It was a normal day like any other day our story begins in the 1950s after the war has ended a few people were back to their normal lives of course the social hierarchy might have changed a bit not to mention some...unexplainable things but now here we are, our main protagonist for now is Ms. Lady Illusion a famous yet feared psychiatrist who's also known for her devilish charms she worked for the army and inherited millions, after working in Britain for quite a few years she was stationed in a country called Perino, it wasn't very well known for a good reason I suppose...since many things are there that most of the social order would never accept.
"Ugh do I have to go by a train in this heat you know I could portal my way through without this headache" a woman said who wore a tight looking vintage grey suit with white gloves and red lipstick she had brunette hair tanned skin brown beautiful eyes that'd make any man get down on their knees
"It's only for the ride there you can take it off when you reach your hotel room" a pale tall man who wore a dashingly grey looking suit and a black hat to match his tie was fixing the woman's buttoned up blazer, " You're not called the great lady illusion for nothing" he snarked then pulling away from her putting his hand in his pocket and giving her the train ticket.
she rolled her eyes in annoyance and took the ticket from his hand harshly, "Don't call me that hard being unrecognizable when the whole world wants to bow to your every whim" she sighed and mumbled under her breath putting the ticket in between her chest " stupid social hierarchy" grumbled at the end.
the man sighed n looked down at her with a normal dead expression "just promise me you won't cause trouble like last time alright?" the man pleaded while lady illusion got on the train and glanced back at him with a smirk "no promises~" then blew him a kiss as the train started to move and she waved a lil for goodbye.
the man scratched his head irritatingly with a flushed face a bit cussing under his breath a little "Bloody hell" he sighed, and his thoughts were interrupted by a phone call, "Yes Adrian speaking...yes just sent her off... of course sir I'm sure this'll be an easy job to take care of.." the call ends.
Lady illusion gets greeted by many of the servants who carry her luggage and escort her to the best seat in the train of course it's only seated by the highest of classes, even though she loathed being near them she hated their cocky snotty attitude and bored at their pointless conversations that were never ending so she was good at pretending to care, a few hours has gone by since the train left and Lady illusion was getting a bit restless and irritated by the loud chit chattery of the other guests so she got up and went where no one really ever goes to...the back of the train she knew that the servants would escort her back and use the old saying "oh but this isn't what a high class such as yourself should be in" talk so she made herself invincible and walked right through like nothing even happened and that she was only going back to her cabin or sleeper room as their supposedly called ? strange I'd say.
"finally some peace and qui-" she cut herself off when she saw a few rugged men looting off of the luggage from the back of the train as they paused and stared at lady illusion in disbelief, "...............I told you they would have checked!" one of the men shouted, " Alright you know the drill", a man wearing a beret white shirt that pulled up his sleeves to his shoulders and overalls stood up pulling down his hat "sorry Ms. about our impolite manners but we best be heading off soon".
Lady illusion raised a brow and glanced up and down at the man then glanced at the others who were quickly trying to loot the rest then sighed in irritation used her telekinesis slamming the man to the wall and down making him drop the loot his "Joey!" one of the men shouted and quickly ran to his need, "Rev get the door NOW" a tall man quickly and swiftly grabbed a wrench smacking hard on the doors lock so it'd bust open.
Lady illusion getting irritated by the second stopping them all in their track with one move and walking towards the man with a beret forcing em to be on his knees looking downwards at em " didn't your mother ever tell you that its rude to steal other people's belongings?" the other men who were choking and gripping at themselves coughing "R-Ravon d-don't"
The person named Ravon looked up at lady illusion then grinned and tilted his head " well mam let's just say when you're in desperate need" his hand started to glow making the door slide open and all of the luggage and cargo start to fly out of the train " anything quite possible" he winked and shouted "NOW", the tall man named Rev his eyes shined as he grabbed the other two from Lady illusions grip, she was caught off guard that mere simpleton was using magical powers against her and of course she was also distraught about the fallen luggage which was also hers sadly and did magic to quickly stop it she was limited on how much power she could use on others and herself for reasons later on in the story
The boys jumped out of the moving train one by one floating safely and laughing, "Thanks for the hand Ms.!" the man called Ravon laughed as he told the rest of his goons to quickly get whatever they had left and rush out of sight.
Lady illusion gritted her teeth then crossed her arms displeased but also impressed "your only lucky that I'm too tired to care enough and my luggage was saved" she snapped her fingers fixing some of the mess and went back to her cabin alerting the guards of what happened.
"My god I told you we were gonna get fucking caught!" joey said as all 4 of them were running back to their town, "caught?! we almost fricking died ! that woman was horrifyingly scary!" one of the men panted and running through the crowd. "Ah c'mon Franky it was same as any old job we've done just a lil unexpected mishap heh" Ravon said running faster holding the bag of loot, "Now c'mon! we gotta get back to the hideout before she starts calling the cops!" he laughed and ran as fast as possible.
The man was named Ravon he was just your average kind of guy who works a few jobs to pay off his debt with his so called band of misfits Rivera, Joey, Franky all of them are close work friends who end up doing "honest work" from time to time to help out the village from being swarmed in debt, all of them have their reasons for doing what they do quite interesting I'd say so myself.
They've finally made it to their town and went down to the slums is where they lived quickly heading into their hide out to drop all the loot they've got, when joey slammed his hand on the table " Okay this is the last time ! I'm doing this kind of shit with you guys alright? I got my family here! that'll freak the fuck out if they knew what the hell I've been doing!". Franky threw a wet towel for joey and sighed rubbing his neck " Seriously boss at this rate we'll be hanged before we could even say the words I was Innocent". Ravon however was checking on the loot and giving it all to Michael he was the accountant of the group counting how much each thing would cost and how much it'd pay off. "yeah guys I know I work as an accountant and all, but my job could be at risk too if I keep hanging out with you guys" he counted the numbers and checking everything.
Ravon sighed got up and looked at his crew "c'mon guys were this close to saving our town from being bulldozed and turned into a rich shit down full of snot nosed privileged racist pricks....we promised wed be in this together".
Franky replies " not if being together means being in jail for the next 10 years of our lives or worse...you used magic in front of her" he groaned and rubbed his face. Michael coughed and spat out his drink " YOU USED MAGIC IN FRONT OF THE GUARDS?". Joey chimes in " oh not guards no a FUCKing high class citizen probably a doctor or lawyer I don't fucking know". Ravon tries to calm down the situation, "Guys! Guys! C'mon it's not so badddd she probably doesn't even remember our faces plus it's not like she's heading for our town right rev?" he looked at the tall man who was crossing his arms leaning on the wall carving wood and just nodded. "See? even rev agrees!"
Michael pulls back his hair and starts pacing around the room slightly panicking, "Oh man this is bad this is really, really bad! we could get killed or worse! oh god I gotta call my mom or som-" he gets cut off by Ravon who's holding his shoulders and tells him to calm down and breath, "I promise I'll keep everyone safe just like I promised...and if anyone will end up taking the blame it'll be me alright?". it silences everyone in the room and Michael starts to calm down a bit, "I hope your right boss...".
Lady illusion was finally at her hotel staying at the hometown for riches of Perino or so everyone likes to call it only the highest of class live off there and buy stuff to fend off their needs and entertainment anyone who's lower than that is just a worker or a servant to them picking up their scraps, she didn't pay too much mind to it since she was sent here to finish the task that she was given she already spoke to the authorities for those raiders that took off with their "treasures" so to speak.
Lady illusion was staying at their most famous fancy schmancy hotel with grade A service and luxury food from all around the globe there's even the rare menu filled with exquisite taste of the finest creatures around...its messed up but none of these high grade assholes care you know?, but she wasn't in the mood for any fancy dining experience nor did she want to stay cooped up in her room all day till dinner time when she meets the senator along with the president of the town, so she decides to toddle off explore the town a bit see what's so strange about it in the first place, as she was walking around she spotted a bakery and our dear ol psychiatrist has a sweet tooth for sweet things.
"Mmm that smells delicious" she walked into the store seeing all of the baked goods a humble man who is the owner of the shop greeted her kindly with a big smile " Welcome! to Gustavos fine bakery establishment how can I help you today madam!", Lady illusion glanced at everything and spoke " I'd like a mixed berry tart and a chocolate pie if you could", The owner replied " Why of course! only the finest for your arrival Ms. Illusion we are so grateful to have you where in our town"
Lady illusion glanced at the owner curious, "oh so you know of me already I guess news really does spread like wildfire", the man chuckled at her comment " I'll be right back with your order Lady illusion", she glanced at em and opened a fan to cool herself off from this summer heat, "oh please no need to be so formal just call me April for now", she added a soft smile that could make any man's heart melt.
When the owner went to the back for a few moments another customer arrived...who wore a beret and overalls with his sleeves curled up to his shoulders..., she didn't really care to notice as much but he smelled like the sun..like he'd been running for quite a while curious she thought.
The owner came back with her order's and glanced at the man he huffed had his hands on his hips and furrowed his brows, "Blackwing! I told you I cannot sell to you my breads! how many times do I have to kick you out!", The man glanced up lifted his beret a bit holding a few coins in his hand then put them on the glass counter leaned in and looked at the owner, "Gustavo c'mon ya know me by now? I told you I got the money for it and all I want is a bit of bread for the family now is that so bad? you're not gonna leave a man to starve to death with his family now would ya?", Gustavo raised his hands and shouted "BAH", Blackwing replied " Aw cmonnnn Gustavo you really gonna deny me in front of a pretty lady right here? no offense ma'am sorry for the intrusion" he glanced at her and tipped his hat, " Not a problem Mr. Blackwing right?" she glanced at him and immediately recognized it was the man from the train but she didn't give off any reaction or indication that she knew it was him.
Of course Ravon didn't pay much attention and went back to argue with Gustavo on pleading to give em any bread he had even a stale one he didn't mind, "For the last time Blackwing I cannot sell you any of my products now get out before you scare my customers away", he gave her orders and she paid for it glancing at the thief beside her she looked at the owner again and spoke, " Oh it's alright it won't be a problem if I pay for it right?", Ravon turned his head raised a brow albeit shocked at what she just suggested even the owner was taken aback but before he could reply Ravon spoke before him, "Ah sorry ma'am that's mighty generous of ya but no need I already got the money to pay for it and I'd rather not have anything to owe you back", she looked at him up and down still fanning her face taking out her money paying for her desserts, "Then it won't be a problem for you to pay me back...call it a small favor to one another".
Ravon still taken a back while the owner was stammering a lil not knowing if he should let this happen, "Ma'am I do appreciate the hospitality but I really can't take this", he scratched the back of his head averting his eyes to anywhere else, "nonsense besides its already been paid for", she snapped her fingers having bread in her hands holding her bag of goodies and giving it to Ravon who just stood there like a nOnce, "Thank you for the treats~" and she walked out of the store before anyone could even stop her.
"You see! have you no shame letting a woman pay for your meals bAh what are they gonna think now!", Ravon wasn't even listening to Gustavos rants he held the bread in his hand put back on his beret and said, "yeah, yeah sure...ill see ya around Gustavo", he walked out of the store quick trying to follow where she went but she disappeared he clicked his tongue in annoyance and went back to the slums with the bread he got in his hands.
Ravon went back to the slums it's what everyone called it, bunch of old raggedy people with broken down houses picking up from everyone dirt and scraps, he was walking along the same path he always does when a couple of goons cornered around em, "Aye how ya doin Blackwing mighty fancy bread ya got there huh?", Ravon sighed bit irritated and put his hands in his pockets hiding the bread inside it as well, " what do you want Ralph" , he rolled his eyes glancing at em as Ralphs goons were getting a lil closer holding some metal pipes and wooden bats, "Oh you know what I'm here for Blackwing c'mon..... where's the money ?" he glared down at Ravon who was staring right back at him not budging or being frightened, "I don't know what you'r ta-" WAM he gets hit in the back with a metal pipe and groans on the ground in pain as Ralph gripped his hair pulling him up to face him, "Wrong answeeerrrrrr~ Blackwinggggg~".
They started to beat him up mercilessly on the ground as Ravon groaned wailed in pain, "Next up don't try to act all high and mighty bullshit, alright? your nothing but a fucking loser", he spat beside him which triggered Ravon made him grip his leg pull him down to the ground with him and punch the living shit out of him with any strength he had left before his goons grabbed pulled him back and punched his gut leaving em on the ground again, "Heh...freak just get the cash and let's get the fuck out of here I'm tired of seeing his pathetic fucking face" he wiped off the blood on his lips, his goons took out whatever was left in his pockets walked off.
"Fucking dicks", he spat out blood and wiped off his cheek some of the blood from his bruises and groaned, "Shit Ravens gonna kill me for this", he sighed as he got off the ground groaning in pain and walked off home.
