Chapter 1
"Woo Hoo, last day of school and tomorrow's the start of our summer vacation before our senior year in highschool. I say we start having fun immediately. What do you say guys, hang out at HQ?" Yosuke asks.
"Y-Yeah why not. Hehe." Chie tried to sound enthusiastic but it doesn't reach her eyes.
Yukiko just glanced briefly and looked away and let out a barely audible sigh as a memory of someone caused her to once again feel his absence, missing him.
"O-oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to remind you guys about him. Its just that…" Yosuke trailed off.
"It's alright Yousuke. I know he wouldn't want us to be this way and we promised him we would be alright and move forward in our lives." Yukiko smiled apologetically.
"And we did move forward though I won't blame you guys for missing him. Partner's one of a kind guy and leader. Man, How long has it been since we last spoke with him."
"Three months ago when he and his family were still abroad. He said they were already coming back once the school year is out but he hasn't called or written to me since then…" Yukiko lowered her gaze. Chie came over to her and put her arm around her.
"Anyway, enough gloomy talk, I agree on officially starting our summer vacation and we should start it with steak and you're buying. Call the others to meet us there." Chie quickly dragged Yukiko off before he can protest.
"W-Whaaa? Heeeey, no fair." And he quickly dashed off towards Junes.
Meanwhile, In Tokyo.
A grey almost silvery white haired young man was staring out the window of his room and watching the rain drops that are pattering against the glass. He sighed for the umpteenth time that day.
'Its been three months since we visited my uncles abroad and it still feel so surreal. I shouldn't be surprised with the paranormal considering the event a year ago but this is just…' His thoughts trailed off as he sighed once more.
Flashback (3 months ago)
"Souji, before we return to japan, there is something you should now." His father spoke one morning.
"A-alright, father, I'm listening." He stuttered as he was taken aback by the seriousness of his father's tone. He turned his head to glance at his mother briefly.
She was smiling but not her usual cheerful almost childish and smothering way but with the underlying seriousness and was that pride he see in her eyes?
She gave him an understanding and pleading look at the same time, as if imploring him to believe in what his father would say, like there is the possibility that he might doubt him.
'Well, how bad could it be. Compared to having a persona and saving the world I don't think whatever it is that they'll tell me could be mutch worse or weirder..' He thought as he focused his attention back to his father.
"We know, Souji, that you have become aware of the, let's just say, paranormal world. We have felt the strength and power within you, the power of a persona." His father stated bluntly.
"H-how did you? W-what do you mean? I don't…" Even in a million years nothing could have prepared him for this. His father interrupted him before he can make a denial.
"We' re not angry and don't try to deny it. As I've said we could feel or sense the power. Even you are aware that you still have this power though you have not called upon it for quite sometime."
He could only nod his head dumbly at his father.
"Souji dear, its nothing to be shocked or afraid of. Also since you have awakened this power which, though you may not be aware is a right of passage in our clan, it is time for you to know the whole truth about our family and the family business." His mother stated calmly, giving him a serene smile.
"And for that its time for you to meet your uncles from my side, their my half brothers and one of them is the head of this special clan." His father interjected. "Today we will go to Devil May Cry to meet your uncles Nero and Dante Sparda." His father smiled at him, a smile full of pride.
