Finally after so much time I can write a ShoxLabrys! It's a pity that there are not people who write about this singular couple if you can say that, this is where I came with a good story, at least I'll try to make the relationship work.
The story is an AU with characters of P3 and P4 respectively as in the game P4AU, and before they ask, Inaba will be a big city instead of a small town.
Persona does not belong to me, it is property of Atlus.
Chapter 1:The punishment
The strong rays of sunlight peeked through each of the windows of the house, the grass and trees had a particularly intense green color that day in particular, a normal day in the city of Inaba.
Inside, in a bright room, full of colors, a soft bed and feminine furniture, was what could be the most beautiful girl that anyone could have ever seen, sitting in front of the dressing table mirror, she gently brushed her long silver hair like everyday.
Her name is Labrys, a 17-year-young girl in her second year of high school, she is known as the president of the student council, always happy trying to do her best for her classmates.
She also kept the first place in her class being the smartest of all, you could say she was a perfect girl but that did not matter as long as she could help others.
Labrys, unlike other girls, was not superficial or material at all, for her, the love towards her younger sister Aigis and her friends was very important, even with some with whom she did not get along quite well, even though It only been a month since the new school year began.
After brushing her long hair she tied it in a tail of hair using a red ribbon which matched her eyes, she put on her clean uniform, white short-sleeved shirt, red tie and black jacket, uniform also consists of a black skirt with ruffles, a golden line that crosses horizontally, shoes and black stockings.
"Aigis! come here! eat something before we leave!" Labrys now in the kitchen and with breakfast ready, she called her 11-year-old sister to come down to eat something.
The parents of Aigis and Labrys were doing business abroad so it was only the two of them living in the house.
It was not a problem since Labrys was very responsible and self-sufficient to handle things at home.
"Sister, do you think today will be a good day?" little Aigis asked, taking a seat at the table next to her sister, took a bite of her toast while looking at her.
"Why the question?"
"You work a lot as the president and you always get home when it's dark, do not you get tired of all that responsibility?"
"Of course it is exhausting to do all that but I already committed myself to the student council, besides not everyone can do it"
"I get it..."
"Ah, I know what happens, you're sad because we did not spend as much time together as before, am I right?"
"Not really, you have your responsibilities but it would not be easier if someone will help you so we would have more time to play?"
"An assistant? now that I think about it, it's not a bad idea, maybe I'll ask Yu or Yosuke for help, oh what time it is! finish eating now because it's getting late for school!"
After eating breakfast, the sisters left the house to go to their respective schools, Labrys left the door of the enclosure to her sister, gave her a hug and said goodbye to her.
Labrys followed her own path being greeted by the majority of students who passed by, always making sure she would do so today.
When a few blocks away from Yasogami high school, the voice of her friends Chie and Yukiko knocked her out of her thoughts.
"Good morning!" Labrys greeted her friends with her characteristic radiant smile.
"How is the student council president this morning?" Chie said
"Well only took a month and the truth is an arduous work, I can hardly with my own schedule"
"You work a lot, Labrys, one day you could go to my family's inn so we can relax a bit, do you like the idea?" Yukiko kindly suggested by making Labrys give a long sigh.
"I guess it's okay, I need a break from all this and be able to spend more time with you and Aigis, now let's go to school" Labrys said and they started walking, at the entrance they met the rest of their friends, Yu, Yosuke , Kanji, Naoto, Teddie and Rise who greeted them.
The group of friends entered the classroom with the exception of Naoto, Kanji, Teddie and Rise, who were in the first year, the teacher was not arriving so they had a few minutes to relax.
"And well, Labrys, who feels like being president?" Yu asked curious to know that she felt the position of president.
"How to say it? ok, I'll try to tell it as detailed as possible, you know it's a big responsibility but it consumes a lot of my time, sometimes it's quite difficult" Labrys closed her eyes inertia while her friends looked at her.
"Quiet Labrys ... if possible and I can help you in something, go ahead! here you have me, just keep me well informed, okay? and if afterwards you feel like you want to talk ... just call me" Yosuke said with a smile causing Labrys to blush a little at that comment.
"It will not be that you say so for Labrys to agree to be with you, Yosuke?" Yukiko said keeping her gaze questioning, the rest did the same.
"They do not think they're misinterpreting things, I just want to help Labrys the same way I would with any of you" Yosuke said crossing his arms while his friends laughed.
"Any of you can help me when you want, anyway I would have less hard work" Labrys said.
After a few minutes, Miss Margaret, a mature woman with white hair and a slender figure arrived at the classroom, all the students returned to their posts paying attention to what she would say.
"Good morning everyone, we will start with history class but first we will pass the attendance list to know that they are all present" Margaret took out a book along with a pencil to mark the attendance.
Like every day but with the exception that something new would happen later, Margaret marked the attendance of all until she reached the last names that began with the letter M.
"Huh? have any of you seen Minazuki?" Margaret asks with emphasis on the black sheep in the classroom.
"Minazuki has not yet arrived...again, Miss" Yu told Margaret who massaged her head because of the annoyance she felt.
"It's always the same with that kid, he never changes and I do not know what he's thinking"
"Please, I apologize for his behavior, this is not how everyone sees him and I am sure he have a good reason to be late"
"Narukami, I understand you're a good friend of Minazuki, has it always been like that?"
"I have only known him since last month but I know he is a good person, Sho is misunderstood but very noble"Yu said in a way, his companions did not take it so well and laughed.
Sho Minazuki was a mystery in every sense of the word, no one knew where he came from or where he currently lives, not even a certain girl with silver hair.
Labrys felt a chill run down her back, that boy was one of the reasons why her work was quite difficult at times, almost never talked to him because they were very different, each with her point of view.
"Labrys? do you have any idea where is Minazuki?" Margaret asked again causing Labrys to be surprised by the question.
"I do not know him well enough to know where he is .. I'm sorry, Miss Margaret"Labrys apologizes, lowering her head.
Labrys definitely did not want to talk to Sho, much less she longed to know him or even be his friend.
Unexpectedly everyone heard heavy footsteps coming from outside, hard footsteps echoing in the corridors.
"Everyone listen to the same thing that I do?"Yu said
"What's going on outside?" Margaret said and everyone turned their attention to the door, the footsteps were heard closer until they stopped causing intrigue in the students.
There was a few minutes of silence, nobody said a single word, the chaos came when the door was suddenly abruptly kicked causing several students horror.
"I've arrived bitches!"
His loud voice echoed all over the place, there stood Yasogami's strangest and creepy student, tall and with crimson hair, an X-shaped scar on his face.
Sho is a young man with blue eyes, he wears a Yasogami high school uniform and an olive green button-down shirt with a black collar and cuffs and a yellow band on a sleeve emblazoned with a black star in a circle, he wears the uniform jacket around his waist, his shoes are yellow and black.
"Sho Minazuki is the fifth time in a row that you're late for my class ... huh? Sho why is your shirt bloody!?" Margaret asked confused.
Sho had blood on his shirt and walked a little and then fell to the floor as if it were a sack of potatoes.
"Sho! Sho, are you okay friend!?" Yu quickly went to his aid after seeing the condition of his friend, the only sound was that of his stomach growling.
"Hungry ... need food" Sho said weakly.
"Phew! It's really Sho" Yu said sighing, Sho was hungry and Yu realized that the blood was not of his friend.
"Yu..my backpack ... take out what's in my backpack ... please" Sho said and Yu ignored him, took out what appeared to be rice balls with a bittersweet pig, Sho started eating to recover all off his strength.
"I live again! I feel so much better now, you really saved my life, thanks a lot" Sho stood up before the unheard-of gaze of everyone in the classroom.
"Let me guess ... you had another fight, right?" Margaret asked with her arms crossed and staring at the young man with crimson hair.
"I..."
"So you did have another fight?"
"I was ... ummm..agh, it's okay, I had another fight"
"Sho, it's the fifth time in a row that you're late because you were in a fight, I've helped you several times despite your rebellious behavior"
"But Miss Margaret! I can explain what happened!"
"Not this time, you already had your chance, I'm sorry but it's too late and I want you to go to the director's office to assign an appropriate punishment, it's for your own good"
"But I!"
"Or do you have something else to contribute?"
"No, nothing"
"Sho please go right now"
"All right! I'll go now to the principal's office" Sho said annoyed as he left the classroom in the direction of the director's office at a slow pace.
The girl followed him with the look as the boy walked away, apparently discouraged, but there was something that Labrys caught her attention since he saw it, but this time, there was something different in Sho.
"His eyes overflowed, tired or maybe ..?" Labrys knew that was not that, or at least not completely, that was sadness?.
The girl noticed how the young man sighed frequently, that smile that complemented him had disappeared from his face, that was as if he were someone completely different, this time he looked introverted and quite sad.
"What happened to Sho? did he have had a bad day?" Labrys longed to know, was eager to talk to him, those eyes were so beautiful that they could ban sadness and seriousness, it was disturbing, but how to get to him without her friends noticing of it?.
"Well class, now let's continue, there will be your textbooks on page 11" Margaret spoke again to take the class, all students opened their books to start a new routine section.
His footsteps were heavy, after going to the bathroom to clean his favorite shirt full of blood and wash his face, Sho looks at himself in the mirror looking at his own reflection.
"I think this time I did everything wrong, I just hope he does not end up expelled or arrested by the police" Sho said with a long sigh.
Slowly he placed his hand on the thin transparent glass, the cloudy sky dragged with it a solemn wind that shuddered from the grass to the towering trees, while some drops began to fall from the sky, refreshing the green nature that extended throughout the forest, even when it rained the outside world retained a magical and splendid beauty.
Sho left the bathroom to direct his walk to the place assigned to him, knocked on the door to announce his presence.
"Enter" he hear a voice coming from the office.
Sho came in to see the man sitting at his desk with interlaced fingers, short stature and white hair, a long nose and penetrating gaze.
"Good morning mister Igor, I am here to receive my punishment" despite being a rebel, Sho still maintains courtesy and respect for the man who stared at him.
"From what they told me, you had a lawsuit and you were late for school, right?"
"I apologize for that, it was they who provoked me and also insulted me"
"I see, the voice of a kid, even if it's honest, has no relevance for those who forgot to listen, you may not have started the fight but you finished it"
"I know perfectly what you mean and I accept any punishment you want"
"Oh I understand, will you do anything to pay your debt?" Igor looked at him and Sho felt that he was making a contract with the devil, shook his head at the idea and looked at Igor.
"I'll do anything" Sho said determined to meet whatever and Igor smiled at the young man's response.
"Alright, I'm glad to know that you can be very disciplined that's why I already know what you can do"
"And what do I have to do?" Sho asked again, he felt as if something was wrong while the silence became present.
Sho was nervous to know what he would do, he just wanted one thing in the world, not having to be near a certain girl with silver hair and red eyes.
"You will be the assistant to the president of the school committee" Igor finally said closing his eyes.
"WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO WHAT!?" Sho yelled as loudly as he could, the mere thought of being close to Labrys was enough to send him to a thirst for incurable rage.
"What you heard, from now on you will help Labrys in all her labors"
"Why do I have to be the dog of that soulless doll!?" Sho asks, clenching his fists.
"What happens? Labrys is very kind to everyone, perhaps there is something between you?" Igor asks intrigued by the negative reaction that Sho had, the redhead gave a strong blow to the desk.
"It's too perfect, I do not believe in everything I see and I know something is wrong with that girl, I really hate people as good as she!"
"Interesting answer, tell me more"
"I think she is a damn Robot, that is, it always does the same thing every day, it never comes out of its daily routine and I think it's very gullible, excuse me but I refuse"
"I have excused you quite enough! you will work only for her, It's that clear?"
"I was just..."
"I ain't interesed, it does not matter anyway, that's my last word, you start tomorrow in the first hour, now get up and work!" Igor said while preparing some documents.
Sho left without saying a word while struggling not to lose control of himself, he was definitely forced to work with Labrys and that idea sent him to a tremendous wrath, what Sho felt for Labrys was not envy.
It was very difficult to describe what kind of emotion he felt, things like hate or rancor were not in his dictionary but he did not accept the idea of being with that girl either.
"I'm an idiot for getting involved in that stupid fight, now I'm in an irreversible situation!"Sho punched a nearby locker leaving a big mark on it, stood in that place until a creepy smile adorned his face.
"Well Miss Goody-Goody, you will have the best assistant in the world and you will be pleased with me" Sho laughed, now he had the opportunity to humiliate the perfect Labrys.
Hurried step by step as he returned to the classroom, never stopped smiling, he longed to see her in his face to say that his worst nightmare had come true, Sho smiled at that tempting idea of making his life impossible.
A / N here takes off the first chapter, I accept all kinds of opinions to know how the story goes, know why Sho is the best? his voice is made by the great Todd Haberkorn, my favorite voice actor, Todd is the best candidate for Sho, leaving my fanaticism aside, I hope you like this year's first ShoxLabrys story.
