The Queen Of Shadows (Persona 5 Fanfic)

Chapter 20

We sat around the table eating. Catherine seemed to be the only one who didn't each much. With all the stress she's been going through. Allt he problems she's been facing. I just wish I knew what the problems were. After a whole big Fiasco at the elevators and such. We all sat around the table looking at the empty plates.

"So should we continue the Phantom Thieves?" Catherine asked. "If we do... We will give those who are weaker hope. We will save people and help avenge the ones who couldn't be saved. If we do this. We could change the world for the better. Even if its in a sorta dangerous way" Catherine explained. "Mistress Catherine does make her point" Morganna said. Morganna sitting in Catherines lap. Its like Morganna couldn't help but be a real cat around Catherine. "I wouldn't mind contining when you put it like that" Ann said. "Yeah. We could be well know" Ryuji added. Everyone looking at me. "Let's do it" I said. "Well now that we all want to continue. We need a name" Ryuji said. Everyone suggested ideas. But I had a decent name. "The Phantoms" I said. "Not bad" Catherine said. She sighed. "Now I vote that Akiras leader" Catherine continued. "I was thinking the same thing Catherine" Ann said. "I don't disagree. I wouldn't be able to handle all that responsibility stuff" Ryuji said. Morganna agreeing as well. "Then its settled. From now on we are a official phantom thieves group" Moraganna said. The buzzer going off. Signalling us that our time was up. We got ourselves together and left.

After School the following day we all gathered on the roof. Morganna said he wanted to show us something. "So I want to show you all this place. Its another palace" Morganna said. Catherine uncrossed her legs. "Hmm I think I might have a clue where your taking us Morganna"  Catherine said softly. "Do we have a small target? Right?" Morganna asked. "Yes" Ryuji replied. "Good then let's go" Morganna said leading us to the train station. "Now put in the word-""Mementos" Catherine said cutting Morganna off. Everyone seemingly disappearing but us. "The shared palace of the vast public desires and such. Smart Morganna" Catherine complimented. Morganna seemed shocked. "You know about this place already?" He asked. Catherine sighed. "Yeah. Did some if my own exploring" she replied. "You also knew how to change a persons heart without any explanation" Ann mentioned. "I first thought that maybe you just got a lucky  guess" Ryuji said. Catherine sighed. "Yeah yeah. I set it up. Meeting you guys in that palace. I already knew about it. I already knew about you two" Catherine said. She crossed her arms. "I know a lot of this place. For a long time I didn't even remember this place. But I finally found them. Which also means I know what Morganna really is" She added. She walked to us. "Ill tell you all everything in due time" She said.  In that moment she siunded like igor. She turned. "Morganna you can show them around. They prob'ly dont want me around anymore" she said. Ann went to stop her but she was already running away. I took off running after her with Ann. Ryuji joining us with Morganna. We ran down the steps and she wasn't there. Our clothes changed now. "Catherine knew the whole time" Ann said. "She knows what I am? So am I human right?" Morganna asked. "Let's just go get the target. She'll come around" I said. "But Joker" Ann said. "Don't. She thinks we don't need her. Let's show her we do" I said.

We finsihed the shadow. I looked down at my feet. "We should go look at if the thing opened" Morganna whispered. Moraganna leading us somewhere. Trains going by.  We got there and automatically stopped. "Knew Moraganna would lead you guys here" Catherine said. I covered my mouth and looked at Ryuji who was drooling. Ann smacked Ryuji. "Hey stop looking at her like that!" Ann said standing in front for the new and imrpoved Catherine. "Show some respect like Joker Skull!" Ann said. "Its okay Ann" Catherine said. She walked forward. "This is my rebels outfit. I'm gonna accept it as is" she said.

Catherines outfit was no longer so innocent like. Now she looked like a mature lady. She had a black choker around her neck. White chains connceted that choker to her sleveless black shirt. It cut down like Anns in the front. The shirt ended  right above her Stomach. She had white chains conecting the bottom of the crop top to her black shorts. The shorts were so short. They barely went down her thighs. Thigh high boots on the rest of her legs. White chains wrapping around the black boots and connecting to the shorts. The boots ending in a heel. My eyes went back up to her arms. She had elbow length fingerless gloves. They were lace gloves and were black with white chains connecting to the sleveless Crop top. Her mask has white around the eyes with two spots under it where her cheeks would be. there was a point at the top kinda like a crown still. it had a white and black design. On the very pointed edges were white. Her hair tied into a pony tail. White chains wrapped in her hair. She had white fingernails that kinda were sharp like claws. Her blues eyes sparkiling. I could feel my face getting hotter. "Your guys are so childish" Catherine Said. Morganna was purring. "Wow mistress Catherine is so beautiful" he said. "She's freakin hot" Ryuji muttered. I was to lost for words. I uncovered my mouth and walked to her. "So why is your outfit different?" I asked her. I kept looking away from her and not in her eyes. "I told you. I got my memories back and that means I finally got my real persona back" she explained. "M-Makes sense" I stittered. Her hands grabbing my face. I was forced to look her in the eyes. "Your stuttering? You okay Joker?" She asked with a smirk. I got lost. I couldn't answer her. I saw black and white rings on her fingers.
