《Persona 6: Fanmade redone!》Chapter 21: You don't know me

Advertisement

Suki had been trying all day to get Anzu alone, but was proven unsuccessful due to their very different schedules. After school was her last shot to get her to listen, or at least find her in time, and maybe get a date that was important to her.

Suki watched from the corner as the last of the first years left, but Anzu was nowhere to be seen.

Had she left early...? Wait...there she is!

Suki spotted the young girl with the black turtle neck sweater and the long flowing dark blue skirt that almost reached down to her ankles as she escaped through a different door. She followed her from a distance as she managed to go unnoticed by many of her fellow classmates.

Once Anzu was finally outside and heading for the street corner, Suki decided to engage.

"H-hey! Ayako-Chan!" She called.

Anzu turned around, a bit confused, for she had never met Suki. "Uhhh...hey? Do I know you?" She asked.

Suki shook her head. "N-no, um...My name is Suki. Suki Ichika. I'm a second year-just transferred here a few days ago!"

Anzu continued to look at her, now with a look that someone gives another when they think they're crazy. "Uhh...okay?"

Why the hell she telling me this? Anzu wondered.

Suki smiled nervously. "Hehe...anyways. There is something I need to talk to you about. Right now."

"S-sorry, but I'm kinda in a hurry here-" Anzu explained, beginning to walk away.

"Please! It's about your health! You're in danger, Anzu!"

Anzu stopped dead in her tracks.

Great...another one of these assholes.

"So you've basically just come to shit on me for my schizophrenia like everyone else, huh?" Anzu growled.

"What? No! I wouldn't-I'm talking about you're bleeding-!"

"You sick-! FUCKING PERIOD JOKES?! Real fucking civil."

"NO! I MEAN YOU'RE WOUNDS! YOUR CUTS! YOUR NOSE! I'M TALKING ABOUT THAT BLEEDING! I KNOW!"

Anzu gritted her teeth, her eyes wide. She took a defensive stance. "How did you know about ?"

"Well, you pretty much told me-"

"No. Before idiot. How did you know about it before?"

Suki was quiet for a minute before speaking.

"I'm what they call a sleuth. This is just what I do to help others..." She finally explained.

Anzu's fists shook as she relaxed and stepped into a normal state, crossing her arms. "You have five minutes to explain."

"That's all I need."

Suki reached into her pocket and pulled out her small green notebook, flipping through some pages before reaching five light blue pages.

"You've done this before?" Anzu asked.

Suki nodded. "This is somewhat of a hobby I have."

Anzu rolled her eyes. "Just get on with it."

"Right. Sorry. Look, for one thing, you are in grave danger. I have experienced it first hand with Isas-Kun."

Anzu looked up in curiosity. "Isas-Kun...? You mean what happened with him at the assembly?"

Suki nodded. "Yes....look, if I try and tell you everything that happened with Isas, you will very likely think I am insane-"

"I already think you're insane. You fucking followed me out her with no goddamn reason to ramble about nothing!" Anzu exclaimed.

"Anzu, please, listen to reason-"

"NO! You listen to me, Ichika-San! I am done with people like you. People who preach that they can help me only to throw me away! Cast me out into the storm and let me drown into the sea! I hate the beings who think they know what it's like to me! No one knows what it's like to be me! They don't know me, and you for sure don't know shit about me!"

Anzu's cold blue eyes suddenly changed to a burning yellow as tears streamed down her cheeks, her nose beginning to bleed and her body shaking.

She turned her head away. "D-don't pretend to care about me...I've accepted that no one treats me like how they treat their friends or their kids."

"Are you saying...that Deviant hurts you-?"

Anzu suddenly grabbed Suki's wrist tightly, crushing her bone.

"D-don't you EVER talk shit about Deviant! He may not give a damn about me, but at least he damn well tries!"

Anzu's angered expression dropped as she felt her wrists begin to bleed as well. She let go of Suki's wrist and quickly fled the scene.

"You don't know me...not even close." She muttered as she rushed away.

Suki sighed. Well that went horribly....

Late at Night

Isas was up late on his laptop, learning new ways of handling his rapier when he heard the door to his room creak open. He assumed it was Chiyoko waking up from a nightmare or just to scared to sleep, only to turn and see that it was Yasahiro.

"I-Isas?" Yasahiro whimpered like a small child, tears in his eyes.

Isas, concerned, stood from his desk and quickly made his way to him, pulling him in for a hug like he would Chiyoko.

"Is something wrong? Why are you crying?" He asked in a hushed voice.

Yasahiro let out a small cry as he buried his head in his chest. "I-I don't want to be alone...I-it's scary!!"

Isas chuckled as he stroke Yasahiro's hair. "It's okay...if you would like, you are allowed to stay with me for the night."

Yasahiro looked up with a smile. "R-really?"

Isas nodded. "Sure, why not?"

Yasahiro squealed and hugged Isas tightly. He chuckled as Yasahiro let go and jumped into Isas' bed as Isas returned to work.

"What are you doing?" Yasahiro asked with curiosity.

"Just bookmarking a few things is all. Trying to handle my swordsman ship a bit more."

"Ohhh. How interesting!"

"I suppose it is...." He yawned.

"...Isas? May I ask you something?"

"Of course, what is it?"

"Mnh...why was Eko-Chan so upset earlier?"

"Oh...that. Right....well, you see Yasahiro, Jumin was upset because...Anzu was hurting herself. Badly."

Yasahiro gasped, sitting up. "But why?!"

Isas sighed. "I...I don't know why...I cannot imagine why someone would do that to themselves...and neither could Jumin. And he is quite sensitive to these certain topics, so hearing this...is quite heartbreaking and almost gut wrenching."

"So...what do we do...?"

Isas was quite for a moment before he stood up, a hopeful smile crossing his face. "We fight to help her. We fight to save her. It is what we must do....it is what we will do. All for her. And for everyone."

Yasahiro grinned. "Yeah! Like heroes!"

Isas smiled warmly as he yawned again, trying to rub the sleep out of his eyes.

"You should sleep, Isas-Kun." Yasahiro said.

Isas sighed as he closed his laptop. "I suppose you're right...it is getting late."

Isas stumbled through the dark, unable to see. Yasahiro climbed out of bed and took Isas by the hand, taking off his glasses with the other hand and placed them on the bedside table. Isas sighed in defeat.

"I-it's okay, Isas-Kun. I know it's because of your vision." Yasahiro stated.

"I just feel...weaker now. As if I do not have thick skin as I used to..."

Yasahiro shook his head. "You're strong on the inside and out! Even the cute freckles on your tummy are threatening!"

Isas chuckled. "Yes I suppose-wait, you...have seen my freckles? On my stomach? When?"

"When you step out of the shower."

"....l-let's just go to sleep."

Yasahiro nodded as he crawled into bed, with Isas following him after, turning to his side and falling asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.

But it would soon prove a restless night for the both of them pretty soon.
