Even in the depths of night, when no other bird dares to take flight, one alone soars to shine the light of righteousness in the world's blight! And that bird is me! For I am the Great Thief, Yatagarasu!
The Great Thief, Yatagarasu. Infamous for stealing and exploiting various files of illegal and unlawful acts from high-and-mighty companies. Is never caught in the act. Has three specific and distinct traits. One- always knew the exact location of the target object. Two- knew exactly how to disarm the security systems in the way. Three- never left a shred of evidence behind. So sneaky, so conniving… The Yatagarasu's heists always go unnoticed, until the information and the card of the Yatagarasu are found on the front page of the newpaper, after being sent to the media.
The legs of the three-legged raven stood for those three particular traits, as well as the three individual members. For the Great Thief Yatagarasu was not one mere person- it was a perfectly constructed team of three. One member on all three sides of the court. Every aspect of the heist would be able to be researched and covered for. The plan was impeccable. First, there was the defense attorney, who caught the attention of the targeted, powerful corporations, who sought legal protection. The defense attorney would use this method to get close to the potential quarry, and gain its trust. No one would ever suspect this person to be a part of an exploiting group, much less the awful and corrupted Yatagarasu. This task was given to Miss Calisto Yew.
Then, there was the role of the prosecutor- the second leg of the Yatagarasu. The one whom, from the knowledge from previous cases, would know how to deactivate the security systems that would give the success of the infiltration any interference. Not to mention, the prosecutor would have possession of the "Little Thief", a small contraption that would devise the strategy of their heists. The Little Thief, one of the most useful tools, was essential for the success of the infiltration. And it was created by none other than Byrne Faraday, the second leg of the Yatagarasu.
Lastly, there was the third leg of the Great Thief- the detective. The one whom would always arrive at the crime scene first. The one whom would always get rid of any evidence of the Yatagarasu's appearance. The one whom would always make sure nothing related to the Yatagaraasu, especially proof of the Yatagarasu's presence, would ever reach the officials-except the calling card of course. Though considered the last leg, make no mistake. The detective's position in the Yatagarasu is just as important as the previous two. It is vital for all of the evidence of the Yatagarasu to be erased.
It would be the perfect team. The Yatagarasu was practically unstoppable, to have an associate on the inside of all parts of an investigation. With the three-legged raven freely soaring through the night sky, no wrongdoing of a company will go unpunished. Justice will be served, by a masked hero. No one was above the law. The idea of the Yatagarasu was flawless, faultless. Unless, of course, one of the legs was a traitor in disguise… as Calisto Yew was. Thus, resulting in the KG-8 incident, and the rupture of the original Yatagarasu.
However, all hope is not lost. For, from the ashes of the old three-legged raven, a new Yatagarasu is born. Its successor, who had determination shining from her bright, green eyes, now holds the Yatagarasu key, the Little Thief, and the trademark calling card of the Yatagarasu. Soon, the legendary raven will fly again, patrolling the city in the night sky, looking for any and all unlawful activity. All that is needed is the other two legs, and the assembly of the new Yatagarasu will be complete.
The world is full of crime and wrongdoings, however, these illegal acts could not be done without the actual wrongdoer. Whether it be a high-class business person, whether it be a tourist under a million different guises, or even whether it be the president, no one is above the law. And that is the reason why the Yatagarasu exists. It will be there to punish any and all wrongdoers, and put the culprits where they belong. As long as the Yatagarasu flies freely, one whom breaks the law shall always be punished.
I do not own anything, of course. First "Ace Attorney" fic! I don't blame you if you don't like it… this is just the prologue! The real action begins in the next chap… Hopefully. Please review!
