"ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!" You shouted

"No!! Pinkie, Rainbow, and Applejack went missing last night during our investigation!" Sunset stated

"How the hell do you know?!" You asked

"Principal Celestia made an announcement that their parents as well as Big Mac, Applebloom, and Maud and Limestone reported their absence this morning to her!" Rarity explained

"The stakes have been raised. Who ever is doing these kidnappings obviously know who to go after from the looks of things." You explained, "If I remember correctly once during 4th period one of you actually explained to me that Rainbow, Pinkie, Applejack, Sunset, and you Rarity were in a band called the Rainbooms."

"Yes were are but what does that have to do with anything?!" Sunset asked

"Whoever kidnapped Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie probably knows them." You explained, "Do you happen to know anyone who might want to take revenge you you guys?"

"Well there's-"

"[REDACTED], Sunset Shimmer, Twilight Sparkle, Fluttershy, and Rarity please report to the principals office immediately!"

That was Principal Celestia, and she did not sound happy.

"I think we've been found out." You squeaked in fear

When you and the girls arrived at Principal Celestia's office she had a look that was both angry and suspicious of you and your friends.

"Take a seat."

You did so and so did Sunset, Twilight, Fluttershy, and Rarity in one of the five chairs in front of her desk.

"Um, what is it you called us here for?" You asked nervously for obvious reasons

"What were you doing at school in the middle of the night." Celestia said sternly

You and the girls did a nervous gulp simultaneously as looks of fear appeared on your faces.

CRAP WE'RE SCREWED!

"ANSWER ME DAMN IT!!!" Celsetia shouted in clear anger slamming her fist on the office table

"How-how did you know we we there last night?" You asked with a hint of a squeak in your voice

"Me and Vice Principal Luna have been wondering who had been in school late at night so we did the only logical thing. Check the security footage." Celestia said with a bit of a anger growl at the end

You could tell by the way sweat was rolling down Sunset that she forgot all about the security cameras. But to be fair you kind of did too.

"Not only that but we saw you [REDACTED] through the footage first time these events happened. Then after that we found you and the Rainbooms on the night footage, then another night later same thing, but the difference was that the students who went missing, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie bandaged severely! Not only that, but when we heard at the same time the students that went missing was returned home we found each of you carrying them out of CHS!"

You and the girls gulped again, Fluttershy was on the brink of tears.

"And also on the same footage as the one with the currently missing bandaged students monsters are attacking them and nearly destroy the cafeteria door trying to get to them! You are going to explain to me right this instant just what is going on or else!!!"

You then stood up out of your seat with a determined look on your face.

I can't look like a coward right now. I have not. Come this far. To, practically, die now.

"You want an explanation?! I'll give you your damn explanation!" You shouted, "YOUR SCHOOL IS UNDER ATTACK BY GOD DAMN SHADOWS AND THE DARK HOUR!!!"

"Sh-shadows?! Dark Hour?! What the hell are you talking about?!" Principal Celestia shouted

"Let me explain." You said

You then explained to Celestia all about Personas, the Dark Hour, Shadows, Shadow Selves, and the Persona game series in general.

"So-so that's the only eplanation you've got? How do I know you're not lying." Celestia said with a hint of distrust

"I figured you probably wouldn't believe us. Then come to my house tonight at midnight. Me, Sunset, Twilight, Rarity, and Fluttershy too, I guess, are gonna investigate the town to see if we can find any clues towards their disappearance." You explained

"What? What happened to us investigating the school?" Sunset asked you

"Well we found squat last time when we investigated CHS remember? I think it's time we investigated somewhere else for now. Maybe if I can get my moms keys I can get her spare key to Crystal Prep." You explained

"CRYSTAL PREP?!?!" Everyone went

"That's our best bet right now as to where AJ, Rainbow, and Pinkie is right now. I asked them earlier if there was anyone who would want to take revenge on the Rainbooms and my best guess is that they might be over at Crystal Prep right now, but it's only a hunch." You explained

"Wait why would your mom have a key to Crystal Prep?" Celestia asked

"My mom got a job over there as an assistant coach and even explained to me once that sometimes her job required her to do night shifts sometimes but only for meetings and stuff like that." You explained, "I'm sure I can get my hands on the key, my parents usually go to bed by 8:30 and wake up around 6:57. Now if this is all can we please leave now? I gotta look up the Crystal Prep map online so I can get an understanding of it."

"Or you could follow my lead." Twilight suggested

"Oh yeah that's right! You used to go to Crystal Prep! You'll know where EVERYTHING is!" You said

"Well, if this is all may we please leave?" Sunset asked

You and the girls were then dismissed from Celestias office. After you and the girls left the rest of the school day went on as normal.

Your return home was just as it would be, eating dinner, playing Persona 3 Portable Female Mode and getting your ass kicked by Theodore for what seemed like the millionth time, and watching lets plays and walkthroughs of Revelations Persona/Shin Megami Tensei Persona. Then like as if it was nothing 12:00 hit. You went downstairs and grabbed your moms Crystal Prep key which you could tell was it via the label on it. Going back up stairs to your room you left like you usually did via the roof and was greeted with Sunset, Twilight, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Principal Celestia.

"Did you get the key?" Sunset asked

You pulled it out of your pants pocket.

"Really? Who labels keys anymore?" Celestia asked

"My parents." You answered

"Yeah walked myself right into that one." Celestia answered

And just like that you and the girls were off into the city, unaware of the new things waiting ahead for them.
