OK here's first chapter. Hope you enjoy it and this is the first I ever updated three times, except once when I had an account on quizilla. Guess what I am also posting this on quizilla so if things go wrong I will post it there in case. Again this is edited version again.

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN PERSONA 3/FES/PORTABLE IN ANY SHAPE OR SIZE THEY BELONG TO ATLUS. THE ONLY THING I OWN IS MY OC NOAMI AND A GAME OF P3P.

So let the stories begin!

Time never waits.

It delivers us all equally to the same end.

However limited it may be...

You will be given one year;

Go forth without falter,

With your heart as your guide...

A blue butterfly sends a telepathic message

~April 6, 2009, Monday, Late Evening to Dark Hour~

Two late teenage students sat in the train, their headphones clipped to their ears to block out the sound. But it is really quite seeing there were a few people in there. The cart they were sitting in. Looking out the window it they thought they heard some kind of voice that suddenly floated by when they passed by the tunnel. Either they were hallucinating or just tired that they were hearing things. DING!

"Due to a malfunction in the switching system, today's rail schedule has been greatly altered. We apologize to any customers who are in a hurry. The next stop is Iwatodai," a male conductor spoke through the speakers as he drove the train to its destination.

As the train stopped everyone got off running to their destination either late for a meeting or trying to get home. Then another announcement rang rang out, "Iwatodai. This is the final train bound to Tatsumi Port Island. Please take care to board before our departure." After the announcement was done other people were boarding as well. The two teens checked the time on their MP3 reading 11:59:50 pm.

~Iwatodai Dorms Naomi's Room~

I idly sat in my room, next to Mitsuru Kirijo's room, in the co-ed dorm, on the third floor, waiting for the Dark Hour. It's a time hidden between one day and the next. Yukari and Mitsuru-sempai were in the command room patrolling. Akihiko-sempai and I were to be sent out to look for someone. There are two to be exact. I had my arm band initialize of S.E.E.S. on my left upper arm. My evoker, hosted in its strap, that hangs on my right thigh, which is seemingly wrapped in bandage 'cause of an incident that happened ten years ago which left a huge scar, also my left shin.

Looking at my alarm clock, which read: 11:59:50, I need to get ready. Just ten more seconds. So I decided to leave my headquarters and wait for Akihiko-sempai.

5... Akihiko-sempai greeted me in the lounge looking so excited.

4... I smiled weakly at him to show I was ready.

3... we stared at the lounges' wooden double door.

2... taking a deep breath I looked out the window.

1... everything that is electronically powered were shut down. The sky turned to an eerie green hue. Blood trickled down corners everywhere, and anything that is water was replaced with the crimson liquid. The moon turned to a sickly yellow. That was when both of us headed out.

~Iwatodai Station~

As the time ticked away to the Dark Hour the two figures stand in this hidden hour without transmogrifying to coffins. Their red and silver headphones hung lose over their shoulders; they carry sliver and brown bags as they strolled out of the station. Only people who have the potential can function during this hour. They both looked at each other to their surprise that everything changed. The blue hair teen was calm with his expressionless face. But the brunette wasn't at ease at all. She wasn't used to the hour like the male has. They been noticing the hour since they were seven, but she has to stay strong for her brother's sake. But from time to time she was getting used to it.

Quickly strolling down the coffin littered streets with a map in hand, they were sure nothing was going to jump them. But they were cautious since the usual bustling, safe, island of Iwatodai/Tatsumi Port Island has a different aura ever since they step foot on this sort of small, sort of big foundation.

Walking along to their destination they haven't spotted a single life form. They didn't know that there was three civilian walking around this late at night. A male brute in a maroon pea coat, dark brown beanie hat, black slackers pants, black shoes, dirt brown hair that's shoulder length long with his bangs curtaining the bridge of his nose, and brown to gray eyes was staring at them. He was hidden between couple buildings so no one could see him.

"Tch," was all he said and walked away. "Not my business."

~Iwatodai Station~

"Uh do you see them," Akihiko asked looking around for the two transfer students.

"Sadly, no," come my reply as I came back from the search.

"Damn it. It's this late and we can't find them," he said being pissed off at the Dark Hour thinking they must have transmogrified to coffins.

"Come on, there must be a chance they made it to the dorm," I said nonchalantly starting off on my own as Akihiko followed suit.

~Iwatodai Dorm, Lounge~

Having that said the two actually arrived at the dorm. But they didn't know that this place was fully operating than anywhere else. The lounge has a TV, a dining area in the back, the reception desk right by the door, and stairs in the back... whatever. But they didn't know someone was actually waiting for them... a kid.

"You two are late," said the jet black hair kid, in black and white pajamas, and cerulean eyes. "I've been waiting for a long time for you."

'Talk about major creepy, but isn't he supposed to be in bed? It's late for a kid to stay up this late at night' the brunette thought.

"If you want to continue please sign your names here on this contract," he continues as he points to a contract. It's bounded with a red cover and a feathered ink well next to it. "Don't worry all it says you will take full responsibility for the choices you make."

Both looked at the contract and read. As the creepy boy stated point blank, the contract states that said 'thou has chosen thy own fate and take responsibility.' Perfect. Just perfect. No loop holes at all. Maybe it's just the dorms idea the blue hair thought. So they wrote their names with the feather like pen-

'Minato Arisato, Minako Arisato' in a more fancy like that connects both their names together in cursive.

"There is no escaping time. You can't plug your ears or cover your eyes," the boy said as everything turned dark, covering his eye, he then flipped the contract on its side and it magically disappeared. "They all bring us to the same end. So, it begins," he backed up disappearing like the contract.

Major creep phase now, Minako thought staring where the kid was. But really what was all that about?

"Who's there?" A frantic voice appeared that came from a tan haired colored girl, with a heart choker, in a pink sweater, and black skirt. "How did you... wait... don't tell me?" Gasping slightly her hand hovered something strapped to her thigh. It gleam silver even in the dark.

"Takeba, wait," another voice filtered the room as the light came on, with another female that has red hair, a stripped white blouse, long black skirt that reached her shin, and the same gun strapped to her waist.

The pink-sweater girl looked relieved at the senior who approach her oh, so calmly when the lights flickered back on. The lights are back on, Minato and Minako thought.

"I didn't expect for you two to come this late," said the red-head. "I'm Mitsuru Kirijo, I'm one of the students who live in this dorm."

"Who are they?" The tan haired girl asked if it's a good idea.

"They are the new transfer students. It was a last minute to sign them here," Mitusru answered.

"Is it OK for them to be here?" She questioned their existence, having a doubtful aura around her.

"I guess, we'll see. This is Yukari Takeba. She will be a junior just like you two," the known sempai motioned the junior to introduce herself.

"Um... hey,"

"Hey, I'm Minako Arisato," the brunette introduce cheerfully.

"Minato," was the entire blue hair male said.

"Oh, um nice to meet you two," still having the doubt aura around her.

Having the few seconds of quietness Minako decided to break it by asking what's with the gun. Mitsuru said its security reasons while Yukari said it's a hobby. They weren't sure about the 'it's not a real gun' thing, but shrug it off for the time being.

"It's getting late, Yukari will take you to your rooms," Mitsuru blankly stated walking away so suddenly.

"Well, follow me," Yukari motioned them up the stairs.

Climbing the first flight of stairs Yukari told Minako to wait by the small lounge on the second floor and lead Minato to his room that's all the way at the end of the hall.

"Well here's your room. Pretty easy to remember since it's the last one to the right. Oh here's your key. Don't lose it or you'll never hear the end of it. So any questions before I lead Minako to her room?" Yukari asked trying to sound cheerful.

The thought about the weird hour, the kid and the contract popped up in his head so he asked, "Does the kid live here to?"

"Kid? What kid? There's no kid. Come on, don't joke around. You're creeping me out," Yukari panicked placing a hand on her chest but calmed down for a bit. "By the way... have you seen anything strange while you guys are coming here?"

"What do you mean strange?" Minato asked raising an eyebrow.

"You know what I- never mind you're alright. You must be tired from your trip so good night," Yukari walked off but paused at the middle of the hall. "I'm sure you might have other questions but let's save them for later. And don't tell anyone what you saw alright. Good night again," and finally walked off.

After a few minutes of talking, Yukari then lead Minako to the third floor to her room. What a coincidence it's at the end of the hall also. She said the same thing to Minako and left for bed. After that little fiasco they hit the bed not bothering to change since the drowsiness and fatigue got to them to easily.
