Akira Kurusu was never really what most people would consider a good person. He knew this, but he didn't really care. The opinions or approval of others do not concern him in the slightest. He had his own worries to deal with, he didn't have time to bother himself with other peoples crap. And if he did involve himself with others it was soly for his own benefit. He had a goal...a goal he would do ANYTHING to achieve, he didn't care what he had to do, who he had to use, who he had to hurt, or who's blood he had to spill. This whole assault case was a HUGE set back on his goal...and he made sure that the one responsible was sorry. This whole Phantom Thief business was rather fortunate...at least through a change of heart he didn't have to kill Shido himself...or Kamoshida...or Kaneshiro...or Sae...he didn't care much for what happened to Akechi. Akira was just glad that attention starved pain in the ass was out of his hair for good.

After defeating Yaldabaoth and saving the world, Sae came up to him and told him in order to find Shido guilty he would have to turn himself in. Now this didn't really bother him...why? Because he knew once his frie-...no...that word was kinda pushing it. His confidants...once his confidants found out about his imprisonment, Akira KNEW they would do everything in their power to get him out. Especially those idiotic women he entered a relationship with, just to make them work harder for him. He knew that if he turned himself in not only would he not be in juvie for very long...he could make Shido suffer even more for crossing him and get rid of his record.

Everything was going smoothly. Just before Valentines day he got a flood of messages on his phone from the girls asking to hang out with him. Akira really didn't feel like dealing with any them, he never had any love for any of them. He acted just as loving as he needed to be and nothing more, he honestly couldn't stand any of them. He ONLY valued their skills, nothing else..also the sex was a good stress reliever. So he ignored all the messages and decided to spend Valentines alone. Well that was the plan but Futaba came into the cafe and asked to hang with him. Futaba was very useful to Akira, however he didn't enter a relationship with her...cause one because she already gave helping him everything she had. Two...he saw her as a little sister and well...actually liked having her around. And three...Soijro had done so much for him, he respected Sojiro alot...he was...kinda like the dad he never had and always wanted. So he showed respect for him and didn't screw around with his daughter just like he asked, Akira had some restraint and morality.

So just like that Akira ended up spending time with Futaba and she ended up giving him chocolate. She said it was sibling chocolate, but what she said after that really made him...feel.

Futaba: "I love ya bro!"

Akira: "Ahh...hehehehe...yeah. Same lil sis."

Ever since he Igor and Lazenva said their goodbyes to Akira and gave him the power of the world arcana, he had been getting these really bad headaches randomly. They were bad but they passed. He was still having them but Futaba's presence made him not pay much mind to it. The next day the headaches were REALLY bad...when he looked himself in the mirror in the bathroom he could have sworn his eyes flashed yellow...Akira was NOT in a good mood that day...

2/15...would be the day Akira revealed his true nature. Akira was just sitting in the cafe area holding his head while looking through all the messages from the girls...

Akira: "God...these women never quit..." He sighed.

Morgana: "Weren't girls supposed to give chocolate to the guys they like yesterday?...Hey...Are you gonna be OK?"

Akira: "I'll be fine Mona...argh...my fucking head..." Akira groaned in pain and clutched his head in pain.

Morgana: "My gentlemanly nature is making me worry about you..."

Akira sighed and gave Morgana a...Really? Look

Akira; "I swear Mona...look I respect you but sometimes you can be a real-"

*CLINK!*

Akira heard the bell to the cafe door go off and saw Sojiro hurry in and give him a concerned look. He looked panicked.

Sojiro: Hey, what'd you do...? Outside the store, is that.."

Akira: "Huh? Wha-" Akira stood up and looked at him.

The bell rung again.

Woman's voice: "Excuse me..."

Before Akira knew it Haru, Ann, Makoto, Sadayo, Ichiko, Takemi, Chihaya, and Hifumi surrounded him holding boxes of chocolate.

Akira could only roll his eyes at the situation...

Ann: "So you already have a favorite!?" She growled.

Ann: "I came to say hello yesterday...but when I looked in the window, you were with someone else...You dick!" She roared.

Makoto: "...I saw the light on in here last night. Did you think you'd just try and trick this romantically impaired fool?"

GOD...that condescending tone in her voice just PISSES him off...

Haru: "I was worried about you, so I came to check on you yesterday...You could just said you were busy...if you had to lie about what you were doing..."

Akira: "Agggh...naive little brat..." He cursed in his head.

Hifumi: "You were here with someone else yesterday, weren't you...? Are you cheating on me?... Please tell me it's not true."

Takemi: "...You sem to be doing well. Did my little guinea pig forget to turn off his lights last night?"

Akira: "I am NOT your guinea pig bitch..." He swore under his breath.

At this point Akira was grinding his teeth, becoming more irritated as they went on. His splitting headache that just seemed to worsen with every second wasn't helping either. He did not have time or patience for this...

Sadayo: "You're such a problem child...I left early yesterday to see how you were...and I saw you with someone else. What the heck am I doing...?"

Chihaya: "I got worried yesterday, so I read own fortune...It said that you're seeing someone else..."

Ichiko: "I got quite the scoop yesterday...a boyfriend caught cheating! I'm not very happy about it, though."

Akira: "Like I care if you are..." He mumbled.

Akira was just BARELY keeping his rage in check, however the dam was about to break.

Ann: "And here I came all this way for you..."

Makoto: "Take it."

Haru: "Take my chocolate, please before I crush it."

Akira: "Grrr..." He growled.

?: "Akira...your heart is going to burst at this point... you need to stop holding back...all this negativity your holding in is really putting a strain on your heart."

Akira: "Agh...I know...but...Sojiro is watching..."

Hifumi: "Here is your chocolate."

Takemi: "There's no need to be modest, just take the chocolate." She said with a smug smile on her face.

Akira: "I am going to...TORTURE that skank..." His twitched.

Sadayo: "You can eat this, right? It's chocolate."

Chihaya: "Here. Take your chocolate."

Akira's vision turned blood red...he could hear voices whispering in his ears...his blood boiled...his whole body trembled and his hands bled from clenching his fists so hard.

?: "Akira! Your heart! Its going...TO...BURST."

Ichiko: "Here. It's chocolate, got it?"

*SNAP!*

One of the chains of Akira's heart broke in two...

Sojiro: "Hey kid...say something."

Akira simply hung his head...and didn't move or speak.

Sojiro: "Ugh...kid?"

Morgana: "Oh no..."

Akira's body twitched...and then...

Akira: "Hehehe..." He giggled still holding his head down.

Ann: "Do you think this is funny?! You're the scum of the world!"

Akira: "Hehehehehehehehehehe!" His head rose.

Akira: "hehehehe...Hahahahaha...HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHA!" Akira stumbled backwards and leaned to the right and pushed up against the next to him.

*BANG! BANG!*

Akira then banged his head against the mirror just above the sink a few times.

Everyone took a few steps back with shocked and confused looks on their faces.

Akira: "Hahahahahahaha! Hahahaha! Ha HA! HYAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAAAA!"

Akira stared at the mirror while laughing, his vision was still blood red, the word HA appeared everywhere in black writing he looked, the mirror had blood splattered on it and had bloody finger prints on it...his reflection had a very crooked smile on its face, yellow glowing eyes, clothes torn slightly, hair standing up, and was covered in blood as well...Akira stared at his reflection while still laughing like a mad man.

Ichiko: "What is wrong with him...?"

Sojiro: "Akira..."

Morgana the ran to Akira's side and pawed at his leg trying to get his attention.

Morgana: "Akira! Snap out of it! Answer me! PLEASE!" He cried.

Akira: "BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHA-...agh?...huh?..." Looks down at the cat.

Morgana: "Calm down! please!"

Akira: "Mona?..." The voices ceased...his vision became less red and the hallucinations faded away. His heart, body and mind settled down a bit.

Akira: "Morgana..." He reached down and stroked the cat's head gently.

Morgana: "Thats right...just calm down..."

Akira: "Aggh..." The boy then takes a few deep breaths and completely calms down.

Akira: "*Phew...*That's better. Thanks Mona." The boy sighed.

Having regained his composer he turned to face everyone. They...were all giving him weird looks.

Sojiro: "Akira...what the hell? Are you o-"

Akira: "I'm just fine Sojiro, don't worry. Hey listen...can you do me a favor?"

Sojiro: "What?"

Akira: "Can give a little bit of time alone, so we can all talk in private?"

Sojirro: "Hmm...Akira...what are you planning on doing?" He gave a very seriously look.

Akira: "I'm just gonna...set some things straight. Nothing too extreme. Promise. I'll call you on your phone when I'm done." He said holding his hand up swearing.

Sojiro: "...Okay fine. But please don't do anything you may regret..." He said walking to the door.

Akira: "You too Morgana."

Morgana: "Joker...I...I...don't think I should lea-"

Akira: "MONA. It will be fine okay? Go on with Sojiro." He said kneeling on one knee and petting Morgana.

Morgana: "...Alright Akira...but...will...everything still be...you know...okay? Afterwards?..."

Akira: "...We'll see Mona...we'll see. Go. Now."

Morgana: "Right...see you later?"

Akira: "See ya in the morning."

Morgana: "Heh...thought so..." He sighed running off after Sojiro.

Once the two exited the cafe, Akira then stared at the door for a few moments then looked back to the girls. Their sour looks returned. Akira then sighed and took off his glasses and hung them on the collar of his shirt. He then reached into his jacket and pulled out a black little box, he then opened the top of it and took out a cigarette. He placed the cig in his mouth and then placed the box back in his jacket. He then reached into his pocket and took a lighter, he put a hand over the lighter as he lifted up to the cig in his mouth and lit it.

Haru: "Akira?"

Sadayo: "Y-you...smoke?"

Takemi: "Where would a minor like you get cigarettes?"

Ichiko: "Better question is who would sell him cigarettes?"

Akira took a long pull on the cig and then took it out of his mouth holding it between his fingers, then blew out a stream of smoke in the air.

Akira: "It doesn't matter where I got them. What does matter is that it's none of you're fucking business." He shot back at them in a harsh tone.

Their eyes went wide at that reply. Akira had NEVER talked to any of them like that.

Sadayo: "That's not how you speak to your teacher." She said in a sharp tone.

Akira: "I don't give two shits who you are lady. You could be the queen of fucking England and I'll still talk to you however I like."

Haru: "Agh! You are so immature!"

Akira: "Says the one who gets a kick outta making our enemies beg for their lifes." He said taking another puff of his cig.

Haru gripped her chocolate tighter in anger.

Akira: "Look...for the entirety of the year I've known you all, I have done nothing but listen to all of you rant and rave about everything in your lifes. Now...its my turn, and all of you are going to shut the hell up and listen." He spoke in a dark tone.

Akira: "Look much like you, I have my own way of life."

Makoto: "So you're way of life involves toying with other peoples feelings?!"

Akira: "If that's what it takes to meet my goals then yes. Look I have a goal in my life...a goal that I will do anything to make a reality."

Ann: "Is your goal SOOO freaking important that you would stab your own friends in the back?!"

Akira: "Yes. This goal is more important then anything else in the world to me. To achieve it...I don't care what I have to do, who I have to use, who I have to hurt, or who's blood I have to spill."

Akira: "And friends? Don't kid yourself. All of you were pawns. Nothing more." He took another puff.

Haru: "Pawns?!"

Akira blew smoke in her direction.

Akira: "Do I have to fucking spell it out? PAWNS. Tools. Tools to be used until you either broke or out lived you're usefulness."

Ann: "You bastard!"

Ichiko: "So we were just tools to you?" She growled.

Akira: "Thats ALL you were to me."

Sadayo: "...After all the things you did for me...you listened to my problems...you helped me through the darkest times of my life...and made me feel like I was the luckiest girl in the world...all I was to you...was just a TOOL?"

Akira: "Don't get it twisted. I ONLY helped you with you're problems so you could do a better job of helping me. I was just keeping my tools in working condition. I value your skills. Nothing else. I could care far less about any of you. However...now that this whole Phantom Thief business is over you are absolutely NOTHING to me."

Chihaya: "I can't believe what I'm hearing...you're the lowest of the low. I TRUSTED you! I LOVED YOU!

Akira: "Yeah? Well I HATE you. To be perfectly honest I hate all of you."

Akira: "Ann, your annoying. Haru, you're so weak and spineless its sickening, Takemi, you're depressing, Hifume, you need a reality check, Ichiko you never shut the fuck up and are so full of yourself, Sadayo, you're just flat out pathetic, Makoto, you need to learn to mind you're own damn business and stop acting like you can decide how people should live their lives, and Chihaya...I just straight don't like you."

Their faces burned with anger.

Takemi: "You...really played me for a fool."

Akira: "Not hard to do."

Akira: "It's not my fault you morons are easy to be played for fools. No wonder you all were in those bad situations for so long. In fact...had I not come here to Shibuya...50,000 yen says you guys would STILL be in those situations."

Akira: "Sadayo...if I hadn't stepped in when I did, you would have quit the one job you loved soooo much out of shame then would have went on to whore yourself. Fucking embarrassment.."

Sadayo: "..." She looked down.

Akira: "Haru your OWN father would have sold you off to an A-class rapist to do god knows what with you, so he could boost up his company and wouldn't have cared either."

Haru: "Thats..."

Akira: "Oh and lets not forget Ann. If I didn't start the Phantom Thieves you, Shiho and all those other students would have stayed Kamoshida's play things. Oh yeah...and you would still be living with the title of his personal little slut."

Ann: "Argh..."

Akira: "See that? Thats the difference between you and me. To get through life and face you're fears and troubles you need some kinda crutch to support you, because you don't have the strength, skill, or courage to do it on you're own. Even when you get the courage to fight back the second things get bad you turn tail and run. You're weakness disgust me." Akira takes another puff.

Makoto: "Not EVERYONE is as strong as you Akira! Everyone has their limits! That doesn't make us weak!"

Akira blew out smoke and sighed loudly.

Akira: "Well then you must have alot tying you down to be at you're level of uselessness. You just BARELY contributed to the team Makoto. Me, Morgana, and Futaba are work just fine at making good tactical strategies. We hardly ever went through with any of your plans. Face it, you were pretty much just extra muscle, nothing too important."

Makoto nearly crushed her chocolate in her hands.

Akira: "Kindness, compassion, hope, good will...all unnecessary and pointless sentiments. POWER is the only true necessity."

Makoto: "What about all those things you said about helping people? Protecting the weak? and bringing criminals to justice?!"

Akira: "Justice? Please...there is NO true justice. Justice is simply a term people use to excuse their actions, good or bad."

Makoto: "Thats not true Akira! Justice is real! You just have to believe in it!"

Akira: "Oooooohhh! Check the wisdom on this one! What are ya gonna say? Justice will come to those who deserve it? There is justice but it just needs people enforce it? Wow! Cool Makoto! I didn't know we were quoting things off of fortune cookies and bumper stickers! It doesn't matter if you spend you're entire life doing the right thing and selflessly devote yourself to others...a happy ending will NEVER be guaranteed. Even if you're a pure hearted person to the end, its more then likely you'll end up with nothing to show for it." He said twirling the cig in between his fingers.

Akira: "No matter what way you look at it facts...are simply opinions that are highly agreed on by the general public. There are no real facts in this world, their just overrated opinions that people have tricked themself's into believing are true."

Akira: "Whats good, bad, right, wrong, pure and evil. They are ALL just opinions. You're views of right and wrong and justice...are all in your heads." He took another puff.

They all stayed silent. Akira blew out smoke in the air.

Akira: "I started this whole Phantom Thieves thing for my own benefit. I don't give a shit about good will and being a hero. All those people who were suffering by Kamoshida, Madarame, Kaneshiro, Okumura, and Shido's hands could suck it. I only went through with it to save the world from ruin, If the world ended I couldn't achieve my goal. Taking down Shido was just a fortunate turn of events. If I didn't have to save the world by being a Phantom thief, I never would have bothered with any of you."

Ann: "You are so VILE! Are you telling me you would have just let all those people suffer?! Even me and shiho?!"

Akira: "Ughh...Yeah. Cause like I said I don't give a shit about you, Kamoshida could have done whatever the hell he wanted to or Shiho. I also wouldn't have cared if Shiho had died that day."

Ann: "You heartless son of a bitch!"

Takemi: "So all that stuff you said about helping me out because you loved me was all a lie huh?"

Akira: "Duh...Honestly...me be YOU'RE lab rat out of love or outta the goodness of my heart? You really thought that was the truth Tae? Really?! Fuck you!" He spat at her.

Takemi gave him a death glare. But he simply rolled his eyes at her.

Ichiko: "I swear I'm sick of dealing with shitheads like you."

Akira: "Yeah well you're no fucking prize yourself bitch."

Ichiko: "WHAT...did you must call me?" She snarled.

Akira: "BITCH. Whore, slut, cunt, bimbo, cum dumpster, harlot. Take you're pick."

Chihaya: "I regret ever calling you my friend...and I REALLY regret calling you my boyfriend!"

Akira: "You can see the fucking past and future but you can't see that I was playing you? Those are some useless ass psychic powers you got there. Hey guess what? I have a six sense too! And it says...you are a dumbass."

Hifumi: "When I really got to know you...I saw you as this white knight in shining armor...but now I see you for the beast you really are."

Akira: "We are all beast darling. All of us. It's just I'm smart enough to admit it. Get use to it, cause you're gonna find a hell of alot more people like me no matter where you are. There are no honest people out in this back water world. Everyone has an ulterior motive."

Haru: "Thats not true! There are good people out there!"

Akira: "Oh yeah? Care to introduce me to one? Everyone has something to hide Haru. Even you."

Akira: "The only reason I entered a relationship with you all is so that you would all give helping me out an extra 100%. I already didn't want to be bothered with this whole Phantom Thieves crap, so I did what I deemed necessary to make it easier for me and to make this go by quicker."

Sadayo: "So you toyed with my heart just to make things easier for you?!" She roared.

Akira: "Pretty much. You were a means to an end." He said tapping the ash of the cig in the sink next to him.

Sadayo: "What about all that secret personal stuff you told me! Things you'd never tell anyone?!"

Akira: "You mean my many sob stories? You actually bought that bullshit?" He said taking another puff and blowing out smoke.

Sadayo: "SOB stories?! So you being sexually abused by your own mother-"

Akira: "Lie."

Haru: "The story about your neglectful parents?!"

Akira: "Lie."

Ann: "The one about you being bullied?!

Akira: "Liiiiiiie..."

Ichiko: "So that story about the abusive drunken mother..."

Akira: "Total lie."

Makoto: "Grr...and the whole run away dad story?"

Akira: "Lie, lie, lie, lieylieyliey lie."

Akira: "NONE of you know my real story. Hell you don't even know my real last name. And I don't plan on telling you either."

Akira: "Its on a need to know basis and you don't need to know. All you need to know is your parts have been played and I no longer have any use for any you. Your all dead weight. Now do me a favor and get the hell outta my face."

Makoto: "Excuse me?! Do you really think you can say all that stuff and get away with it?!"

Ichiko: "I kinda feel like punching your face." She threaten.

Akira: "Oh please. I could deal with you in 10 seconds. No...5 seconds. And no. I do not care that you're female. If you attack me I WILL defend myself and you WILL regret it." He said placing the cig in his mouth and leaving it there, while he placed one hand in his pocket.

Ann: "You coward! You have no right to run from this!"

Akira: "Nag nag nag...you have no right...bla bla bla...Tell me Ann-chan...did kamoshida have the right to do the things he did? Did Madarame? Did Kaneshiro? Did Okumura? Did Shido? No but they did it anyway. You know why? Because they had the power to do it and get away with it. The only reason they lost was because someone with greater power then them showed up. The strong live...and the weak die. Those are the rules."

Akira: "I am strong. You are weak. The only reason you girls were able to become strong was through me lending you my strength. And you have the NERVE to call the strength you wield now ours? You people are experts at pissing me off. Amazing..."

Makoto: "...Why...why Akira? You did so much good! So much for others! We fought for our lives together! And we saved the world! We were hero's!"

Akira: "Oh my fucking god...Makoto, Haru, Ann...we were NEVER HEROS! Hero's don't work outside the law! Hero's don't go against the law! And hero's most certainly don't comit crime to stop crime! We were outlaws! Anti-heros! We took the law into our own hands, because the government authority failed us! So get this righteous savior crap out of your heads!"

Haru: "...Even if we weren't hero's...we still helped people! We still put the world on a better path!"

Akira: "For now. But how long will that last? Months? Years? Humanity holds a record for fucking up chances to better themself's. How long will it take before society becomes distorted again? I'd give it a few years. Like...2 or 3."

Takemi: "You don't seem to have much faith in others."

Akira: "No shit Sherlock. The trail of life is cruel...unbearable cruel. And people are weak. Weak enough to ruin us all. You girls are a PERFECT example."

Akira: "Weak, foolish, spineless, and pathetic, unless you have someone to give you a reason to live your own life."

Sadayo: "I honestly can't believe I ever opened my heart to you."

Akira: "See? Thats exactly what I'm talking about. Always be careful who you trust in this world, because that person you trust and let you're guard down around...just might be the one that puts a bullet in you're head. You all dream of a world where theres nothing but peaceful days, a place where there are no wars, no stealing, no killing, and no one lies."

Akira: "Let me be the one to tell you that your dreams...are FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE. Seriously! A world were society is fair and honest? Are you idiots?! You got a better chance of finding a holy sword suck in stone!"

Chihaya: "People can change their own fates if they just have the strength to do so!"

Akira: "If they have to will to bring out that strength, which a majority of people don't. Why? Because their weak. And the fate of the weak is suffering and death."

Makoto: "You sound just like Shido..."

Akira: "Shido was every bit as pathetic as Akechi. But hey like Father like Son."

Makoto: "Akechi would have never been like that if it wasn't for Shido's selfish actions!"

Akira: "Oh stop defending that worthless insect. He was every bit of responsible for his own actions then Shido was. However in the end he just didn't have the power to see it through. Poor Akechi...a sad empty piece of attention starved trash crying out for daddy...I'm glad he's dead. Now I don't have to worry about killing him myself. Hehehe!"

Haru: "How can you say that?!"

Akira: "What? He got in my way. I have no sympathy for him."

Sadayo: "Akechi...is dead?"

Ichiko: "Seriously?!"

Akira: "Yeah. Thankfully. One less pain in my ass."

Ann: "I take back the scum comment...you're less than scum."

Akira: "Yeah yeah fuck you too. Sheesh the only thing that mouth of you're is good for is pleasing. I should know...wink wink.~" He smiled.

Ann: "I will-

Akira: "You'll what? Kick my ass? Woman...two almighty gods that rule over power couldn't take my heat. What chance do you have? ZERO."

Makoto: "I bet you feel really good picking on people weaker then you..."

Akira: "Hmm? Is that a challenge I hear?"

Makoto: "What if it is?" She shot back.

Akira: "Then you're in for one hell of a time."

Makoto the dropped her chocolate and stepped closer.

Makoto: "I am NOT afraid of you Akira."

Akira: "You're not? Oooohhh we'll have to fix that won't we? You know...I hear alot about you Niijimas...you always have that fierce fighting spirit burning inside you. You never give up and take whatever comes head on! But you know what?"

Makoto: "What?" She said in a cold tone.

Akira: "I think it's time someone put that fire out..."

Makoto's eye twitched.

Makoto: "Is that right?"

Akira: "Awwww...little Mako-chan's getting all huffy! How adorable!~"

Makoto: "Akira...do NOT test me." She threaten.

Akira: "Oooohhhh...and if I don't listen?"

She then cracked her wrists.

Makoto: "You'll regret it."

Akira: "Lets see what you've got miss honor student."

Makoto didn't waste another second and threw a punch at Akira's face, the boy dodged it by tilting his head slightly to the left. He then threw his knee into Makoto's stomach.

Makoto: "ARGH!" She stumbled back and held her stomach.

Ann: "You bastard!" Ann the charged at him.

Just when she got close enough Akira throat chopped her. She then stepped back holding her throat trying to breath.

Ichiko: "Okay THAT'S IT!"

Ichiko then ran at him winding up a punch but right as she got close Akira slammed his foot into her chest sending her sliding on floor on her back.

The others where frozen in place to shocked to try anything.

Akira: "*Sigh*...Like always...all bark and no bite. A true disappointment."

Makoto: "Argh..your GARBAGE!" She charged at him again.

Akira then leg swept her, as she hit the ground he kicked her in the side.

Makoto: "ARGH!"

He then stomped on her head keeping her from getting up. He the grinded the heel of his shoe on her head.

Akira: "Hehehehe...how amusing you know you can't win yet you try anyway..."

Sadayo: "Stop this now Akira! You've made your point!" She demanded placing a hand on his shoulder.

Akira: "...Yeah yeah fine. I've had my fun." He then took his foot of her head.

Akira then took the cig out off his mouth and tapped the ash onto Makoto's head.

Akira: "They don't call me the main man for nothing." He said picking up Makoto's chocolate.

Makoto slowly got back up and stared at him with fury in her eyes. Sadayo and placed a hand her shoulder.

Sadayo: "Stop...Its not worth it...okay?"

Akira: "And this is what I think of your heart." Akira then dropped the chocolate in front of him and stomped on it repeatedly.

Makoto simply looked away and held back tears. Ann and Ichiko recovered just to see Akira give their chocolate the same treatment.

Akira: "You fucking cunts have wasted my time for long enough. I don't care that what I do you find wrong or evil and REALLY don't care if you don't like it. If you have a problem with it do me a favor and go bitch about to someone who cares. Ann, you have Shiho, Ichiko, you have Lala-chan, Hifumi, you have you're mother, Haru, you have the others, Makoto, you have you're sister, and...oh wait...Sadayo...Tae...Chihaya...you three don't have any friends. My bad!~"

They all gave him a sour look. Akira then walked over to Chihaya and yanked her chocolate outta her hand crushed it.

Akira: "I hate the color orange." He then pulled her headband over her eyes and walked over to Haru.

Chihaya cursed at him under her breath.

He then took her chocolate and store it in half.

Akira: "Pink gives me hives." He then flicked her forehead.

Haru wanted to smack him but was too afraid at what he would do.

He then made his way to hifumi. He took her chocolate and tossed it into the ceiling fan.

Akira: "Let's be honest...It probably tasted like shit. Stay outta the kitchen and just stick to shogi."

Hifumi clenched her fist tightly and held back tears. Akira then made his way to Takemi, Akira then too her chocolate then pulled out his pocket knife and stabbed the box. He the dragged the knife upwards cutting the box in two.

Akira: "I wouldn't accept anything edible from you, and I think you know why."

Takemi: "Well maybe that's a good thing, given my feelings of you now." She gave a cold glare.

Akira: "Heh...scary."

Akira then looks over at Sadayo.

Akira: "You can keep you're chocolate. Gods knows you'll need some comfort."

Akira: "Now you can all go die somewhere for all I care. Get it? This little game we played is over. Before you go, let me teach you a meaningful lesson. We don't always get what we want in life alright? Especially in romance. You think you're going to live happily ever after but by the end of it...you'll find yourself's pinched on the ground, and then you'll realize you've been wasting you're time. Life isn't a fairy tale. Get use to it and get over it."

Sadayo: "You really are troubled...I really thought me you cold have..."

Akira: "Sorry but someone of my level, skill, and strength has NO romantic interest with people who walk below me. If I ever have any romantic feelings for anybody it will be someone of my caliber or higher. You honestly thought me and you were on the same level? Don't make laugh. I was NEVER one of you, from the moment I stepped foot in this god forsaken town I stood alone."

Makoto: "You're not human...you're a DEMON in human skin!"

Akira: "Thank you for the compliment. Oh yeah and if you all try to plot something to get back at me...I would strongly advise you not to. Because now that I'm a free man again that means I need to get back to striving to achieve my goal. So that means I wont let anything or one get in my way. So if you hinder me in anyway I wont hesitate to deal with you, and trust me...you wouldn't want that."

Haru: "...You know...Akira-kun...you the only light I had in my life for so long...and it gave me...hope...but now...its dead...you killed it...YOU...the person who gave me that hope and happiness...took it and my heart away...and just ...j-just...c-crushed it..." Her voice cracked.

Akira: "It's like I told ya before Haru-chan. ALWAYS keep an eye on those around you, and also be mindful of who you let into your comfort zone. Hehehehe...you poor little fool...I had you pegged for a hired hand the minute you joined me."

Haru: "You...are no hero...you're a bully and a lair!"

Akira: "Whatever cunt." He blew smoke in her face.

Akira: "Oh yeah Ichiko."

Ichiko gave him a hateful stare.

Ichiko: "What?" her voice trembled.

Akira: "These fell off you're head when I kicked you." He held her sunglasses in his hand.

Ichiko walked over and reached for them but Akira crushed them in his hand.

Akira: "Whoops...~" He smirked.

Ichiko clenched her fist tightly and glared at him. She stared him down for a few seconds, and then Akira saw a tear go down her eye as she back away from him.

Akira: "Disappointing...as usual."

Akira: "Alright that's it I'm through talking. All you bitches get lost. And do me a favor and keep your distance from me. You shits arent worth the dirt under my shoes. You...you're dreams...you're morals, you're justice, you're feelings, and everything and one you hold sacred...I SPIT apon."

They all stared at him for a few moments...their angry and scornful looks slowly replaced with sad, defeated, and humiliated expressions. Most of them looked like they were resisting with all their might not to burst into tears. Slowly one by one they all sluggishly walked out the cafe...Akira gave them all the finger on their way out. Before he knew he was all alone in the cafe.

Akira: "Losers!" He yelled taking one last puff of his cig.

He held the smoke in his mouth as he dropped the cig on the floor and stomped it out. He then took a seat in of of the chairs and leaned back, resting one arm on the counter. He then blew out a large amount of smoke in the air. He could feel his social links with them shatter and fade away.

Akira: "Ahhhh...that...felt...GOOD. Hehehe..." He laughed.

Akira: "Welp I'm spent. *Yawn!*" Akira stretched and made his way upstairs.

The boy then switched into his sleep attire and laid down on his bed. Just as he was about to close his eyes and drift off to sleep he remembered something.

Akira: "Crap! I forgot...I told Sojiro I'd call him when it was all over..." He then picked up his phone and called Sojiro. The phone rang for a few seconds then Sojiro's voice could be heard.

Sojiro: "Hello?"

Akira: "Yo old man. Its all good now. Everything is aaaaallll taken care of."

Sojiro: "I'm surprise you sound...well...hey...you didn't...do any thing crazy? Did you?"

Akira: "Me? Crazy? HA! Sojiro Sakura, I assure you, I have NO idea what you're talking about!~ We all just sat down and...got to...know each other better and found some mutual understanding. Thats all."

Sojiro: "Well alright then...I'm coming back to see if my cafes still in one piece."

Akira: "You're faith in me is overwhelming. See ya." Akira the hung up and shut his eyes.

( With Futaba. )

Futaba sat in her room in front of her computer...she...had never taken the bugs out of the cafe...and she was listening in on the whole thing. She could only lean back in her chain and run a hand through her hair. To be honest...Futaba knew Akira wasn't a good person...she knew...about it all...the cheating...his true feelings toward others...but...she didn't care. He was her family...he was always there for her and Sojiro. And he actually cared for them...Akira loved them like his own family, and she was grateful for that. It's the reason he kept her out of his web of lies and why he wanted Sojiro to leave the cafe when he did...he wanted Sojio to keep that image of a good person in him. He may hate the others...he may have done and said horrible to them too...and his methods of pushing himself forward were...not ideal..but...

Futaba: "He still has morals of his own...he would never hurt me, Sojiro, or Morgana and he's not completely heartless...so...I'm still going to call him my brother...my family...even if he walks on a darker path."

Futaba: "But still...he could held back just a little bit with them...but thats just not his style...Heh...what else could you expect..."

Futaba then took off her glasses and stared up at the ceiling.

Futaba: "From...a Yakuza..."

( With Sojiro )

Sojiro then walked into the cafe with Morgana right behind him. Sojiro looked around and saw the mess Akira made out of the girl's chocolate.

Sojiro: "*Sigh*...That boy...is something else...talked things out huh? He really can be a pain in the ass..but...I guess he's my pain in the ass." He smiled.

Morgana: "Akira..."

Sojiro: "Go on upstairs with Akira. I'm gonna clean up down here."

Morgana the ran up stairs and saw Akira laying in the bed. Morgana then ran to him and jumped onto the bed and onto his chest. He was sleeping peacefully with a smirk on his face.

Morgana: "...I give up...I don't think I'll ever figure you out...just when I think I've got you down...you just show another massive unforeseen depth of your personality...there's just simply...too much to you Akira...you never cease to amaze me. Thats why...that why I know if I stay with you...I'll find the answer I'm looking for...and become a real human. So please..."

Morgana the curled up next Akira and shut his eyes.

Morgana: "Let me stay by your side until then..." He then drifted off into sleep.

After a few minutes passed and Sojiro came upstairs to talk to Akira but say him and the cat sleeping.

Sojiro: "...*Sigh*...What I'm I gonna do with you?" He said walking to the bed side.

Sojiro looked down at the boy who slept with a smirk on his face. He found it amazing how not only did the boy not have a single scratch or bruise on him...he was sleeping peacefully like nothing had even happened.

Sojiro: "Agh...I guess. Here kid." Sojiro then placed some chocolate on the side of his bed.

Sojiro: "Some lady at the store gave it to me, but you can have it. See you in the later kid." He smiled and walked off.

Akira's left eye opened and watched Sojiro go down the stairs.

Akira: "Heh...thanks...old man..." He the drifted off back to sleep.

Akira then suddenly felt a strange sensation...he opened his eyes to see he wasn't in his bed...and he was standing in a black void...

Akira:"The hell? This a dream?" He looked around confused.

A bright blue light then flash in front of Akira, he covered his eyes from the harsh light. Once it faded, he opened his eyes and saw a blue metal door with a neon flashing sign with the words open on it, hanging from the door. There was also a long blue velvet carpet underneath the door.

Akira: "Hold on...the...velvet room? Wait...but...the door was a cell door..." Akira pondered but ultimately decided to walk to the door.

He the slowly grabbed the door knob and turned it, he slowly pulled the door opened. When he walked in he was met with a grand style bar. The place was luxurious...I could easily rate five stars. He could only look around in amazement at the blue themed bar.

Akira: "Is...this the Velvet room?"

?: "Correct."

Akira quickly jerked his head in th direction of the voice. There was a woman standing behind the counter drying a glass and smiling at him.

Akira: "Ahh..." He slowly approached the woman.

As he got closer he got a better look at her. She had long white hair tied in a long braid and beautiful side bangs. Golden eyes, silver ear rings, red lipstick, a black vest, a dark blue formal shirt underneath the black vest with gold buttons, a black bow tie, and a long dark blue dress. She also looked kinda older then him, like mid 20s. Also...he couldn't help but notice her huge rack.

?: "Welcome back to the Velvet room...my dear trickster..." She said warmly.

Akira: "Uggh...hello?" He said ner sitting down in a chair.

?: "Awww...whats wrong Akira? Have you forgotten me already? You wound me trickster."

Akira: "Do I know you?...wait...no...no freaking way...Lavenza?!" He gasped.

Lavenza: "Good to see you again my trickster."

Akira: "Holy shit! H-h-how?! You look..."

Lavenza: "Different? Older? Well...I asked my master for a favor. Is it to you're liking?~" She cooed.

Akira: "Hehehe...I can't say I don't." He said staring at her bust.

Lavenza: "Bold as always. *Giggle.*"

Akira: "Hey ughh...whats with this place? It was a prison before right? Whats with the sudden change? And why did you guys summon me back here? My journey is over right?"

Lavenza: "Well...yes...and no..." She said looking away and curling her hair with her finger.

Akira: "...Let me guess...there's some new crisis up ahead right?"

Lavenza: "Its not really new...its actually the crisis my master was originally going to task you with before this whole survival game madness. That evil god compromised everything..."

Akira: "Sooo...my real journey has yet to begin?"

Lavenza: "Correct. However with the power and skills you developed through the trail of the holy grail, there's no doubt in my mind you will succeed in your true adventure." She smiled.

Akira: "You'd know it. So...whats the deal?"

Lavenza: "Oh you don't have to worry about at the moment."

Akira: "Huh? Why not?"

Lavenza: "The crisis isn't that bad at the moment. However it won't stay like that for long. You have time to rest from you're previous journey and prepare for you're new task. However please know that this crisis IS a world ending threat."

Akira: "Fate of the world again huh? Cool...I work better under pressure. So how much time do I have?"

Lavenza: "A month. Me and my master are still setting things up to aid you in you're adventure. Once there all set me and my master will summon you here again to give you the full details."

Akira: "Okay then...I'll use my time wisely. Oh yeah...speaking of Igor...where is he?" He asked looking around.

Lavenza: "Oh he's away at the moment. He had some urgent business to attend to."

Akira: "Wait...if he's away...then who summoned me here?"

Lavenza: " I summoned you here. In fact...my master has no Idea you're here right now...we had planed to summon you once it was time but...well..." She smiled and looked down tracing her finger on the counter.

Akira: "But...?" He raised an eyebrow.

Lavenza: "I wanted to see you...In person." She looked up at him blushing.

Akira smiled at her.

Akira: "Hehehe...well..I don't mind."

Lavenza: "*Giggle~* I'm happy to hear."

Akira then noticed that Lavenza looked like she wanted to say something...

Akira: "Lavenza. Is...there something on you're mind?"

Lavenza smiled and leaned forward resting her arms on the counter.

Lavenza: "Tell me you love me honey.~" She cooed.

Akira: "Huh?!" He blushed harshly.

Akira was taken back by Lavenza boldness and...flirtation...

Akira: "L-Lavenza...I...you..."

Lavenza: "Oh please trickster. You think I didn't notice? I may have been split in half but both their memories are mine as well now. As you deepened you're bond with the two, you admired them alot. But It was when you challenged them to a fight within mementos...that you fell in love with them didn't you? I mean it was perfect. They had strong personalities, would fulfill their duties no matter the limits, and they were insanely strong? It was an instant click for you."

Akira couldn't deny it...it was true. But...

Lavenza: "However...you restrained yourself from taking you're relationship with them a step further...because of their appearance..am I right?"

Akira: "...Yes...I mean...why wouldn't I? They looked like little kids...I know you Velvet room attendants could be alot older then you seem but...still...I would just...look weird. I definitely couldn't take them out...or hang around with others around...without someone calling the cops on me..."

Lavenza: "I see...and it was the same when you met me right?"

Akira: "Right...but now.."

Lavenza: "The problem is fixed.~"

Akira: "Yeah...it is. And you look like an older woman sooooo...bonus points.~"

Lavenza: "You really like older women huh? Mr. Heart breaker."

Akira: "Ehhh...they were just confidants. And fuck buddies, thats all."

Lavenza: "Well?"

Akira: "Well what?" He cocked his head.

Lavenza the puffed her cheeks looking clearly aggravated.

Lavenza: "This is the part where you say, I love you."

Akira:"Hehehe...right. I love you Lavenza." He said blushing.

Lavenza: "I as well my trickster...you truely are a man without compare in this world."

Akira: "And you are a lady without compare in this universe. Certainly better then those clods I had the displeasure of knowing."

Lavenza: "Well...I'm not one to brag but...I can't say you're wrong.~"

Lavenza: "Sooo...what may I serve you tonight?"

Akira: "Hmmm...what do you have?"

Lavenza: "Various services...but..theres a...special event on our menu...just for you.~" She winked.

Akira: "Ooohh...I like the sound of that. What's it called?"

Lavenza: "A Velvet Valentine...~"

Akira: "Hmmm...sounds good. I'll take that please.~"

Lavenza: "Hmhmhmhm...you're wish is my command...Akira..~" She cupped his chin with her fingers.

Lavenza: "Why don't you take a seat in on of those booths? I'll be with you soon.~"

Akira: "Don't keep me waiting.~" He said getting up and going over to one of the booths.

Akira sat down in on of the booths and simply waited for Lavenza. Akira tapped his fingers on the table waiting eagerly for her. He then saw Lazenza come his way, she was holding a trey with two glass cup and a large blue bottle on it.

Lavenza: "Sorry for the wait." She apologized sitting the trey down in front of him.

Akira: "I'd wait for you forever."

Lavenza: "Flattery will get you...just about everywhere with me." She smiled sitting down in the booth opposite of him.

Lavenza: "*Giggle!* I'm so happy I get to be with you like this...I always thought this day...would only be in my dreams."

Akira: "Hey, some dreams come true."

Lavenza: "They do when you're around.~"

Lavenza: "Oh right! Hold on..." She the reached behind her and pulled out a dark blue star shaped box with yellow wrapping on it.

Lavenza: "I thought about you the whole time I was making it.~" She blushed.

Akira: "And I'll think about you the whole time I'm eating it.~" He cooed.

Lavenza: "You really know how to make a girl blush huh?"

Lavenza: "My master will be gone for a while so lets just have fun together."

Akira: "I've missed you..."

Lavenza: "Me too...but were together now. And more then enough for me."

Lavenza: "Could I...sit next to you?"

Akira: "I'd be insulted if you didn't." He smiled.

Lavenza smiled and sat next to Akira.

Lavenza: "You know...I dread the day when you destiny to the Velvet room comes to a conclusion...because when that day comes...you'll no longer have a reason to come here anymore...we...we..."

Akira: "It will be okay Lavenza. WE will be okay. We'll think of something...together." He smiled at her.

Lavenza: "Akira...Hehehe...yes, you're right. You can overcome any problem if you give it you're all...I mean...you do posses infinite potential after all."

Lavenza: "No more depressing talk. I've waited a whole year for this moment and I'm going to enjoy every single second of it!" She then grabbed the two glasses and bottle from the trey.

She placed both glasses filled with ice in front of them and uncorked the bottle and poured a pink liquid into them.

Lavenza: "And so are you.~" She said picking up a glass.

Akira: "I already am." He took a glass as well.

They both clinked their glasses together and took a sip.

Lavenza: "You know...I'm always serving you...and granting you're wishes...well tonight...you're going to fulfill MY wishes." She purred.

Akira: "Hehehehe...you're wish is my command."

Lavenza: "Well then...how about we get comfortable?~" She purred while snapping her fingers.

As she did that the lights in the room turned dim and pink and music played.

( Disgaea 4: Sepia-colored dream. )

Akira: "Wow! Talk about setting the mood! Me likey...~"

Lavenza: "I'm glad you approve." She said taking another sip of her drink and resting her head on his shoulder.

Lavenza: "Hey...once we're finish this bottle...why don't we continue our fun somewhere...private? Like...my room?" She blushed.

Akira: "Sounds like a plan." He taking another drink.

After a while of drinking, talking, flirting, and making out, the two finally finished off the bottle and both headed to Lavenza's room. They both spent a romantic night together...They both laid next to each other in the king sized bed staring up at the ceiling.

Akira: "Wow...Ann, Ichiko, Sadayo, and Tae be damned..." He exclaimed running a hand through his messy hair.

Lavenza: "I've been reading books on this stuff."

Akira: "Those were some good freaking books." He the sat up and cracked his neck.

Akira: "Man I really want a-

Lavenza then sat up next to him and held up a blue little box with cigarettes in it.

Lavenza: "This?" She winked.

Akira: "God I adore you." He said taking a cig out and placed it in his mouth.

Lavenza took one out for herself too and placed it in her mouth. Lavenza the snapped her fingers and a small flame appeared on her finger. She then lit both their cigs.

Akira: "Ahhh..this is perfect." He said blowing out smoke.

Lavenza: "I do aim to please." She smiled twirling her cig between her fingers.

Akira: "Thanks for tonight Lavenza. It was amazing."

Lavenza only giggled and took a puff of her cig. She then blew out a smoke cloud that formed a heart.

Akira: "Badass..."

Lavenza then looked down for a few seconds and frowned.

Akira: "Whats wrong?" He asked.

Lavenza: "I much as I wish we could stay like this forever...unfortunately...our time for today is up trickster. I can sense my master's returns...I must send you back to you're world now..."

She looked very upset. Akira could only wrap his arm around her and pull her close.

Akira: "We'll have other times together. Don't worry."

Lavenza looked into his eyes passionately.

Lavenza: "I look forward to them." She then placed a hand on his cheek and pulled him in for a kiss.

Lavenza then placed her chocolate on his lap.

Lavenza: "Farewell for now...darling.~" She waved goodbye.

Akira's vision faded to dark. When he awoke he was back in his own bed in the real world. He then felt light shine on his face through the window. It was morning. He rubbed his eyes and sighed.

Akira: "My real journey huh?...Fine. I guess I got another one in me." He then turned his to see Lavenza's chocolate next to his head.

Akira: "..."

Akira then smiled and blushed.

Akira: "Power attracts power...the strong attract other strong...and abnormals...attract other abnormals..."

Akira: "It's that simple..." He smiled.
