Persona 5 Royal

Interrogation

       In the long hallway walked this woman, she is a tall woman with upper-back length ashen brown hair that is asymmetrically parted on the left right side and brown eyes that are sometimes depicted with a hint of mauve red. She wore a black business suit with a black turtleneck. Her blazer's cuffs and the lower part have clamshell-like designs. Accessory-wise, she wears a necklace of section sign (§) which references her judicial occupation (it also appears in the top right of Shujin Academy's emblem), earrings and a few dark hair clips can be seen above her right ear. She has violet fingernails and wears black high heels. She is sometimes seen with a smartphone and a black bag slung over her shoulder, but she got stopped "Excuse me, but this area's off..." said the Police Detective but he got cut off by the business woman, "I'm Niijima from the Public Prosecutor's Office." said Niijima "The Prosecutor's Office? What business do you have here?" the Police Detective said as he crossed his arms. "Just let me through; it's urgent. There's something I need to confirm with the suspect." said Niijima "Niijima-san, I believe this case is no longer in your jurisdiction. Besides..." said the Police Detective but then this older looking men walked behind Niijima, "Are you Prosecutor Sae Niijima?" asked the Older Detective as Sae turned around, "I just got off the phone with your director. Hurry and get it over with. To be frank, you're being an inconvenience." said the Older Detective then Sae's phone rang so she got out her phone and answer the call, "I thought I ordered you to stand by." sighed the SIU Director's voice. "I'm responsible for this case, et I'm not even being allowed an interrogation!?" asked Sae "I'm calling because I knew you'd bring it up." "I will not be convinced unless I confirm it for myself. This is MY case." she yelled he sighed, "Good luck to you then. I won't be expecting much though..." he said as she hung up and putted her phone away. "Ah, Prosecutor. I forgot to mention something important. Your time will be cut short. We can't permit you to talk with him for long." said the Older Detective. Sae looked at the ground as she sighed, "It's for your own sake. His methods are unknown. After all, we don't even know if it's safe to simply meet and speak with him." he said "...I understand." she said as she walked to the door. She entered the room where it was only a table and two chairs, one sat was Ren, and her Sae, she sat down as she crossed her arms "...I didn't expect it'd be you. You'll be answering my questions this time." she looked around, "They didn't..." then looked back at Ren, "Can you hear me? It seems you've been through a lot. Almost anything can happen here... and I can't stop them. That's why I need you to answer me honestly. I don't have much time earthier. What was your objective? Why did you cause such a major incident? I didn't think it was prank from the get-go, but couldn't assemble a case for prosecution. It's because I couldn't figure out the method behind it." said Sae "Why do you want to know?" asked Ren "This isn't an issue of whether or not it can be used in court. I need to know. This is my case, after all. It seems you're coherent. When and where did you find out about that world? How is it even possible to steal another's heart? Now, tell me your account of everything... Start from the very beginning." said Sae as Ren placed his one hand on top of his head. Then, the room began to be dark but a little light shine on him, then a crystal clear blue butterfly flied to him "...You are held captive. A prisoner of fate to a future that has been sealed in advance. This is truly an unjust game... Your chance of winning are almost none. But if my voice is reaching you, there may yet be a possibility open to you... I beg you. Please overcome this game... and save the world... The key to victory lies within the memories of your bonds—the truth that you and your friends grasped. It all began that day... when the game was started half a year ago... For the sake of your world's future... as well as your own... you must remember..." said this mysterious voice as he looked at Sae.

       In an year ago Ren woke up still in the train going home from school, "I must overslept again..." he thought to himself as he looked at everyone on the train, everything was a the same, the same day at school no friends, the same day at Leblanc working for his dad and same old him. "What? Are you for real? A mental shutdown?" asked an Shujin student "It's the truth!" said her friend "To a person thought? That's gotta be a joke. You really love all that occult stuff, don't you?" It was the always same the topic on the train, the mental shutdowns, he was walking to cross walk with his phone on while listening to music he took a look at the view, "same thing..." he though to himself as all of the people of Shibuya was walking he was going to switch song until he spotted this wired app on his phone, it was red and black on it and had an eye he was confused so he touched the icon couple times but it never open but suddenly all of the people slowed down and froze in front of his eyes, he looked around him as the whole Shibuya was frozen then he saw this light blue flame appeared in front of him the flame took shape as this tall liking person with wings of a sort he looked at it then it had reddish orange eyes and a smile then he saw himself with yellow eyes then all of the people were back walking now Ren was shocked but confuse in the same time. He pulled his phone again then saw the wired app then he drag the app into the trash, Ren was confuse as he walked home "What was that app? How did it get in my phone? And was that wired looking thing looking at me?" he asked himself as he walked inside Leblanc. He walked in was he saw that his father only had two customer Ren looked at the tv, "A public transit bus was driven down an opposing lane with its customers still in it! The citizens can't live in peace if this keeps up." said the Tabloid Show Host. "How frightening." said the elderly male customer "What could be going on? Didn't something similar happen just the other day?" asked the elderly female customer then Ren saw his dad, sitting on the chairs doing is crossword on the newspaper, he was a middle-aged man, he has slicked-back dark hair with a receding hairline, gray eyes, a chinstrap beard with a goatee that flares out and wears glasses. He wore the usual outfit for working, pale pink dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up, pale khakis held up with a white leather belt and white loafers. He wore a black apron with a white pinstripe design on it and has his pants legs folded up to mid calf. "And down is... the name of a shellfish used in pearl farming..." he said to himself. Ren walked up to his father, "...Oh, back early again?" he asked "We'll be going now. The payment's on the table, Sojiro." said the elderly male as he and his wife and up from the table, "Thanks for coming" said Sojiro "This place is in the back ally, so there's no worries of a car crashing in here." said the elderly male Sojiro looked at him all confused, "A what now?" he asked "There's been a string of those rampage accidents, you know. I just hope that none happen around here." concerned the elderly male "It's none of my concern." said Sojiro as he walked to the table and grabbed the payment the couples. "Haha, we'll see you next time." said the elderly male as they walked out of Leblanc, "...Four hours for just a single cup of joe." said Sojiro, "Ya I know," said Ren as he sat down on the chair Sojiro looked at Ren, "Have you made any friends yet?" he asked Ren left his glasses up, "No, but how is she dad?" he asked "She's doing good, but still in her room, sadly..." said Sojiro as he cleaned the kitchen up Ren got up and helped his father in the kitchen as he looked at his father then reflected on his sister he has to do something he can't be like her he has to do something starting tomorrow. After helping out Ren walk upstairs to his room and grabbed his pjs. As he came back form the bathroom then he lay down on his bed, "Tomorrow will be the same thing, it always been." sighed Ren as he was about to go to sleep until his phone rang, he pulled out his phone and saw that weird app again "Hm?! It's that weird app again it somehow ended up on my phone... the icon looks almost like an eye...but I thought I deleted it!" he said as he once again delete the app and putted his phone down as he stared the wall thinking about tomorrow his eyelids starting to get heavy as he fell asleep.
