Persona: Their 'Will' [Completed]

The Tower of Shadows

I wake up, finding myself in a blue room... The Velvet Room. The soothing music of an aria playing in the background. A long nosed man was sitting right in front of me with two other assistants, Elizabeth and Theodore.
"Welcome to the Velvet Room, its been awhile since we last met." Igor said.
"It has."
"Well then, let us cut to the chase, if that's how you people say it." Elizabeth said.
"Right, no-" Theodore was cut off from Elizabeth.
"It seems like there will be another ordeal for you. This time, it will ruin you in the inside." Elizabeth said in a serious tone.
"Umm, sis. I was suppose to say that." Theodore whispered to her.
"Hmm? I didn't hear you." Elizabeth pretended.
"I said-"
"Well then let's move on shall we." Elizabeth cut off Theodore's words once more, making him sigh.
"Until we met again fellow guest." Igor gestured. My mind then fades away and I wake up, breathing unsteadily.
"What... What ordeal?" I said to myself.
"I wonder when..." I got out of bed and changed my clothes into my Gekkoukan Uniform. I put my S.E.E.S arm band on my left and had my red headphones around my neck.
"Ah, i forgot to shower." I realized. I went out of my room and headed down stairs.
"I don't think that matters. I don't stink right?" I mumbled to myself. I didn't realize somebody else was near me.
"Its best to shower, so your body is free from germs and so on." A girl in Gothic clothes said to me.
"Ah!" I jumped.
"Oh, its you Chidori." I scratched my head.
"Yes its me. Anyway, did you see the others?" She asked. We both headed towards the finding table.
"Hmm? No, I didn't see them." I replied.
"That's weird. They should be back by now." Chidori said. There was some instant food on the table. We took them and put it in the microwave. After that, we ate them. I was blowing it since it was hot. I couldn't help but have this bad feeling. We ate the food quietly. We chatted for a bit then, Ikutsuki ran down the stairs. He was panting when reached the us.
"What is it?" Is asked.
"I-Its.. Hah.... Minato.... and... Hah.. Sho." He said. My eyes widened. I knew it.
"Where are they?" Chidori asked.
"They... Hah... Crap I need to... Hah... Sit." He sat down st the table after calming him down, we told him to explain.
"They What!?" I stood up. He told us they went to Gekkoukan High in Iwatodai. They were there because one of them was bored and the other was trying to get stronger. He let them go, since he can trust the both of them to protect themselves. He made a grave miscalculation. He didn't take the possibility of one of the twelve shadows to appear. He then ran down and here he is...
"Are they fine?" I was only worried about Minato though. I even took out my cell phone. He didn't answer.
"Answer me!" I said to Ikutsuki.
"I... Lost contact with them soon after." He said. My bad feeling became worst.
"... You gotta be kidding me." I said. I went to Ikutsuki and grabed him by the shoulder.
"You're the reason for this. They're dead because of you. And because of Mitsuru's father too. I fucking hate you!" I shouted to him. Grabbed his collar tightly. Some tears are flowing down my cheeks. Suddenly, a hand was patted behind me.
"We don't know if they are dead." It was Chidori.
"But-"
"You can blame him all you want but don't you have important things than this." Chidori advised me. Right, I wanted to get out of her. This Seal. But not alone. I want to get out of her with Minato.
".. Okay." I wiped my tears. I went to my room and took my naginata and evoker. I equipped the evoker on my waist and held the naginata. I went out of my room and saw Ikutsuki standing there. I walked past him, shrugged him off but...
"Why did you do all of that?" I asked. I was curious.
"By all of that you mean.."
"Yes, lying to us and wanted to revive Nxy." I looked at him.
"I was certain humanity is fated to doom, sooner or later." He said. I eyed him closely.
"And well, I wanted it sooner." He said.
"Why?" He looked at me and said..
" I just wanted nobody to feel the pain of living."
"But isn't that just being selfish?" I asked.
"Have you seen Erebus?" He said.
"... The manifestation of everyone calling to it. They want to die." I had a sad look.
"Yes, everyone, deep down, wants to get rid of this pain of living. Even me until..." He was about to say something but didn't. He only looked at me and smiled.
"What?"
"Its nothing. Its just that I feel grateful meeting you all." He said.
"Alright... See ya." I waved to him. He waved back. I went down stairs and went to the living room. Chidori went ahead, so I crouched and jumped into the TV.
"Woah... This is making me trippy." I said. I was a bit dizzy but got out in the end. I looked up and saw a huge tower. It seemed like the tower was piercing the sky. I looked down and saw Chidori and her persona.
"Found them yet?" I said.
"Wait.. There." She pointed towards a couple of smashed up TV screens. I ran there to see an injured Sho.
"Ah, Sho! Are you alright! Chidori, I need you to heal him!" I shouted.
"I'm alright." Sho stood up, or was it. His aura was different then before. His eyes turned red.
"Hello there, I'm Minazuki." He said.
I tilted my head a bit and was confused at first but realized who he was.
"Oh, Minazuki! Wait, you're bleeding!" I said. Chidori had catches up to me and healed Minazuki.
"Thanks." His aura went back to his normal one. That means its Show we're talking to.
"Anyway, where did Minato go?" I asked, looking around. I was scared.
"He... The idiot went and chased the shadow down." Sho said.
"What!?" I said.
"That guy is one suicidal maniac." Chidori said.
"We should hurry." My bad feeling became true. Please be safe until I get there Minato...

"Hah... Hah... Hah... Hah..." I panted. The shadow is right in front of me, with other shadows surrounding me.
"You're dead." I said. Spitted blood on the floor. My clothes was covered with blood. I might die here but...
"I won't go down without a fight!"
