Castle of Lust

"Alright! Time to bust on through!" Ryuji announced as he and I were in our thief attire whole Morgana had morphed back into his bipedal form, all of us ready to storm the castle and get **** on Kamoshida.

"What is this!?" a voice screeched and the three of us jumped.

"Crap, why does shit like this always happen?" I groaned as we turned when we heard someone shout in alarm.

That someone I recognised as Ann Takamaki standing on the drawbridge even before she walked up to us, looking a little freaked out.

"Takamaki!?" Ryuji exclaimed as soon as he saw her.

"That voice? Sakamoto!?" Ann questioned in alarm, making Ryuji flinch at being recognised so easily while the natural blonde turned to me with wide eyes. "And are you Doe-kun!?"

"Yup." I admitted with a sigh, knowing I couldn't hide from her after she figured out Ryuji's identity so quickly.

"Why are you here!?" Ryuji asked hysterically as he tried desperately, to figure out what to do.

"How should I know!?" Ann exclaimed, looking just as lost and confused as the other blonde as she looked around her surroundings, trying to get a grip on things. "What's going on? Hey, where are we!? Isn't this the school!?"

"I see," said Morgana. "Perhaps she was dragged in because of that app thing. If multiple people can enter with the person who uses it, it stands to reason it'll pull anyone nearby."

"For real?" Ryuji questioned.

"I suggest we hold off our theories for now until we deal with our current situation," I suggested before gesturing to Takamaki, who stared past us, looking at the castle with massive shock filled eyes.

"Wait, so THIS is related to Kamoshida!?" she asked, wanting to know more about where she currently was but Ryuji wasn't having it.

"Anyways, you gotta leave!" Ryuji stated.

"No!" Takamaki refused stubbornly, much to our annoyance.

"The Shadows are going to find us if you make a scene," Morgana spoke up, causing Takamaki to finally notice him and step away from the group in surprise.

"No way! It talked!? Oh my god, it's a monster cat!" she practically screamed, leaving Morgana a little devastated at the name calling.

"Monster?" he repeated weakly, his eyes downcast.

"You better explain what's going on! I won't leave until you do!" Takamaki stated, her expression firm and unyielding as she waited for someone to give her the answers she was looking for.

"Looks like we gotta **** her," Ryuji sighed as he turned to him. "But how're we supposed to do that?"

"Just take her back to where we came in. That's how it worked last time, right?" Morgana suggested, causing us to nod in agreement while Takamaki's eyes widened in horror.

"Oh yeah. Can you lend me a hand?"

"Got it." I said.

"What're you-?" asked Ann.

"We'll explain after everything's over!" Ryuji announced.

"Hey! And just where are you touching!?"

"Whoa, sorry, I didn't mean... That's not important!"

"You guys seriously- Ah!"

We sent Ann back to the real world.

"We better be careful from now on when we use that app." Ryuji spoke up as soon as we returned to the Palace.

I nodded in agreement.

"You should've checked the tools you used! Why do I, the one who was just watching, know more about it than you two!?" Morgana chided us.

"Shuddup! Ah geez, Takamaki found out right when we were starting off. We gotta deal with this fast!" Ryuji spoke up.

"Can't argue with that. The sooner we do this, the less often we'll have to deal with her trying to sneak in on us and try to tag along." I agreed with a nod.

"That girl's name is Ann Takamaki, right?" Morgana questioned curiously, getting nods in confirmation in response, before looking down in contemplation. "Lady Ann."

"Alright, Fur Bucket, you can fantasise about the pretty lady another time. We got work to do right now," I spoke up with a raised eyebrow as soon as I noticed Morgana looking a little lovestruck.

"Oh right, sorry." Morgana apologised before heading towards the drawbridge. "The Shadows have noticed us. You better brace yourselves, got it? There's something I need to talk you you about. Code names."

I stated back at him in confusion.

"Code names?"

"Precisely," Morgana nodded. "What kind of stupid phantom thief would use their real name!? I'm not down for that! And there's no telling what kind of effect yelling our real names will have on the Palace. It's just a precaution."

"Okay, I'll go with Joker." I said.

"It's settled then!" Morgana stated before turning to Ryuji. "Next up is you, Ryuji. You'll be... Let's see..."

"Skull." I suggested.

"Fine, why not Skull then?" Morgana said in an unenthusiastic manner.

I looked at Ryuji curiously as he suddenly grew excited at the name.

"Ooh! That sounds awesome! I'm Skull!" the newly dubbed Skull exclaimed, happy with the choice. "What do we do about this one's code name?"

"Mona" I suggested.

"Well, if Joker thinks it's easier to call me that, then I'll go with it. Alright, from here on out, we're Joker, Skull and Mona. We need to be absolutely thorough about using those code names from now on!" Mona ordered with us nodding in agreement before turning to the castle, ready to steal the desire of the corrupt man that was hidden behind those walls.

"Alright, time to steal this treasure thing!" Skull cheered with a fist in the air.

"Let's get this show on the road," I grinned while tightened my gloves.

"Let's make a dash for it!"

We got inside the castle from the vent like last time.

"Praise be to King Kamoshida! **** to the intruders!"

"What the hell!?" said Ryuji. "Hey, look! Ain't that..."

We took a look through the door.

"Those intruders the other day were quite entertaining," said Kamoshida. "However, I can't allow them to ransack my castle! Strengthen the security! Kill them on sight! I'll reward whoever brings me their heads."

"Praise be to King Kamoshida! **** to the intruders!"

"Wow, we must have really pissed him off if he has all those guards with him. Either that or he's compensating for something," I muttered as Skull and I stared at the other side of the doorway, hidden from the sight of the large amount of guards and Kamoshida himself.

"Hey Mona, can't we just beat the crap outta him and call it a day?" Skull suggested.

"Look at those soldiers, idiot! It'd be suicide and I'm sure you don't want a repeat of last time." Mona argued, causing Skull to back down before continuing. "Besides, don't you want him to confess his sins? There's no point in being him up. We need to steal with materialised desires... The treasure."

"Fine, so where is it?" Skull muttered, scratching the back of his head.

"It has to be somewhere in the depths of this castle. Let's infiltrate further in while he's out here!" Mona suggested, prompting us to leave the doorway and head to the only other door in the room.

I opened the door to see a room occupied by a lone guard, "Yeah, that figures."

"Dammit, there's a guard over here too." Skull grumbled. "Whaddya wanna to do? Should we kick its ass?"

"Hold on. Hmmm... This might be a good opportunity to teach you something." Mona nodded before looking at me. "Alright, Joker! Are you ready to take it down?"

"Let's go." I nodded before out my hiding spot, starling the guard and proceeding to rush it.

I pulled off it's mask and it burst into the familiar sight of black goo that quickly morphed into a familiar looking pixie.

"Shadows are beings born from people's hearts so naturally they can talk too. In other words, you can communicate with them. Get it? If you talk to them when they're cornered, they might offer money or items since they don't want to die," Mona explained with a grin. "In fact, talking to them has a better chance of scoring something great, as opposed to just offing them. Well then, let's do the first step, knock her down and do a hold up!"

I pulled out my pistol and quickly fired at the pixie's wings, causing it to drop to the floor with a hard thud. As I pointed my gun at her, Mona hit the same with his slingshot. The pixie let off an annoyed growl while Mona grinned at a job well done.

"Seriously? YOU guys are the intruders that King Kamoshida was talking about!?" the pixie complained as she stared at us in contempt. "It can't get worse than this. What're you going to do with me!?"

"Give me some money." I said.

"Huh? So you'll let me live if I just give your money?" the pixie asked.

"Well, something along those lines. Now let it be money or items, just cough it up!" Mona stated his terms.

"But this happened so suddenly, I actually don't have anything on me. I usually do thought, you know!?" the pixie admitted sheepishly causing us to stare at the creature blankly before turning our heads slowly towards Mona, who was looking quiet nervous now.

"Wait, what? Oh, this isn't how I was planning this to go," he complained. "Uh, if that's the case, I guess it's time for you to go to hell."

"Arsene's been wanting to sink his claws into something since this morning. Might as well let him have his fun," I shrugged as I summoned Arsene, causing the pixie to quiver in fear at the sight of it.

"Wait!" it begged.

"Sorry but we're in a hurry," Mona said casually, his tone almost sadistic as he spoke, causing the pixie to become even more frightened.

"No, wait up! Can't we work something out? Don't kill me, please! Won't you let me go?" the pixie plead, staring at me desperately in the hopes that I would spare it.

"Fine. If you strip naked and give me a hand job." I said, pulling my dick out.

The pixie stared at her cock and balls, her head tilted.

"I'll do it." she said.

The pixie stripped off her clothes and threw them to the side, showing me her tits. They were smaller than Ann and fake Ann's. Growing back her wing, she flew over and grabbed my member with both hands. She looked up, smiling at me. I was pretty sure most dicks were big by pixie standards. I looked down at her. She slowly stroked my cock, almost lovingly. It didn't take long for me to get hard. She kept stroking it as she looked up at me.

"It's big you you have here." she said. "Your name is...?"

"Call me Joker." I said.

My tip started to ooze and drip a bit of pre-cum. She continued her motions before speeding up. I grunted at the next tug. I looked up and was barely looking at the pixie. My eyes were swept up in the pleasure of her erotic touch.

"I'm going to cum in your face." I said.

The pixie nodded. With her mouth open, she aimed my cock at her tongue right as I ejaculated all over it. Given her small size, her whole face was covered in cum. The semen dripped down the rest of her body.

"Good girl." I said.

"Thank you, sir." she said. "You're the type who's really a pervert. I totally know how you feel. I'm the same way," the pixie stared. "Whoa, I feel different! Something's happening!"

"What the...!? What's going on!?" Mona exclaimed.

"Oh yeah, I remember now! I don't belong to just King Kamoshida. I'm an existence that drifts about in the sea of humanity's souls." the pixie stated while looking at me, intently. "I'm Pixie! From now on, I'll live on inside your heart!"

As soon as those words said, the pixie was engulfed in a blue aura that shifted into a replica of my mask before attaching itself to my mask. I felt a surge of power swell within him.

"What the hell did that Shadow do to me?" I asked slowly, turning to Mona for answers only for the cat to shake his head rapidly.

"What was that just now? What happened!?" Mona exclaimed, looking quite freaked out.

"What the hell was that about? The enemy got sucked into Joker's mask!" Skull exclaimed.

"I don't know but it sure as hell felt weird when it happened." I admitted while shaking my head.

"I have no idea! I wasn't expecting that either."

"Intruders!? Halt!" said another knight.

"Crap, they noticed us!" Skull exclaimed as he watched the guard burst into black goo reform into two of those horses that we dealt with last time.

I sensed a new possibly within me stemming from the previous battle. I tried to summon Arsene but discovered I had summoned the pixie we had just dealt with earlier.

"Pixie?" I said.

"I am your Persona now." she said.

With surprising speed, the pixie flew right over one of the horses with streams of electricity emanating from it's body.

"Fry them, Pixie!" I said.

"You got it, master!"

No sooner after those words were spoken, a burst of electricity was shot out of the pixie and struck the unsuspecting beast, making it cry out in pain before stumbling to the ground.

"Is that the Shadow from earlier!? Don't tell me... Did you take in the Shadow's appearance and powers as a Persona!?" Mona asked in awe.

"Want to join in?" I asked Skull. "I can't have all the fun, you know."

"You bet! There's no way I'm letting you hog all the action!" Skull cheered as he turned to the other horse. "Now it's your turn to get shocked. Captain Kidd, you're up!"

Captain Kidd wasted no time, firing a bolt of lightning right into the other beast, causing it to cry even louder before vanishing in a burst of black smoke.

"Holy... Does that mean you can wield multiple Personas?" Mona asked with wide eyes.

"Hey, Mona, what was that about!?" asked Skull. "What did Joker do?"

Mona spoke as he stared at me curiously. "He sealed the enemy's appearance and powers into his mask and made it his new Persona. Is such a feat even possible? Even I've never seen anyone pull that off!"

"Is it good?" I asked.

"Of course it is! Only one heart exists per person, so normally a person can only have one Persona!" Mona stated with pride. "Incredible! That ability will give us a huge advantage in battle! Alright, try to do that even more if the opportunity arises! You better help out too, Skull!"

"Hell yeah!" said Skull. "We'll hold every last one of 'em up!"

Mona laughed, "I like you even more now! I really do have something special after all!"

"Oooh, it's another hazy looking door! This is that thing! What's it called?"

"A safe room. We can discuss our strategy inside. There are a lot of places even I don't know about in here."
