P5 X NSP ; The Persona In Me

A Lost Mizutsune

Bloom was, well, freaked out by the camera-headed guy but still grabbed his hand anyways.

"My name's Cory, what's yours?" He asked as he pulled Bloom up.

"Bloom. Nice to meet you, Cory. Also, why do you have a....camera for a face?" He asked, confused. Cory looked at him, confused before pointing to his camera eye. Bloom nodded and he simply chuckled.

"I was born with it." Cory replied, smiling. Bloom was extremely confused. He then notices that his attire is, well, a police outfit.

"Pardon, but do you work as a police officer?" He asked. Cory nodded.

"Yeah, I work over there at that police station." Cory said, pointing at somewhere behind Bloom. He turned around and there was, indeed, a police station.

"Ah, well, I better get back home. Today was a VERY tiring day for me, hehe." Bloom said.

"Oh, okay. Also, have you seen the amount of paper on the gates at an office building today?" Cory questioned him. Bloom immediately knew what he was talking about.

"Yes, yes, I have."

"Well, I read it and it was some sort of calling card from a group called the 'SoulSaviours'. Apparently, they're revealing something about the boss, Tinker, and want to make her repent for her sins. The next day, she did! I wonder why...do you know?" Cory asked.

"Ah, nope. Also, how do you know?"

"The news." Cory answered. Bloom was just amazed at how quickly the news reported it.

"Also, you're the new boss, right?"

"Uhm, uh, yes? I dunno, it was a bit stressful to hear that word." Bloom said.

"Ah, it's ok! Being promoted to a very high level is stressful, indeed." Cory assured him.

"Well, I better go now." Bloom said.

"See ya next time Bloom!" Cory said as Bloom walked away, waving goodbye before walking to the police station. Just as he was about to, he noticed something. He then saw a mizutsune doll laying on the pavement. He then picked it up and looked at it before looking in the direction of where Bloom went.

"I think that's his... he's long gone, though. I'll go put this in the lost and found till he comes for it!" Cory said before walking to the police station joyfully, humming a nice tune. Mizu was trying so hard to not budge or panic and she did well. Cory then entered the station and continued to walk until he reached a storage room.

"CORY! Where were you?!" A voice yelled. Cory turned around and saw Triana.

"Oh, hey Tri. I bumped into someone on the way here." Cory said, calmly and smilingly.

"Oh. What's that in your hand?" Triana asked when she noticed Mizu. Cory looked down at it.

"The person I bumped into lost it. I'm putting it into the lost or found box in the storage room so they could pick it up later!" Cory said.

"Ah. Well, your girlfriend's waiting for you so you guys can start your date. Good luck~." She said teasingly before walking away. Cory embarrassingly chuckled before entering the storage room. He then walked past a lot of confiscated items and other stuff before reaching a box that's labelled 'Lost or Found'. He then snugly placed Mizu into the box before exiting, leaving Mizu inside the box. Mizu then fidgeted for a bit before getting up.

"Gosh, pretending to be a doll is tiring.." Mizu said as she lifted herself to look outside from the box she was in.

"Hmmm, I think they said something bout this being a storage room but....wait a minute." She sniffed the air for a bit. "I smell chocolate. Not just any chocolate, honeycomb chocolate!" Mizu said enthusiastically before jumping down from the box onto the ground. She then sniffed around for a bit before catching where the scent came from. She kept on running until she met the door.

"Aw man, they're somewhere else!" Mizu said before groaning. All of a sudden, an idea popped into her head. She then parkoured up the shelves then onto the door handle, which worked well and she was able to unlock the door.

"Good job, me." Mizu whispered to herself as she peeked through the crack of the door. There wasn't anyone around so she jumped down from the door handle and onto the ground outside. She then looks around again, checking for anyone before running to the nearest hiding spot. She did the same for each time nobody was around until she reached the area where the scent came from; a fridge.

"Huh. That's where the smell's coming from..." Mizu said as she stared at the large contraption. She then looked around once more before parkouring up once more until she reached the fridge.

"Darn, I have to pull it to open it....unless...?" She then strongly pushed the door and the door opened. She gasped before entering the fridge and seeing the large chocolate bar in front of her with a sticky note on it.

"DON'T EAT!!

-T" Was what it read. Mizu chuckled.

"Oh, no mysterious person, I'll be eating the chocolate. Itadakimasu!" She said before opening the package and ravaging the delicious, chocolatey inside and alas, it was gone in a sitting.

"Whew! That was delish! Well, better get back to being a doll now." She said before returning to the storage room, which nobody cared to close the door for. She then jumped back up more shelves before going back into the box so she could wait for Bloom to pick her up.
