76??

Devil Summoner J: Sorry to disappoint you but no.. I am a devil summoner, one of those troublemakers who cause havoc to these evil cults that have been annoying the hell out of people everyday preaching some random crap as usual.

(While the three guys are having a friendly chit-chat, they are approach by a leader of the Shomonkai..)

Shomonkai Cardinal: Would you guys like to join the Shomonkai? Regardless of the sins you have committed against our "God" and religion, they shall be forgiven if you bow down to the Shomonkai in goodwill. We shall bring salvation into this pitiful *cough* poor world. I am Tibbits of the great and holy Shomonkai. Please to meet you all!!

Delinquent A: Don't give me that crap..

Delinquent B: Salvation? What the hell are you talking about!? Is there going to be apocalypse now??

Cardinal Tibbits: Yes, there is going to be an apocalypse if we don't gather enough members before the judgement day arrives. The world shall enter a bright day of FLEIA warheads as that is the ordeal of our "God" written in our most trustworthy and ancient prophecies.

Devil Summoner J: In that case, I should greet you too. I am Kazuki, one of the senior members of the Godoh clan and I am also a devil summoner for your information.

Cardinal Tibbits: A devil summoner!? Begone your evil entity.. Begone Satan!! I must quickly perform the cleansing ritual, just in case I get tainted by your evil aura..

(Cardinal Tibbits quickly chant "In the name of divinity, the justice of the holy lands please bless the soul of Enola with the powers of an anti-demon barrier. God, be with me please!!")

(A shiny dark purple aura instantly appears surrounding the Cardinal.)

Cardinal Tibbits: Metatron has acknowledged me. I am now protected by the aura of divinity.

Delinquent A: Oh shit.. That guy isn't human.. What's up with the sudden dark purple aura!?

Delinquent B: The Cardinal is evil... I am out of here.

(The two delinquents ran as quickly as their legs could allow them to.)

Kazuki: This doesn't look good. So, the rumors are true.. The Shomonkai are blessed a powerful demon they worship. I better communicate with my fellow comrades. This could be serious...

(Kazuki leaves the location, quicking taking a bus heading for the local headquarters.)

(While Kouji and his devil summoner buddies visited the Godoh-kai in Roppongi Hills, the Red Dragon Empire's mafia division also went to have a secret meeting with the Ryoma-kai in Shinjuku.)

Ryoma: Welcome..

Foreign Mafia Leader: I took a plane to come all the way here to discuss our business partnership. We take this very seriously and value good relations.

Ryoma: Of course..

Kumicho A: Hey dude.. I never like that attitude of yours since the first time we met. Concerning the ongoing food terror rumors of the frozen gyoza incident, how can we trust that you are providing us with genuine drug imports!?

Foreign Delinquent A: How dare you..!?

Foreign Mafia Leader: Stop..

Foreign Delinquent A: Yes, boss..

Foreign Mafia Leader: We from the Red Dragon Empire value long-term good relations, especially when it comes to business. Just because some country bumpkins committed food terror does not mean that our mafia group functions the same way. I can promise you that the drugs you bought from us are of high quality, no lies..

Kumicho A: That's what the gyoza makers said awhile back too. They promised and ensured strict quality control and guess what.. Our countrymen fallen ill. Although an international investigation was prompted yet in the end, nothing was revealed as that your cult seems to cover it up pretty good. What shall our Ryoma-kai do if the drugs we sell on our turf happen to cause fatalities? Not just that we will lose our loyal customers, it will also stain the name of the Ryoma-kai!

Ryoma: Dude, can you provide the 85% drugs on the Tokyo market right now? If you can't, I hope you shouldn't be making an enemy of our long-term business partner here. Sour ties over food terror is the last thing I want to see..

Kumicho A: ....Damn!

Foreign Mafia Leader: Do not worry.. To ensure strict quality control, I will sent two of my most loyal and trustworthy subordinates over here. One has a master degree in business and a bachelor's degree in physics. Another has a ph.d. degree in chemistry and also did pretty good in business and finance. You can trust them..

Foreign Delinquent A: Those guys just graduated at the world's most famed universities. Not just that their academic abilities excel at a top notch, they are also very well-versed in doing business and producing drugs. If the Red Dragon Empire and the Ryoma-kai team up, there is no doubt that all of Tokyo's underground businesses will be ours to keep.

Ryoma: Sounds just about right.. However, may I ask that you guys do something about those annoying subordinates of yours who are planning and organizing a Senkaku invasion?

Foreign Mafia Leader: Oh, that? I already ordered them to call off the Senkaku invasion. If you want more assurances, we can always sent some guys and beat up those punks. Our business relations is most important.

Ryoma: Sounds good.. Hope our business will be everlasting...

Foreign Delinquent A: Actually, there seems to be a problem. There is this full-time reporter named Kouji who has been sniffing around Shinjuku. It seems that he is a close associate of the Godoh-kai and is looking for trouble. Can you guys get rid of him?

Ryoma: I will leave that to Risa-chan.. She can deal with trivial matters.

(The next day after two special meetings occurring in two different locations, Kouji has been checking out information on foreign mafia and the stuff they offer. He seems to have come up with the idea of getting the Godoh-kai to ally with the Mexicans, as well as the Blacks but a slight problem occurs..)

Kouji: !? (Shit.. It seems that I am being stalked.. There appears to be two large black vehicles following me. I better head for the alleyway and call Tetsuya and Setsuna for backup.)

(Unfortunately, Kouji walks right into a trap set by the Ryoma-kai. He gets corned by a couple of knives and a handgun.)

Yakuza A: Looks like it is end of the line for you pal..

Yakuza B: Out of so many places to run away, you just had to pick a trap. How lame..

Yakuza C: It is too late to turn back. You are not cornered. There are more than 10 of us here in this place. Just look around...

Kouji: (Let's hope the demon I made a contract with works.. I should have tested it before. Now, its all too late...) I am not just any reporter, I am a member of the Zero Faction, a devil summoner. Come forth, Take-Minakata!!

(5 minutes later..)

Kouji: *collapses to the ground vomitting* What have I just done!? The demon attacked and killed everyone. Oh no.. I have become a murderer. This is so wrong...

Kouji: *dials the wrong number and calls Yomi* Tetsuya, help me.. I just killed some people.

Yomi: What? Who are you?? What did you just do again?? Tetsuya? The guy I argued with a few weeks ago over some national security issues is not here. Call elsewhere.. I am not getting involved with some murderer.

Kouji: Wait.. Yomi.. Its me.. Kouji..

Yomi: Koshii? Of the Shomonkai?? Damn you, making harassing phone calls again. *hangs up* (Yomi blocks the number on her advanced mobile phone.)

Kouji: ... (No, she cut the line on me.. How could this be!?)

Kouji: (Oh wait.. Why does Yomi have Tetsuya's mobile? I must had dialled the wrong number. Better check and call again..)

Kouji: Tetsuya?

Tetsuya: Hey Kouji.. Looking for mafia lately? I am too busy working on this gazette of mine. I won't be able to help you but as a good friend, what happened? You sound like you are having a panic.

Kouji: Listen.. I was ambushed by the Ryoma-kai, they cornered me and I summoned a demon which slaughtered all of them in cold blood. This entire place looks like a mess right now. Its as if I just became a murderer..

Tetsuya: And why are you afraid? How many did you kill?

Kouji: About 7-8 guys armed with knives and one with a gun..

Tetsuya: Well... Congratulations! Setsuna has a kill count of over 100 by now. Half the number had something to do with the sea pirates in South Africa though.. *chuckles*

Kouji: No, wait.. I am serious. This is no joke!

Tetsuya: Neither am I. You are cornered by the yakuza and your demon killed them. Thus, there is no problems at all. Your life is now safe and all you got to do is get out of there, wash your face and go to sleep. Now, leave me alone.. I got to work up some promotional posters for Potato-sama and his Shomonkai. *hangs up*

Kouji: Huh..? (Why is he taking it like a laughing matter? So, his promotional posters are more important the life of an old friend and colleague.. How sad..)

(Kouji leaves the bloody location back to Shibuya.)

(Things happen at a speedy rate all over Japan, especially when devil summoners are having a long-term conflict with two cults. Over in Osaka, it appears that Kuroda had managed to recruit some new members.)

Kuroda: *calls Godoh Daisuke* Godoh-san, I just recruited some young men who are capable of supernatural abilities, as well as demon summoning. I thought I should sent them to protect you just in case those Ryoma dudes and the foreign mafia try to cause trouble at your turf.

Lelouch: Kuroda-san, you can count on me.. I wield the Cursed Eyes of Manipulation along with the aid of Amaterasu and also my great persona, the legendary Izanagi no Okami. Nobody can get near Godoh-sama when I am around.

Kuroda: Quiet down kid.. I am talking on the phone with Godoh-san. Sorry 'bout that Godoh-san, the kid is a freelancer. He paid me money to join my cause since I am well-known around these areas.

Daisuke: Sounds good.. How many are coming over? Just one..?

Kuroda: Yes, Lelouch Lamperouge has the strength of a 100 men. You won't need other bodyguards once he arrives at Roppongi Hills. I will continue my recon mission and gather people to fight the evil Red Dragon Empire.

Daisuke: Alright, everything seems to be going smoothly..

(The conversation ends over the phone lines. Kuroda heads out on his recon mission into other parts of Tokyo, primarily Ginza and Akihabara. Lelouch Lamperouge, on the other hand plans to head over to check up on his Yuki-nee in Inaba before doing a full-time bodyguard job in the Roppongi Hills.)

(Several weeks have passed and a change of government has occurred in Japan. Hope and disappointment are occurring all over the places. Some are really happy, while others are very worried. Apparently, the new government is somewhat unorganized as that it is formed by at least four different groups of people who either share similar beliefs or are in total disagreements. Nonetheless, the change of government ensures that the Shomonkai will not be able to execute the Tokyo Lockdown plan involving trapping everyone inside the Yamanote Circle on a specific day as means to invoke a large EM field to wipe out all members of both the Shomonkai Zealots and also the Red Dragon Empire. However, things are still not what it seems...)

(At Peace Diner in Aoba, a group of devil summoners are holding a discussion.)

Tetsuya: It seems that this new government is somewhat suspicious as that they haven't made any solid plans for foreign policy and national security. Considering that they hate the Shomonkai, would there be a possibility in which the new government allies with the Red Dragon Empire?

Setsuna: This possibility cannot be eliminated. However, you cannot forget that the founders of the winning political party are former hawkish members of the old coalition government. They left due to disagreements and conflicts, not due to difference of policies and beliefs.

Sigma: That certainly is the case. However, how will these guys manage to negotiate and compromise with the left-wing activists, the socialists, and also independent thinkers? Are their election promises too difficult to carry out? On the contrary, supporting them and giving them a chance to take reins is a great idea as that the old coalition forces are doing so poorly a standard A.I. robot would do a better job.

Scientist A: Maybe, we should just change all these aces of the old coalition forces with our new model androids. They may have done a much better job.. Oh wait, what will happen if the battery dies out midway into the election campaigns?

Tetsuya: Now is not the time to laugh as that things are getting pretty interesting. Although my gazette was not successful of backing the old coalition forces but now is the time to act as neutral believers.. If the new government does a poor job or tries to ally with the Red Dragon Empire, we should strike them down at once with no mercy.

Sigma: Sounds like a brilliant idea!

Setsuna: Supposedly, its not such a bad idea to make more allies but unfortunately.. Not just that they seek to revive the manifestation of malice, Erebus..an evil entity. They are also seeking many unreasonable demands and requests of us. It feel as though they would only be satisifed if our country becomes their colony but obviously, that is unacceptable and cannot be tolerated.

Sigma: What do you think Seldous?

Seldous: I cannot understand why people would like to kill each other when everyone only desires peace, world peace? Am I not correct?

(A few members of the Red Dragon Empire happen to be eatting at Peace Diner and overheard the conversation. One of the leaders approaches the devil summoners...)

Cult Leader: Do you just say peace?

Seldous: !?

Cult Leader: Who would like to enjoy peace? Is that a joke? I do not find it funny.. Most people nowadays do not seek to have peace and do not wish for world peace. Only foolish idealists such as yourself seeks for something so absurd and useless. With peace, there will be a lack of spirit and energy in people as that everybody will try to enjoy their lives everyday without the belief in striking down enemies and crushing nations to expand territory and obtain resources. Peace? *laugh*

Seldous: How could...!?

Cult Leader: Young man, you seem to have silver hair yet you think like a child.. Both our Red Dragon Empire and the neo-con Shomonkai seeks war and conflicts as that it is a method to be lively, energetic and also a way to boost our economies. People who thinks of peace and world peace tend to live in a dream world. *broke out in laughter*

Tetsuya: Would you please kindly leave us alone as that we are trying to enjoy this Peace Burger? Speaking of which, since you love war so much.. Why do you eat at Peace Diner? Why don't you go across the street and enjoy your Angry Burger set instead? Those guys over there seem to love war and conflicts. In fact, you even get to shout to the bottom of your lungs to voice your anger and get a discount. Now, get the hell out of here!!

Cult Leader: You little man seem to have guts? How dare you talk back to the great Grand Cardinal of the Red Dragon Empire!? I have you crushed and buried at the Tokyo Bay..

Sigma: Not again... Why can't we ever enjoy a peaceful meal?

Setsuna: Grand Carnival? What is that..?

Cult Leader: You will pay that.. Guys burn this Peace Diner after wrecking the place! Immediately..

Cult Member A: Let's torch this place!!

Cult Member B: I will destroy all the chairs and tables. Peace? That's what you get for asking the unreasonable..

(As soon as the cult members start vandalizing the restaurant, most of the guests in the place decide to head for the exit in a panic and shock. The employees are scared stiff while the manager couldn't do anything as that the attackers are members of the Red Dragon Empire which both the old government and new government seem to fear a great deal.)

Seldous: Enough! You call yourself the Grand Cardinal yet your actions are the equivalent of that...a mafia?

Grand Cardinal: And...you got a problem?

Setsuna: Before you torch anything, my demons will be having a feast..

Seldous: Stop! Tetsuya.. Control Setsuna's attitudes.. The only solution to a conflict should not be a loop of hatred and malice. We should talk things out..

Grand Cardinal: Sure.. After we torch this place..

Tetsuya: Out of my way Seldous.. You are too weak, get out of here.. I will deal with the problem my way, the pride of the Self-Defense Force!

Setsuna: Sounds just about right.. Let's slaughter them all!!!

Grand Cardinal: The two of you will have an early death for picking a fight with the Grand Cardinal.. Those two guys aren't regular members.. They are elites who each have more than a hundred kill counts.

Sigma: It seems you guys are finally showing your true colors. The colors of murderers. Perhaps, I should put an end to your cult after all.

Grand Cardinal: Behold the power of the Red Dragon Empire.. *summons Kohryu* This dragon of mine had even caused trouble for that Serph dude once.. It is enough to kill all of you..

Sigma: Why did he summon a lizard out of the blue?

Tetsuya: That's not a lizard.. That's some trouble.. *summons Omitsunu* This might not be enough. I am going to summon another one.. *summons Koumokuten* Time for a bloody fight!

Setsuna: I guess I should take out those two annoying elites of theirs. Come forth, Uriel!!

Sigma: I will back you Setsuna.. *summons Jikokuten*

(Upon seeing all the demon summons.. The two elite cult members approaches)

Cult Member A: Have you guys even wonder why we have such high kill counts?

Cult Member B: We are avatar tuners..

(Cult Member A transforms into Turdak. Cult Member B transforms into Preta.)

(Amidst the start of the fierce battle between both sides, Seldous cowardly walk away. He ran out of the Peace Diner and head for the park to breath some fresh air.)

Seldous: (Why do people always seek to kill each other when we can just sort things out in an amicable manners? I cannot comprehend such a situation.. The loop of hatred will always lead to more hatred and thus, it is best to avoid and stop.)

Cult Member C: You are not getting away..

(Cult Member C transforms into Rakshasa.)

Seldous: No.. I must get away from here.

(Seldous ran into an ambush.)

Cult Member D: Looks like we got all 4 of them in one swipe.

Cult Member E: You will be joining your friends very quickly..

(Both cult members transforms into trolls.)

Troll A: You are now cornered.

Troll B: How foolish.. We will devour you now..

Rakshasa: Do not worry.. You will not die alone.. Those three will most likely be waiting for you at the River Styx. There is no way they can win against our Great Grand Cardinal.

(A mysterious lady appeared out of no where.)

???: What is going on here?

Dojima: Don't tell me this has something to do with Tetsuya..

Maya: Dojima.. Do you know these guys?

Dojima: I have no clue. The demons seem to be avatar tuners from the Red Dragon Empire while the guy with the silver hair doesn't seem to be wearing the Zero Faction uniform but then again, I don't recall anybody wearing it either..

Maya: Those demons look weak.. Maybe, we should just defeat them.

Dojima: Perhaps, its time to win some macca.

Seldous: Wait.. This isn't right.. Why are we fighting over the issue of world peace at the Peace Diner!?

Troll A: Boss had already explained it. We don't want peace.. We want war. We want to kill you all!!

Maya: ??? (I think I just misheard it..)

Dojima: Most unfortunately, I cannot use persona abilities. I guess I will have to rely on this modded DS.

(Dojima presses the buttons randomly and a demon appeared..)

Dojima: Attack those demons..

Power: You petty human being dare seek my powers? I will kill you now!!

Dojima: What's with this? I summoned you.

Maya: Oh no.. Dojima-san summoned a monster!?

Dojima: No, this couldn't be.. I must had pressed a wrong button. Where's my manual? Damn.. It must had been Adachi.. The guy must had stolen it..

(Dojima ended up fighting Power one-on-one with just a handgun while Maya approaches the avatar tuners.)

Troll A: Oh.. You must be that girl who wants to bow down to our Red Dragon Empire? Now, to prove your loyalty.. Kill this individual here!!

Troll B: Yes, kill him and we will provide you some macca. Don't you want to buy some demon goods. The Red Dragon Empire also uses the unique currency of macca. How about it?

Rakshasa: Not just that you will gain our approval, you will also earn some macca. Help us out..

Seldous: What? A persona-user..!?

Maya: I will not listen to anybody. I will do whatever I think is right. *activates persona* Before I changed my surname to Mochizuki and became a sister to the troublesome demon tamer, I was better known as Amano Maya. Come forth, Maia Custom!

Seldous: (Now is the opportunity to run away..)

(As soon as Maya start to fight two trolls and the Rakshasa, Seldous ran away..)

Dojima: Help.. This demon is too much for me..

(Dojima was on the verge of defeat and thus, Seldous lends a hand.)

Seldous: *activates persona*

(In a split second, Thanatos has killed Power giving Dojima the powers as a demon tamer. Soon afterwards, he ran back to the Peace Diner..)

(Elsewhere in Japan, more specifically over in Shibuya.. A ruckus has occurred. Seemingly, Mochizuki Mari and the Shibuya Daemons are in a conflict.)

Shibuya Daemon A: I can't believe it..

Shibuya Daemon B: How could Kaido ask us to escort this rude lady back to her workplace when she just insulted our great leader!?

Mari: Aren't you guys Kaido's minions? Now, escort me back to Tokyo.. Kaido is going to be angry if you guys let me get beaten up by the Red Dragon Empire and Shomonkai!?

Shibuya Daemon C: Did you just call the new prime minister an alien!?

Mari: Yes and so what? The guy looks stiff and he looks just like my old professor who failed my course. I am so angry just seeing that curly hair of his..

Shibuya Daemons: Since you insulted the new prime minister we supported, you might as well go deal with those Red Dragon Empire goons by yourself. We are ditching you here. Besides, you can just summon your buddy Kresnik to do with the matters as that he is so much stronger than all of us..

(Shibuya Daemons ran away..)

Mari: (How could this be!? I only said what I felt.. Its not like I said the wrong things.)

(Kudlak appears along with his new Red Dragon Empire goons.)

Kudlak: Oh.. Look what we have here.. Its Kresnik and the poor demon tamer..

Cult Member A: Do you want to join us? Just abandon Kresnik..

Cult Member B: Join us.. We will share some macca with you.. Give me a price..

Mari: What are you talking about? Mr. Kresnik is a good person, I will help him against you evil Kudlak.. It is your fault that Kaido is being so angry nowadays..

Kudlak: You don't have a clue what you are talking about as that don't you feel that you are way outnumbered here. All we got in the Red Dragon Empire are numbers both representing lots of macca and lots of people. You are outmatched!

???: Says who..

Kudlak: Says me..the great Kudlak!

Kresnik: I do not think you can do anything. At my full power, I will kill you, then those cult zealots can follow..

Kudlak: Attack them immediately..

(Yomi appears out of nowhere with Akihiko and Seldous who they met on his way to Peace Diner.)

Akihiko: Thought I should go for a nap.. It was so exhausting beating up that Carnival guy..

Yomi: Now, we can beat up some demons.. How nice..

Seldous: I am getting tired of all these troublemakers but I guess it can't be helped.. If you do not smash the enemies, they smash you. Might as well kill them all. *activates Thanatos*

Yomi: Nice.. We can finally have more fun. *summons Dark Alice* Let's play a game! Alice will be killing all of you..

Akihiko: !? (Why do we have to fight alongside Yomi.. She is so evil..)

Seldous: Looking at your expression, I think I share a similar feeling but it doesn't matter who fights alongside us nowadays. They can be purely evil if they want as long as they are willing to fight the Red Dragon Empire without fear or cause too much trouble. Whether they be demons, murderers, or terrorists.. Its all good. Let's not be picky when choosing allies as long as they don't betray us or side with the enemies.

Akihiko: That's a very good point. Evil or not, good or not, let's focus on getting rid of Kudlak and his Red Dragon Empire minions.. Honestly, even if Mochizuki-san isn't Maya's sister, we would still have stepped in as that our enemies are here. *activates persona*

Yomi: Let's have some fun.. I learn all of this from my buddy Tetsuya, he says that this is the spirit of the SDF. Never let your enemies who intimidate you get away alive..

Akihiko: I am getting a little worried.. Well, whatever.. Caesar attack!

Seldous: *shrugs* (I really don't like this idea but it seems that this cannot be helped. If it must get done, then it should be done. Rather than letting the Shibuya Daemons and Kudlak fight it out their way, it is best to do things our way as to prevent them from causing unnecessary trouble and problems.)

Akihiko: I feel as though I am a psychic. Perhaps, we are thinking the same thing. Let's just focus on saving Mochizuki-san and crush these problematic individuals for once.

(The battle follows...)

(Over at the Iwatodai Dorm, Minato has finally woke up from a few days of sleep. It was more like a bad dream involving a yellow butterfly.)

Chihiro: Morning..

Minato: ... (Was that Philemon?)

Chihiro: What's wrong?

Minato: I dreamed of a butterfly, a yellow one.. It was very realistic that it didn't seem like a dream.

Chihiro: What happened in your dream?

Minato: I saw a vision.. It feels as though Philemon was giving me that dream that states an ordeal is awaiting.. What kind of ordeal is it? I cannot tell..

Chihiro: An ordeal? Can you be more specific?

Minato: Every time the yellow butterfly flies by the land, it gets struck with famine and plague. The plague seems to be a bit strange..

Chihiro: A plague? Strange?

Minato: I wonder if I can find Philemon at the Shrine.. I am very interested in this plague. In my dream, lots of people are dead and it appears that there is no cure for this new plague. Who is spreading it and for what purpose?

Chihiro: I think I know who is behind it.. Akihiko can pretty much explain it to you as opposed to asking Philemon.

Minato: Huh?

Chihiro: While you were having your nice dream and sleeping past days of battles elsewhere, lots of things have happened. This plague is no ordeal but more of a natural thing.

Minato: I don't understand you. However, I think it would be best to head for a local pharmacy, more specifically Tadashi Satomi's Pharmacy and buy lots of supplies.

Chihiro: I already did. Akihiko says that some explosion will be deployed in a few weeks from now and that there will be more than...what number was it again? by this winter. Tadashi Satomi is planning to stock up on some supplies of better quality in 2 weeks. Let's go visit then..

Minato: Its a good thing we live so close to Tadashi Satomi's Pharmacy, a store we can truly rely on.

Rivalz: Hello? Was I being ignored this entire time??

Minato: Oh.. Rivalz, when did you came here?

Rivalz: I was here the entire time. I was resting on the sofa as usual. You guys did that on purpose did you..!?

Chihiro: Maybe, maybe not..

Rivalz: How dare you!?

Minato: Like the saying goes.. Quit being a sore loser! We don't need your approval to do whatever we like..

Rivalz: Quit copying Gunnar.. That guy is becoming a bad influence around here!

Minato: Whatever.. Dare you to say that to Gunnar.. He is going to smash that huge sword of his into you.. *laugh*

Chihiro: That's funny.. *giggles*

(That events continue on..)

Next update in a few days when I get farther into the games.

It will be on Nocturne and DDS..

~Preview~

(Somewhere in First Kalpa, a tomb had exploded and out comes an avatar tuner. It appears that the avatar tuner is clueless as to why he ended up in a mysterious location as opposed to eatting gyoza at the church with his most admired Grand Cardinal. There also happens to be other guests in the First Kalpa...)

(After lighting the Candelabrum of Foundation, Hitoshura was granted access to the First Kalpa in the Labyrinth of Amala. While traveling in the First Kalpa, he comes across a room in which two tombs reside and the place looked rather strange.)

Hitoshura: (These tombs are....!?)

(On the left, it is the tomb of Forneus. And on the right, it is the Troll.)

Hitoshura: (Why are these tombs here?)

(Upon leaving the suspicious room, a loud explosion was heard and it appears that the right tomb had exploded. A mysterious humanoid was found standing in the cloudy room of smoke.)

???: Where am I?

Hitoshura: !?

???: What am I doing here?

Hitoshura: A human?

???: Who are you....? Wait, you look like a demon!?

Hitoshura: I was originally human and have only turned into this appearance after consuming a creature known as the magatama.

???: That's right!! I remember...

Hitoshura: Huh?

???: I was hanging out with my most admired brother.. Ouch!! (This headache..)

Hitoshura: What are you talking about? Last I saw you..

???: Last time I saw him, my beloved grand cardinal.. We were at the church..

Hitoshura: That doesn't sound right.. Weren't you guarding the treasures of Loki in Ginza?

???: Ginza? No clue what you are talking about.. I was at Kobe's most famous church called the... Damn, this headache is killing me..

Hitoshura: Slow down.. What were you doing at the church with this bland cardinal?

???: Hold your tongue! Its Grand Cardinal Ray to you.. He was treating me to some delicious imported gyoza he bought while at Junes on the grand opening day. There were multiple brands and flavors, all delicious and absolutely incredible! Ray-san was a very nice man to have bought so many types to treat me but.. Everything seem to have....went blank afterwards. This headache..

???: No, what's happening to me...!?

(The mysterious individual who seems to be wearing a Bishop outfit of the Erebus Cult had suddenly went berserk and transformed into a Troll.)

Troll: What's happened to me!? After eatting those gyoza, I felt a sudden sickening stomach and the next thing, I changed.. I became very hungry. This is not supposed to be happening.. There is no way the Grand Cardinal would do something like this. It got to be the work of Junes...

Hitoshura: Can't you change back? If I am not mistaken, that power you possess is avatar tuning. You should be able to change back, especially that you are still conscious and haven't been consumed by hunger.

Troll: The foxes.. I remember Ray talking about something like chasing the foxes.. What is going on here?

(The Troll managed to revert back to his human form.)

???: I think I remember now.. I am Bishop Shima of the Erebus Cult, please to meet you. And you are..?

Hitoshura: Call me Hitoshura... I don't think I can revert back to my human form anymore and thus, my original name is no longer important.

Shima: What is this place?

Hitoshura: This is First Kalpa of the Labyrinth of Amala. Supposedly, all the demons I kill will end up in tombs here. This place is also infested with demons of all varieties, shapes and sizes. None are conscious as that they only seek to destroy whatever they encounter. The ones who are conscious, unlike yourself are pretty much those who are no longer trustworthy. Tons of traps here..

Shima: How do I get out of here?

Hitoshura: I have no clue. How did an Avatar Tuner ended up here in the first place? This is pretty odd..

Shima: I must return to Pearl City to ask Ray what those gyoza were made of.

Hitoshura: Hold it.. Didn't you said Kobe awhile ago? Where is this Pearl City place you speak of now??

Shima: I said Kobe..!? What are you talking about? I had always lived in Pearl City all my life. Ray bought the gyoza packages at the supermarket..

Hitoshura: .....wait a second!? (I am sure I had heard it correctly which means the guy is either sprouting lies or must had hit his head during the process of exploding out of the tomb.)

Shima: What's wrong? Why do you have a funny expression?

Hitoshura: (I better to switch to my Wadatsumi magatama.)

(Hitoshura took out what appeared to be a living creature out of his pockets and swallowed it. The next moment, a similar-looking creature came out of his mouth and placed into his pocket.)

Shima: !?

Hitoshura: Alright, play time is over..

Shima: What do you mean? I just want to get out of here..

Hitoshura: Obviously, this is the least of your desires. I won't be foolish enough to give you a pre-emptive. Your ice attacks are not ineffective against me.

Shima: Huh? I must get back to Pearl City. My followers will help me do the exorcism ritual to expel demons like you..

Hitoshura: I believe you have either hit your head during the tomb explosion or that something had gone wrong after you devoured those imported gyoza which you seem to believe to be extremely delicious. Avatar Tuners are extremely rare yet you don't seem to be bothered by it.

Shima: I still don't have the slightest clue what you are talking about..

Hitoshura: Of course, not.. You have already lost it. Quit faking it and transform. Show me those powerful avatar tuning abilities of yours..

Shima: As the Bishop of the Erebus Cult, I will have no choice but to fight you fairly, even though you are just a demon.

(Shima performs special ritual and summons a demon.)

Shima: Turdak, show your master the powers of a demon..

Turdak: ...

(Turdak attacks Hitoshura but his slow moves were easily evaded.)

Shima: !? (What's happening to me..!?

(Upon Turdak's appearance, Shima had started to lose control of himself. He lost consciousness and had already went into avatar tuner's berserker mode. The bishop's head had transformed to the horrifying head of the troll but he still managed to keep a human body.)

Shima: I feel hungry..

Hitoshura: Perhaps, there is a poison in that gyoza packages you consumed. Sort of like an addiction. If you do not consume those gyoza when you feel hungry, you will lose it and transform into a demon or perhaps, should I call you an avatar tuner as that is what you are?

Shima: Quiet!! How dare you talk back to the great Bishop of the Erebus Cult!? You must think you have a too long lifespan, do you!? Want to die? Once I devour the Turdak, I will regain my full powers and you are next..

Hitoshura: Really? I think you will be returning to that tomb or better yet, the only place you will be returning to is the huge body of solar data.

(Shima attacks and devours Turdak. His powers greatly increased and his element had changed from ice to fire.)

Hitoshura: I do not see much of a difference in yours powers as you just demonstrate.

Shima: Take this, you demon!!

(Shima used Ragnarok and greatly wounds Hitoshura whose magatama, the Wadatsumi was weak against.)

Hitoshura: Not bad..

(Hitoshura quickly uses a soma and changed his magatama to Shiranui. And off, he summons three demonic companions.)

Hitoshura: Now, your attacks are useless against me. Since you like summoning demons, I will show you how it is truly done. I don't even need to perform any strange-looking rituals. Come forth, Queen Mab! Titania! Metatron!

Shima: I thought what you were going to summon.. Two ladies and a chunk of metal.. Very impressive!

Hitoshura: Gaea Rage!

Queen Mab: Dekunda!

Titania: Divine Grace!

Metatron: Fire of Sinai!

(Unfortunately, Bishop Shima of the Erebus Cult was merely all talk as that he was easily defeated in a single turn.)

Shima: How could this be..? I am the great Bishop.. For the glory of the Erebus Cult..

(Shima vanished into thin air. It appears that he had reverted back to mere solar data and is returning to the place he came to be. However, it is also irrelevant as to whether he was originally an avatar tuner or not as that everything consist of mere solar data.)

Hitoshura: May you rest in peace.. I shall travel the Labyrinth of Amala once again.

(Hitoshura continues his journey into the Labyrinth of Amala seeking an answer to the Black Sun and also the existence of solar data.)

Its been nearly a week since my last chapter to the fanfic. Apparently, I have yet to come up with another chapter or a preview. Generally, I was going to start a second fanfic based on either the Growlanser series or the Phantom/Yakuza series.

If I start the Growlanser fanfic, I will also have to come up with flag designs which is a little difficult. Generally, it would be something like this..

The Peace Maintance Brigade will have a green flag signifying world peace and the maintenance of world peace. The Erebus Cult will have a communist red flag while the Shomonkai will have a democratic blue flag. The designs of the flags itself would have something like those Gundam flags as opposed to the detailed designs of the actual Growlanser flags. However, the entire idea of hoisting flags would somewhat undermine the story of the fanfics itself and thus, the idea got scrapped.

Generally, a preview for the next chapter is still unavailable. I might start a second fanfic instead centralizing on a different series, then occasionally make updates to this fanfic. Since my current games are Growlanser V and Ryu ga Gotoku 2, I don't have any new ideas to make this fanfic more interesting for the time being..

Sorry for the wait, the next preview will be available in 2-3 weeks from now.

PREVIEW

(After Hitoshura entered the Third Kalpa, he ran into a devil hunter. During his encounter with Dante, Hitoshura had became friendly with the guy and gave him some information regarding delicious gyoza that enables the transformation of avatar tuners. With something this important, Dante decided to do some investigation at the Erebus Cult in Pearl City.)

Dante: (If I am not mistaken, the best place to gather information regarding the delicious gyoza would be to pay a visit to that Cardinal's place. He seems to be linked with the gyoza makers.)

(Moments after arriving at the city, Dante made haste and quickly arrived at one of the most famous seafood restaurants operated by the Erebus Cult.)

Dante: I was wondering if your Cardinal visits here often?

Manager: He does come by once or twice a week but no idea about today. Would like to order something?

Dante: I heard you guys sell some special grass?

Manager: What grass? I have no idea what you are talking about...

Dante: You know.. The stuff that makes you feel energetic and refreshed..

Manager: What sort of grass?

Dante: (Maybe, that question is some sort of secret code system..) I am willing to pay 4 times the market price. How about it?

Manager: Keep quiet and have some..

Dante: Nice!! I get to smoke some grass while waiting for the Cardinal. (This stuff will aid me in battle. Perhaps, it might even make Devil Trigger 4 times more powerful..)

(Hours have passed.. Dante remained in the seafood restaurant drinking tea, smoking grass, and trying out some seafood dishes.)

Cardinal Raymond: Manager, I would like a seat. I am extra hungry today.

Manager: Sir, there is a very suspicious individual looking for you. The guy seems to be a cosplayer of some sort, unless those pair of guns and sword are real which I doubt..

Cardinal Raymond: Hmm... I will approach the guy. Never seen him before..

Dante: Are you the Cardinal that promotes the delicious gyoza dishes?

Cardinal Raymond: Why...yes? And you are...?

Dante: (Smoking this grass makes me rather energetic.) What happens if I say that your gyoza is tied to the development of avatar tuning abilities..?

Cardinal Raymond: Excuse me, sir... What is avatar tuning?

Dante: How about I put it this way instead.. Eatting your gyoza dishes are proven to be unsafe as that it causes hazardous side-effects...

Cardinal Raymond: Enough of your nonsense, you are not welcome here!

Dante: I am a customer of this restaurant. It has nothing to do with whether you welcome it or not..

Cardinal Raymond: In that case, please keep your mouth shut.. Your are insulting the name of the Erebus Cult. The food my best friends had made went through strict quality control. There is no way it could cause hazardous side-effects you claim..

Dante: How about you ask the Manager here to try some?

Cardinal Raymond: Why should I do that? In fact, another word from you.. I, Raymond Royer will sue the pants off of you. By article 426, phase 14A.. You have clearly violated the law of tarnishing the name of the Erebus Cult. Our religion is clearly a non-profit organization that grants people harmony. Thus, I would have to request that you quickly finish your meal here, pay your bills and get the hell out of here. If you are to stay any longer, do not blame me if my Kohryu will cause you harm and misfortune.

Dante: What the....?

Cardinal Raymond: Do you understand that our Erebus Cult do not welcome your unreasonable hostilities? I have to tell you one more time.. There is absolutely nothing wrong with our gyoza dishes. If you continue that crap of yours, you will leave me no choice but to do you harm.. May Lord Erebus forgive my aggressive actions as that it is necessary..

Dante: (Perhaps, I should go out in Devil Trigger but then again, Hitoshura only wanted some information on the avatar tuning process. I am not paid to fight some random guy off the street. I might as well do as he says..) Alright sir, my apologies. It must be this grass your friendly Manager had sold me..

Cardinal Raymond: I do not understand what you are talking about now either. What grass? Are you trying to defame this magnificient seafood restaurant that had even welcomed ambassadors of multiple nations? This place clearly do not sell grass or soil or whatever you think it might.. Please think before you speak if you do not wish for trouble...

Dante: Oh.. Sorry 'bout that.. I was just kidding.. This is no grass.. It might smell a little funny but it is clearly tobacco, yes tobacco..

Cardinal Raymond: In that case, please enjoy your meal as I will enjoy mine. Leave once you are finish after paying the bills.

Dante: Sure, do.. (This place is sure hostile.. Perhaps, I should head over to the gyoza makers and ask them in the style of Devil Trigger instead. There is no doubt that I wouldn't want to argue like now..) I will leave at once. Here are the payments, you keep the tips. I am out of here!

(As soon as Dante steps out the door, the Manager quickly approaches the Grand Cardinal to have a discussion.)

Manager: Why didn't you just summon Kohryu? I had added some poison in that grass he bought.. There is no way he can win in a battle of two against one. In fact, I could probably take him out myself..

Grand Cardinal: Are you foolish? Have you not realize who the guy is? He is that famous demon slayer Dante... That grass should have no effect on him. I am unsure as to whether we could actually win against such a guy.. More importantly, why in the world would Dante came all the way from New Yark asking about gyoza. This is definitely strange.. I should look into it. Perhaps, it would be best to send some subordinates into Kalpa. This could be linked with the sudden appearance of a demi-fiend in that sacred place.

Manager: .....If only I could...

This is just a short preview of what will be on the new update. The next update won't be available for a few weeks as that it is still in development.
