*Akira POV*

Me and team RWBY were in vale to do some errands. JNPR join us as well. There seemed to be a commotion going on in town.

Akira: What's going on?

Weiss: It's the Vytal Festival you dolt. How could you forget.

Akira: What's the Vytal Festival?

Ruby: Akira have you still not recovered your memories?

Akira: I have but I never heard of the Vytal Festival.

Weiss: It's only the biggest most important festival that is meant to bring people together.

We kept walking as I was thinking of how to tell them I'm not from Remnant. After a bit we come across a crime scene.

Akira: What's going on here?

Officer: Someone broke into the shop and stole all the dust.

Weiss: It was probably the White Fang.

Akira: You girls asked if I was part of them when we met who are they.

Weiss: A bunch of faunus who are nothing but thieves and criminals.

Akira/Blake: *Annoyed*

Blake: They wouldn't do this. The White Fang are about getting equal rights for the faunus.

Akira: Who says thieves can't be the heroes?

Weiss: What's with you two defending criminals?

Akira: Not all thieves are criminals. Some steal for a cause.

Blake: The White Fang only want equality.

Weiss: You two just don't understand.

Blake: *Angry cat noises*

Akira: Blake is there a bookstore nearby?

After getting directions from Blake I got the book I was looking for.

Akira: Better keep Tukson's book trade in mind.

I then went to catch up with the girls.

*Small Time skip*

Weiss: Akira there you are you dolt why'd you leave?

Akira: I thought to get you a book about a gentleman thief.  Actually I got a copy for you all.  When your done reading it I need to discuss something with you all.

They all accept it with Blake looking shocked at the title.  Later that night I heard arguing coming from the RWBY dorm room.  Sounded like Blake and Weiss.  I swear she is going to have a palace of pride soon.  Not long after that thought there was a knock on my door.  Opening it I found Blake on the other side.

Akira: Blake?  What a surprise please come in.

Blake: Thanks Akira.

Since I'm the only one in the room it was more of a small apartment which suited me just fine.  We sat on the couch I was about to ask if she wanted anything, but she spoke up first.

Blake: Akira I got a couple of questions.  First off why the book Arsene the gentleman thief?

Akira: Cause I believe not all thieves are bad.

Blake: Second did you mean what you said earlier about seeing faunus as no different then humans?

Akira: Of course.  I don't judge based on what a person is.  Faunus or not it's actions that make a person in the right or wrong.

Blake: Is there something your not telling us?

Akira: I knew you'd figure it out.  I'm not from the kingdoms nor Remnant.  I'm from a place called earth.  I was also a phantom thief who stole the hearts of corrupt adults making them change their ways.  My and my fellow persona users formed a team we called [Knightmare].  So in a sense I'm no different then Maurice Lablance's Arsene.

Blake: Well you also got your persona Arsene.  You care even though you try to keep a blank expression.  And since your spilling the beans I think I should as well.

(Same as canon)

I watched as she took off her bow to show a pair of cat ears.

Akira: *mumble* don't tell me to go to bed Morgana *mumble*

Blake: *ears twitch* You say something?

Akira: No nothing.  Anyway why tell me all this?

Blake: To be honest I feel like I can trust you more then others right now.

???:
I am thou, thou art I
Thou hast acquired a new vow

It shall become the wings of rebellion
That breaketh Thu chains of captivity

With the birth of the priestess persona, I have obtains the winds of blessing that shall lead to freedom and new power.

Akira: Thanks Blake that means a lot to me.

Blake: Also I might be needing a favor or a skilled thief.

*Time skip*

We were at the docks waiting for any sign of a dust shipment or the white fang.  I was currently in my phantom thief attire while blake had a modified version of her huntress garb.  After a while there was movement as a ship arrived with males and females wearing these weird hoods and mask.

Blake: So the white fang is involved.

Akira: I think they were ordered too.

Blake: what makes yoy say that?

I point to a guy in a hat that looks to be giving orders.

Akira: Lets stop them Blake.

Blake: Yes.

As we left our vantage point we started knocking out the grunts who made it out of sight.  Getting close I notice the man had on a white suit and had bright redish orange hair.  I moved in but I didn't notice Blake anywhere.  I didn't notice the man turned around.

???: Quite impressive ....... What's with the get up and outfit you trying to be a clown?

Akira: Actually I'm Joker.

???: Well Joker I don't got time for you so my associate will have to keep you company.  It seems your kitty partner has already met with one of them.

As if on cue two Blake gets knocked towards me.  Looking up i see two people come out of the shadows.

Blake: Adam please stop this madness.

???: Neo be a good girl and send "Joker" here away please.

I watch as the girl just nods.  Looking at Blake she is staring at the man named Adam.

Adam: Ive come to get you my love.

Blake: I don't love someone who thinks violence is the way!

The girl Neo just walks up to me swaying her hips.  I had one hope to end this without hurting her too bad.

Joker: Arsene (Dream needle)

Hoping for the sleep effect to activate to incapacitate my opponent so i wouldn't hurt her.  The moment the attack hit she just shatters like glass.  I had just enough time to block an attack with my dagger.  I noitced her umbrella had a hidden sword.  Well when the fast way doesn't work there is always max charm.  I gently bring my hand up and cup her cheek.

Joker: Now that I get a good look at you, your quite beautiful Neo.  Why not leave the bad guys and come join me at Beacon.

Neo: ?!

Blake: Gahh!

Looking towards Blake she is getting her ass kicked.  Leaving the blushing mess that was Neo I tried to help my friend.  That wad till our other friends showed up.  I quickly tell me to call me Joker over a scroll message which got seen.

Ruby: Joker what's going on?

Joker: Long story talk later.

Adam: You can't beat me Blake just give up and accept my love.

I've had enough and I pray what I hope to cause happens.

Joker: Blake reject everything he says, reject everything that's been against you.  Rebel against that which makes you suffer.

Adam: These your friends? Maybe I should kill them so they don't witness you abandoning them.

(Play song up top)

Before he could even move Blake cried out in pain again.  Good she should be able to properly handle this.

???2: My my purrrincess can you finally hear me?  You've run away from everything aren't you tired of running?  It's time to stand and fight love.  Don't let this man ruin your purrfect happiness here.  What do you say form a contract with me and let's show the world why spilt tailed cats should be feared.

Blake: Your right.  I'm done with running away out of fear.  I'm happy here and he can't stop me.

(Blake's mask.  Don't own the art credit to the artist)

I watched as she grabed the newly formed mask and ripped it off.  Seeing her in her phantom thief attire brought back unpleasant memories of the pain my old friends went through.

Blake: Lets show him what it means to be in true darkness Nekoshou (Eiha)

I watched a familiar flame of darkness leave the persona's sword.  Adam tried to block it with his katana but he gets launched back by the sheer force.  He staggers to his feet then retreats.  I look for Neo but don't see her anywhere.  I catch Blake as she falls over.  Her phantom thief clothes turned back to normal.

Ruby: Oh my oum! What was in credible Blake your like Akira now!

Blake: I am?

Akira: You are.

Weiss: How is that possible though.

Akira: I got a guess but that's a long explanation.  Can it wait till tomorrow?

Yang: Sure.  I'm pretty beat myself.

End new power?!  So here's a thought if I were to try and redeem a villain (ex cinder) who'd you want to see get added to the team or be a rival to Akira.
