Persona 3 protagonist

It was the 6th April. I was in the New City passenger train, Anehazuru, on my way to a school I had transferred to. I had just been woken up by the train's announcement.

"Due to a malfunction in the switching system, today's rail schedule has been greatly altered. We apologise for any customers who were in a hurry. The next stop is Iwatodai."

As a result, the train ended up coming in late.

"Iwatodai. This is the final train bound for Tatsumi Port Island. Please take care to board before our departure."

I had arrived late. It was almost midnight. I don't know how to put it into words, really. I'm not much of a writer. Something about the atmosphere seemed odd. It would probably be best to hurry to the dorm.

As I walked from the station, I looked around to see coffin like objects lining in the deserted city. The moon was eerily gigantic tonight. I arrived at Gekkoukan High School, Iwatodai dorm. It was the dorm mentioned in the admission pamphlet. As I stepped I the heard a voice.

"Welcome," a boy my own age said. "You're late. I've been waiting a long time for you. Now if you want to proceed, please sign your name there."

He gestured to the guestbook.

"It's a contract," he said. "Don't worry. All it says is that you'll accept full responsibly for your actions. You know, the usual stuff."

Something was written on the guestbook.

"I choseth this fate of mine own free will."

Below was a blank to sign my name in.

I wrote down "John Doe".

"Very well," the boy said. "No one can escape time. It delivers us all to the very same end. You can't plug your ears and cover your eyes. And so it begins."

The boy disappeared as though he melted into the darkness.

"Who's there!?" I heard a female voice ask.

I saw a brunette girl walk into the room, "How can you be... But it's...! Don't tell me."

The girl was holding a gun.

"Wait!" said another girl, a redhead.

The lights came on.

"The lights," the first girl said.

"I didn't think you'd arrive so late," the redheaded girl told me. "My name is Mitsuru Kirijo. I'm one of the students who live in this dorm."

"Who's he?" the brunette girl asked.

"He's a transfer student. It was a last minute decision to assign him here. He'll eventually be moved to a room in the boys' dorm." Mitsuru explained.

"Is it okay for him to be here?" Yukari questioned.

"I guess we'll see. This is Yukari Takeba." Mitsuru said.

"Hi, I'm Yukari." the brunette said.

Why does Yukari have a gun? It is a toy? Is there some kinda toy gun fad around here? Maybe she's just a freak.

"Is this the girl's dorm?" I asked her.

"No, it's not but... um... How should I explain this?"

"Unlike the other buildings, this one's co-ed," Mitsuru explained. "It's your typical building though. I'll explain it to you later when I get a chance. It's getting late so you should get some rest. Your room is on the second floor, at the end of the hallway. Your things should already be there."

"Oh, I'll show you the way. Follow me." Yukari said.

Yukari took me to the furtherest door on the second floor hallway. Hopefully the transfer to the boys' dorm will go through soon enough. Don't get me wrong, I like girls but I was still unnerved by Yukari's gun.

"This is it," she said. "Pretty easy to remember, huh? Since it's right at the end of the hall. Oh yeah, make sure you don't lose your key or you'll never hear the end of it. So, any questions?"

The one that was eating my mind was who exactly that guy with the contract was.

"Does that boy live here?" I asked.

"What boy? What are you talking about?" Yukari asked. "C'mon, it's not funny."

Yukari didn't seem to know what I was talking about. Now she thinks I'm crazy. I'm already off to a great start.

"Um, can I ask you something?" she asked. "On your way here from the station, was everything okay?"

Well, no, everything turned green and coffin-y but I couldn't tell her that when she already thinks I'm crazy so I played dumb.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"You know what I... Nevermind. It seems like you're alright. Well, I'd better get going. Um... I'm sure you still have other questions but let's save them for later, okay? Good night."

Well, yeah, like that question about the whole gun thing but whatever. Yukari walked down the stairs. I went into my room and hit the sack pretty soon after. I figured I was just seeing things because I was tired. I had looked forward to be getting some sleep anyway. Tomorrow I'd see what my brand new school was like. I changed into my PJs and went to sleep.
