Persona: Their 'Will' [Completed]

A Thorny Path

Its been two months since we've been here. The shadows that was sent before, showed no traces to where they were from or who sent them. The repairs for the dorm was supplied by Ikutsuki... and Minako was a has been acting a bit weird since then. It seems like she doesn't trust me still or even Ikutsuki. For now, I'm at a small shop, buying groceries.
"Haaaa... Why am I in a pinch like this?" I sighed, asking towards the dark skies. More like complaining.
"The more I think about it, it seems like Ikutsuki is behind this. But.. He was Innocent. I wonder who would do this? A grudge?" I was thinking out loud.
"The more I think about it, the more tired I become." I decided to put the thought of rest and hurried back to the dorm.

---------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile.......

At a dark alley... Two shadowy figures appeared.
"So that's him, huh?" One of them said.
"He looks weak. More weak than what he was before." He continued.
"We should be vigilant." The other, a pale man, advised.
"Then, shall we send the other half of the horde?" The geeky guy said, adjusting his glasses.
"Not yet, we shall split them up and then finish them." A evil grin appeared on the pale man's face, accompanied by a couple of shadows emerging from the dark alley.
"Let's show them fear!" He said.

---------------------------------------------------------

At the Dorm....

"Achoo!" I sneezed.
"Are you alright? You shouldn't have a cold?" Ikutsuki said.
"Huh? No, I'm alright. It doesn't concern you, four eyes." I groaned. I was sitting on the coach of the living room, more like sleeping, while listening to my mp3 player. Ikutsuki was doing some work and Minato has yet to come home.
"Ahhh! Why is he late?" I groaned till Ikutsuki could hear me.
"U-um, why not try calling him?" He replied, still looking towards his laptop.
"Alright..." I was getting lonely anyway. I'm so bored I could die, wait, did Junpei infect me!? No, no, no, the idiot could not possibly infect me. Plus he's not here... Maybe Minato!? Nah, I doubt it. Well I'll just call him.
"Rrringg... Rrringg!" He's not picking up. I wonder what taking so long. Maybe I should go and check him.
"Where are you going, miss?" Ikutsuki stopped her.
"I'm going to look for Minato." I replied.
"Okay, but don't be out till midnight." Ikutsuki warned.
"... Why?" I asked, my hand on the door knob.
"Oh... It seems I haven't explain that to you yet. I'll explain once everybody is here." Ikutsuki casually smiled at me.
"... Fine." I opened the door and dashed towards the last place I knew where he was. What do you mean haven't explained? It could be something important! I was disgusted by Ikutsuki.
"Well, whatever. For now, I have to find Minato. If anything happens, I have my evoker with me." I sprinted towards the place, finding Minato long gone from there.
"Huh? Where did he go?"

---------------------------------------------------------

"Huff! Huff!" Man am I tired. These shadows just came out of nowhere. Thank goodness I know how to box. Thank you Akihiko-senpai. Well, I should head back. I wonder who sent these shadows to me.
"Man, its getting crazier." I said.
"Well, well. It looks like you defeated them." A mysterious figure then appeared behind me.
"Who are you!? Show yourself." He emerged from the darkness.
"...!?." Wait, you can't be.
"You seem like you still remember me. Well, its Jin." He then summoned his persona.
"Attack!" He sent out his persona, crushing the floor in front of me when I dodged the attack.
"You!? Man, this is bad." I then started running from the alley way.
"This is bad, I don't have my evoker and my phone got destroyed." I glanced behind me. He was still chasing.
"You're not getting away!" Jin shouted letting out another physical attack on me. I dodged in time.
"Crap! I've gotten callous, huh?" I sprinted towards the direction I came from just to see Minako waving her hand.
"Where were yo- What the hell!?" She noticed that I was being chased.
"Thanatos!" She then used her evoker to summon her persona.
"Thanks!"
"Its nothing. For now get back!"
"Do you have a weapon or something!?" I asked.
"Brass knuckles. On my left thigh. Under the skirt." I then try to take the brass knuckles before accidentally groping her things.
"Ahh... Hey!" She let out a nice moan and a light blush on her face before giving me a cold glare.
"S-Sorry!" Man, she almost have the same glare as Mitsuru-senpai. I better not get executed.
"Here he comes." I took the evoker from Minako's hand and summoned my persona.
"Orpheus!" I then used agilao against Jin.
"Fuck! I was almost there to killing him! Well whatever, is should retreat for now. I need to tell him about this."
Jin said.
"Looks like he's backing off. We did it!" We called our personas back.
"Next time, I'll will kill you." Jin stated with a cold glare. The intention to kill was all over his face.
"Let's go back for now." I said to Minako.
"... Alright." We dashed towards the dorm.

---------------------------------------------------------

"Ah, welcome back. What happened to both of you?" Ikutsuki asked.
"Its... Nothing... Really... Water." I said, huffing for air.
"Man, you really are weak. Ouch!" Minako then collapsed to the ground.
Her legs trembling.
"You don't say yourself." Being out of shape is a bitch.
"It looks like you two are a bit..... Tired." Ikutsuki stated the obvious.
"You think?" Minako asked.
"Well, anyway what had happened?" Ikutsuki glanced at both of our faces.
"Fine..." We told him what had happened and the person behind this or the possibility of  'Strega' being evolved.
"... That is one problem." Ikutsuki said.
"You don't say?" Minako sarcastically joked.
"Well, anyway is there anything that would this to happen?" I asked.
"I'm not certain." He then pushed back his glasses.
"... Well, that was a waste of time." Minako said, heading upstairs.
"Its night and I'm sleepy. So yeah, goodnight." She said, disappearing into the darkness.
"Maybe is should too...?" Before being able to stand up, Ikutsuki  grabbed me.
"There is something I have to tell you."
"Alright shoot."
"Its about this realm...."
"..? What about it?" I asked.
"There is more than one organization in this world that can use personas...."
