A Different Hidden Hour


Chapter One: The Green World

Jessica had been traveling the world helping those who had been affected by the spread of the Blue Hour. It had taken her a considerable amount of time but she had finally made it to Japan by only traveling during the one hour she was "awake". Even then she had made it to her destination in good time.

One night in Japan, during the Blue Hour, she was approaching a port city she believed was called Tatsumi Port Island. Jessica had been hearing strange rumors about an epidemic of a disease called "Apathy Syndrome" in which people turn into practical vegetables, not able to function as a normal human being.

Jessica was just steps away from the border of the city when she noticed something strange. There was a green barrier looking wall at the edge of the city. When she approached the greenish, translucent wall she wondered if she would be able to pass through it. The Flame Bringer touched the barrier with her hand and it seemed as if she was passing right through a wall, a wall that put no resistance in keeping her out.

As she walked through the barrier she noticed that her surroundings had changed considerably. Instead of the normal blue hue of the "hidden hour" she had grown use to, she was now in a green world that was covered in blood. Not only were the green surroundings creepy but the blood also seemed to cover everything.

As she kept walking she couldn't help but noticed how eerily quiet it was even for the "hidden hour". Deciding to ignore her feelings that said something was strange about this place, she kept walking to try to find another person, even if that person ended up being frozen where they stood.

Jessica was close to the middle of town, she could tell by the increase of buildings, but there was one thing that was unsettling to her. As she got closer to bigger buildings large, black coffins were present and had an aura of red surrounding them, the same crimson color as the blood covering the city. There was also the absence of darklings that threw off her senses.

Her instincts were telling her to run away as far as she could from this new, strange, green world, but for some reason she was being drawn more into the city. That was when she became apparent to the large, distorted tower that could be seen in the distance. From the looks of it the tower seemed to reach the moon. This strange tower looked as if a child had put a bunch of blocks together haphazardly to create something that vaguely resembled a building. Jessica could also sense a great power being emitted by the dreadful excuse of a skyscraper. Even so the feeling just sparked her curiosity even more so, and it made her want to stand in front of the building and look in awe of how magnificently terrifying the structure was.

She looked at her watch, which was only able to function due to her power, to see that she had about forty minutes left until the "hidden hour" was over. She had just enough time to get closer to the awful tower.

Walking to the tower took a long time but in the end it was worth it. While walking to her destination she finally had the chance to admire the moon, after gazing in awe at the tower below it. The moon was a very defined crescent and was ten times larger than the moon should be, not to mention the green hue was also present on the moons surface.

Once Jessica had finally made it to the gates of the spire she noticed that the gates were already open, a sign that there was someone or something inside the appalling building. Walking through the gates and up the steps to the outrageously large doors she swore she heard voices inside the vestibule of the tower. Jessica spent a minute or so pondering whether or not to enter, fearing for her safety for the nth time.

Finally, after gathering the courage to open the massive doors, the Flame Bringer was greeted with the sight of a group of, what looked like, high school students. The one that was closest to her looked like the leader, a boy with blue hair that covered most of his face. His hands were stuffed into his pockets and his back was slightly hunched over to make him look like a nonchalant person. One thing that really surprised her was that he had a holster around his waist were a gun occupied and a one handed sword in a scabbard also strapped to his waist.

He slowly turned to look at her while she froze in fear. Her instincts told her that this boy was powerful and she could tell that he was not one to mess with, even though his bored expression suggested otherwise. She could feel sweat dripping from her brow as she heard the blue haired boy speak for the first time, "Omae wa darena no?"


A/N: I had originally had a different story that was much more cliché that had to do with transfer students. So at around one in the morning I had this idea that I could not help but get up out of bed and start to type up. I think that it is fairly good but I think Jessica is a little OOC and that is because it has been quite a while since I read the Midnighters books. But the Persona 3 characters I feel pretty confident about (even though they only appear very much toward the end) but yeah I love Persona 3 and Midnighers so I just love being able to mash them together.

BTW Minato (blue haired boy if you didn't get that before) is saying, "Who are you?"

Also this is my first Fanfic so be easy on me. Also tell me what you think R/R. I might continue this but I am notorious for bad writers block to please forgive me if I do not finish this.
