YAY! The 6th chapter is here. This took me forever. I had to re-watch some of the cut scenes in the game to get most of the dialogue 'cause I forgot most of it ^^' Well let's get started!

EDITED VERSION!

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

So let the stories begin!

~April 18, 2009, Saturday, Early Morning~

Minato and Minako have been released from the hospital late last night around 11:30. To which Mitsuru-sempai and Akihiko-sempai picked them up. They casually walked to school only to be greeted by Yukari.

"Mornin'. You seem to be doin' pretty well."

"Somewhat..." Minato said blankly.

"I'm alright," Minako added.

Yukari was relieved. "That's good. Hey sorry to hit you with this first thing in the morning... but Ikutsuki-san wants to talk to you today. Come to the 4th floor of the dorm after school, okay? Don't forget." The two are fine, so doesn't that matter the most... whatever. So they walked together to class. As they entered I greeted them happily.

~Morning~

Mr. Ono is like, our history teacher for the year who wears that samurai helmet. Putting it in simpler terms, he is obsessed with the Sengoku Era. "So, the Stone Age can be summarized as mankind's struggle against the mammoths. Aaaand that's enough about the Stone Age. I'm sick of it. I'd rather talk about the Sengoku era! Japanese history's not that exciting until then. Though I'm paid to do this, so I've gotta... It's tough being an adult. Okay, can anyone answer a question about the Stone Age? Hmm... Junpei, how about you? The Stone Age is divided into the Paleolithic and the Neolithic eras. What's the difference between them?" Mr. Ono called on Junpei who wasn't listening again.

"Uhh... How am I supposed to know about something way back then?" Junpei muttered. "Tell me Minato, Minako! What's the answer?" He then panicked.

"How the tools were made," they said quickly to not get in trouble. Then everyone whispered a quiet ohs'

"Correct. Paleolithic tools were chipped stone, while Neolithic tools were ground stone. Though, either way, they used stone tools. Ugh... I wanna get to the age of katanas. Everything else is so dull..."

"Hey...! I answered right, and I don't get credit?" Junpei unsatisfied of no reward. "Tch... Oh well. Thanks you guys."

"Minato and Minako told Junpei the answer. They are really smart!" A classmate next to me whispered.

~After School~

Well I do have Karate Club, so I'll be at the dorm a little late. But still... all in all I'll make it any way... I hope. The twins already left so I'm left here.

~Evening~

Just my luck of course I made it. I knew I shouldn't be worrying about that... ehe. Everyone sat in the fourth floor command room. Minato, Minako, and Yukari are on the couch. Akihiko-sempai is on the single seats, so I had to sit next to him. Mitsuru-sempai is standing next to the chairman.

"Ah, there you are. I'm glad that you made it. The reason I asked you all here is because I needed to talk to you about the two twins here," the Chairman said looking at the duo sitting on the couch. "Oh, before that, I believe I mentioned them earlier, but this is Akihiko and Naomi." He greeted us

"Hey. How ya doin'?" The senior casually greeted.

"You guys alright?" I asked still a bit concerned.

All they did was nod. I know they must be tired since they came from the hospital, then school. They shouldn't over exert themselves since they got out. I'll keep an eye on them for a little bit.

"Okay, let me start off by asking you this... Would you believe me if I said a day consists of more than 24 hours?" The Chairman began.

"Excuse us..." the twins said with a puzzled look on their face.

I wasn't surprise of their reactions. Even it caught me off guard the first time I came to join this specialized group. Even though I kind of had been noticing it I thought its part of the 24 hour thing when it's midnight and goes all the way to one in the morning. But I guess not.

"Do you remember the night you came here?" Mitsuru-sempai added. "You had to have notice the signs... The streetlights went out... Nothing was working... There were coffins everywhere... Didn't it feel like you were in a different time...? That's the Dark Hour- a time period hidden between one day and the next." Mitsuru-sempai always has to make it simple to first point out the obvious.

"Hidden?" They asked.

"I guess it's more like something people aren't aware of. But, the Dark Hour does exist. It occurs each night at midnight. It'll happen tonight, and every night to come." The Chairman added.

"Normal people don't realize it, since they're all sleeping inside their coffins. But, that's not what makes the Dark Hour so interesting... You saw those creatures. We call them "shadows". They only appear during the Dark Hour, and attack anyone not in a coffin. It's our job to defeat them... Sounds exciting, huh?" he said feeling the rush of knocking the shadows down one by one, he smirked.

"Akihiko! Why are you always like that? You just got hurt the other day!" Mitsuru exclaimed anger in her voice of how Akihiko was acting. Akihiko got an irk mark but them anime sweat dropped.

"Now, now he does his job well," Ikutsuki panicked try to calm the two down. "To make a long story short we are the Specialized Extracurricular Execution Squad. SEES for short. On paper we're classified as a school club. But, in reality, this group is dedicated to defeating the Shadows." the brown haired Chairman explained about the group. "Mitsuru is the leader. I'm the club advisor"

"A Shadow feeds on the mind of its prey: the victim becomes a living corpse. They are the cause of the Apathy Syndrome on the news, if not all of them," I added. (A/N: this was supposed to be Mitsuru's line, but I had to make my OC say something in this conference, so I had to type this in as if my OC is actually in the story. So back to the story).

"How do you fight them?" They asked in unison.

"Although rare, there are those who can function during the Dark Hour. Some may even awaken to a power that enables them to fight the Shadows. That's "Persona"- the power you used the other night. The Shadows can only be defeated by Persona-users, which means, it's all up to you guys." The Chairman explained a little more.

"I see," the nod their heads soaking in the information like a sponge.

"Glad you guys are quick to understand," I commented.

"What he's trying to say is, we want you to join us," Mitsuru said opening a brief case with two evokers and armbands. "We've prepared an Evoker for you. We'd like you to lend us your strength."

They looked like they were contemplating on the decision. Yeah I got to admit I was nervous. I really do hope they join. I just can't stand this long tension in the air. Please, please, please, plllleeeaaase join... this anxiety is killing me to my last breath.

"Alright," they both said.

"Really, I was afraid you guys would say no," Yukari said relieved. "Welcome aboard!"

I smiled lightly at their choice. But, what is their reason for saying yes. For me, well, I only joined to get rid of this hidden hour, but I even like this hour. I don't want the shadows to hurt anyone though. I will find my reasons soon enough.

"Thank you so much. I'm really glad." The chairman looked relieved also. "Oh, I almost forgot... About you room assignment... Why don't you just stay here, in your current room? I don't know what the holdup is, but I guess it worked out in the end." He chuckled.

Everyone anime sweat dropped again and Yukari added, "Holdup? But, wasn't that-" She then paused and said never mind. (A/N: okay this is where the first Social Link is. The Fool Arcana which is the number 0. This is only for the SEES Members all together). Thou shalt have our blessing when thou choosest to create a Persona of the Fool Arcana... The tiny voice ringed in the heads of Minato, Minako and Me.

Putting all that had happened aside I said, "I'm glad you guys join." I cheerfully smiled, a smile that no one ever seen me do since I usually stay with a straight face then the confusing emotions I go through once in a while.

"My, someone's really happy," Mitsuru pointed out.

"It's best for to be with an old friends," I muttered looking away, almost forgetting that the seniors were here.

"Old friends? Do you guys know each other before?" Akihiko asked.

"Uh, yeah. We've known each other for ten years, but sometimes it felt that we've have forgotten each other since they move a lot," my smile faltered at the long isolation I put up with for those years.

It hurts. So emotionally. The feeling of someone close has to fly right out the window. You can't feel the pain, but you just know it's there. I do have to admit though, human emotions are confusing. Sighing, I decided to tell them I would go to bed a bit early today. Biding my farewell, the Arisato Twins said at least a few words to me, "We're sorry Kari-chan and good night." Nodding I went downstairs to my room and hit the hay. The thing I didn't notice is a little visit from a certain kid during this time: the Dark Hour.

~Dark Hour Arisatos' Rooms~

"Hi, how are you?" The boy that awoken the two twins called calmly as he sat on the foot of their bed he then chuckled.

"And you are...?" They asked the little boy.

"I'm afraid we've met before. Soon, the end will come. I remembered, so I thought I should tell you." The mysterious boy said as he tilted his head slightly.

"The end?"

"Then end of everything... But to be honest, I don't really know what it is." The boy looked away. He then got up from the bed. "Oh, looks like you've awakened to your power... and an unusual power it is. A power that takes many forms yet is bounded by none... It may prove to be you salvation, depending on where you end up." Pharos had teleported to the end of the bed, surprising the two teens. "Do you remember when we first met? I expect you to honor your commitment. I'll be watching you, even if you forget about me... Okay then, see you later. I got one more person I have to see," He then disappeared in thin air again.

~Naomi's Room (A/N: or my room whatever you want to call it)~

"Hi," the little boy greeted smiling at me.

"Yes Pharos," I rubbed my eyes as he chuckled.

"I met the other two. They are quite interesting."

"Really," I looked at him skeptically.

"Yes, oh, before I forget, the end will come. But I don't know what it is," he gazed off to the edge of my bed.

"Whatever it is I'm sure we'll stop it," rolling my eyes.

"Well, okay then, good night," he then disappeared.

"He's still a weird kid," I muttered with fatigue growing. With that aside I fell asleep again.
