Chapter #14 ~ He Is My Other Self

(A/N: I have no words, LET THE FUN BEGIN!!!)

-----At Leblanc-----

"Another day of work *Sigh*." Sojiro let a deep sigh while smoking a cigarette and watching the news on TV.

"And now on our hot topic for today is..." The newscaster began, "People suddenly disappearing out of the blue, especially teenagers of the age of 16 and above. According to the police, there have been 890 people per day gone missing, the police don't know what are the cases why people suddenly vanish and still investigating this problem."

"This news is not new at all, the police said that people start disappearing on April 9; 500 people have been disappearing on that day and it keeps increasing every month. What is going on? Is there a culprit behind all of this? We will know soon enough."

"Woah..." Sojiro got speechless after watching the news on TV, "People began missing? Man, what's going in the world now?"

-----At Madarame's Palace-----

The Phantom Thieves enters a weird looking place were many bamboos decoration on the doors revealing inside another big decorated door.

"Yo, any luck?" Skull asked.

"Not yet." Joker responds, "I couldn't find any kind of mechanism."

"Me neither." Panther spoke, "I figured I could at least shut down the sensors."

"I also checked, but couldn't find a keyhole in the door." Mona sighed in distress.

"I couldn't find anything either." (C/N) spoke.

"Seriously? Then what're we supposed to do?" Skull asked.

"Doesn't seem like there's much we can do from here." Mona replied.

"What's that mean?" Skull curiously asked Mona.

"We need to form a plan." Mona looked at his teammates.

"How're we supposed to get past that door?" Ann asked.

"I dunno... You think there's some kinda off switch somewhere?" Ryuji said. 

"Looks like this is where I come in." Morgana spoke, "I have a suspicious place in mind. Remember? This shack is the basis for Madarame's Palace. I actually scouted it out the last time we were here."

"Whoa... So this was your plan from the start...?" Ryuji asked.

"Correct." Morgana said.

"...You only went 'scouting' because you were bored." Ann said. 

"So? Where's this suspicious place?" Ryuji asked Morgana. 

"It's on the second floor. I noticed an unnaturally hefty lock on a door up there." Morgana replied. 

"If it's locked, that means there's something in there he doesn't want people to see." Ann added. 

"But don't we wanna be opening the door in the Palace?" Ryuji asked again.
