Chapter Twenty One: "Pandora"
"Wait, chapter 21? what? what stuff you peddlin' Incep?"
Incep: a Sequel... thats what! Henchman Explain!
Incep's Henchman: hello, welcome back... or hello, nice to meet you, if you're new... this is Persona: Ara Magnus, or Altar of the Great. this follows the Events of Persona: Prae Anima, i'd recap... but then you wouldn't have a reason to go read it, now would you?
Incep: by the way, the begining of this story will have... errr ALOT of drama in the begining... so yeah, thought you'd like to be warned... Oh, And Review, it lets me know you care
Claire: might i add, if you didn't read the Prae Anima-Ara Magnus OVA, you should, then this will make more sense...
~~~~~~ Midnight ~~~~~~
The Hospital... two weeks after the show down with Naoto, Lucifer, and Helel
C. Rukikono ~!~ Status: Stable
T. Kagura ~!~ Status: ICU
M. Ariseta ~!~ Status: Critical Condition
N. Shirogane ~!~ Status: Deceased
M. Arisato ~!~ Status: Coma
Adachi-"Damn, well... at least Rukikono-chan is in Stable Condition... but ICU... damn"
Souji-"on a different subject, Adachi... thanks"
Adachi-"For..."
Souji-"for making my time in Inaba, well... Interesting"
Adachi smirked "Anytime"
Souji-"I'll chase you to the ends of the hell if that fog crap starts again"
Adachi-"You mean the Bath House, right?"
They two shared a laugh
Ruki-"hey... guys..." Ruki came from around the corner Limping on cruches
Adachi-"Good evening Rukikono-chan, they released you already?"
Ruki-"call me Ruki!, and no... they said i'd had visitors... so i came to see who..." she started weeping "...i'm so dumb... to think it was my parents..."
Souji put his hand on her shoulder "Oh come on, atleast you're ok, Thanatos was worried sick..."
Ruki-"R-really?"
Thanatos-"so help me you EVER do that attack again... you'll end up in one of these!" he turned his back to her, showing her the floating coffins
Ruki-"i'm sorry... everone..., Wait!, is Kagi ok?"
Adachi-"ICU, and Ariseta is in Critical Condition... damn... what happened to him... its like he..."
Souji interupted "Fought his shadow?"
Adachi nodded, then Ruki asked "Shadow... like the things we fight?"
Souji-"not entirely... the Shadow we refer to, is YOUR own Shadow, caused by repressed feelings... dangerous beasts..."
Adachi-"these Shadows are the reason Souji, and his freinds HAVE personas, Shirogane went through it too, argh, what was her deal again?" he looked at Souji
Souji-"in the line of work her family had been in for generations, it WAS a mostly a male work habitat, and with new techonology, being a Detective was a dying job..."
Ruki-"i feel so bad for her... i kinda wish i remembered what i did, i remember yelling 'Wrist Popper'... then blackness"
just then a boy, taller than Souji, with Blond hair, a Skull T-shirt, a Jacket... that clung to him like a cape, and a bullet necklace walked into the hospital
Adachi-"Tatsumi-san?"
Souji grimmanced "hey... Kanji"
Kanji-"so... is she..." Souji walked over Kanji and explained the events of the past couple weeks
Ruki whispered something to Adachi "who's he?"
Adachi whispered back "one of Souji's Teammates, Kanji Tatsumi, he's also a persona-user, his dungeon was a bath house, he was sorta 'off' about his 'preferences'... lets say"
Ruki blushed "O-oh..."
Kanji walked up to Ruki "Yu told me what happened... i'm sorry... its not like her to just go missing... then again i thought she was on another case" he squatted getting eye-level with her
Ruki-"i'm sorry... i wish i hadn't... she was under..."
Kanji interupted "Lucifer's control?, yeah like i said, Yu told me..."
Ruki leaned into him and gave him a hug and started crying "I-i-i'm sorry for killing your friend... really..."
Kanji-"it's not a problem... really..., if she was under Lucifer's control... then would there have really been any turning back?... you defeated an enemy... thats all that matters"
Thanatos helped Ruki back onto her cruches
Kanji turned to Souji "Well, its been real Senpai... oh, and dont forget to visit, Rise is going nuts without you there"
Souji chuckled "yup, that sounds like Rise, seeya"
Kanji left, an a unfamilar face came down stairs... well unfamilar to everyone... except Thanatos
Thanatos-"M-Minako!"
the Reddish Pink haired girl, she had 'XXII' cleaverly arranged with her hair pins, she had her hair tied up, her eyes matched her hair, she wore a S.E.E.S. wristband... and had an Evoker strapped to her Waist... mostly concealed.
Minako looked at him "Thanatos?"
Ruki-"who is she?" she asked confused
Thanatos-"you know the Arisato kid that ended up in here with you all, thats his sister, Minako"
Adachi-"sorry, i can't but notice you have an Evoker, then again that'd explain why a persona knows you..."
?1-"or why she has me" a Deep, Gruff, Strong, Female voice said Thanatos was visibly shaking to the sound of it
a figure appeared next to Minako, a tall, dark, giving off an evil feeling from it's body, it wields two long-barrel revolvers. Its face is shrouded in bandages, with only one ominous yellow eye and two long steel chains each across its left and right shoulders, forming a cross.
?1-"Well-Well, if it isn't my favorite little brother"
Thanatos-"H-H-hello R-Reaper..."
Souji placed his hand on his Katana
Reaper-"oh hey... i remember you... your that runt, that ran around with that damn annoying Bear"
Thanatos got between the two "Souji... normally i'd support a friend... but you cant even imagine to beat her..."
Reaper placed her hand on Thanatos shoulder... you could see the Sweat running down his mask "i'm glad little bro looks up to his sis"
Ruki-"Thanatos... you ok?"
Thanatos-"the Fact i'm Death and she scares me... i feel bad at my job..."
Minako-"Enough, Reaper"
Reaper moved back to beside Minako "fine..."
Thanatos moved behind Ruki... if that makes sense
Ruki studied Reaper "i dont get it..."
Souji-"Reaper isn't a normal Shadow, its the strongest shadow"
Ruki-"Huh, really?"
Reaper looked at Ruki her eye turning red "listen runt, their DEAD serious, i'd cut out the god damn 'cutesy-innocent' act before i slaughter you!"
Thanatos made a fist "SHUT UP!"
Reaper-"did i say you could...!" Thanatos punched her sending her through the wall, to outside, Minako joined her
Ruki-"Hey! what was that!"
Thanatos-"she threatened you... and i've always wanted to smack that daft bitch upside the jaw"
Reaper was behind him "so i'm a daft bitch, eh?" she put her revolers to each side of his head and said "bang"
Thanatos rolled up into a ball... and Reaper laughed her ass off "Ahahaha I-i-i cant believe you fell for that! ahahahaha!"
Thanatos was mad... he drew his sword "DONT MOCK ME!" he rushed her, she snapped his blade into a fine powder
Reaper-"i know you're acting all big and strong for the girl over there, but between you and me, you can do better"
Thanatos-"H-hey! no one said that!, i'm protecting my owner thats all!"
Reaper-"don't you mean, your 'Gratious Master' little bro?" she teased
Thanatos knocked her down onto her back and began hitting her without end " DONT EVER, CALL ME, A SLAVE, TO ANYONE, AGAIN!" the last blow he put all his might in, an audible SNAP could be heard
Minako-"oww... Thanatos..." she collasped
Thanatos with a look of shame on his face, looked at his dazed sister and collasped owner "Did i..." he started walk away, head hung... until he found a Revolver shot go through his chest
Reaper-"TO FAR!" Thanatos collasped, and evaporated into, a rather unphased Ruki
Ruki-"why didn't i feel anything?" she too found revolver to her head
Reaper-"AND YOU WIN THE CONSOLELATION PRIZE"
Souji-"Zionga!" Izanagi blasted Reaper with Electricity, stunning her momentarily, allowing Adachi grab Ruki and run back to her room
Reaper-"so some heart-broken god is gunna try to stop me, i'd like to see you try... ARGH!" a chainsaw blade ripped clean through her back, it was Minoji... his eyes, filled with the crazies... like in his fight with Minato
Mino-"Oh boy, i knew i smelt something good! 3 birds, all in the nest, Minako, Souji, and The Reaper herself..."
Souji-"i take it you're Minoji"
Mino-"so you DO see our resemblance... at least you're not cocky like that Arisato brat!"
Minako got enraged, hearing them even in her state
Minako-"dont you... urgh,you dare call... my brother weak... you... copycat"
Souji-"Minako, you ok?"
Mino-"Not after this, BERI..."
Izanagi stood in front of Minako, while Reaper losing blood at a tremendous rate "F-f-fuck... brought down by a runt..."
Minoji kicked Reaper's side forcing her into a almost Fetal Position
Mino-"LOOK AT HER, HA!, a force stronger than death, in such a position! OH MY, this IS TRUELY golden!"
Reaper-"i'll... urgh... slaughter you...! ARGHHHHHHHHHH!" Mino had taken one of the chains wrapped around her, and pulled
Mino-"Beg!, BEG LIKE THE BITCH YOU ARE!"
Reaper was screaming... and moaning slightly... Mino let up a second to her awnser, she was gasping loudly, panting like a dog just back from a long run
Reaper-"please... don't... pull... on that... again..."
Mino had a sick smile "whats the magic nickname?"
Reaper-"go Fuck yours... ahhhhhh!" he pulled on the other one, this time all he got was heated moans
Mino-"Oh my, have i found a sensitive spot, if you ask like a good girl, i'll stop" Reaper tryed enduring it... but she was getting louder and louder each second, so she told him telepathically
Reaper ++please stop pulling on it master!++
Mino stopped "what was that? SPEAK up now"
Reaper realized he was all but after to embarass her, she looked around, Izanagi still protecting a Minako,she too moaning and panting, and Souji, looking away from the sound, out of chivialry
Reaper-"Please... no more master..."
Mino's sick smile turned to childish jump for joy "I WIN! I... win...!" he said... as he passed out, Reaper was far to embarrased or Flustered to do anything... well, besides blush
Reaper grabbed Minako and slid her into the chains on her chest, as Reaper held her guns towards the ground, and they became like jet engines, they flew off
Souji-"ermmm, what just..."
Izanagi-"i have no idea... i sure could go for a cold shower right now"
Souji-"i second that"
