Before you read this chapter. I would like you to thank Miss Hanamura for checking over this chapter and editing and correcting some of my mistakes. Thanks so much

Anyway I probably didn't expect to make a good persona story and I'm still unsure right now. But that all depends on a person's opinion on a story and what they favor.

Well anyway lets start chapter 4.

Chapter 4

Memories

The S.E.E.S. began to celebrate the defeat of the Magician Arcana, while the Fool, however, was staring at something that no one else could see. A clear-blue sphere was floating in front of him, and out of curiosity, the Fool touched the sphere and it was instantly absorbed into his hand, flashing familiar memories into his head, causing his brain to get fried and making it hard for him to even think. Rin noticed Kai acting like this and saw him about to fall down before he caught him.

"Hey, Kai, are you alright?" Rin asked the crystal-turquoise eyed boy, as he slowly drifted to sleep. The other members tried waking him up too.

"Akira, can you hear us?"

"Senpai!"

"Are you okay...?" All three of them except for Rin said. It was silent for a moment, but Kai began to mumble something.

"Pass me the steak... please." He said while he was asleep. The four of them looked at the Fool, rather dumbfounded by his response.

"Kai, same as always." Rin chuckled. He then picked Kai up on his back and turned towards the head of the Kirijo Group.

"Mitsuru. I'm going to take Kai back to the dorm as soon as the Light Hour ends. I was wondering if it's alright." She nodded her head and looked over to Daiki and Ken.

"Ito, I would like to speak with you at the dorm in Iwatodai during the evening. I'd like to talk about what happened today. Amada, I would like you to guide him back to the dorm as soon as school finishes up." They both nod their heads and headed back to the school and she turned to the unconscious Fool and Death.

"Hitoshi, I leave Akira in your hands for today." She then went back to the school behind both Ken and Daiki, leaving Rin to carry Kai back to the dorm as soon as the Light Hour ended.

'Holy crap! How many pounds did Kai gain throughout these years? He's as heavy as a hippo.'

Rin wondered why his childhood friend was heavy, even when his appearance was different than to his own weight. He decided to get a head start and headed to the monorail of the man-made island and was at the monorail by the time the Light Hour ended, just a few seconds after his arrival. He headed inside the transporter, back to the main island and towards the dorm. Rin had carried Kai all the way on his back; what's worse is that he had to carry him upstairs.

'Why the hell does this dorm even have stairs this high?!' Rin sighed and slowly stepped up the stairs, holding the rather heavy Fool on his back, careful not to drop him on the stairs. Just when he was about to reach the top, he slipped, fell down, and flipped over, falling down the stairs along with Kai.

"Ow! Fuck! This! Hurts!" He said, as he fell down to the bottom and landed face first while Kai landed on him in the most awkward position, yet to be seen.

"This just looks wrong." Rin said, his face still planted on the ground, as the Fool was still sound asleep on top of him and seemed to be unaware of the pain.

Rin had decided to just place him on the couch and put a blanket on him, as Kai was still soundly asleep. 'Man he's one heavy sleeper.' Rin thought and headed out of the dorm to pick up his bags back at the school. Although Kai was asleep, his bond with S.E.E.S was a bit closer than before.

*Crash!*

Rank 2 Fool Social Link!

The Fool simply twists and turns around on the couch, hearing the sound of glass shattering ringing through his head, as he continued dreaming of what he saw earlier back in the Light Hour that had been flashing in his head.

"Halt! Who dare steps into the kingdom of Tara?" The guard was talking to a young man with brownish hair that seemed short, but still long in the back and crystal-turquoise eyes who appeared in front of him and greeted him.

"Greetings, I came to offer my service to King Nuadha of Tuatha De Danann." The guard keeper only laughed at the boys claim of serving their King.

"Oh, really? What skills do you have to offer to our King?" The guard asked the young man.

"I offer my skills as a wright, a smith, a champion, a swordsman, a harpist, a hero, a poet, a historian, a sorcerer, and a craftsman." The brown haired man said to the guard and he simply scoffed.

"We already have people like them. If you don't have anything else to offer, then get lost." The young man simply smiled.

"I'm not offering my skills for one thing. I'm offering all of the above." The guard seemed a bit surprised before changing back into his regular expression.

"Is that so... Fine then, I'll ask them to give you an audience with our King. What's your name by the way?" The crystal-eyed man smiled before responding back to the guard.

"My name is..." The image soon got blurry and began to fade away.

Evening

Dorm

Kai began to open his eyes from his long rest and looked around to see where he was. "Oh you're awake... It's good to see you again." The voice of a female was heard. He began to look for the voice and turned behind him and saw a woman about his age, wearing a raven-feathered necklace and a black sweater with grey jeans. She also wore a black beret on her head and had jet-black hair that went down to her waist, as well as sharp grey eyes that looked both menacing and trustworthy at the same time. The woman then smiled at Kai and he tilted his head.

"Who are you...?" He asked the young woman.

"My name is Morrigan... I see you haven't changed a bit. It's just like the old days, Lugh." The Fool tilted his head again at the name she mentioned.

"Who's Lugh...?" She simply chuckled and approached Kai.

"I see you haven't recovered all your memories, yet. But you will in due time."

"What do you mean?" He asked with a dumbfounded look.

"That little sphere you touched earlier before was a fragment of your memory. What you just saw was a memory of your distant past, Lugh. So far, you have collected one-tenth of your memories. Once you collect the remaining nine not only will you regain all your past memories, but also your fate..."

"My past... and what do you mean by my fate?" The Fool asked.

"You shall understand soon... I wish I could tell you more, but I barely remember anything of the past. Only our names and that glimpse memory." She said with a saddened expression. "I'm afraid I must part with you for a due time. Farewell for now..." In almost an instant. Morrigan had disappeared, leaving only a black crow feather behind on the ground. Kai picked up the feather and looked at it, examining the details of the feather. It was very soft and had a very elegant shade of black. For some odd reason, Kai felt like he needed to keep the feather and decided to put it in his pocket. The sound of glass shattering was then heard after.

*Crash!*

Thou art I...And I am Thou

Thou hast established a new bond and

Thou shalt be blessed when thou chooseth to create a

Persona of the Judgement Arcana

*Rank 1 Judgement Social Link!*

The voice then disappeared and the sound of the front door opening could be heard. Kai then turned around and saw that Mitsuru and Rin had returned.

"Ah, Akira! You're awake." The young heiress said with relief.

"Good thing you're alright. I had to carry you all the way from school and it was exhausting." Rin said in a rather non-urgent voice. The Fool looked at the two of them and soon saw Ken and Daiki coming into the dorm, both of which noticed Kai's awakening.

"Oh, senpai! How are you feeling?" Ken asked Kai.

"I feel alright." Kai said, while rubbing his head. "Though I do feel a bit sore in my head." He added and Rin began to shake a bit. Kai then turned his attention to Daiki, who was listening to his music, and had caught the attention of the Fool.

"If it wasn't for you, I think all of us would be dead by now... Thank you, Daiki." The Fool showed his gratitude towards the Hanged Man and responded back with a smile too.

"I'm glad that I could help." The Hanged man replied. Mitsuru then asked Daiki to speak with her and agreed. They headed to the Command Room on the fourth floor, along with The Fool, Death, and Justice accompanying them. She then explained to him about S.E.E.S., the Dark and Light Hours and how they appeared, Shadows, and Persona. After that, she took a briefcase out of one of the cabinets from the closet and opened it in front of Daiki, where it showed a Evoker and an Armband that said S.E.E.S, like what everyone else was wearing.

"We would like you to join S.E.E.S., Ito." The heiress of the Kirijo group said to the green haired boy. There was a silence for a few moments in the room and the rest of the members had thought that he would refuse. But then he grabbed the gun and put the armband on his left arm before saying a few words:

"Count me in. I want to stop this and get my peace and quiet back." The calm boy replied with a hint of determination. The S.E.E.S. smiled and welcomed the new addition to their team.

"Welcome aboard..." Kai replied.

"Glad to have you on the team!" Rin said.

"Lets get along well, Daiki-senpai!" Ken responded.

"I hope we can get along well, Ito. Also, I'd like it if you moved into the dorms. That way, you may begin assisting us, as soon as possible." Mitsuru said to Daiki and he nodded. After a while, the Hanged man left for the boy's dorm near the school to pack up for the move to the Kirijo group dorms in a few days.

Meanwhile, a certain turquoise eyed boy decided to take a trip to the Velvet Room on the top roof of the dorm and went inside the door where he saw both Igor and Minato.

"Ah, welcome back..." Igor said, as Kai took his seat on one of the stools.

"I see you were able to defeat both Magicians. Well done." Minato said to the Fool in a congratulatory manner. "However don't think that its over just yet. You will face another ordeal in just a month, so I ask that you prepare for it." The bluenette then opened his book and three cards appeared showing the Fool, Death, and the Judgement.

"Also, I must praise you for establishing the Judgement Social Link. It was very difficult for me to obtain it, since it was the very last Social Link I ever made..." The cards then floated back into the book and he closed it. Igor once again spoke.

"During your last visit, I'm sure that Minato told you about our abilities to fuse Personas. Indeed we do have such a power. However, your powers of the Wild Card are a bit different than the previous ones. You won't be able to fuse Personas of that Arcana if you haven't established a Social Link with them and so far you have the ability to fuse Personas of the Fool, Death, and Judgement Arcana. Another thing is that we have the unique ability to transfer Personas of the same Arcana into another to make them even more powerful. This power is only exclusive to you."

Kai nodded his head and then thought of the two Personas he currently had: Partholón and Orpheus; both were from the Fool Arcana.

"Well, can you transfer Orpheus' powers into Partholón then?" Igor then shook his head.

"I'm afraid that I can't do that. You see, Orpheus is an unique Persona that cannot have it's power transfered, along with Partholón. However, they can still be fused to create an even more unique and powerful Persona, but you currently don't have the abillity to do that for now."

"I see..." Kai nodded his head and Minato smiled at him.

"Also, I would like to inform you that I'll be gone quite often and you will barely see me. Which is why I leave Minato into your care." The Fool nodded his head once again.

"Well, if you will excuse me, I have some important matters to attend to. I bid you farewell and I hope to see you again" Igor then disappeared from his chair and it was just Kai and Minato in the Velvet Room.

"I apologize on behalf of my Master's leave of absence. As of now, I shall be working with you." The Fool nodded at the Former Wild Card.

"Well, I don't mind if you don't. I think I'll take my leave." Kai stood up and left towards the door behind him.

"Farewell, I hope to see you again." The bluenette said, as Kai left the Velvet Room and headed to his bedroom and fell asleep.

Saturday, April 13 2013

Afternoon

The school days after that were mostly lectures for the S.E.E.S. members of class 2-F with Mr. Ekoda, an arrogant and selfish teacher that gave boring lectures about Literature of the Heian Period, which caused the whole class to tune out. Kai kept falling asleep, Rin just ignored Mr. Ekoda all together and stared out of the window, and Daiki listened to music. Mr. Ekoda noticed Kai sleeping in class, which made him very irritated.

"Akira! Pay attention in class!" He shouted over to Kai who woke up the moment he called him by his surname.

"*Yawn* I was paying attention." Kai said while rubbing his eyes.

"Is that so? Then answer this question! Who was the author that wrote Mangekyo?" Mr. Ekoda popped a random question that he didn't even taught to the class and Kai simply answered in a lazy tone.

"That's easy. Mangekyo was written by Fuyuhiko Yoshimura and just to point out you just popped that question randomly out of nowhere." The whole class was astonished by how Kai naturally answered the question without even trying, while Kai went back to sleep on his desk. Lectures continued on until lunchtime, where the three S.E.E.S. members decided to begin chattering among themselves.

"Hey Kai! Mitsuru said that today we have to come back to the dorm early, but we'll still have some time after school since we gotta help Daiki move in." The Fool nodded his head and decided to get lunch, along with The Death and Hanged Man with empty stomachs. The Fool had managed to get himself a melon bread, while the other two weren't so lucky and got nothing, but a plain roll.

"*Sigh* Man, we got the crappy plain roll. How is it that you managed to get yourself the last of the melon bread?" Rin asked his childhood friend, who was munching on the bread happily with a tint of red on his face.

"I was lucky, that's all..." He said before continuing to eat his lunch. Daiki just shrugged and ate the plain roll anyway, while Rin gave up and ate what he had. They all finished their lunch; Kai happily filled his stomach with a delicious melon bread, while the other two were dissatisfied about the plain roll and were still hungry.

"How about I treat you guys for a beef bowl after school? Even though we have to return early, we can still grab something to eat before we have to start retriving Daiki's stuff." Kai offered his two friends for a meal and they gladly accepted the offer for it after school. The bell rang, signaling the end of the lunch break and the last few periods of class before the end of the day. Before you know it, time flew by and the three teens headed for some beef bowls at the Strip Mall.

After School

The trio arrived at the restaurant with empty stomachs, as they took a seat and ordered some beef bowls. Rin and Daiki's orders arrived first: a medium-sized beef bowl and, as soon as it was on their table, they began chowing down since they were still hungry from lunch and in just a few minutes they finished it.

"Man that was good..." Rin replied full along with Daiki who gave a thumbs up. They looked over to Kai who was staring up at the ceiling waiting for his food.

"Thanks for the meal..." Daiki responded.

"It's my pleasure." He said, still staring up at the ceiling. Soon, Kai's order arrived. But it was not what they expected. There were at least five people carrying a huge bowl about 6x bigger than the regular beef bowls and were approaching the three of them, placing it onto the table.

"Here's your order! One Super-Deluxe Mega Beef Bowl!" They said to the Fool. Both Death and the Hanged Man gaped their mouths as they how big the beef bowl was. It was a huge bowl that took almost the whole table with stacks of meat on top of some egg.

"Look at the size of this thing!" Rin exclaimed, while Kai just took out a set of chopsticks and begin to chow it down.

*Munch* *Munch* Munch* The Fool continued eating down the deluxe bowl without even being full. As a few seconds passed by, chunks and chunks of meat were consumed by Kai and in just several minutes, the Huge Bowl was emptied out, while the other two still had their mouth gaped, seeing how much he could eat. The Fool then put his hands together and said, "Thank you for the meal," before paying for it and leaving. The two still had their mouth gaped back to the dorm.

'No way! Kai could actually eat the whole thing in just several minutes. How is that possible?!'

Rin thought.

'That guy is not human.;

Daiki thought, before Kai turned around and smiled.

"You know, I had fun. We should do this again sometime." The two boys were still a bit uneasy about the beef bowl thing, but simply nodded, seeing as they had fun too.

"Yeah, let's do some other stuff other than eating next time." Rin said, hoping not to experience the same thing today. Daiki simply nodded his head in agreement and the three of them began to laugh and enjoyed the time together they had. Then the sound of glass shattering ringed in Kai's head.*Crash*

Thou art I...And I am thou

Thou hast established a new bond and

Thou shalt be blessed when thou chooseth to create a

Persona of the Magician Arcana

'Rank 1 Magician Social Link!'

The voice of a new Social Link rang through Kai's head, as the three of them headed back to the dorm to move Daiki's stuff into his room.

For people who want to know the actual overview of each social link. I'll shall put a overview of each social link that Kai has currently obtained so far.

Fools Social Link

People involved in the Social link: S.E.E.S

The social link is like the same social link of Persona 3 and 4 where the Protagonist bond grows strong towards the team as they continue to stop the shadows.

Death Social Link

People involved in the Social link: Rin Hitoshi

The overview of this social link is the past of both Kai and Rin and how things changed over the four years they have been separated. It mostly involves the two talking about some stuff they did over the past four years while eating and hanging out in hagakure.

Judgement Social Link

People involved in the Social link: Morrigan

The Social link is mostly about the mysterious woman Morrigan talking to Kai about their past and how they know each other. Every time she disappears she always leave a crow feather behind that Kai just seems to keep. As if it was important.

Magician Social Link

People involved in the Social link: S.E.E.S member in Gekkoukan High

The Social Link is like the Fool Social Link but has a much different topic. It involves the S.E.E.S at the high school doing stuff outside the Dark and Light hour, where they just hang out and enjoy life together to get away from the fear of having to fight the shadows.

And thats all the current overview of the Social Link that's currently appeared in the story. Their will be more social link overview like this as the story continues.

That is all for now and I'll update as soon as possible. Until then, I'll see you later. :)
