Persona 3 : Two Souls

Part 2 - Awakening

Takuya sat up from his bed, ready to begrudgingly start another day.

The blue-haired teen walked over to the calendar on his room's wall, leaning over to check the date.

"April 9th...." Takuya sighed "Thursday." He mumbled to himself as he straightened back up and walked over to his closet, deciding not to waste any more time.

As he finished dressing in his uniform, sliding his uniform's blazer onto his body, he started to think about last night...he couldn't shake the feeling he had a very strange dream, but it seemed to have left him.

Deciding not to focus too much on his forgotten dream, Takuya walked out of his room and then walked across the hall to knock on Miyuki's door.

"Miyuki! Let's get going." He called out after knocking, after a bit with no response he knocked again. "Hey! Are you up?" He asked.

Out of options, Takuya flipped out his phone and called Miyuki who picked up quickly.

"Miyuki!" He shouted with relief "Where are you?".

"Oh, I walked to school with Yukari this morning, I thought you wouldn't mind since I didn't walk alone." Miyuki answered, Takuya sighed since he still didn't entirely trust anyone in this dorm but was at least relieved to know his sister was okay.

"It's fine...I'm on my way there right now, see you in class I guess." Takuya answered back masking how worried he was with an aloof reply.

With that he hung up and flipped his phone shut, placing the device back in his blazer and making his way downstairs. He saw Akihiko at the front door about to leave as well, his eyes narrowed as he glared at the older boy who didn't seem to even hear his footsteps.

"It's him...that guy from the other night." Takuya whispered to himself as Akihiko left the building, he stood there waiting a bit to make sure that guy wouldn't come back.

After a enough time passed, Takuya finally made his exit and made his way to school.

Later on the train to school, Takuya saw Akihiko again, and once again it seemed as though the guy never noticed him.

"He's either really bad at paying attention or doesn't even remember me..." Takuya began muttering to himself "...Either that or he's pretending like I'm not even here, whatever the reason, that guy rubs me the wrong way." He continued his hushed mumbling.

"Then again..." Takuya cut himself off "...Nothing about the last few days has been rubbing me the right way." The teen found himself lost in his thoughts once again.

The train eventually stopped and everyone got off, Takuya from here just made the walk to school, never once losing sight of Akihiko until he reached the gate of the school.

At the gate, his attention was stolen by Junpei who jumped in front of him the minute he saw his new friend.

"T.K.! What's going on, dude." Junpei said with a large grin on his face.

"Told you not to call me that, it's Takuya..." Takuya groaned.

"I know I know, but I feel great today! Weather's beautiful and we're young, what more could someone want?" Junpei began to speak proudly "Oh dude, get this! I-" Junpei began to speak but then cut himself off, this caught Takuya's attention.

"What is it?" Takuya asked "It's not like you to stop talking..." he added.

"Nothing, I just remembered I wasn't supposed to say anything about it." Junpei said trying to brush off the mistake he almost made.

Great, exactly what Takuya needed...

More suspicious crap from this place, at least this time it was from Junpei so it wasn't nearly as concerning in Takuya's opinion. Junpei was the least-threatening thing to the boy, only thing about this dork that he didn't like was how often he'd try and flirt with Miyuki but that wasn't nearly as worrying as the stuff Yukari, Mitsuru, and that Akihiko guy did.
