Torn Apart

Suspicions

"And this unknown Kaitou Scarlet takes the lead again! Will Kaitou Joker ever pull through this?!"

Click.

Joker tossed the remote to his back, which Hachi caught it beautifully and placed it back to it's holder, he groaned and complained about tossing everything around like garbage, if it wasn't for him he would be living in a garbage dump.

He sighed and grabbed his head, he didn't know which identity is the real him, there's two sides to that smirking poker face, and it was about to crack. He was torn apart between two worlds, and he could only choose one or lose both.

He looked up to the now turned off television, dazing at his reflection aimlessly, the identity of him now is Joker, but the reflection on the television was a complete different person, he's like him and Shadow, a light and a dark, but this time, it's both himself.

'I can't keep this up longer,' he sighed, walking to his room tiredly. 'I really can't.'

He looked at his phone on the dresser, he picked it up and dialed a series of numbers.

"Joker, is that you? Or is that Scarlet speaking?" a female voice came through.

"Luna," he sighed, groaning, "I have no idea."

"What do you mean you have no idea?"

"..." he was silent for a moment, he really didn't know, "I… I just don't, okay? Now Scarlet is on the news and Joker is fighting back…"

"... listen to yourself," the voice continued, softly, "Just… are you Selena? Or are you Jack? Or Joker? Or Scarlet? Tell me who you are now."

"I really don't," he continued to sigh, burying his face into his hands, "I really can't keep this up…"

"If you can't keep it up," the voice sighed as well, "Choose a side."

"What? No-"

"Selena Jones - Jack Jones! I know how it feels, I know," the voice seemed torn apart, "But each of your sides have expectations! Joker's side wants to make miracles! Scarlet's wants to prove that females are better than males - and also make miracles!"

"Luna, stop it, I, need some time to think!"

"Oh no I am not stopping, Jones, people are wondering, Scarlet and Joker are the same person! And Scarlet's in the dark - people doesn't even know what her hair color is! You have to decide, now!"

"But-"

"... I know this seems hard for you, but you really cannot hold this charade any longer - tell you what, why don't you just take a day off first, and decide? Start by taking a simple bath!"

"... Luna, sometimes I hate it when you're right," Joker grinned slightly and hung up the line; first thing's first, a simple bath to get his mind off of everything that's anything.

The image gum layer on him expanded and went off with a pop, revealing a girl, with twin silver pigtails with a 'S' on the right one, a simple scarlet red tight dress that only has a sling for the left sleeve, a purple cape and purple high heels.

'I need at least an hour bath,' Joker, who was now his real form, Scarlet AKA Selena Jones thought in annoyance, 'On second thought, make it two.'


"Hey… Hachi, where's Joker?" Spade asked, as usual holding a china cup with tea inside at Joker's living room.

"Uh… in his room," Hachi shrugged, changing off his apron.

"Too bad, guess I'll have to battle Shadow for this," Spade smirked, getting up from his seat, "... at the square today."

"Good luck, Mr Spade," Hachi gave his wishes and returned to his daily chores, only to find a note there.

Hachi, I am not staying in the Sky Joker today, call me if you need me.

-Phantom Thief Kaitou Joker-

"That's odd," Hachi said to himself, glancing at Hosshi digging his way through the thick stack of his special konpeito. "... I'll need to make some more."


Selena walked the streets muttering away in annoyance, she promised Luna that she'll take her mind off it, what better than video games? Her phone rang once again and she hissed in annoyance, Hachi dammit!

"Hachi, what is it now?! Is it Spade again?!"

"Scar, I doubt that I'm Hachi," Luna smirked at her side.

"Oh… why are you calling?" she groaned.

"Uh, nothing, I just want to keep our rank up."

"Rank…? Uh, where are we meeting again?"

"The usual."

"... are you kidding?" Selena asked, "There's something about there that gives my the chills."

"Just because the cafè's name is 'Detective's Haven'?"

Selena rolled her eyes in annoyance, "Same VIP booking?"

"It's on me, Flare Scar," Luna laughed, "I'm already there, and I can see from the window that you're right here."

She looked at the shop next to her, she saw a girl with blue hair tied into a high ponytail tied with a white ribbon that has a blue crystal in it, she had light blue eyes.

The girl was also wearing a short white scarf around her neck, a blue sleeveless shirt, white fingerless gloves with gold bracelets on two of her hands, she was smirking at Selena and made some motions that meant "Get in here, now".

Selena replied by raising her rude finger and hung the line, 'At least a game will get my mind off of things.'


This café really lives up to it's name, detectives all over the world came over, and since she is the other half of Joker or Scarlet, a lot of misunderstandings happened, even if she's also a wanted phantom thief as Scarlet.

So, this happened when she walked in, she was dumbstruck and sweatdropped at her other's side rivals.

When she passed Oniyama, Momo and Ginko's table:

"There's Joker!" Oniyama yelled, and the two females immediately sprang to her side, she managed to dodge, but Oniyama still managed to tug one of her pigtails, making her collapse, at the moment she was literally heads over heels.

"Hey!" she yelled at them, "Can't you tell who Joker is?!"

"Then why do you look like him?! Are you his sister?!" Ginko hissed.

That struck a nerve, "Why does he have a sister?!"

When she passed Viridian's table:

Several paint-acids flew towards her, she failed to notice in time because she was annoyed at the moment, that acid took strands of her hair, "Ahh! My hair!"

'Oops,' Viridian sweatdropped.

"Viridian!" she shrieked, "Get your artsy-butts out of here!"

"And how do you know my name?!" he snapped.

She raised an eyebrow, "Really, huh? From what I can recall, you ruined my hair!"

'Oh crap, girls are so aggressive when they're mad,' he sweatdropped.

When he finally got to her destination:

"I'm never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever, coming back to this place again!" she pouted and laid her head on the table, Luna on the other hand was busy drinking coffee.

"... oh come on," she sweatdropped when she placed it down, and the waiter took it away, "Let's just get out rank up, shall we?"

"Wait - you talked about more challengers that want to team with us, am I right?" Selena asked, getting up.

"Yeah," she shrugged, bringing her laptop out, "I know 'Mobile Legends' is a app game, but we're so damn good at it! Fans consider us 'Flare and Ice, Dark and Light'."

"That's actually great, for our game names and all," Selena rolled her eyes and focused on the screen that Luna's pointing to.

"I'm looking through the requests, you want to see it?" Luna asked, pushing the blue covered laptop to her.

Spadon King - Requested to join squad.

Queen Of Diamond - Requested to join squad.

The Dark Shadow - Requested to join squad.

Rose Petals - Requested to join squad.

"... why does these names look so familiar?" Selena muttered.

Luna shrugged, "I don't know, they said they wanted to team with us face-to-face, you think?"

"Meh, why not?" Selena yawned and focused on updating her facebook status.

Meanwhile on the laptop screen:

DarkIceLunamoon: Hi there! Are you the people who wanted to join our squad?

Spadon King: Actually, it's Shadow.

The Dark Shadow: Shut up King!

Rose Petals: Stop fighting you guys!

Queen Of Diamond: Don't mind them, of course we are!"

DarkIceLunamoon: … okay… and you said you wanted to meet us face-to-face?

Queen Of Diamond: Of course we do! Where are you now?

LightFlareScarlett: Did I miss anything?

DarkIceLunamoon: About time! We're at "Detective's Haven", VIP 03, see you there.

Rose Petals: Actually… we're in VIP… 01.

DarkIceLunamoon: Wait, what?

LightFlareScarlett: You have got to be kidding me.

DarkIceLunamoon: … see you in three seconds…?


The door opened once as Luna kept her laptop with Selena slumping back to her chair crossing her arms, it wouldn't take a genius to figure out who's who. "Finally." Selena yawned, but her mouth hung open once she saw the visitors.

"I take it you're… The Dark Shadow, Spadon King, Queen of Diamond and Rose Petals…?" Luna asked.

"Yeah, just call us Shadow, Spade, Queen and Rose."

What are they doing here?

I've decided to rewrite one of my oldest fan fictions about Kaitou Joker, An Unbelievable Miracle! Hope you enjoyed it!
