Because my school tests are coming, I won't be able to post for a while.I do not own Persona, Resident Evil or Metal Gear series.
August 30, Kosawa's house
Kosawa: THERE'S NO WAY I CAN DEFEAT THE SENATOR! HE'S EVEN HARDER THAN SAM!
He was just playing the prototype version of Metal Gear Solid Rising. His enraged screams may have woke up all Inaba!
Sasuke: Kosawa, stop whining! It's just a game and he doesn't seem to be that though.
Kosawa: Let's see you beat him then, 3000 yen that you can't beat him in ten tries!
Sasuke: Deal, Yuki! WHAT THE HELL!? 500% OF LIFE!
I grabbed the controller and played, that MONSTER kicked my ass in the first five tries.
Kosawa: I haven't told you, he's impossible to beat.
Sasuke: Shut up, Kosawa! I still have five tries left!
Souji: Can you two stop screaming like two girls! I'm trying to sleep! And Sasuke, there's a girl outside wanting to talk with you.
Sasuke: Just wait a little, I'm almost killing this boss.
Kosawa: C'mon, I need 3000 yen! Die, Raiden, die!
I was almost beating the senator, but the in next moment, Souji slashed both the TV and the PS3 in multiple small pieces with his katana!
Souji: Sasuke, NOW! And Yuki, if you want money, go and get a work!
He kicked us both outside the house, where we landed on the door.
Souji: Sorry, I though the door was open...
Sasuke: That's... okay...
He then opened the door and throw us outside, Kosawa landed in a trash can and I landed in a bush.
Rin: You two okay!?
Sasuke: Ouch! That hurt! Hi, Rin.
Rin: I was just passing by... Do you want to go to the fireworks festival?
Sasuke: Sure.
Hill overlooking the town
We met with the other I.T. members, except Teddie, who was hitting on girls until he put the moves on Hanako and she dragged him away.
Chie: Wha-!? Can we just leave him like that!?
Yosuke: Sure we can. His karma caught up to him.
Rise: Aren't you being a little cold to Teddie today, Yosuke-senpai?
Rin: That's cruel... even for Teddie.
Yosuke: When I think back to what he did this morning? No, I rally don't. Truth be told, I wish I could send two or three more Hanakos at him...
Sasuke: What happened?
Yosuke: Urgh... He dug up some private stuff from my room and brought it to the Hanamura family breakfast. He was all like, "Yosuke, what's this magazine about?" Can you imagine the humiliation because of him!?
Sasuke: Ouch!
Kanji: Dude, what's wrong?
Sasuke: I just got thrown away against a door today...
Chie: It's your fault for having that stuff.
Yosuke: It's not like I ever thought anyone would wave it around in front of my parents!
Rin: You really are talking about it with girls around?
Yukiko: Huh? Is he not talking about his secret savings?
Rise: Secret savings. For a guy. Right. Let's leaving him be...
We then heard Teddie's voice. We looked behind, and Teddie completely lost all his fur! I couldn't hold it and laugh it hard.
Yosuke: Okay, that's worse than I expected, the people are going to stare at you like that. Hurry and take it off.
Teddie: But I'm like a newborn child inside...! Just your magazine from this morning, Yosuke!
Rin: A newborn child, again?
Yosuke: Quit reopening this morning's wounds!
Nanako: There they are! Big bro!
Teddie went running like his life depends of it. After a few seconds he came back without the "bear skin" like nothing happened at all. Then started the fireworks and we all watch then until they stopped.
Announcement: That concludes our program for the summer fireworks festival. Thank you for coming, and all of us here in Inaba hope to see you again next year as well!
After a while Nanako and Dojima went out.
Sasuke: Darn! The summer is over!
Rin: Don't remind me of that. But at least we all have good memories about the festival.
Yosuke: Thanks to a certain someone, I don't have anything but bitter memories of that. And "someone" is you, Teddie!
Kanji: Well, I had fun.
Yosuke: Oh yeah, you were good at that candy-cutting... Wait, that's not what I meant! I was expecting something different.
Sasuke: Yeah...
Yosuke: W-Wait a sec... What does that mean? What are you comparing it to...? D-Did you go with someone else the next day...!?
Rin faces becomes really red, the same happened to mine's.
Chie: What's wrong with you, Rin? You seem fidgety.
Yukiko: Yours face seems awfully red, too.
Rin: I-It does it?
We looked at each other and then looked at other direction. Everyone except Yosuke and Chie were impressed.
Yosuke: I already knew it.
Rise: When?
Yosuke: When I called him to play Resident Evil 5 at my house and he told me that he was on a date.
Sasuke: Anyways, I'm feeling that I forgot something...
Rin: The school will start two days from now?
Sasuke: No. It's something else.
Yu: Trolling someone?
Sasuke: No! That's Kosawa's... Darn, I forgot that he's still in a trash can!
Yosuke: How that happened?
Sasuke: We made a deal, I have to beat a final boss in ten tries or I'd give him 3000 yen. Then, Souji-dono slashed the TV and thrown us away for screaming like crazy. I guess that means I owe him 1500 yen.
Yu: That explains the weird screams that I heard on the way here.
Sasuke: Well, I should go now. Bye!
September 1, Junes' food court
Yosuke: Isn't the class trip coming up soon? Um... Where are we going...?
Sasuke: Port Island.
Yukiko: I heard it's an artificial island that faces the ocean. It's a pretty big city.
Sasuke: There's a lot of places to hang out.
Chie: Uh, actually... we may not have any time to goof of during the this trip. We're just going to the private school in the first day, visit some factories on the second day, and we're going back in the third day.
Sasuke: That means we're going to Gekkoukan High.
Yu: How do you know that?
Sasuke: I used to live there.
Rise: That means Sasuke-senpai and I'll show you guys arround!
Yosuke: But we're in different years from you, Rise-chan...
Rin: Actually, both the first and second years will be going.
Kanji: Well, at least we won't be bored with you around, Senpai.
Rise: Gosh, I'm trying to remember the last time I went to Port Island and I wasn't working... *chuckle* This'll be great!
Yosuke: I wish I could be that positive about it... Doesn't this seem like a pain in the ass to anyone else?
Chie: Guess whose the idea it was? King Moron's. It's just the kind of thing he'd come up with...
Yosuke: Noo... King Moron...! Why must you torture us from beyond the grave...!?
Sasuke: I had to thank him.
Teddie: Noooo... King Moron...!
Sasuke: Where did you come from!?
Kanji: You don't even know who that is.
Teddie: Hey, tell me more about this trip. Where is Port Island? What's there?
Yosuke: Get back to work, will ya?
September 2, Samegawa riverbank
Yu and I practically got dragged here by Marie.
Marie: So, about my memories... What do you two think I should do?
Sasuke: Have of any clues?
Marie: No, nothing. Like I said before, *shows a bamboo comb* this is the only thing I remember. If you remember, I told you that I had this when I first started remembering... Will this help?
Yu: It's made of bamboo.
Marie: ...Bamboo? What, is that rare? But this doesn't look like the ones at Junes. They don't look anything like this. It seems older... Do you know any stores that might sell stuff like this?
Sasuke: Maybe Tatsumi Textiles...
Marie: That old-timer's place? Hmmm... That's kinda surprising. Well, let's go. The shopping district, was it?
Shopping District, Tatsumi Textiles
Kanji: Yo, welco-oh, Senpai.
Rise: Ooooh, Senpai, what a coincidence! Oh, Marie-chan's with you too? Huh? Wait... Don't tell me the two of you are on a date...
Yu: It's not like that.
Sasuke: You know that I'm here too, right!? So how could this be a date?
Rise: Sheesh, don't scare me like that. Did you come here to see Kanji?
Kanji: Huh...? What's up?
Marie: *show him the bamboo comb* Do you know what this is? Tell me anything you know. Anythig at all.
Kanji: This thing? It's, uh... It's a comb. A pretty damn old one.
Rise: That's a comb? It doesn't look like it's very easy to use, use with that shape...
Kanji: So, what do you want with me? You need to figure out where this thing came from?
Yu: Can you?
Kanji: Er, I don't know anything, but... Hey! Mom! Come over here! Yo!
Rise: Oh, yeah. Kanji's mom might know something about it...
Kanji's mother: I hear you, I hear you. Don't shout so loud- Oh, hello. I haven't seen you in a while. Is this girl another of Kanji's friends?
Kanji: She wanted to know about this comb. You know anything, Mom?
Kanji's mother: A comb? Let me see... Hmm... This is very old. I'm sorry. We don't care anything like this one.
Marie: Can you tell me anything about it? Anything at all.
Kanji's mother: ...I've never seen a comb shaped like this. I don't think it would be for everyday use. You may have better luck asking at a museum or a gallery than at a clothing store.
Rise: Museum...? Uh, so it's rare?
Kanji's mother: Well... I don't know if it's rare, but it's definetely not something that would be sold around here.
Kanji: Huh? If it's not sold, then where is somebody gonna get one? C'mon, lady, help us out here!
Kanji's mother: Don't talk to your mother like that! I'm sorry I couldn't be any help. But I've never seen anything like this.
Marie: Why do I have this? Would I have been given it as a gift?
Kanji's mother: I'm not so sure about that. Combs don't make very good gifts. The word comb, "kushi," has the sound of the words for pain, "ku," and death, "shi." It's an old belief that combs have the power to cause separation. But, I don't know if kids today care about that stuff.
Rise: Huh, I didn't know about that. But now that you think about it, it does have those words in it...
Customer: Are you in, Tatsumi-san? May I have a word with you?
Kanji's mother: I'm coming. Just a moment, please. Kanji, please see to our guests. I need to speak with a customer. Please, make yourselves at home.
She left.
Kanji: "Pain" and "death," huh. Yeah, I guess I wouldn't want to give someone that.
Rise: She said "separation"? I didn't know that combs are actually bad luck.
Yu: Yeah...
Marie: Separation... Humm...
Rise: Marie-chan, are you all right? Does your head hurt?
Kanji: Whoa, you okay? Sit your ass down and get some rest.
Sasuke: Do you remember something?
Marie: I don't know... But... there's something. Ugh, it's gone. I can't remember... Something came up in my mind. I was almost about to recall it...
Kanji: ...What, you can't remember? You don't remember anything about that comb?
Rise: Huh? Wait a second. That's not you'r comb...?
Marie: Don't worry about it. That's my problem. This isn't a normal comb, huh? What did she say? A Moozium? A Gallery? Maybe I'll remember something if we go to one of those. You help too, both of you.
Yu and I nodded.
Marie: I'm tired. I'm going home today, but let's continue this latter.
She left.
Kanji: ...What's up with her?
Rise: Marie-chan's a bit mysterious... Senpai, Marie-chan's leaving!
Yu left too, probably going to excort her back to the Velvet room. I also went to my house play on my PS2 for the remaining of the day.
