CHAPTER 11 : The Father of Sky


March 13 2012 Dojima's residence, Living Room

7: 15 AM

Narukami Yu right now in serious thinking, he don't realize there's voice called for him.

"…an"

'From Margareth's warning,Yu thought absentmindedly 'my trial would come in two days from now, I need to make sure I fully prepared.

"ONII-CHAN!" His little-sister figure shouted, slightly upset being ignored.

That make him snap out from his trance, he saw his surrogate little sister looking at him worriedly. She holding a chopstick, he now realizes them in middle of having breakfast. As usual Dojima already went working for his busy job.

"Sorry" Yu apologized "what did you say?"

"Onii-chan, are you okay?" She asks with genuine worried tone "You had strange face" Yu feels bad for making her worry like this.

"I'm okay" Yu smile reassuring her "just something on my mind"

"…I see, then its fine". The little brunette continued eating while watching TV.

Yu smile watching his 'little-sister' before continued his meal.

FLASHBACK


Yu found himself in familiar place that full with violet decoration, in front of him Igor sitting like usual, his hand intertwined while resting his chin on it. He also found three other residents who gave him a light bow (With light smile in Margareth's case) which he also bows in return.

"Yo". He finally realized there's someone else beside them and casually waved.

"Minato, you've been called too?" Yep, he is Arisato Minato, his new friend and his comrade in this ordeal. The bluenette on the chair next to him, Yu sit on the most left chair while Minato on the middle while the left one is empty.

"Yes and No, It just coincidence I come here when you about to be summoned here" Minato sighed" I come here through velvet door to escape from certain stalker" Yu sweat drop at that and decided not to pursue the subject.

"Well then, shall we bring the subject why you summoned here?" Igor chuckled.

Both Wild card users now pay attention to Igor.

"On March 15 at dusk the trial shall begun for you, Narukami-sama" Yu tensed "I shall give you a little bit detail about your adversary". Minato's left eye twitched.

"Wait a minute old man" Minato halt the conversation "How come I don't get any information about Janus before I encounter him".

"I truly apologize to you and ashamed we fail to support you" Igor said with apologized tone and hint of shame. "I never thought that your trial befall so soon, much sooner than I expected".

"Well, there's no need to feel responsible I just want to know" Minato scratching his cheek lightly "Also I survived so it's all good" Elizabeth glared at him.

"By the inch of your life…" She said with flat tone "Why you always so reckless? You just released from the great seal!" She said with angry and worried expression which contrasts from her usual carefree face.

"Because…" The bluenette staring at short-haired female resident "That's how I always had been survive until now" ending it with smirk which makes the said resident sighed in defeat and another Wild Card's user looked at him with interest.

"How is your condition right now?"

"Nothing really" The blue-haired teen said nonchalantly while shrugging "I just can't manifest personae anymore"

"…Can you repeat that?"

"It's nothing really?" Minato said with mock thinking pose which make the silver-haired teen's eye twitched.

"After that"

"I can't manifest personae anymore?"

" ' !" Yu can't help but shouted, if not because the seriousness of situation he would be facepalmed.

It's not something to laugh about, without persona how can he survive the ordeal.

"Well well, calm down Narukami-sama" Igor motioned him to sit down which Yu complied but his eyes tell him he need explanation "Minato-sama might not able to summon persona anymore but it doesn't mean he completely lost his power, it's the opposite actually"

"What do you mean?"

"Becoming barrier which prevents Nyx and Erebus came into contact for years gradually changing his power and that last battle against Janus becomes the trigger an awakening for another possibility."

Yu looked at Minato then at Igor "Another possibility?"

"Long story short, I can't use anything like Agi, or Garu, etc...But" Minato touched the table from below with his right index finger and to Yu' surprise, he lifted the big table without even breaking a sweat with ONLY his one finger.

"I can use their strength directly, for example right now I equipping Thor and just like you see I can use his true physical strength, also..."

Minato place the table back carefully so not to break it. "And I can cast Thunder too because that's what Thor can do according to myth but it's not Zio anymore." The Blunette said while lightning cracked on his right fist.

"Another change is..." Minato take out a steel pipe and close his eyes, Yu suddenly can feel air around Minato changed, and as a wild card he knew that he changing his persona. A blue light surround the S.E.E.S leader then the pipe turned into a sword

"As you can see..." The crimson sword with menacing aura formed in his hand"This is Gram, Siegfried' sword"

"That's...very convenient" Yu flabbergasted looking at the sword. Minato gave a sign to Elizabeth which he nodded then walk slowly toward him.

"It might be being able to cut like all the swords can but..."

SNAP!

With single sweep from Elizabeth snapped the sword into two.

"The durability still same with the material I used" Yu looked at the snapped sword turned into pipe once again who also snapped into two.

"That's where this come in" Minato open his palm and light gathered on it, then after a blinding light faded another sword appear.

Yu looked at the sword with awe, its golden hilt is decorated with unique motives and at the bottom of hilt there's small green jewel embedded. The blade itself is blue sky and leaking some faint aura.

"This is Mars; I got this as a gift from defeating Janus" Then suddenly once again Elizabeth doing a sweep with same power if not stronger than before.

KLANG!

The shockwave can be felt all around the velvet room but the blue sword who hit directly doesn't even dent.

"See, a perfect material for any swords" The S.E.E.S team leader looked at Investigation team leader with smug grin which just put his hands up in surrender "Okay okay, you got a cool item there".

With satisfied smirk, he let Mars disappear.

"As amusing this is, it's time..."

Igor glanced at Margareth who then nodded before open her grimore, the grimore shine with purple color, Margareth golden eyes turned into purple and then she speak in Trance.

"Jupiter, the 'Sky Father'.

He worshipped in his many other names, he can control four elementals given of his reign over sky, Fire, water, wind, and thunder.

He has four avatars represent each of his elemental, each avatar priories to help each others in destroying their enmity.

The four avatars can merged themselves and become Jupiter himself, he almost invisible against physical damage but that's the only way he can be harmed with because he immune against all elementals include light or darkness.

But do not falter, there's no being without weakness. You have to find it by yourself, never give up because you never know the weakness might be actually pretty obvious than you think."


(FLASHBACK END)

After Yu done with his breakfast he immediately leave the house after saying good-bye to Nanako first of course, he goes to JUNES with slow pace, reminiscing about the last year events while enjoying the rural scenery.

He became more attached to this town because the scenery and he had friends which he can trust with his life, now he only need a girlfriend then everything would be perfect, but the girls he know only saw him as a best friend at best so it won't be that easy.

If only he knew…


March 13, 2012. Wild duck burger

7.19 AM

Eating breakfast with pretty girl is a wonderful experience which many men would die for, but for current Arisato Minato it's awkward.

He chewed the burger trying to look impassive but it's proved hard with a metallic girl sit next to you and VERY close while watching (or staring) right next to you.

It was a normal day for Minato except his wake up on top of random building because the cursed sun interferes with his peaceful slumber. If you wondering why he sleep outside, it's because there an android girl following him anywhere, so hotel is out of question.

He wonders if he found attractive by non-human females.

And like that was not enough, the first thing he saw isn't the calm blue sky but a face of his red-eyed stalker who only an inch away from him. Usually a normal person would be freaked out by that but the person called Arisato Minato is anything but normal.

FLASHBACK


Minato is dreaming, it was a nice dream where he able to finish the challenge at Hagakure bowl. People clapping at him, it was nice feeling really, at least not until he saw a giant bowl of ramen fall from sky and he directly below it.

At this time, Minato's eyes snapped open. But he can't make a usual comment 'it's just a dream' like most of people in his situation, why you ask? It's because there's his android teammate, Aigis which fully dressed with Gekkoukan uniform in front…I mean on top of him, crawling on her four.

She blinked when Minato suddenly opened his eyes and staring at her with 'impassive' expression. She stopped but that just for an instant; she immediately continues doing whatever she intends to. The white-haired beauty once again lowered her head, trying to touch his lips with her.

Keyword 'Tried'

Minato by his sudden reflex placing his right palm at Aigis' face.

"…Tentatively I ask, what you are doing here? And what you intent to do just now?"

Instead of answering, she just pull out a book which have a little…umm…'unique' cover. She then opens the book, revealing the first page where there's a scene of a man and woman kissing.

"The woman in this book…she look so happy, I don't understand what making her look that way. It's just a lips meet lip…" Aigis said in monotone.

She didn't know? Well maybe that's natural. There's no way the scientists going to bother installed that kind of information into 'Anti-Shadow'.

"Where you find that ero…*cough*adult book".

"…Koromaru-san bring it with him"

"From?"

"…Iori-san's room"

"Did you finish reading that?"

"…It's not wise to proceed further without understand the basic"

"I see…"

'Well at least she's not read more than that' Minato sighed mentally.

"…Then, once more"

"No, and I confiscated this". Minato push Aigis and then take the book. Aigis' face is like a child who lost her favorite toys.

"But that Iori san's…" She said in monotone but it's almost sound like a whine (from minato's hearing at least)

"I give this back to him later, now can you leave since I need to get dressed."

"Understood." Aigis nodded and give up…for now.

But at that time Minato's underestimate Aigis' level of curiosity, when she saw interactions between opposite gender which she picked anywhere, book, TV, or saw it personally, she always come to him with excuse 'teach me' which actually sound erotic from Minato's perspective.


FLASHBACK END

And thus, from Aigis 'training' Minato unconsciously pretty much immune against 'charm' status.

If you wondering what happen to the book problem, it's settled pretty fast.

Knock Mitsuru's room…

Handed the book…

Say a few words 'Junpei's property' and 'Aigis' Naivety'…

A single loud cry of despair…

There, everything back to normal except for two, Junpei who constantly in daze with blank eyes, and Minato who became Aigis 'personal teacher' for unknown reason to others dorm mates.

"Morning" Minato said while let out a yawn.

After his encounter with Aigis 'sister' (or so she claim), she following him like he some sort of rare animal. He trying to shake her off from his tail by going to the place where girl usually don't want to enter male public bathroom. But Minato forgot she is 'Aigis sister', and she act like Aigis when he first meet her in other word, DON'T know any shame.

As last resort, he find shelter inside velvet room where she can't enter and kill some time there with Elizabeth and others. He finally give up to trying make her give up following him after he found her still standing on her previous spot, waiting for him.

Because of her unusual 'attire', many look at her strangely; they must be thinking she must be a cosplayer or something. Even now people inside 'Wild Burger' staring at her while the said person staring at him, its strange feeling.

"Want this?" Minato break the pregnant silence by offering her a burger which still untouched by him, he can't bear her staring at any longer. She have same expression with Elizabeth who always curious and saying strange things but at least Elizabeth TALKED.

Metis slowly take the burger without a word and after looking at it for a while then she shove it to her mouth much to Minato's amusement.

Minato look at his wallet, hoping he's had enough money to buy her clothes. 'This gonna be a long day' Minato mentally sighed.


January 31, Tartarus top floors

Dark Hour

"ONII-CHAN, DON'T!"

Minako can only stare helplessly seeing her brother floating toward the adversary. She tried to stand up but the force of gravity is too much for her, everyone except Minato lying on the floor, even Aigis and Shinjiro who's had the most physical strength.

Minako thrust her palm toward her only relative but of course because of the distance she reaches nothing. The more Minato closing to Nyx, the more sense of dread come to her.

'If I lost him here, I won't able to see him ever again'.

Minako push that thought immediately, her brother won't leave her, HE PROMISED!

Spending these ten years with him, she always thought it always stay like this together, never even once she think these kind of life will be over.

Now that she looked her brother silhouette which became smaller and smaller she thinks…

'If Onii-chan is gone, what became of me…?'

She unconsciously became dependent on him, it's because him beside her that's why she can laugh, smile, and enjoying her life.

Before she realized it, her affection toward him is already surpassed that sister's affection toward her brother.

That's why when her brother surrounded by girls, she always drag him away with excuse 'to save him from fangirls'. To tell the truth she scared, scared if her brother found a girlfriend he will abandon her even thought she herself knew he won't do that.

When she found out that her feeling toward her brother is the feeling that shouldn't sister had toward her brother, she distance herself from him. Even as far as trying to find a boyfriend to kill her own 'unhealthy' feeling.

But, none of them can be compared to her brother; she doesn't go for the guys from S.E.E.S member since she doesn't feel any romantic feeling toward any of them.

She always sit alone at Paulownia mall or Iwatodai station, From what she overhear from the girls, Guys will try to hit on alone girl, so she do just that. But no one from the guys who approach her trying to get know her, from their attitude they only want one night stand with her or just some pervert old man.

When she had enough and decided to go with whoever barely passable, the guy lead her into a dark alley where his two friends waiting to have some 'fun' with her. Needless to say, they need one trip to hospital because of her exploration in Tartarus, she stronger than common people.

When she realized it, the days already dark. She don't know how long did she sit alone at Nagasaki Shrine, below the surf board. The sky is raining, she hugs her knees while sobbing, it's been a long time since she last crying.

Then, a familiar voice called out to her

"Found you"

Minako's eyes snapped open; the first thing she saw is an unfamiliar ceiling.

'That's right; I remember I sleep in my old room'.

She touches her eyelids and she can feel a trace of tears.

"Onii-chan…" She muttered softly.


March 13, 2012. Dormitory's lounge

7.54 AM

"Hey Minako! Good morning" Yukari the first noticed Minako climb down the stairs.

"Morning all"

"Are you okay?" Fuuka look at Minako worriedly.

"Don't worry, I'm alright" Minako answered with soft but somewhat sad smile.

'I need to resolve my will soon'


March 12, Inaba Central Road

08: 25

(YU POV)

The white-haired teen leisurely walked back to his home happily, he buy ingredients for dinner at general store which owned by a kind lady who gave her some free things because he shop more than 5000 yen.

'Tonight, I think I should just make...'

The scenery of urban rural city changed ruined dead town, the fresh air changed into stench of dead, The bright sky changed into blood red with ominous black sun as decoration.

All happened in an instant, just as fast your eyes can blink. The sensation is like you just blasted into another world.

Then without any delay, four light pillars descended from red sky. From each pillars appears a single figure which their appearances exact copy of each other only in different color.

Red, Blue, Green, Purple. Each individual let out menacing aura as their voices resounding all over ghost town as their eyes bore through the Wild Card user's soul.

"WE ARE JUPITER, HERE TO TEST YOUR WORTH!"


A/N: I'm on fire! With new laptop comes new energy, I will write for the time I hold back.
