Honestly, for no reason, other than wanting to all of a sudden, here's my second attempt at a Persona 3/ Fate crossover. I'm starting to get back into writing and for some reason, wanted to try my hand at this again. I believe it's because of the empty feeling I had after I completed Fate/Extella. That game and story were marvelous. There are only a few games and anime that make me have this feeling after completing them, and that one was definitely one of them.

It will be a bit different than the one before.

A bit short I know, but it all depends on how much people want me to continue. I wouldn't mind but if no one wants to see it, why bother continuing right? Anyway, enjoy.

Happiness. Relief. Satisfaction.

These were all things that a certain blue haired high school student was feeling at the moment as he lay on the, rather hard, legs of his blonde haired companion and comrade. The clouds in the sky moved slowly as time continued to move forward. A slight breeze tickled his face and pushed a tuff of hair in his eyes. He was about to move out of the way, however his arms didn't respond to the signals his brain was sending them. Just as he was getting extremely annoyed at the strands of his hair, slender white fingers gently brushed them away from his face.

Finally rid of the nuisance, he once again relaxed and looked up at the sky. Like this, he was extremely comfortable.

And he deserved to feel this way. Why wouldn't he? He did just save the world from a potential apocalypse. He supposed he deserved some rest. And it all happened in the short span of a year.

This past year had been full of events that he would have never predicted when he first stepped foot in this city again. SEES, the shadows, The Fall, Ryoji, Strega. Everything. Everything that happened during that year had changed him. Whether it was for the better or worse was a matter of opinion, but in his, it was definitely a better change. He had learned to be himself again. Emotions of happiness, anger, sadness. Bit by bit, those emotions, once thought to be lost to him forever, had been slowly returning to him. Even now, staring at the blue sky above him, he could tell he was smiling.

However, a face appeared in his vision.

…..Who was that? The face was definitely female. Cute, blonde hair. She was staring down at him, smiling softly… why?

Oh….That's right….It was Aegis. How could he have forgotten? It didn't make sense. She was definitely important to him, right? So, why?

….That's right. The Seal. He had used his life to create the Great Seal to stop Erebus from reaching Nyx and bringing about the Fall.

So, that was it. This Body was perishing. But, of course, he already knew that. How many times had he had those same thoughts? His Body would not survive without Life in it. It would cease to function and he would pass from this world, his Soul always watching and protecting it. However, he was not protecting humanity so to speak.

He wasn't that noble. Minato Arisato could watch the world burn around him, and he wouldn't bat an eyelash. He could watch and entire country be destroyed and continue going on his daily life, without so much a care in the world. He didn't care about humanity as a whole. No, he only cared about a few very specific people. His friends. Those that journeyed and grew alongside him, their bonds carrying them forth. Those were the people he would soon give his life for.

Ah, he was so tired. Why was that again? Oh, yes. His time in this world was ending.

He tried turning his head, wanting to get another look at Aegis, however, once again, his body would not respond. Instead, he only turned his eyes towards her. Her lips were moving, but he couldn't hear her. Not only her, he couldn't hear anything around him at all. He couldn't feel anything either. His body had gone numb.

Though not able to hear her at all, he took in Aegis's face once more. Ah, it looked like she said that it was okay to rest and close his eyes, although Minato didn't have much faith in his ability to read lips.

Was it really alright, Aegis? For him to rest? The others weren't here yet. He wanted to see them once more. Just one more time. His body, which had been pushed pass its limits, had held out long enough to fulfill his promise to them.

However, he was so tired. Surely, they wouldn't mind if he slept for a bit. Yes, only for a bit.

He closed his eyes, knowing full well, he would probably never open them again. He wasn't angry at the direction his life took. He was satisfied. If he was given a chance to do his life over, he wouldn't change a thing…but he did regret one thing.

He didn't want to die. He still wanted to be with his friends. To hang out. To go eat ramen. To go see a movie. To take walks and talk with them. To go to the beach again. He still wanted to live.

He took it back. If he had another chance to do his life over once again, there was one thing he would want to change. He would want to live with his friends. To find a way to defeat Nyx or Erebus for good and live a normal life with his friends. That is his wish.

A wish that he kept thinking about as the last remnants of his mind disappeared.

A wish that sealed his Fate after death.

The gears turn. He tries to open his eyes but suddenly there is pain. They keep spinning, faster. Pain so bad that his eyes reflexively shut once again as he reaches up to grab his head. Faster and Faster and Faster. The source. What is the source of the pain? FasterFasterFasterFaster.

Information. Too much of it.

Information floods his head. Too much to take in all at once. Words he has no knowledge of appear in his head and before he can comprehend another word, and another, and another. This continues only for a span of 5 seconds, but to him, it feels like an agonizing eternity.

Then, the gears grind to a crawl. The pain stops suddenly, and relief sets in. His brain begins to go back and try to understand some of the data that had just been downloaded into his brain.

The first thing that pops up, Holy Grail.

A magical item, said to grant the wish of the one who holds it. Something that is only heard of in legends and was sought out in the past. Something that shouldn't exist, except only in stories, but the info in his heads tell him otherwise. It's real, and its power was….true as well. One wish, to the one who is granted.

Why did he need to know this? His brain searches again, and he is rewarded with another strange phrase. Holy Grail War.

Once again, information that he should have had, appears in his head.

A war between seven Magi and seven Servants to decide who will win the Holy Grail; who will win the power to get their wish granted. Four Wars have happened in the past. This is the fifth. This?

Ah, he had been summoned. More data in his head appears and his brain comprehends it again.

He was a Servant. One of the seven chosen to be the weapons of the Magi in the war. A symbiotic relationship most of the time. Both must work together to fight the other Magi and Servants and come out on top. He was brought here to fight.

From the info in his head, one of the conditions of an available Servant is that they must have a Wish in mind for the Grail. Otherwise, they wouldn't be needing to risk their lives again, for this war. Did he have a wish he'd want granted?

He did. That wish just before his death. His wish to stay with his friends. A small wish from a boy who had given his worthless life to save his them and accepted the death that came afterwards. Did he really want to fight in this war for such a simple wish?

He didn't know and that surprised him.

He needed more time to think. More time to review all the necessary info in his head. However, he suddenly felt something. Something akin to awe, confusion. Yet, those feeling weren't his.

Then, he "saw" it. A connection. One end attached to him the other to…he didn't know.

He realized that he had been staring at the ground. His body was kneeling, one hand on his head, the other on the ground to steady himself. But he ignored that and followed the connection. He raised his head.

He didn't take notice of the surroundings. No, he chose to ignore everything. That could be dealt with later. First he had to- no, wanted to find the connection he was feeling. In his head, another word popped up.

Master.

It made sense. He was summoned as a Servant, so the Magi who had summoned him would be his Master. And that Master was in front of him.

Their body came in to view. Slender, small.

A girl, he thought.

Then, the locked eyes. Silver eyes met hers. She was speechless. Whether it was because she was in the presence of a being meant to fight and kill or just because she was nervous, he didn't know. They only continued to look at each other.

The mouth move before he could stop it. Four words came out of his mouth.

"Are you my Master?"

The girl looked surprised for an instant. And then….

"Yes." She said.

And the contract was sealed. So, begins the tale of their Fate.

Well? Good? Bad? Let me know. As for who the girl is. I honestly don't know.

I was thinking, why not Rin again? The two seem like they'll make a good pair. But then, I started to like the idea of Ilya and Minato, so for now, until I decide, I left it ambiguous. As for Minato, he will be a bit more like his Persona Q personality and will hardly talk unless spoken to, but I'll try to be his thoughts as best I can. He won't be very emotional, but that's the way I picture he would be. He needs to be a kuudere for him to be Minato.

Story was written in like an hour so there's probably mistakes. Sorry about that, I'll need to get a beta.

Anyway, help me out, what do you guys think? Ilya? Rin? I don't know when I'll update again but I'll try and hurry up and decide what way this story will go and update as fast as I can. Pairing are undecided at the moment.

So long for now.
