"So you wake up" Said by the mature woman
"Izanami" The young man recognized the woman as he called her name
"So do you remember what happened?" Izanami ask
"Remember what?" The man asked confusion
"I see I think it's for the better for you to not know Yu Narukami" Izanami said as he is very confuse in this situation
"So why I am here?" Yu ask

As Izanagi disappear Leaving Yu and Izanami alone
"As I'm saying I'm helping you from a favor from what you did" Izanami Told him
"As well you traversing in times and space of the collected unconscious And telling you goodbye as The velvet room is calling you right now" Izanami's Voice is fading away
Yu Didn't react fast enough to ask her some questionas he surrounding it's fading away.
Velvet Room
(BGM: Aria of the soul)
"Welcome to the Velvet Room A place Between dreams and reality mind and matter only those who signed the contract can enter this place my name is Igor I'm delighted to make an acquaintance" A hunchback old looking man with a very long nose name Igor welcome Yu
As his Question left unanswered from his previous talk with Izanami
"Igor What's going on?" Yu ask Igor
"To answer that my dear guest you are now trapped in the past as you can guess you don't remember what happened before meeting Izanami Ask I want to tell you I afraid I'm not allowed to say it this will make your journey even harder then it ever be so do please forgive me" Igor Apologize
As Yu Look around he see that the velvet room is very Different from the last time he saw it as he saw a two Unique seat To his side And the whole room is a massive elevator
"Igor What do you mean about new journey and what actually happening right now!?" Yu Is very confuse up the sudden turn of events and not even remembering what happened before this
"You see as I told you are stuck in the past in the time when another guest taking his own journey but this time the journey is more dangerous and different from it's natural course and a very powerful and deadly enemy arrived and but that's not all and another guest stuck with your same circumstance Also in here with the same reason as you And right Now you are in the train taking you to the journey will take place" As Igor explain
I saw his attendant it's different from the last time I saw and she look a small With long platinum silver hair Wearing a butterfly headband having their signature glowing yellow eyes and carrying a large leather book
"Oh yes I forgot to introduce to you my new attendant her name is lavenza and the sister of Margaret and the twin Theodore and Elizabeth" Igor introduce her to Yu
As she bow her Head To him "greetings my sister guest My name is lavenza I heard a lot from my sister Margaret about you and you being a manwho-" lavenza Is interrupted
"OK I think you should stop finishing what you gonna say I still having nightmares from Nanako Saying those words Innocently in front of me and that claim is not true Margaret just like teasing me with that word With her sadistic tendency" Yu stop Lavenza from Further embarrassment
As Igor interrupted the two "I'm sorry my dear guest but time is marching on in your world as Izanami Already give you the information you need and next time you get here your attendant Margaret will be here And sorry for sudden arrangement I Didn't expect such event will happen or nobody even know it happened What remember this when you wake up the information you need it's in the bag right then till we meet again but this time in your own accord" Said By Igor
As Igor said his goodbye as everything fade into nothingness Yu Wake up
Iwatodai Train station
As Yu Wake up he saw himself inside the train and besides him a bag with documents about the dorm he will staying
[I wonder what place I will stay] Yu thought
He feel the train stop And hear the announcement of the place Iwatodai A place he traveled in the school field trip And he also remembered some embarrassing Memories as well
[So Iwatodai I still remember the king game and their crazy shenanigans that teddie Pull off I wonder what happened to them I miss them and they probably miss me too] Yu Wonder in his mind
As he leave the train he saw a young man about the same age as him Having a noticeable blue hair That blocking one of his eyes then next behind him a frizzy hair kid with glasses and in his bag he noticed a ear of a cat And it seems that he was talking to the cat
[Now that I think about it why did not I consider having my own cat when my partner always joke around me for liking cat too And pretty much around the town are following me] Yu thought
But suddenly the moon give a eerie green light and the people around him where replaced my a large coffins And some puddle of blood Everywhere It gave him a sense of dread
"What the heck just happened!?" the frizzy haired boy ask in confusion
"Hey you two Are you OK as everything seems weird And everyone turned coffins and besides us" Yu ask the two
The frizzy hair man seems to be wary about Yu as he goes Closer to him while the blue haired man Seems to not care about what's going on
" who are you?" the frizzy haired boy ask him
"My apology for suddenly talking to you my name is Yu Narukami a new Transfer student" Yu said to the boy
[Seeing that Igor brought this document I feel that I will go back and redo my Junior high school So it's not really a lie] Yu Thought to himself
"I see" the frizzy haired boy is still wary but relax I bit as he think about the Situation but the other guy is ignoring them and start to walk out
As the two see Him leaving they subconsciously follow him
"Say what's your name?" Yu ask
"Ren Amamiya" the frizzzy haired boy named Ren reply
"What about your cat?" Yu ask
"I'm not a Cat!!!" the (not) cat just talk and Surprised Yu
"It can talk!?" Yu ask in a shocking look in his face
But not only him who is shock even Ren is surprise that he can understand him
"This is so weird thing to ask but are you a persona user?" Ren ask
Hearing those words Something in his mind suddenly click as he remember what eager told him about as another guest with the same circumstance appeared in this time
"Yes and I assume that you are the person that Igor talk about before I wake up in this place" said by Yu
Hearing his response and hearing igor's name he realized that the person in front of him is a fellow guest of velvet room and a possible wild card just like him
"So it's safe to assume that you are brought here without knowing how and why just like me" Ren Ask for confirmation
And Yu nod his head to this information
"So what is his or her name?" Yu ask Ren
"Huh!?" Ren is confuse but he realize what he meant
"what's with the her I'm a man at least I think" the Cat reply as he is mad about the cat subject
"So what is your name?" Yu ask him
"My name is Morgana and I'm a Phantom thief" Morgana said proudly but he realize his mistake
"Phantom thief?" Yu tilted his head
[Morgana your as bad as Ryuji in hiding our identity] Ren as he facepalm in his mind that he revealed their secret even in this time where they still not exist as a thief
[Phantom thief those name sounds familiar to me as if I heard it before] Yu Think about it but in the end he shrug it off as is not important right now
[Not only I became useless I even expose the secret that Ryuji Miraculously kept it secret even in the times he barely expose it but right now I'm worse than him if they found out about this how can I face lady Anne with shame] Morgana is thinking about his mistake while his body freeze in shock
But they stop as they can see a building that very different from others the fact that that place have a working light means something is special about that place but suddenly they realize that the building is identical to the picture that they will stay in
"I think we should hold that conversation for next time as the place I will stay and knowing that they(Velvet Room Residence) arrange this for us meaning the journey will start here but I'm just guessing but knowing them they will throw us to the center of the problem" Yu stated as Ren agree in silence
As they continue to walk the blue haired boy is going to that place as well as they go in they are greeted by a young boy in a prison stripe outfit
"You're late I've been waiting for you for a long time " Said by the mysterious boy

Note.
I thank you for giving me a tip as this is actually my first time (technically second) doing this and why do I care to those guys if they don't want to admit the fact that how the persona world works and not revolving around Metaverse
As you can see this is a introduction for Yu Narukami and the next chapter is the final introduction for Makoto Yuki
And if your asking why is Ren introduction is short is very simple as many of you already know about him in the first place and for Yu I just give a tidbits about him and a little about his journey so one more chapter before the real story start so I hope you like it
