Life at Windian High (Part 2)




"I'll see you when I get home, mom! Take care, Neko-Chan!" Frank said as he exited the Reverse Edge. The Persona User was running late, so he was skateboarding to school that day.

"Myah...there he goes again..." Neko-Chan said with a sigh.

Jess looked at the Nekomata. "You really miss him when he leaves, don't you?"

"I do, meow... He's kinda like a sibling to me, purr... Jess, he saved me from death..." Neko-Chan said quietly as her two tails began to wave as slow as they could.

"I understand Neko-Chan... when Frank brought you here, I was overjoyed... first Frank came into my life, and now you." The woren said with a smile. "Listen, why don't you go upstairs and rest? Frank will be back this afternoon."

Neko-Chan nodded and made her way to the room that she and Frank shared. The catgirl yawned and was about to sprawl out on her bed when something shiny caught her eye.

"Shiny... meow!" Neko-Chan said as she made her way to a book on Frank's desk. Immediately, she saw the light glint off a metal clasp.

"Meow? What's this?" She said as she picked up the book. "Myah... Frank's Journal... What's a journal?" The Nekomata made her way to Frank's bed and sat down on it crosslegged, curling her tails around her. Neko-Chan undid the clasp and opened the book.

"Myah... this is Frank's handwriting..." She said quietly. The curious catgirl began to read the first entry in the book.

It all began on a normal school day back in Lunarvale... my hometown. Isn't that how things always begin? If anyone is reading this later down the line, maybe I'm famous... maybe I've passed on... Well anyway, this is my story...

To be honest, I'm not from this world, or to be more specific, this dimension. I'm from Earth, where technology is rampant, and magic and other races, like Woren, Windians, Forest, Blacksmith, Grassrunner, Dragon, Highlander, and Grass are non-existent. Scratch that. After the SEBEC Scandal and the Snow Queen Incident, there are now minor demons that roam the streets of Lunarvale. Thankfully, they're friendly. In fact, one lives with me. She's a Nekomata demoness that I took in after Alex Brandshire and I saved her. I wasn't going to abandon her... She's a friend... and a sibling. Her name is Neko-Chan.

"Meow... these are his memories... Purr... he mentioned me in here..." The demoness continued to read out of Frank's journal.

As for magic... Remember what I said before about it being non-existent on Earth? Not anymore... See, my friends and I were given a gift from a god named Philemon, so we could save our world. I'm a Persona User, and I'm proud of it.

Personae are the souls of former gods and ancient beings and/or heroes. For some odd reason, I've been blessed with the heroes from this world... Ryu the third is my main Persona... Princess Nina Winlan from the first destined cycle has also called to me... My ultimate Persona is Katt Chuan, and I also have Rei Chiba within me. Maybe I should mention that Rei Chiba is the ancestor of my best friend, Ryan Chiba.

Why am I here? I've got my reasons... so far, Nate Trinity, Ellen Johnson, and I are here in Windia. Nate won't go home because of his family. Ellen's staying because she's in love with another friend of mine... That, and she is still trying to figure out what had happened to her parents. Me... how can I put it...

Okay... pull yourself together, man. Better... I've... got nowhere to go... on a search for the Diamond of Truth, so I could get some answers... I saw everything... Guido Sardenia... that BASTARD! He murdered mom... and dad... in cold blood...

I promised myself I wouldn't cry... But I can't help it. I miss them both. He destroyed my life completely...

At least... Kate... I met her when I first arrived in Windia... I saved her life from a possessed Windian noble that wanted to kill her and sell her skin... As time passed, we grew on each other... I admitted my feelings to her when we were in the coliseum. Honestly, since coming to Windia, Kate's the best person who could have come into my life. She's there for me...

Honestly? Kate makes me whole. She's the piece of the puzzle that finally completes me. It's just... I don't know how to describe it. One day... If I can, I'll take her to see some of the sights back home... She'd enjoy Funworld...

Since I've met Kate, I've had many things happen to me in Windia... Finding out about my parents is one thing... Ellen and Nate coming here has also been a great event. I've also nearly been killed by an insane witch named Sree, because I killed Redwing... Did I mention that by doing that, I also avenged Kate's mom?

I've also been adopted by Jess Rorins. That's a story in itself. She found some of Sree's thugs beating the crap out of me... Thanks to Jess and Ryan, I survived. Maria Avalon (A guard Kate, Tellka, and I saved in the coliseum), booked the thugs and returned the favor to me. That's when she found out about me, my Persona, and where I came from... Katt emerged from my soul and asked them to help me...

That's my life so far... This is my first journal entry. See, I just got back from Lunarvale. Some of my friends and I were pulled back to help my old teacher, who was possessed by the Snow Queen. It's really late now, and I need some rest. Tonight, I sleep on a cot, since Neko-Chan is curled up on my bed. I don't mind, she needs the bed right now. I'll write tomorrow.

Frank Maynard

I just realized I don't know the exact date and year... I'll have to find them sometime.

"Myah..." Neko-Chan said quietly. "Frank's been through a lot... How..."

The catgirl closed the journal and placed it back on his desk, making sure that it was the same way it was when she picked it up.

"Meow... I'll continue to read more tomorrow... Purr... I need a cat-nap..."

Neko-Chan hopped into her bed and immediately fell asleep as she thought about Frank.

"Purr... he is a good person..." She said before letting sleep overwhelm her.
