Into the Velvet Room! (Mio's Awakening Continuation)

Velvet Attendant Justine and William would be the only attendants present in the room, excluding Margaret behind the Velvet Commodities bar. Even Igor was no where to be seen at this time. Bowing her head, Justine would greet the guests on entering the room while William stood slightly behind her, looking away. He didn't seem quite interested. "Hello, Genji-san. I see you have another new friend who has awakened their potential! It's about time you boys got a girl. I'm surprised you lasted so long without one!" Justine gave a goofy smile while giving Kiyomi Mio and thumbs up. Contrasting William's personality, Justine was quite energetic, and even enthusiastic aswell. The male attendant would walk up to Genji and Gabishi with a satchel in his hand. Going to each of them, he'd hand them both the rewards for a mission complete. He didn't say a word. Once handing them the items, he would keep the remaining in his satchel for Tsurinai Naito, when he finally paid them a visit again.

Items Receved each for Gabishi and Genji:

"So, usually Yu-kun would be the one to inform you all of changes in Limbo, and your world. This time, I wanted to give it a try. So basically, I summoned you here, and not Yu nor my master. Sorry to say, this is not a social call. It is now your responsibility to pass information to your friends about the power of Persona unless you need us to inform you once again. But umm." The attendant seemed to be having trouble relaying information, as this was not her initial purpose within the Velvet Room. As she struggled with the correct words, the door leading to the real world would open, and Attendant Elizabeth would make her way onto the scene. Her amber eyes looked at the scene, and her devilish smile was upon her face.

"Oh my, could this fateful tryst have anything to do with the Shadow that has appeared in the real world? Tryst? ..Heist? .. Burglary!" Elizabeth exclaimed suddenly, causing Justine to turn and look at her with a puffed face of irritation. "Darn you, sister! Yu said I could tell them!" Justine crossed her arms and puffed her cheeks like a child. At this time, William took over the conversation. "Saving much needed time, I'll inform you myself. Apparently a Shadow has escaped Limbo and crossed into your world. We've pinpointed its presence within the Jackpot Casino located in Shibakuzoi. If this Shadow is allowed to linger, it will devour the human conscious and grow in strength. For now, it seems relatively weak. We suspect it has crossed over into the real world, simply because Limbo continues to grow in strength, and merge with your world aswell. In laymen's terms, if something isn't done about Limbo, all the Shadows will be able to cross over. I recommend you taking care of this Shadow as soon as possible. I'll put more details on the request board, and of course, you'll get a reward." With that said, William shoved his hands into his pocket and went back to his area of the Velvet Room. Justine, of course even more mad William took her spotlight, began to flail in place. "Whatever! I don't care any more! All I know is this Shadow is relatively weak, so it may be good practice for your team, Genji-san. When a Shadow inhabits an area, it constantly drains the psyche of the people and the power within it, so you won't have to worry about people seeing you. It virtually becomes a deadzone for thought, and power. Until the Shadow is defeated, the area remains this way. Only those with the potential can operate normally within its presence." The young Attendant once again turned back to the group of Persona-Users. Her eyes scanned the crowd. They were missing two she had previously met before. Reiguu Eijji and Tsurinai Naito. Was it possible the team was ever changing, and some members just decided to part ways?

Gabishi entered the room while following Genji and Mio. He was still smoking his cigarette when he entered the Valvet Room. Even thought someone told him to stop, he didn't. Maybe Mio words didn't reached Gabishi's head since he was still angry and upset about the fight with Shadow Mio. He bet he will be already dead if Genji and Naito didn't help him out. Gabishi only wanted to help them but he did the opposite, he only add work to them. No wonder Naito left the place earlier before entering the room. Gabishi took a deep breath and released the smoke, hoping that it wouldn't reach Mio and Genji. Gabishi look around the room and the only words that could come from Gabishi's mind where blue and pretty cool. He saw some people inside the place that somehow they have the same hair color and eyes color, that was something strange for him. Gabishi somehow remember one of them, the boy one. He remembered him since he showed when Genji and Naito helped Gabishi to overcome his shadow. That was an awesome fight, not like the one against Shadow Mio. Without notice it his cigarette was almost finished, he took out a portable ashtray and put the butt of the cigarette inside. Now, no one would complain about the smoke that he was producing.

After one of the girl haired girl talked, a boy with the same hair color approached Gabishi and Genji giving both of them satchel. WIthout even looking the inside, Gabishi put the satchel away and look back to the gray haired girl. Gabishi become quite surprised and confused when he heard the girl saying that a shadow show up in the real world. He was still new to this kinda of things, so he was like Mio. Something like he fought earlier was in the human world? How he did go there? Can even a so called Persona-Users use their persona in the real world?. Gabishi become even more confused because all of that, but he decided to keep his mouth close. The only words that come out from his mouth was What the hell?

Following Genji into the door, leading into an all blueish velvet room, with her mouth slightly open from the sight of it. Never having to guess how they came up with the name, but all in all she thought that the color along with the scenery was actually quite nice. Along with the unique room, stood within it were two others both of the opposite sex and along with the room was wearing clothing with the color velvet, as its main color. The male started to speak to Genji Senpai, in a friendly manner and speaking of finally having a female in the group, meaning there are probably more then just Genji, Gabishi, and Naito, and that they are all males.

Mio stood in the middle between Genji and Gabishi as the two velvet attendants spoke to them about having to speak to her about whats going one, which she wanted in the first place, making her just nod her head in agreement. Soon having another one of the velvet covered attendants walking in through a door, speaking toward the three about something happening within the real world. The male began of speak in a larger tone, over the sister and told them a more detailed version of whats really happening.

"So we are suppose to just fight this shadow?"

Mio asked in curiousness as to her position in all this was small, she was still part of it and wanted more then a simple order. Though after hearing that since this is a weak shadow, it might prove worth of a little training, she hoped it would be the chance to be able to use her "persona". She pumped her fist into the air, with a smile on her face.

"Alright then, lets go!"

She said encouragingly.

Genji would take all of the information in. It was shocking that there was actually a Shadow in the real world, but Genji kind of had a feeling that it could happen at any time. Genji closed his eyes momentarily. This was just the thing that he needed to prepare new Users. He didn't like to think of it that way, but it kind of had to happen. Genji would look to the others and tell them what needed to be told.

"I need you two to help me defeat this Shadow. If it is a weak as they say it is, then this would be a great way to get you guys stronger for what is to come. I'll stand by while you guys fight this thing. If it becomes a problem for you two, I'll step in. Don't you worry about healing or taking damage. My Persona has a stronger healing ability, so I'll be able to keep you guys going if the going gets tough. I'll be counting on you guys. Unfortunately, I must go and prepare for this battle. I'll make sure that I get supplies to keep us going in case something bad happens. If you have any questions, you can always talk to me. Oh wait, here's my number."

Genji would exchange numbers with the two of them, make sure Mio was okay, then left. He would be off to look for Margaret, ready to buy some items for the battle coming up. (Already done, but just putting it in the topic.)

[Exit Genji, looking for Margaret's item shop of wonders]

The Attendants would wait on standby. They had nothing more to say unless the guests wished to speak to them of their own accord. In other words, they were free to carry on with their lives. The purpose of them being summoned was complete.
