Chapter 2
The Gremlin Oracle of the Demon's Head
It had been a week since Futaba woke up in the Snake's Nest.
She was dressed in the clothes she was wearing which is her casual summer outfit it consists of a black tank top with a Tetris (turns out that Tetris is Multi-universal thing) image in front, with a green tank top underneath. She wears gray baggy pants with black laces on the bottom and green sneakers. She also has a white hip pack that forms a monstrous face with the zipper as the mouth and green eyes.
Not liking to stay idle she decides to learn about her new surroundings. First off the place they were at the Snake's Nest is a den of villainy led by an ecofriendly immortal ninja master and his army of assassins… and no she was not making this up Ra's al Ghul is a radical international eco-terrorist whose lifespan has been extended for hundreds of years.
How does he go about the Eco-terrorist part? Simple cull humanity.
As for the immortality thing he uses some magic goop that are found in pits calls Lazarus pits. Which apparently makes go nuts.
Though then again Immortality tends to do that on the regular though it was temporary.
She also discovered that Superheroes, Atlantis and Aliens exist. Hell from what she heard that's Ra's grandson is the sidekick of the Batman.
Besides that she had done all she could in recovering. She also trained her body with the techniques that Rise-Sempai had taught her before they separated when the Velvet Room blew up. Along with watching Super Sentai though it was mostly Jetman.
She hopes that both Rise and Fuka-Sempai are alright.
But for now she will keep up her training to make sure she can handle her boyfriend when they reunite.
Oh and save the world when needed she guessed.
"Ok then after lunch I should get some practice and maybe do some research about this so called Darkside war I keep hearing about?" Futaba asked herself.
"I believe that would be a good idea young hermit." A male voice said.
Huh speak of the demon and he will come. Futaba said as she turns around to see her host the Demon's head himself Ra's al Ghul.
"Ah Ra how are you on this day?" Futaba asked with a grin.
"You don't fool me little gremlin." Ra said.
"Well I tried but in all seriousness what do you need?" Futaba asked in a serious tone.
"Yes indeed I've received a report that you might be interested." Ra said as he gives her a piece of paper.
Futaba took the paper and gasped.
"Holy shit… Ryuji is alive. Along with Shiho and Ann." Futaba said.
"Indeed and his powers are quite strong just like you said. Now have you've given my idea some thought?" Ra said as Futaba nods.
"Yeah I did. I'm still kicking myself for not thinking of the idea in the first place." Futaba said as she grumbled.
"Indeed I also desire to see your powers first hand." Ra said.
"Yeah I know then prepare to be amazed Ra." Futaba said as Azure fire appeared on her face.
Once the fire is out her mask appears. It consists of a pair of big black goggles with orange lenses.
Ra raised an eyebrow for a bit it was flashy for sure but nothing he hadn't seen before.
"Now then come forth Al Azif!" Futaba shouted as she removes her mask.
Ra's eyebrow had gotten a bit higher as he hears the true name of Lovecraft's Necronomicon.
As for Al Azif itself it was a flying saucer in the shape of a triangle with blueish-green gems on it. Several tentacles comes out of Futaba's Persona ready to lunge at her foes.
Ra decides to lunge at Futaba.
The Gremlin was spooked and Al Azif launches its tentacles at Ra but he dodges though he done it halfheartedly.
Futaba uses her the style she learned from her Sempai Narukami Rise to fight off Ra.
But after a while Ra decides that it was enough and stops attacking.
Futaba notices this and stops her attacks. Despite being the physically weakest of the thieves she still keeps her guard up.
Ra nods at Futaba's stance.
"Good never let your guard down at any moment." Ra said as Futaba nods.
"Yeah the war really helped me and my friends well." Futaba said.
"Now then I believe it's time to execute the plan." Ra said.
A few hours later
Futaba, Sae and Tae along with Ra and his scientists were waiting for Futaba to use her powers. Futaba takes a deep breath.
Futaba took out her smartphone ready for use. The idea was to use the tracking program she hacked into the other thieves' phones way back in the day. These programs were very useful during the Shadow wars.
"Ok Al Azif, find my friends." Futaba said as she used her Persona to find her friends.
After 20 minutes she received the locations.
At a large computer screen several locations. One location had Ra interested.
"Huh Gotham City." Ra said as he three bleeps in the city his grandson is in.
Ra saw that Futaba, Sae, Tae, Ryuji, Ann and Shiho with their names and locations revealed. But the others had the pictures of Tarot Cards of the Major Arcana.
Ra smiled at Futaba's ingenuity.
Futaba looked longingly at the World, The Strength and The Magician.
Sae had a worried look at the Priestess was in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.
Tae was curious of the Empress in Dakoda in all places.
He see the others but then Futaba notices some was wrong.
"Hey where's the Hope?" Futaba asked.
"Hold on maybe she and her mom are in space or something." Tae said.
"Hopefully there in Green Lantern territory." Sae said.
"Yeah me too." Futaba said.
As Futaba memorized the locations Al Azif was giving her a notification.
"(Futaba… Message… Warn Ra)." Al Azif said.
Futaba looked at the message.
"Soon the Shadow of our goddess will destroy the Demon's Head."
It was a simple Message but it held a lot of implications.
Futaba stopped after getting the info she needed. She went to Ra and whispered to him about the message Ra nods.
"Futaba, Sae, Tae. Go and rest I'll prepare what you need for travel." Ra said as the three of them left the room.
After they left Ra called for his daughter Talia al Ghul.
"Father what is it?" Talia asked.
"The League of Shadows plans on betraying us." Ra said.
"I see that Futaba's epithet is true." Talia said.
"Indeed our Oracle may have saved us." Ra said.
"We should have those loyal to our family to help our guesses get to Gotham." Talia said.
"No not Gotham but rather Central City as to throw off our enemies." Ra said as Talia bows.
A few days later
Cairo international airport
The Lawyer, Doctor and Ex-Hacktivist are now in Cairo International airport ready to board a plane to America specifically Central City where they would stay for a few weeks until they would get a car to Gotham.
After boarding the plane Futaba began listening to some music, Tae was reading a book while Sae was watching a movie as the plane took off.
"We'll see you soon Ren stay safe baby." Futaba said.
She lets sleep take her as he body shuts down for some time.
Soon they would see Ren and the others but for now they would rest.
Unknown location
A young woman was waking up to a hospital room.
"Ugh where the hell am I?" The young woman said.
The young woman has brown hair in a bob cut with blunt bangs and a French-braid styled headband that matches her hair color. Her eyes are abnormal as they have been depicted as red, although her eye color in her school photos can be interpreted as a reddish-brown.
As the young woman looked around the door opened to someone wearing a radiation suit. The person notices the young woman is awake.
"Oh my goodness you're awake." The suited person said.
"Yeah I was wondering where I am besides the obvious of course." The Young woman asked.
"Of course miss I Dr. Marina and I apologize for wearing this suit but I was told that you have an abnormal amount of radiation." The now named Dr. Marina said.
"(Oh she must referring to my Nuclear powers. I should let her know then)." The Young Woman thought.
"Don't worry as long as I'm not actively using them it won't set any Geiger counters." The young woman said.
"I see thank you for letting me know miss…" Dr. Marina said as the Young woman answered.
"Oh I'm Makoto Niijima." The now named Makoto said as she introduced herself.
"Thank you Miss Niijima. Let me just open the curtains right here." Dr. Marina said as she opens the curtains to reveal an underwater scenery.
Makoto looked out the window in awe said she sees the sights of underwater building and sea creatures in perfect harmony.
Makoto had some many questions in her mind but only asked one.
"Where am I?" Makoto said stunned at the sights she saw.
"Why you're at the city of Atlantis." Dr. Marina said.
"Um if you don't mind doctor I'd like lay down for a while longer." Makoto said.
"Of course Miss Niijima if you need anything just let me know alright." Dr. Marina said as she leaves.
After she leaves Makoto was still looking at the window but soon laid back down.
"As Ryuji would say in situations like this. For Real." Makoto said.
