Five seconds...Sarah will just shift her Arc back to Blade Mode and release the seal, switching it over to Predator Mode as she aims the slavering maw at the opening door.
"Next time, we're holding a vote before we do anything with password doors."
In a flicker of light, Seiten Taisei and Laksmi appear before him; the project image of Daidara-bocchi is too large to appear in this closed space, but his disembodied feet will do the honors.

The door continue to interpret their speech as password requests.
"Incorrect. Please enter the Password.
...Time's Up! Game Over."
Instead of the door opening, the floor under the group opened, leading them to slide and free-fall for a few minutes in a slide before landing in what looked like a giant circus ring. A reddish tent stood far above them. There was no sign of the slide that had lead them here. At least now they had much more of an area to work with. A snap, and there were headlights shining above, despite having no metal bars to hold them up there.
"AND FOR OUR NEXT ACT! THE MONSTER LION TAMERS!"
An invisible audience clapped while music played in the speakers. A tent door opened to the left, and three lions or more like chimeras really, slowly walked in, snarling, growling, roaring, hissing, basically anything that could be seen as an act of intimidation.
"WATCH, AND BE AMAZED AS THEY TAME THE BEASTS OF THE WILD, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!"
[Not exactly what Nano had been expecting. She cringes a little as the lights come on, holding her keyblade protectively in front of her as her Persona Geppetto floats behind her.]
The chimera's eyes all glow in unison as they let out a roar together, making even the tent and ground shake. The effect leaves Nano with a dark fear that she can't shake off.
They then took off, each one attacking their targets, extending their claws and slashing at them (medium physical damage) when they got close. Ugh, and their breath smell was something else; like a combination of rotting bodies, garbage and a few bad trips to the lavatory. For Nano, however, it was far far worse. The fear was making it appear twice as high and looking down, she imagined herself in her earlier years that she had been created.
The claws of the chimera bounce off Sarah's coat - with Fenrir out, she can't be harmed by physical attacks. She lunges forward, letting the maw of her God Arc clamp down on the goat neck of the Chimera before ripping it away. As the Arc swallows noisily, a savage grin spreads across her face as her mutated physiology responds.
"Releasing...!"
A spark of light slowly spirals down from her head to her feet before bursting into a brief flare as she starts to glow.
[The physical damage from the attacks bounces harmlessly off Nano, but the fear takes hold, and she immediately lets out a loud scream as she huddles down in place.]
N-nooo...!
[Looks like she's out of commission for the time being.]
The chimera's claws also bounce harmlessly off of Atsuro - indeed, they're reflected right back at the chimera and it may find itself with a few extra bloody adornments to its coat. Atsuro darts forward a few steps towards Nano before realizing he'd better try and actually do something more than walk in front of her.
"Back off!"
Daidara-bocchi's foot smashes down into the ground, unleashing a shockwave that ripples around the arena. ...It seems to be less of a physical attack than a mental one as it doesn't affect Nano, Atsuro, or Sarah at all.
"I've weakened their attacks and defenses!"
RED HANDS (DARK) - Pick 6 numbers out of 10 unless immune to dark, 4 if strong against dark
When the beasts realize that none of the targets can be hurt with physical attacks they switch tactics. As they roar into the sky in unison again, strange reddish hands descend and attempt to grab them and pin them down violently.
The hands grab them, holding down both their feet and hands. Fire erupts from their mouths at they attempt to burn their targets alive. With the power of Persona, they will not be killed, but fire still burns, protection or not...
[Note: Your character are still stuck for the next tag.]
More Screaming - passive Null Fire & Reflect Physical
[Nano is still affected by the fear from earlier, so the fire is completely terrifying to her at the moment. She screams as the attack hits, but considering her Persona both nulls fire and reflects physical, she's completely fine. She just thinks she isn't.]
Well, at least he had halved their attack earlier.
"Why don't we ever get magical hands that pin down our enemies."
Atsuro can only manage to grumble a little bit before the flames wash over him. On a scale of one to Maggots Hatching Out of Your Body, he rates it a solid Ouch.
The hands disappear in a flash of light as they begin to circle all of them, although their target appears to be Nano for the most part. If they can't burn or physically hurt her, they'll try to bash her right into one of the many pits that are suddenly appearing across the battlefield.
[Finally snapped out of the fear effect from earlier, Nano realizes the bind she's in. It doesn't really scare her any less, but hopefully her Persona can help her out.]
[Protected by the mystic properties of being a video game character, Atsuro's clothes are slightly sooty but otherwise intact. He spends a few moments dashing his hat against the ground to put out a flickering flame.]
...Hey! Pick on something your own size!
[...Daidara-bocchi wasn't quite the same size but the sentiment of the meaning was there. Or something. The giant slams its foot down on the chimera closest to Nano. In the meantime, Seiten Taisei who had definitely been here the whole time since he had been written in ten tags again and had Nulled the Phys attack and had been severely burned by the flames, gets himself together and swoops down to try and warp Nano away from the pits.]

Those didn't appear back home, but I'm pretty sure I'm safe in calling them Chimera.

Sarah's scale starts at Man-Sized Monster Biting You and tops out at Giant Tentacle Spider Lasers. This rates at Three-Foot Spike Impaling You.
Oh sorry I got mixed up by the order and thought Atsuro still had to go.
There's no guess how deep those could be...
