THE KILLING JOKE

Whats up Tumblr. Anyway due to me pitching in helping a relative out with childcare ontop of working these massive holiday hours my time here will be extremely limited. Oh, that and the gaming I do in between (thank the gods for Nintendo Switch). But I'd like to add that I'll be getting to my rolepays in the few windows of opportunities I get since I still do miss writing. Also, walk tall all those who're working on Black Friday, may the force be with Y'all.

It had been some time since he’s seen his friends, in all honesty, the time itself felt like an eternity. It almost became a routine within his old life as a phantom thief, he would go to school, hang out with a friend or explore mementos. Now his life was so mundane, it wasn’t something he hated but it was also quite lonely. The friends he’s had in his hometown, they really wouldn’t understand the things he’s gone through at least not to the extent of him being a phantom thief. They have heard about the thieves yes but outside of what a phanboy should know Akira could not really say much.

Which made friends here seemed tasteless. He still cherishes the bonds he’s made here but they weren’t at a deep level as the friends he’s met in yongen or Shibuya. Things were so peaceful to the point that even Morgana would stay home with the task of watching over his family. His feet continue pushing him towards his house as he checked his phone to talk to his fellow phantom thieves. They couldn’t meet in person but thank goodness there was the beauty of technology and he’s managed to keep in touch with them via instant messaging. He had spoken with Ryuji for the most part since he was quite the chatterbox, the other person that got most of his time over the internet was none other than Futaba as well. Being close to 4:00PM it would be an hour before Morgana puts him to train once more. He can’t believe how fast summer came around, with today being the last day for school he was now free for a month and a few days which seemed unfair considering the other large amount of days they do have to attend school but of course he did not make the rules.

-“How are you?” was the message he had just posted to Futaba as he arrives home. With a warm smile present on his face, he greeted both his parents and made his way back into his room. The moment he did he felt a vibration emitting from his cell phone, thinking it was his friend Futaba replying to his message..no it was a different alert. Just like the last time, a very strange app appeared onto his phone at the home screen. The app..didn’t look like the first one at all..no this one was stranger. Whilst the first resembled an eye..this one depicted the silhouettes of a dragon and a man. “What..kind of fairytale app is this?” He spoke clicking it..however, unbeknownst to him ‘fairytale or fairy tail’ specifically were the words needed to traverse into this new existence. His body taking away from this world and into the magical world of Fiore. His entrance was quite subtle and within an alleyway. Upon removing himself from the alley he found out that his clothes had also changed..he was currently wearing the clothes from his days being a phantom thief. A single gloved hand reaches his face to discover he was not wearing the mask. Probably for good reason. Both hands now in his pockets as he traverses through the town on foot. It was quite..lively and everything looked out of a fantasy novel..the only thing he needed to see was a large castle. And surely enough…that wish was granted. Eyes gaze at the large structure with bemusement..only because he was mentally joking about seeing a castle though it was quite..impressive if anything. However, there were normal people seemed to be heading into the castle as well. 

Akira didn’t take time to notice the name ‘Fairy Tail’ written grandly at the front as he just entered and was surprised that..the first floor really seemed like..a pub of all things. “Now I must..really be imagining things.”

𝔸𝕟𝕠𝕥𝕙𝕖𝕣 𝕝𝕠𝕟𝕘 𝕕𝕒𝕪 𝕒𝕙𝕖𝕒𝕕.

     The morning routine began with the blonde waking up ( Morning stretches ), brushing her teeth ( Staring into the mirror ) and stepping into the shower the moment clothes were taken off. Body being taken cared of while the droplets of water from the shower splashed over her entirely. Soap taken and glided feet first then made its way all the way to her arms. She hummed a tune her mother used to sing to her when she was younger. Such thing was normal, an everyday process that she continued to repeat subconsciously. The moment her body and hair had been fully washed, Lucy cut the water off and stepped out the shower, taking hold of two towels she had placed waiting for her return and while wrapping one around her naked body she used the smaller one to dry her hair off.

“ Ah….I always feel great after a bath. “

     Walking back to her bed where clothes had been already set ( Thanks to Virgo ), Lucy waited till her hair was dry to begin getting dressed for today’s events. Once the boots were on and Lucy was ready to go she made sure ( Never forgetting ) to take her keys with her. It was silent, the whole process besides occasional humming, but the moment Plue was called out to walk along side her and the door was opened a breath of happiness had been accompanied by a wide smile.

“ LET’S WORK HARD TODAY TOO!! “

     Lucy spoke as Plue jumped high in agreement. Yes, today was going to be a fun and adventurous day she hoped with not much heartache. The celestial mage was off to her guild, Fairy Tail, which she loves dearly. It was a breath of good air whenever she would be heading there. Like her world would grow wider and wider the more closer she would get. Who should she greet first today? Who wanted to do a job with her? Hopefully Natsu wouldn’t cause a ruckus ( Though that’s asking too much ). All in all Lucy was obviously excited as she was everyday.

     Though…There stood someone in front of the entrance which Lucy has yet to meet. Was this perhaps a person thinking about joining the guild? Might as well ask, 

“ Hello! Are you a new member of the guild? My name is Lucy it’s nice to meet you. “

[satanxsoul]

Out of the blue, he was greeted by a blond female, she seemed quite..chipper to say the least, really much like the people in the pub. Honestly, it was enough to drive away his feeling of uneasiness and crack a smile. Both his hands resides in his pockets before his lips parted to speak. “Can't say that I am, but I am a bit lost.” Joker heard the word 'guild' escape her lips. Now if there was anything he's learned from his time with Futaba, was gaming slang. A guild in itself was a facility that housed members of its organization, now quickly observing that mark on her hand and add it with her question then he'd deduce that she was a part of this guild.

However, of course, this would be a rather obvious deduction and so the teen did not even feel an ounce of pride figuring this out, however, the thinking was not a waste. He simply needed questions answered in order for him to get a grasp of the situation. “This might be an odd question but have you seen anything strange?...something you wouldn't even know how to explain?” It was a shot in the dark, however, the teen wanted to know if shadows were involved with this form of abduction within this new world.

From what he's seen the place was soo peculiar. It fit right in between modern and medieval times judging by the architecture and the clothing people wear. Just where in the world did Akira stumble into this time? Gray hues then continue examining the area until he saw an abundance of papers pinned against what he would assume to be bulletin board of some kind. Intrigued by this he politely excused himself for the moment to take a walk towards this board. Examining the contexts of these papers..some had odd stuff written like 'find my cat' 'I need these ingredients please.' Really mundane tasks. However, there were others such as 'Fiend in the fields' 'Vanishing kids.' also posted. Pointing towards the board with a single finger he turned his gaze towards the blond. “What's...this exactly?”

The streets of Akihabara were bustling with activity on the week before Halloween. There were no shadows or anything stranger that’s happened all month so it was, of course, the perfect time to go out and join the world within its festivities. He’s heard of a haunted mansion being held at an electronics store. Now, of course, the store had been closed all day due to preparation for the event and will not be opened for another 3 hours but the trickster’s adventurous side could not help but want to head over for a sneak peak. And who better than to join him but his partner in crime so to speak: Runa. Pulling out his phone Akira began to text the female to find out if she was interested. [Text ✉ Akira: Hey Runa.] 4:53PM [Text ✉ Akira: Interested in checking out a ‘haunted mansion’ in Akiba?.] 4:53PM

Runa was just on her way from the school to the train station when she felt her phone buzz. “Huh?”

As she walked her way to the train station, the brunette pulled out her phone to see who texted her. Akira? What could it be for this time? Swiping through her phone, she read the two texts over. Haunted House? In Akihabara? The girl mused, tapping her chin. It was Halloween season after all. It definitely sounded interesting, and fun, no doubt about that. 

The brunette stopped just outside the train station, taking the moment to text him back.

[Text ✉ Runa: Good timing] 4:56PM [Text ✉ Runa: I almost got on the wrong train aha!] 4:57PM  [Text ✉ Runa: I’ll meet ya there in like 30 minutes!! Σ(´・ω・｀)] 4:57PM

And with that, she placed the phone back in her pocket and hopped onto the train to Akihabara. She wondered to herself what kind of Haunted House it could be. Wondered if it will actually be scary like the ones she’s seen in movies and previous school festivals. 

[satanxsoul]

Okay, just like he predicted the building itself closed and there seemed to be no one around which meant the decorations must have already been set up. All he needed to do was wait for his partner in crime. Akira found himself a place to sit on a bench quite near the building. She spoke of arriving in 30 minutes...leave it up to him for getting here early. He took out his cell phone and began typing a reply towards the female.

[Text ✉ Akira: It's alright, I'll be at a bench sitting and waiting.] 5:00PM

Click, the message sent and his eyes now glances at the building, there was something..quite strange about the feeling all of a sudden..but perhaps it was just..his imagination. Or perhaps it was his excitement trying to get the best of him. This Halloween was truly going to be one h will never forget.

While it was true the gang had bigger fish to fry as Ryuji would put it but still, it wasn't in him to leave things as they were with the female before him, someone he's come to know and quite frankly the only one in the Phantom thieves he can talk to about shadows, given her past experience. He stood straight, a single hand in his pocket another held his phone ready to type in the name of the person that's caused her any form of strife. “It's okay, I'm sure the Phantom Thieves don't mind smaller jobs.”

Can't change the world if you can't help a single person, after all, at least it was the way he thought before gray hues would glance at her. “So what's his..or her name anyway? I'm going to need a full name so I can add it to the Phansite. After that, I'd expect the person to have a change of heart pretty soon.” His words were spoken with confidence and warmth in an attempt to assure her that justice will be served.

Lavenza smiled to herself when she heard him coming around the corner. Having watched several horror movies to prepare for the festivities of this month, she hoped that she was scary enough to pull the look off. Double checking that the dark wig she wore was just right, she parted the hair just enough so she could see before turning the corner that she knew that her Trickster would be. Her steps were slow and deliberate as she reached her hands out for him.

It was almost that time again: Halloween. A time where people dressed up, partied or take their kids or younger relatives trick or treating. Akira and the gang had come up with the tradition of watching horror movies whenever they all had the chance. Given Makoto's rather strict regimen that fabled free time was less than often. However, when it did happen it was always so very enjoyable. Six days prior to this present the phantom thieves have enjoyed a rather fun evening watching Ringu. It was quite a classic that most horror buffs have seen more than once or twice this time of year.

Now realistically speaking the movie itself was anything but scary to Akira himself though admitting there were a few jump scare that got him and the movie in itself was quite enjoyable. However, he noticed that there have been rather...peculiar events that are currently taking place on this day: The seventh day. Aside from the constant calls he's been getting everything else was just as normal as can be..that is until he saw..her. Skin pale as paper and hair black as night, Akira took no time to examine her fully, his imagination immediately saw Sadako and with that turned heels and ran the opposite direction in a panic.

Yes, there was something she could help him with after some events there has been some word of a company in the underworld that said to do battle with Shinra company. And for a company to rise at that magnitude it’s got to be something pretty illegal. “Hello there, thanks for having me actually.” The male’s words escaped his lips with kindness in his tone before setting his hands within his pockets. “I heard Shinra is getting competition soon from a rising brand..it’s really troubling. I was hoping with your connections you’d know about it.”

Yes, Akira was hoping the female’s position in AVALANCHE would be of great help. Granted he wondered if she knew he was the leader of the Phantom Thieves. Two great factions that would have worked so well together should their paths have crossed when the planet needed aid. However, he needed the answer to a possible lead to this new company..this Deepground.

His question was interesting and not at all what she expected him to say. Immediately, her walls were up and she wondered just who this young man was to ask such a thing. 

“I hear all sorts of things from patrons every day. Why are you so interested in such a thing?” Feigning ignorance, she watched him closely for a reaction. Was he fishing for information? She hated ShinRa, but she wasn’t about to out herself and her motives to a stranger, especially a kid. 

[satanxsoul]

It was a good thing young Akira was great at thinking on his feet, quickly thinking up an excuse as to why he would inquire such information in the first place. It'd both benefit his secret identity and perhaps give him the answers he's looking for. “I'm a student in journalism, but I happen to have an internship with Edge's local news. The information I get is not intended to be leaked to the public but I figured it'd make good credit if I treated this little assignment as a real job.” The male then gently adjusts the glasses he wore as eyes continued to glance towards the female.

Hoping that of course, his little lie wouldn't be too obvious but just enough of a reason for the female to trust him with the information that she might provide him. However, little did they both knew that Deepground were currently performing their own operations as they speak. Within the sky, now towering over Kalm and slowly making its way towards edge was an aircraft, not of Shinra's design and surely had given those outside a pique in curiosity.

☠

”!! Whoa whoa whoa–!” As the howl that lusts for the blood of shadow rings, that’s a better sign than ever for him to hit the hills! Allowing his weapon to linger for the sole purpose of pain, the blond lurches into a brief crouch, glancing decisively through the gaggle of twitching limbs until his way out could be seen. It was all within the nick of time as the moment Skull took to the air, what took his place in delivering this pain train was charring flames, causing him to hold an arm towards his face while effortlessly making that landing a little ways away from his companion.

Even now both the blond and his Persona couldn’t resist the instance to marvel the handiwork. Time and time again their Ace always had something creative in his sleeves to get the job done. If that wasn’t a promising point of a leader, they sure as hell weren’t sure what would be. “And looks like that..” With a commanding arch of his hand, a rush of cerulean flame would draw the now heated up weapon back into his grip.” Takes care of that.” A firm nod is given back as that lively grin signaled he still has tons in his reserves to spare. “Right behind ya, let’s keep this pace on up.”

Joker’s natural sense for danger proved correct once they blitzed their way down to the required room. As always with these particular shadows starting to gain a stronger bitterness for human life both lived and crushing them down, it draws a more sinister power, garnishing it with their untamed thoughts that ache to break free from the recesses they were crushed under. It layered around them like growing filth, enough of it to make the blond grunt in distaste. “Looks like we found where this party here is really goin’ down. But don’t ya worry.” He knocked gently onto his bro’s shoulder. “I made sure to stock good on those rations you’ve been handin’ on out. Just to make sure we can get that pick me up when we need it.”

“Hua hua hua.. So what if I have to take the steps to get where I won’t. Doesn’t everyone do the same!? It’s not one big damn deal what they’re made out of!”

“Whether we’re talking about stone or people! Just different building blocks!”

Just the mere thought was causing the delinquent’s blood to boil as he took the lead once again. Even now the room was beginning to gradually distort around them, struggling to shift into a realm aiming to content their unadulterated feelings gone haywire. With each hard step of his boot made, the only route it’d lead Skull is towards the source of where their true enemy awaits them. As a glowering sphere of distorted power remains at the center, idle structures would be seen trying to erupt from the disgusting ground.

It could be considered false grandeur as the bloodied gold buildings were threaded dark by the sickening dark webs of miasma. Desires attempting to be made manifest all for one of the two revealed amidst the center of it all. Instantly did those chilling gold eyes fixed their malice upon the Thieves that dared pervade their territory.

“Isn’t it fair for me to do what others did to me? It’s so damn easy once you get that first good shot! Something to bind them down.. then just eating, eating–!!” The shadow groaned, focusing it’s lethal gaze onto Joker. “Until there’s not a damn thing left! Ain’t it the perfect lil money farm!? ..And are you tryin’ to take away my happiness, stinkin’ bastard!?”

”I dunno who the hell you’re tryin’ to fool here. But let’s get one damn thing right. Your sorry ass can give it a rest on making some cookie cutter excuses of effin’g other people over! Damn right we ain’t gonna hesitate to teach some manners!”

“Especially takin’ it out on some damn high schoolers!”

“Skull wai-” It was hopeless at this point, the blond male proved to be too passionate about his role in these situations. With their element of surprise gone Joker figured the two of them still possessed the strength needed to take the hearts of these fiends. Following Skull's lead, Joker held his dagger tightly in hand as the floor began to morph to match their distorted desires, concrete roads paved in blood as towers have risen to the heavens before them. This must be what people meant when others 'looked down' on those they deem inferior. Their voices were menacing, it bodes well with their surroundings. The voice of the shadow crept behind him as the other remains at the tower.

“You said it Skull, we'll make them see just how screwed up they are.” With confidence the teen began to tighten his crimson glove as the body of the men began to swell, bloating slowly before imploding to take their new forms as superior shadows. The first one took the form of a slightly distorted Rakshasa, and the other atop the tower changes its form into the mighty bull-like Moloch. Rakshasa swings its mighty blade that was intercepted by Joker.

“You came here to stop us?!? We'd like to see you try!!” The crimson shadow utters pushing the teen away, with one somersault Joker manages to land soundly onto his feet. The large Moloch stood its ground firmly and spews its searing flame downwards towards the two, just as he expected..these shadows were unusually strong..for being at the higher points of mementos. “Ame no Uzume. Quickly changing his persona in order to absorb the incoming flames, however, stopping the wildfire from targetting the both of them had left Joker open.

“There!!!” The other had utter, the power of wind seems to envelop his blade giving it a glow increasing his power. Charging towards the protective leader with its blade in hand until finally performing a mighty swing.

Tuesday. Time: 9:12AM.

Another day, meant another dollar for the young man as he was enjoying summer break back in Shibuya. It has been a year since he’s seen his phantom thieves gang and these days are going to be nothing but catch up until the break was over. Today was just day two and he had a few hours just before his shift within Leblanc started. And so Akira took his phone from his pocket and began to text one of his friends.

The one he chose this time was Haru, maybe the two of them could spend the morning together..that is if he’s lucky enough to break her away from her very busy schedule. Fingers began tapping against the keys as he now began typing his message towards her.

[Text – Akira: Good morning Haru, are you awake?]

[Text – Akira: I’ve got some hours before I actually start my shift, so are you available for breakfast? Maybe we can find something to do whilst we’re eating.]

The messages sent, and now he began to freshen himself up preparing himself for the day he has ahead of him. Still thinking of other things they can do after breakfast. The arcade was probably..not something she’d be into he thought.

[haruholly-deactivated20191026]

Paperwork at 9am was a nightmare, but it was to be expected. After all, when one ran a multimillion dollar company that was striving to turn the entire business around, a whole host of new documents had to be read, drafted, finalized, and signed. It was a lot of hard work, but Haru enjoyed finding local farms to source produce from, finalizing architecture blueprints for new shops and developing an entire menu for each shop depending on the region. It was rewarding, being able to do as such, but it was tiring, and she found herself spending time less and less with her friends, and more and more with the company. The realization that she couldn’t socialize nearly as much left a heaviness in her heart, but she knew, in the end, it was worth it, and that her dreams were being realized slowly but surely. Still, it was a pain having to wake up this early to finish paperwork, especially because she knew Akira had come back to Tokyo for summer vacation. Yet here she was, wasting away in her home, over piles of paperwork. Letting out a soft sigh she leaned back in her chair and stretched, feeling her back crack, giving it sweet relief. Checking her phone, her eyes lit up at the display of a new next, and one from Akira no less. Reading it over, her eager fingers flew through a reply.

[Text - Haru] Good morning Akira-kun! How lovely it is to receive a text from you, I hope you’re doing well.

Haru eyed her paperwork in distain. They were all just reports from the stores… she could read them over later…

[Text - Haru] I would love to join you for breakfast. I’ll be at Leblance in about twenty minutes. [Text - Haru] And thank you. You have given me the perfect excuse to run away from paperwork haha.

Setting down her phone, Haru set about getting herself ready, making sure she looked presentable and headed out of her home (taking care to remember her phone and keys), eagerly taking the trains needed to make her way over. True to her words, all it took was twenty minutes for her to step through the familiar door of Leblance, the sound of the bell tinkling at the top filling her with nostalgia and warmth. Her eyes scanned for a familiar head of black hair, hoping that she wasn’t too early.

[satanxsoul]

Oh, she responded. The response brought a smile on his face. Now all that was left to do was get himself ready. But, that deed was easier said than done. Grogginess from sleep and his muscles ache from the crime-fighting he's been involved in as of late causes his body to completely disobey what his mind wanted him to accomplished. Akira couldn't help but sigh as he musters all the strength at his disposal to bring himself into a sitting position. This process might have taken five minutes from the twenty-minute window he has before she arrives at the cafe. Akira took the remaining time to get ready. And with time he was finally clean and dressed for this new day.

The bell softly chimes which brought the presence of someone new. Naturally, Sojiro took a glance towards the side to see who had entered. Oh what a surprise, his eyes widened for a moment before his natural gruff demeanor turned into something of kindness for the young female that walked in. One of Futaba's dearest friends. “Oh, Haru-chan. Haven't seen you in a while, must be tough wearing the shoes of a businesswoman these days. Remember you're always welcome here.” Sojiro said with a smile, no doubt Akira had invited her over and of all things he was not even here to greet her once she had arrived. The man could only sigh before turning his back to prepare a meal for them both. “He should be coming right out any minute now.”

Speak Satan's name and he doth appear. Akira walks downwards from the staircase leading up to the attic and saw Haru had arrived, on time as usual. The sight of her brought a smile to his face. “Hey.” His voice clearly amused and excited before Sojiro added his own two cents into the situation. “Didn't I teach you better, about leaving a young lady wait?!”. Akira only bats away the words playfully before smirking. “Yeah, yeah it won't happen again.” The teen spoke softly taking his seat right next to her. “It's nice to see you again, thanks for taking some time off for the visit.”

Shadows may have been eliminated but the state of the world was anything but a just society. There have been rumors of a new real-estate company buying numerous houses in residential areas. Now that in itself was not a problem or anything too concerning..however, the rumors continue to elaborate that those who refuse to move or sell were dealt with. These were of course just rumors, so the connection of all these victims found dead were never mentioned to Japan’s authorities. And to make some truth on this Akira decided that he would indeed explore this situation further.

The time: 7:53AM. The streets slowly began to fill with the activity, Akira wore simple clothing on this day which included a hoodie in order to hide his face as best as he began to explore the streets of Japan. Of course, this was nothing more than a simple intelligence-gathering mission, he traverses through the residential area and spoke with the people there. However, none seemed to know what the male spoke about. Every man or woman answered something along the lines of “No.” “Sorry I don’t know anything about that.” or “No but someone your age should leave this to the police.”

Akira’s only excuse when speaking to the people was he was doing independent research for a thesis on real-estate for school. But not one person was inclined to answer, His journey now took him towards a home quite near the last area where the murder was reported. A hand began knocking against the door, moments later a much older man came at the door, even though seeing it was just a teenager at his doorstep he kept it shut. “What do you want?” The man bellows from behind the door. “Good morning sir, I’m doing an independent project on real-estate, so I just needed you just answer one question. Have you heard about the rumors regarding Kobayashi real-estate company?” The man’s eyes widen at the mention of the name before scowling back at the child. “What are they sending kids now to do their dirty work? I already told you I don’t have the money..now please leave an old man be.”

His answer right then and there told Akira everything he needed to know, the company really did exist and most likely this man was a target. “I’m sorry for bothering you sir, I’ll just leave.” Slowly walking away from the house only to step into a nearby alley. After an hour of searching the young vigilante found his first lead..now all that was left to do was wait for the evening. According to the police reports, most of the murders have occurred overnight which only meant the killer or killers will make their appearance tonight. His only proof on this was the fact the man spoke of not having any money. So until then, the best thing to do was probably look for a public place to spend some time and formulate a plan.

     Goro had just gotten off of his shift from the station, but of course he left much later planned. A new case of disappearances throughout the city had been assigned to him. Of course. Not that he was given enough work as it was… of course, he took the case, not wanting to have any views of him changed for denying a rather important case.

     Even though it was late in the evening and he felt he might get somewhat of a judgmental or concerned reaction from the staff, he wanted to stop and get some coffee so that he could get more work finished at home. He did still have school work to do, after all.

     As he entered the thankfully still open cafe, he approached the counter to place his order. He gently rubbed his face as if that would help wake him up in any way… he just happened to glance over and see a familiar face.

     “Kurusu-kun?” he asked. He wasn’t exactly shocked to see Akira out this late, but it still was somewhat a surprise that they had happened to run into each other. “Out this late?”

That voice..it couldn't have been. Slowly the trickster turns his face to see that it was none other than Akechi. Never in his life did Akira suspected to see him again..at least not this soon. Which makes him wonder as to why the detective would be out here in this specific neighborhood of all places. “Likewise.” The young man responded before a small smile managed to appear on his face. At least happy to know that he was out doing what he did best regardless of the past they had. Slowly taking the mug, with warm tea within and began to drink its contents.

This could play out better than he had hoped. He did ponder whether back up was needed or not and in comes the prince. “Actually you couldn't have come at a better time.” The young vigilante poke under his breath, whatever words escaped him now was as soft as a whisper. Things only meant for Akechi and only Akechi to hear. “I'm working on this case..unofficially, of course, I'm sure you've heard all about the recent disappearances.”

Of course,  this information needed to be as hushed as possible. Especially since the Joker already had his suspicions to why so many people were disappearing in the first place. “Well, I found a person that might be next, not sure what I'll be facing..but could get rough.”

Her giggles served as a way to make the moment between them less tense, really bringing a smile to his face as a single gloved hand gently caresses the female's cheek as his lips continued to motion against her own with passion. The temperature within the church slowly rising, his lips gently pull away from hers temporarily, his hands then remove the coat from his back and tosses it against the mahogany floor before leaning his forehead against her own to glance into her eyes. “You know, you've got the prettiest eyes.”

“I’m sure there are family or at least friends that don’t want you to die for them.” His hands sit into his pockets as his eyes were fixated upon the martyr before him. She shows conviction and resolve, but she barely seemed younger than he himself so why was this heavy burden thrust into her? What made her so special that it took solely her powers to drive away this thing called sin? Whatever it was, The Joker wasn’t buying it.

Never one to quit in the face of adversity he decided to go along with this female. Her journey was nothing short of a mystery but still, her intentions were pure so it made him realize that she was indeed someone worthy to be at his side, now he only needed to prove if he was worthy to fight alongside her. “Until we find that answer, without you dyin’ I’ll join you. The name’s…Joker.”

{☾ }  “Um… I don’t know how to put this this but..” The female paused for a moment before looking down to her own two feet; trying to not to show that bit of sadness on her face. But somehow.. it over crossed her lips. “The only family I had.. well my parents had both died when I was young. And my father…? he was a summoner like me. Except he was a High Summoner, of Spira.” Of course, Yuna would say more but only if he wish to know all about summoners and the world of Spira. Even about Sin.. if anything.

 {☾ } “Though, I do have friends. Well I consider them to be my family. They happen to be my guardians and they look over me. I know they wouldn’t want me to die but, this is what summoners do. What I do.. I do without.. any regrets.” Being someone who was only seventeen years old and being casted to do such an hard task, it is something she only could do. Now following her father’s foot steps. If her parents seen this from the far plane, they surely would support her all the way and knew she was able to do this.

{☾ }  “You’ll join me.. on this journey of mine? T-thank you.. very much. It must be something you have already chosen once coming across me. That means you will be one of my Guardians then. I am certain you have such strength to also fight, too. Just as I do. Nice to meet you.” She took a short pause and bowed in front of him, in such a greeting. “I am.. Yuna. Around here the towns folk call me Lady Yuna but Yuna is always fine, too.” She said with a light smile pressed on her lips.

A single hand reaches for his own wrist to adjust the crimson glove adorned upon his hand. His lips curled into a rather confident smirk before just as a stream of azure flames revolves around his entire frame only for a moment right before vanishing as quickly as they appeared. “I've got a secret weapon here and there, someone's gotta make sure you don't die to save the world.” Spoke the young man before taking a step forward and stood right before her.

His hand slowly removing the mask from his face, turning towards her. “So, where to first? Where are we anyway?” Of course, the golden question would arise sooner or later. From what he could tell the land here was vast and quite broken as if there was a battle waged here so very long ago.
