The shadow had one brow raised at his array of poses, unimpressed. She scoffed his tacky costume and tackier posing. "Risette-chi, you have really strange taste. Are you really dating him?"
"Mou! This is not a date!" However, Rise was still blushing as she said this. Not that she would mind going on a date with him, but who in their right mind would choose to go on a date here? She might not have the most normal life, but that didn't mean she would mind having a normal date or two. "Don't talk bad about Saiyaman either! He is a hero! He is everybody's hero!"
But there was no time to complain about her strange dating life. She ran to where Nana was still lay unconscious and to her relief, Nana was breathing. There were two things she noticed about her friend. Nana looked almost gaunt and had dark circles under her eyes. She looked so different from the fresh and preppy trainee she trained with.
"Rise?" Nana opened her eyes. "Why? Where?" She suddenly gasped in shock to see so many people with her face around them.
"We are you!" The shadows answered the question they knew she was about to ask. "We are your many faces. You just hate being in a group, don't you? Why do you need a group when you can play every role by yourself? Cute? Sexy? Sporty? We can do it all! Isn't that more interesting? More interesting than Risette-chi."
Rise hugged her shaking friend tighter. This scene. All of this was so similar to her battle with her shadow. Her various images surrounding her and mocking her.
"That is not true," her friend whispered. "Rise is my friend. She deserved to go solo ... "
"But we all know that you think you deserve it more! We are you after all!"
"No! No! No!" Rise tried to shush her to keep her from saying the words she knew would lead to trouble. However, it doesn't work. Nana refused to believe. "No! You are not me!"
That was all she needed to say. All of a sudden, her other selves seemed to melt away around them and slithered towards the stage. Smoke began to gather around the stage and when it dispersed in front of them was a black, sludge-like monster with white masks all around it. "I am your true self!"
Of course, Nana chose this moment to pass out --- leaving Gohan and Rise to take care of this mess.
