Unknown:Unknown

The halls had eerie portraits on them as the three pass through the hallway. "Man this place is creepy." Tsu said staying behind him. Travis listens to him and then he thought about what he said. He then turns to Morgana. "By the way, what is with this place? Why doe it look like this?"

Morgana looks at them and starts to speak. "This is a world given form by warped desires of humans. I decided to call this place the Palace." Travis made a confused look. "This place isn't a palace." "Well there is a palace in the center, but I call this place because I couldn't find a better name for it." she said. Entering the room was a chest. "Ooh! A chest! What is it? Open it!" Tsu said. Travis shrugs and went to open it, getting 2 medicines and 2 dew souls. "Well this can be useful." he said to himself as he pockets his loot.

The three moved on until they encountered three shadows. Two were crows but one of the being a ghost figure with a pumpkin for a head. Travis moves to cover as he motion the two with him. "One of them is different." he voices out quietly. Tsu clutches his fist in excitement. "So what? We can take them." Tsu said as he starts to move to them, but both Travis and Morgana stop him. "Hey wait!"

He turns to them, "What for? We need to beat them to move on don't we?" he said to them. "We can't just charge at them. We could end up in a bad situation. Let's try to sneak up on them." Travis told him as he watches the shadows movements. There was a moment where they were able to move, so he moves to a different spot, with Tsu following him quickly. The two kept this up until Travis was able to strike one of them.

Travis then thought about a different way to attack now, "Tsu, ready your SMG!" he ordered him as he materializes his weapon. Tsu nods and made it appear and aims it at the creatures. "Fire!" he cries out. The two launching their attacks at random enemies, dealing some damage to the group.(24 dmg to all enemies.) The creatures stuttered from the attack, but remained upright.

"Time to fight!" Travis said as he reaches for his mask, "Persona!" he rips it off and summons his persona, which it strikes one of the crow with Eiha, destroying it. (Travis's mp: 60/64) Tsu grins as he said, "Let me in on this." he immediately reached for his own, "Persona!" as he rips off his mask his own persona, Ambrosia. It whips his two hammers in front of him, and when it did, a small chunk of ice formed at the crow, knocking it down. Tsu's mp: 49/53

"Wow Tsu, you hit the enemy's weakpoint!" Morgana said as she watches. Tsu smirks as he reaches for his mask again, planning to summon his persona again. "Wait!" Travis calls out. "Save your persona! Use your weapon!" he said to him. He turns to him. "Come on Travis, that was awesome!" he said excitedly. Travis looks at him sternly. "We need to get to Claire, so we need to work on saving our strength." he explained to him. With that, Tsu withdrew his hand and calls for his hammer. He moved and swung at the crow, evaporating it into black mist.

"Two down, one to go!" Travis stated going for the strange pumpkin creature with his revolver and took a shot, the creature being knocked down. Seeing the moment, the two rushed to it, holding it up with their weapons trained. "W-wait!" it cried out all of the sudden. "Wh-what the?" Tsu called as he aims his smg at the creature. "A shadow that talks?" Travis questions.

"Actually that's not a shadow. It's a demon." Morgana said watching the battle. "They're different from the shaddows you come across, they have different personalities from each other." she finishes speaking as they turn their attention to the demon.

"Why are you talking to us? Were you fighting alongside the crows?!" Travis said making sure to stay ready in case it's a trap. The demon shook its head. "No. I was hanging out with them until you two showed up. They were all fighting with you guys, I'm actually impress you two defeated them."

Tsu keeps a menacing look at him. "What does this have to do with us?" The pumpkin creature shudders a bit at Travis's friend. "Well it obviously looks like you two will have a journey ahead of you, so I might be fun to come along with you." it offered.

Travis looks at the demon. "You want to come with us?" "Yeah, it'll be fun. I can use fire and ailment moves. So I can help with troublesome enemies." It said with a grin. "Well Travis, it's your call." Tsu said leaving it to him while keeping his weapon trained on him.

Travis kept his eye on the creature. He doesn't really know about all this persona and demons stuff, so he figured he could use some more help. "Okay, you will serve us." he said to him. "Try anything funny and you'll pay for it."

"You won't regret this. I'm Pyro Jack and were gonna have a great time." Pyro Jack said. The moment after it said that, he was surrounded in a wave of light, soon he turned into the same mask Travis was wearing. Then it move into his hand. Travis places it over his own, which melded with his own.

The two weapons disappear as they take a breath. "What was that all about?" Tsu ask looking you. Travis shrugs his shoulders as Morgana move to them. "You did very well Travis. You too Tsu, though a little rusty." she said. "Hey, I did great!" he said to her.

Travis sighs as he feels his vision darkening. "Travis, are you okay?" Travis doesn't answer as his vision completely blackens. Travis opens his eyes to find that he's in the same blue room that he was in before arriving to Michigan. He got up and examined the room. "What is this?" he ask out loud as he moves to the bars. "I was in a dungeon a moment ago."

He can see Igor sitting with a smile on his face. "Welcome. Do not be alarmed, you are in a subconscious state in the real world." he added the last part to calm you. "Okay, but why am I here right now?" Travis voices his question.

"This is a space that only those who have, in one way or another, entered into a contract may enter..." Mira started speaking first, then she paused. "You were put in a life threatening situation, during which you subconsciously heard the call to awaken, and you chose to follow the destiny of your inner voice..." Mara continues after Mira and stops as well, which Mira then adds, "Thereby enacting your glorious awakening to your power."

Travis was confused at the moment until he recall his encounter with the two knight shadows. He expected to die at that moment, but then heard the voice somewhere and had took off a mask on his face, which how he obtained his persona. 'So that was the contract.' he thought to himself.

"About the being you obtained. It is called a persona. Igor started to speak now. "The Persona is the self you show to face the people around you. You may refer to it like a mask that protects your heart." he pause for a bit as you think about what he said and nodded.

He has a smile on his face before continuing. "Normally a person holds one persona in their hearts, you are different. You hold the ability called the wild card... Compared to that of others, it is very special. It is like the number zero... empty, yet holding infinite potential within itself. With that kind of power, you can hold a number of personas in your heart." Travis's eyes filled with curiosity. 'I can hold a number of personas?' he thought to himself.

The twins look at Igor who nods at them. Then Mira walk towards your cell and let out her hand. Seeing this Travis reach for it and she holds it for a moment before letting go. When that happened, he felt something in your hand. Travis look to see a small blue key in your hand.

"Make sure you hold on to that key." Igor said to him. "From this forth, you are our guest in this velvet room. Your destiny will require you to hone your power, and for that, you will inevitably require our help." he pause for a moment before continuing speaking.

"There is but one price for this assistance..." Travis looks at him. "And that would be?" "You must abide by your contract and assume responsibility for all decisions you may make." he answers. Travis looks at the man and his two assistants. He was still kinda confused by all this, but he figure he must make sure to do what he believe is best. "I understand." Igor smiles, "Very well. The next time we meet, it will be whenever you find our door again." After he finishes, the world starts to go black.
