One Hundred Little Persona's
By: TheWildFool2011
(I do not own persona characters, nor do I own the plot.)
Yes, I have lost both my parents' years ago when I was young, and no I do not want pity from others. Born under the family name Shirogane as a female can be very difficult by trying to continue the detective line…trust me I know.
Working in an environment where men are sexiest claiming this is not a job for women…I'll prove them wrong, all of them. They'll see us women capable of doing the exact same thing they are capable of doing.
Even as I worked hard on cases as a detective, people…those same exact men I wanted to portray as deemed me as a child working too hard.
Heh, I find it hard to achieve my dream of being a great detective if I am a female.
"Hey! Naoto-kun wait up!" Naoto turned around to see Rise trying to catch up to her.
Ah, yes my friends. The ones who saved me from myself…the ones who witnessed everything, and now know everything about me. Most of them couldn't believe that I was a girl, hiding my gender just to be respected by others around me, they wouldn't understand that til I explained it to them.
Truthfully I was more open and closer to Rise. Not because she was female and was also a first year, but because I felt she would understand me a little more than the others.
"Oh, hey Rise-chan. What's going on?"
"Nothing just wanna walk home with ya is all. And plus wasn't class a riot today? Everything was sooo crazy, hopefully it'll be funny like that tomorrow, huh?"
Deep down something in me was looking for more excitement…maybe even involves getting the respect from the men I work around. Yeah….that'd be something worth working for, but I knew my job was to solve this case and now I know I'm not working alone on this one…
"Yeah, hopefully…hey wanna go hang out somewhere? I mean after we finish our homework of course."
"Mm-hm that sounds like a plan to me! Let's go to my place since its closer, 'kay?"
I know now…that this case will forever change my life, and the way I view everything around me. My friends…my senpai…I thank all of them, now I know if I ever need help, I have people I can look up to.
"Alright, let's get going…don't wanna stick around too long…those fan girls might catch up and then I'll have a hard time shaking them off my ass, haha."
We both moved forward making our way to Rise's Grandmothers' tofu shop…forever taking each day carefully with graceful steps. Though…I was truthfully still confused…to be the man I want to become? Or to just do my job and accept my appearance, go on not caring what men think of me…that will remain unknown for the time being…right now I'll focus on the coming days showing that I have grown to understand what teamwork means.
Author Note: Chapter six has arrived, please do stay tuned in for more. Til next time peace out!
