“You think we’d accept this?” Akechi screams at Dr Maruki.

He stands on the floor of the Palace, clearly fuming with anger. He stands beside you. Since you and Akechi found this palace and realized you were in an alternate reality, you teamed up, and stormed the palace.

His outfit consists of a body-covering, black and dark blue striped outfit. In this form, he has several black studded belts strapped around his legs and arms, a short black cape and clawed gauntlets. He also wears a dark enclosed knight helmet, with a black mask tinted red, resembling a sharp beak.

“I don’t want to force this reality onto you. I want you to choice this freely. Please think about your choice more carefully,” Dr Maruki says, looking down from at them, from a few feet away.

Dr Maruki has somehow created a ‘perfect’ reality. The phantom thieves are all gone, Futaba’s mother came back, and everyone is…happy…if you could even use that word.

Akechi and Joker are completely surrounded by guards.

“I will NEVER accept this fake artificial reality!” Akechi says, clenching his fists, pointing at Maruki.

“…well…. what do you say… Joker?” Maruki asks, now looking at you. “Do you want this perfect reality I’ve made for you?”
