Rui Shinichi
16/4/2015 - Thursday > 19/4/2015 - Sunday

Rui swept through the rest of the week rather quickly, school went by somewhat fast, with Golden Week coming, everyone was already talking about what they were going to do on the week long break. Rui didn't have an idea of what to do, in fact it wasn't even really on his mind. He felt a sense of duty towards helping those who were trapped in the Mirror World, he didn't quite understand how they ended up there. Based on the last two, Noboru and now Matthew... They were nothing like his experience... In any case, it was Sunday now.

[h3]The Kingdom of Me
19/4/2015 Sunday[/h3][/center]

"The Kingdom... of Me...?", Noboru uttered, whether it was out of confusion or annoyance, it definitely felt rather... Arrogant. The party wasted no time arriving at the warehouse, and already ventured into the mirror. Soon they were standing before a fairly pleasant forest, with a big sign pointing inwards "To the Kingdom of Me!". According to the sign also, this was the "Forest of Beginnings". Megumi was already standing by with her Persona scanning ahead, before Rui, Noboru and Kami were going to step through.

[color=royalblue]"Now, before you all go in, I'd like to assign someone to call the shots. I will remain here to keep Megumi safe... So someone who is going in will be calling shots... Just so we have a unified group. I'd like to assign this duty to Rui, and Kami as his second, because you two are the most level-headed, and the most experienced out of us here excluding me and Megumi"[/color], the group nodded in agreement, and shortly afterwards, Megumi spoke up.

[color=magenta]"Okay, I've finished scanning ahead... I can confirm there is a small town on the other side of this forest. I am getting a strong reading from there, so that's probably where our target is"[/color], she announced. That was the sign to go in, and so they did.

[color=magenta]"Be careful in the forest, I'm getting a variety of readings, from very faint to bold, so it's likely the shadows here are able to hide too"[/color].

[center][h2]Warakuma Mall
19/4/2015 Sunday[/h2][/center]

The mall was having a little event today in the central area. It appeared to be selling an assortment of arts and crafts equipment and materials, as well as fabrics. This little event really reminded you that Warakuma was still a fairly rural area, despite the urbanization. It was mostly mothers, grandmothers and school girls who would flock to make cute things, though there was an occasional embarrassed male. One in particular was not looking so embarrassed, in fact he probably had the most full bag there... He seemed to be middle-aged, short and well-kept hair, and an unchanging expression that showed perseverance. Based on what he was doing, this was probably relevant to his job... Maybe? At least that's what most figured.

In any case, here he was shopping. The clothing stores in the mall were having a sale on outing clothes due the up and coming Golden Week too, and a new fast store selling small electronics opened too.
