Ayame decided to go somewhere fun today and found out about an arcade in the mall, although she was happy to play some games...Berith was not. "Really...What's so fun about these games...Why can't we train instead? That's game's in my eye." Berith said in Ayame's mind as she looked around for a game to play, having 10 coins that she had. "There fun and addictive Berith if you had the ability to play some of these you would have had fun." Ayame said in her mind as she looked around for a game to play.

And that was when she saw it.

Rapunzel...A very popular arcade game, and one of Ayame's favourites, she quickly ran towards the empty machine and placed a coin inside. "The tale of Rapunzel, Is this some kind of reenactment?" Berith said as Ayame corrected her persona. "Actually you're just playing The Prince trying to climb up the tower, which is cube shaped." Ayame said as she begun to play.

"I was such a pro of this game...But stopped playing it when the Arcade I go to in Kyoto got rid of it...I wish this was real because It look's fun."

"Yeah...I know how it feels...Disappointment."

Arcades. What better way to spend an afternoon of leisure with arcade games?

Well, Hideki had a couple other ways to spend the afternoon. This was another one of those moments in which he was pushed out of the house to do something, and while he really didn't complay much this time around, he simply wished his dad didn't need to be the one saying that he needed to get out and socialize.

But regardless, he felt that a good way to spend the afternoon was with arcade games.

Well, in reality, he was merely standing in front of the arcade, wondering whether he actually wanted to go to the arcade or not. His main worries were not the noises, or the sweating people clogging the place, or anything really. Like how he was in that video game store where he found Tarou and Ryouta, he simply didn't have a good past with video games...

...

"... Huh?" He then saw something on one zone of the arcade, someone familiar? Indeed, it was Ayame! Good, at least he had someone he knew to spend time with. Slowly, he walked into the arcade and went towards Ayame. "Ayame-san? Hey there!" He said, greeting her.

As Ayame continued to play, Berith sighed in boredom. "Don't put me off focus Berith, I almost made it to the final level...I just hope they don't ask me to pay for five or eight coins just to play it." Ayame said to Berith in her mind as he spoke again. "I still don't find this interesting...Huh?" Berith sounded surprised for a minute as Ayame managed to get to the final level. "Yes, I did it!" She said out loud...But due to so many people focused on other games, nobody noticed her...Well, one person was coming towards her and it was Hideki.

"Don't look now Ayame, you got company." Berith said to Ayame as she turned around to notice Hideki who greeted her. "Oh hello Hideki-kun, nice to see you here...Here playing stuff also?" Ayame said in curiously as she pointed to Rapunzel. "I'm here playing Rapunzel...I actually made it to the final level actually...Speaking of which." Ayame turned towards Rapzunel to prepare herself for the final level.

Only for it to tell her she needs five coins to play the last level.

"Ugh, arcades are getting more expensive these days." Ayame said as she turned back towards Hideki and smiled at him.

"So how are you doing today?"

"Uh...What about that final level, shouldn't you be doing that instead of talking to that boy?"

"I will soon Berith..."

He was actually quite surprised, the game Ayame was playing was known for being a bit difficult, so when he saw that she was in the final stage, he was simply surprised by it. She definitely had skills.

But despite not wanting to disturb her session, she eventually took notice of his presence. "Yeah, you can say that. Wow, you are at the final level of Rapunzel? That's pretty neat!" He said. It'd be cool to see her finish the game, but alas, the game placed a coin barrier before that were to be possible. At the very least the fair thing to do was to give her 5 lives for those 5 coins, as a preparation for the final level, right?

"Yeah, competing with home entertainment is never easy."
Hideki contemplated, before she asked how he was doing. "Oh, I'm fine. I was just a bit bored and decided to check out this place, maybe spend a few yens." Of course, he'd have to spend more than 'a few yen'.

As Ayame sighed, Hideki soon became impressed that Ayame had made it to the final level of a known difficult game with a lot of levels...Well, she had a reason to be on the final level so fast actually. "Oh yeah...I found an old password a few day's ago...It had weird symbols and I forgot why I had it...Until after seeing the symbols in Rapunzel that I realized that I wrote them down when I made it to level 63 of the normal story mode back in Kyoto...When I tried to use the machine again in the arcade I go to in Kyoto...It was sadly taken out due to people not being interested in it anymore." Ayame said sighing.

Hideki then spoke some more, mostly why he was here, he was going to play some games, as he was talking Ayame bent down beside the machine to input five more coins into the machine. "Why not try Rapunzel? After I try the final level...Or maybe that weird Mario Kart game over there where most of the characters are replaced by Namco mascots" Ayame said as she begun to play again. but not before pointing to Mario Kart Arcade GP for Hideki should he be interested...As she begun the final level she felt like she was missing something.

"What's wrong?" Berith said in her mind as Ayame continued to play with Hideki behind her. "I feel like I'm forgetting to do something in this game." Ayame said in her mind as Berith just scoffed. "Really...You're doing good so far, hell your even about to finish this game and rescue Rapunzel...Even if you're not the male knight that she dreams of." Berith said now sounding interested in the game, which made Ayame suddenly laugh in real life and turned back towards Hideki, now that she finished the game.

"Oh sorry about that...Oh look, maybe I got the good ending." Ayame said as she looked towards the screen.

And so the ending began to play.

"What do you mean you used a password that's not your own? Don't you see the cabinets? 'Winners don't cheat'!" He said, doing a small chuckle, without realizing that the cabinets say "Winners don't do drugs". She then pointed to a kart racing game, something that seemed relatively easy. "Actually, I'd try the kart racing first, Rapunzel is not exactly an easy game, from what I recall."

And he recalled well, because after seeing Ayame finish the game, he was surprised with hose difficult it was.

Once the ending began playing, that was a good sign from him to walk away for a bit. After all, he didn't want to get spoiled. "Hold up for a bit, I'll go get some tokens." He said, before going to a nearby booth to do the exchange. He didn't have a lot of yen in his hand, which made him only get a few tokens, definitely not to spend all at once.

When he came back, a jingle sound could be faintly heard in his pocket. "Alright, back. So, how was the game?" He asked.

"Oh, you know arcades these days...With password systems that if you forget you have to start the game over." Ayame said as she began to watch the ending as Hideki left to get tokens.


The Prince managed to make it to Rapunzel's tower and made a ladder of silk so he and his lover can leave the tower before an evil Witch comes and screws everything up, however just as he applied the finishing touches on the tower...Rapunzel began to laugh evilly causing The Prince to turn around, Ayame gasped when she realised she was watching the bad ending. "Oh no, this is the bad ending...Now I know what I was missing, there were objects I needed to collect in some of the levels that would change the ending." Ayame said as Rapunzel soon turned into The Witch and gloated to The Prince before firing a magical blast at him.

Usually if Ayame did get the item's she mentioned then a barrier would protect The Prince from the blast, however without those items, The Prince was unfortunately blasted out of the tower and fell to his blinding doom in a rose bush...Ending the game on a sour note. "Wow talk about bad luck." Berith said as Ayame sighed in disappointment as Hideki returned with his tokens. "I got the bad ending." Ayame said as she heard a jingle coming from Hideki's pockets, he also earlier that he wanted to try a kart racing game, although she was unsure if it was The Mario Kart one.

"Oh I'll join you Hideki-kun, let me just get tokens for myself as well...Rapunzel was one of the few games to accept real coins." Ayame said as she went off to trade her remaining four coins and got...Four tokens in return. "A bit cheap don't you think?" Berith said as Ayame replied back while walking back toward's Hideki. "That's life for you Berith." Ayame said to her Persona as she made it back to Hideki.

"Ready for a race?"

Pretty much, arcades are a thing that are still evolving in Japan, so it wasn't surprusing to hear about password screens. However, that wasn't exactly on Hideki's mind as he was coming back to Ayame, who looked pretty disappointed. "Aaww. Oh well, better luck next time!" He said in reassurance, before she went ahead and get some tokens for herself.

Now that the Mario Kart invitation was open, he decided might as well get on the seat before someone else tried to occupy them. He went towards one of them and was about to insert one token, before Ayame reappeared with tokens of her own. "Yep! Better be ready." He said, as the inserted one token. "So, which circuit should we choose?"

"Yeah I can just restart later." Ayame said as she chuckled slightly and followed Hideki into the Mario Kart GP arcade and placed a token on the player two side and chose Miss Pac-Man, Berith was just silent and watched...In his own way. "Ahh Miss Pac-Man if you weren't created then I probably wouldn't be interested in you and your Husbands and child's history." Ayame said as she looked at the five circuits the arcade has. "Hmm...How about a hard one, like the Bowser cup since this our first time playing and we don't have the sixth cup yet?" Ayame said as she turned towards Hideki who was still looking for a character to play as.

"Who are you going to play as Hideki?" Ayame said as he warned Ayame that she better be ready.

"Of course I am, the question is are you?"

"Oh wow, that one looks complicated." He said, looking at the circuit aptly named after the main antagonist. Something like that was bound to be a tough challenge, and given who Ayame mentioned how is her first time playing as well, it would probably be a catastrophe for the both of them.

"Alright, I'll play as... Luigi." He said, choosing the green character. "Oh yeah, this will be fun!" He said, as all the options were set, and everything was ready to begin.
