It was a nice cool night in Iwatodai as the train stopped at the scheduled time. As the train stopped and opened its doors and the people who took the train slowly walked out. Two teenagers in school uniforms walked out with one of them holding a map.

"So, that was a very long train ride." The teen with the blue hair placed the map in his pocket.

The girl with the auburn hair nodded as they started the walk off. Once the clock reached midnight, everything turned off and nothing was active, but the two teens didn't even react.

They both arrive at the dorm they're assigned to and they open the dorm with everything still normal for some reason. The girl with red eyes closes the door as the other one placed the bags on the floor. They stopped what they were doing when they heard a voice coming from the counter.

They both look at the kid sitting behind the counter. "Welcome, I have been waiting for you."

He appeared between the two teens as he looked at both of them. "If you want to proceed, please sign your name here."

A contract flipped opened as he pointed at the counter. The girl walked towards it first and signed her name. "Minako Arisato"

The girl backed away from it, so the other one can sign his name. He guy slowly walked towards contract to sign his name also. "Minato Arisato"

He picks up the contract and hands it to the kid. He places the contract on his chest and closes his eyes. "No can escape fate, it delivers us all to the same fate." He lifted up the contract and it disappeared as he stared at them. "You can't plug your ears and cover your eyes." He lifted up his arm towards the two as the darkness looks like is dissolving him. "And so it begins."

They looked at each other and they both turn their head when they heard a female voice. They see a girl standing close by with her hand near her right leg. Both of them notice what looked like to be a gun holster on her leg, they both don't even flinch when she tried to grab it. All three of them suddenly hear another female voice behind the brown haired girl. The brown haired girl stops from pulling out the gun and turned towards the voice. "Mitsuru-senpai!"

The lights turn on and the only thing they can hear is the music coming from Minato headphones. The girl with red hair walked to them and stopped next to the brunette. "I didn't think you two would arrive so late."

Minato looked at them before shrugging what just happened. "There was some terrible accident, so our train was delayed."

"I see, well, my name is Mitsuru Kirijo. This is Yukari Takeba." She raised her arm towards the other girl.

"I'm Minato Arisato."

"My name's Minako Arisato."

"Okay, your rooms are on the second and third floor. Your things should already be there." Mitsuru smiled as she looked at Yukari. "Yukari, could you show them the way?"

Yukari nodded as looked at them before she walked off and turn towards them and waved for them to follow.

They ended up at the end of the hallway of the 2nd floor, Yukari turned towards Minato and lift her arm up with a key in her hand. Minato grabbed the key and looked at it for a second. "Okay, here's your room and that's your key. Make sure you don't lose it or you're never going to hear the end of it."

Minato nodded. "Good night, Minako," Minato smiled at her.

Minako smiled back. "Good night, Minato, see you tomorrow."

Yukari turned to lead Minako to her room. Yukari looked at Minako for second before she noticed. "What?"

"So, you look pretty close to him, are you friends or something?"

"Minato and I are twins."

"Oh, really? You don't look alike so I didn't think you'd be related to each other."

"That's because we're fraternal twins."

"Yeah, I figured as much," Yukari said. "How's it like to have a brother?"

"It's good to have someone to watch your back. Someone you can always trust."

Yukari nodded as they reached Minako's room she handed her the key. "Here you go, if you have any questions let me or Mitsuru-senpai."

Minako nodded and she unlocked the door, Minako heard Yukari say something. "Hey, did anything seem weird on your way here."

"Uhm... no, nothing seemed weird. Why do you ask?"

"Oh, okay. It's nothing, good night."

Gekkoukan High

Minako, Minato, and Yukari walked past the gate of Gekkoukan and Yukari turns to them. "Well, this is Gekkoukan High, hope you like!" Yukari started to smile.

All three of them entered and Yukari again turns towards them after explaining everything they need to know. "Okay, that concludes the tour. Do you have any questions?"

"I don't think so... What class are you in?" Minako asked

"Hmm, I don't know I didn't check yet," Yukari answered

"...Where do we go now?" Minato walked by them to look around.

"Oh, yeah! You should go see your homeroom teacher first." Yukari point towards one of the hallways. "The faculty office is that way. Okay, I got to go."

Minato and Minako walked to the faculty, Minato opened the door for Minako and they both walk in. They both looked around for any teacher, but the only teacher that's here is the one that looks really busy. They both look at each other and the teacher finally noticed them. "Oh! Are you the new students?"

"Okay, let's see... Minato and Minako Arisato, right?" They both nodded.

"Let's see... eleventh grade, you're in class 2-F. That's my class." They smiling hoping they would be in the same class.

"Okay, come on we got to go."

Minato grabbing his stuff to put away, suddenly he heard a voice behind him. "Hey, how's it going?"

"Who are you?"

"Me? I'm Junpei Iori, I transferred here when I was in eighth grade." Junpei placed his hand on his shoulder.

"Personal space."

"I know how lonely it get's here." Junpei completely ignored him.

"Hey, Minato. Do you want to do anything before we go back?" Minako walks up to him.

"Um... No, I can't think of anything."

Minato said goodbye to Junpei before he walked off with Minako. They sat down on a bench wait for the train. "So, how's your first day of school go for you?"

"It went really well. How about you?" Minato said.

"It well for me too." The train arrived after ten minutes of waiting and left to the dorm.

Iwatodai Dorm

The twins arrived at the dorm and they both noticed Yukari and some guy in a suit sitting one of the couches in the lounge area. Yukari looked at the door after the hearing it open. "Oh, there they are." Yukari waved them over.

"Welcome, it's nice to meet you. I'm Shuji Ikutsuki." The twins sat down on the couch opposite to them. "I'm here to see how the new students are doing and to answer any questions."

"I got a question, who else lives here?" Minako asked a little excited to meet new people.

"Well, there are currently only three other students. Yukari, Mitsuru, and a senior name Akihiko Sanada."

"Oh, okay, that's all the questions I got," Minako said.

"Oh, okay. Then I bid you a farewell, I actually have some other business here. You should go to bed after such a long day." They nodded and left to their rooms, when they made it to the 2nd floor they said goodnight to each other.

Minako woke up from her slumber and got to get ready for the day ahead. She walked down the stairs and looked at the end of the hallway. She noticed that Minato and Yukari are walking towards her. Yukari looks at Minako and smiles at her. "Hey, Minako, I was just about to go get you." Minako nods as she walks with them out of the dorm. "Mitsuru-senpai asked me to walk with you to school."

Iwatodai Dorms: Late Night

Mitsuru and Yukari sitting by a large surveillance device and monitoring both Minato and Minako condition. Ikutsuki walked up to them wondering if their new guests are okay. "So, how's are new guests doing?" Ikutsuki asked.

"They have fallen asleep not too long ago," Mitsuru said.

"I don't feel right doing something like this," Yukari said as she started to feel a little guilty.

"Yukari, I heard they're in the same grade. Won't it feel more comfortable having someone in the same grade as you?"

"I guess so."

Suddenly a loud sound is heard from the surveillance device and Mitsuru pressed a couple of buttons. "Akihiko, is that you?"

"You guys won't believe this! But this thing is huge!"

"What!? Where are you, Akihiko?!" Mitsuru said, worried for her friend's well-being.

"I'm coming to dorm right now!" Akihiko answered.

"What?! You bring it here!" Yukari said, completely surprised from Akihiko's actions.

Everyone quickly ran down to the lobby as they arrived Akihiko arrived also. He slammed the door while holding his arm. "Akihiko!"

"Senpai!"

Yukari checked to see how bad his injuries are. "Akihiko, where's the enemy?" Mitsuru said

Suddenly the building started shaking, Mitsuru looked at the window and noticed a bunch of shadows climbing the building. "Okay, there's a lot of Shadows here, Akihiko and I are going to go fight. You go wake up them and get them to safety!"

Yukari nodded and ran off to the others, she left for Minato's room first since it's the closest. She turned the corner and noticed Minako walking down the stairs. "Minako! Good thing you're up, come on! We got to go get your brother!" Minako walked down the hallway while Yukari ran down already there.

Yukari banged on the door and yelling his name to try and get his attention. "I'm sorry, but I'm coming in!" Yukari barged in and Minato was wondering why she's here. "Huh...? What's going on?" Minato noticed her sister walk behind Yukari.

"There's no time to explain! Come on, we got to go now!" Yukari grabbed Minato's arm and dragged him, she also grabbed Minako's arm. They made to the second-floor stairs when they heard something downstairs break. "What's that?! Never mind, I forgot to give you this, here you go!" Yukari handed them weapons to defend themselves.

Minato, Minako, and Yukari ran through the door and she slammed the door behind her and quickly locks it hoping they won't be able to get through. "Okay, I think we're safe." Yukari's eyes widen when she hears something from behind her.

A couple of arms appear along with a mask being held by one of the arms. It looks around before it pulls out a few of blades and it starts walking towards them. Yukari pulled out the gun from before and points it to her head. Both of them barely hear what Yukari was saying. "I can do it."

The Shadow smacked Yukari and sent her flying across the roof. It stood there for a while staring at the twins before it starts walking to Yukari. They both watch completely shocked. They both wanted to help, but they knew they couldn't do anything. Minato looked down and stared at the gun suddenly they both hear a voice in their heads. "Go on."

Minato slowly grabbed the gun and looked at it before placed it on the side of his head. Minato slowly brought his breathing back to normal, he smiled and started to whisper. "...Persona."

His eyes start to glow a bright blue and he fires the gun, suddenly a bright light appears as something begins to form. Minako hears something start to talk as the being begins to form, it fully takes form and it says its name is Orpheus.

Orpheus swings its harp as it tries to attack, the Shadow quickly recovers and runs around to try and dodge the fire hitting it. The Shadow sends its arm at Orpheus send him flying it hit the ground. Minako just watches as Minato kneels on the ground as he holds his head in pain. Minako's head suddenly started to throbbing pain and she gripped her head. Her eyes also start glowing a bright blue. "Orpheus!" She called also as the same blue light appears as the same Orpheus appears but it's female instead.

The Shadow was just about to stab Minato, but Minako's Persona kicks it away and sends fire at it. Minato summons his Persona again and Orpheus comes also sends fire at it. Minato suddenly yells in pain as his Persona starts to change from its original form.

The changed form of Orpheus roars and pulls out a sword. The Shadow sends its arms at it, but it dodges and cuts its arms off. It flies towards the Shadow and starts to rip it apart. When it finishes off the Shadow, it roars again and suddenly changes back to its original form.

Both Minato and Minako fall down from exhaustion and Yukari gets up from the ground. She stands there for a few seconds to process what just happened. Yukari slowly starts walking, but then runs up to Minako and worrying for her safety. Once Yukari got to Minako, the other arrived wondering how everyone is.
