A/N: This takes place after the end of Season 6 of Totally Spies, and after the story of PlayStation 3 game: Persona 4 Arena Ultimax. If you haven't seen any Totally Spies, I recommend at least trying the fantastic movie, which features the origin. Persona 3, Persona 4 Arena, and P4A Ultimax playthroughs may be found on YouTube, or you can buy the games! Persona 3 has four movies which compile the story. This is my longest fic yet, and is complete. Thank you for reading- enjoy.

Apartment Building, Tatsumi Port Island, Japan

Cars and pedestrians occasionally pass by a nondescript middle-class apartment on the eastern side of the impressive city. In the early evening, lights illuminate various windows of the structure.

Behind closed blinds of one window, a poorly-shaven thin man with receding hair and bad facial skin gazed into the computer's monitor, poring over data. He typed until a window with security camera footage appeared. When he pressed play, a night scene appeared, with boxes being transferred from a long black car to the entrance of a police station. The man noticed a woman in a white fur coat with a rapier, supervising the transfer.

He looked over a picture of a group of eclectic young people, including this woman. He looked over data on unusual artifacts, then noted the address of the police station with an intent look in his eyes.

The man then read over a journal entry from a man named Jin:

Tonight, Takaya and I are going to Tartarus to stop those punks from interfering. Not that they have a chance against almighty Nyx. Takaya and I will be outnumbered, but our resolve is set.

When Nyx comes, the world will be cleansed and reborn. Dad, Kaito, if you somehow read this, I hope you understand how important this is to me. Goodbye.

Kaito frowned in concern with the difficulty of what he must attempt.

Those punks were responsible for Jin's passing, Kaito thought. But my brother deserves to have his work carried on. I must not fail.

Mali-U Humanities Building

Alex, a slim, athletic Latino girl with a pixie cut, dressed in a blue long sleeve top, black jeans and flats is seated near the back of a classroom, using a mechanical pencil to fill in answers on a paper.

The class full of test-takers does the same, some erasing, leaning back and shifting a bit in their seats.

Students begin to finish, grab their belongings, and leave their tests on the teacher's desk before exiting the well-lit modern classroom. Alex checks over her work and is one of the last to leave.

Walking down a white, spacious hallway to the building's exit, she smiles at a small group of familiar classmates chatting. They'd reached the set of double doors to the exit just before her. A stocky guy with short brown hair holds the door for her and the others as they exit.

"Alex, how's it going?" he asks cordially.

"Good, now that the test's over," she replies with a smirk, "how 'bout you?"

"Okay, thanks to all that studying," he said, earning a nod from an athletic young Asian man nearby.

The group made small talk about the test and a few other subjects before parting ways. Dropping her backpack on the nearest bench, Alex checks for messages on her phone, takes a drink from her cylindrical metal water bottle, and takes a seat to relax.

Mali-U Library

Sam, a striking redhead with a unique center peak to her hairdo, sports a cream-colored long sleeve top, brown leggings, and leather boots. She finished reviewing notes with a few other students in a comfortable study room. They gathered up their belongings and exited the lower-ceiling room positioned against a wall into the spacious center of the library.

"Take care Sam," said a dark-skinned young woman dressed in a purple top and long white skirt.

"Bye Becky!" replied Sam. The others all gave parting words to one another before splitting up.

After exiting the through one of the main entrance doors to the large structure, Sam checked her phone briefly, then calmly took in the familiar sights of the beautifully landscaped path leading to the central part of campus. Students made their way to various parts of campus. She smiled to those she made eye contact with, content with the day.

Mali-U Creative Arts Building

The tall, modern building on the west side of the campus stood out with its unique giant front wall of continuous windows, edged with chrome. Students flooded out, some chatting in small groups. Clover, a blonde young woman with a unique forelock hairstyle, was talking with a female student with curly brown hair wearing a black leather jacket, and a tall young man with glasses and an hooded sweatshirt and jeans.

"Another week- Well, gotta go. Take care everyone!" the brunette called out to the others.

"Yup, see you girls," the guy said to the others with a slight wave.

"Okay, see you Monday," Clover said to the classmates, separating from them to take another path.

Dressed in a pink square neck short sleeve top, white pants, and matching sneakers, Clover checked her phone, then noticed a growing number of students nearby. Someone at a podium was making a speech, but Clover was focused on getting to the Cafe to unwind after finishing another week.
