The Wicked Truth [Kevin's Awakening]

Friday, the only weekday where students would stay late at night for their own entertainment. As for Kevin, it was a good night to visit his favorite coffee shop to get some coffee. Cappucino without sugar, he likes how bitter it is just like the bitter truth about the society, corrupted and tainted. He spent his time at the cafe looking at the latest news around Endymion through his laptop. The headlines were never new and gone stagnant for him. It was always the same thing, corrupted politicians and crimes. The self-proclaimed journalist wondered if there is some kind of power to stop this, where would he get it? He just laughed at the thought, ever since he was thirteen he stopped believing at superpowers. But damn, he really wished that those superpowers were true right now. "Excuse me, Sir. But, it's already closing time" A waittress tapped him on the back and told him that the coffee shop is already closing. Kevin looked at his watch, it's almost midnight and he didn't even notice. Well, that's what he gets for overusing the shop's free internet. He was the only customer left and the other staffs are cleaning the tables and putting the chairs on the top of it. "I'm sorry, thank you for your service." He bowed before leaving the coffee shop.

"Damn, my dad is gonna give my ass a whoopin when I get home." Kevin sighed, accepting his consequences for getting home late at night. But, there's still might be some hope left to save himself from his dad's sermons if he would get home as fast as he can. The alleys would be a good faster route if he wants to get home fast. His father warned him how dangerous the alleys are in the night. It's where criminals wait for prey unfortunate enough to wander in there. But, warnings be damned if he runs fast no one would get the opportunity to mug him. And so, the reckless teenager wandered into the dark alley...

Unfortunately, his father would not be the only thing beating him this night. As he turned into the dark alley, there'd be a feeling of being watched. Not particularly from one direction, but perhaps shifting around him. As if darting around. However, as it seemed to come to a stop in-front of him, a strange feeling would start to take hold. And after a moment, what he would be originally unable to see would become clear.

You may now post your awakening and distribute your stat points, if you have not already.

Kevin ran as fast as he can. Not for long, he felt a tingling sensation on his whole body like as if someone is watching him. The boy now sprinted as he doesn't want to encounter whatever this is. Unfortunately for him, he's not a runner nor someone athletic to run a very far distance. It didn't take long for him to be tired and reaching for his breath. He had to take a breather, he slumped himself in a wall and rested for a while. Until... a mysterious voice talked. As he turned around to see who was talking. It was all clear, a man holding a saw and a bag filled with heads. "W-who are you!? What do you want?!" He asked and took some steps backwards but, unable to run since he was still tired and reaching for his breath. Something about this man is not human at all and whatever that is, it's saying danger.

Filled with fear and defenseless, is this the end for him? After all, this is the consequence he gets for disobeying his father. Kevin closed his eyes and embraced his fate. "Call me, my child. And I shall lead you to the light." Kevin opened his eyes because of the voice that talked. He looked around for the voice but, he realized that the voice was inside of his head and noticed that there were ghostly blue shackles on his wrists. "What's this?" he tried to let himself free of the shackles. First budge, it didn't break. Of course, shackles were supposed to be very durable but, with a little hope, he might be able to break it. "I REFUSE TO DIE ON THE HANDS OF THE LIKES OF YOU!." Second budge, cracks were starting to form around the shackles. Just a little more. "Per... so... na!." A word that he just mysterious uttered from his mouth and the shackles broke free on the third budge. Enveloping him in a blue mist and above him appeared, a golden angel named, Raphael. "I art thou... Thou art I... I am the Archangel, Raphael. We shall smite those who oppose the Lord and lead everyone to the light!"

...but before any blows could begin to be dealt by either side, a figure dropped from the rooftops. A masked man.

Beautiful Bandit will gain a level of Tension each turn, the levels are 15%>25%>50%>75%>100%. Using his skills will not cost HP or SP, but instead cost Tension level, however he can use dexterity attacks without cost. He does not have health, and will simply be unable to continue after taking three attacks.

"Who are you?" He asked the man who dropped from the rooftop. Nevertheless, Kevin felt more safe as he has an ally with him. He can't lose. Pointing at the Rastaman, he muttered "Raphael, smite him." The Persona would then float above Kevin and it's giant halo would hover to the monster and strike a lightning on it.

Kevin-322 EXP

With the dirty deed done, the Bandit brushed himself off, and turned to look at Kevin. "Well...all things considered, you handle yourself well. You have much to learn still, however. If you wish to further your career, I recommend visiting the Platinum Playhouse in the Backlight. Trust me, you won't be disappointed. Without even waiting for a response, Bandit left. His work here was done. It rested solely on Kevin if he took the Masked Man up on his offer.
