MALE STUDENT: Ah, Suou-senpai! Wait just a sec! Things are really bad!
MALE STUDENT: The Narura Stone in the courtyard started to emit a strange light and suddenly the Last Battalion came bursting in here!
MALE STUDENT: I ran for my life, but the rest of the guys all got captured. Now, they're all locked up in the classrooms!
MALE STUDENT: Soldiers have been left on the lookout, and there's nothing else that we can do! Please, please save everyone!
MALE STUDENT: ...with that said, I'm getting out of here! Senpai! I'm leaving the rest to you!

[1-A]
BROWN: Oh, you're here. Everything is fine. I took 'em all down in one clean sweep. I really am super-powerful. De hya hya hya ha!
BROWN: ... Well, let's leave the jokes at that. I've pretty much heard everything that’s going on. You guys go save that Ideal teacher. I'll protect things here.
BROWN: What, you're still here? Hurry up and save that teacher! You can get to Xibalba from the courtyard, can't you?
EIKICHI: Noooo... those praising voices were all supposed to be directed towards me! This really sucks.
LISA: Hoh san luo! It's great that Brown-san is fighting alongside us! We don't have to worry about the school now.
MAYA: He's fought alongside Yukki before. The Last Battalion can't take him out. Let's hurry on to Xibalba.
JUN: It's warm... inside me, Yukino-san's Persona is responding... it's almost as if it notices Brown-san.

[The male students say that Brown kicked some serious ass, and Ideal-sensei was taken to the courtyard by people in masks. The female students comment on how hot Brown is, and mention Saeko-sensei has also been captured.]

[2-C]
ERIKO: Are you all okay? When I got word that the Last Battalion had invaded this school, I rushed over.
ERIKO: I understand most of what is going on. Leave the school to us. You guys hurry and rescue that kidnapped teacher, please.
EIKICHI: Ha ha ha, maybe we should have been worried more for the Last Battalion than Seven Sisters.
LISA: Ah! Eri-san, too!
MAYA: It looks like it’ll be just fine leaving the school to Eri-san and the others.
JUN: It's so strange... I feel like I know that person very well. This must also be thanks to Yukino-san's Persona.

[The students talk about Eriko being a mysterious beauty who kicked ass with one word, "Persona", how grateful they are to be saved, and that Ideal-sensei disappeared into the light in the courtyard with some masked people.]

[3-B]
MAKI: Ah, Suou-kun. Are you guys okay? Eri told us the Last Battalion was headed for this school.
MAKI: I've heard most of what's up. Leave the city to us, and you guys head to Xibalba!
MAKI: I didn't know Saeko-sensei was at this school... I was surprised. She hasn't changed a bit... it's kind of nostalgic.
SAEKO-SENSEI: I see... Mayuzumi's kicking butt somewhere else in town, huh. Heh heh. Don't lose to your senpai, Suou. You should be honest with your feelings, too.
SAEKO-SENSEI: That's right. You only live once; it's wasteful to spend it being lost.
YOUKO: Huh...Tatsuya-kun? Where have you been all this time? I wanted to apologize to you... I'm sorry I said such bad things to you before...
YOUKO: I... I... Joker-sama made my dream come true; he made me beautiful... but... I really wanted you to look at me...
YOUKO: But, whatever... just forget about me. It seems like everyone else has. I don't want you to look me like this.
YOUKO: I wonder where I went wrong?
EIKICHI: Hm... beautiful flowers still have thorns. She didn't lose to a group of three Last Battalion soldiers. Why am I not surprised?
LISA: Hoh san luo! Maki-san's come too!
MAYA: Now we're unstoppable! We can stop worrying and head to Xibalba.
JUN: That teacher always watched over you, just like she watched over Yukino-san, didn't she?
JUN: The one who's really been fighting this whole time may have been that teacher...

[The students talk about having seen Anna helping people in the city with an unknown woman, how happy they are Saeko-sensei watched over them all this time, and that Ideal-sensei disappeared into the light from the Narurato Stone in the courtyard.]
 

[Most of the rooms are closed to you, but floors one to three have one room you can walk into. In each of them, Hannya is there proudly standing over the corpses of Last Battalion soldiers he killed single-handedly.]

[1-A]
HANNYA: Oh, Suou! I’ve been reformed by that punch you gave me, so I came back to Sevens. It's thanks to you that I'm back. I must thank you. I heard about it all from the students. Go save Okamura-sensei. Don't worry about things here! I'll protect the school.
LISA: What happened to Principal Hannya? Did he kill those Last Battalion guys?
MAYA: That principal... he's become a wonderful teacher, but... oh! Is this because of those rumors that were going around about Principal Hannya being a hero? They came true!
EIKICHI: Is this cause of all those rumors? The principal came back, just like they were saying? You've got to be kidding me.
JUN: In the end, that teacher's dream came true--he became an instructor loved by his students. But this wasn't thanks to me; it was all because of this school's students. He may be one of the few whose true dream came true.

[2-C]
LISA: What? Principal Hannya again?
HANNYA: Within a strong body is a strong mind, and within a strong mind is a strong Persona! You're ten years too early to beat me!
MAYA: The principal is here, too? But just now he was in another classroom... did he run ahead of us?
EIKICHI: Is that principal extra fast or what? He seems like he's got some of that strength left from that last battle... geez, he's turned into a real no-nonsense teacher.
JUN: I believe that everybody should find their own path, but there are a great number of people who give you support as you find it. How does that teacher feel when he looks at his students? I envy him. 

[3-B]
HANNYA: What are you doing here? Don't worry about the school. Go after Okamura-sensei.
SAEKO: I see... Mayuzumi is still doing her best, somewhere out in the city. Heh heh, Suou. Don't lose to your senpai! You should learn to tame your feelings, too. You have only one life... there's no time to get lost.
JUN: That teacher always watched over you, just like she watched over Yukino-san, didn't she? The one who's really been fighting this whole time may have been that teacher...
MAYA: I told Saeko-sensei about Yukki. Let's do our best not to lose to them!
EIKICHI: That homeroom teacher of yours is pretty protective. Heh; just like Yukino.
LISA: I'm glad to see Saeko-sensei is safe, but for her to have been saved by Principal Hannya... I don’t know...
YOUKO: Huh... Tatsuya-kun...? Geez... where have you been all this time...? I always wanted to apologize to you... I'm sorry I said such bad things to you before... I..I...Joker-sama... made my dream come true... he made me beautiful... but... I wanted you to look at me... But... whatever... just forget about me... it seems like everyone else has. I don't want you to look at the embarrassing form I'm in...

[If you talk to the students, most of them talk about how cool/strong/handsome Principal Hanya is. Some mention the masked man who took Ideal-sensei away, some comment on Anna being seen in the city, and so on.]
 

JUN: This is the Gates Of Heaven... Father theorized the Milky Way was the path to Xibalba.
JUN: He said beneath Seven Sisters, the Tanabata River branches, and the Milky Way should be there...
JUN: The Milky Way reaches the Gates of Heaven here at the Narurato Stone.
EIKICHI: Underneath here is the Milky Way, huh? I was sure rivers were supposed to flow sideways... well, everything's messed up right now anyway.
LISA: Aiya... no way, the Narurato Stone had this kind of secret...?
LISA: I see... that's why Ideal-sensei was always here!
MAYA: Once we enter, I don't know if we'll be able to return...Tatsuya-kun, are your preparations complete?

[What Maya says is partially true--once you enter (walk up to the light and select the first option) you'll have to do the Milky Way, which is a short, linear dungeon, as well as the first half of Xibalba, without returning to the city. There's not a Trish's Spring nor a Velvet Room for a while after this starts, nor is there a place to buy items, so make sure you've got the Personae with you that you want, enough items to last you (if you're still using the Ultimates, make sure you've got a lot of Chewing Souls) and have properly upgraded your armor and/or weapons. You will get the option to return to the city halfway through Xibalba. If you have underleveled Personae, I'd suggest spending a bit of time fighting the Nazis in Seven Sisters, since the Milky Way isn't a good place to level.]

Whenever you're ready, step into the light.
 

[AT THE BANK OF THE MILKY WAY]
LISA: Aiya...it really is a river.
MAYA: The rock is shining... they weren't kidding when they said this was the Milky Way.
JUN: If we travel downstream, we should reach the entrance to Xibalba.
EIKICHI: There's a Nazi boat sitting here. Our only problem is who's going to drive it?
MAYA: Come on everyone, get on!
JUN: Heeey, that's my Maya-neesan. You can even drive a boat!
EIKICHI: Do you really think she can do it?
LISA: Nope.
MAYA: Hurry, hurry! We don't have time!
JUN: Maya-neesan, when did you learn to drive a boat?
MAYA: I've got a regular driver's license; stop worrying so much!
JUN: Huh?
[Maya starts the boat and promptly smacks it around like a bumper car.]
EIKICHI AND LISA: I knew it!
MAYA: A-ah ha ha ha ha ha ha! I-is everyone all right?
MAYA: Look, I'm proud of the fact that nobody's ever died when I've been driving! Aha...aha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
[She attempts to drive again, with the same results.]
LISA: ... Maybe we could just let Tatsuya drive? Maya-chan?
MAYA: ... Okay.

[At this point, you'll start heading down the river. It's linear, but the choices you make will enable you to get out quickly. If you pick the wrong choices, it simply becomes a longer dungeon.]

[FIRST JUNCTION]
LISA: Aiya...the river forks in three different directions. What should we do, Ching-yan?
 - Turn left
 - Go straight
 - Turn right
[For best results, go straight.]

[SECOND JUNCTION]
EIKICHI: Hey, everybody, this time there's two branches. Right or left? Choose now!
 - Left
 - Right
[For best results, go right.]

[THIRD JUNCTION]
JUN: Again, two branches. What should we do, Tatsuya?
 - Go left
 - Go right
[For best results, go left.]

[START FALLING DOWN THE WATERFALL]
LISA: This is so boring... it's the same scenery over and over again! I'm sick of it! Sick, sick, sick of it!
EIKICHI: What are you squawkin’ about? If you want some entertainment, you're welcome to it--there's a waterfall. Are you satisfied?
MAYA: Shh! Be quiet! What's that sound?
EVERYONE: Oh, no!
[They fall down the waterfall, and land by the rocks below.]
JUN: I'm glad, Tatsuya... you look unharmed.
JUN: You take care of Lisa and Maya-neesan. I'll see how Michel is doing.
LISA: Ugh... Tatsuya?
MAYA: Ooh... Tatsuya-kun? How's everyone?
EIKICHI: Ow... Man, that was nasty...
MAYA: Whew... everyone seems to be okay.
MAYA: Now that we've fallen from that high place, going back is impossible... let's think about what to do.
EIKICHI: By the way, Jun, what have you been looking at?

[The party approaches Xibalba.]
