Hey everyone i had some time to think over and i will try to get threw the whole series as normal. I hope that i'm doing decently well writing and i have more ideas for stories (Probably a one shot of a stupid cross). Also from now on I am gonna make it easier to identify when Barbara is thinking to herself (Like this). Enough of me bantering. Let's go.
The next week Barbara was noticing that the trio of students were hanging out more and more. They went back to the ally where they disappeared. Barbara tried to question Ann about what happened but she shrugged it off very quickly.
"No we just decided to run to get some exercise ya know?"
Barbara nodded and walked back to her classroom.
Something was amiss but she was focused more on teaching and fighting crime to worry. She did not think someone like Akira would try to get himself in trouble. But he seem to keep up with his studies very well.
She did spend her time trying to research what a "Persona" was but all she came up with was a psychological stand point of personalities. Barbara was also good at listening to rumors around the school as time went on. Being the youngest member of staff had its perks but that also resulted in getting hit on by Kamoshida.
Everything was mundane until the day before the school assembly. The hall were littered with red paper with a list of crimes that Kamoshida has committed.
"Who the hell did this?!" Kamoshida screamed. Barbara taking a look at the paper more closely she saw that a group called "The Phantom Thieves" were gonna steal his "Heart". Barbara went to the receptionist.
"Can i take the day off please? I think i'm gonna barf."She lied.
The lady nodded her head and directed her to the excit. Once she was out she went to get her gear. Literal or not they were gonna commit a crime. She got to an ally and changed before she took off into the sky. She stealthly watch over the gym teacher to make sure he wasn't in danger. She hoped that the trio was not involved in this as she grappled from building to building when the day was done keeping a close eye on him.
But nothing was off. Giving up she decided that it was just a prank pulled by some students. Maybe she would have to give disciplinary action.
The next day
Arriving at the school assembly everyone was set to see the volleyball coach boast about his team.
"Now can i please invite to the stage our very own Kamoshida!"
He entered the auditorium everyone stopped clapping he had a face filled with guilt. His eyes were swollen from tears, he looked like he didn't eat for hours.
"Im am sorry everyone, I am not the man you think I am."
Everyone gasped stunned, Barbara included. She watched him all night and there was no evidence to see that he was attacked.
Now now… everyone relax, What are you doing Suguru?" The principal said in a hushed tone.
"I have failed as a role model to this school. I know there is no forgiveness for what I have done. After I had abused the team, harassed our own students even causing one to almost kill herself there is no forgiveness. I will give my own life to atone for my wrong doings."
At this Barbara rushed outside to suit up. As much as she hated the man Bruce would be pissed if she allowed this again.
The students could not believe what they heard. Kamoshida pulled a knife from his pants ready to take his life.
"YOU COWARD!" Ann shouted from the crowd. Kamoshida stopped and looked at her with pain in his eyes. "Is this what Shiho would want face your guilt head on and redeem yourself."
Kamoshida knife still in hand was hesitating. Just what Barbara needed, in her batsuit she slammed into him causing him to drop the knife.
"Kamoshida you are under arrest for abuse and sexual harassment." Kamoshida crying again shouting "Thank you please arrest me for I have done wrong."
Later
Barbara was relieved that justice was served but it did not fill her stomach. She while looking for a place to eat she spotted Akira and his friends outside a fancy buffet.
"Man o man the food will be delicious" Ryuji shouted. "So many sweets!" Ann spoke in a daze imagining the many cakes inside.
"Do you mind if I join you guys, I will help pay?" Barbara said as she was walking up to the group with a credit card in hand. Both Ryuji and Ann were startled while Akira remained cool.
"Miss Gordon, What are you doing here?"
"I was gonna get a bit to eat when I saw you three. Plus just call me Barb, I don't work at the school any more."
"Why not"
"There is a lot of press there now and I was planning on quitting a long time ago. I'm gonna myself up as a tutor."
"That awesome Mis- I mean Barb. Maybe you can help knumbskull here with is bad scores." teased Ann.
"Shut up." Ryuji spoke with a little embarrassment.
"Why are you guys here? This is a bit expensive buffet."
"Oh umm Akira has been saving his money for this little spluge right dude?"
"I thought for what has happened we should feast for new change in the school." Akira said keeping an eye on Barbara
"I totally agreed." Barbara replied "Come on let's not stand out here."
Later
After that feast Barbara went back to her room to fully sleep for what seemed like ages. As she was dreaming she saw a little man who had a big nose that only Cobblepot would match with prison cells behind him. Be side him were two girls with eye patches on opposite eyes.
"Well Well isn't this a surprise. I don't normally invite people who have not awaken here but for you i will make an exception."
"Where am I?"
"Not important at the moment, I see your fate is tied with our prisoner." Barbara looked over at a cell to see Akira in prison garb.
"What did you do to him? Akira are you ok!"
Hush you are only a visitor unless you wish to join him" both girls spoke as one.
"He can't see or hear you but I hope you trust him with your secret as he will trust you with his. This will be the last you will see of me so take care."
Barbara woke up in a cold sweat. The dream seemed to real. This only confirms that Akira was hiding something. She decide to leave that for another day.
ARC 1 DONE. WOW I can't believe that I been able to keep this up for a while now. This chapter may seem a bit of stretch for time but I decide to work on the next arc in the story. I will have to rewatch some gameplay before I post next chapter and I'm excited to work on this. Have a good day.
