New Moon

So basically this is the first time i've written a Fanfic and actually typed it up. This is more of a hobby and just practicing my skills since i'm great at creating story's with my own characters and shit, but when it comes to taking characters that aren't mine and becoming them... i'm a bit rusty

Anyways i hope you enjoy it, Persona 3 Portable is a favourite of mine, and i absolutely love Shinjiro's character.

Disclaimer and all that: i don't own P3 or anything to do with it, if i did then that would be cool

CHAPTER 1

Minako Arisato stood with her jaw to the floor as she gazed up at her new school. Her auburn hair, while in a pony, blew in the soft wind that seemed to come and go as it please.

Just three months ago she was living an average high-schoolers life. The last thing she would imagine back then was finding out that she was the heir to her family's fortune and status. It all started when she arrived home one day after clubs activities to find a limo parked outside her small home where she lived with her aunt and uncle. When she got inside she was introduced to her grandparents who she'd never knew existed, who had came to tell her about her fortune.

Next thing she knew they were placing her into a new elite school, Gekkoukan High School in the town of Iwatodai. And here she is now. Standing in front of said school, frozen in place.

After a few minutes she decided that her standing catching flies wasn't going to help. Looking around she found the gatekeeper and showed him her ID and enrollment form. Scratching his head he leaned back and pressed a button and opened the schools gates.

"Your tour guide should be right inside the front steps of the main hall, just follow the path" his breath smelled like cigarettes she noted. Nodding she picked up her side bag and started walking in. to her sides she noticed students all dressed in neat uniforms chatting with one another, having lunch as it was their lunch break it seemed. Minako looked down at what she was wearing, an orange V-neck t-shirt and a black mini with her famous pink high top convers. She felt out of place already.

Ignoring the stairs she got she quickly walked into the school where she was easily overwhelmed with the size and how cleaned and fancy everything looked. Shifting her weight from one leg to another she looked around and started wondering what her guide looked like.

"Are you Arisato?" Minako turned her head to see a brunette standing in front of her. Her uniform was a little different to everyone around them as she wore a pink sweater overtop.

"Y-yes, I'm Minako Arisato" she bowed her head a little making the brunette giggle.

"No need to be formal with me, I'm Yukari Takeba. I'm here to be your guide" she smiled sticking out her hand. Minako quickly shook it; "your bags are already in your room since everyone who attends Gekkoukan must live in the dorms as you should know if you read the handbook"

Whoops, I knew there was something I forgot to do Minako silently kicked herself for forgetting such an easy thing to do. She was so caught up in the whole thing that she forgotten to read it.

"If you follow me I'll show you to where your classroom will be" Yukari started walking with Minako tailing behind her, "I'll also show you to where the cafeteria is and also where the dorms are. There should be a map in your handbook so make sure you re-review it so you don't get lost on your first day like I did"

Yukari showed Minako where he classroom would be and she gasped at how large it was and how modern it was, and when showing where the cafeteria was, she was surprised at how nice their cafeteria was and how high quality the food is.

"Yeah we've got it pretty nice, but what do you expect from such a high class school" Yukari smiled while she walked down the halls.

"So what kind of classes would I be taking…?" Minako asked. Yukari blinked at this.

"It was in the handbook… you didn't read it did you" she smirked making Minakos face turn a shade of red.

"Well I meant to! It's just… well… I… forgot" Minako decided that arguing wasn't going to help her situation.

"Don't worry, no body reads that thing anyways" a different voice joined in on the girls conversation. They turned their heads to see a male wearing a baseball cap walking their way.

"What do you want Junpei" Yukari rolled her eyes, glaring at the boy.

"I just want to come and say hi to the new transfer student" he turned towards Minato and stuck his hand out, "I'm Junpei Iori! The best guy you'll meet at this school"

"Can you go one day without hitting on a girl, leave the poor girl alone" as Yukari said this Minako decided to shake his hand anyway.

"It's ok, I'm Minako Arisato" she smiled. Junpei just smirked at Yukari.

"Well well, I have to go show her to the girls dorms" Yukari grumbled pushing Minako away from her back.

"I can show her to the girls dorm if you want"

"Back off stupid" Yukari laughed walking away with Minako.

"It was nice to meet you!" she yelled back at Junpei who laughed and waved goodbye to the two girls.

Soon the two stood in front of what Minako guessed to be the dorms. They were styled like the school, yet when the two walked in they gave off a very high-class feeling yet more of a home feeling. The two walked up the stairs together until they were on the second floor.

"Your room is at the end, on the right, 2-19" Yukari looked though an envelope that she retrieved at the sign in sheet when the two walked in. she fished out a pair of keys, "I'm on the third floor in room 3-1 if you need anything, but otherwise you should spend the rest of the day unpacking" she said a farewell and headed up the stairs leaving Minako by herself in the halls.

She walked down until she hit the last door. Using her keys to open the door she gasped at her room when she entered.

The walls were a light pink, with wooden floors. She had a small living room that branched off into a small bedroom. There was a door beside her bedroom that was closed, that when she opened, revealed a bathroom that had a shower and bath. She dropped her bag on the floor and noticed her luggage sitting beside a white couch in the middle of the room. There was a TV across from the couch, and also in the living room there was a coffee table and a mini fridge. In her bedroom she noticed a twin bed on one side by the window and on the other side a dresser and desk.

She collapsed on the bed mumbling, "this must be a dream" over and over again. She then started unpacking all her stuff to make it more her own. When she opened the dresser she noticed some school uniforms that she ordered all ready for her.

Finally when she was done she walked out of her room she made her way up to the next floor to explore the dorm and saw Yukari sitting in the third floor common room chatting with a girl with short blue hair.

"Oh hey Minato! This is Fuuka Yamagishi. She's a friend of mine and she lives on the third floor" Yukari introduced the two.

"Hey nice to meet you, how do you like it so far?" her voice was quiet and shy.

"Its really nice, way nicer then my old school" Minako sat down with the two. She noticed that the two had changed into something more comfortable. Yukari, wearing a pink tank top with brown pants, and Fuuka, with a white cardigan and a black long skirt.

"Well it sure is a change" Fuuka giggled.

"So I'm planning on hitting the town for a little bit, anyone want to join?" Minako asked the two; since she still hasn't explored the town she was curious.

Fuuka and Yukari gave each other a look, "you can't go out on town unless you have a letter from the principal and your guardian signed…" Yukari explained, "its like, a day pass"

Minako's face dropped. That was not what she was hoping for. After saying goodnight to the two she headed back down to her room. Pacing around she finally made up her mine

I'm just going to sneak out… how hard could that be she thought was she changed her outfit into some blue skinny jeans, a white shirt, and a lime green hoody. She kept her hair down and waited until most of the other residents has retired to their room (which you have to be in by 12) and quietly walked into the hallway.

After slowly making her way down the hall to the stairs she walked down making sure that all was silent, she walked quickly to the door and walked out of the dorm.

Hiding behind various trees she did a good job at avoiding random night staff and made it to the gate. Keeping a far distance from any view she found a tree that was close to the wall that surrounded the campus. Finding it easily climbable she made her way up and across a branched that stretched across the wall. She found it highly amusing and kind of sad about how easily it was to sneak out.

When she was finally over she did a sweep to make sure she could get back. And after finding a way back she quickly made her way into town.

Her first stop was the Port Island Station. She walked the streets and explored the different places. She stopped in her tracks to someone yelling. She then heard other voices following after one. She followed the noise to a back alley where a group of punks were hanging out. There was music blaring and everyone was sitting and drinking and having a good time. A few noticed her but said nothing, just a nod in her direction. She looked down to notice that her cloths were dirty and ruffed up from her sneaking out.

She guessed in their eyes she was one of them. She smiled to herself, feeling proud.

"What are you smiling about" came a low voice from behind her. She let out a yelp and quickly turned around.

There he stood, in a long burgundy pea coat with black pants and brown shoes. He had shaggy brown hair that was covered by a beanie. He was leaning back on a wall glaring at her from under that earlier mentioned beanie. Minako just shifted awkwardly, deciding on how she should reply.

"I'm just enjoying the scene in front of me," she finally answered looking back at the people having fun.

"You're new," he just mumbled still staring at her, "what are you doing out here so late"

"Just trying to have some fun, what's it to yeah?" Minako didn't like this guy. He just kept staring at her. It was like he was trying to pierce her with his stare alone. Soon he let out a sigh and shook his head.

"You shouldn't be around here, it's a bad crowd" he glanced over at the punks who were getting drunk and loud.

"And how do you know that I'm not part of a bad crowd already?" Minako put her hands on her hips acting tough. The boy just coughed and gave her a look that basically told her to stop bullshitting herself, "don't give me that look!"

"Just keep telling yourself that," he mumbled.

"Why you-" Minako sentience was cut of by one of the punks yelling, and soon two of them started fighting. She watched as one slugged the other in the face making him stumble backwards. After regaining himself he tried to punch the other but missed as the other moved out of the way. Swearing their yells got louder and louder with each blow, and the watchers started cheering on the one they thought was going to win. After the sounds of sirens filled the air.

"Shit! The cops are coming" a tough guy yelled. Everyone started scrambling. Minako heard the sirens get close and stood shocked not knowing what to do in this sort of situation. Looking around in panic as the others were running in all sorts of directions. A firm grip on her arm snapped her out of the panic as she felt someone tug at her. She turned her face to see the guy she was talking to earlier.

"Follow me" was all he said as he led her away from the panic and noise. They ran through different paths and alleys and after about five minutes of different turns they finally stopped.

"Where are we?" Minako panted trying to catch her breath.

"The outskirts of the station" he started walking away from her. But when he turned around she was still following her, "w-what do you want" she just blinked at him.

"Aren't you going to tell me your name?" she tilted her head.

"W-why would I do that?" he looked away feeling weird. He helped her get away, what more does she want?

"Because I think it would be the nice thing to do, here I'll go first, I'm Minako Arisato" she stuck her hand out at him as if wanting a handshake. He stared at her for a bit then pulled his beanie over her eyes and looked away.

"Shinjiro Aragaki" he glanced back at her as she put her hand back at her side.

"Now that wasn't so hard now was it" she grinned at him. Was she teasing him now? He just glared at her, "so since this is a date you should take me somewhere for a drink" she spun around walking ahead of him.

"When did this become a date? I don't even know you." What is she doing? Shinjiro just shook his head.

"It became a date now I decided, and also you know my name" she turned and looked at him, "that's all you need to know"

"No way, I'm leaving you here" he just stared her down not showing off any emotion.

"You don't have to be such a sourpuss" she pouted crossing her arms, "what's up your ass?" this just earned her a glare.

"You're out late, somewhere you aren't familiar with, with a complete stranger…" he started walking closer to her, "don't you think you should be a little more cautious"

"I think I'm pretty safe at the moment" Shinjiro, raising and eyebrow, kept walking closer to her.

"Are you sure" he was close enough that he reached out and grabbed her wrists and held them tight. She started struggling as he brought his face down to hers. He stopped when his face was right up close to her, "you shouldn't trust others so easily…"

She had frozen completely, staring wide-eyed into his grey eyes. He made a 'tck' noise and let go of her and took a step back while shoving his hands into his pockets. after a couple of seconds she finally blinked and focused her eyes back on Shinjiro.

"Dude personal space" she gave him the middle finger, not finding his threat amusing as he just smirked at her reaction. He just shrugged and looked away.

"Shit!" Shinjiro looked back at Minako to see her checking her cellphone for the time. She looked up at him, "I have to go! I've been out too late and I have things to do tomorrow!" she started to look around finding the path back to the station. when she found it, she started running but stopped and turned back at Shinjiro before leaving, "I'll be looking forward to our date Shinjiro!" and with that she left.

Shinjiro watched as she ran into the distance. His silently wondered to himself if he was going to see her in the near future again.

Alright, so that's the ending of the first chapter. I don't know when the second chapter will come out or anything. I also hope that I'll be able to portray the characters the best as i can, and hopefully my writing skill will increase so i can give readers a better story.
