Persona Death in Star Night

Chapter 1

As the light flickers through the glass all throughout the train all Makoto Yuki can think about is how little sleep he seems to have been getting lately. For some reason or another Makoto has been feeling a certain pit in his stomach almost like a craving. He tends to be able to drive off these thoughts and desires but for some reason they have been getting a little worse. He tends to write it off as his nerves about being back here again. Makato continues to switch songs on his phone to help his nerves. As Makoto's nerves start to calm down his nose starts to perk up and he realizes he's able to smell the ocean from the train cart. Right as he's looking out the window he can still appreciate how it looks. As he is looking out the window he notices a bright velvet blue butterfly fly from within the train cart and thinks to himself.

How did you get in here, are you also alone just like me.

Makoto can't seem to wonder about this butterfly." I don't think I have ever seen a butterfly as blue as you before." he mumbles to himself. As he watches the odd looking butterfly his body seems to finally give in and his whole entire body goes limp right before he closes his eyes he thinks to himself.

New school and new dorm I wonder if they will run away from me like the rest did all I really hope for is a more peaceful school year

After all this was only wishful thinking for him since in every other school and foster home problems have occurred. Once there was this time a natural storm came in and destroyed everything but his belongings, another time he was in a car accident and only he came out unscathed, once part of the school got caught on fire and only his book bag survived. Now he's attending Gekkoukan High. The last place that will take him. As he shakes his head to stop thinking about the past so he can finally drift asleep.

"Hello welcome to the velvet room my dear young man"

Makoto opens his eyes to see him sitting in a chair in what seems like a giant elevator. As he's looking around notices an old man with an oddly large nose sitting In front of a desk with a girl who he assumes is around his age standing in the corner. As he is looking around he starts to notice the odd amount of blue that's in this one room, and as he is looking up at the giant clock that is looming over them." Hello, welcome to the velvet room" the old man repeats himself getting Makoto's attention." My name is Igor and I'm the master of this room." What an odd name Makoto thinks to himself. "This is Elizabeth, she's also a resident such as myself."

"I'm pleased to meet you." The girl spoke in a very formal manner.

"What am I doing here" Makoto quickly asks the oddly nosed man

"This place exists between dream and reality, mind and matter," Igor explains. Makoto's eyes twitched in slight irritation as he was given a vague answer from the old man." Don't be worried your answers will be answered soon as our time is running up here. Hold on to this." A dark blue key appears in front of Makoto and as he takes a hold of it the old man speaks again. "It's been ages since we have had someone here till we meet again and it might be shorter than you think." Igor says as he taps his fingers.

Makoto awakens at the sudden jerk of the train stopping at the station and his headphones fall to the ground from the sudden halt.

"Welcome to Iwatodai," the overhead speakers shouted out.

As Makoto is leaving the station all he can think about is how odd that dream was. He remembers that he took a key and starts to shuffle in his pocket to check and see if he had it, and oddly enough yep he had. To was a dark blue key that felt like it was humming.

This is very odd how is this in my pocket, wasn't that dream. Makoto shivers at the thought." Was it a dream" he mumbled to himself, questioning what was real at the moment. As he leaves the station his music comes to an abrupt end. "Shit what is it now I just checked a few moments ago you were at 80%." He sighs at the entrance of the station in defeat. As he thinks to himself that luck is not on his side tonight his that pitiful feeling in the stomach comes back and it's worse than it has ever been before." Dammit not now" Makoto shouts to himself in slight pain as his stomach cramps yet again. As the pain slowly goes down he finally looks around his setting and his eyes widen in disbelief.

"What the fuck is going on around here?" Makoto questions himself. What he's looking at he can't believe it's real, all the streets and roads are covered in coffins." Who put these here?" Makoto asks in disbelief even though there is no one round. As he looks up he realizes the moon seems to be limiting an oddly green hue of color around the entire city. He also noticed that all the streetlights are out. All he can think to himself right now is.

I need to quickly get to the dorm. I feel like if I stay here any longer some might happen. Everything feels off.

As Makoto is standing in front of the dorm he sighs to himself he finally made still in disbelief of what he saw. Now that he was at the door that pit in his stomach was only getting worse." I need to lay down as soon as I can." As soon as Makoto walked in he noticed all the lights here off and then looked over to see the counter and saw, someone was already waiting for him.

"You're late, I've been waiting a long time for you." What seems like a child with Velvet blue eyes and a weird black and white striped shirt walks up to him." Now if you want to continue you must sign this." He points to a folder with what seems like a contract.

"What's this for, why do you need me to sign this?" Makoto abruptly asks as he takes off his headphones.

"Just the usual stuff." He said, Now he picks it up and holds it in front of Makoto. "All it is asking is that you will take full responsibility for your actions." He now hands Makoto a pen and repeats. "Just the usual stuff." Makoto picks up the pen and signs it with his full name Makoto Yuki.

"There done, anything else?" Makoto asks with slight irritation to his tone to the boy.

The boy ignores his question and finally says. "Time delivers us all to the same end, you cant plug your ears or cover your eyes, And so it begins." The boys disappear. Makoto stood there in disbelief wondering who this kid was and what was going on tonight as he's thinking to himself the pit in his stomach aggravates again shooting another sharp cramp.

Can tonight get weirder? What is happening? Are the only thoughts he can think at the moment as he is interrupted.

"WHOS THERE!?" A girl yells. Makoto snaps his head as he was startled by the loud noise. to see a girl who's most definitely his age who is wearing a red shirt with a red bowtie, she's also wearing a black skirt and leggings that seems to tie it with an armband on her left arm. Then he notices on her right thigh there he couldn't believe a gun.

Makoto thinks to himself in disbelief. What is she gonna do? Shoot me. As the girl struggles on taking out the gun they both hear some else yell.

"Takeba Wait!" Another girl yells from further down the hall.

As she yells at the girl who has her hand on the gun holster, Makoto assumes that girl is Takebe. All the light flickers in and Makoto's music seems to be playing again. Takebe sighs in relief and smiles at the other girl. The other girl who he can now clearly see was someone who was wearing everything the exact same as the other girl but all he could think about was how beautiful she looked with her stunning red hair which Makoto found very attractive.

"I didn't think you'd arrive this late." She spoke in a very polite manner

"I'm s-sorry about that train got here a little late" He stutters .Makoto lied he didn't think they would believe him what he saw when he got here so he kept it to himself.

"My name is Mitsuru Kirijo. I'm One of the students who live in this dorm."

"...Who's he?" The other girl asks abruptly.

"He's a transfer student. It was a last minute decision to assign him here." Makoto nods his head in confirmation." He'll eventually be moved to a room in the boys dorm."

"... IS it really ok for him to be here?" The brunette asks. Makoto wondered what would be so wrong with him staying here, but he shrugged off the question because it didn't really personally affect him.

Mitsuru Smiles which makes Makoto's heart nearly burst out. "I guess we'll see. This is Yukari Tekeba. She'll be a junior this spring just like you."

"Hey." Yukari greets. Makoto would have asked about the gun but he wasn't so sure that conversation would go down the way he would like. Makoto bows.

"Nice to meet you Yukari" He says formally

"No need to be so formal." she muttered. Makoto nodded his head and stood back up straight.

"Your room is on the second floor, at the end of the hallway. Your thing should already be there." Mitsuru spoke. Makoto is still eyeing her and thinking about how beautiful she really looks. He hopes to see if he can get to know her better.

"Oh…I'll show you the way. Follow me." Yukari stated as she was already heading to the stairs.

As they stood right outside his door Yukari spoke up. In the uncomfortable quiet situation.

"Pretty easy to remember, huh?...Since it's right at the end of the hall." she tried speaking in confidence. "Oh yeah, make sure you don't lose your key, or you'll never hear the end of it from senpai. So any questions?"

"Does that kid also live here?" Makoto bluntly asks. When he said it Yukari tilted her head to the side as she gave him a confused look.

"Who…are you trying to pull a prank on me" she asks in slight irritation.

"N-N-No" He stutters.

"Ok good. By the way, on your way here from the station everything was ok." Makoto was surprised by her question.

What did she mean by that? He thought to himself. Did she also see all that word stuff? There's no way I better keep quiet on this one or she'll be weary of me.

"Yep everything was good" Makoto forces a smile unsure if it will work.

"It seems like you're alright. I Bet you have other questions but save them for later it's quite late." Makoto totally forgot he checked his phone and it was already almost 2am.

"Good night." Yukari said as she walked off, probably to her own room to sleep.

As Makoto got into bed he could stop thinking about what happened. The odd coffins that were everywhere, the weird green moon, the child, the weird old man ,and the blue key. But he also couldn't stop thinking about the redhead girl Mitsuru. He didn't know why but it was like he was enacted by her but he didn't seem to care, But as he starts to drift asleep he had a dream he wish he hadn't one about the past about this same town and same bridge as from before the day his entire family died and the day he saw death it self.
