Seiji was actually a bit taken aback by Kaede's response. There seemed to be more to her (Her? Yeah, sure, why not, let's go with 'her' ) Than a foul, mouth, a beret and a lack of regard for manners. He was about to say something more when Naoya's Shadow started mutilating his body.

"What the hell?!" He stammered out. He was going to run after, but when Eri had done so already rather than stuble into her, he summoned his mask and quickly had Imhotep cast a Dia on Naoya. "Stop it! Goddamnit!"

Aleph looked at everyone as the scene happened. The beret girl(probably a girl?) seemed somewhat offended about Naoya insulting her beret, Jiro seemed to be trying to do damage control for some reason, then Naoya spoke. Aleph watched as Naoya spoke. Unexploded bomb? Visions? The voice didn't sound normal. It didn't like the Naoya Aleph knew. And what was it talking about?

And suddenly, whatever was possessing Naoya took a knife and stabbed Naoya in the leg. Shit.

Aleph jumped as Naoya seemed to realize his pain, looking like he was about to fall over. "Naoya-san!" Aleph cried. "Shit!"

He had never seen Naoya act like this before. Not knowing what else to do, Aleph followed after Seiji, summoning Adonis and casting Dia on Naoya.

Kaede narrowed her eyes, watching the Shadow very carefully. Shadows were honest; that was part of their nature, but sometimes the honesty was in the meaning of the words, not what was actually being said. But even more concerning was the mention of visions. Before she could say anything else, the Shadow clearly pulled out a knife.

"No, wait--" The shadow drove the knife into Naoya's leg at this point and shortly after appeared to relinquish control. As Naoya began to fall over, Kaede ran over to him and dropped to her knees.

"Hey! Imoto!" Kaede said. "Blink twice if you're coherent, blink once if we need to take you to a hospital! Blink three times if that Shadow asshole is still controlling you, and then try to stab me!"

Shit shit shit. He couldn't do a damn thing and Naoya had just stabbed himself.

Come on.

He tried to call forth Kamina, and nothing.

Come on.

Still nothing.

COME ON!

Yes, something! Kamina appeared and cast a Dia....oh that didn't feel good. Oh fuck that hurt. A headache was now steadily working it's way through his skull. He felt woozy and...

"Hurk!"

He was puking again.

Naoya squinted and then blinked twice. It seemed that just about everyone was casting healing spells on him, which was an odd feeling. More color drained from his skin, and the flesh of his face seemed to slowly draw tighter: the bones of his face projected sharply through his skin as his shadow leached away more of his strength.

He released the knife, and the healing magic forced it from him, leaving a nasty-looking scar in its place. In all honesty, no such scar should have remained: a persona user at his degree of development should have had unbroken skin after such a relatively weak attack.

"'M just goin' t' lay here for...f'r a bit. Don' mind me."

His voice was weak, but his eyes were back to their normal color -- brown mingled with a bit of green -- though they were unfocused and tired-looking. There was a spot of blood on the bandana he wore around his head, on the left side above the ear, though the immediate source of it wasn't visible.

"Jus'..." he managed, a bit stronger, and made a weak waving motion with his right hand.

"...does this clockwork hand follow you... or guide you?"
"...Oh, Naoya-kun..." Eri sighed, drawing her hands back. She'd thought she was doing right by keeping herself together through this, but the moment a curve-ball had come, she'd fallen apart. The woman stood up and backed away, letting Seiji, Aleph, and Kaede have room. When Takenaka summoned his Persona to add his own healing in, though, he threw up, and Eri snapped out of her self-pitying moment of weakness--and then she was by Takenaka's side, holding his shoulder and rubbing his back.

"Easy there, easy. If all of those others have healing magic, that's enough. You just take it easy." And then, leaning in to whisper: "And don't worry about what that girl with the beret said--I won't let anyone hurt you. Okay?"

"Yeah…okay."

Seiji's 'gaze' turned to the scar on his friend's leg and he frown frowned. "…this isn't quite done, is it?" Just the same, he tried more healing. He was worried it wasn't gonna work, but he had to be sure.

"What's going on? All I got was what I heard from the blotter…" Seiji was lucky. The only Shadows he really had to deal with weren't the kind that existed in your own head. To say his experience with things like their current situation was limited was a big understatement.

Aleph smiled and sighed in relief as Naoya spoke weakly. Though, he still didn't look so hot, so Aleph felt the need to stick around to make sure he would be okay. Aleph backed away a little bit to give Naoya some air. He waved his hand towards the others as well. "Give him some air, guys." Aleph said.

Aleph scratched his head as Seiji tried to heal the scar on Naoya's leg. "I don't know." Aleph said. "I just got here and found Naoya-san and Jiro-kun here, and also Kyo-san's mom."

She gave Jiro a pointed look as Eri bent over him, then turned toward Seiji. "I'm not entirely sure, but the Douchetwins said Takenaka over there probably attacked Nakamura, and while those guys are a bunch of douchebags, they don't tend to lie about shit that's dangerous to us. And then apparently Imoto flipped when he went to go check on Takenaka afterwards." Kaede then turned toward Naoya and she narrowed her eyes at him. There was a spot of blood on his bandanna that hadn't been before, and that wound on his leg, which should have healed completely, had scarred over...

"Imoto, your head's bleeding, but I can't tell from where," she said. "I'm going to take your bandanna off so I can get a better look at it before I go healing things, okay?"

She brought her hand down to the bandanna and began to undo the knot holding it there.

Jiro gave an involuntary shudder at the comfort. Nobody had actually done that to him except his own mom. Why the hell was this random woman he didn't even know going out of her way to actually be nice? Especially since he'd just confessed to stabbing somebody. If circumstances were different, he may have even wanted a hug. Shit, he still did.

"Just...get me outta here...please."

If Naoya was being looked after by a third tier, he'd be fine right? And if this lady didn't want to help him after all? He could force a Bash jump or two. But oh fuck did his head hurt. It felt like his skull was on fire. He could only guess as to why it was happening. Most likely, some sort of punishment from his own body for forcing out his persona like that. He couldn't be sure though.
