The Undead Universe...a place where all things creepy and scary reside. Vampires, Mummies, Ghosts, Werewolves, any sort of horror movie monster you can imagine exists within this universe. And right now...there are thieves within its borders.
"The Undead Universe… pretty spooky if you ask me." Oracle, AKA Futaba Sakura said.
"Funny, considering your Persona is named Necronomicon. DId i forget to mention that its named after a Book containing the secrets of the supernatural?" Jack said.
"You would know considering who your father is." Mona aka Morgana said.
"True. I have learned a lot from my father. But that time has passed. Now its time to pick our first target. I've picked the first heist. We're gonna rob from the royal mummy family." Jack said.
"As in like Master Mummy's family?" Skull aka Ryuji asked.
"Bingo. They are the richest family of mummies here. And there's supposed to be some golden sarcophagus inside. That's our target." Jack said. "Unfortunately since the abilities mummies use are organic, I can't steal them. Meaning if things get serious, I might end up having to borrow abilities from one of you guys."
"I have no problem with that." Fox AKA Yusuke said.
The rest of the thieves agreed with him.
"Good. Now we just have to figure out a way in. As far as I've seen, the pyramid they reside in has only one entrance but several traps. We need to steal the key from one of the family members and then navigate through the traps and then steal the treasure." Jack said. "I'll be charming Master Mummy's daughter Bandage and hope I get lucky enough to swipe the key from her."
"You really think it'll be that simple? Seduction isnt really that easy." Panther aka Ann said.
"True, but when it calms to smooth talking and persuasion...I am a master." Jack said.
It was late in the evening when Bandage was coming back from a club in the town and a bit dizzy from partying. When she was about to trip, she was soon caught by a human hand. She looked up and saw Jack.
"Careful, the street is no place for such a delicate rose." Jack said.
"Oh...such a charmer aren't you?" Bandage said as she was helped up.
"It would be ungentlemanly of me to let you walk home alone. Allow me to escort you." Jack said with a bow.
"Why *hic* thanks." Bandage said as she lead him right to the pyramid. She then got out her key and tried to unlock the door.
"Here, let me." Jack said grabbing the key and unlocking the door for her.
"Oh..Thanks *hic* you." she said stumbling in.
"No...thank you." Jack said smiling as he held the key before going behind a statue and then changed into his thief outfit. "But now...its time for work. Operation is a go." he said in a comm as Fox, Panther and Mona walked out.
"This is too easy. Were lucky that Bandage was drunk." Mona said.
'And now, the treasures ours for the taking." Panther said.
"Dont get too attached guys. Im getting enemy activity inside!" Oracle said while inside Necronomicon, a huge flying saucer.
"Must be the guards and traps inside. No way they would leave such treasures unguarded." Jack said. "We'll just have to be cautious and try not to alert the whole inside"
The four of them snuck inside as they moved left and right across the walls before seeing a large mummy with a flashlight walking their way.
"Guard! Hide." Mona said as they split up and hid.
"WOw, they dont really mess around." Panther said.
"This is ancient mummy treasure we're talking about. They wouldn't just leave it unguarded without some form of security." Jack said.
As soon as the guard passed them back, they continued onward before stopping at a large pit full of spikes.
"Clever." Jack smiled walking forward onto an invisible walkway that made him look like he was flying. "An illusion to make them think the path is uncrossable." Jack said.
"Hah, no trap can be unseen by the Phantom Thieves!" Mona said.
"Morgana, quit shouting! Youre gonna give us away!" Panther said.
"Don't use my real name! The code names are the only reason we don't get caught." Mona said.
They then heard growling as a mummy approached.
"I got this." Panther said ripping her mask off as a woman in pink with two servants with heart shaped heads appeared. "Carmen! Light that sucker up!"
The persona then ignited the mummy making him run back the way he came.
"It won't take him long before he alerts the rest of them. Now we have to double time." Jack said as they picked up the pace, running faster till reaching the main treasure room. "Find the sarcophagus, that's all we need to steal."
"Hey, I see it!" Panther said as they saw a golden sarcophagus sitting upright. Each of them grabbed a side and started to carry it as it felt heavy.
"Man, I can't believe how heavy a golden one of these are." Mona said.
"And...loud?" Panther asked as they heard snoring.
"Wait a minute…" Jack said as they set it down and opened it. Inside was a sleeping Master Mummy. "Crap. He's using it as a bed."
"Oh my god, we were stealing someone's bed?!" Mona asked loudly.
Master mummy then burst his eyes open and stood up, seeing the four.
"Graour!" he roared.
"Mona, you freakin idiot!" Panther said.
"We need to keep him distracted." Jack said.
"I will do so." Yusuke said ripping his mask off as a man in japanese clothing with a large pipe appeared. "Goemon!"
Goemon and Master mummy exchanged blows, as Goemon was able to get some ice attacks in, but master mummy shook them off. But Master Mummy was pushed out of the sarcophagus.
"Now!" Jack said as he, Panther and Mona got the sarcophagus. "Fox, keep him busy for three minutes than follow us out."
"Understood." Yusuke said drawing a katana. Yusuke and Master Mummy clashed as the three thieves were headed around the room before Mona noticed something.
"I found a weakspot in the wall. Panther, blow it out with Carmen." Mona said.
"Got it!" Panther said as Carmen blew a hole in the wall on the side of the pyramid.
"Now its time to go sledding." Jack said.
The three of them got into the sarcophagus as sild down the side of the pyramid.
"Till we meet again, mummy." Fox said jumping out the hole.
"Now Mona, make yourself useful and be the get away!" Panther said grabbing Mona and tossing him. As he landed on the ground, he transformed into a van as the sarcophagus slid into it with Fox getting behind the wheel and Jack and Panther in back.
"Drive! Drive!" Jack said as Fox stepped on it as the van was peeling out of the lawn.
"Can i say our exit line this time, please?" Ann asked.
"Seeing as how no one is chasing us...go right ahead." Jack said.
"Hey, Master Mummy! Remember that it was the Phantom Thieves that stole from you!" Ann said.
"Well, it was a little shaky but our first undead universe heist worked out well." Jack said.
"So whats our next move?" Fox said.
"After storing this baby in the trove, I'll start planning the next heist. I'm focusing on one of the largest treasures to ever exist in this universe." Jack said.
