Author's note: I own nothing. Also Only Minato is being used and I am sorry I deleted my earlier persona and shantae crossover fanfic. I just felt like I couldn't make anything make sense for that story. This new story starts in an alternate ending of pirate's curse and goes into half genie hero. Also to explain an occurance in the prologue. I am having Thanatos and Minato fused for this, also Nyx was sent so that she could live a peaceful life with her son, Thanatos, Minato being reborn as Thanatos' reincarnation. I got this idea by reading a highschool dxd and persona 3 crossover where Minato is basically thanatos but more tame and a bit amnestic. I don't remember the name of the fanfic or the name of the author but I credit them for the inspiration and idea.
Prologue: With a Messiah Comes Death
Shantae was kneeling in pain as she watched the pirate master hold Risky Boots in his palm. The large pirate skeleton chuckled morbidly as he stared down at the half genie who just got her magic back but was injured in the process. "You two don't know how much I will enjoy slaughtering you before destroying the land and claiming it for myself!" The pirate master announced in his chuckle.
"You won't get away with this Pirate Master!" Shantae yelled back at the evil being with pain in her voice. "But I already have!" The pirate master said with a smug grin before he took his blade, readying it to slash down at Shantae, Risky watching as she knew it would happen to her next. As the large monstrosity of a pirate swung down his blade it was stopped.
"What!?" Yelled the pirate master in shock and confusion as he looked at what stopped it. A boy in a strange uniform with consisted of a black dress jacket, a white button up, black pants and shoes and a red arm band with the word "S.E.E.S." Embroidered on it. The boy was holding a dark blade which looked demonic in nature but also elegant and light.
"Who are you! And why do you block my blade!?" Asked the pirate master. "Just someone who got a new chance of life. And I'm going to start it by sending you back to your grave, even if I die trying." The boy said in a monotone voice, his eyes silver and emotionless as he knocked back the priate master's blade effortlessly.
Shantae watched as her savior then put some strange device onto his ears and clicked something on a cylindrical device. "Don't bother trying to say anything, It won't matter." The blue haired boy said before tossing away his uniform jacket. "This child.. is an idiot." Risky whispered. The blue haired teenager walked slowly towards the pirate master, blade in one hand and a strange pistol in the other.
"Very well then, try your best, I'll let you take a shot!" The pirate master said cockily. "Let the woman go first, she isn't part of this fight, then I'll take my shot." The boy said. The pirate master complied with that and let Risky go who ran to Shantae and started to drag her to a good distance to watch the boy take his pistol and aim it at his temple.
"Going to kill yourself!? Hahahahaha!" The pirate master laughed. "Per..." the boy started. "DON'T!" Yelled Shantae in fear. "So..." The boy continued before he was stabbed by the pirate master's cutlace. "Na!" The boy finished as he coughed up blood, pulling the trigger. After the trigger was pulled an echoing sound of glass shattering filled the area.
A fading mirage of shattered glass from the side of the boy's head was seen as his head was knocked back, the rebound of the force of the gun making his hand move before he dropped his pistol. The boy seemed to have perished right then and there, making the pirate master laugh loudly as the two women watched blue flames surround the boy, disintegrating the pirate master's blade.
The boy fell backwards limply into the arms of a beautiful woman who stared at the pirate master with a glare before looking back down at the blue haired boy as the flames faded. "Rise my son. Protect me and this world, your embrace will give a warm death to those who give in willingly, but an icy torture to those who try and escape." The woman said in a gentle tone.
The boy stood up, his clothes being replaced by a black and dark blue uniform, a scabbard with a new sword in it on his hip. His jacket was long and dark blue, his pants, his gloves and boots grey, chained to his coat jacket was 6 dark blue coffin lids with white ornamental carvings on top of them. The woman got up and walked towards Risky and Shantae to watch the boy.
"Wh-who are you? Who is he? What is he!?" Risky questioned. "My name is Nyx. And that boy, is my son, Or at least my son reincarnated in a way. His name is Minato. But his old name.. Thanatos." Nyx said with a soft smile making Risky fear for her life. "We don't mean harm to you. Only to that evil pirate." Nyx said as she looked to the boy, now known as Minato.
Minato unsheathed his blade and he let out a war cry which turned into a roar as he charged the pirate master, slashing at him wildly but with much more control than one would think. He aimed for visible weak points, slashing at each one before he stabbed him right through the face. "DOOR OF HADES!" Minato yelled as his coffin wings shook, a dark blue orb swallowing up the pirate master.
The evil pirate tried escaping but he was dragged, pulled into the black abyssal orb, screaming from pain and fear as he felt ice that wasn't there crawl all over his body despite his skeletal form. The pirate master was no more, he was gone, dead for good as the blue haired boy pulled his blade from the roof of the palace they were on, putting it away as the clouds cleared.
"Shantae!" Yelled a female voice, running up to the three women who watched this happen. Shantae turned to see her friends, Sky Bolo, and Rottytops running up to her hugging her. "Sky, Bolo, Rottytops!" Shantae exclaimed as she hugged them back. Minato walked over to his mother, his coffin wings shrinking as he did.
His mother, Nyx, hugging him and patting his head. "You've done well, My son. Now let's give them some space." Nyx said. Minato nodded and started to walk away, his mother, the goddess of the moon, following.
Prologue ended.
