Hey guys and gals welcome to my new and this time around we'll be doing something special for 2024
Much like last year I have gotten into a new series over the last break, that has inspired me to begin working on a new oneshot
What will this oneshot be about, well this story is going to be a new crossover that has nothing to do with a Toku, and will be replacing Legend of Kuuga since I have lost motivation for that story.
Instead this will be a crossover with Persona 5 and My Hero Academia, I had trouble picking what would be good with Persona 5 but decided the themes match the best with BNHA
I will also be following the manga version of Persona 5, as the pacing is a bit better there.
So with that said, how about we get this done.
Casino
Third person P.O.V.
At the city of tokyo we see a gigantic flashy building with neon lights and helicopters flying around the building.
Inside we see the building was in fact a casino, filled to the brim with hundreds of people gambling away their money and having a fun time.
But among these people were some in a black suits with black shades, giving a clear agent vibe which the others around them noticed, especially when the suits were knocking them back to get through.
"Geez, what's their problem-huh?" One of the guests, as he heard an audible whoosh from above.
"W-What is that?" One of the other guests, as the whoosh began to get more noticeable to them.
"I-Is someone there" "What could it be!" "I-Is it some kind of villain?" The guests murmured, as some of them began leaving the building while more suited people moved in.
"UP THERE!" One of them called out, as he pointed to the figure now standing on one of the large decorated lights catching the suit's attention.
It was a man that looked to be about 20 years old or even older with curly black hair and red coloured eyes, his outfit consists of a black ankle-length tailcoat, a high-necked waistcoat with gold accents, cinched black pants, brown-black winklepickers boots with taller heels and a pair of red gloves. Over his eyes is a white, birdlike domino mask with black designs around the eyes reminiscent of full eyeliner and sharp lashes, in his arms was a silver briefcase.
"There he is" "Quickly, we have to get him" The suits yelled, as they rushed after them.
"Heh, looks I got their attention" He said, with a smirk on his face before placing the briefcase down and jumping away.
"Alright, I hid the treasure! They shouldn't think to check here if I make enough noise, "he said, before landing on top of one of the structures.
Mona: Good, now get running
Crow: This is our only chance!
Oracle: Just stay calm and get out of there.
Queen: We can take care of the package, just focus on your escape
"Hehe, alright I'll trust you!" The man said, before running ahead, jumping from structure to structure.
Mona: I have to say though, showing yourself to the public was an excellent move, nice one Joker.
"Heh thank you kindly!" the now named Joker said, jumping on to the chandelier before dashing ahead
Panther: Yeah I don't think Skull would be able to pull off anything like this.
Fox: It's true, you don't really have a flare for the aesthetics
Skull: Nobody was talking about that Inari!.
"Alright alright that's enough! Kinda running for my life here" Joker sweatdropped, before blinking at the suits coming out of his escape route.
"There he is!" "Don't let him escape!".
"Uh Oracle, got any suggestions!" Joker asked, looking around for where he should go.
Oracle:There should be an escape route to your left above the elevator!
Joker nodded at that, as he began jumping from structure to structure towards the vip area above the elevator.
"Okay now where to- oh come on!" Joker said, as he saw more suits running towards him before their bodies began flinching, with their skin turning black in colour with a silver mask.
Oracle: Don't worry there just some Shadows, you know what to do Joker
As Oracle said that, another of these Shadows landed behind him making the young man smirk.
The shadow rushed towards him but Joker dashed past him before jumping onto his back.
"Now show me your true form!" He demanded, gripping the shadows mask before forcibly ripping it off, causing the shadows to explode.
"Oooh well aren't you a 'pretty' ol guy" Joker said, as he saw the shadow transforming into what looked like a minotaur but with a mechanical snake like lower half "How's it look Oracle?".
Oracle: Do you even have to ask? They're no match for you! Go Wild Joker!
"Gladly!" He yelled, pulling out a knife before dashing towards the monster.
The monster swung its tail at Joker who leapt over the attack before slashing at the monster several times before jumping back.
He followed this attack by pulling out his gun and shooting a bullet right through the monster head causing it to dissolve into dust.
He then stood up while smirking before blinking and moving out of the way from a slash from a humanoid cheetah like monster.
"Shit guess I forgot about those two" he said, looking at the two humanoid cheetah-like monsters which dashed towards him.
"Alright, your turn partner!" he said, jumping back while pulling off his mask "PERSONA!"
This caused an aura of blue flames to cover his body, which soon formed into the shape of a demon-like monster in what looked like a top hat with two large wings.
"ARSENE! MAEIHA!" He commanded, as the monster raised its hand before its red eyes flashed.
Two pools of crimson red energy formed underneath the monster much to their confusion before it suddenly burst it out.
This caused the two to scream out in pain as the red energy pierced their bodies before they exploded into a mass of a black ash.
"Phew, that was cool" Joker said, before the aura moved back to his face reforming the mask "Now to find that escape route".
Mona: Good, you took care of them swiftly.
Oracle: Joker! More is coming! There's an exit right above you!
"Right! Arsene!" he said, as the aura reappeared around his body but this time only the monster's wings formed around his back.
He then used these wings to fly up towards the higher floor before the guards could move in and attack him.
Landing on the ground, with the wings disappearing, Joker quickly dashed through the fire exit into the employee only area of the casino.
Oracle: Okay Joker, keep avoiding people. I'm looking for a new escape route for you now.
Skull: Dude can he even hear him.
Oracle: Hehe, don't worry I'm picking up everything, just focus on your escape.
As this conversation went on, Joker opened a nearby door only to quickly take cover as on a window opposite him was one of the guards.
"Damn it, where is he?" the suit said, before taking a call "Still haven't confirmed the intruders location, continuing on".
"It's like the whole building is looking for us, geez" Joker said, watching the suit run down the hall and was about to continue on.
Oracle: Wait Joker don't!
"Huh?" He blinked, before spotting another suit standing at the nearby door forcing him to hide in the shadows.
"Are you sure he came this way…alright, I'll continue my search" The suit asked, looking around.
Crow: They're on to you! You need to find an alternate route
Oracle: I know! I know! Just give me a minute.
As this was happening, Joker spotted a metal bridge up on the next floor and made him smirk "Actually I think I got an idea".
Summoning his Persona again, this time coming out of his hand, Joker shot a metal chain towards the pipe underneath, using it to pull himself up and towards the metal bridge.
Mona: Nice thinking Joker!
Noir: Quite the stylish escape route, as to be expected.
"Now gotta move!" he said, rushing in ahead towards the closest door only to blink and jump back at several bullets shooting towards him.
"Shit" he said, looking at the Shadows marching towards him.
Joker growled a bit, before turning around only to blink and move back as two more shadows appeared behind him.
Panther: O-Oh no you're surrounded! You can't fight that many Joker!
Skull: D-Damn it! Don't worry buddy! I'm coming.
Oracle: Wait you idiot! Joker, I'm detecting more people coming your way.
"More people?" Joker blinked, before looking at the entrance as two blurs rushed towards him.
"What the?!" Joker blinked, before crossing his arms but the blues didn't hit him and instead attacked the Shadows around him before landing behind him.
"Looks like now I'm the one protecting you Senpai" "Yeah, we've finally paid you back for everything you've done for us".
Joker smirked at the two voices before turning around to see who he was saved by.
The first was a girl that had red hair tied into a ponytail and red eyes, with a black mask with silver highlights and had a black ribbon tied to her ponytail. Her main outfit consists of a strapless black leotard with a sweetheart neckline, a chain belt with two silver rose motifs, and a scabbard for her rapier attached to it, a black choker and red gloves. Her black bolero jacket has gold buttons, ruffled flared sleeves and three floor-length coattails. She wears thigh-length hose and stiletto lace-up pumps that resemble ballet shoes on the top.
The other was a male teen with shaggy green hair and big eyes with pupils as green as his hair. He was wearing a dark green jumpsuit with white pads and black lines going through it, along with black elbow and knee pads, white arm gloves, big red boots and a silver gas mask hanging from the collar.
"Hehe! Surprised Senpa-ow!" The girl yelped, as Joker chopped both of his juniors heads.
"Ow! What was that for" The green haired teen asked, as Joker looked at them deadpanned.
"I dunno how about you guys following us into a super dangerous palace with no experience in this stuff, even though I specifically told you not to follow us" Joker stated, making the two sweatdrop.
"S-Sorry Senpai but we couldn't just sit around and do nothing when we knew you were going to risk your life" The red haired teen said, as the green haired turned his head.
"Wait a minute…did you know we were there?" he asked, making Joker look at them with a smug smirk.
"Well yeah, stealth isn't really what you guys are suited for" He said, crossing his arms "Why do you ask?".
"Well if you know we were here, why didn't you call us out! We could have helped you back there" The green haired teen questioned, as Joker looked away.
"Well…." Joker said, rubbing the nose on his mask before spotting the Shadows bodies twitching "Hold up guys, we're not done yet!"
The shadowy bodies transformed into various monsters, including a pair of humanoid cheetah-like monsters and a red bird-like monster.
"W-Wha?! H-How are they doing this" The Green haired teen said, surprised while the Red haired teen looked at him.
"Yeah, I was surprised the first time too" She said, before drawing her sword while looking over at Joker "Let us help you out Senpai".
"Heh, like I can convince you two not to" Joker said, before smirking and readying his knife "Alright, It's showtime!".
The red haired teen rushed in, slashing her sword several times at the Cheetah monster with swift and beautiful movements.
The monster blocked several of the attacks with its two swords but it was hit a few times by her sword.
"HAH!" The Green haired teen yelled, with a sparking aura around him as he jumped up and kicked the other Cheetah monster who blocked the attacks with his sword.
The Cheetah monster skidded back a bit, as the teens' attack sent energy into the sword before it swung the blades.
This sent an energy wave towards the Teen forcing him to dodge the attack.
Meanwhile Joker was dashing towards the bird monster as it floated above him.
THe monster sneered at Joker, before flapping its wings sending winds slashes towards the Phantom Thief.
Joker easily dodged these attacks before jumping into the air and grabbing the monster's legs, surprising the monster as it was dragged to the ground.
"Guys! Move them to one spot!" Joker yelled, as the other two looked up at him and nodded.
"Oh I see what you're doing! Sure thing!" The Green haired teen said, as he jumped before throwing several kicks at the monster.
"If you think it's a good idea, then sure thing Senpai" The red haired teen nodded, as she thrusted her rapier several times at the monster.
This caused the two monsters to crash into each other making Joker smirked "And now my turn".
Gripping the monster's bird's legs, Joker jumped into it before throwing the monster, sending it crashing towards the other two monsters.
"Leave these guys to us Senpai, you need to get out of here" The red haired teen said, as Joker nodded before turning around.
"Wait you need to be careful though, there are Pro Heroes here as well" The Green Haired teen warned him, as Joker looked back.
"Heroes huh? Didn't realise I was that popular" Joker said, with a smirk while pulling his glove "Don't worry though, I know how to deal with them..., side they should have been weakened by now...but first actually".
Joker then moved up to The Green haired teen and whispered into his ear making the boys eyes widen as he looked up at the Phantom Thief.
Joker winked at him and then dashed ahead as his two Kouhai dealt with the remaining monsters.
Oracle: Okay, I have no idea what that was about but just focus on escaping
As this was happening we see Joker making it to the camera room, where he saw tons of people working on the computers while others were checking the cameras
"He's not alone, make sure you capture all of them!" One of the people in the room stated, not noticing their target was sneaking right past them and towards the staircase.
Oracle: You're just a little bit- wait no!
"Huh, what's wrong- oh" Joker said, as he saw two pro heroes standing in front of him, with a large square shaped terrace behind them leading to a large window.
"Stop! You insidious Villain!" The first hero said dramatically, as he pointed at Joker.
This hero was called Kamui Woods who had a wood mask only showing his eyes. He was wearing a dark blue bodysuit that included a wooden belt, wooden knee pads, and wooden shoes. A small bundle of roses hangs from the left side of his belt and hanging on his shoulders were two wooden rings, which have stumps and branches protruding from them.
"Huh so that's one of the big bad Phantom Thieves, more scrawny than I expected" The other hero said in a casual tone as he leaned on the terrace.
He has feathery, ash blond hair that is swept messily backward, with some of the front tufts sticking up in arcs above his head. His eyebrows are notably thick and he has faint stubble on his chin as well as gold coloured eyes and on his back was a pair of red hero costume resembles an aviator's uniform; he wears a black shirt with a wavy golden pattern, over which he has a modified tan jacket with a high collar and slits over his shoulders to accommodate his wings; the insides and cuffs of the sleeves are lined with white fur, and black gloves. He has a red square-shaped lobe piercing in each ear.
Skull: Holy friggin shit! That's the number 7 Pro Hero, Kamui Woods, and number 2 Pro Hero! Hawks!
Panther: I knew some Heroes showed up as well, but from the top ten!
Queen: You have no choice, Joker! You'll have to fight them
"Or maybe not" Joker whispered, as he spotted some shadows coming from the door near them.
"Well what do you have to say for yourself villain" Kamui woods stated, as Joker raised his arms.
"D-Don't h-hurt me p-please!" Joker desperately pleaded much to the hero's surprise and confusion, before Joker quickly shifted to a malicious smirk.
"Did you seriously think I'd say that?" he said, before revealing a smoke bomb in his hand throwing it at the ground causing a huge explosion of smoke blinding them.
"W-What where did he go!" Kamui woods said, looking around but couldn't see anything due to the smoke.
Hawks raised his wings while closing his mind, with the wings vibrating a bit but he waited a few moments before he opened his eyes and pointed in a certain direction "He's over there!".
"We have you! Bark Spear!" Kamui Woods yelled, as he extended his two arms towards the direction Hawks were pointing, managing to pierce something.
"AAAAAAAHHHH PURE AGONY!"` The voice of Joker yelled, catching the hero's attention before the smoke dispersed what really happened "Not~".
Joker was currently on the shoulders of two shadows that were being pierced by Kamui Woods attack.
"You would use citizens as human shields! You truly are a monster!" Kamui woods yelled, as Joker rolled his eyes.
"Yeah not exactly" He said, before looking down at the Shadows "Hey you guys are pretty pissed at them right? Then how about you show your true form and god wild".
Gripping their masks Joker forcibly ripped them off while jumping into the air, allowing the Shadows
The first looked like a humanoid horse with a large hat and a cloak while the other looked like a woman with red skin and wild black hair, biting into Bamboo, with sharp blade-like nails and no legs, floating there like a ghost.
"WHAT IN THE WORLD?!" The two heroes yelled, looking at the monsters.
"Heroes, meet Kumbhanda and Rangda, they don't really like trespassers so probably would have been best not to piss them off" Joker said, as before turning towards the window "So have fun and adieu".
Joker watched as the two monsters rushed towards the Heroes, while Joker took the chance to crash through the window.
Oracle: What a showoff, you're so reckless you know that
"I'll take that as a compliment" he said, as he fell before landing onto the ground "Now to leave this place and-huh?!".
Suddenly several began shining at him as Joker saw a gigantic crowd of armed policemen, all aiming their guns and lights at him.
Oracle: Enemies here too?! Wait it can't be
Skull: What's wrong, what happened.
Queen: An ambush?! So those were the real Heroes!
Mona: Joker can you handle this!
Fox: Joker!
Noir: Oh no!
"After him!" The police yelled, as they all rushed towards the Phantom Thief who had a serious look on his face before he reached for his mask.
"Persona!" He yelled, ripping off his mask as it turned into blue flames, before changing into the shape of the gigantic demon.
"W-What in the world!" The police gawked, looking at the flaming silhouette of a Demon behind him before Joker raised his hand.
"Handle them!" he commanded, as the Demon just grinned before dashing towards the police and flapping its wings, causing a wind that pushed them back.
Joker then took this chance to escape as he tried reaching towards the scaffolding of the building nearby.
However when he tried climbing the ladder, he was met by a group of police who used the end of their gun to knock him towards the ground.
The demon noticed this and flew back to his partner to protect him from the fall, but this only allowed the rest of the police to rush him and force him to the ground.
"Suspect has been secured sir" One officer said, as we see a suited man walk up to Joker
"Wasn't expecting some kid" he said, before grabbing Joker by the hair and lifting him up "You have your teammate to thank for all of this".
"W-What!" Joker said, with widened eyes making the smirk "That's right~ You were sold out".
"Cuff him boys" The suited man said, before getting up and walking off as Joker's arms were handcuffed.
Interrogation room
Third person P.O.V.
Underground the head police station we see Joker now out of his suit but instead a school uniform, which consists of a red-buttoned black blazer with Shujin's emblem on the pocket, a white turtleneck shirt with chevron detailing on the collar and slim red pants with a plaid pattern.
Currently he was handcuffed on a chair while unconscious with an empty syringe next to him
"Wake 'em up." A voice commanded, as a bucket of water was then thrown after the voice commanded onto a boy that looked as if he was still in high school.
Darkness faded from his vision to reveal a bleak and intimidating interrogation room, a camera panned over him for a second before roaming back across the small room.
After his vision settled he attempted to move, but was chained back by handcuffs.
"Amamiya Ren, a not so normal Highschooler, currently staying in the city on Probation after a case of assault" the man said, as the now named Ren looked around the room in a daze.
"You still have no clue, do you? Just give it up already!" The voice said, kicking the boy off the chair, which broke into pieces and onto the floor.
"Gah, that woke me up" Ren groaned, before the man stepped his heel onto the boy's head "Come on, cooperate, or else we're gonna have to get more creative"
"Tru…st me…not a lot…you can do…that competes with what I've seen" Ren grinted, before the boy felt a drip of water spill from his still soaking hair.
The camera once again panned over to him and he stared intently at it.
"...What...? You think it can be used as some kind of evidence?" The man asked, also looking at the camera now, then pulling on the boy's hair.
"No, I'm just wondering what sick freak is getting off watching you beat the shit out of me, YOU HEAR THAT YOU SICK FU-ACK!" Ren yelled, and was slammed against the wall.
"Quite the mouth on this brat, not gonna lie, pretty satisfying to kick his face in!" The man yelled, kicking the boy in the throat.
Blood spurted out along with the air that was contained in the boy's lungs "S-So you were that sick fuck".
The man clicked his tongue and got back up, approaching his helper once more and grabbed a clipboard, reading it top to bottom before sighing and turning around. =
"Obstruction of justice, defamation, blackmail. And I'm only reading those first three." The man looked down just for a moment more.
"Even manslaughter too? I guess looks really can be deceiving... To think you were the leader of this group and their actions as well..." he said, looking at Ren as he swayed back and forth.
'Everythings all a blur…have…to stay awake…but…why do I have to' he said, his eyes feeling heavy.
"You should have known your place" he said, snapping his finger as the helper walked up and uncuffed him.
"Wait, wha?" Ren blinked, looking at the marks on his wrist before being met with a contract.
"I need you to sign this, it's a confession under your na-" the suited man said, but Ren pushed it away.
"I only need your hands to sign this contract, but it doesn't matter if you lose a leg!" he yelled, before stepping on Ren's heel causing him to grit his teeth in pain.
"Now sign the contract" he said, tossing it to Ren before looking at him closely "And don't you expect to come out of here in one piece, we'll make you understand that people like you aren't needed in this society".
"And bullshit assholes like you are why we did what we did" he muttered, before gripping the pen and signing the paper.
"Yet you still signed" The man in the suit smirked, taking the board before standing up but then the doors opened.
"Well looks like you've done a number on him" they heard, before looking over at who just entered the room.
"And who the hell are you?" The suited man asked, with a raised eyebrow at their new member.
It was a tall and beautiful woman with upper-back length, ashen-brown hair that is asymmetrically parted on her right side and brown eyes that are sometimes depicted with a hint of mauve red. She wears a black business suit with a black turtleneck. Her blazer's cuffs and the lower front have clamshell-like designs, and around her neck was a necklace, as well as hair clips on her hair and a pair of earrings. She has violet fingernails and wears dark grey pantyhose with black high heels and a black bag slung over her shoulder.
"I'm Prosecutor Sae Nijima, I've come to ask a few questions to the Suspect for my case" she stated, as the man smirked.
"No can do, we've already gotten him to sign a full confession" he said, handing her the board as she looked it over.
"This says 'eat my ass cows' and it's followed by a picture of a butt" Sae said, making the man's eyes widened while Ren just snickered.
"You mother fu-grr, fine! He's all yours but we'll be back" the suited man said, before walking off leaving Sae and Ren alone.
A few moments later we see the two sitting opposite of each other on the table, with Sae crossing her arms.
"Have to admit, I got lucky that you decided to do that and that you were captured by the Police at all, if it was the Heroes we wouldn't be talking right now" Sae said, as Ren just looked down with a tired look "He got what he deserved".
An awkward silence was shared between the two as Sae looked down "...I never expected it would have been you, Amamiya-kun…but for now you'll be answering my questions"
Her eyes widened with a gasp as she spotted the empty Syringe on the ground "Those bastards…to someone so young".
"Can you hear me? It seems they put you through a lot" Sae questioned, while Ren rubbed his head "Just barely"
"Listen, anything can happen here, to you at least, and no officials will care, that's why I need you to explain everything" Sae said, as Ren noted the slight desperation in her voice.
"What was your objective here? Why would you cause such a major incident!" she said, with a serious look before looking down "I suspected it wasn't a prank from the get go, but it was almost impossible to assemble a case for prosecution without a method".
"Of course… you couldn't find one…who would have believed all that" Ren said, swaying a bit.
"True, I was suspecting something along the lines of a brainwashing quirk or a truth telling quirk…but there would have been no way I could have been convinced about that 'world'...just by reading the reports" Sae said, before moving some hair away.
"At least you seem coherent so answer me this, where and when did you discover this 'other world' and those powers you were seen using" she questioned, as Ren looked down "How is it even possible to 'steal another's heart'?"
"Now tell me your account of everything, start from the very beginning" Sae said, as Ren held his head.
Closing his eyes for only a moment, when he opened them up she found that Sae's movements had slowed to a crawl.
'This is…' he thought, before noticing a glowing blue butterfly fly past him.
"You are being held captive, a true prisoner of fate." A feminine voice said to Ren, as he watched the Butterflies movements.
"This is truly an unjust game, while the chance of winning is nearly none. But if my voice is reaching you, then you have still got a chance to change your fate. I beg of you, please, save the world." The voice almost sounded familiar to Ren, but not completely the same.
"The truth lies in the memories in your bonds, the same truth that you and your friends grasped." she said, as Ren gripped his head "My…friends?"
"It all began that day, all those months ago. For your own future, and the world's, please try and remember!"
Ren watched the butterfly disappear before he closed his eyes remembering how all of this first started on that day.
Opening: Flyers from Death Parade, lyrics be Leeandlie
WOAH! OH! WOAH! OH! OH! YEAH! YEAH!
In the middle of the city we see a gigantic statue of the number 1 hero All Might, however on his chest was a spray painted logo of a top hat and mask with flame coming out the eyes.
YEAH! YEAH! OW!
We then see a blur zoom past the statue, with the camera barely following its movements.
It's your haze of delusion versus reality
We see Joker running from rooftop to rooftop, with a light shinning on him as several helicopters chased after him
Just keep stirring the pot to find your individuality
Arsene then flew up behind him before Joker jumped off the rooftop and grabbed his partners Chain to help him fly.
Delete another problem that is plaguing your mind
We next see Skull running down the highway as several police cars chased after him, a wild grin on his face as he ran
From day to day! To end to end! That's entertainment of our lives
Captain kidd then sailed up and caught Skull as he cheered into the night sky, as face of pure joy behind him
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! Dancing through the skies
Several paint marks were slashed at the walls, as we see Fox painting everything in the alleyway around him
Let's celebrate our time, and party while we're still alive
He then spun around as Goemon showed and blew his smoke allowing the paint to glow revealing he had painted different hero poster and stop signs.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! Dancing through the skies
Panther then jumped down onto some train tracks and began dancing, as she began spinning around like a Ballerina
Kick your worries to the side and aim up to the sky.
Carmine then appeared behind her, and below a flaming tornado that spun around her as she smiled up at the beauty.
EVERYBODY! Put your hands up!
We see Queen riding on Johana with Mona on her back, as the two of them drove up an elevator through a window.
We'll be flying~ Can you imagine it?
We see a large UFO flying above the city with Oracle inside, before she tapped a few commands into it
Search and you'll find the stage set within your dreams.
The UFO then began flashing several colours like a Disco Ball that lit up the entire city.
The place where you're the one
Down below we see Noir and Milady dancing like in a ball on Shibuya crossing before the two spun around.
That's where you're meant to be!
Noir then struck a pose as Milday revealed the variety of guns below her dress.
EVERYBODY!
We then see the Thieves falling through the sky towards a variety of statues of Pro Heroes.
Put your hands up!
We see both Panther and Mona aiming firing their guns at a statue of Ryukyu which crumbled into pieces.
We'll be flying!
Then Skull and Fox quickly moved past a large statue Edgeshot, cutting it in half.
Can you imagine it?
Next we see Queen and Noir crashing, punching the large stature of endeavor into pieces.
Search and you'll find the stage you set within your dreams
In the UFO we see Oracle typing in a few more codes with a grin on her face, before snapping her fingers causing her UFO to drop a huge bomb towards the All Might statue.
The place where you're the one, that's where you're meant to be
Joker then grinned as Arsene threw him towards the bomb which he shot with his pistol causing a huge explosion of colours.
FLYIN! Within these memories!
We see the whole team of Phantom Thieves cheering at the beautiful explosion they were witnessing.
FLYING! That you're slowly forgetting!
Joker smirked before he spun around and landed towards the ground as train passed by him.
Just listen close to the song that lies within you~
Ren then gets up in his school uniform with Morgana in his bag, before he waved to us and walked back towards the crowd of people passing by.
Soul~
My Hero Academia! The Value of a Thief!
Day 1
Train
Third person P.O.V.
'Please somebody help me!'
'Shut the hell up and get in the car'
'Hey! What are you doing!'
'You little bastard! I'll sue!'
"Ah!" Ren blinked, as he found himself in a train which was completely filled with people.
Looking around the train Ren found he was in Shibuya, reminding him of why he was here.
'That's right…this is my last chance…' he said, a frown on his face as he leaned back and rested his eyes.
BOOM!
"H-Hey! Look!" "It's one of the heroes!" "They gotta be a villain!" "Is that a new one!".
Ren blinked at that before looking up to see the Passengers looking out the window, following their gazes he found a giant hero fighting a giant villain in the middle of the city.
'Heroes huh…, guess I can forget that dream' he thought, before taking out his phone and blinking in confusion.
'When did I get this app?' he wondered, as he saw on his phone a red and black app with the picture of an eye on it.
He was about to press the app to delete it but it suddenly grew bigger before his phone flashed.
"What the" he said, covering his eyes before shaking his head.
"What was that about…wait a minute" Ren questioned, as he noticed the train had stopped moving 'A-Are we there?'
Standing up only made Ren more confused as he saw that the passengers around him were frozen in place.
"Okay, this is weird…huh?"
Looking out the window confused Ren even more as he saw replacing the heroes battling was a gigantic blue flame.
"If the path of a Hero is unreachable to you" A voice said in his head, as he saw the flame taking the form of some winged demon.
"Then perhaps there is another form of Justice more fitting for you" For a moment Ren saw the flame disperse, revealing a copy of himself but with gold eyes and a malicious grin.
WE HAVE ARRIVED AT SHIBUYA STATION, THIS IS THE FINAL STOP SO PLEASE DEPART IF YOU WISH TO TRANSFER.
"Huh?" Ren blinked, as he found that things were back to normal before he shook his head.
"What was that about?" he said, checking the app on his phone before he swiftly deleted it and went on with his business.
'Alright…just have to get to Cafe…Leblanc? And that's in…where's Yongen-jaya" Ren questioned, as he left the train.
Yongen-Jaya
Cafe Leblanc
Third person P.O.V.
"So…this is the place" Ren said, as he looked up to see a small cafe in the back streets of the city.
This place was called Cafe Leblanc, a small cafe hidden in the alleyways that specialises in Coffee and Curry, which is now Ren's new place of residence.
Opening the door Ren was met with the small retro cafe, with only two people on the tables and a man on the counter reading a crossword puzzle.
Behind him stood a large collection of coffee beans of different varieties and coming from the kitchen was the distinct scent of curry.
"This just in, another traffic accident has occurred outside of Shibuya, luckily Heroes managed to arrive at the scene and rescued the passengers who came out with only a few injuries, the police have reported they are currently interrogating the Bus Driver for the truth"
"How frightening" An elderly man said, while looking at the tv while his wife looked down "Thank goodness the heroes arrived just in time".
"What could be going on? Didn't something similar to this happen just the other day" The old lady questioned.
"Hmm, vertical is…a type of shellfish used for Pearl Farming…ugh, what could it be?" he heard, trying to figure it out as Ren walked up.
"Uh try Mussels, I'm pretty sure that's it" Ren said, making the man blink before looking up and sighing.
"Ah, that's right they did say it was today" he sighed, putting his crossword puzzle down "You're quite late kid".
"We'll be going now" the elderly man said, as he and his wife got up "Money already on the table".
"Ah yes, thank you very much" the man said, as he watched the couple walk off.
"6 hours only for two cups of coffee" he said, before looking over at Ren "So, what took you so long".
"Sorry, couldn't really wrap my head around the train schedule and lines" Ren apologised, rubbing his head before crossing his arms "So you're Soujiro Sakura right?"
Sojiro is a middle-aged man. He has slicked-back dark hair with a receding hairline, grey eyes, a chinstrap beard with a goatee that flares out and wears glasses. His outfit consists of a pale pink dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up, pale khakis held up with a white leather belt and white loafers. He also has a black apron with a white pinstripe design on it and has his pants legs folded up to mid calf.
"That's right, and you better not forget it" he said, rubbing his head "I was wondering what kind of unruly kid your dad had sent, you are Amamiya…"
"Ren…Amamiya Ren" he said, before gulping "Hey, so I saw a hero attack going on in the city and the news said something about 'another' accident, is something going on?"
"Heroes?" Soujiro said, before sighing "You really are just like your father, but it's out of my business, just follow me".
"I'm not like my dad" Ren grumbled under his breath, as he followed Soujiro upstairs.
There they were in the attic which…was an utter mess, Dust coated almost everything and old appliances were left to rust. A box stood in the middle of the room, in which he assumed it to be the one his grandparents packed for him.
"This is going to be your new room." Soujiro said, looking around before sweat dropping "I will at least give you sheets, alright? ... You look like you want to say something."
"Well it's certainly…stuffed? Cluttered? Whatever word is best to describe this won't make you kick me out" Ren said, making Sojiro snicker for a moment before shaking his head.
"It's up to you to clean this up. I'll be leaving after locking up each day so don't try anything fishy. I will throw you out if you even try anything." He said with a stern face, making Ren sweatdrop.
"Yup I totally needed that right now" Ren said, looking around the place.
" I got the gist of your situation. You got up between a drunken man and a scared woman, he got injured by some means, and then he sued you. Correct? That's what you get for getting in the way between two adults…" he said, watching Ren already cleaning up.
"..." Ren frowned, thinking back to that day.
"And now that you've got a criminal record, the hero academy you were going to go to didn't want to take you and the only one that did take you with a hero training program didn't have a dormitory or anything so your father shipped you off here and into my custody. In other words, they got rid of you for being such a pain." Sojiro mentioned smirking at the end before spotting the look in Ren's eyes and frowned.
"Okay, maybe it's best you don't talk about anything other than what you have to. I am only in the restaurant business you know. So behave yourself, if nothing happens then your 'probation' will be lifted.
"Right, right…I've heard the whole song and dance already…" Ren said, making Sojiro sigh as he took out his cigarette.
"Just finish up cleaning and go to bed early, it's your first day at Shujin tomorrow so better make a good first impression" he said, walking down stairs.
Ren continued working on cleaning up the room, and as he did memories of what happened that day coursed through his mind.
It was near the end of the summer at night, Ren was walking back home but had ended up lost due to the darkness.
On his way back he heard some commotion from nearby, so he had went to go and check it out
"Tch- What a waste of my time." The man said holding onto the woman. "You think you're worth this much trouble?"
"I'll call the police!" The woman retorted as she tried to slither away.
"Heh, call them if you'd want. The police take orders from me, they belong to me! They'd never take you seriously! And there ain't going to be any heroes coming to save you in this shithole of a town" the man said, as the woman tried to get away
"S-Stop!" She screamed, before the sound of sirens filled the area.
"Someone called the cops, huh?" The man muttered "Get in the car! People like you should just follow whatever I say!"
"H-Hey! What are you doing!" Ren yelled out, as the man turned back and towards Ren
"What're you lookin' at? Get out of here, brat! This ain't some kinda act! Get lost!"
Back in the present, we see Ren finishing up cleaning his room before he went up to the bed
"I couldn't just do nothing…it was the right thing to do…wasn't it?" he said, flopping down onto his bed. "Could I have been wrong…"
He then looked over at a poster of the number 1 hero, All Might he put up with a frown on his face '...is that not what Justice…is meant to be…'
He then felt a vibration coming from his pocket and took it out, only for his eyes to widen at what he saw.
"Wait what? I thought I deleted that" he said, seeing the app from before now on his phone once again.
He then pressed the app but instead it started growing bigger and bigger "I-Is my phone bugged or something…"
"What a creepy design…" he said, staring at the app as his eyes started getting heavier.
"It looks…just like…an eye…?" he mumbled, before he drifted off to sleep.
?
Third person P.O.V.
"H-Huh…" Ren blinked, now finding himself in a small blue coloured room "Where…am I".
Moving up he noticed that he was now in the traditional looking prisoner uniform, with a pair of cuffs around his arms and another on his leg connected to a large metal ball by chains.
"A prison…is this some kind of dream…" he said, getting up and moving towards the barred door which he barely was able to get to considering the ball.
Looking down he spotted a pair of twins walking up to him with serious looks on their faces.
They appear to be young girls with platinum blonde hair and yellow eyes. The twins both wear a black eye patch with the letter "V" over one of their eyes and a blue prison guard outfit. The one on the left has a long braid and a hat with the letters "O-Y-O-O", carries a clipboard while the one on the right has hair buns and a hat with the letters "X-M-R-N." and was using a Baton. They wear some brassards on their left arms and have matching black ties.
"So you've finally woken up the inmate!" The one with hair buns stated, with an annoyed voice.
"You are in the presence of our master, so stand up straight," the one with a long braid said, with a calm voice.
'T-This can't be real,' he thought, before looking up at someone sitting on a desk behind the two girls.
"Welcome" Sitting on the desk was a bizarre old man with a long nose, pointed ears and bulging, bloodshot eyes. He wears a black suit, white gloves, white or black socks and black shoes. He appears to be quite tall when fully stood up and is almost skeletally thin.
"I am Igor and this is my Velvet Room" he said, a creepy grin and a deep voice "I am delighted to make your acquaintance".
"The… Velvet… Room?" Ren mumbled, while looking around the place with a raised eyebrow.
"This place exists between dreams and reality, it is a room that only those who are bound by a 'Contract' may enter" he explained, as Ren looked down.
'When did I become bound by a contract?' he questioned, before looking back up.
"I have summoned you to speak about important matters that involve your life as well" Igor said, making Ren's eyes widen "My…life?".
"Still this is a surprise, Amamiya Ren, this room reflects the state of the guests heart, to think a prison would appear as such" he said, looking around the prison like space "You truly are a prisoner of fate".
"A Prisoner of Fate? What are you talking about! What is this place! When did I sign a contract! Who are- agh!" Ren said, jumping back as the guard with hair buns banged the prison door near him.
"QUIET INMATE! Our master is still talking" she said, with a glare making Ren sweatdrop.
"Thank you Caroline, but his questions are valid ones that will be answered in another time" he said, before looking back at Ren.
"In the near future, there is no mistake that Ruin is awaiting you and this whole world, that no Hero or Villain will be able to prevent," Igor explained, making Ren raise an eyebrow.
"A coming…ruin? What is he talking about?" Ren questioned, looking down.
"You must be rehabilitated towards freedom, that is your only means to avoid ruin…do you have the resolve to challenge the distortion of this world?" he questioned, as Ren gripped the bars of the prison door.
"Wait! I don't have a single idea what you're talking about!" Ren yelled, shaking the prison door.
"Hmm it seems it's time, Justine sent him back to reality" Igor stated, as the girl bowed.
"Yes my master" She bowed, before waking up in front of Ren as her eyes flashed.
"Enjoy your fleeting moments of relief" she stated, as Ren stumbled.
"N-No… wait…answer…me…" Ren said, before falling back down towards his bed and drifting off to sleep.
And done, man that took a hot a minute but it was fun to work on and add in a bit of character into Ren.
I thought it might be kind of interesting to be a day by day kind of thing for the story, like how the Persona series works
It most likely won't end up like that, but I am going to be trying and seeing how well I can do it like that.
I will also be adding some extra story stuff to Persona 5's story, both to connect closer with the themes of My Hero Academia and also to develop my version of Ren who will be quite different from in the game and other media.
Speaking of which it felt kind of redundant to make a new Oc so I'm just going to be going with Ren for now.
But anyway I hope you guys are interested in this story and I look forward to seeing what you guys will think about it in the future.
