Honestly, I need to get a life. The reason I've not been writing is that a, I haven't had ready access to a writing device with connection to the Internet, and b, I've been reading fanfiction. I have a lot of Persona stories in mah head, so Imma goinna write them down. I have the idea for story 3, but I might post it as a challenge, instead. Haven't decided.

Summary: Basic idea is that Souji is a distant relative of the Saotomes, and before P4, has to live with Genma and Ranma before they arrive in Nerima, before they fall into the Cursed Springs. Ryoga gets knocked off the cliff same as Canon, but Souji gets knocked into the spring of drowned manifestation of the inner psyche. He turns into Izanagi, and catches Ryoga. He does not turn into any other Personae, only Izanagi, as he is Souji's true persona, instead of being based on demons, which is canon in the Persona-verse as you fight them in the original.

While traveling, one Souji Seta, the Fred of the Inaba Scoobies, was traveling in China with distant relatives, his third cousin twice removed Genma, and his fourth cousin once removed, Ranma, as they went on a real-life training montage through China. While the two of them were both martial arts enthusiasts, Souji was not.

Souji was currently wandering around the training ground they were in, something to do with a curse, which both Genma and Ranma (or at least Genma, what Souji didn't know was that Ranma didn't know, and if he did, then he would have told him, and changed his fate from having a lot of girls chasing after him as a transgender to having a normal him being chased by a lot of girls. Hot girls.)

As Souji stood on a cliff, looking over the cursed springs training ground, he saw a guy with fangs and a bandana wandering around, lost. Somehow, Souji got the feeling that it wasn't new, but he ignored it. "Hi." he started.

(A/N: I'm going to try it from Souji's perspective, since I've never written in first person before.)

"Hi." I asked the strange looking guy with the badass fangs. He jumped, then took out an umbrella of all things, and pointed it at me like a sword. That could be either badass or fail, depending on if he actually knew how to use a sword.

"Who are you!" He demanded. "Names Souji, Souji Seta. You?" I responded. "Ryoga" he responded. "For some reason, that makes me think of a giant, yellow scarf. It's quite odd. Just so you know, this place is cursed. I'd watch out." "Really? Then why are you here?" he asked, clearly suspicious. "I'd rather be ANYWHERE ELSE, but my stupid relatives decided to have a training montage across China, and came here. I have no idea why."

"Would your relatives happen to have the name Saotome?" he asked, a bit suspiciously. "Unfortunately so. I just can't wait to see what happens when Ranma finds out what Genma did! kukuku." "Why, what did he do?" Ryoga wondered aloud. "He engaged him to at least four girls, and I get the feeling that somehow, he's going to make a lot more women want him. I have no idea, I just do." I stated. Little did I know, that it would in fact come true...

But Imma gonna ignore that. It's not important now. "I'm conflicted now. I was tracking Ranma down so that I could kick his ass for abandoning our duel, but now I feel a bit sorry for him." "Both of those are the correct response just pray for his sake that they're not fangirls."

In the distance, which remarkably sounded like it was coming from the training grounds, we heard a loud cry of "Oh gods no!" And then a loud splash. Both Ryoga and I peered over the cliff, where a panda was climbing out of a pool, grabbed Ranma's ankle, and pulled him into another pool. When he emerged, he had turned into a large-busted redhead woman, and started yelling at the panda, who was holding up signs.

"I guess we know what the curse is now." I commented, before I noticed that Ryoga, who was standing at the edge of the cliff, was standing on unstable ground. "Watch out!" I yelled, jumping at him as the ground fell.

As we fell, I thought briefly about having a montage of great accomplishments as I fell in slo-mo, then decided against it. So I grabbed Ryoga and threw him back at the cliff, where he used his umbrella to stay of. throwing him changed my direction, and I fell into one of the many random springs.

SIX MONTHS LATER...

As I rode on the train into Inaba, I fell asleep. I woke to a guy with a slasher smile, a foot-long nose, and bloodshot eyes, with a hot blond chick sitting next to him. I'm pretty sure we're in a limousine, and everything is blue.

"Welcome, to the Velvet Room." the man said, with a voice that was both creepy and dripping in awesome. "My name is Igor. I am delighted to make your aquantance. May I inquire your name, young stranger?" he asked, voice still awesome. but it was starting to seem creepier. "My name is Souji. Souji Seta. It is nice to meet you, Igor-san." I told him. "Indeed. I seem to have forgotten to introduce my assistant. Her name is Margaret." Mr. Creeper stated, still smiling. "Pleased to meet you, Margaret-san." (Insert story part where Igor tells the future, because it takes forever.)"Now, I believe that it i time for you to wake." And I did.

Timeskip past the awakening up to Chie, and Souji has avoided getting wet with cold water.

"So Souji." Yosuke asked. "What's with yor avoidance of water?" He asked. "Well, I was struck by a curse that activates in cold water. I don't like it much, but now I get what it means." I told him. "Really? Why, what is it?" He asked. "Well, my cousins decided to go on a training montage to China, and ended up going to the Jusekyo training grounds. My third cousin fell into the Spring of the drowned Panda, my fourth cousin the Spring of the Drowned Girl, and I fell intto the Spring of the Drowned Physical Manifestation of Ones Subconscious Personality. I call it the S.D.P. MOSP." "Okay then. What happens when you get wet?" Chie asked, joining into the conversation. "I turn into Izanagi."

"..."

"Yeah."

And I'm going to leave this here. I may work on it more in the future, but for now, it's \ust a sketch that may later turn into a full story, not just an Omake File.

I'm also going to move Persona Mix into a new story for those I've discontinued for now. May it rest in peace.
