No one POV

Finally all of them arrived at where Kamoshida put his treasure . They all saw his treasure floating in air .

" It really did appear ! "

"This is Kamoshida's Treasure . " Ren said .

"Man , it's huge ! " Ryuji exclaimed as they all saw the big crown in air .

"We have to take this out here ? ! " Ann ask as Rin just shrug .

"T-treasure ! " Morgana run towards to the big crown .

Before Morgana reached the crown , they all saw Shadow Kamoshida snatched the crown making Morgana fall .

"I won't let anyone take this ! " Shadow Kamoshida hold the crown as the fake Ann starting hug him . "This proves that I am the king of this castle . "

" Oh Sensei , your face is so scary , but I'm shivering with enctement ! " Fake Ann said .

" Don't be so impatient ! I'll throw some love your way later . "Shadow Kamoshida staring at her .

" That's rat ! " Ann clenched her fist . " That's how he sees me , isn't it ? "

"Yeah . It's how he thought of you , without regarding your feelings . " Morgana explain .

" You're disgusting ! " Ann shout . " If you think you can get away with anything , you're surely mistaken ! "

" Hmph ! You've got the wrong idea about me . "

"The wrong idea ?  How so ? "

"The students around me are the ones who set the stage . " Shadow Kamoshida answer . "Students who wished to bask in my accomplishment , coming to me by the irown volition ! Including naive brats like you and that girl who jumped off the roof ! " The group can see the red aura surrounding him .

" Crap . I don't like where this is going . " Ryuji mumble .

" I'm not like others humans ! " Shadow Kamoshida yelled .

Suddenly he turned into a big pink monster with long tongue and also wearing a crown .

"What the-" Rin staring that Shadow Kamoshida .

" I'm going rule this works ! As a demon ! " Shadow Kamoshida about to spike the volleyball at us .

"Get ready everyone ! " Ren inform his teams .

"Carmen ! " Ann use fire skill to burn the volleyball . But Kamoshida still use the other volleyball to attack .

" He's way stronger like this ! " Ryuji yelled .

"What should we do ? " Rin ask as she saw Kamoshida use his power to increase his strength .

"This is bad ! " Morgana and Ren take out something and they both using it making a smoke to let them escape .

"Where are you ? Where'd you go ? " Kamoshida trying to find them .

Five of them hiding behind the pillar .

"Remember , we're only after the treasure . " Morgana remind the teams . "Look ! We can steal it from over there ! " Morgana point upstairs .

"Bit that's impossible . We'll just . . . . " Ann hesitated .

"Looks like a job for me . " Four of them turned to Ryuji .

"Skull . "

"Yeah ! Time to show off your monkey like agility . " Morgana said to Ryuji .

"Mona ! This is not time to joke around ! " Rin said .

"Sorry . "

"Be careful . " Ren remind him .

" I'm not expecting much . . . " Ann said .

"Hey ! "

"But we all counting on you . " Ann continue .

" Leave it to me ! " Ryuji stand up and about to make a move when suddenly a hand grab his wrist . Ryuji looked and saw it was Rin grab his arm .

"Rin ? " His brother ask seeing his sister .

"Please be careful . " Rin try to smile .

Ryuji smile back . "I will . "

"C'mon , we need to distract him . "Ren said as the others walking out and get ready face to Kamoshida .

" Finally showing yourselves , huh ? Where's Sakamoto ? " He realised Ryuji not there .

"Don't mind him , the four of us are more than enough to take down a creep like you ! " Ann said before she summons her persona using fire skill to Kamoshida .

"Zorro ! "

"Kaguya ! " Both Morgana and Rin using wind skill to attack .

"Arsene ! " Ren also summons his persona to attack .

"Bastard ! How dare you ! " Kamoshida said felling pain as he grab something inside from a trophy and eat it . " How refreshing!"

"What ? ! " The teams saw Kamoshida gaining his strength
again . Then Kamoshida using his long tongue to attack making Ann and Rin fall .

"Lady Rin ! Lady Ann ! " Morgana scream as he staring that trophy coming from Kamoshida . " Looks like we have to break that thing first . " Morgana take out his slingshot and aim through that trophy .

"Hey ! You don't know how much this worth ! It's national championship trophy ! "Kamoshida yelled .

"Like we care . " Ann mumble as she and Rin try to stand up .

"Hey ! You shoot it too ! " Morgana told to Ren as Ren take out his gun a fire at the trophy making the trophy break .

"Told you . This is cognitive world . If he perceives it as a weapon , it becomes the real thing. " Morgana explain .

" That's amazing , Ren-nii ! " Rin said happily .

" What did you do , you bastard ? ! Take this ! GOLD MEDAL ATTACK ! " Kamoshida spikes the volleyball at the ground and it's turned out the volleyball is explosive making all of them unconscious .

"G-guys . . . " Rin looked at Ann and Morgana already falling unconscious . She then saw Kamoshida want to using the same skill at her brother .

" It's over , you delinquent ! "

"Ren-nii . . . . " Rin approach her brother but she saw that her brother body not moving . She then standing in front of her brother .

"Kaguya ! " Rin summons her Persona . " Please heal all of them Kaguya . " Her Persona using recover skill to her teammate .

" It's no use ! Gold medal attack ! "Kamoshida about to spiked the volleyball .

Rin shut her eyes ready to get impact .

"PERSONA ! ! " Ren summons his Persona to block the attack and prevent his sister getting hit .

"Ren-nii ! ! ! " Rin walked towards at her brother and realized that her brother persona changed .

"A new Persona ? ! " Morgana exclaimed feeling refresh after getting healed from Rin Persona .

"A human that can use multiple Personas?What . . . . Is he ? "

"Ren-nii , you alright ? " Rin take her brother hand and pull him up .

Ren nod . "All thanks to you for healing . " Ren patted his sister head . "Now . "He looked at Kamoshida .

"Take this ! " Ren Persona using curse skill to attack Kamoshida .

Then all of them saw Ryuji snatched the crown from Kamoshida .

"That symbol of my kingship ! " Kamoshida try to take the crown .

"Now ! " All of them surround Kamoshida . "Checkmate . " Ren said as all of them using All-Out-Attack to finish Kamoshida .

Rin POV

We all saw Kamoshida try to run away to window but he hesitating to jump .

"Right now , you're seeing the same view that Shiho did . " Ann spoke . " You're cornered -There's nowhere to run . And you're facing the same view . "

They forced their expectations on me . . . " Kamoshida stutter . "I-I was desperate , too ! "

" That's no excuse for what you did !"Ryuji exclaimed.

You saw Ann summons her Persona and her Persona prepare to attack .

"Will you jump ? Or would you rather die here ? "

"D -Don't ! Please stop ! " Kamoshida plead .

" Everyone said the same to you ! But you took everything from then without hesitation . You gave in to your selfish desires . " You saw Ann persona shooting a fire just beside making him flinch . "If his minds shuts down , he can't admit his crimes . "

" You're kind , Lady Ann . . . " Morgana said .

" I've lost . . " Kamoshida kneel . " You're through when you lose . What am I supposed to do now ? "

"Atone for your sins . " Ren-nii answer .

Kamoshida raised his head up . "All right . . . I will leave now and return to my real self . " A light coming from him . " I'll make certain that I-" We all saw he vanished .

Suddenly you all feel the castle started shaking .

" Crap ! Hey we gotta run ! " Ryuji warned .

"Ann ! " You called her .

"I know . " She answer as we all run to get out the castle before it's collapsed .
