Author Note: I don't think people like AUs that aren't high school or vampire or pet ones. I think that turns a lot of people away from my stories. So thank you everyone that reads these because I honestly put my heart and sweat into them. You guys are fucking awesome. Now back to your regularly scheduled
Meltdown
Do they honestly think they can contain me here for long? They are only an annoyance. I can escape anytime I want. Look at them so smug towards me, like I'm the moron. I was arrested simply because I made an error. I did not factor Carly Nagasaki and Misty Lola into the equation. This time I have accounted for all major players; Jack Atlus, Crow Hogan, Bruno Borrelli, Kiryu Kyosuke, Mikage Sagiri, Tetsu Ushio, Sherry LeBlanc, Carly Nagasaki, those twins and of course Yuusei Fudo and Aki Iyazoi. Well more like Yuusei Fudo's and Jack Atlus's memories. They will never fade from public eye. They are legends now. Yes this time I have accounted for all major players. There will be no sudden death. There will be no sudden strength. There will be absolutely no messiah! Not this time! Look at me getting so angry over such a mild annoyance. Silly little me. Time for planning. I will need a hostage. Not for the plan itself but the drama. Security will be much less likely to pursue me if I have a hostage. Preferably an attractive young Asian or Caucasian woman with a distinctive appearance.
I have currently been let outside the building, not outside the prison but the building. They think that it's inhumane to prevent prisoners from seeing the sunlight. Fools. What has Yuusei Fudo done to this town? His memory has changed this world so much. I miss my utopia. A young albino woman in very strange dress walks towards me an lifts me up by the collar.
"Can I help you?" I ask her.
"Do you have any means of going back in time?" She yells.
I stare at her for a total of forty seconds before drawing a card.
"I'm sorry for this." I smile. "I activate Psychic Sword."
I am a bit of a drama queen. Sorry. It can't be helped. A large glowing sword is in my hand. I swing my foot upwards and kick the woman in the groin. She howls in pain and I wrap my arm around her chest. I press the sword against her throat. Security rushes out with guns pointed.
"Tsk, tsk, you wouldn't want the young lady to die would you?" I ask with a smirk.
"Lady? Young?" The woman splutters.
"Hush up darling." I laugh. "It'll be just fine."
"Darling? Do you know who I am?" The woman screams.
"No and I don't care. Next I use Meteor of Destruction!" I laugh as the flaming rock slams against the gate and opens my path to freedom.
"Listen I have another ten spell cards here, all of which can cause damage to you and perhaps the entire city. Give me the keys to one of those shiny vans and I will release the hostage and won't kill everyone." I smile.
They debate it.
"Hurry it up or I'll use a monster, an Arcana force." I smile even wider.
Their eyes go wide. I bet they are wondering where I got the Arcana from. Don't have one. I only have the sword, the meteor, Serene Psychic Witch and Overmind Archfiend. If push comes to shove I'll summon the great beast but that would cause so much collateral damage, besides she's rather hard to control. Maybe I'll call her Witch, she's very reminiscent of the former thorn.
Security debates it and a member throws me the keys. I walk slowly back still clutching the hostage. She growls and bites my wrist. I press the blade against her throat causing her to bleed. She releases with a groan.
"Let me go you fool! You have no idea who you're messing with!" She screeches.
"Let me guess, the daughter of a senator? A psychic? Maybe even, a, a member of security! Don't make me laugh! I have dealt with much worse than you child."
I back up and drag the screaming and flailing woman over to the van. I open it up and throw her in. I hop in myself and summon Serene Psychic Witch. She's relatively easy to deal with and please.
"SPW please make sure the hostage doesn't do anything stupid." I order the monster.
She nods and hovers over to the woman.
"You have no fucking idea what you are playing at shit head! I am one of the three pure nobles! I am a member of Yllaister! You are so fucking dead! Lucciano could kill you!"
"I have absolutely no idea what any of that means."
"W-what?"
"I honestly have no idea what you are talking about madam. All I know is that you are very aggressive. Perhaps you should take anger management classes."
"Fuck you!"
"No thank you."
"Asshole."
"Are you trying to make some kind of point?"
"God damn it you're like that fucking human android fuck you."
"Human android?"
My mind goes straight to Magical Android. Could this woman be a psychic monster I have not yet seen? Oh then she was right, I did have no idea whom I was messing with.
There is silence for a moment. I glance ahead of me. When did it start raining so heavily? It's getting rather hard to see. The young woman reaches forwards and tilts the steering wheel sharply to the left. In a state of shock I scream for help.
"Overmind Archfiend!" I hiss.
The fiend is outside the van thankfully but she has no regard for me and shoves up aside, onto the other road, into oncoming traffic. I try and get the van back on track but the woman shoves me and climbs onto the seat with me.
"We're doing this my way!" She screams as she pushes down on the gas.
"Are you insane?" I shriek.
I take the steering wheel back and frantically try to get off the road. The rain clears for a second and a white car plows straight into the van. I climb out of the now burning and broken wreckage, leaving the strange and inhuman woman behind. I can see her, she has a severe head injury that's leaking, well I don't know what it's leaking. She's clearly something beyond anything I have ever seen. Sad, I hope in another life I could have studied her more closely. I try to collect my cards through the wreckage. After all if I can't find the card then Overmind Archfiend might be stuck on this world. Imagine that a being of incredible power that has the mentality of a teenage girl and no strong leader figure such as myself to make sure she obeys. SPW clearly also has issues with authority as she blatantly disobeyed me. I suppose I might as well bring it up until I can sort out this mess.
"SPW you were supposed to prevent this kind of think from happening."
"But sir you said prevent her from doing anything stupid, it was planned and clearly thought out and she decided to take the risks." SPW replies.
"Do you always obey commands so literally?"
"Yes."
"Good to know. Help me find these cards please without showing yourself too much to the people outside and without using any magic or blowing anything up."
"Yes sir."
She gets on her hands and knees and starts digging through the rubble with me. She is also like Aki. The Aki I knew and loved, before she chased off after the Fallen Star. If I could get SPW to obey then she would be a fine second in command. I wish I had thought of this before but the Serene Psychic Witch I had didn't have the same spark. Actually none of the cards that were in possession had a spark after that moment. What gives cards their spark? What takes the spark away? I go into the back and pick up the woman. I pitch her on the side of the road and grab the cards from underneath her.
"Found them. SPW I'm putting you away for now."
She looks at me sadly and vanishes, filling the card with life and spark again. What gives things spark? What takes them away? Look at all this chaos. What a terrible day for rain. I run off past the security member and onwards to freedom. I wonder what awaits me next.
Additional Note: This is only partially filler, you see SPW actually has a plot purpose and I have this way of deciding who's chapter goes next. So it's Placido's chapter next. Thanks for reading. And yup this is only half Divine's story so you have to be patient for the next part to his because it comes much later. Basically think of this as many short stories connected to one. We have the first story with a resolution, Team Ragnarok's and Crow's and we are now on Antinomy's, Lucciano's and Placido's. We have started Kiryu's and Bruno's and are working towards Divine's, Aki's and Carly's. We are also partially done with Mikage's, Kazama's and Ushio's and Yuusei's and we have Sherry's last as well as a bonus chapter that deals with the aftermath of the stories. You can thank me for the exposition later.
