April 4, 2011: Old School Veterans
Who: Junpei, Minato, and Yukari.
What: An unexpected reunion brings up more questions than answers!
When: Monday, April 4, 2011, the first day of school.
Where: Entrance to Bikanhigure High.
The morning of the first day at a new school gave off an anticipatory feeling. Clear skies and blooming trees promised a beautiful spring day where anything could happen. Actually, the city of Hirosaka gave off that sense in general: of endless possibilities, which could either be refreshing or stifling depending on how one felt about that.
While the entrance of Bikanhigure loomed above her, Yukari rested on a bench outside and stared at a brochure for Asahikage that was held loosely in her hand. It was part of her "cover" to be a transfer student who was interested in one day attending this "rising star" of a university, but right then, her interest couldn't be any more nonexistent. When your job is to hunt Shadows and prevent the Fall from happening, school in general seemed not so very important any more. She had just sacrificed her first year of college, and it was nothing compared to what he had sacrificed, so why not just give school up entirely?
And yet it was important, because there was still that future to attend to. Now that new Persona users had appeared, that future was more evident than ever and more than ever important to protect. That thought gave Yukari a burst of determination, and increased her desire to uncover the truth that Hirosaka concealed.
As she stood up, she thought, 'After all, my promise to him and to everyone is my reason for living, not my excuse for giving up.'
