bopdog111: Okay so what happened at the last chapter?
Ulrich362: Frisk, Chara, Asriel, and the others arrived in Iwatodai and Chara moved into a dorm along with the student council president Mitsuru Kirijo, and two other students, a third year named Akihiko Sanada and a second year named Yukari Takeba... both of whom were Chara's senpai. Oh... and Frisk reunited with his younger brother.
bopdog111: And now we have another new student into the dorm.
Ulrich362: True, a fourth girl named Minako Arisato who just arrived and signed a strange contract... though what's going to happen now?
bopdog111: Well let's find out here.
Ulrich362: Sounds good to me, enjoy the chapter.

(Cue Theme: This Mysterious Feeling)
"I didn't expect you to come so late." Mitsuru spoke as she walked beside Yukari.
After Ikutsuki quickly texted her about the new student, she hurriedly put on her attire, and went downstairs catching Yukari about to use her Evoker stopping her from injuring her by accident. Minako just stands in front of them after singing the contract, and seeing the boy.
"I must apologize another new student moved in earlier so it slipped our minds somewhat about yourself."
"Ah don't worry about it, it was just an early bird. As in early bird gets the worm?" Minako shrugged with a smile crackling a joke for some humor around to ease the dark tension.
"Oh no... not you too." Yukari groaned.
"Sorry." Minako smiled. "It's nice to meet you, I'm Minako Arisato."
"It's a pleasure Arisato, I'm Mitsuru Kirijo. As you can guess I'm one of the residents of this dorm, and this is Yukari Takeba." Mitsuru introduced.
"Oh, nice to meet you." Yukari nodded.
Minako nodded before then looking over towards Yukari specifically the gun she has looking over to Yukari. "So why do you have a gun? Do you even have a license to use that thing?" As guns are dangerous items, licenses are used to keep people from using them all over the place, and so Minako is worried if Yukari is able to safely use one.
"Huh, oh this is..." Yukari started nervously.
"It's not a real gun, it's just for protection... you know how it can be at night... it keeps some of the more... untrustworthy individuals at a distance." Mitsuru explained.
Now knowing it's not actually a real gun so therefore no license is needed, and that it's only used to intimidate the bad guys away Minako nodded from it. "Okay well what a relief, for a second there thought it was real. But I get it, I get it." Trying to lift the mood more she raised her hands speaking it over. "I mean, I don't blame ya, I came here in the middle of the night without prior notice so you have to arm yourself against if it's a thief, or some other thing."
"Exactly, you'd be surprised how safer you feel even if it isn't real." Mitsuru nodded. "Takeba, please escort Arisato to her room her things are in the room at the end of the hall."
"Oh, sure." Yukari nodded turning to Minako. "Follow me."
"Sure." Minako nodded before turning Mitsuru bowing over. "Thank you Kirijo-san. Hopefully we can be the best of friends!" She gave a thumbs up from this before turning following Yukari.
Mitsuru couldn't help but chuckle slightly at that as Yukari led Minako up to the third floor only for a door to open.
"What's going on?" Chara asked.
They looked over seeing Chara looking sleepy with bed hair wearing a green blouse rubbing her left eye. Minako chuckled over teasing a little. "Nice hair."
"Not funny." Chara groaned. "Who are you?"
"Another new student. She kinda slipped our minds while we were helping you out." Yukari admitted before then introducing. "This is Minako Arisato, she'll be a junior in this spring like me."
"Sup?" Minako waved with a friendly smile.
"Oh, nice to meet you." Chara yawned.
"You should probably get back to bed." Yukari suggested to her.
"Yeah, good night." Chara nodded.
"See ya neighbor." Minako waved smiling as they walked to the end of the hall. "Well... this looks like it'll be easy to remember. Cause it's the end of the hall." She chuckled over.
"Yeah, that's right." Yukari nodded. "Here are your keys, make sure you don't lose them ok?"
"Sure." Minako nodded before then looking over. "Oh by the way what was that contract about back there?" She haven't exactly been explained about that contract, and boy yet so she wonders if they encountered it as well.
"Huh, what are you talking about?" Yukari asked her.
Minako was about to answer but sees Yukari looks confused, and probably didn't encounter that boy. So she thinks she only imagined it so she shakes her head smiling. "Oh sorry, I'm probably just tired."
"Yeah, well... good night." Yukari smiled before walking off.
"Yukari?" she turned over where Minako pokes her cheek smiling over. "Here's to a long friendship!" That said she walked in her room shutting it from behind.
"Oh... yeah." Yukari smiled.
Meanwhile earlier...
In one area where people are smoking over was someone sitting by himself. It was a brown peacoat wearing boy looking like a teenager with a toboggan on with jeans just by himself with crossed arms. His name was Shinjiro Aragaki another Senior at the School. There are some reasons why he's beside this part of the neighborhood, but he was once a resident of the Iwatodai Dorm but a incident made him move out to this location. The reasons why? Well... that be another time.
"I knew, I'd find you here Shinji." Hearing someone talking to him he turns over seeing Akihiko walking over to him.
"What do you want Aki?" he questioned.
"It's about that."
Shinjiro frowned over turning away. "I've told you before, my answer is no."
"No it isn't that thing this time." Akihiko shook his head to tell him that what they usually talk about isn't the subject for that this time.
Shinjiro's eyes widened slightly. "Then what is it?"
"Can I sit down?" Akihiko asked him seeing the space beside him is open.
"It's not like I can stop you." Shinjiro sighed.
Akihiko walked up sitting down. "Well... Shinji, this seem like a bit of an odd question... do you believe in legends? Like the story about Mt. Ebott?" Before he can explain all of what is going on, he should let Shinjiro know about the legend in case he hasn't heard.
"That old fairy tale? Yeah I've heard about it." Shinjiro nodded.
"Well... this is gonna sound surprising, in fact I'm still having a hard time believing it until I seen it for real." Akihiko admitted before then saying over. "Couple of years ago, the legend is in fact true, there really were monsters there."
"Alright, to be honest it doesn't seem that far-fetched compared to other things that we learned about. What's the point of bringing it up?" Shinjiro asked turning to him.
"Well... we had someone new moved into the dorms. Chara Dreemurr, she was a recommended student from high marks here... but what really made her move is that she personally knows the guy who freed them who's now the Ambassador of Monsters, her little adoptive brother." Akihiko explained over to him. "Chairman's superiors assumed her connection to the monsters can help us out with the Dark Hour but they trust us to break the news to her as they don't want her to know before than."
"So you're dragging someone else into your fight? That's not my problem anymore." Shinjiro mentioned as he started to eat his ramen.
"Well this next part is the surprising part... the Ambassador, and her brother... is named Frisk Amada." Akihiko revealed over.
Shinjiro's eyes widened. "What!?"
"We haven't quite confirmed it's the same Amada we're thinking of." Akihiko admitted over to him. "What we know is that he's the one who freed the monsters by himself, and had supposedly revived both Chara, and there other brother, the Prince of the Underground. He isn't moving into the dorm so him having the potential isn't something we're looking into right now but I figure you should know that."
Shinjiro frowned. "Is that it?"
"Shinji?" Akihiko expected probably a bit of a reaction, and while earlier does classify on it was expecting it to be more but his friend still looks so calm.
"You're still living in the past Aki, just like always." Shinjiro told him before getting up. "Thanks for the food, the money's on the counter."
The Ramen Chef nodded taking it before turning to Akihiko. "Can I get you something?"
"No, none for me, just here for a friend." Akihiko turned down which the Ramen Chef nodded as the two stepped outside before he turned to Shinjiro. "I just figured you like to know about Frisk... from the official reports he disappeared sometime when it happened. There's always been rumors..."
"Yeah..." Shinjiro nodded in thought before walking off.
"The offer is still open..." Akihiko stared off as he watches him walk away. Then he sighed to himself. "Figures... still should probably ask Frisk if he's who we think he is sometime." That thought in mind he turned walking away back towards the dorm.
The next day...
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP
A hand tapped an alarm clock before Chara slowly rose up in bed. She groaned and got up before looking for the school uniform only to hear Yukari's voice down the hall talking to someone as she realized it must be the girl who arrived at midnight the night before. Then after a minute someone knocked on her door which she hears Yukari. "Chara are you awake?"
"Yeah, I am." she replied walking over and gently opening the door.
They see her dressed in the female Gekkoukan High School uniform with a badge that says 1 on it to signal she's a First Year. Minako smiled over thumbs up. "Looking good kohai! All ready for the High School life!"
They nodded walking down before they see Frisk, and Asriel are at the lobby before they turned over seeing them as they smiled standing up where Frisk waved. "Good morning Chara!"
"Morning Chara." Asriel smiled over.
"Awww. Who are those cuties?" Minako smiled over seeing them.
"My brothers Asriel, and Frisk." Chara smiled seeing them as she walked over. "What are you two doing here?"
"Our schools are on the same island." Frisk explained to her. "We need to take the monorail like you, and decide to go with you as our house is a few minutes away." Then he turned over seeing Minako. "But who's this pretty lady? We haven't seen her yesterday."
"Pretty lady? Oh lady killer." Minako giggled over from this before then curtsying. "But since you asked, I am Minako Arisato another student who lived here in the dorm. I just arrived really late last night, that's probably why you two didn't see me." She offered a hand to shake.
Frisk looked before taking, and rather then shake kisses her hand smiling up. "Nice to meet you ma'am."
"Oh aren't you a gentleman?" Minako giggled again with a slight blush.
"Really Frisk?" Chara rolled her eyes as she couldn't help but smile more. "You're such a flirt, and you have been ever since we met."
"Though, I can see this cutie here." Minako grinned over seeing Asriel before pinching his cheeks. "Wow, I thought this was a costume but it's all real! Are you one of those monsters I heard about a couple years ago?" She hugs him close to her feeling warm from his fur.
Asriel blushed a bit. "Um... yes, I am. It's nice to meet you."
"Why, I think you be good as a teddy bear!" Minako giggled over.
"Hey get off Azzy." Chara glared over.
"Oh that's such a cute nickname, Azzy!" Minako giggled again from that but thankfully lets Asriel go.
Asriel was blushing a bit at that as Frisk smiled. "Should we all head over together?"
"Yeah, though do you two know how to find the middle school?" Yukari asked Frisk and Asriel.
"Elementary for me but yes, we know the way, I lived in Tatsumi Port Island before." Frisk explained over to Yukari. "Shall we go?"
They all nodded walking together to the train station walking into it after getting there tickets. Frisk seeing seats opened when they stepped on offered them to Minako, and Yukari. "Why don't you two sit down, you need the energy for ahead?"
"I'm ok, I want to see the trip since this is a new school." Minako smiled.
Frisk nodded as they stood over before he sighed over. "Back to Elementary... I wonder what the people at my school will say when they see me?"
Asriel frowned. "I don't know Frisk, but are you going to be ok?"
"Azzy has a point, if you're not sure about this you can always try and homeschool with mom until middle school right?" Chara pointed out.
"Well no... I gotta go back at some point. Besides Ken might be there now so I need to be with him or I'd just abandon him again." Frisk admitted over.
"Well if you're sure." Chara nodded hugging him a bit. "If you need anything though come to me or Azzy alright?"
"Chara's right, we'll do whatever we can to help you." Asriel agreed.
"Thank you." Frisk smiled over to them. "I love you two."
The two of them hugged him back.
"Aw, that's really sweet isn't it Yukari?" Minako smiled.
Yukari stared before then looking away. "Y-Yeah it is."
"Huh, is something wrong?" Minako asked seeing that.
Yukari noticing something from the window smiled over. "Oh there it is!"
Hearing that Minako, Chara, Frisk, and Asriel all looked to see the monorail approaching an island with a large building on it.
"Gekkoukan High... still as I remembered." Frisk remembered seeing it.
"So this is our school, it looks... crowded." Chara frowned slightly.
The train stopped as the girls stepped out with the boys before Frisk turned to Asriel. "The Junior High is on a road further down just follow me Asriel." He then turned over to the girls. "Have a good day at school!"
"Thanks you too." Minako smiled.
Asriel and Frisk nodded with smiles as they walked off while Yukari, Chara, and Minako headed to the high school.
"And here we are!" Yukari smiled as they walked in. "You two should head to the Facility Office to figure out who's homeroom your heading in. It's at the hallway to your left. And that concludes the tour. Any questions?"
"What class are you in Yukari?" Minako asked curiously.
"Oh, I don't know that yet I haven't checked." Yukari admitted. "They have class listings over on that bulletin board so we can all take a look."
"You two go on ahead... I'll head to the faculty office first." Chara mentioned. "Where would I find the office?"
"Oh, down that hall second door on the left." Yukari answered showing Chara where to go as she nodded and walked off.
Chara walked over before opening the door walking in looking around.
A brown haired woman wearing a brown suit noticed her walking over. "Oh a new transfer student?"
"Yes, my name's Chara Dreemurr." Chara answered reaching into her bag. "I think you received an email about my recommendation and I also brought a letter."
She looked for a moment before taking an envelope out and handing it to the woman.
The woman blinked taking it, and opened the envelope readying over. She then nodded over looking to Chara. "So your Chara Dreemurr, the top recommended student from Kisaragi Junior High." She smiled over towards her. "I'm Mrs. Toriumi, I teach Composition here at Gekkoukan High. I'll be honest, I'm looking forward seeing what a recommended student like you can do here."
"I hope I live up to your expectations." Chara nodded. "May I ask which class I'm in?"
"Well let's see." Miss. Toriumi checks over the paper in her clipboard seeing what classroom Chara is in. "Class 1-B..." She looked over towards Chara. "You are in Ms. Yamazaki's class. She's here right now if you want to meet her."
"Oh, alright thank you." Chara nodded at that walking over to talk with Ms. Yamazaki just as Minako walked in.
Mrs. Toriumi notices her turned over to talk.
Mrs. Yamazaki who is a orange short-haired woman wearing a white suit with black buttons, and having jade green eyes was doing some work before noticing Chara walking to her which she turned over. "Can I help you with something?"
"I'm Chara Dreemurr, I'm in your class." Chara answered frowning slightly at the woman's reaction.
"Oh, I was told I get the Kisaragi Junior High student." Mrs. Yamazaki stood up showing she's a bit shorter then Mrs. Toriumi. "You probably already heard I'm Mrs. Yamazaki. Good to meet you."
"It's nice to meet you too." Chara nodded.
"To say first, warning you ahead I'm a Warring States of Japan kind of person. If I make mentions, or references during class I apologize about it." Miss. Yamazaki said over before then saying. "Like my name Yamazaki as in the place where Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Akechi Mitsuhide battled for the right to rule Japan after the death of Oda Nobunaga?"
Chara slowly nodded. "I understand."
"Well, we should head to the School Assembly, I'll walk you there." Mrs. Yamazaki smiled over. "If you have anything you need to tell me, your free to tell me at anytime."
As they left miss Toriumi turned to Minako. "Let me see, ten years ago… oh I'm so sorry… I haven't had the chance to read this yet."
Minako waved her hand from that. "Eh, it's fine don't worry about it, really don't. I already got passed it, and there great parents. They live on in my heart, and memories, so I know there still with me."
"I see, well that's very mature of you." Miss Toriumi nodded. "We should head down ourselves."
Minako nodded before they turned walking off.
Meanwhile...
Frisk, and Asriel stopped in front of a building before he turned smiling to the monster boy. "Here we are, Asriel. Gekkoukan Junior High. Just head to the School Facility Office, and you will settle into your classes. My school is a little further down, so I'll walk the rest of the way."
"Alright." Asriel nodded before hugging him. "I'll see you after school Frisk, and... thank you for everything."
Frisk hugs him back smiling before waving. "See you Asriel!" He then turned walking off to his school before Asriel turned over to the Junior High building. Taking a slow breath he walked into the building, fully expecting people to stare and have a lot of questions for him. As expected they turned over looking at him confused. But after a few seconds they turned back doing what there suppose to be doing. Asriel's eyes widened as he walked over to some of the students. "Um... excuse me, do you know what class I'm in? My name's Asriel Dreemurr."
"Hm?" one student turned over before shrugging. "Go to the School Facility office. Over there." He directed over to a door at the wall beside the entrance.
"Oh, thank you." Asriel mentioned walking over to the faculty office as he walked in.
Some teachers are there talking a bit before one noticed him before walking over. "Well hello. We often wondered when we would welcome a monster here at the school after the news a couple of years ago."
"Oh, that explains why nobody was surprised when I got here." Asriel realized before letting out a sigh. "That's good, I was... a little nervous about that."
"Am I correct to assume you are Prince Asriel of the Monsters?" the teacher asked him.
"Yes, that's right... but I don't want to be treated differently because of that." Asriel admitted. "I just... want to be a normal student."
"Of course." the teacher nodded over before then smiling. "I'm Mr. Komaki, I'm the teacher for your class. I hope you can have the pleasure of having a good school life here." Asriel sees that the guy has short gray hair wearing a formal green suit, and a red polka dot purple tie.
"I hope so too." Asriel smiled warmly.
As the same time with Frisk...
He took a slow breath before walking into the elementary school for what would be his last year. He looked around as some students looked over, and widen there eyes seeing him which he looks a bit nervous about.
"Mr. Amada?" one teacher looked over shocked seeing him who Frisk recognized as Mrs. Kiyosu a teacher friend of his. "Is that really you?"
"Mrs. Kiyosu, yes... it's me." Frisk smiled seeing him.
"Oh well good to see your back." Mrs. Kiyosu smiled over relieved. "We were worried something terrible had happened to you but when we seen on the news you released the monsters, we couldn't believe you done something like that. We're terribly sorry for the loss of your mother but it looks like the monsters had given you something grand."
"They gave me so many wonderful things, they're all amazing people." Frisk smiled before pausing. "Has... Ken been ok?"
Mrs. Kiyosu looked a bit troubled. "I'm... sorry... we tried reaching him before but... he sorta shut himself off. He isn't like we know him as those years ago."
Frisk frowned. "I see, maybe I can try and talk to him."
"I think that would help him a lot." Mrs. Kiyosu nodded before smiling. "Welcome back Frisk, we'll be certain to help catch you up on what you missed."
He nodded over before then Mrs. Kiyosu then spoke. "Oh, and Frisk... your also having a new teacher. Unfortunately, Mr. Azai had retired from teaching but he wishes you luck."
Frisk frowned slightly. "Oh, I'm sorry I couldn't say goodbye to him."
"I'll be sure to pass the message. Your new teacher will be-" Mrs. Kiyosu started before perking up. "Oh here he comes now behind you."
Frisk blinked and turned to see who his teacher was going to be. Who stopped in front of him as a young man. He has blue short hair that's smooth on his left side with orange-tinted black rimmed glasses on his face, and wearing a green jacket with straps on, and blue jeans on while holding a metal suitcase staring at him.
Frisk blinked. "Oh, hello."
"Morning." the man nodded over to him.
"This is Mr. Shirato, he recently came in as soon as Mr. Azai retired. He's new but he knows what he's doing." Mrs. Kiyosu explained over to Frisk with a smile over. "You know he's the one who brought the news of the monsters to us as a matter of fact."
Frisk's eyes widened hearing that. "You told everyone about the monsters?"
"One way or another." Mr. Shirato nodded before looking at Mrs. Kiyosu. "I'll take it from here, I like to discuss things with him privately for a second."
"Of course." Mrs. Kiyosu nodded with a smile. "I wish you luck Frisk, have a good year." She waved before walking off leaving the two alone.
Mr. Shirato then turned over to Frisk gesturing him to follow with a shake of his head. Blinking he followed Mr. Shirato. "Is everything ok?"
Mr. Shirato opened a door where Frisk stepped inside, and he closed the door. "Yeah it's all fine. Just thought to relay something to you." He then turned over to Frisk. "Have you heard about it?" Frisk blinked hearing that as the teacher explained. "Have you heard about the MHR website?"
The MHR that he is referring too is short for the Monsters Has Rights site where it was created by someone who had heard the news of the monsters being released, and agreeing with Frisk's claims that the monsters should have the same right as humans to have jobs, to vote, to start there own business, all rights that humans have. The site got a lot of supporters, and grew to something that allowed the monsters to have said rights, and some monsters relayed things onto it where if it wasn't for it, they be stuck where they were before.
"Yes, I actually visited the site myself a few times." Frisk smiled.
"I see." Mr. Shirato closed his eyes before walking typing something over before turning the screen. "Take a look here."
Curious Frisk looked to see what Mr. Shirato pulled up. It was the website but has a small message on it.
"Welcome Back:
Webmaster Moros."
Frisk's eyes widened. "You... you mean you're the one who made the website?"
"Yes, I am the real identity of Webmaster Moros." Mr. Shirato nodded over to him. "Jin Shirato is my real name, don't forget that."
"That... thank you very much." Frisk smiled.
"I believed that the monsters have brought something new to life. The soul cannot be truly satisfied unless you live life to the fullest... and I think the monsters can do so which is why I made the website to spread the word." Mr. Shirato explained over towards him. "I spoken about this to only you as I feel that as the Ambassador you should know who Webmaster Moros truly is. I'd ask you keep this between us, if word got out I'm Webmaster Moros lots of people want to talk to me, and frankly I don't want or need that kind of attention."
"I understand completely." Frisk nodded. "I won't tell anyone about this... but, thank you for it."
Mr. Shirato nodded over before he then stood up. "Well it should be about time for Morning Assembly. Shall we get going?"
"Yeah, we should." Frisk nodded.
At Gekkoukan...
Minako, Yukari, and Chara had all gone to the auditorium for the start of year assembly where a gray-haired man with a small mustache and glasses wearing a suit with a red tie was speaking.
"And so, another new school year is upon us. I'd like each of you to remember the proverb, 'If a job's worth doing, it's worth doing well.' When applied to student life this means..." he continued.
"Excuse me psst?" someone tapped on Minako's shoulders as she turned over confused. "You came with Yukari at the entrance right? I got a question, do you know if she has a boyfriend?"
"No, I don't." Minako admitted. "I just met her the other night and we're staying in the same dorm."
"I see, you only met up with her, so you wouldn't know." the boy spoke with a shake of his head. "So how much do you know about her?"
"I hear talking." a brown elder teacher spoken up over staring unamused over. "It sounded like it's coming from Ms. Toriumi's class."
The boy flinched pulling away as Ms. Toriumi shushed her class. "Shhh, be quiet, your going to get me in trouble!"
Chara frowned. "He seems like a friendly teacher."
So the assembly went off without a hitch before soon classes began over where Chara was in a class with her new classmates, and Miss Yamazaki who is teaching over while making the occasional reference towards the Warring States of Japan but all in all Chara had a good school day. After exiting the classroom she encounters Minako who smiled over while with a boy wearing a cap, and having a trimmed beard. "Evening there Chara. You want to join us here?"
"Huh, who's this?" Chara asked curiously noticing the boy. "One of your classmates?"
"Yeah."
"Sup, dudette!" the boy grinned over to her. "I'm Junpei Iori, nice to meetcha!"
"Chara Dreemurr." Chara nodded. "It's nice to meet you too senpai."
"Would you like to join us? He's taking me to a small tour around here." Minako offered over towards Chara.
"Why not, after you Iori-senpai." Chara shrugged.
"Hey just call me Junpei alright?" Junpei asked her grinning over before he walked ahead of them. "First check out the roof of the school."
Chara blinked but nodded as the two of them followed Junpei. Eventually after arriving he opened the door grinning to the girls. "The view is nice, and you can taste the cool ocean air from around the island! I come up here sometimes to get a breath of fresh air, and see the scenary above. I don't care where you two are off too, you ain't gonna find a better view then this. ...Eh no offense."
"I think I know a better view." Chara shrugged as she looked. "It is nice though."
"Yeah, it's an amazing view." Minako smiled.
"H-Huh?"
Hearing that they turned over seeing a girl was already there a teal haired girl who looked surprised seeing company was here.
"Oh sorry, did we catch you at a bad time?" Junpei looked surprised seeing there's someone already here hoping they weren't catching her during something bad.
"N-No, no, I just... wasn't expecting someone else here." the girl admitted over shaking her head.
"It's... it's alright." the girl shook her head before turning back what she was doing. "Please don't let me bother you."
Junpei rubbed his head a bit before shrugging. "Well she said it's fine for us to be here... but let's head out anyway okay? We probably should leave her alone..."
"Alright." Minako nodded turning to the girl before they all walked down.
They exit out of the school discussing over where they find Asriel is waiting for them outside of the school building.
"Azzy, are you alright?" Chara asked seeing him.
"Just thought we head home together." Asriel explained over to her. "Frisk said he's bringing someone. Someone important to us to meet." He then turned to Minako, and Junpei. "Only me, and you though Chara."
Chara nodded. "I guess that's a sign we should split up and meet back at the dorm Minako?"
"Sure." Minako nodded over before turning to Junpei. "Shall we "Stu-pei"?"
"Haha very funny." Junpei rolled his eyes with a grin. "Only Yuka-tan can call me that." With that he, and Minako walked off to continue on.
Chara watched them go before sighing. "This is going to be... a long year."
"I know." Asriel smiled over. "But we are at peace at least."
"True, we are." Chara smiled. "Do you mind if we head to the shrine before heading back?"
Asriel nodded over before then saying. "Sure. We should wait for Frisk though..." Hearing something he turned over smiling. "Oh, here he comes." They see Frisk had brought Mr. Shirato over with him walking over to them.
"Hey Asriel, Chara. How was school?" Frisk asked them smiling.
"It was actually really good today." Asriel smiled hearing that.
"It was fine." Chara shrugged. "Though... there are too many humans."
"Just give it some time Chara." Frisk assured her before then saying. "Oh I have someone you two need to meet!" He gestured over to Mr. Shirato who nodded over. "This is Mr. Shirato, Mr. Azai retired so he's there in his place. He's also the true identity of Webmaster Moros of the MHR site." They seem to be by themselves so it's fine if Frisk tells them about that part. Frisk had asked Mr. Shirato if he can tell his family such as his new parents, and siblings which Mr. Shirato doesn't mind as long as they can keep a secret.
"The... you mean the Monsters Have Rights site?" Chara asked in shock.
"That... wow, that's amazing." Asriel smiled.
"He told me it as I'm the Ambassador of Monsters, I should know. And I feel you two should know too as long as you don't tell anyone else." Frisk said to them smiling.
"I don't want or need media press going onto me about it. I prefer to live quiet, and peaceful without a camera crew, or a fan at my door every 10 minutes." Mr. Shirato explained over why he prefers to keep his Webmaster identity on the downlow.
"Your secret's safe with us." Asriel promised with a smile.
Mr. Shirato nodded over before turned away but looks back on Frisk. "I'll see you at school tomorrow then Frisk. Remember secrets with us. Bye." That said he walked off to head to his usual life leaving the three alone.
"So... where do you three want to go too?" Frisk asked the two.
"I promised I would visit Koromaru, so I think I'll go see him before heading back to the dorm... and, let mom and dad know that it's not ideal but I'm probably going to be ok this year." Chara answered.
Frisk nodded before then saying. "Okay well Chara remember, the day after tomorrow is a night with us." They worked out where once a week Chara will stay a night in where there living at to have her away from humans for a night at least.
"I remember... I'm looking forward to it already." Chara smiled as they went to the shrine.
Later that night...
"See ya soon, Junpei!" Minako waved as she entered the dorm closing the door after bidding Junpei bye after a fun evening.
"Welcome back, how was your first day?" Mitsuru inquired calmly.
"Well certainly something to remember." Minako turned over seeing her smiling. "How you doing Kirijo-senpai?"
"Fine, Dreemurr arrived not long ago but went right to her room. You're likely exhausted as well so I'd suggest you do the same." Mitsuru noted.
Minako checked over seeing it's a little late in the evening. "Should probably try returning earlier then usual that way I have time to know what you guys are about." She then waved. "I'll go ahead, and rest for the evening. See ya."
"Good night." Mitsuru nodded as Minako went up to her room.
After she left Akihiko walked into the room looking back before turning to Mitsuru sitting down on a chair. "Mitsuru, we need to chat a bit before I leave for the night."
Mitsuru sighed and put down a book. "I agree."
Akihiko started over the conversation. "It's about Frisk. Frisk Amada."
"I had a feeling, and I already looked into it." Mitsuru frowned. "You know it too don't you?"
"Yeah, I have suspicions if he's the same one we're thinking of." Akihiko admitted over. "I feel I need to talk it over with him personally to confirm for real though, the rumors said over he disappeared, or he killed himself... but he released the monsters underground? I need to know what exactly happened."
Mitsuru just frowned but nodded in understanding.
"So tomorrow we will pull him for us to chat." Akihiko stood up before then saying. "I'll be back later tonight for training. The cases of Apathy Syndrome had to have been the Shadows." He walked exiting the dorm leaving Mitsuru there.
Mitsuru frowned watching him go. "We can't just drag him into this Akihiko."
She turned back to her book reading more as the night went by.
The next day...
Knock Knock Knock.
Minako slowly woken up to hearing some knocking.
"Minako-senpai? Are you up?" Chara asked.
"C-Come in..." Minako yawned sitting up.
Chara walked into the room. "Are you alright?"
She blinks looking around seeing what seems like merchandise of colorful horses around... and Minako's PJs are blue with a cyan pegasus horse having red eyes, and a mark on her flank having a rainbow colored lightning bolt, and a rainbow mane, and talk as said girl is wiping her eye to wake up.
"Huh... what is all..."
Minako blinked up to her before pausing realizing what's going on that she blushes a bit. "Uh... yeah ponies everywhere huh...? Love Rainbow Dash." She chuckled sheepishly gesturing to her PJs before then nervously asking. "So uh... what do you need?"
"Oh... I just came in to make sure you're awake so you're not late to school." Chara answered before awkwardly leaving the room. "We'll be waiting downstairs."
"Please wait outside while I get ready." Minako requested getting up to start dressing up.
"Oh, sure." Chara nodded stepping outside.
After about a minute Minako exit the room blushing a bit. "Uh, thank you..." She leaned close to Chara telling her. "What you seen in the room stays between us okay?"
"I wasn't going to say anything." Chara admitted clearly a bit weirded out by it.
"I just... love the series since I was younger." Minako admitted over. "I know it's for little girls but I love it to bits. Especially Rainbow Dash always so loyal to her friends."
"If you say so." Chara shrugged as they walked to head to the school.
Later at Gekkoukan...
Chara, and Minako arrived at the school over as Junpei noticed them grinning. "Hey you two!" They turned over seeing him. "Man, today is the perfect day! The sky is blue... We're young... What more could we ask for?"
"It to be tomorrow?" Chara guessed.
"Tired huh man? I feel tired too. But in times like these, it's best to sleep during class! You ever notice how sometimes taking a nap in class makes you feel more refreshed than sleeping at home?" Junpei asked with a grin.
"Well... I guess you have a point." Minako agreed. "It does feel good to rest a bit."
"I'm not listening to the lecture anyway so I'm screwed later." Junpei shrugged at that before then sighing, "Then again we are stuck with classic literature by Mr. Nasty ol' Ekoda." He rubbed his head saying that.
"He bad?" Minako asked hearing that having seen him a little yesterday at the assembly.
'"Yeah, he is." Junpei nodded.
They walk into the classroom where the school day played much normal to them. Then came lunch period where everyone is settling having lunch over with Chara sitting with Minako, Junpei, and Yukari over while Junpei is cracking jokes that Minako laughs at while Yukari rolls her eyes. Chara stared over not minding company but wishes she sees less humans, and more monsters... ah well the night is coming soon for her.
"Excuse me, Dreemurr-san?" Confused she turned seeing Akihiko sitting down beside her. She haven't had a chance to talk to him yet so this is new.
"Do I know you?" Chara asked since she hadn't met Akihiko yet.
"Akihiko Sanada one of your dormmates." Akihiko explained over.
"Oh, nice to meet you." Chara mentioned.
"Same." Akihiko nodded before asking. "Listen this is out of nowhere, but I need to ask you something."
Chara's eyes widened before she frowned. "Sorry, not interested."
"You haven't even heard what yet." Akihiko frowned on it. "And no it's not a date offer."
"Then what is it?" she asked hearing that. "Is something going on, I told Mitsuru-senpai I won't be at the dorm tomorrow night."
"Me, and her need to talk to your brother Frisk." Akihiko answered.
Chara's eyes widened slightly hearing that. "Huh, what do you need to talk with Frisk about?"
"I'm sorry it's something important." Akihiko told her simply.
Chara's expression darkened. "You can tell me what it's about and then I'll tell Frisk."
Akihiko stared over before then he sighed over. "Fine... it's... about if he's the same Frisk we're thinking he is."
Chara frowned. "I'll have him come to the dorm… but Azzy, Sans, and I are going to be there."
"Fine by me." Akihiko nodded before getting up before then warning. "He ain't there, I'll head to the house." That said he walked off.
"What was that about?" Junpei asked.
"I have no idea." Yukari frowned.
"That was Sanada-senpai wasn't he?" Minako had met up with the Chairman yesterday who explained otherside them, there was also a Senior named Akihiko Sanada who she figures this is him.
"I think so, but what does he want with my brother?" Chara frowned.
"Your guess is as good as mine." Yukari admitted over before then asking. "But... it can't be anything serious can it?"
Chara just frowned.
So the school day went by normally, and by the end Asriel who had arrived to walk back with them walked together with Chara, and Sans who had appeared suddenly after they talked about it to Frisk's school where they seen said boy waving bye to Mr. Shirato as he left to head home for the evening.
"Frisk are you busy?" Asriel asked waving to him.
"Hm?" Frisk turned over before smiling. "Hi Chara, Asriel." He then smiled bigger, "Hey Sans, you putting yourself on a 'bone'-jog?" He made a wink after saying that.
"good one, but nah... apparently some of Chara's dorm mates wanted to see you and she asked me and the prince to join you guys." Sans answered.
"Why do Chara's dorm mates want to see me?" Frisk asked curiously.
"That's what I want to know." Chara frowned. "Whatever it is, we'll find out soon."
Frisk nodded as they all walked together to the Iwatodai Dorm. Arriving in Chara opened the door allowing them inside before she closed the door where Mitsuru, Akihiko, and Ikutsuki were waiting as they turned over towards them.
"Ah we been expecting you. Yukari, and Minako went off somewhere so it's just us." Ikutsuki explained over with a smile.
"You wanted to see me?" Frisk asked taking a seat between Chara and Asriel with Sans standing next to the couch.
"Yes in truth, I prefer waiting but Akihiko wanted to see if it's true or not." Mitsuru admitted over to him.
"You know this is important Mitsuru." Akihiko stated over to her that she nodded over crossing her arms. Then he turned to Frisk. "Now Frisk we want you to be honest with your answers okay?"
"Ok?" Frisk blinked a bit confused why they were asking him questions.
"Well let's get the important question out of the way. Is your mother Aoi Amada?" Akihiko asked him.
Frisk's eyes widened. "How... how do you know that?"
"Please answer the question." Akihiko told him.
Frisk frowned. "That... was my mom's name."
"And your brother's name is Ken?"
Frisk looked down but nodded.
"Yes... this is indeed the Frisk Amada we thought of." Akihiko frowned from this.
"We're so sorry for your mother's death..." Mitsuru spoke over sadly to Frisk. "We didn't mean to press you for the truth..."
"It's fine, is that it?" Frisk asked them.
"Well just that... why exactly you went to Mt. Ebott? We heard lots of rumors, you disappeared, or died... we want the truth."
Frisk looked down from this. "I... I wanted to die..."
Asriel and Chara hugged her as Mitsuru frowned.
"I see."
"Me... me, and my brother got into a pretty big fight... after the police brushed us away after they asked us what happened, and we seen a monster not like Sans... he wanted to find who was controlling it... I tried telling him that we can't go after him as mom would want us in peace but he yelled he doesn't want to see me again... I felt like I let him, and mom down so... I went to Mt. Ebott... just to die." Frisk closed his eyes with tears. "But... I found Chara, Asriel, and everyone else there... and I wouldn't trade them for anything."
Aklhiko frowned at that.
"...And your brother?"
"I... I talked to him... he's willing to start again... I don't want to abandon him again." Frisk answered over wiping his eyes.
"That's good, hopefully things work out for you two." Akihiko mentioned.
"I'm... I'm sorry... is there anything else you need to ask?" Frisk choked a little as he looked to them.
Akihiko frowned from the look before shaking his head. "No, that's all we needed to know. You can go now... we're sorry for pushing it on you."
Frisk blinked but nodded. "Ok."
Frisk softly gets off before hugging his siblings close to him.
"Are you going to be ok?" Chara asked Frisk softly.
"Y-Yeah." Frisk said sniffing. "I'm sorry for... being a crybaby."
"You're not a crybaby Frisk, it's ok." Asriel hugged him.
"Can we... go home?" Frisk requested.
Asriel nodded holding Frisk's hand as they left the dorm. They watched over before Akihiko frowned over. "So he is the Frisk Amada that we had suspicions on."
"It would seem so." Mitsuru admitted.
"What should we do Chairman?" Akihiko asked the adult in the room. "We don't know if he has the potential."
Ikutsuki pushed his glasses in from that. "Hmmm... I'm afraid there is nothing we can do now. We can't confirm if he has the potential or not, all we know is Chara was active in the Dark Hour as she didn't transmogify when it happens."
"But we don't know if she has the potential, or if she's like you." Akihiko frowned.
Ikutsuki shrugged over from it. "Well the point is that we're not sure for certain if he, or she is capable of using Personas. We will find out soon enough though."
Mitsuru just closed her eyes in thought.
"For now though we will continue like normal." Ikutsuki stated over for them. "Mitsuru, Yukari, and I will continue viewing Minako's progress on the Dark Hour. Akihiko, you continue scouting over the city stopping Shadows, and help anyone who hasn't change in the city."
Akihiko nodded at that. "Right."
Meanwhile...
Sans, Frisk, Chara, and Asriel walked in the house together which Asgore looked over seeing them.
"How was your trip to the dorm?" Asgore asked them.
"It was... strange, Chara's senpai wanted to ask me some weird questions." Frisk admitted. "About my past."
"Did they force you to say anything?" Asgore frowned as he sees they walked on the couch in front of him.
"No, they just asked about my mom and Ken." he answered.
Asgore nodded hearing that before looking to Chara, and Asriel. "Did it end without anything extreme happening?"
"Yeah, for now." Chara nodded.
"Well... Frisk why don't you take a nap? You look like you need some rest. We will come get you for dinner." Asgore offered him with a soft smile.
"Ok, thanks dad." Frisk smiled, hugging him before heading upstairs.
Asgore stared up before looking over to Chara, and Asriel. "Is he alright?"
"For now." Chara nodded.
"Okay well... get started on your homework, and I'll let you know when it's time to head to dinner." Asgore told them.
Chara and Asriel both nodded at that. So they walked upstairs, and get started on homework together helping each other out while also waking Frisk up when time to eat. Eventually they all settled for the night with Chara moving back to the dorm to settle in for the night after seeing everyone is asleep going to bed before it struck Midnight.
Meanwhile...
(Cue Theme: Aria of the Soul)
Minako slowly woken up feeling something odd before widening her eyes looking around.
"Welcome to the Velvet Room." smiled a man with a long nose wearing a suit.
"Huh?" Seeing something different in the royal blue elevator like room she sees a the man in front of her on a table staring at her with his grin. "Whoa... who are you?"
"My name is Igor, it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance. There's actually one more resident of this place, but they had a task to perform and so were unable to join us this time. Perhaps when next we meet you can formally meet them." the man chuckled. "Now then, this is a place that exists between dream and reality, mind and matter... only those who have signed the contract can enter this place."
"A contract, oh you mean the one I signed when I first arrived at the dorm?" Minako asked as the man, Igor, smiled and that same contract appeared on the table in front of her.
"Precisely, from this moment forward you are a guest of the Velvet Room. You are destined to hone your unique ability, and will need my assistance in order to do so." Igor confirmed. "I am more than happy to assist, all I ask is that you abide by the contract you signed, and accept full responsibility for your actions."
Minako looked at the contract before nodding. "Sure, I can take responsibility for my actions."
Igor smiled as a blue key seemed to appear in Minako's hands. "I see, then hold onto this... we can discuss the details the next time we meet."
Minako softly takes the key staring before gasping feeling the area darken as she closed her eyes.
Minako slowly rouse up from her slumber sitting up seeing she's back in her room awoken. She blinked figuring that was a dream only to feel something in her hand that she checks seeing it was the key that Igor given her. Shocked she looked at it as it seemed to vanish before she focused and it appeared again. Deciding to worry about it later she got dressed before heading down with Yukari and Chara to head to school.
Chara, and Yukari walked with her arriving in before she sighed looking over. "School day huh? At times like these I would prefer staying at home..."
"Yeah, I know what you mean." Chara agreed.
"It's not so bad. We have friends, oh maybe we can gossip, go to the mall, and all that stuff?" Minako asked over with a grin. "Oh maybe girls night for us huh? Me, you two, and Mitsuru-senpai?"
"I don't know, plus Chara's not going to be at the dorm tonight anyway." Yukari reminded her. "I'm spending the night with my familiy... I thought you heard about that." Chara mentioned.
"Oh... maybe next time then?" Minako offered over with a grin over excited. "I don't think, I had a girls night in my life, what bout you two?"
They both shook their heads at that. "I don't think I want one, sorry... I'm not a people person." Chara admitted.
"Well maybe you should give it a try. It be loads of fun." MInako patted her back as they enter the school for the school day.
It was a fairly normal day but when it ended Junpei walked over to Chara and Minako. "Hey, are you two busy?"
"No, not really Junpei-san." Minako admitted shaking her head.
"I'm not busy... now." Chara relented.
"Well you two want to come along? I know a good place where you can dine fine!" Junpei grinned over to them.
"Sure, thanks." Minako smiled as Chara sighed. "Fine."
So they all left the school together chatting ahead before then arriving at a small ramen shop where he entered in with a grin allowing the two inside before him. "Here we are! Best ramen place in the city!"
"Hagakure?" Minako asked. "What would you recommend we get Junpei-san?"
"Well of course, the Beef Ramen with scallion spears!" Junpei grinned sitting down. "I'll have my usual sir." The Ramen chef nodded from that turning to start preparing. "Come sit down you two, and tell the good chef what kind of ramen you guys want."
"I'll have the same thing as Junpei." Minako smiled while Chara looked.
"I'll have... something simple... plain ramen." she answered.
"Plain?" Not an option he often gets but the Ramen Chef abides by the rule in the business, the customer is always right. "Very well, ma'am." He turned readying over.
"Plain huh?" Minako asked with a smile to her. "Saving your appetite for later?"
"You could say that." Chara smiled. "Mom's probably making some pie for tonight."
"Pie huh? Boy I can go for one if I can afford it." Junpei shrugged from it reaching into his wallet. "Okay, so how you two enjoying the school life, and time here so far?"
"It's good." Minako smiled. "I'm hoping to make some new friends too."
"I say you already found some." Junpei said with a grin. "Me, and Yuka-tan? We go way back!"
"Really?" Minako asked curiously. Chara just shrugged as she half listened but in reality she was looking forward to spending the night with Azzy and Frisk.
"Of course, I'm sure you remember that me, and her are always into the same class each year." Junpei grinned over. "So are you two like... dating?" Junpei shook his head from that. "I wish... Yuka-tan is more like... a good friend. Well not good necessarily, but we know each other pretty well I think."
Minako nodded from this before then turning to Chara. "What about you Chara, you that close with a friend?"
Chara paused hearing that as she looked down. "A lot closer... to my best friend in the entire world." She started to tear up a bit. Minako moved taking a napkin, and offered it to her. She gently took it before closing her eyes. "Thanks."
"And you Minako?" Minako frowned over replying to Junpei. "No, not really... moving a lot as a child doesn't give me much time to be with people for a while."
"Ah, well just trust old Junpei when I say you two are going to have a great year with lots of new and amazing experiences." Junpei grinned.
Ulrich362: Junpei... you have no idea how right you're going to be.
bopdog111: In more ways then one.
Ulrich362: Of course next up will be... well, Chara spending some time with her family and them talking about why Mitsuru and Akihiko know Frisk? But also... it's the night of the full moon.
bopdog111: Yeah the Magician.
Ulrich362: It's definitely going to be interesting. See you in the next chapter.
bopdog111: Be sure to review!
