BANNG!

Thanatos then appeared, drew out his sword, and charged straight for Shadow Shy and just like all the other times a slice through the throat and Shadow Shy was transforming back to her original form.

"D-damn it! I was so close!" Shadow Shy said weakly

"O-oh my!" Fluttershy said

"Whew." You said, "That was a close one!"

"Easy for you to say!" Rarity said holding her side

"Fluttershy. You know what to do now." You said

"R-right. I-I-I think." Fluttershy said going over to Shadow Shy

"Grrr. Ngh!" Shadow shy still grunted in pain

"First off, [REDACTED] I'm sorry for the way I acted to you after we discovered about Rainbow's demise. I-I acted out of rage over the fact that Rainbow was dead and I couldn't do anything about it. I just wanted to vent my anger on someone and I used you. Someone who didn't even know about me and Rainbow's friendship."

"Hey accidents happen." You said

"And second of all, you." Fluttershy said to Shadow Shy, "You're right. I do like inflicting pain. All those years ago when I was going to Cloudsdale Middle School I inflicted pain upon those who made fun of my friendship with Rainbow. Calling us things like lesbians, CMS's gayest couple, I HATED IT! So I inflicted as much pain as I could to anyone who dared to make fun of our friendship again! Little did I know I also caused pain upon myself as well. I realized that what I was doing was very wrong and me and Rainbow Dash ended up switching roles. I became the shy one instead of her, and she became the tomboyish one instead of me. And now look where it's gotten me. I can honestly say that with all the friends I've made through our role switch if Rainbow was here to see this she would probably agree with me in saying that in the end it was all totally worth it."

Fluttershy then wiped a tear from her eye.

"I know who you are now. And you're me." Fluttershy said

Shadow Shy nodded before turning into a blue light and then into a familiar Persona, Lucia, the initial Persona of the Persona 3 character Fuuka Yamagishi.

Lucia then turned into light before turning into an Evoker that made it's way onto a new Evoker strap around Fluttershy's left leg.

"I-I have a persona?!" Fluttershy said seeing the Evoker make its way to it's new home

"Yeah." You said, "But yours isn't a fighter. You've got back up abilities, that means you'll be able to tell us the weaknesses of a shadow."

"Will I be safe?" Fluttershy asked

"If the Lucia you have now is anything like the Persona 3 Movies version of her then yeah, you'll be safe from anything." You explained

"Oh that's good, I'm not really that much of a fighter anyways unless I get mad if you remember." Fluttershy said

"Indeed I do." You groaned

With Fluttershy getting a new Persona you feel like the strength of the team has grown now that you have someone with Fuuka's Persona.

"I-I was useless."

You and the girls then looked at Principal Celestia who looked to be in doubt.

[SCORE] Persona 4 - Border of Insanity ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfpgVT-naD0 )

"I feel so useless." Celestia said, "This is just like with Luna. I felt so useless-no. I was useless. I couldn't stop her. Then she turned into that beast. This is no different. I can't do anything without messing it up."

"Indeed you can't."

You and the girls and Celestia then all looked in shock to see another Celestia.

"The truth is, you let all those events in the past happen because you knew there was nothing you could do to stop it from happening."

"Wh-what?" Celestia said

"Indeed. The truth of the matter is, all you can do is let everyone down. So many years of doubt can really do that to someone."

"E-excuse me?!"

"Isn't it obvious Sol? You let your doubt that you can save everyone get the better of you. you really are like that of a 1,000 year old woman."

"I don't go by that damn name anymore!!!"

"Then why to this day does your sister call you that? Or should I say Nightmare Moon?"

"Don't you DARE call Luna that damn name!!! WE'VE LEFT OUR PAST BEHIND DAMN IT!!! JUST WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?!"

"Why the truth is obvious. I'm you, and you are me. Now before you go saying, 'you're not me' or what ever. I will give you one more piece of truth. You and your little friends are going to die here. Just like that gay lesbian pride parade float you call Rainbow Dash over there."

"SHUT YOUR TRAP!" Celestia shouted, "YOU'RE NOT ME!! YOUR NOT FUCKING ME!!!"

"Son of a bitch! Another fight?! Damn this is looking like Rise's shadow fight into Teddie's shadow fight all over again!" You said

"I'd hate to say this [REDACTED] but you and Fluttershy are gonna have to fight it alone this time!" Rarity said

"We're too weak from the last fight to fight." Sunset added

"WHAT?! Why is it just me?! What purpose would upstaging all of you do?! If this was a game that would be the path to take for a Marty Stu anti-climatic, 'Gary Stu main hero saves the day, gets all the credit, and becomes the husband to one of the main cast members for no reason other than to shoe horn in a sex scene' ending!" You shouted

BANNG!

You looked to see Fluttershy already summoned Lucia and through Lucia's glass....womb(?), you were able to see Fluttershy having a sort of confident look. However when you looked back at Shadow Celestia she had already transformed. Now instead of Principal Celestia's usual clothing Shadow Celestia wore a long white dress/gown with a golden crown on her head, golden arm braces, and golden high heels. and to complete the weird fest on both her left and right were human like shadows with wings wearing golden armor and had spears.

"I am a shadow. The true self." Shadow Celestia said

"OOH THAT AIN'T FAIR!" You shouted as your pupils dialated and your eyes went wide in fear

"Kill him!" Shadow Celestia ordered

"AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" You yelled in terror as you ran up the stairs only to get cut off by one of the guards, "OH FUCK!!!"

You then lost your balance and began rolling back down the stairs back onto the first floor. When you landed you found yourself being helped back up by Principal Celestia.

[SCORE] Breaking Benjamin - Failure ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqt0L0l4OA4 )

"Do something!" Celestia said

"I-I don't know what to do!" You said before looking at the others who were sitting or treating injuries by the entrance, "Everyone else is either injured or too tired to continue fighting! I'm all alone this time!"

"Use a Persona or something!" Celestia said

"That'd take too much time and in case you haven't noticed we're surrounded!" You said, "GRRR! I'm getting sick and tired of this 3 on 1 SHIT!!! FIRST WITH THE FOOL AND MAGICIAN AND NOW YOUR SHADOW?!

"You won't have to worry though about my inferior." ShadowLestia said

"Huh?!" Celestia asked

"Life will come my way,
It has only just begun.
Your life will die alone
The frail will fall below.

I will take your place.
I'll return you back to normal
The calm before the cold,
The long and lonely road.

Look for the light that leads you home. *finger snap and the guards ready their weapons*

Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.
Tear your whole world down, tear your whole world down.
Failure."

*You and Celestia then run and split up with the guards going after Celestia and ShadowLestia going after you with a mid evil style sword as you tried leading her to Cinch's office*

"Drive the cloud away,
She will fall from last to none.
The dark before the dawn,
The world will carry on.

Look for the light that leads her home.

Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.
Tear her whole world down, tear her whole world down.
Tired of wasted breath, tired of nothing left.
Tear her whole world down, tear her whole world down.
Failure."

*After making it to Cinch's office and closing the door and drawing out your Evoker you waited for ShaodwLestia to open the door and when she did...BAANG! Thanatos appeared and the two had a sword battle all the while ShadowLestia continued to sing.*

"Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.
Tear her whole world down, tear her whole world down.
Tired of wasted breath, tired of nothing left.
Tear her whole world down, tear her whole world down.

I'll bury her sunlight (Failure), I'll bury her sunlight (Failure).
Failure! Failure.
I'll bury her sunlight (Failure), I'll bury her sunlight (Failure).
Failure! Failure."

"Failure." You sung with a smirk

Unknown to ShadowLestia her singing left her a bit distracted which gave Thanatos the perfect opportunity to attack and stab his sword into ShadowLestia.

"Well that was anti-climatic." You groaned

But ShadowLestia wasn't disappearing.

"What the?! Hey you should be tuning back into Celestia right now!" You said

"[REDACTED], can you hear me?!"

"Yeah I hear ya Flutters looks like ya figured out ho to talk through your Persona." You said

"You've gotta save Principal Celestia! My analysis says you're not gonna be able to damage Shadow Celestia until you take out those Shadow Guards!"

"Oh fuck. I forgot about them." You said, "HOLD ON PRINCIPAL CELESTIA I'M COMING!"

You then ran out of the office hoping to make it to Celestia before she became a shish kabob.
