At first, Rise shook her friend to get her to wake up. "Nana-chan! Nana-chan! Don't do this! At least not here! Nana-chan! Wake up!" Unfortunately, no amount of shaking and shouting could do it. This was truly now, her mess to clean. The others would probably realize too late what just happened. The thought of doing this alone scared her. The responsibility and the consequence if she failed would be overwhelming for anyone.

However, before she could sink further into her fears, Gohan reached a hand towards her. She feared being alone? This hand told her otherwise.

'Together,' he proposed.

Maybe. Just maybe. She didn't have to do this alone after all.

Rise put Nana down and stood up. She had not even realized that she had been on the floor. "Together," she parroted. With him there, she was feeling stronger and bolder. "Saiyaman-san, call me Rise."

Lifting her hand in the air, she then shouted those familiar words. "Persona!"

Himiko ... was finally coming to play.
