Hey everyone thanks for tuning in. Rewatching anime when bored has become my past-time these days. When it suddenly hit me.

Most fate/stay night characters are legends and mythologies... and Persona is all about those two things! So I got this. By the way, any of you have a PsP? Have you played the game Fate/Extra? Archer is an OP SoB... I liked Nero but I loved Tamamo XD.

Disclaimer: I own neither of these two franchises.

You've done your best. You sacrificed your life in exchange for the life of your friends and everyone else's. You didn't do this for glory, not for fame, not for recognition nor for money. You did this because you know no one else could. If asked why did you do this? You'd probably answer 'I was bored.'

But that is not the whole truth. You did this, so no one else would. You own a pure heart, a valiant courage, a cunning intelligence and a charming personality all around.

You ignore things that happen around you due to your own fears and the fact that it would become troublesome otherwise but you'd never hesitate to help someone no matter how troublesome the consequence will be.

You. Arisato Minato, have been chosen as a hero. A legend. The master of the Masks. "The Fool"

Your fate as a hero has just began. You will soon awaken. This is not the fate laid out for you but this too is your fate to bear. Your journey will start again soon. Your task for this world will be put on halt for the time being.

Fret not, your power will stay the same, for it is what made you a hero.

As soon as the voice finished talking, a blob like existence lunged an appendage towards the statue of a boy, but before anything could happen, the tentacle like appendage disintegrate into nothingness and the blob itself vanish just like it's tentacle.

"Where..." this boy, wearing a black school uniform with the letters 'S.E.E.S.'. He was looking around seeing nothing but white, until he heard a voice.

Arisato Minato, master of masks, "The Fool". You have been chosen as a hero to fight for a silent war.

"I refuse." He didn't give it a second thought before answering what was on his mind, glaring at the area in front of him even though nothing was in said area.

"We are not given a choice, I'm afraid." Minato quickly spun in place as he was head to head with a giant being with coffins around him, along with another being with a giant harp on it's back.

"Thanatos. Orpheus. What's going on?" The being, called Orpheus, went nearer to Minato and explained, but before it could explain, a certain pointy nosed man came into view.

"Let me, explain it to him." Minato knows this man. He remembers him.

"Igor."

"First, we welcome you to 'The End'. We stand at where all other beings go after death. This is what one would call the purgatory. Here, spirits and the like gather before finally going away. But there are few who are exempted and stay at a certain place here. Some call this place the ['Throne of Heroes']., this place is similar to the sea of souls of your power. The only difference is, unlike the sea of souls, this is where the souls of the world gather. Past. Present. And future alike. You should feel like you know most if not all of them. They are connected to the powers of persona after all."

"Why? Why am I here? What about Erebus? The world is at stake here!" Minato tried to argue, normally, he wouldn't really give so much of an effort nor affection towards stuff like this, so this was very very out of character for him.

"Relax Minato-Sama. The war of the Holy Grail is as dangerous if not even more than Erebus. As for erebus, he has been neutralized for the moment, I can't explain to you in detail as I can only watch on the persona wielders. The grail and everything around it is far from my jurisdiction. Quite frankly, this is not supposed to happen. There is something at hand that is messing with the system but I assure you, everything will be fine. You will be given another chance at life, wouldn't that be great?"

"Great? Maybe. But I've got nothing to go back to on the other side anymore."

"Don't say that. You've been fine on your own before you met with your comrades, I'm sure you'll do fine."

"You will be summoned to the realm of the living once more. You will aid the one who summoned you on his or her journey and as per the contract of summoning, you and your summoner will and must perform a pact as you try to live once more. Failing to form a pact will normally cause the summoned being to slowly lose their mana... Although that may not be much of a problem to you?"

Minato calmed down at this point and was back to his usual lax personality as he grinned at what the pointy nosed man said before a bright light shone from every direction.

"Your power is now your own to control. The velvet room is not connected anymore, your sea of souls have now been upgraded along with your resurrection as a hero."

"Ah, a little warning. The persona sleeping on your [world of souls] could easily awaken at any time at any point, by then, they could easily do as Thanatos and Orpheus has. In a better note, you won't feel alone."

"It is time, Minato-sama. Go forth on your new destiny. 'The Fool'."

Wait, does that mean you'll be hearing voices from now on? Multiple ones? Great, as if Thanatos wasn't enough.

"Okay. I did everything possible. I can do this!" A girl wearing a red turtleneck, a black skirt and long black socks prepped herself up as she did a number of different things. It was like she was making a ritual of some sort?

As soon as she was finished setting things up, she began her incantation.

"I hereby propose, thou shalt come under my command, and thy sword shalt control my fate. Abiding by the summons of the holy grail, if thou accedest to this will and reason, answer me. I hereby swear. I am all that is good in the eternal world. I am the disposer of evil in the eternal world. Thou, clad with the great trinity, come forth from the circle of constraint. [Guardian of the heavens]!"

As soon as she finished her ritual, something she least expected to happen, happened. An explosion of epic proportion rang loud from inside her home, smoke everywhere. She wasn't afraid or startled in the least however as she went straight to were the sound seemed to originate from. As soon as she got there however, what surprised her the most that what she was looking at... was a boy. No more, as old as she was.

"I made a mistake!" she screamed, catching the boy's full attention as she screamed.

"Why, why, why?! Why did I have to forget about MY OWN clocks, now of all times too?!" she sighed after saying this.

"No use worrying about what happened. You. What are you?" she asked the boy.

The boy only dully looked at her and asked her a question he had himself.

"Is this about the [Holy Grail War]?" she irritatingly stared down the boy.

"What do you think? You're a servant aren't you?!" the boy however shook his head no.

"I'd rather be called a summon or a familiar. Servant sounds... different."

'He's getting on my nerves.' She thought.

"Okay, then just to reassure things. You are my 'familiar' correct?" the boy only continued staring at her before answering her.

"I don't know. Are you my summoner? It's my first time being summoned like this, it's a weird feeling. On that note, is falling meters above the ground normal for this kind of summons?" he shrugged.

'This is starting to hurt my head and confuse me at the same time. How can it be his first time being summoned?! Then again..." she carefully observed the boy in front of her while deep in thought.

'His clothes seem to resemble a school from around here in japan. Can it be he's a normal human? No. Impossible, just being in his presence, I feel an incredible amount of mana. Even without a master, he could live for a decade in the least.'

"Excuse me? I feel as if you're undressing me in your mind. I feel uncomfortable." he crossed his arms on his chest while still having the same bored expression.

'I already hate his guts.' she decided.

"Let's just get the contract over and done with already!" she pointed her finger rudely at him, the boy however only stared with the same expression.

"What am I supposed to do?"

"Pledge your allegiance to me and my cause, that's all it will take."

"That's it?" he stared at her, she was still pointing at him while the boy scratched his chin slightly.

"Hmm, how do I do this? Here goes nothing. I am the mask that hides the pain, I am the mask that shows the truth. I am the card that starts and ends. I am the fool. I pledge my allegiance towards the fate of my master. This card signifies the bond between us." the boy took a card from his pants sleeve and tossed it in the air. Rather than falling to the ground, on the contrary, it stayed in mid-air, slowly spinning in place before going towards the girl's general direction.

It stopped right in front of her.

"What... Is this?" she took the card and stared at it and then looked at the boy.

"It's a tarot card."

'Tarot? A divination card?' in the card was the tarot card 'The Fool'

"The Fool. It mostly talks about the start of a journey. With nothing but themselves brought along. Knowing nothing but still bravely going forward. Kind of like our case if you think about it, Master."

He then suddenly bowed in front of her as he introduced himself.

"Arisato Minato, at your service." he broke his normal bored expression and smiled for the first time as he introduced himself.

Well? What do you guys think? I kept thinking whether I should go for Fate/stay x persona3 or Zero No Tsukaima x persona3...

I chose the bloody magic rather than explosive magic... I can still make the ZnT x P3 one... but that would be in the future.
