The Leader of the Phantom Thieves of Heart
Amamiya Rei
Framed for a crime she never commited, Rei fashioned a disguise from a pair of ordinary glasses and tried to live her life under the radar.The story is the same as it ever was for the leader of the Phantom Thieves of Heart, just with some minor changes.
During her time at Shujin, she had drawn the attention of Kamoshida, much like any other female student would have. However, she refused his advances, choosing instead to hang out with the delinquent that would take the code name Skull, and her fellow classmate (and unwilling recipient of Kamoshida's attentions) Panther.
Afterwards, during the Kaneshiro Incident, she and the other female Phantom Thieves found themselves in the same boat as the associate that would be called Queen... Their bodies would be on the line if Queen never paid back the debt or got the blackmail photos of the crew in his club deleted. Thanfully, the change of heart prevented that outcome from happening.
Masayoshi Shido... The source of all her grief, the person that accused her of an imaginary assault on his person all because she wouldn't be one of his conquests. Finding out that he was indirectly or directly involved with every Palace that the crew did a job on, combined with the false charges, almost made her want to break the One Rule the Thieves had... But she stayed her hand. How was the bastard going to clear her name if he was victim of a Mental Shutdown.
Taking down the False Idol, Yaldabaoth proved to be their biggest challenge... And one that gave her a glimpse into an alternate version of reality, with a different Phantom Thief crew, but that's a tale for a different time.
After taking down Yaldabaoth, she had one final Palace to bring down... That of the one medical professional she trusted who had some how manipulated reality in a warped version of itself where every was at their happiest and wanted for nothing. She would have fell for its trappings, if not for Crow and Violet's help in fighting back and awakening the Phantom Thieves from their delusions... At the cost of waking up the next day in Juvie.
After getting her name cleared, Rei went on to college to study law, graduating with Bachelors Degree in Criminal Justice, all while moonlighting as a Phantom Thief in reality. She stole only from those who's beliefs were drastically altered, taking only that which could be fenced quickly or was the root cause of their twisted desires.Eventually, she moved back into Tokyo, looking to meet up with the old crew on the off chance she could find them again...
