The Detective Princess (Yusuke x reader x Akechi)

Chapter 13

"Four weak ones? What laughable trash..." I couldn't help but scoff at Akechi as we surrounded the shadows. I stood back and watched Akechi run to them with his weapon drawn out.

My mind couldn't help but wonder what the others were doing. I joined the Phantom Thieves but I've done nothing to help them.

Fuck... This is so bland.

Every time, we do the same thing.

Infiltrate the palace.

Kill shadows.

And find our target.

Akechi doesn't seem to mind. After all, it was all to get revenge on Shido. I don't really know what I get out of it. It's something Akechi wants.

And thinking about it now, I really don't know what I want. What will I do if Shido is taken down?

I'm sure the Phantom Thieves will continue their work. When Akechi kills Shido, I know he's going frame them.

The public believes that the Phantom Thieves are the only ones able to change hearts.

A death like Shido with a calling card is enough to put an end to their support and freedom.

Any murder is to be punished by the higher power in the real world.

"Y/N, there's a group coming our way. Finish them off while I put an end to our target," I felt his hand on my shoulder. It felt weird since his hands were the shape of claws due to his gloves. He cut my chin with his helmet one time trying to kiss me last time.

It was rare for him to be affectionate in Mementos. It was always about ruining Shido.

It would be a miracle for him to say something sweet.

"Achyls, tear them to shreds..." I snapped my fingers as the shadows finally appeared. The persona appeared and attacked like a savage animal desperate for food.

It's funny.

It's funny how Akechi and I listen to someone like Shido. We have such incredible power that we can use for ourselves, but we rather stay put and wait for the commands of a corrupt man who only thinks of himself...

Why do I have to be the one who always gets to pay? Akechi somehow gains better rewards for his duties.

All I get is a pat on the back and shoo'ed away like a bug.

Why?

Why is it always me?

Anything Akechi can do, I can do better. I know it. Ever since we came together as partners, I've always been the one to make the decisions. Akechi is just the voice while I am the mind, silent but taking action...

"Ngh!"

I stumbled back from shock and bumped into the wall. The mirror behind me broke on impact, scattering its shards all round me.

My legs soon fell numb, causing me to fall on my knees. Shards of glass dug into my skin but the pain wasn't as bad as in my head.

I took the pills last night. Why is this happening?

I bit my lip from crying in pain and tried to stand up. But my mind soon realized how futile it was trying to stand up.

A sharp pain tore through my mind as I tried to withstand it. It felt like my entire body was being set on fire with every movement causing my muscles and bones to ache.

Shit!

You're letting yourself get used as a toy... All I'm trying to do it set you free. You go through so much for a couple of measly words and no benefit.
