Persona 3: Boku Ga Shinigami de Shinigami Ga Boku De

Note: Sorry for the long delay, I was kinda tied up to some other things, anyway, here's chapter 2 enjoy!

Chapter 2: Mayhem On A Train Ride

Dorm...

Sigh... Both Arisatos come in with the opposite expression. "Oh, you guys are back." Junpei is sitting on the sofa that is on the right side of the room playing a portable handle.

"Yeah." "Yo."

"Have you snuffed out of your gloomy state?" Minato asked as he sits on the seat near him.

"Yeah, whew, I finally, was able to lay off that stuff. I won't be taking another one of those pills."

"Hey guys!" Yukari comes from the dinning room.

"Hey." The three greet back with different tones.

"So you guys hang out with Tomochika at his place huh?" Junpei asked.

"Oh, that other dorm that is near Shirakawa Boulevard?" Yukari asked.

"Ah that, I heard you guys were planning to help him out with some... "big plan"."

"How did you know about that?" Blue Arisato asked.

"He text me out a while ago, he has a lot of guts when it comes to ladies."

"Oh... He's that kind of guy." Yukari said.

"Ha ha. We get that expression." Hamuko said.

"Well anyway, I'm hungry, what's for dinner?" Junpei asked. The four of them go to the dinning room. The two seniors, Mitsuru and Akihiko, joined them afterwards. They stayed up until Mitsuru told them to go to bed like a parent figure would say though Junpei comments that she's too strict to which Minato recommends that he shouldn't raise his tone outloud if he wishes not to feel her wrath. Akihiko can contribute to that.

The next day... At the school gates...

The Arisatos arrive first before Yukari and Junpei do. A lot of students are going to the main building which is the lobby building. "Yawn... Ah."

"Minato-kun?"

"Daijobou, I'm just not a morning person." That's true, when he was at other places, he always work night shifts during his part-time jobs since he doesn't have anything else to do since he's not into the interest of his surrounding people.

"Yo!" A voice called out. Turning to it they see...

"Ah, Tomochika!" Hamuko waves at him.

"Hey, ohayou. Say, have you guys seen the gymnastic club members? Boy, they're sure putting a lot of effort into it."

He refers to the students who are jogging around the campus. The boys are doing it while some of the girls are at the field practicing with their tennis skills. "Sou dau ne?"

"They are dedicated to it." Minato said. "It could be because of the championship this year."

:"Eh? Championship?"

"Ah, I think it was a competition with some school at a rural area."

"Hmm... Is that so?"

"Ah, it's because of that that Rio wouldn't come to my place and help with my homework." Kenji said.

"Rio?"

"Heads uuup!" A voice yelled. Up ahead is...

"Huh?" Kenji turns to it then... ...whoosh... whhHooosh! Bonk! "Ugh!" A ball went flying toward his face!

"Tomochika!" Hamuko exclaimed while Minato only gives him an eyebrow.

"Ow."

"Geez you should have moved out of the way Kenji." A young woman with a long black pony tail hair said. She seems to be a member of the tennis club.

Kenji stands up. "What was that about! Ow, geez, I think you hit my nose."

"I exclaimed to move out of the way right? If you had reacted faster you wouldn't have been hit by that."

"Like hell anyone would be able to move out of the way in just three seconds!"

"Sigh... Anyway," She turns to the two transfer students. "Hello there, are you two friends of Kenji? He's sort of trouble so you'll have to forgive him."

"Ah."

"Not really. Ha ha." Different replies.

"By the way, Rio your team is looking for recruits right?" Kenji asked.

"Ah, we're lacking one member to participate on the competition this year, we're hoping we'll get one. That is if anyone is willing to join."

"One member huh? Hm..." He turns to Hamuko but then if he just force her to join, that will be rude, so he decided not to. "Well good luck I guess, class is about to start so we'll going now."

"Ah, see you later. And see you guys too." She refers to the Arisatos.

"Ah, see you around umm..." Hamuko said with the expression of asking for one's name.

"Rio. Iwasaki Rio, nice to meet you Arisato Hamuko."

"Huh? You..."

"You and Arisato-kun are pretty popular around here so no need to introduce yourself."

"Oh, okay. Ja ne!" The three made their way to their homeroom, Class 2-F.

Later... After class...

"Arrgh. Ah." Minato stretches out then stands up.

"Hey Arisato." His classmate earlier approaches him. "Have you ever joined any club? I heard the gymnastic club were looking for recruits?"

"...And?"

"So, why don't you join in the party? Miyamoto could use a rival in his own game."

"Miyamoto?" He remembers someone, who is a classmate of theirs, with that last name.

"Ah, you know, the one who is eager to change into his P.E uniform after class." The student who is near the window comes to Minato's mind. Like Kenji said, he's eager to change into his jogging suit whenever class would come to an end. "I heard he's the captain of one those clubs. He also bugs me about joining in but, man, I'm not your average sports guy, I'm just a guy trying to enjoy his life to the fullest."

"Yeah... You sure are."

"Hehe, well anyway, think about it will you? You might have fun while you're at it. Well, I have homework to do so I'll be going now." He leaves the classroom.

"Gymnastic club huh?" Blue Arisato remembers that Yukari is the captain of the archery club and that Akihiko is as well in the boxing club. "Maybe I should join Kendo..." Since Yukari is that of the archery and Akihiko is that of using one's fists, he decided that he'll be the swordsmanship type.

Later... At the gym...

Without wasting any time, Minato goes to the gym where the Kendo club members are doing some practice on their wooden swords. He approached the coach and told him that he'll be joining. Toriumi-sensei had a discussion with the coach about this and she has given him permission to do so. All of the members are gathered with Minato and the coach in front. "This is Arisato Minato, the transfer student. You have heard of him yes? He'll be joining the club. Miyamoto!"

"Sir!" The classmate that Kenji mentioned earlier steps forward. He remembers him as the male student who was scolded by...

"Everyone is eager to have another one join sir!" The female student that time. "I'm also exchanging equipment with the tennis club outside."

"Whatever, anyway, Arisato will be joining the club, take care of him will you?" The coach said.

"Yes sir! You're the guy who sit next to Takeba right?" Kazushi Miyamoto asked.

"Ah." Minato said.

"Then you have seen me around right?"

"Ah."

"Then long story short, you're under my league now. Just because you're new here doesn't mean I'll go easy on you!"

"...Right." He expected this actually. The other members welcome him.

"Since this is your first here, you can just watch our practice and call it a day. I'll prepare your hakama later." The team manager, Yuko Nishiwaki, said. "Oh I'm the team manager by the way. I'm Nishiwaki Yuko. You can call me Nishiwaki."

"Ah, okay." He goes to the side. The others continue their practice with the sound of their wooden swords echoing in the large hall.

"That reminds me, I need to get something from the field outside, hope Iwasaki would allow me to borrow it." Yuko goes out to the tennis field outside.

"...? Iwasaki?" Minato remembers Rio, who said to be a childhood friend of Kenji, from earlier. He looks outside through the window and he saw her and to his surprise, Hamuko as well. It seems she has joined the tennis club. "Huh... So she joined in." He thought. He just remained at his position until practice was over. He returns to the dorm afterwards.

Later that night...

Keplunk. "Ah Arisato-kun." Minato comes in to be greeted by Yukari who is sitting on the sofa. "Good timing, Kirijo-senpai is at the command room, doing some training."

"Training?"

"Yeah, she told me if you want to explore Tartarus you should speak to her though you don't have to do it tonight, I'm kinda tired from all that practice earlier."

"...Is that so? Ja, I won't ask her then."

"Ah, anyway, Hamuko-chan and Iori are over there." She points at the dinning room where the lively conversation and dinner is being held. He goes there to join in.

The next day...

At Gekkoukan Auditiorium...

All of the students are gathered in the auditorium for the announcement of the result of the voting for the position as president in the student council and as it turns out... "That concludes the main portion of today's assembly. Next, we'll hear a few words from our new kaichou. Please welcome the new seitokai kaichou Kirijo Mitsuru!" The female student who is a voice of a student body announce in front of the stage.

"Arigatou." Mitsuru walks upfront.

"Wow... So she got elected." Junpei, who is sitting at the third row in the right, said. Minato is sitting on his left and Kenji is on his right. Yukari and Hamuko are behind them.

"I guess she's the most popular girl in school. Sigh." Yukari said.

"Huh? What's the matter with you?"

"...Nothing, I just remembered that our school is own by the Kirijo group."

"Oh that. There's nothing wrong with that right? I mean, they frantically own the entire man-made island." Kenji said.

"Yeah, I try not to think about that."

"Ora, ora, senpai is about to begin her speach." Hamuko said trying to cheer them up as usual. The one she finds this difficult to do so is her opposite personality Minato.

"As I begin my terms as seitokai kaichou, I like to share with all of you my vision for this upcoming year. It is my utmost belief that each of us has a responsibility to fulfill. That includes your academics, school participation and enthuasm. It should also be noted that each of you are to follow the school rules without any sign of deviousness. I also recommend all of you to do your best this year as this will be perhaps one of the most important ones, all of us are required to partake in our various responsibilities as students of this school and..." Mitsuru continues on her speech.

"..." Minato simply watches her without paying much attention to her words. "Roles... huh?" If he has a role, then what is it? ...One thing came to his mind... "Boku wa... ...Shinigami..." Yup, that will be his role in his stay here where he will change a lot of people for the better and 'kill' the negativity that is plaguing a lot of people.

"...Arigatou." Mitsuru finishes her speech and left the stage. A lot of applauses are heard.

"Damn, that was frickin amaizing. So, Arisato, did you have any idea what she just said?" Junpei asked.

"...No." He wasn't paying attention much though he did understood a few of the words that were said about the students and the upcoming school events and how students should 'play their roles' in the campus.

"Me neither. I don't know what I'll say if she ask for my opinion later..."

"Oh right, you guys are on the same dorm huh? Is there co-ed rule there?" Kenji asked.

"Of course there is. You think boys can peek on the girls dorm there? You're just like Iori, Tomochika." Yukari said.

"Ha ha." Again, Hamuko simply laugh it off.

"What? I didn't mean that!"

"Yeah Yuka-tan, don't just jump into conclusions! Not all of us are your bunch of stalkers." The two friends with the same background said.

"Whatever."

"Hm." Minato didn't say anything though he does enjoy their company.

"Hm, hmmhm." And Hamuko takes notice of that. She smiles at her opposite personality.

Later, after class... At Class 2-F

Most of the students have already left the classroom, leaving only Minato, Junpei and some students. "FYI Sanada-senpai called me earlier, he said he wanted me to bring him something. Yup, he knows who to count on."

Slide. "He only ask you since you have nothing to do after school." Yukari said as she entered with Hamuko.

"H-Hey, don't put it that way...!"

"*giggle* I'm just kidding."

"Heehee." Hamuko does what Yukari does.

"Oh come on."

"Well, I don't have practice today so I'll go with you."

"Ooh, me too!" The crimson Arisato volunteers.

"You're coming too right, Arisato-kun?"

"Ah." Minato said.

"Cool."

"Uh w-wait a minute." Junpei said.

"What? You got a problem with that?"

"It's cool that we all go!" Hamuko cheered.

"Well it was ME he asked." Junpei said. The four of them head for the hospital near Iwatodai station.

Later, at Akihiko's room...

The four of them enter in and they find a young man sitting beside the bed. Akihiko is nowhere on sight. "Um... Is Sanada-senpai...?" Junpei tries to ask but...

"..." The young man has a serious expression on his face which makes it looks like that he doesn't like visitors.

A sweat drop appears on his head. "I-In this room... by any chance?"

"Um... We're looking for-" Hamuko tries to explain but...

Slide. "What are you all doing here?" The one they were going to visit comes in.

"Senpai!" Yukari exclaimed.

"You wanted something?" Minato asked giving him the class roster which he requested for Junpei to get.

"Ah, but I thought I only asked Iori about this?"

"Well, they kinda tagged along." Junpei said.

"Is that so?"

"Is that it, Aki?" The young man asked as he stands up.

"Yeah, arigatou."

"Tch, I don't have time for this shit." He's about to leave but... "You..." He takes notice of the four new members of S.E.E.S

"Hm?" They asked.

"...Nevermind." He walks pass them and exits the room.

"Wh-Who was that?" Junpei asked.

"A friend from school... sort of. You know those Apathy Syndrome that's been spreading? Well, he knows some people who are sufferring from it so I asked him about it."

"What is that class roster for about by the way?" Blue Arisato asked.

"Well... Supposively, there's someone-"

Alark, alark! "Attention all visitors, visiting time is about to close up please go home now and leave the patients to their rest." An intercom announcement has been inform to the visitors.

"Oh man... Now I'm going to have a blood test huh? Well, I'll see you guys later."

"Oh okay. Ja, we'll be going now." Yukari said. The four of them left the room for their senpai to have his blood test. They head back to the dorm.

At the next couple of days, the group go on with their normal school lives but then Minato remembers the warning that the mysterious boy said to him, about him facing many obstacles that will endanger him and his friends but... with the "wild card", Igor assures him that nothing can deterred him from his path of ending the darkness that is plaguing the world. It all begun at the day when the next full moon hits...

Tick... tock... tick... tock... tick... Tock. Sharp!

Command room...

Mitsuru is doing some training with her persona though no battle tactics is involved as she is ,at the moment, their field observer. "Sigh. Still no improvements."

Keplunk. "You're still at it?" The other senior comes in.

"Yeah, you never know when surprises might come at us."

"But I thought you can't scan outside of Tartarus?"

"Well, yes, but... ...To be honest, I lack the power, maybe this is the best my persona can do when it comes to scanning. Although... The power of persona seems to be much more than I expected, we even have someone who can summon multiple personas, there's something especial about his unique ability... It was just the other when he awoken to it either."

"I have to admit I was surprised too, but in the end, it's up to him whether his full potential will be unleashed."

Mitsuru continues on her training and then suddenly... Ting! "Huh...? It's a Shadow!"

"What! You actually found one!"

"So it seems, but... It's different from what I normally detect in Tartarus almost like..." ...Both have a mixture of shock and hopeful expression.

"You mean... It's one of "those"!"

"Could be."

"Well then... This is going to be exciting. I'll wake up the others." Akihiko walks up to the huge computer and pushes the emergency button in which all members are required to come in the command room.

2 minutes later...

The four juniors come in with their equipment ready. "Where is it? I'll rip it a new one!" Junpei said.

"Relax, they haven't told us about any Shadows yet." Yukari said.

"We detected a Shadow outside of Tartarus, it's on the city." Mitsuru said.

"What!"

"We don't know the full details yet but we're sure it's another big one." Akihiko said.

"...Big one?" Hamuko asked.

"You mean..." Yukari said remembering the Shadow that attacked the dorm the other day prior to the Arisatos arrival.

"Yes, it has the same description of the Shadow the other day." Mitsuru confirms it.

"We'll be fighting another one, this will be one of your real battles so don't joke around." Akihiko said.

"Sanada, I appreaciate your concern to them, but you won't be going into this operation."

"Wha- Are you kidding!"

"You're still injured, you're only going to be a nuisance." He glares at her with that insulting word. "They'll fare better than you in your injured state, have zanchou-san inform of the situation, have faith in Arisato and the others."

"...Dammit."

"Relax, I got it covered." Junpei boasted.

"Sigh... Iori... Stupei." Yukari said.

"Ha ha... He sure is enthuasm." Hamuko said.

"I guess I have no choice, Arisato, you're in charge." The senior has enthrusted the leading role to Minato.

"Him again?" Junpei complains.

"We're counting on you." The other senior as well.

"...I'll rap this thing up, be assured of that." ...It seems his Shinigami Mode kicks in... His personality is now different from his usual calm expression.

"..." Everyone has noticed that and the atmosphere become... an aura of confidence blows in the air.

"Yeah..."

"This will be no problem." Yukari and Hamuko said thrilled by the atmosphere. Mitsuru as well. It seems his aura is boosting their confidence.

"Ja, prepare yourself, you'll be leading the others." Akihiko said

"...Heh, seems you're stuck playing leader again, how sucks it to be you..." Junpei said in a sullen tone.

"You should go now before the Shadow makes its move."

"Indeed, I'll rendevou with you in front of the station, wait for me there." Mitsuru said.

"G-Got it. Alright, let's go." Yukari said.

"Hmph, none of those who stand against us will be seeing the light of the day." Minato said with the silhoute of the reptile figure reflecting him. That must have been what triggered his Shinigami Mode. Both of them are like the opposite of each other.

Later, at Iwatodai station...

The four wait for their senior's arrival so they decided to stuff themselves with some foods which are snacks and some drinks from the vending maching to which they didn't have to pay since it's not working at the moment. "Where is she? It's been 15 minutes." Yukari asked. She's lying her back on a street lamp near the stairs.

"Siip. She'll be here soon." Junpei said taking a drink of his Mad Bull drink.

Minato is sitting on the railing with Hamuko on the stairs. "It sure is getting eery in here huh?" Hamuko said.

"Ah." Minato stares at the moon. It's full.

Yukari stares as well. "There's a full moon tonight, but it looks even creepier during the dark hour." The moon that is shining down on them can be a sign of a premonition of something danger will befall the gang. At then...

...vroom. Vroom...! "Huh? What the...!" They all heard something... The sound of a vehicle speeding echoes then...

Vroom! ...Mitsuru arrives riding a white motorcycle. She removes her helmet. "Sorry for the wait, we detected the Shadow, it's on a monorail."

"Monorail?" Yukari asked.

"It's not currently moving but the passengers in could be in danger. To get there, you need to walk in the tracks."

"Are you serious! Isn't that dangerous!" Junpei asked.

"No need to alarm, no electronic equipment function during the dark hour including the monorail."

"But... your bike..."

"It's special. Now, I'll notify if I learn something, everything else is the same."

"Oh then it will be just like Tartarus." Hamuko said.

"Exactly, now, go. The dark hour will not last long if you idle by."

"U-Understood." Yukari said.

"L-Let's do this." Junpei said.

"Ja, let us move in." Minato said with a confident expression, he crushes the can he's drinking and throws it on the nearby garbage can.

"Guh..." The girls have the impression that he is indeed "unique" in every sense of the word and it's quite making them attractive to him. ...One can wonder what surprises awaits them.

Later...

The four arrived at the monorail that is nearby Port Island station. "This is it, right?" Yukari asked.

"Are there people in?" Hamuko asked.

Ring, ring. "Can you hear me?" Mitsuru reaches Yukari through her communicator.

"Y-Yes, I hear you. We just got here, but we don't see any sign of anything out of place."

"The readings are definitely picking up from that monorail, board the train and assist each other. Proceed with extreme caution."

"Roger."

"Huh! My persona is just begging to be use!" Junpei said.

"Well then, let's get on in." The four of them enter the train with Yukari going first which she realized... "Don't look up." ...the three sweat drop at her glare.

The four of them search the first car. "This poor stiff must be a passenger. People are like this during the dark hour huh? They don't know what's going on." Junpei said. There's one coffin in the car they are on. "They don't remember a thing huh. It's probably better that way."

"Yeah." Hamuko said.

"Huh? Wait... Don't you guys... We're not on a station but the doors are wide-" Slide, slide! ...! As if responding to her fears, all of the cars' doors closed. "Ah!"

Junpei tries to open one. "Damn... It won't open!"

"Did someone close them all?" Hamuko asked.

"Guurrg... Ugh, no good, it won't budge."

"What's wrong? What happened!" Mitsuru reaches out again.

"We're trapped in. We're lock inside." Yukari said.

"Trap? ...It must be the Shadow, it knows you're there. Prepare yourselves, be ready for anything, proceed to the front car, that's where the one we're after is."

"R-Roger!" They head for the front cars. Minato keeps his confident expression as they move to cars to cars, he regains his composure while the other three have fear running through them.

"What the hell...? I don't see any Shadows." Junpei said. They proceed further on then...

"No Shadows here too... It's so quiet it's so creepy." Yukari said.

Hamuko is about to open the door the next car but... Shatter! "Gwah!" She falls down in shock.

"Hamuko!" Minato comes to her aid.

"Grr." A floating Shadow that looks like a lamp came crashing down through the left window.

"There it is!" Junpei exclaimed.

"Grr." ...! Strangely enough, it head further into car up ahead.

"Hey, get back here!"

"Wait! Something is not right... They are moving skepticaly." Mitsuru said.

"But if we don't go after it, we're gonna loose it!"

"They're moving strangely, they seem to be planning something. We should be careful." Minato said.

"I agree. Allow me to examine the cars up a-"

"Who needs your advice? We can beat that thing no problem! Hell, I'll do it myself!" Junpei runs up the car ahead.

"Hey Iori! Wait!" Yukari calls him out but-

"Behind you! Double your guard!" Mitsuru exclaimed then,

Shatter, shatter! "Grooaarr!" "Grrooaarr!" Two similar Shadows came through the windows behind them as well!

"Gyaah!"

"Hn!" Minato brings out his evoker then...! Bang! Ablaaze!

"Grooaarr!" In an instant, the Shadows dissolve into ground as they were burned by Orpheus.

"Wow..." Hamuko said amazed at her opposite personality.

"Oh man... This is just what the enemy wanted." Yukari said.

"Are you alright?" Mitsuru asked.

"Y-Yeah, we're okay. Junpei is..."

Meanwhile...

"Hiya!" Slice! Ablaze! Junpei fights his way through the attacking Shadows that are coming from the front cars up ahead. He's doing very desperate though as he is just alone and Hermes is weak against wind attacks which some of the Shadows have that elemental attack. "*gasp* *gasp* This stinks..."

"Grooaar!" *Garu* Gust!

Bonk! "Ugh!" He is knocked down to the door where he came in from. "Gr, this is bad..."

"Grooaarr!" The Shadows are about to attack him altogether then...

Slash! slash! slash! "Wuah!" Multiple slash energies passed through the door!

"Grooarr!" "Grooaar!" "Grooar!" The Shadows are all dispatch by them.

Crack! "Guh...!" Minato kicked the door open, much to Junpei's shock. "You guys..."

"Daijobou?"

"Y-Yeah, of course I am." He stands up.

"Good, ja, watch over the girls." Minato holds his rapier tightly then...

"Grooaarr!" His persona, Thanatos, mirrors his action then...

"Hiyaa!" Slice! slice!

"Grooaarr!" The Shadows are dispatched one by one, brutally.

"Are you okay?" Hamuko and Yukari come to Junpei's aid.

"Y-Yeah, I'm fine."

"Grooaarr!" The last of the Shadows dissolve with Minato and Thanatos' sword on one of them's face.

Minato dismisses Thanatos. "That takes care of them."

"See? That's what happen if you don't listen! So... Are you okay?" Yukari scolds Junpei and at the same time she's concerned about him.

"Of course I am. I was doing just fine..."

"Execuse me!"

"Ora, ora. At least he's okay." Hamuko tries to maintain peace between the two.

"Hmph."

"Be careful you four, I don't detect any movements but stay alert at all times." Mitsuru said.

...briiek... Briiek! It is then that the monorail suddenly move. "Whoa... Wh-Why are we moving?" Junpei asked frightened. The four of them are taken by surprise as the monorail started marching again despite being under the domain of the dark hour.

"It seems it's under the enemy's control..."

"Wh-Why are you so calm at the time like this...!" Yukari said.

Briiieekk! ...The monorail speeds up. "Uh... This... doesn't... look... good." Junpei said with a sweat drop.

"It's moving faster... Is it planning to take us along with it?" Minato asked.

"Huh? Wha... What do you mean?" Hamuko asked.

"That Shadow is still here, if it keeps it up, this train will crash and we will die along with it."

"If we can't stop that thing, it will crash into another train!" Mitsuru said.

"WH-WHAT! Oh God, what are we gonna do!" Yukari said frightened.

"Calm down and listen, I detect a strong presence at the front car, that must be our target! Destroy it!"

Shatter! shatter! "Grooaarr!" To further their trouble, various Shadows came crashing in.

"What kind of messed up ride is this!" Junpei exclaimed.

"Get them all!" Minato commanded and then...! Bang, bang, bang! Slice! slice! slice! pierce! All of hell has broken loose inside the monorail...

Briiieek! "Whoaa...! We're speeding up!" Yukari said.

"Gyaah!" Hamuko screams.

"Tch, let's go!" Minato runs up-front!

"H-Hey! Wait up!" The other three follow behind.

Minato kept passing through cars every cars that the train has until... "The target is up ahead, prepare yourself!" Mitsuru said.

"Ah. Here we go..." Keplunk. He opens the door the driver car. There is...

"There it is!" Junpei said. It front of them is huge Shadow that seems to be female and it has a very long hair with multiple long bangs that are all over the car and it's wearing a butterfly mask. "What the hell! Is... Is this the frickin boss of these guys!"

"It's... it's..." Hamuko said.

"This is the front car, it has to be!" Yukari said.

"Finish it off! Quickly!" Mitsuru said.

"Roger. Sa... Let's go!" Minato's expression becomes very excited and then... Bang!

"Grooaarr!" He summons Thanatos!

"Grooaarr!" The "boss" Shadow take notice of their presences and try to shove them off with her bangs that are all over the car.

"Whoa!" Whoosh!

"Watch out!" Whoosh!

"Gyaah!" Whoosh! They all dodge them then...!

Slice! "Hua!" Minato cut off the one of its bangs then...! Tap, tap, tap! He runs towards it!

"Minato-kun!" Bang! Ablaaaze...! Hamuko summons Eurydice and burns the bangs.

"Look out!" Bang! Gust, gust! Yukari decided to help out as well so she summoned Io and put out the fires with her wind attacks and with them, the bangs.

Minato continues running towards the Shadow! "Hiya!"

"Grooaarr!" Icee! Icycle! Shatter! It send out ice shards towards him to which he dispatch them by destroying them with his rapier and Thanatos.

"Here dude!" Bang! Igniiite! Junpei fired at the Shadow to stop it from attacking then...

"Grooaarr!"

Whoosh! "Hiyaa!"

"Grooaarr!" Both Minato and Thanatos lunge forth towards it then...!

Claash...! It blocks them with one of its remaining bangs. "I'm sure you would like to die with all of your lack of self-esteem lady but..." Clash! He broke off the lock then... "It's too bad that the only one who will die tonight is you! So I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to REST FOR ETERNITY!" Slash!

"Grooaarr!"

"Hiyaa!" "Grooaarr!" *Vorpal Blade* Slash, slash, slash!

"Grooaarr!" A lot of wounds have been infected on the Shadow causing it to fall down to ground.

"Minato-kun!" Hamuko calls out.

"Hn. Boku wa Shinigami de..." Minato lunges forth his rapier for the final blow with Thanatos mirroring him... "...Shinigami wa boku de." STAB...

"Grooaaarr!" The Shadow is stabbed on its head and died. It slowly dissolve into black mists.

"Did we make it in time...?" Junpei asked. ...The train is still moving in fast pace. "Hey, why are we still moving!"

"We're going to fast!" Yukari said.

"We have to put on break!" Hamuko said.

"What are you waiting for! There's a train up ahead!" Mitsuru exclaimed desperately angry.

"Dammit! I don't know how to stop this thing...!" Junpei said.

"Hmph. Leave that to me. Ha ha!" Minato runs up-front then...

"Gyaah!" The three duck in terror but... shriiieekk... ...

"Whew..." Minato pulled the lever that seems to be the break. "It's over." He comes back to the other with his Shinigami Mode wearing off, he's now back to his usual self.

"Did... did we stop?" Junpei asked as he slowly stands up.

"I... I think so." Yukari said.

"Minato-kun, did you...?" Hamuko asked.

"Is everyone alright?" Mitsuru asked.

"I think so... Ha ha... My knees are shaking." Yukari said.

"Dude... I'm so drench in sweat..." Junpei said.

"Sigh... I'm so glad you're safe. I'm sorry there wasn't much I can do, you four have done a good job, come on home."Mitsuru said giving them permission to return.

"Ja, I'm opening the doors." Minato push the button for the doors.

"But... How did you know which one was the break?" Yukari asked.

"...Through instincts, I guess." He said, well actually, he was on his Shinigami Mode and by instinct, he learned which lever to pull.

"You saved me again, arigatou."

"Hm, arigatou Minato-kun." The two girls said grateful at the blue Arisato.

"Ah whatever. Wanna grab a bit to eat? I'm frickin hungry." Junpei said.

Another successful battle for the young man. Now the Prophecy begins... The coming of the entity that will brought about The End will soon come... How are you going to fare with such being...? Only the flames of light will guide your way... Go... and go with the lights that accompany you.

End of Chapter 2

Note: I will not including all of the Social Links here, the ones I'm including are the people in school and two people from outside the school such as Maiko and Akinari, also, Nyx will not be an entity that cannot die here in which Minato will 'kill' her and he will... well, I won't get to that yet, you just have to read it. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this. Ja ne.
