[Be careful when you fight the boss, and make sure that not all your characters have water attributes. Leo fights with fire, so it's smart to fight back with water, but if you go overboard Leo will have little problem wiping the floor with you. Or you can just be over-leveled, and smash his face into the pavement.]

[Also, take note that once you go in, you won't be able to save until after you get out--be careful, be equipped, and make sure to save before going in. ]

[Air Museum, first floor]
YUKINO: Oh, great...elementary school kids came today on a field trip. What should we do, Maya-san?
MAYA: Before we go looking for the explosives we should get the kids out. I'm sure there are chaperones with them--if we explain the situation, I'm sure they'll help out. 
???: Heh heh heh… Heaven calls! Earth calls! People call! Um, what comes next? Defeat Evil! --right?
???: Right! Call on us to fight demons!

[On the top of a plane in the exhibition are two figures dressed in black with Zorro-like masks covering their faces. The woman has a hair band with small black horns on it.]

YUKINO: Tadashi! Tamaki! What do you think you're doing?
TADASHI: Aw, shucks, Mayuzumi-san! We went to all this trouble of getting masks, and then you go and blow our cover! As protectors of Sumaru, we chase after and stop the Shadows of Evil! I'll destroy all injustice!
TADASHI and TAMAKI: Ooof!
[They jump onto ground level.]
TAMAKI: Hey, are you guys okay?
TADASHI: Even if you fool the rest of the world, you can't hide from me! I've found out that you're pawns of Hitler!
TAMAKI : [giggles] Sorry about him. Tadashi's been listening to Okamura-sensei a little too much.
TADASHI : Ahh! Tamaki! We've gotta respect our client's privacy! Don't go blabbering their names!
[Tamaki points her sword at Tadashi.]
TAMAKI: How could you think that Yukino and her friends are working for Hitler? Use your brain for once, you dolt!
[Everybody shakes their heads and shrugs their shoulders. Tatsuya flicks his lighter.]
KING LEO’S VOICE: I've been waiting for you, Ill-Fated Stars! As a salutation, I'll ignite a welcoming blaze!
[Flames blaze and block the exit.]
MAYA: A, aaaaa! Nooooo!
KING LEO: Starting from the bottom up, there are explosives set to go off at regular intervals. Witch, this time you won't get away! All things are fated to be destroyed! It'll be good to get rid of all these brats in one go! Hi... ihi... hya-ha! Hya-hya-hyaaaa!
MAYA: I... won't run! I won't give up! Everyone! Let's get the children up to the roof! Unless I'm wrong, there are four wide floors to this building. You two, please find all the chaperones and get them to the roof!
[Tamaki and Tadashi nod, and go to do as they're told.]
MAYA: As for us, let's check floor by floor to make sure nobody's been left behind.
YUKINO: Let's go! We'll do this systematically.

[Second floor, Room with Children in it.]
MAYA: Anyone hurt? Okay, everyone. Stay low to the ground, don't push, and grab your asses and run to the roof. 

[Second floor, Lobby]
???: Ah! I'm gonna die! 
[From here you can see a floor down where there are a bunch of planes. A girl is down there, crying. She looks familiar.]
IXQUIC: No! Somebody, save me!
EIKICHI: Isn't that the cosplaying bathroom girl? What's she doing in the middle of the exhibition?
LISA: If she stays down there she'll die! What do we do?
MAYA: I'll go save her!
YUKINO: Maya-san, are you serious? The fire's too strong! You can't!
MAYA: "You can't" is what you say after you try! Tatsuya, find me some rope! When I get her, you guys can pull me back up.

 - I'll take care of it
 - Let Maya do it

[The dialogue and animation change only just enough to suit the names and faces of the situation you chose, but the better option is the latter--there are definite bonuses for letting Maya face her demons.]

EIKICHI: I'll go get the rope. Suou, I'm trusting Maya-nee to you.
[She goes down.]
IXQUIC: Oneechan! Save me!
LISA: Got it! Tatsuya, are you okay?
YUKINO: Okay, now PULL! 
[They pull Ixquic up. She runs off to the side.]
EIKICHI: Done! Now for Maya-nee.

[A small piece of animation comes up to help illustrate the following scene. They start pulling her up, but the fire burns away the rope. Maya falls, hand extended, and Tatsuya dips down a bit lower to try to catch her. An inhuman hand pulls Maya toward him.]

[If you chose to have Tatsuya save Ixquic, there is still animation--Maya and Tatsuya switch places.]

[The scene fades to black, and what comes up is a scene in front of the Araya Shrine. A young boy lies on the pavement, obviously hurt, a young man with a knife is laughing wildly, and the shrine is in flames. A girl is trapped inside it.]

GIRL IN SAILOR UNIFORM: Tatsuya-kun, Tatsuya-kun! 
APPARENTLY INSANE YOUNG MAN: Hi... ihi... hyahya! Hyahyahyaaaaa! 
GIRL IN SAILOR UNIFORM: Tatsuya-kun...run! Run!
[Tatsuya's Persona suddenly appears and strikes at the young man.]

[Back to present time.]

MAYA: Are you okay, Tatsuya-kun? You spaced out for a second there. How about you? Are you hurt?
IXQUIC: Oneechan!
[She hugs Maya, sobbing.]
IXQUIC: Wah! I was so scared!
MAYA: It's okay... you did your best. You did well.
[Ixquic wipes away her tears.]
MAYA: It's dangerous here, so you better go up to the roof. 
[After the plot scene, if you talk to the others...]
YUKINO: What was she doing down there? Was it that lunatic's idea, too?
LISA: When she fell, I thought my heart was going to stop! Tatsuya, please don't die.
MAYA: Say, Tatsuya, didn't you feel something when our hands slipped for that one second? Oh, it's nothing; I just thought I'd ask! I'm sure it was just me.
EIKICHI: It's burning up here. If we don't hurry up and catch him things are going to get worse.

[Third floor, Room with Kids]
YUKINO: All right! We found you! Now, now, don't cry! Go quickly to the roof!

[Third floor, Second Room with Kids]
EIKICHI: Sorry to keep you waiting! The teacher’s up on the roof. Go on! Don't rush!

[Fourth floor]
[A child is stuck in the elevator.]
ELEMENTARY SCHOOL KID: Help, help! Argh, urgh, urgh....
[Eikichi jabs at the elevator's buttons.]
EIKICHI: It's useless. The elevator's broken.
YUKINO: Get out of the way.
[She uses her Persona strength to open the door. Inside, the child is wedged tight.]
YUKINO: We don't have any tools with us; we have no choice. We'll have to pull him out. Suou, lend me a hand.
[They tug, and out pops the kid.]
MAYA: Are you hurt? The teachers are on the roof, so go! But this time, use the stairs.
[The kid nods and goes.]

KING LEO: Hyahyahyahyaaaaa! You've come far! But from here on in there are monsters! If you don't hurry you'll burn to a crisp! Ihi...hihya...hyahyahyaaaa!
MAYA: Why that little...! Everyone, are you okay? Be careful, we have to deal with monsters now. Tatsuya-kun, we've got no time-look closely, but make it fast!

[Fourth floor, Room with Kids]
TATSUYA:...
[The kids file out of the room.]
EIKICHI: They took one look at you and ran off, scared. You could be a little nicer.

[Fourth floor, Room with Kids the second]
LISA: There are you, kids! C'mon, don't cry! Cheer up and go to the roof, okay?

[Before the stairway to the fifth floor]
MAYA: Can you feel it? That resonance-it's him.
 

[The kids stand in one corner with Ixquic, and Tamaki and Tadashi try to protect them from King Leo.]
TAMAKI: Damn! Not even my demon friends can help!
TADASHI: You've made me really mad! I'm giving you five seconds! Uooooo!
[Tadashi goes to punch King Leo, only to get smacked silly. Tatsuya and the others show up.]
KING LEO: They've come... Ill-Fated Stars, this is it.
IXQUIC: Leo-sama! Why'd you set that fire? What about me, did you want to kill me too? Leo-sama, why?
KING LEO: You ask me why? That's because...
[He holds his sword to her throat.]
KING LEO: I hate brats! 
[He takes off his mask, revealing a face that's been half-scarred from a burn.]
MAYA: [gasp] Oh....
TATSUYA SUDOU: Witch! Don't tell me you've forgotten this face! You and that brat are the ones who did this to me!
MAYA: Tatsuya and I? I-I don't remember!
TATSUYA SUDOU: How long do you mean to keep this up? All right, have it your way. I've enjoyed myself watching you fools run around. However, know that you did not find all the explosives!

[He pulls out a bomb detonator, and presses a button. There is FMV of SMILE Hirasaka and Gold being blown up.]

EIKICHI: You didn't stick to the rules--you tricked us!
LISA: Keh he...you coward!
MAYA: I won't let you do any more damage! Let that child go!
TATSUYA SUDOU: If you had just died back then none of this would have happened. This is your fault, Witch! I can't wait until the Destruction Of Nahui-Olin! I'll let you burn here and now!
MAYA: What is this "Destruction Of Nahui-Olin?" What is the Joker's true purpose? Tell us!
TATSUYA SUDOU: It's the achievement of the Oracle of Maiya. What the Joker wants is to lead people toward Idealian. When the heavens form the Holy Cross and Destruction rises, the 15,000-year turning point will come! On that day, we will be closer to the gods as a new race of beings, and they'll lead this world to destruction!
MAYA: You plan to... change people? I've had enough of your delusions. Take us to the Joker! What's the Joker's true identity?
TATSUYA SUDOU: You still don't remember? People live in a world of lies; of course they'd forget even the Oracle of Maiya. Beneath that mask is a face as beautiful as a Goddess... the Joker's changed me. I'll clear the way of all obstructions!
[Tatsuya Sudou pulls out a pink flower.]
TATSUYA SUDOU: The Joker says to you, "remember that summer ten years ago."
LISA: Summer... ten years ago?
TATSUYA SUDOU: I have things to do. I'll take my leave now.
EIKICHI: Where do you think you're going? We're not letting you get away!
[The ground shakes.]
YUKINO: The Observatory Restaurant is moving? Oh yeah! The kids must have spread rumors!
[Tatsuya Sudou starts to leave.]
LISA: Wait! Is the Joker... is the Joker Big Sis?
TATSUYA SUDOU: What?! 
[A hole opens up in the floor--Ixquic grabs onto a piece of the floor, but Tatsuya Sudou falls through.]
IXQUIC: Noooo! Oneechan, save me!
[Maya helps Ixquic climb up.]
MAYA: Climb onto the blimp, and make sure the kids get on!
YUKINO: C'mon, everybody!
[The kids files into the blimp.]
TAKASHI-KUN: Who's gonna drive the blimp? Tama! I'm too young to die!
MAYA: Looks like it's time for Great Driver Amano to take charge! I can drive a blimp or two, no sweat! Over there must be the bridge.

[Blimp Bridge]
MAYA: Let's see, is this the handle? Huh? No brakes? Oh well. On the count of three!
[The blimp lurches.]
LISA: Ouch! Aiyaa? Maya-san, are you sure you can drive this thing?
EIKICHI: B-baby, don't say a word. If she doesn't, who will?
MAYA: Whooops! Just a small mistake. I've got it under control! Time for the real thing! Lift off, take two!

[There is FMV of the blimp triumphantly rising out of the flaming building, of it flying, and--oops, flames burst from within the blimp.]

EIKICHI: Jesus! The blimp's falling! Maya-nee, can't you do anything?
MAYA: It's broken! I can't use the controls at all!
LISA: Kau ming-ah! Somebody, help! I don't wanna die!
[They sense a familiar resonance.]
MAYA: King Leo? He lives! He's a danger to the children. Let's go! 

[Talk to the party]
MAYA: I got that feeling again... pain and insanity follow King Leo. But I won't give up! King Leo isn't my only opponent--I must face my own demons!
YUKINO: He's like a cockroach. Suou, let's go! We can't let Maya-san down!
EIKICHI: Not only do we have technical problems, but now that lion jerk shows up? I'll send him straight to Hell!
LISA: Damn it, at a time like this! We need to get rid of him fast!

[Outside, Tamaki and Tadashi are fighting Tatsuya Sudou.]
YUKINO: We'll handle this! Tamaki and Tadashi, please look after the bridge for us.
[Tamaki and Tadashi comply.]
TATSUYA SUDOU: Hyahyaaaaa! It hurts! It huuuuurts! That brat... you've done it again! You! You too! And the woman! And my old man who locked me up at that mountain! I'll kill you all! The bad guys are the ones who ignored me... I'm not my old man's puppet! I'll live as I please! Hii.... stop! Thevoicesthevoicesthevoicesthevoicesthevoicesthevoicesthevoicesthevoicesthevoicesthevoices! It's in my heeeeeaaad!
MAYA: You poor boy... you couldn't survive without blaming everybody and still had to rely on them. It's really your own fault that you couldn't live a normal life. Stop whining and pull yourself together!
TATSUYA SUDOU: Hi... ihi... hyahya! Hyahyahyaaaaa!

[Enter battle.]
TATSUYA SUDOU: Hyahya! Shut up, Witch! I'll kill you! I'll burn you! This is your fault!
MAYA: I won't run away anymore! How could I?

[After Battle]
TATSUYA SUDOU: Hi... hihyahyaa... this thing's going to crash... then you'll die, too!
TAMAKI: This ship's done for! At this rate, it's going to crash. Let's get off it while we can!
MAYA: Everybody, believe in me. I'll get you home safe and sound!
[The children nod. Yukino uses her Persona strength again to tear open a door. Tatsuya flicks his lighter.]

EIKICHI: Okay, guys...don't be scared... it's gonna be all right...
[He takes hold of a child on either side of him, walks to the door, and looks down.]
EIKICHI: I-It's so...high...
YUKINO: No time for doubts!
[She pushes him forward.]
EIKICHI: Geronimooooooo!
YUKINO: He'll be all right. C'mon, let's get a move on!
[Tatsuya does the same as Eikichi. The scene fades out.]
[There is FMV of the blimp burning and crashing.]

[Ebisu Beach]
MAYA: Wonderful! Everyone made it! 
[Tatsuya flicks his lighter.]
EIKICHI: Geez...today was tough. I can't believe I'm still alive.
AKARI: Oneechan! I'm sorry! I got in your way 'cause Leo-sama told me to. Thank you for saving me!
[Akari bows.]
MAYA: Don't worry about it! Just promise me this--from now on you'll value your life! And when you find a dream, don't ask anybody to grant it for you! A dream comes true from your own efforts. 
AKARI: Actually, what I really wanna be is a manga artist. My parents and teachers kept telling me, "study, study, study," but I've made up my mind! I'm gonna become a manga artist and write a story about you guys!
EIKICHI: A great idea, baby! You can show people wonderful things through manga. Okay! I'll give you a drawing lesson.
MAYA: Hey, Lisa. About what you said to King Leo on the roof-what did you mean by, "is Joker Big Sis?"
LISA: D-did I say that? You must have misheard me…
MAYA: ...
YUKINO: Come to think of it, Tamaki-chan said that Okamura-sensei is at Kuzunoha. That teacher seems to know something about the recent events; why don’t we go see her?

[Maya's cell phone rings.]

MAYA: Hello, Amano speaking.
ULALA’S VOICE: Hello, Ma-ya?
MAYA: Ulala? Great! Are you okay? GOLD blew up, so I thought--
ULALA’S VOICE: No time for that! Things have gotten worse!
MAYA: What? We're the Masquerade Terrorists? We're being accused of the bombings?
LISA: It's that rumor! The rumor about a group of five terrorists! They’re saying it’s us!
EIKICHI: T, this isn't funny! We're the ones who tried to stop them; they should be thanking us! Now we're criminals!
LISA: That's the least of our worries! If this rumor spreads, then we'll really become the Masquerade Terrorists!
YUKINO: Yeah, Lisa's right. We've got to do something.
MAYA: Our next move is to cancel out theirs. Fight fire with fire, so to speak.
[Maya talks to the kids.]
MAYA: Okay--everyone, I'm counting on you!
[The kids nod.]
MAYA: We'll fight rumors with rumors. By having those kids spread new rumors about us, the terrorist ones should go away.
MAYA: I hope it works, but we can't accomplish anything by just standing around talking. Let's go to Kuzunoha.
EIKICHI: Because of the accusations, it might be bad for us to walk in a group of five. Let's split up and meet there.
[Everyone goes their separate ways; Lisa tags along with Tatsuya.]
LISA: Wait, Tatsuya, take me with you! Please, Tatsuya, even only for a little while? I want to be with you.
[Tatsuya flicks his lighter.]

[Go to Kuzunoha.]
