The sky was still red…

It was like Yaldabaoth all over again, at least in the eyes of a certain leader of Thieves as he watched from a cafe window in Shounen City, with Morgana, his sidekick, on edge.

Joker was quite on edge. And he was certain something had happened.

"Jokerrrrrrr~!" One of his girlfriends, Ann Takamaki, AKA the Phantom Thief known as Panther, said as she tried to get his attention, before he looked at her. "Why can't we go out? Who cares if the sky is red, you can just pull out your Persona and fight whoever tries to fuck with you."

Joker rolled his eyes at how laid back Ann could be sometimes. "It's not a matter of that, it's a matter of being careful and cautious. We don't want a repeat of Christmas Eve now, do we?" Joker asked, reminding her of the day they fought Yaldabaoth.

And almost fucking died.

Ann pouted before she sat next to Joker. "Can you at least try to think about something other than a red sky?"

Morgana shot a rubber pellet with his slingshot at Ann. "Stop being horny for one damn second," Morgana said to her, before she pulled out a whip and tried to hit him with it.

"Shut up you fucking damn raccoon cat thing!" Ann shouted at him, while Joker rolled his eyes and cocked his gun, which made both of them stop their bullshit instantly. Ann leaned against Joker. "Sorry baby~..."

"Calm down, and think about what you say," Joker said to her, before Sojiro, the man who owned the cafe Joker slept in and called home, walked upstairs to look at three in the room.

"You got a guest," Sojiro said simply, before heading back downstairs, which made Joker sigh as he went downstairs, with Ann and Morgana following him.

To the surprise of Joker, Ann, and Morgana, it was the protagonists of Persona 3 and 4, along with the Female Protagonist for Persona 3 Portable. Respectively named in the order given, was Minato Arisato, Yu Narukami, and Minako Arisato.

"The hell are you guys doing here?" Joker asked his predecessors of the Persona Series.

"Well, for starters," Yu began as he sat down at one of the booths, "the sky has turned red. That's not a good sign."

"Are you a fucking idiot?" Minato questioned as he looked at his successor. "We already know that the sky is red! This has been established for a long time!"

"He's trying to start a conversation," Minako said as she put a hand on her alternate self's shoulder, and calmed him down for the most part.

Joker merely shrugged. "Well, we might need to gather our groups and start investigating. If some other god decides to try and fuck up the world again, we need everyone on standby," Joker stated, with the other protagonists nodding.

It would happen to be at this moment the door to the cafe opened, to reveal Cell and Kermit walking into the cafe. "Now this," Kermit began as he looked at the place, "is fucking nice."

Joker just stared at them in disbelief. "...what the fuck did you two idiots do this time?"

"Blame the author," Cell stated as he looked at Joker. "He got's OC Issues."

"Of course," Joker said, not surprised.

"I'm sorry, you know this bug man?" Narukami asked Joker, who merely nodded.

"Yeah, that's Cell, and his sidekick Kermit the Frog," Joker told the leader of the Investigation Team from Persona 4.

"Heh, that's a classic," Sojiro commented though no one acknowledged him talking about the old Dragon Ball Z.

"Anyways, we need your help to stop the idiot OC of the author's as well as regain control of the DAU," Cell said to Joker, who looked at Cell seriously. "We need all the allies we can get since this is going to be a war and a half that we're fighting."

"Finally, what I was craving more than fighting Shadows," Joker said, before suddenly he was coated in blue flames, which died down rather quickly, putting him in his Phantom Thief outfit. "It's showtime."

"So, this one guy is the reason why the sky is red?" Minato questioned, before he had a gun in his right hand. "Right, give me a time and date. I wanna kill him." Minako nodded, agreeing with Minato.

"I'll come too," Narukami said while standing up. "We'll need all the help we get! Plus with Izanagi-no-Okami and my friends, we can surely-"

"If you don't bitching about how friendship is magic," Minato began as he slowly turned his head to glare at Narukami while the camera turned red, "I will kill you."

Narukami went silent, before Minako said to her other other self, "Calm down, he's not worth wasting your energy on." Minato merely grumbled before they left to go gather the members of S.E.E.S. and left the others to look at them.

Cell and Kermit merely looked at each other, confused as to what the fuck they had gotten themselves into.

These next few recruitment chapters shall be shorter for the sake of keeping it plain and simple while we wait for the main battle to begin later on in this story. So… yeah. TwT

To be continued in the next chapter, with Shallot.
