Hello persona here, sorry for how long this chapter took to get out. See I have this fear that the moment I release my chapter is the moment I see this huge ass error in spelling… I wonder if the higher reviewed writer must feel when they released a chapter… Also if your wondering why Minato is acting weird as compared to persona q or how Minato is portrayed in persona 3 is simple I am trying to build him in a certain light as compared to Yu… that's all I am going to say for now enjoy I do not own anything.

Chapter 2: The attack.

*Beep, beep beep*

Yu did not give the clock the chance to sound off a fourth time, the sun had yet to rise. Looking at the small window he could see the lights of the city. 'might as well get up and get ready it will take around thirty minutes to get to Gekkoukan high school.' Dressing into his new high school uniform Yu felt incredibly uncomfortable, the uniform unlike his Yasogami High school uniform is slim fight, Yu did open his jacket providing Yu to feel more fresh air to bleed through the white under shirt. Heading down he saw that the blue haired teen was the same he met on the way to dorm sitting on the couch, he had the same uniform on with the exception is that the blue haired teen's jacket was closed instead of open, Yu waved "hello, nice to see you again".

The blue haired teen waved back lazily "Good morning" his voice was fairly stoic and uncaring, it did not seem like he was a morning person. "my name is Minato Aristato"

"Mine is Yu Narukami…" Yu responded back

"…." Minato nodded but said nothing else. It was as if the only thing that matter to was to take a sip of his tea and remember how to live again.

'maybe I should leave him be.' Yu looked at his clock and decided to start heading towards his new school.

Unlike Yasogami where there was a lack of teachers, clubs and funds for any major event Gekkoukan High had the money to hire a multiple of teacher, hold over the top events in Japan. The prize of the school was actually the wide arrange of successful clubs to choice from, most placed second or third nationally. However to Yu, the school was just another place to be and stay for the year. Approaching the school gate Yu looked at the massive building. 'another year, another school. The only difference is that I have a dorm room now.'.

Yu felt his phone ring, looking at the new text message on his phone. It was from Yosuke "hey partner. I Heard from Yukiko that you arrived you are at a new place for the year, here to wish you luck man. You probably don't need it, also I've heard that Naoto is working on a case over there she didn't tell us what it was about though Kanji been bugged out about to. Thought you would want to know. Seeya partner."

Yu smiled before punching back a replay " thanks Yosuke for the luck, tell everyone I said hello, who knows maybe I can see you guys on vacation or something, also Ill keep an eye for Naoto for kanji".

Yu looked at the massive school before him now, 'such a massive school, it looks more, like a college campus than a high school.'

Yu looked at the schedule he signed up for. 'Looks like I have a Homeroom with Mr .Daniel on Math. room building three room 3-027, For science Mrs. Dianna, ,for English Mrs. Magrine, Physical . and lastly history with Mr. Justice? what a name to history teacher for justice, I can only imagine what would happen if he was in law the jokes that must g through him.

Yu walked into his homeroom only to find excessive gossip. One brown haired girl whispered " did you hear we got a transferred student". "I heard the new student is a cute" said another female student. A black haired boy muttered "he is probably a douche."

Yu Narukami sighed before sitting down. ' even in a different school the same gossip persist. Immediately judging without even knowing my name.' the chatter all died when a man with glasses came and sat down on at the teachers desk. The man greeted the class. "hello my name is Mr. Da…." The teacher stopped talking randomly and looked down.

Yu thought 'huh why did he stop?' upon close inspection Yu found out that he was in fact asleep. 'wow not even two minutes in. I can already tell this year is going to be something'

The teacher woke up , blinked a few times, then proceeded like nothing happened" welcome Gekkoukan High. I will be your Teacher for the year, as some of you may know, we have a new student." Motioning for Yu to stand "This Yu Narukami he comes fro….." the teacher fell asleep again.

The whole entire class sweat dropped. " is, is he serious?" "why do I have to be stuck here again?"

started muttering "take your seats and turn to page three , we, we going over ….zzzzz….."

*ding, ding*

Yu Narukami stood up and started walking out of his last class with Mr. Justice who was absent due to a medical emergency that day. ' all normal teachers with the exception of Daniel' walking down the hall he spotted a club sign. Join the kendo club, recruitment start next week. Meets are on Monday and Wednesday. Yu could not stop the smirk that played on his lips. Yu was always interested with kendo in fact one of his many hobbies was training with a wooden shaped katana, however most schools that Yu attend a school never had a dedicated kendo school or the club was a joke. Surly Gekkoukan High would prove interesting. 'Unfortnatly it does not start till next week, I guess I can hold off till then' Yu then proceeded to leave the school building not noticing the two golden eyes stalking him.

As Yu was returning back to the dorm from using the Iwatodai train station, Yu mind went back to what was said about in the velvet room. ' A contract that must be found. Last time I made a contact with Teddie, it was simple yet binding. ' needed to help Teddies' world and to stop the killer.' Stepping out of the train Yu started to walk back to the dorm. Night was nearly approaching. 'but the way Margret worded the contract is like I have a choice to make, unlike last time where I was forced into such one. There still to many variables to consider to make an accurate guess.'

Opening the door Yu was greeted to a girl in pink talking to Mitsuro. "What do you mean he has potential? I mean stupie can mess things up."

Mitsuro shook her head "we must consider all possible candidates and he fits the bill for now, there is still some things that must…." Mitsuro looked and saw Yu approached them. "ohh its you, I did not see you there. How was your first day Narukami-san?"

Yu smiled 'what were they talking about a candidate? Stupie?' "nothing to exciting though I do have one teacher who cannot seem to stay awake. How was Yours sempai?"

Mitsuro chuckeled "ahh you have Daniels? Don't worry about him, he will wake up eventually. My day was rather uneventful as well. By the way in case you were wondering this Yukari Takeba. Yukari this is Yu Narukami."

The Yukari gave a small wave "pleasure to meet you" Yu responded in kind. "Nice to meet you too."

After waiting for a bit Yu realized that they finished talking. Yu decided to headed for his room to finish unpack. Surprisingly it took awhile because the clock hit eleven thirty when he was done. ' phew that takes care of everything. 'Lets see clothes, books from Inaba, laptop, and finally my Katana that I used for to solve the murder case all unpacked'. Deciding to hit the bed to gain a proper rest Yu fell asleep. 'I wonder what I am going to dream of now? Maybe wrestling with a robot wielding axe riding a huge bull … that would be rather entertaining actually'

*Bang,*

An unearthly scream filled the dorm Rousing Yu from bed. 'what the hell was that? was that a scream?' walking out to investigate the offending noise. Yu traveled upstairs only to encounter a trio of shadows, it had a blue mask an slime like body and long tendril of an arm, blocking his path. Yu was too startled to move as the shadow made a gurgling noise and rammed him back down the stairs to next to his room. Dazed Yu stood up. was that a shadow? Maybe it was… No that was defiantly a shadow but the question is how is it in the real world? Now is not the time…First things first I need a weapon'

The three shadows that attacked Yu went downstairs to pursuit only to find found that Yu was no longer on the ground but running towards a door. The shadows trying to intercept but they were too slow as the door slammed a Maya in the face knocking him down. Confused the shadows waited for their prey to return from the door. When the door open the first shadow was skewered by a Insanely large Naginata with a massive blade at its end.

Izanagi Cleave!

The now ethereal being called Izanagi wielded a naginata and was covered in black coat sporting military insignia on his shoulders, a steel helmet, and white under mesh suit, his yellow eyes sent a chilling death glare to the unfortunate Mayas. Removing his blade from the first Izanagi went at blistering speeds to the second Maya and slashed it in half with practiced ease. Narukami then rushed and demolished the knocked down shadow using his Katana. Narukami looked around trying to find more shadows in the dark hall way, only to see nothing but a simple green tint come from the stairs. 'was that all of them? What are the Shadows doing here?' just then Yu heard running coming from the stairs. Waiting to surprise the potential threat Yu called out his Persona card. The card dangled in front of his palm waiting to be crushed and summoned. Only for Yu to be surprised to see when Mitsuro, Minato, and Yukari came down.

Mitsuro responded first "Are you alright? What, what are you holding?" Minato also followed up "why do you have a sword out?"

Yu mind raced trying to find out a proper response. ' I can't just say that I destroyed three shadows with a persona can I?' "I heard a scream and decided to investigate. You said that there has been intruders in the past, so I just reacted."

The trio looked at each other before Mitsuro spoke. "so you did not see a shadow? No there was an anomaly here just a few seconds ago. It would be impossible to miss" Yu was taken back. ' she knows?' Yu asked "wait you know what a shadow is?"

Mitsuro blinked. " I…. Wait?" Mitsuro pointed at Narukami. " you are a persona user. I should have known, your power was to readable on the frequency…..I should've known."

Yu did not know what to think. ' the only other people with persona besides me is the investigation team and Adachi.' "you seem to have an Idea of what on going on Mitsuro senpai. Care to fill in the details."

Mitsuro gave a sigh of relief " it seems that there is some things I need to discuss huh, I can provided the answers you might have. And I will answer them but wait for tomorrow after school, everyone here seems to tired and we have a new persona user who just awoken," pointing to Minato who looked drained of all energy. Taking a good look at Minato Yu instantly recognized the signs of a new persona user, fatigue. "alright I'll hold you to it Senpai."

Leaving back to his room Narukami looked and saw that the time was only 12:02 'defiantly weird. Maybe the shadows have something to deal with the phenomenon.' Trying for sleep Narukami couldn't seem to get any. 'a new awoken persona user. I have a feeling that I am rapidly approaching the contract that Igor has sent me to accomplish.' And with that final thought sleep finally.
