All three of them managed to expose themselves and, while Daigo was thankful he wouldn't be going down alone, he'd never manage to slip away now that all his compatriots were involved. Did she know what a Shadow was? Or was Ueno merely scoffing at Genki's excuse? If she did, one would think she'd know to avoid mirrors. Unfortunately, Daigo got his wish; she stepped away from the mirror - toward him. She was going to kill him. He'd die to blind samurai kung fu. When the hand plopped down on the top of his head, the squirrelly second-year raised his hands in preparation to block a knee to the face, only to lower them again when her hands clamped down on his shoulders. Even worse, she'd snap his neck like they do in the movies! Or- or do a shoulder... death... touch... Okay, he probably wasn't in immediate danger. Daigo only tuned in to Emi's hysterics when Noriaki decided to [i]antagonize her[/i] for some reason and the ginger heard his name excitedly squealed. Nevermind, he was still going to die - just by school administration rather than angry woman. They were caught. Busted. Cornered- did she say William? Ueno didn't even seem angry; quite the opposite, in fact. They were saved! Exonerated! Some... other positive word! Though it begged the question of how [i]she[/i] knew about William. Had she signed the contract too? Seemed like a waste to give a blind girl a Persona. Though, she could evidently see the butterfly so... maybe demons or Shadows or whatever are visible to everyone? He didn't know what a Mineri was - wait, no, that was one of the girls that died, wasn't it? Maybe her house was the one they found miraculously repaired, and Ueno had been there too. [color=ff9933]"W-William yes, Minoru- err, [i]Mineri[/i], no,"[/color] Daigo sheepishly answered in hopes that acquiescence would spare their disciplinary records, [color=ff9933]"A demon... hand... shadow... thing came out of a mirror in the gym the other day and pulled me in, so when we saw you and the butterfly going into a room with mirrors I- well, I mean, err, we, I guess- uh, followed you into the, um... g-girl's room."[/color] Though Ueno couldn't see it, the echoes of a shoe feverishly tapping against the floor announced rather blatantly that the redhead's nervous ticks had come out in full force at the admission. [color=ff9933]"I promise I'm not a pervert! I don't even l- uh. I'm sorry!"[/color] The boy's face had easily surpassed his hair in redness, and his cadence picked up to match Ueno's. [color=ff9933]"C-can someone else take over? I think I'm... rambling too much... [i]or-digging-my-own-grave[/i]..."[/color] [hr][@Asura][@Lord Orgasmo][@Obscene Symphony]
