Paradox /ˈperəˌdäks/ a situation, person, or thing that combines contradictory features or qualities.

*******

 The world wasn't supposed like it was meant to be... it was heading toward darkness and "ruin" could no longer be avoided, so a Trickster needed to rise to save the planet from the abyss of murkiness. The country was shrouded with mysterious incidents that sent terror to its people.

Ren Amamiya, a prisoner of fate, found himself in a once-in-a-lifetime case after moving from his hometown to Tokyo after being found guilty for trying to save a person in need. Condemned for a crime he didn't commit, thrown behind bars, hurt by his own parents, expelled from his school, bullied by his classmates, and looked at as scum by the eyes of society.

In a whim of fate, he met Emiko Hayashi; a girl with an untold secret that was locked away within the depths of her soul. Nagisa Konno; a shy and timid boy who vowed to protect his little sister from the ugliness of the world by any price he had to pay. Kasumi Yoshizawa; the mysterious and beautiful rhythmic gymnast who moved to Shujin under a scholarship, dreaming to reach the world championship to honor her late twin.

In his new home, Ren founded the Phantom Thieves of Hearts, a group of youthful and passionate vigilantes who took the task of changing society and give courage to the weak. Living an ordinary high school life in Tokyo by day, the group maneuvered the metropolitan city by night, guiding the world away from ruin. However, through his journey of rehabilitation, Ren faced the most difficult choice... shall he refuse the reality imposed by him, he shall sacrifice the happiness of others.

Even if it meant living in a beautiful lie?

The demon breathed heavily as he struggled to keep himself steady. "How? . . . When?" "Hmpf," Miyuki only smirked at his way.

Miyuki's life changed significantly after losing the one who was most precious to her. On top of that heartache, she now has to deal with her troublesome twin brother, Yusuke, and keep their chaotic family together in her best efforts at the age of fourteen. But then her life takes an unexpected turn when Yusuke gets hit by a car and then comes back as the new Spirit Detective. With new challenges and enemies along the way, Miyuki must stay strong and embark on adventures to keep her loved ones safe. Although, the Urameshi girl is in for a surprise of a lifetime as this new start might just reignite the dying flame within her and come back as the whole damn fire. . . ******* Yu Yu Hakusho: Ghost Files - Season 1: Spirit Detective Saga The story that many knows, but with twists and Original Characters into it's mix, one of them being the Sass Queen herself, Miyuki Urameshi, Yusuke's twin sister. ******* Disclaimer: I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho or the show's characters, only my OCs and my friends' OCs.

My Key Item (Joker X Futaba) Persona 5 Royal by Rydernort
26 parts Complete Mature
After months of getting to know and love Futaba Sakura, knowing that she is the one he wants to spend the rest of his life with, it's all ripped away by one man. Takuto Maruki has decided that people cannot be allowed to think for themselves, and that they should never have to feel pain, well, unless you interfere with his plan. After being thoroughly trounced by the Phantom Thieves, Maruki makes one last ditch attempt to break the theives, and kills Futaba. In his blind rage, Akira Kurusu, otherwise known as Joker takes matters into his own hands, and stops the mad God in his tracks. Time reverts to its original self, with Akechi dead and gone and Maruki and Futaba alive and well, and Akira in Juvinile Detention. After being freed from prison, he finds out that something went wrong when the timeline was restored. Futaba knows him not as her lover, but merely as his friend. Now Akira must find a way to cope with this new life in Hometown, while trying to juggle the return of the Metaverse, and Futaba tries to find her way through the complex feelings she has for Joker, but can't quite explain, as well as the dreams that almost feel like memories. Will she push through and recover her memories and her love? Or will she and Akira both fade into the Mementos of what they have lost. I took a couple liberties with events and the Timeline, but overall, I stayed fairly close to the original game's story. This is a passion project that sprung to mind while driving, and now I'm hyperfixated... Welp, time to churn out a book. ENJOY READING IT!!

Vengeance Thief by Nata_KARU

The Cognition of individuals and society, with those reflecting on how they perceive the world leads to places called Palaces. A Palace is a manifestation of "distortion", strong negative or corrupt thoughts that warp the perceptions of people into a hazard for themselves and others. As such, some people can view things how they want to depending on their cognition. One person known as Suguru Kamoshida, is a teacher at Shujin Academy who views the school as his own personal kingdom. He is a lustful, vain, cruel, and utterly selfish bully who abuses his female students emotionally, physically, and sexually, even going as far as pursuing a toxic relationship with ones that he had hooked an eye on. As for the male students, he subjects them to an utterly ruthless training regimen that many of them compare to torture, and will even use as punishment if his team loses a game. As such, he is an utterly cruel and diabolical person until a group stops him known as the Phantom Thieves of Heart. Sick of the deception, hypocrisy, and corruption around them, the Phantom Thieves are devoted to "stealing" the corrupt hearts of evil adults in order to change and reform society for the better. After taking down Kamoshida, their population slowly grew more taking down one target after the next. Before long they were known as a famous group working outside of the law. The Personas they use are formed by individuals who find themselves in the Metaverse and are dealing with feelings of frustration of being wronged or taken advantage of. Each Persona is different for each member of the Phantom Thieves each passing unique and special powers. Things seem to be going well for them until a new issue occurs as it leads to a new member joining them known as the Vengenceful Thief. Who is this and what kind of Persona does he or she have?

Shapeshifter - Persona 5 by ILiveOffOfFanfics

Akuryo; It might as well have been a name to him. Well, now it was, anyway. All his life, Ren has known one simple fact: As a shapeshifter, he would never be welcome in the world, never seen as anything more than vermin at best, and hellspawn at worst. But when his attempt to do the right thing lands him in more trouble than he realized, he decides that what seemed like a fatal mistake might be his last chance to leave everything behind. To start over. Simple rules are set: Trust no one, stay alone, and stay alive. Then, once the year is over, live a quiet life as a normal human. But as friendships form left and right, fears demand to be faced, and the world unravels at its seams, there's only one thing that's clear: Ren thought he knew by now what fate had up its sleeve, but it seems it's decided instead that it won't be that simple. === A retelling of P5R featuring a race of mystical humans with the power to shapeshift into any one animal. Our trickster, of course, is one of them. Currently on: Kamoshida's Palace === #11 in #akirakurusu!

"You know. . . Despite our differences, we both have the same flame inside of us. " I told him with honesty as I turned away, looking up at the beautiful night sky that was filled with its diamonds like stars while the moon was shining brightly on us both. "I had never felt this way toward anyone before. . . In fact, I am also weirded out by this. . . love concept. . . a little bit puzzled at times but. . . " I trailed down as I bury my face into my knees, not knowing what to say next to convince this bastard that I in fact mean what I say. Am I really getting myself into this emotional mess? Am I turning into Kuwabara, the Love Sick puppy who runs after Yukina. . . ? 'Heh, I am such a fool. . .' I couldn't help but scold myself.
