So.This is where it ends?(Akina)

Akina walked to the park as quickly as possible. God, so much had been going on lately Akina wasn't sure what to think at all. She had been a little bothered today by a certain dream, and then Nozomi decided to ask her to go to the park. That...couldn't be a coincidence. Could it? Did he have it too? She had been wondering all day if it had just been a weird dream, her brain reacting weirdly to everything she'd been through, but there was no way. The dream...it felt too surreal for that.

Could they really end this? Now, of all times? It kind of felt like everything was just kind of crashing down. Like whatever was actually going on was nearing it's end. But maybe that was just her. Akina was kind of worried about that though. As she arrived to the park, she saw her friend sitting there and wasted no time in approaching him.

"Hey Nozomi," She greeted. It had been a bit since she came to the park like this, but she could dwell on that later.

Oh finally. As Nozomi was lieing back in the park bench. his best friend had finally arrived. Damn would he be overjoyed at the news he had for her,but first. he had to take this a little well... Slowly you know? Hey Akina... Did you have some weird dream lately? I had the weirdest goddamn one lately. In a nutshell. Some woman was speaking about how we can well....End all of this...

Now you may or may not believe this akina but...He would trail off as well. The next part of his sentence was shocking him on the inside. It was something to celebrate but also ponder seriously.



Have you...Felt any different lately as well?Jesus christ that dream was beyond trippy.

Her eyes widened at the sudden mention of the dream. Oh Christ. Akina was right. Nozomi did have something weird with dreams going on as well. "Well, uh...yeah. Actually..." She looked at him, expression something between confusion and relief. "I...had the same dream. As you did."

"I believe it..." She paused. It was true that dream had brought on a lot of odd feelings inside her. "You're right! I think...it really is gone! Israfel..." She wasn't sure how to react to this at all. It was good, I mean considering this is pretty much what the two wanted to happen. "I mean, that's good, yeah? I mean seriously. But...just like that? That's just..." She trailed off. It was clear she was kind of confused at this whole thing. Yes, it was good, but...

"Have I felt different? Well...yeah," She said with a sigh, plopping down next to her friend where he was sitting. "Though I can't really explain it, it's just...weird. What is even happening anymore? That dream...you're right. Trippy, yeah."

Wow so that settle it then... i guesss... I guess we are free then Akina.What was this?All of a sudden? That mean't the dream they had was coming true. That mean everything was coming to an end no? That it was all gearing down torwards this.... Final countdown of sorts it appears.

Fantastic. That means. This is all coming down to the end of it all akina.... I don't know what the hell is going on at that radio tower, but either us Or someone else has to go over there and put an end to this event.... We cant just dilly dally around. IF WE don't act. Then everyones screwed over and the event will just. Come back later. We cant possibly have that happen!He would say with emphasis towards akina. Damn was this getting pretty ridiculous. What could they make of it now. of what was going on. What was going to be the fate of their world? What were they supposed to do now? So many questions raced inside of Nozomis mind.So let's look at the brightside of all of this. We fixed everything up nearly. We got to get rid of israfels influence within us for free like this was some damn discount bargain bin deal. And now. Shit. We got this to worry about...

She nodded. "I guess so..." Israfel's influence being gone was a good thing, that was undeniable. While being grateful of that, there was still a downside. All that brought along was more to actually deal with, didn't it? "It's good that he's gone I guess. Least we don't have to worry about that anymore."

"Haha, it's almost like we just dropped one thing to worry about for something bigger," She sighed. "I...guess it is all ending, huh? You're right about going, I don't think letting this happen all over again is such a good idea. I'd hate for that to happen, this Event happening once is already more than enough." Akina looked at the ground in thought before speaking up again. "So...are we going to go? To the tower to finally end this, like the woman in the dream said we could? I mean, it sounds like it's dangerous but like you said everyone would be screwed if no one does anything. What does that leave us to do?"

Akina had lots of questions as well. "To actually just go ourselves...? Would that...go well?" It was also pretty clear she was unsure of what to do either. Though, in this kind of situation, who wouldn't feel like this? It wasn't like this was easy. This was rather important, after all. The fate of many things, even the world was dependent on what would happen and how this would go. That was kind of nerve-wracking. This was clearly no joke, Akina got that much. "I...don't know."

Yeah. I really guess so too...Finally. They were free atlast. Though that mean't... Things were pretty bad now it appeared right?It was all about to come crashing down nearly.Yeah Akina. We really gotta stop all of this. So Nobody else ever has to go through this shit again damnit! Look at all the stuff that's been happening and frankly. I want to be able to get rid of israfel as well in the future.... Damn him. We really need to take action. Though. I theorize that when we proceed to leave. We will probably meet other people there. It sounds stupid I know,but it's better than nothing.

Wow. Ha. Look at how far they've come Nozomi would think to himself. He really could not believe it. He remembred when he had just moved over to Azores and now well....

Now he was potentially helping to save Azores. The last thing he expected to ever really end up doing.You know Akina....It's funny. We ended up... Coming so far you know? Despite it all. We grew to have to deal with all of this and progressed so far.... Man I remember when I was first moving to Azores you know?I can't believe it haha. We did it. Now...Now all thats left to do was just... Put a stop to it.

"A lot has been happening...and I wouldn't want anyone else to have to go through it again like we did. That would be kind of pointless...and it would suck..." What if this did happen again, but it ended worse than it did this time? They had been trying to stop this this whole time, and now that they could themselves, there was no way they could not do it and let this all happen again. If they did that, all the work they did would have been pointless, wouldn't it? "Well, if other people are there I guess I'd feel a little better that way, because at least we wouldn't be alone during a probably hard battle," Akina said, shrugging slightly. It was true. She could tell even now that this wasn't going to be easy. But she really wasn't expecting it to be in the first place. This was the end, after all.

The end...huh? Thinking about that now felt odd. She could too remember the beginning of this all and all that had happened to her and her friends. It really was...unbelievable. Doing things like fighting shadows and potentially saving the world were not things Akina expected to be doing, let alone getting a persona in the first place. Though, whether she liked it or not, it all happened anyway.

"Coming so far...?" Akina would repeat the question as she pondered the thought a little more. So much had happened in what felt like a small amount of time. "Haha, yeah. I know what you mean. I can remember back when all I really did was wander around and stuff. And then I met all of you, and now everything's much different than it was. But I think it's a good different. So yeah, we have to finally stop it. We've reached this far, and we can't exactly just stop here, can we?" She nodded. They had sure come a long way to get here. That was easy to see now. Thinking about it felt weird, maybe a little nostalgic, but it was still true.

You know everything passes by. You ever thought about what you wanted to do when this was all over?Ha. To be honest. I barely know what I'm gonna do after this is over.The Kichida would say shrugging slightly looking down on the ground for a moment. Nozomi was rather unsure of what he was going to do right now with himself. He had alot on his plate right now to deal with.....And not in a good way. In a sense this brought him back to his motivation about why he was truly determined to end all of this.What keeps you going Akina?He'd throw the question into the air almost at her. Hey it was worth asking. Nozomi himself was rather strong in his own convinction and determination. Though he wondered what was going through akina's mind in the first place.

You know I wonder who that woman is. Seriously. The one supposedly behind all this or atleast telling us to confront her to put an end to all of it. Like come on... I hate this whole thing. All it seems to do is turn everyone against each other nearly I'm guessing. I heard things have been getting chaotic lately too. Supposedly one of the primordials appeared at Zela. Killed alot of people apparently before he got put down by a few persona users like us. It's nice to see other people are taking their stand in the world you know?Just like we're taking ours in this world. Really though when you think about it. Everyone's fighting their own battles at this point. Either within or on the outside. As with well... That ananke situation a friend told me about. Supposedly he mutated into a giant damn bird. Pretty freaky huh?The ananke incident hadn't exactly been reported upon much. So hey. He'd take the time right now to might as well inform Akina of it while they were in the midst of discussing this.

I hope one day we can actually see israfel agian. So we can just kick his ass and prove him wrong. Someone that extreme with their ideas doesn't deserve to live. Atleast that's me. Sorry if that seems to be going over the edge with it.What? He really did dislike the angel at this point or from what he had heard. Most of them.

"Uh..." She'd ponder the question for a moment. What did she want to do? "After all this is over, huh...I guess I haven't thought about it much. I mean, so much has been happening...it's kind of hard to think about it now or give a straight answer. So I think...I'm not sure for me either." Akina would shrug as well, frowning slightly. It was a lot to think about. Honestly, all this had been going on for what felt like forever to the point where it felt like it would never end. Now that it was...well, to be honest, Akina was absolutely freaking lost.

"Well..." She'd trail off, once again thinking hard. Her fists clenched slightly. "I guess...I'm pretty sure what keeps me going is you...guys. My friends, family surprisingly enough, and even the people I don't know very well. I...want to end all of this already because I guess I...just want us all to be able to live peacefully, you know? Freely. Without the threat of us all dying or the world being recreated or taken over in a way that would suck for the people in it. And I sure as hell wouldn't want this all to repeat for more people to have to deal with it like us." She finished with a sigh, looking down as well. "I probably wouldn't have gotten this far or kept going without you and Vince and Trem and, well, I don't know, all the people I met. It sort of kept me...motivated I guess you can say." It felt kind of weird saying these things. Sure, it was true, but she never really took the time to ponder this kind of thing. "That probably sounded kind of...dumb. I don't know, explaining has never really been my thing, haha..."

"Yeah...I don't like it either, but I guess it kind of has to happen. And oh, really? Dang. A giant bird...wow. But putting that part aside...you're right about that. It seems like lately all anyone's been doing is fighting some kind of battle." She sighed again, shaking her head. She hadn't heard about this actually. At least, she didn't remember it. She would've definitely remembered talk of a giant bird...and people dying at the school, of course. "And yeah, I'd have to agree with that as well. At least somewhat. His ideas were definitely...I don't have any words for it. But beating him up sure wouldn't be so bad." She spoke, unable to hold back a slight grin. It's not like she had positive feelings towards the Angel either.
