When Johnathan suggested they talk about their newly acquired power, Kazuo nodded and told him it was a good idea to learn about what they can expect from one another if and when they run into another fight. Johnathan explained his Persona's abilities and then is followed by Gruffydd and Minto; the latter of whom proceeded to inspect the spring while the rabbit-headed man and Trish continued their heated argument. Gruffydd seemed a little anxious about something. He sighed and talked quietly about Trish, calling her one of the "Tylwyth Teg". After that, Kazuo explained the details of Agi, Cleave, Sukukaja, and Tarunda to the others - the abilities of his Persona. Meanwhile, Ito approached the rabbit-headed man and interrupted the argument by bringing up a name suggestion for him: "Shiro Usagi," or simply "Shiro" for short. Trish rose an eyebrow, confused as to what Ito was talking about.

[color=000000]"Shiro Usagi... Shiro..."[/color] He contemplated the name for a brief moment. [color=000000]"I... I have a name."[/color]

[color=FF83FA]"Huh? What the hell are you talkin' about?"[/color]

[color=000000]"Don't you get it, you insufferable pixie? I have a name!"[/color] Shiro seemed ecstatic about his new name.

[color=FF83FA]"What did you call me, you deadbeat furry—"[/color] Trish's train of thought was swiftly interrupted when she heard a loud splash coming from behind her. Turning around, she saw a most unpleasant sight: Minto had fallen into the healing fountain. Shinku arrived to help him out of the fountain while Masako suggested this was the signal for them to leave. Kazuo couldn't agree more. The energy in the room quickly became ominous... and dangerous. Electricity started crackling all over Trish's body and her face became quite red from what can only be assumed as pure, unadulterated rage. The next thing that happened: the door of the building flew open and everybody was kicked out forcefully. Trish also threw a piece of paper at Shiro's face. [color=FF83FA]"And don't think about showing your ugly mugs here unless you have money! But before that: a thousand curses upon your houses!"[/color] Trish then slammed the door shut. That... could've went better.

Shiro removed the paper from his mask and looked at its contents. He gasped and nearly fell down when he saw that it was a bill with an amount which he won't disclosed to the others. [color=000000]"B-But why did she charged me...?"[/color] Shiro sulked before placing the bill into his waistcoat pocket. Unfortunately, Shiro's plan of "mending" the group's spirits had failed. Now apparently cursed, Kazuo turned to Minto who is still soaking wet.

"Sorry," Kazuo said before giving a nod. He then proceeded to embrace Minto with a hug.

> Full SP restored

Kazuo couldn't believe it actually worked. He soon released Minto and now his clothes are somewhat wet. [color=000000]"Hmm, a good idea but,"[/color] Shiro revealed a glass jar containing fountain water, [color=000000]"I took the opportunity to retrieve some water while that fairy was busy 'charging up'."[/color] Hearing that, Kazuo crossed his arms and turned his face away from the group; closing his eyes while he does it. It's difficult to tell if he is embarrassed, flustered, or what. Shiro looked to the others. [color=000000]"Anyone who hasn't been in prolonged contact with the water should take a small sip of this. You'll feel restored afterwards."[/color] After everyone's spirit was fully healed, Shiro led the group onward to Ms. Sasaki's location. They soon arrived at this world's version of the Wonder Mall in Nichibotsu. [color=000000]"Here we are. The shadow dragged that woman in here."[/color] The air felt heavy. There seemed to be an impending sense of doom in the atmosphere.

Kazuo walked forward but was stopped by Shiro. [color=000000]"Please wait. Allow me to go in and analyze the situation first. If any of you were to— No, I shouldn't think like that."[/color] Shiro volunteered to check the situation inside before putting the others in peril. He walked through the entrance, leaving the group to wait for his return; Kazuo observed the door in silence. Half a minute later, Shiro was thrown violently through the foggy glass entrance; landing at the group's feet. [color=000000]"Ugh..."[/color] He groaned in pain before slowly getting up with the assistance of Kazuo. [color=000000]"I-It's still in there... It has the woman you're looking for..."[/color] Kazuo entered the building, avoiding the glass shards as he does so. Inside, he is greeted with the sight of a supersized shadow with six arms; its mask slightly differs from the ones the group had encountered before.

Kazuo look to the side and noticed Ms. Sasaki lying there unconscious. There's no feasible way of getting to her without dealing with this gargantuan shadow first. The shadow eyed him and bellowed out a terrifying roar which prompted Kazuo to remove his baton from his belt. There's no way around it: they have to fight. Soon, the others came in as well and saw the situation they have to deal with. Shiro came in with support from Minto. [color=000000]"You're spirit... It's unlike the others. I believe you can discern a shadow's weaknesses when it comes into contact with a specific type of attack. You should support the others in this way if there is any hope of winning this battle,"[/color] Shiro explained to Minto.
