Persona 5 the Royal: Serendipity (Akira Kurusu x OC, HIATUS)

The Plan and Carmen

A/N: Hello guys! It has been a long time since I did a proper update on this fanfic and checks through this fanfic that I made around two years ago and after the last update with the skit of Autumn Leaves. Unfortunately, I haven't gone far within this fanfic due to circumstances happening in real life and spending time to reconcile and understand my family, along with focusing on my mental health, and recently around last year, I graduated high school and currently enrolled in college as an RN Nurse Major. Now Persona 5 the Royal is out, I feel motivated to write even more along with finally being able to sort things out with my thoughts, and continued with support with my love ones and you guys, as this fanfic is renewed into Persona 5 Royal -Serendipity!

This Chapter is dedicated to...

@ChibbyPanda57 and Em0EMI!

Feel free to follow and check their works, they're awesome people!

Honestly, I never expected to have over 1.5k+ views and the increasing amount of support to continue with updates. Rest reassured, production will continue but please be patient as I'm a mostly full-time college student and assisting elderly relatives in my household. Without further ado, let's get on with the story!

Warning: Contains subjects of suicide and mentions of physical abuse, along with vague hints of an attempt of sexual harassment/molestation. If you are uncomfortable, then please don't read it, as P5 R will cover mature subjects soon. Proceed with caution.

"Persona! Crush them!" Rei commands Castile as she uses Life Drain on the incoming enemy.

Once they're caught off-guard, she brandished out her scythe and charge at them, dealing damage enough to tire them down.

The shadows then charged at her with an Agi (light fire damage) spell and physical attacks, in which Rei manages to narrowly dodged it with her newfound agility and blocking it with her scythe, as she counters with Cleave, rendering them on the ground with a small slasher smile in her features.

Following her lead, Akira, Ryuji, and Morgana dealt with the finishing blow by attacking the strange monsters by using their weapons, causing it to scream out in pain as they were defeated.

"How could I lose...! Forgive me King Kamoshida!"

"That man will only bring suffering and pain towards others, he's no king, just a somebody."

The worn-out armored guards then collapsed and remnants of the shadows have faded away from existence, leaving behind nothing.

Since Rei awakened her persona, along with the toll of using precognition abilities, it doubles her fatigue, as the brunette nearly collapsed on the floor, if it weren't for Akira support, holding Rei's arm over his shoulder, to keep her standing.

"Thanks." She gave him a weak smile, only to get a reply back with an acknowledging nod.

"..How 'bout that!" Ryuji exclaimed with proudness over his defiance against the so-called king's guards.

"Whoa... So Ryuji and Rei had the potential too..." Morgana exclaimed in great surprise.

"Even if you apologize now... I ain't forgivin' you...!" The blonde panted out in exhaustion while glaring at the so-called king.

"I told you that is my castle. It seems you still don't understand..." Shadow Kamoshida looked down at the teens with an arrogant grin.

Suddenly, a familiar blonde girl in a cat-like swimsuit appears and walking towards Kamoshida, much to Ryuji's surprise.
