Yosuke: Phew... We managed to get away. But was too close, are we seriously going to have guys like that coming after us all the time?
Yu: I don't know, but if what that sheep was saying earlier is true, our troubles are far from over. Let's just try to avoid those wolves as much as possible from now on.
Yosuke: Yeah if we get surrounded by those wolves again, we're not gonna last long.
Yu: anyway let's just keep moving forward
Yosuke: We're always up for a wander, lead on buddy.
Meanwhile, Naoto made it into Shen's throne room undetected that was when she decided to contact Mitsuru.
Naoto: I'm in.
Mitsuru: Good you have a plan of some sort?
Naoto: I'll just tell him I'm a wandering assassin,
Naoto drops down and lands in front of Shen.
Shen: Who are you? How did you get in here?
Naoto: Relax I'm just a wandering assassin.
Shen: What? I don't recall having an assassin, who hired you?!
Naoto: no one. I actually came on my own and I heard that you need someone to get rid of.
The guards were about to execute the intruder but Shen told them to stay their hand.
Shen: I'm listening...
Naoto showed Shen the wanted poster of Yu.
Shen: Why are you showing me this?
Naoto: I know this stranger more than anybody. You want this person dead? I'm your gal.
Shen: ...very well, you're hired. Find this stranger and bring him here to me.
"It will be done," Naoto said as she bowed and left.
Naoto used her earpiece to contact Mitsuru once she was enough distance from Lord Shen
Naoto: Good news He bought it.
Mitsuru: Excellent, wait for us at the prison, and don't get caught.
Meanwhile, The 13 heroes continued their way to Gongmen jail when they saw Soldiers on the ground dead.
Crane: Those are...
Mitsuru: Shen's troops, but who could've done this?
Akihiko: Why don't you ask her?
They saw a Persona sitting on top of a roof. Soon she jumped down and landed in front of the heroes.

???: Shifu's chosen warriors I presume?
Po: How does she know about us?!
???: Unfortunately, it seems your timing was a tad off.
Seiryu: Careful Narukami, she may be powerful and we don't know what she's capable of.
???: The wolves that infested this area are already disposed of, and I daresay they could use some company.
Yu: you guys go ahead and wait for me, I'll handle her.
"Alright don't die on us partner!" Yosuke said before he and the others left.
Arachne: I am Arachne, Prepare to die.
Yu took out his divine sword and readied his stance.
Yu clashed swords with Arachne's.
They broke the clash as Arachne put her strings in the ground and webs came up from the ground and tied up Yu in spider webs causing him to drop his sword.
"My... For a human you are formidable," Arachne taunted as she stroked Yu's cheek with her finger.
Yu holds up a floating card as he manages to summon one of his Personas
Yu: Cerberus!

Cerberus appeared and used Fire breath burning away the sticky web and freeing Yu.
Yu picks up his sword and stabs it on the ground stopping time.
Time was frozen as he moved in and knocked the sword out of her hands before he crushed the card
Time resumes as the sword is knocked out of Arachne's hands as it lands on the roof.
Yu: give up you lost.
Arachne: Don't be so sure...
Arachne smirked as she pulled her strings slightly, the sword came down from the roof and flew straight toward Yu but Lu Bu backhanded it away.
Lu Bu: alright Who sent you?
Soon a bullet was fired at Yu but Lu Bu caught the bullet. When they looked up they saw a Persona with a dark costume wearing a black hat a white crow mask wielding a pistol as he jumped down. This was Giles Corey

Giles:  I thought you'd be cleaning up the stragglers

Giles: I thought you'd be cleaning up the stragglers... but he looks like no soldier I've seen.
Yu readies his sword.
"Take solace in our meeting human, I'll make your death a painless one," Giles said as he pointed his pistol at Yu
Arachne: Come now Giles surely you can stay your hand for a moment.
"Tch. Another one of your whims?" Giles asked as he put away his pistol.
Arachne: Well he stood up to me valiantly without a flicker of fear.
Kartikeya: Those two seem willing to talk, it's best if you stow your weapon Narukami.
Yu listened as he put away his sword.
Yu: Who exactly are you two?
Arachne: I am Arachne, the goddess of spiders. The man next to me is Giles Corey. You could say he's my partner.
Yu: So, whose side are you on? I know you're not on Shen's side since you guys took out his soldiers.
Arachne: We serve no one, So I guess you could say we're on neither side.
Giles: I have a deal for you, Stay out of our way. And if you do, we'll stay out of yours.
Yu: that's fair enough.
Giles: Further in is Gongmen Jail, Master Ox and Master Croc are in there. However 4 generals are blocking your way, if you defeat them you'll be able to make it. And here take this.
Giles threw a special gem at Yu with the latter catching it.
Giles walked away while Arachne gave a seductive wave before she followed Giles as they both disappeared.
Yu: That was... something.
Lu Bu: indeed now then we should hurry and meet up with the others
Yu nodded and ran to catch up with the others.
