A/n: I know I know, already? What about the other stories? I just wanted to get this out there before I peace out and do some other projects.

This was not how I wanted my summer vacation to start!
Cut the chatter! Joker, you've got one coming up!
Winds began to pick up as a spotlight shone on the Phantom Thief leader. He dove left just as a hailstorm of bullets touched the spot where he stood, then jumped off his perch. The helicopter-like form of the Shadow chased him, and continued the spray of bullets.
His heel touched the side of the building as he began to slide to his descent.
"Could use some help here." Joker muttered.
"Where would you be without me?"
A second figure had jumped off the building and collided with the Shadow. It panicked, the lights it had tore off from Joker and onto the second figure. The wind of the propeller making his cloak flutter.
"Watch the hat." He said, securing it with his hand before tearing off the Shadow's Mask.
The Shadow crashed in a ball of fire, and the two Phantom Thieves landed side by side.
"A little sloppy there, Ace." Joker said.
"Sloppy?" Ace scoffed. "I'm the one who's been seeing active combat, Joker." He pulled out his sword. His eyes narrowing as the sight of a horde of Shadows began to encroach on them. "We've got company."
"Plan worked."
"It only works if we live through it." The mask on Ace's face burst into blue flame.
"You're so negative." Joker's mask caught flame, then vanished revealing the face of Akira Kurusu.
"And you're reckless." Said the revealed face of (Y/n) Kirijo. He rolled his neck. "But I guess we balance each other out."
"Damn right we do."
From behind the pair, two winged figures materialized from the fire. Arsene and Raguel were ready to fight, but (Y/n) seemed to have had a better idea.
"I kinda don't wanna go through all these guys." He said, holding out his hand. "Wanna just make them go boom? I mean we do just gotta get their attention."
"Yeah, I can get behind that." Joker grabbed ahold of (Y/n)'s hand, and both males burst into blue flame.
"Showtime!"

Hey, are you even listening?
(Y/n) blinked, his eyes focusing on the room he was in. "A musty old attic..."
"Hey, I don't go around insulting where you sleep." Akira smirked.
"O-Oh, sorry." (Y/n) shook his head. "That kinda just came out."
