Bab 1: Persona 1
The world is not as it should be, It's filled with distortion, and 'ruin' can no longer be avoided.,
Those who oppose fate and desire change… From time to time, they were referred to as Tricksters.
You are truly the Trickster… Now is the time to rise against the abyss of distortion.
A police helicopter flew quickly, the police force inside of the aircraft, marveled as the wind generated blew small waves on the water the reflection of the lights gave a picturesque view, the helicopter pushed ahead, low as the city, full of lights, awaited them on the other side of the lake, passing buildings and skyscrapers, and in the center was a giant casino, full of colorful neon signs.
Inside of the casino, a crowd of people were confused and worried, as a ringing sound blew across the building, perhaps a fire alarm?
Man in a button up shirt:"Oh" A man gasped as he, inadvertently messed his chips on the table, his gaze, however, was confused, the crowd grew anxious, his partner grasped his arm with her manicured hand and she leaned for support, her eyes darting around.
The crowd started to run, pushing people around.
On the roof of this floor, a dark shadow passed the wind dragged by the shadow gave a distinct sound, one not unlike a wind hitting a fast car.
Beautiful woman:"Uhh, eh...?" A woman in a business suit gasped and made sounds of confusion.
The shadow jumped again, drawing more attention.
Middle-aged man:"...There is someone here!" A middle-aged man in a blue button-up shirt looked around, the sounds of wind reached his ears and he turned around trying to catch the shadow with his eyes. Three security guards entered the floor, they wore cliche black suits and black sunglasses, they looked around trying to find the shadow as well, the shadow jumped again, doing professional maneuvers in the sky, with speed, strength, and grace so out of this world it was inhuman, the shadow landed on the chandelier, and it moved a bit due to the new weight.
Man in a grey Suit:"Oi... that…" A man in a grey suit sighted the shadow above, it was a tall man holding a metal case, he adorning a black ankle-length tailcoat, on the breast pocket was three folded white Handkerchiefs, a high-necked grey waistcoat with gold accents, or buttons, black pants, black high boots, and a pair of crimson gloves. His mask is a black and white, birdlike domino mask.
The man had his identity hidden by the mask, but he had wavy unkempt raven hair, however even from a distance the people noted that it was very silky, soft facial features, and crimson blazing eyes. The man exuded confidence and charm off him in waves and had an arrogant smirk on his face.
Agent:"He's here, move in immediately." One of the security guards spoke through a radio as they moved, pushing past the crowd, being sighted the man continued smirking and turned around and jumped again onto another platform, the man received some voices from his own communication.
Boyish Voice: "Yosh. Now the escape begins!"
Boy's Voice: "This is our chance!"
Girl's Voice: "Don't panic now! Now you can get away!"
Girl's Voice: "We shall retrieve the case on our end."
Mysterious Transmission: "...suspects... not...confirmed...hold...your...positions…"
Just then they received a static radio sound, the man with the red gloves, accurately deduced what was said, but decided to not inform his partners
Girl's Voice:"Hm…? What was that just now…?"
Boyish Voice:"Don't worry about us. Just concentrate on getting away!"
After receiving input from his partners, he started jumping again in the roof looking for an exit, the voices continued talking to him.
Boyish Voice: "But, showing your form to the crowd earlier was a peerless feat, truly this one is impressed, As expected of Joker."
Girl's Voice: "If it was skull it wouldn't go so perfectly."
Boy's Voice:"It's because he has no sense for aesthetics"
Skull:"Nobody asked you Inari!"
Agent:"There!" A security guard climbed the stairs and reached the roof of the floor, he pointed towards the man now known as Joker, the guard turned towards the stairs as his colleagues started filtering in as well, Joker looked entirely unimpressed, his crimson eyes showed a bit of disappointment, h3e continued parkouring through the arches without a sweat.
Girl's Voice:"In any case just run!"
Boyish Voice:"The enemy is focused on him, we can slip away easily"
Girl's Voice:"Everyone remembers where we are meeting?"
Girl's Voice:"Don't worry I can guide all of you!"
Joker Jumped towards a ledge doing a backflip and reached another floor in the building, confetti eternally raining from above, from out of nowhere, the building was definitely fancy, having artful clay pots full of exotic plants.
Two guards blocked his way, and they transformed into hunchbacked monsters with a mask, another jumped from behind Joker
Girl's Voice:"Kill them Joker!"
Joker turned to face the one in his back, and smirked mockingly, he jumped faster than the mutated guards could react did a flip and landed on the guard's shoulders, his red hands grasped the guards mask and ripped it violently, spilling blood on the ground, Joker then kicked the guard's back and the monster was thrown forwards with such force that when he hit the ground he bounced off and rolled again, until the monster stopped, the monster's body expanded and became dark, his shoulders blew as blood spilled from its body, until it transformed into a giant chimera ox monstrosity.
Girl's Voice:"Comparing power levels, no threat, this guy is a weakling, end this Joker!"
In less than a blink he drew a customized obsidian and golden pistol and shot the ox monster 2 times, hitting the head the chest and the abdomen, not a bullet wasted, the ox fell down cradling his wounds, but Joker didn't have mercy, from his sleeves he pulled out a decorative knife, it was beautiful in design, but deadly in nature, he closed the distance between him and the ox leaving a sonic boom behind, with knife in hand he slashed the monster's limbs off, and carved its face, drawing a spray of blood, however Joker didn't have a drop of blood on him, due to púre finesse and grace, all left of the ox was a bloody red lump of meat, slashed so badly, it's face was split in two, showing a bit of bone from the cranium, it bled through the gunshot wounds like a piece of scarlet yolk suddenly spurting forward, the blood seeped out of the body forming a nice puddle,
Joker looked at the mess stoically, not giving a reaction to the gruesome sight.
Boyish Voice: "Yosh, you defeated him with ease!" The voice sounded excited, also not caring that his comrade performed that grotesque act.
Girl's Voice:"More of them are coming! Be careful!" The voice sounded a bit worried for Joker, the monster guards approached and one of them swung an electrical bat at him, he flipped back avoiding the attack while a phantom leg surged from Joker's body, giving an upper kick right to the chin of the guard, the force dislocated the guard's neck and threw the body towards the other two while he was at it, Joker landed on his feet after the flip and smirked again, he jumped towards another floor balcony, escaping the guard's vision.
Girl's Voice:"Joker, behind you! Go through that door in the back!" The voice was a bit frantic, but Joker nonetheless followed the instructions, it lead towards a back room of sorts, it had various industrial pipes behind cages of metal, the place was completely different from the luxurious casino, as it had bleak walls, full of graffiti and paper drawings on the wall.
Girl's Voice:"Good you should be able to get out that way! Hurry!"
Skull:"Oi, Oi can he even hear us right now?"
Girl's Voice:"Don't worry, I'm picking everyone's voices, Just go, Joker!"
He rushed down the room, spotted a door, and opened using his shoulder, the door leading to a staircase down, and he effortlessly jumped down, not making a sound, he heard the guards looking for him but Joker was a master at stealth. He wasn't worried at all.
Skull:"Tch! We killed a bunch of these guys in black, but there are still loads more of 'em..."
Joker, opened another door, leading into a room full of trash containers, there was a transparent window the size of the wall, and on the other side was another man in black, Joker's senses picked up his voice from across the pane of glass.
Agent:"Where'd they go!? Damn it! I can't confirm the intruder's location." The man's frustrations accompanied the tone as he ranted in the radio and left.
Girl's Voice:"Up ahead! Hide, Joker!" The girl was mentioning the guard down the foot of the stairs, Joker hid behind cover and covertly in haste, he switched covers until he was near the guard, the way he switched covers was so fast it was completely inhuman, it shouldn't have been physically possible.
Agent:"...Hey, are you sure he came this way? Understood, I will continue the search!" The man closed his radio turned around and went back to search for the targets after the man left the room,
Joker rolled out of cover.
Girl's Voice:"Yosh, now you can escape!"
Joker grunted in affirmation, a very deep and commanding sound escaped his lips.
He ran and jumped towards the top of the stairs skipping it, it was too fast and he was about to reach the wall, but a phantom leg appeared on his foot, and kicked the wall, making him jump another set of stairs, Joker crossed a corridor, reaching another window, where he found a crowd of people inside the room, there were camera feeds all around the wall as the people there worked tirelessly, Joker glanced inside without notice.
Man in a Business Suit:"It's not only one! Find them all and kill them!" A man who was talking on the phone said with frustration, Joker used that chance to slip by the corridor faster than a cheetah, climbing the stairs again as he was finally noticed by the security, the wild goose chase lead all the way to a balcony on the casino, Joker's hands rested on the fancy stone rail.
Girl's Voice:"What's wrong, the exit should be up ahead."
Joker looked ahead, there was a painted glass up ahead, but he need to cross the balcony to the side.
Girl's Voice:"Uh! I see! After that commotion--"
Girl's Voice:"-The bottom's completely closed off… Hey, can you make it?"
Joker's senses noted the guards behind him.
Agent:"There is nowhere to run"
The guards pointed their guns at him, Joker smirked, he raised his hand evading a few shops, a third phantom hand surged forward, the hand held a shadow-crimson flame, and it surged forward down the corridor,m the three unfortunate guards were in the way ,and they died, all that was left was a singed corridor and charred, cursed corpses, after confirming his kills he vaulted to the rail and jumped, his body reached the balcony on the other side, Joker ignored that he did a completely impossible feat of jumping across twenty metres, after landing safely, more guards arrived through the singed corridor, pointing their guns at him.
Joker:"See ya..." He said to them mockingly and jumped through the painted glass breaking it into pieces, he did a few acrobatics on the sky, The night was still prime and the moon was full, and illuminated his body.
Girl's Voice:"Geez, what a showoff! Get your act together Onii-chan" An irritated voice said, but the irritation was good-natured.
Girl's Voice:"My, you are so reckless, you know that?" A more mature voice sounded, it had a relieved tone to it.
Joker landed on the ground and rolled coming to a stop in a kneeling position, he then raised himself up, and faced forward, he was then blinded by lights turning on right in his face, he shielded his face with his forearm as his eyes adjusted to the brightness, Joker had a displeased face.
Girl's Voice:"No way...Enemies, here?!--"
Boy's Voice: "What happened?"
Girl's Voice:"--But, these readings… It can't be"
Boy's Voice:"What happened?!"
Girl's Voice:"An ambush!?"
Girl's Voice:"No, this can't"
Boyish Voice:"Joker, are you alright?!"
Boy's Voice:"Joker!"
Joker was in for it now, in front of him, blocking the way were hundreds of police officers, all wearing heavy protection, shields, helmets and all.
Police Officer:"Capture Him!"
The officers rushed forward trying to apprehend the worst criminal in japan's history.
Joker rushed to the side, reached for an emergency red metal stair, and climbed it without worry, the policemen couldn't reach that high up so he smirked at the policemen incompetence, however up the stairs was a team pointing shotguns at him, one tried to hit him with the butt of his gun, but Joker who had an inhuman reaction, drew his knife, and in an impressive slash cut his head in half, while one arm still held onto the stairs, the other policemen up in the stairs looked at their comrade as a red line appeared in his mask, more specifically on his nose, the red line spanned from one ear to the next, blood started to drip as the man opened his mouth, tried to make a sound, but immediately died, the slash was that fast, The force of the slash separated the jaw from the head it was an ugly sight, seeing the head facing two different directions as the man fell limp, with a thump on the metal platform he fell towards the ground missing Joker entirely, he fell in a splatter on the ground as the crimson liquid flowed around the body, the men above panicked and each of them pulled the trigger on Joker, he was hit by the shotgun rounds pretty hard, but was able to land safely in the middle of the policemen, not a wound on him even after being shot, just some left over smoke on his waistcoat, the police who were directly below him when he was shot weren't that lucky, the shotgun rounds made directly into their cranium and they fell like puppets without strings, Joker coughed a bit, the arm holding the bloody knife shielded his mouth as he coughed three times.
Joker:'The bullets couldn't penetrate my body, nor my clothing it seems… but the blunt force still hurts' Joker thought with a grimace, he was temporarily deaf, he couldn't even hear the voices of his teammates any longer, as he could only hear ringing on his ears, but he could definitely see the police shouting, his crimson eyes saw the fear in the posture of every man here.
He straightened his posture, gripped his dagger in an inverse position, he smirked, releasing his intent to kill everyone here, the bloodlust washed over the police as they flinched, they didn't know what was happening but they wanted to run away from here fast.
What happened next was a genocide, a massacre, He jumped on the crowds of policemen cutting them with his knife, right on the neck or the chest where he could hit lungs, liver and kidneys, deadly vital spots. He could avoid the shields and hit them from behind... Because bulletproof vests did little to protect from his special knife. however as many bodies fell to the ground, Joker also had taken a lot of damage, he was shot multiple times and he was also temporality blinded by tear gas, blind and deaf, he moved only with instinct and intuition, however finally he received enough gunshots to the head to cause a concussion, he fell down, his body numb and hurting, the few remaining police officers swarmed the criminal on the ground, they pushed their body weight as they apprehended the 'man'.
During the battle, there were those who fled, those who stood their ground, and those who fell paralyzed and puked from the violence displayed, from the hundreds of police officers, now only twenty, give or take remained alive.
A detective got out from the protection of his car, approached the detained criminal.
Detective:"D-Didn't expect to find some kid…" The man said Joker's sharp eyes opened as the effects of the gas relented, his crimson eyes, much like the color of the liquid spilled on the floor like a red sea.
Joker:"Hrm...Detective-san your nervousness is showing… don't worry, I don't expect my enemies to be calm while meeting me" Joker said with his deep, commanding voice, with a cocky smirk as his eyes pinned the detective with killer intent.
Detective:"Krh… shut up! You won't be living for much longer! Hah… if you want to blame someone blame your teammate for this...you have been sold out like a piece of yesterday's trash"
Joker:"Oh, have I Perhaps been betrayed?… Oh, Gods! What should I do?" Joker said with as much sarcasm as he could.
Joker:"By the way Detective-san, if you want to blame someone for the death of literally a hundred policemen blame this traitorous teammate of mine, after all, He or She led me to you..." He said with a mirthless chuckle by the end.
Detective:"B-Bastard!"
Joker:"Detective-san, these people had lives, families, friends! How many lonely widows did I make today? How many orphans? And it was all your fault!" Joker's deep voice sounded so melodramatic, it bordered on mocking, no, this was full mocking, from an irredeemable insane person.
Joker:"I won't live much longer? That's funny, Why don't you kill me now, Detective-san?" Joker taunted the man as much as he could, it worked as the detective picked a shotgun, put in Joker's mouth.
Detective:"Why don't I kill you? Because of shit like this!" The detective pulled the trigger, the sound resounded in Joker's bones, his head recoiled a bit, but he was unhurt, he was forced to swallow bullet casings, but it wasn't that bad when your teeth can break down metal, the Police threw the shotgun away as he panted Joker made a showing of exhaling the smoke to further piss off the police force.
Detective:"It's because of shit like this! You are not even human anymore! Bring him!!" The man ordered and they moved the body towards the car, he would be detained in the police headquarters here in Shibuya.
Police Officer:"...Suspect...Confirmed…" The officer traumatized, whispered, in shock, he pulled a cuff and put around the wrist of the murderer.
>>Take your Time
In the police headquarters, he took photos for criminal documentation, the costume dissipated, leaving his student uniform red-buttoned black blazer with an emblem on the pocket, a white turtleneck shirt with chevron detailing on the collar, and red plaid trousers. His eyes still bore a deep red, seated with malice, and behind the mask, he wore as a criminal was a stunning photogenic face.
