Persona: Symphonic Memories

Hello! Thanks so much for clicking on this story. It's something that wouldn't stop nagging at the back of my head ever since I finished playing Persona 4's True Ending. I never intended on doing another new story but the feeling just wouldn't stop bugging me, you know?

Anyway, this is my first ever Persona fic. I think I know what I'm doing since I've played the game a couple of times before. This will be an OC accepting story and the OC submission sheet will be at the bottom of it. Till then, here's the long summary and the disclaimer.

Summary: Do dreams die while reality lives on? Are memories truly forgotten? What if you were asked these questions? What if you were Makiko Huratana, who's asked these questions, but has yet to gain answers? Will they be answered when she moves back to her old town of Inuba, where the oddest rumor called Heart-Break-Waves takes place? What is of that world she goes into when Heart-Break-Waves is called at the same time? What are these manifestations called ManiSouls? And what of Social Links, the Velvet Room, the Ace of Diamonds, secret headquarters, the first Investigation Team, and Deep Sleeps? And the most important of all; What is a Persona?

Disclaimer: I do not own Persona. I do own my own copy of Persona 4. Now lets get this first ever chapter rolling!

Chapter One~Homecoming

Entry #1

Date: Apr. 1, 2012

Time: 5:00 PM

Weather: Sunny with a few clouds.

Dear Daisuke,

Hi, how's it been? It's been a while since I've talked to you, huh? How are you feeling? Are you well? I hope you are. It's been so long since we've last seen each other. I wonder if your eyes are still blue and if your hair is still dirty-blonde. I remember when Tousan would tease you and Dachi, saying that your hair got like that because Okaasan ate a lot of bananas and chocolate during her pregnancy. Then you began to eat a lot of jello so that your hair would turn green! Ha-ha! That was really funny.

How am I doing? I'm fine. I'm still me, messy brown hair and all. Don't worry, I've taken my medicine and I'm using that crappy walking stick the hospital gave me. They also took of my bandage patch today, too. I still can't see anything in my left eye, but I'll live with it. And guess what? I'm getting out of the hospital today! Isn't that great? No more white walls and stuck-up shrinks! I'm going to be going with Mr. McMahon tomorrow so that we can get on the next train to Inuba! It's so amazing! I'm going to be seeing everyone again! I really hope things haven't changed over there.

I really do hope to see you there, Daisuke. It really has been too long. I want to tell you so much. Things that I didn't get to tell you before. And I want to show you the two highlights Tousan and Okaasan allowed me to get. They're really close to my bangs and they're your favorite colors; dark red and light pink. They actually look cool.

I really do miss you, Daisuke. If I can say anything now, I would say this;

I'm sorry.

I'm… I'm just very sorry. I hope you can forgive me for everything that has happened. I wish I had the courage to say that sooner. I hope you'll be willing to let me say that for real when I get to Inuba . I love you. Never forget that.

Well, I have to go now. I guess I'll see you later.

From your older sister,

Makiko Huratana


Day One

Date: Apr. 3, 2012

Time: 3:00 PM

Weather: Sunny

The girl with reddish-brown hair and light green eyes closed her dark green journal with a sigh, leaning back against the soft leather of the train seat she was on. She wore a white jacket with a light blue shirt, black jeans, red convers, and different sorts of colored bandanas were tied around her wrists and neck.

She looked to the window and blinked in surprised. It looked like the tall skyscrapers and smog-filled skies all but disappeared and they were replaced with wide open fields with small houses with a few horses and cattle here and there.

'Has it been that long since I've been in Inuba?' she wondered as she tapped her fingers against her journal in a absentminded way. She jumped slightly when she felt a hand touched her shoulder.

"Easy, Maki-san. It's only me." the girl looked over her shoulder and smiled at the twenty-year-old man with a cup of coffee and a bottle of raspberry Ramune. His hair was black and neatly combed back and his light blue eyes were behind a pair of half-moon glasses. His attire was what could have been a butler's suit, complete with white gloves and a silver pocket watch hanging from his suit pocket.

"Yeah, It's most definitely you, Mr. McMahon." she said with a nod as the man took the seat next to her and handed her the Ramune.

"Are you alright? Any panic attacks or asthma problems?" asked Mr. McMahon as he reached into his pocket and pulled out a small packet of sugar. Makiko shook her head as she took a sip of her drink.

"No, I just didn't see you there. How much longer will it be before we reach Inuba?" she asked. Mr. McMahon checked his pocket watch.

"We should be there in a few minutes from now. And forgive me for asking this again but, it will be your grandparents and your brothers and sisters waiting for us at the station, yes?" he asked.

"Yes. We're really lucky that Baa-chan and Jii-chan have enough space at their house for everyone while my parents and Walker's are having difficult times at work. Not that I saw them much at home anyway." said Makiko with a shrug, her hand wandering to the bangs that covered her left eye.

"Is your eye irritating you?" asked McMahon.

"Not as much as it did before. Oh look, we're here!" exclaimed Makiko, bouncing in her seat when the train pulled to a stop.

"Very good. Lets get going, shall we?" asked McMahon. The iorn-rusted-haired girl nodded and she placed her journal in her backpack before reaching under her seat and pulling out a white and red walking stick. The two of them walked out of the train and they passed the gates. Makiko took a second to smell the fresh country air and feel the cool wind brush her face.

"I will go get the luggage. If you see your family, you should go meet up with them. Just call me when you find them." said McMahon. The brunette nodded and the two separated. Makiko didn't even have a chance to take five steps before a pair of tiny limbs circled her knees.

"Maki-nee-chan! I missed you soooooo much~!" the green-eyed girl smiled at the little six-year-old around her legs. She had light blonde hair and pale green eyes.

"Hello, Kimi. I missed you, too." said Makiko as she petted the girl's head.

"Be careful, Kimi. Baa-chan said not to mess with Maki's legs, remember?" Kimi pouted at the twelve-year-old that came over. He also had blonde hair and green eyes.

"But Karou! It's been forever since I've seen nee-chan! I wanna hug her at least once!" she whined, hugging her sister's legs tighter. Mikado suppressed a grunt of pain and she petted the girl's head again.

"Kimi, can you tell me where Baa-chan, Jii-chan, and the others are? I want to see them." she said, her knees buckling slightly. Kimi nodded eagerly and she led her older sister down the stairs, with Karou's help for he didn't want Makiko tripping with her hand in Kimi's while the other was holding her cane. The three siblings made it to the bottom where five other children and two elderly adults were waiting.

"Nee-chan!" exclaimed the three triplets of the group, all of them running over to Makiko with their green eyes twinkling and their blonde hair flying. They all surrounded her, each trying to jump in her arms.

"Lee, Cee, Dee! No messing with nee-chan's legs! Baa-chan said so!" shouted Kimi, wagging her finger like a scolding teacher. The three little girls pouted but Makiko gave them on a kiss on the head anyway.

"Makiko, it's good to see you again." said Makiko's grandmother, Izumi, as she hugged one of her eldest grandchildren. Her hair was graying and her eyes were the Huratana's green color.

"My, you've grown so much. And look, you look as pretty as your mother was when she was your age. I bet your breaking so may boys hearts at that hospital, hm?" asked her grandfather, Hideko. He had grey hair as well, but his eyes were a light violet color. Makiko hugged him too and she gave a grin as she saw a little seven-year-old, who had brown dirty-blonde hair and eyes as blue as the ocean.

"Hi, Dachi! Did you miss me?" she asked. Dachi scoffed at her and he turned his head up-right, his nose scrunched up as if he smelled something disgusting.

"Filthy commoner! How dare you address a royal prince in such a Neanderthalic manner! I am of pure blood and I should be treated as such!" he said, stomping his foot. The sixteen-year-old next to him made some wild gestures and Makiko gave a giggle. She then curtsied to the boy.

"Please, forgive my rudeness, prince Dachi. Will you please spare my head, for my love to you is all too strong?" she asked. Dachi crossed his arms and turned his head.

"Possibly. We shall see in a fortnight." he said smartly. Makiko smiled and she looked at the sixteen-year-old next to the boy. He looked like Makiko, with the messy brown hair and green eyes like her own. The two could have siblings, twins even, had it not been for the fact that they were cousins.

"Hello, Walker." she said. Walker smiled and made a few more hand gestures and Makiko read them easily. It was a good thing she could read sign language.

*I'm fine. How are you?*

"I'm good. I'm really glad I'm out of the hospital. I hated eating nothing but jello. Yuck!" said Makiko, pretending to do a fake gag. Walker smiled and he then pointed to his eye. He then asked a question.

*Is your eye all better or does it still hurt?*

Makiko gave a forced smile and she pulled back her bangs, revealing the pupiless, pale green eye.

"The doctors said the blindness would be indefinite. It doesn't hurt but it bothers me sometimes." she said with a shrug. Walker gave a worried frown and Makiko felt someone tug on her shirt. She looked down at Dachi, who looked her expectantly.

"Commoner, I've decided that your head will be spared. However, for tonight, you make fudge brownies for dessert! So says the prince!" he said with a raised voice. Kimi and Karou groaned in embarrassment while the triplets giggled and their grandparents and Walker shook their heads. Makiko nodded her head.

"As you wish, my prince."


Makiko smiled as her family of eight and McMahon sat in the dinning room of Izumi and Hideko's home. The house was fairly big and it had enough space to occupy the huge family. The lot of them were enjoying Izumi's homemade Sukiyaki and they were also feasting on the brownies Makiko promised to make. The green-eyed girl felt nostalgic. She was happy to be back with her noisy family. It was much better than the hospital, what with the quiet bedroom and nightmare-filled sleep.

She quickly took a bite out of her brownie take me her forget about it.

"So, Maki. You will be starting school tomorrow, yes?" asked Izumi as she cut up a few more pieces of brownies for Cee and Dee. Makiko nodded with enthusiasm.

"Yes. And I'm so excited! I want to see Ren again! He's been writing letters non-stop on how he's going to show me the new things they have." she said with a smile.

"And you'll be walking with us to school, too. Right, Maki-nee?" asked Lee, his eyes looking at his older sister hopefully.

"Definitely. Oh, and I'll help you out at the sanctuary, too, Jii-chan." said Makiko to Hideko. Her grandparents owned an animal sanctuary just a few miles from their home and Makiko promised to help out while she stayed. She absolutely loved animals.

"Are you sure you want to? It does get boring just sitting at the desk and filing." said Hideko.

"I can manage. I get to see all the animals brought in, too. That's a bonus." said the brunette, giving a smile.

"If you say so. Just promise us that you won't overdo it." said Izumi. Makiko nodded.

"I promise."

"This bores me! The prince demands entertainment!" chide Dachi.

"I'll turn on the radio. Maybe there's something interesting on." said Karou, standing up and walking over to the red radio by the window. He turned it on and switched to a few channels until he stopped at a new station.

"… And in the later news, the body of Mina Sasagawa has been found. The thirty-year-old was found five miles away from her workplace, unharmed. What the oddest thing is that the missing woman was found in a deep coma, her health condition as fit as ever and no signs of harm on her person. This is baffling the police department and private investigators. Miss. Sasagawa has been kept in a local hospital in the Inuba area, countless doctors trying to find out what is the cause of her coma. More news will be revealed later."

"Uh… can we change the station?" asked Kimi, shaking in her chair. Karou quickly did and a cheerful tune played.

"Please come and visit the grand re-opening of Junes. We've taken the time to upgrade all of our departments for all your needs. At Junes, everyday is Customer Appreciation Day. Come see for yourself, and get in touch with our products. Everyday's great at your Junes~!"

"…Everyday's great at your Junes~!"

Everyone blinked and they all turned to the owner of that soft tenor that just played. Dachi stared back at all of them, an innocent look on his face before it morphed into a scowl and a scarlet blush sprouted on his cheeks.

"St-Stop staring at me, you lowlifes! I shall be retiring to my chamber! I will be waiting for my breakfast on the marow!" with that, he ran his way up to his room, stomping on each step he took. Izumi sighed with a soft laugh.

"That's our little prince." she said fondly as the group turned back to eating as the radio played a show tune. Things were quiet for a while until the grandfather clock in the living room chimed a few times.

"Looks like it's time for all of us to go to bed." said Hideko as he stood up. The triplets and Kimi whined but they, like everyone else, were tired, and they were all hauling themselves up stairs.

"Mr. McMahon, you may stay in a guest room. And Maki, you will be sleeping with Kimi on the bunk bed. Have a good sleep." said Izumi with a bow of her head. When she left, McMahon handed Makiko her suitcase and the latter walked into Kimi's green and blue room, posters and stuffed dolls of exotic animals all over the place. Kimi was already changed in her pajamas that were decorated with elephants.

"You can choose which bunk you want. I'm gonna go brush my teeth." said the blonde as she walked out. In the mean time, Makiko changed into an over-sized white T-shirt with red pajama pants. She walked out of the room and waited until Kimi was done with the bathroom. Once the both of them were done, the two said goodnight to people they passed in the hallway and they climbed into their beds, Kimi taking the top while Makiko taking the bottom.

"'Night, Maki-nee-chan." yawned Kimi.

"Goodnight, Kimi." said Makiko as sleep drew her eyes to a close.


Everything around her was shaking, racking around like a tremendous earthquake. She heard screaming, prayers, yells of exclaims, and the pleading names of loved-ones whispered as the dark area was shaken and tumbling.

"Nee-chan!"

"Nee-chan! I don't wanna die!"

Makiko desperately tried to reach through the darkness, her eyes catching nothing and the screams drowning her brothers' pleas for help. Her hands then felt two smaller ones and she gripped them tightly. She then wrapped her arms around the two small heads and she pulled them closely, hearing their sobs and her heart twisting.

"Dachi, Daisuke, please don't cry. Please don't. Everything's going to be fine." she whispered, hoping to draw away their worry.

"N-Nee-chan!" she couldn't tell which dirty-blonde sobbed that cry but she pulled them closer anyway. The area shook more and the screaming grew louder and louder. This cold feeling that ran through her blood, those regretful sobs, her heart nearly beating out of her chest. All these emotions that were coursing in her very core.

Were these fleeting moments of what many before her had felt before they were about to die?

Sirens screeched through the air and the whole room was spinning faster and faster. Makiko could feel her stomach do some back flips and she felt her hope drop faster than the dropping plane. She pulled the children's heads closer and she kissed the top of their heads.

"I love you guys so much. Just close your eyes. Please… just close your eyes and go to sleep. It'll be all over soon. I promise." she whispered sadly as her siblings' sobs echoed. She closed her eyes just as a crash was heard and a flash of white splashed over her eyes…


"Ah, our newest guest has arrived."

Makiko opened her eyes and she moaned as black spots invaded her vision. Rubbing her eyes with the back of her hands, she sat up and looked around, seeing nothing but white and black. The floor of… where ever she was an onyx-black and the space filled area a pure white.

"And it seems she has interesting ties with this place. How unique." chortled the voice. It was smooth but it also held and eerie and cold touch to it. Makiko turn her head and gasped at the man who stood near her. He looked as old as Hideko, his hair thin and white with a bald spot and his skin as pale as if it were bleached. His nose was long and slightly hooked and he wore a formal black suit with white gloves. His large smile and bugging eyes scared her, making her crawl away slightly. The man let out a chuckle.

"Do not be alarmed, young one. You must be careful, or you will fall off our flight." he said, his dark eyes gleaming with mirth.

"Fl-Flight?" stuttered Makiko, looking around and gasping as the empty space was now an air plane aisle with red-velvet seats and dark blue walls. Each row of chairs had a window and the floor had a carpet of white with red snapping dragon designs. Makiko clung to a seat like a cat to a scratching post. The old man gave another laugh.

"Calm yourself. This plane will not fall like the one of your past," he assured. He then staggered a little down the aisle and he looked over his shoulder. He crocked his finger. "Come this way." he said. Makiko gave a gulp before nodding. She then realized something.

"Wait! I need my walking-"

"Your cane will not be required here, Miss. You will be able to walk just fine." interrupted the old man as he walked back to the light-eyed girl, taking her hand and leading her down the aisle. Makiko's mouth opened and closed, amazed at the feeling she felt in her legs. Why was there no pain in her knees? How was she walking this well?

The old man opened a door and he led the frighten girl into a bigger part of the plane. Makiko let out a breath of amazement as she saw that the large room was dark blue with a two purple couches in the middle of the room, along with a tea table. Along with it was a selection of drinks in a glass case and a giant grand piano nearby. At the piano was a hooded figure and near there was a man with light platinum-blonde hair and golden-colored eyes. He wore a blue outfit that resembled a flight attendant's outfit along with a dark blue pilot's cap. In his hands was a brown book with odd designs.

"Please, take a seat." said the man, sitting on one of the couches. Makiko took a few uneasy steps as she sat herself on the opposite couch, crossing her legs and looking at her lap. The one sounds around the group of four were the low hum of the flying plane and the supple music that came from the piano. Makiko suspected that it was Beethoven's 6th Symphony.

"Welcome, to the Velvet Room," said the old man. Makiko opened her eyes and stared at the man. "My name is Igor, and I am delighted to make your acquaintance. I must tell you, it has been quite a while since we've had our last guest. A quite one, that one was. But we are not here to discuss about him. We are here to discuss about you, and the contract in which you have be bounded to."

"Velvet Room? Contract? Just what's going on? What is this place and why am I here? I'm sure I was sleeping in my bed earlier…" the russet-haired girl's voice trailed off and Igor gave a chuckle.

"Please, ease yourself. I shall tell you," he said, his bony, gloved hands displaying the room before him. "This room we are in, as I have said before, is called the Velvet Room. This place exists between dream and reality, mind and matter. Only those who are bound to a certain 'contract' are able to enter here. And it seems that, that 'contract' has come to bring you here." he said. He then looked to Makiko. "Now then… will you please introduce yourself?" he asked. Makiko cleared her dry throat.

"Ma-Makiko Huratana." she said, her heat beating like a hummingbird's wings.

"Hm… an interesting name, indeed." said Igor with a nod. "Now, lets take a look into your future, shall we?" he asked, suddenly swiping his hand against the surface of the table before nine cards appeared. Makiko blinked in bewilderment, never seeing that kind of magic trick before.

"Do you believe in fortune telling?" asked Igor, has hand ghosting over the cards. The one-eye-blinded girl gave a small shrug.

"I've heard of it but I've never given it much thought. It sounds interesting, though." she said, the subject of superstition never occurring to her.

"Indeed it is. Each reading is done with the same cards, yet the result is always different." said the old man.

"That's almost like life. We're all born the same way, but our lives and futures lead and end in different ways." said Makiko, tugging lightly on the red and pink bundles in her hair. Igor gave a hum in agreement and he flipped over one f the cards.

"Ah, it seems that the first card is the Ace of Spades, meaning that misfortune is soon to come, and you will encounter a difficult ending in the near future." said the old man with a shake of his head. Makiko gulped and she gripped the armrest of the couch slightly. Igor gave another one of his creepy smiles and he flipped three more cards.

"These cards are quite the trio. The first is the Four of Hearts, meaning of travel. A journey is about to bestow upon you. The second card is the Five of Clubs, meaning new friendships and alliances. And the last card is of the Nine of Hearts. This card represents wishes, and it also means that the dreams that you will encounter are meant to become reality." said Igor as he swiped his hand again and the cards vanished.

"So, now we must place your future together, piece by piece. It seems that in the coming future, a great misfortune will occur, and it will be up to you to find it's source and fixed the problem at the root of it before all is lost. By the power of your contract, you will be placed on a journey of infinite possibilities. On this journey, you will form bonds with those around you and those bonds will lead you one step closer into stopping the misfortune of the future. And within those bonds, broken dreams and lost wishes will be revealed to you, and it would be up to you, and only you, to make those dreams a reality." said the white-haired man with a nod.

"N… No way…" whispered Makiko, shaking all over. All of this was washing over her like cold water and yet, that unpleasant shiver that ran up her spine felt exciting. What was this wave of excitement? Was it that of importance?

Dreams turned into reality, huh?

"I've never heard anything that absurd. My Tousan and Okaasan told me that if I've dreamed too much, reality would just leave me behind." said the rust-haired girl.

"That may be true, but what do you think of this place? Believe it or not, this place was created by you. So would it still be dream, even if we are in it presently?" asked Igor with a raised brow. Makiko cast her eyes down, unable to answer that question, before looking back and shrugging.

"There is still more to tell. In the days that are to come, the misfortune that is to occur will effect not only you, but those around you. And if we allow this misfortune to commence, your future, and all of those that are closest to you, will be lost forever. It is my job to provide assistance to out guests, so that, that calamity will not happen." he said, nodding. He then snapped his fingers lightly.

"Ah yes. I forgotten that we are not the only two on this flight," he said. He first pointed to the blonde man. "This is Klaus, my assistant. He shall be helping us as well." he said. Klaus gave a calm smile with a bow of his head.

"Please to meet you." he said. Igor then motioned to the piano player.

"And this is our newest addition. He has no name, but he does respond to a name. Conductor," he said. Conductor paused at his notes, giving a small nod without lifting his hood, and began playing Mediation de Thais by Yo-Yo Ma.

"He always plays classical. I suggest you start listening to some as well." Igor turned to Makiko with a small wave of his hand.

"We will discuss more on these matters later. Until then, farewell." he said. Makiko gasped as she felt white spots surround her eye sight and she reached for nothing but air. Soon, she blacked out again, the last notes of Conductor's song playing.


"Maki-san! Maki-san, calm down!"

She was struggling again and her throat felt raw and stuffed. Something cool and circular incased her lips and Makiko panic stroked more.

"Maki-san, just take deep breaths. Slow and easy. Yes, that's it. Just keep doing that. Calm down."

Makiko blinked like an owl and she took a few more breaths through her inhaler before pushing it away and breathing without it. She was still in Kimi's room with McMahon standing next to her with her inhaler in his hand. The girl saw that the clock wall read 2:00 AM. McMahon gave her a worried look.

"Are you alright, Maki-san? Kimi-san had just awoke me and told me you were having a panic attack in your sleep. Did you have a nightmare?" asked her male companion. Makiko shook her head and closed her eyes.

'It… that wasn't a nightmare. It felt more… like a dream. Something that I didn't want to wake up from. But why did it seem so real? Was it really a dream? And why did I have a panic attack? I didn't have one since a month ago. Though, the doctors did say they're were going to be chances that I would have a few of them, even after I got better. Ugh, my head hurts.'

"I'm… fine, Mr. McMahon. I must've been sleeping too hard on my bruise and that could have triggered my panic attack. It was only a little one so I'll be alright." she said with a nod. McMahon still looked skeptical.

"Yes, that could be the case. Would you care for me to stay here until you fall asleep?" he asked. Makiko looked at her lap and tapped her fingers against her thigh. She did want to go to sleep, but with someone watching her did freak her out. Even if it was McMahon, who had been a friend of her parents since their days in middle school.

"He always plays classical. I suggest you start listening to some as well."

"Actually, could you hand me my Ipod? I think some music will help me fall asleep." she said. McMahon nodded and he found Makiko's small bag containing her Ipod and headphones.

"Just no rock or heavy metal, yes?" asked the black-haired man, handing the silver item. Makiko nodded and she said goodnight to the man before the lights were out, Kimi giving a tired 'goodnight' from her bunk. Makiko placed her earbuds in her ears and she decided to listen to a few violin songs. Nestling her head to her pillow, the party blind girl's eyes dropped like a hound dog's before she lulled to sleep, her dreams now filled with the soft plucking and humming of violins.
