So here we are. The final chapter. I just want to say thanks to everyone and anyone who even just took a look at my story. Anyone who reviewed, favored, or followed this story, I also thank you guys as well. As always if you have something to say, don't be afraid to say it. Needless to say I'm both really happy and sad this story is finally ending but I hope you guys enjoy! Also have some very important notes at the end, but for now, just enjoy the final chapter of Turnabout Persona!

Apollo and Athena were smiling wildly as Kanji and Shinjiro were in such a happy state. The four of them were back in the courtroom lobby as the trial was finally over. The members of SEES and the Investigation Team along with Ms. Toriumi and Ema entered with them, also in a happy state. Juniper also entered with smiles, as she dragged Myriam in, as well. Needless to say the courtroom lobby was very crowded right now.

"I apologize for not taking them back right away after you told me yesterday," Ema was explaining to Ms. Toriumi. "Mr. Wright suggested to have them help out after you left, but I understand if you feel annoyed by what I did,"

"It's fine Ms. Skye," Ms. Toriumi answered back calmly with a smile. "If Mr. Wright thought it was for the best, then I trust his judgment. Plus it all worked out in the end anyway,"

"Way to go Shinjiro sempai! You are a free man!" Junpei comically explained as he gave the older teen a hug. Shinjiro just smiled and returned it.

"Shinjiro sempai, how does it feel, after everything and all?" Yukari asked with a smile.

"Feels great. It's been a while since I've felt this glad about things turning out the way it did," Shinjiro answered.

"Well it was pretty close Shinji. If it weren't for Mr. Justice and Ms. Cykes, you would have been a goner," Akihiko joked, as the two shook hands with confidence.

"Well I definitely thank them for everything," Shinjiro said, in high spirits.

"How does it feel Kanji? Cutting it close as always," Rise teased. Kanji sighed with a huge smile, as he was glad it was over.

"I'm so glad Shinjiro sempai and you are safe Kanji," Naoto stated with a big smile. Kanji just sheepishly grinned as he blushed and looked away from Naoto.

"That was awesome Mr. Justice! The way you shouted and showed everyone what you were made of!" Chie exclaimed.

"Well my chords of steel are for real. Though I admit they're feeling pretty tired from all the shouting now," Apollo answered back embarrassed.

"Also Ms. Cykes definitely was a huge help as well." Yukiko added.

"It was nothing," Athena said with a grin. "Besides myself, I owe it to my little pal Widget and his Mood Matrix program,"

"That's a very impressive program and technological device Ms. Cykes," Mitsuru stated. "Also your skills along with Mr. Justice were very impressive,"

"Thank you so much for defending our friends," Fuuka said very happily. "Also I love to see your device in the future. It's very interesting,"

"We should all celebrate at the restaurant, back at the Gatewater Hotel. We would have more time to spend together tonight," Yu suggested.

"I agree. After this crazy trial, be nice to settle back into relaxing," Makoto suggested.

"Sorry about getting Mr. Gavin sick and having you guys face off against Prosecutor Blackquill. I made things a lot harder for you two when I pulled that bad lunch stunt earlier. I still feel kind of bad for that Mr. Justice and Ms. Cykes," Yosuke said embarrassed.

"Forget about it. We won the case and saved your friends. It's not a big deal," Athena answered, as she brushed it off.

"You did a great job Apollo! Thank you so much for saving all our new friends!" Juniper beamed as she hugged Apollo. Athena smirked as she was aware of Juniper's crush for Apollo.

"You did good mister red lawyer. The cover story for next month's article is definitely going to show you off in the spotlight," Myriam added.

"You should keep the box off Myriam. You look a lot better without it," Yukiko suggested.

"Maybe. For now I like where it is. I have to admit, that Prosecutor Blackquill will never cease to be intimidating," Myriam answered back.

"He's not a big deal. I bet in a real sword fight he lose," Junpei boasted as two people suddenly entered the room as he still faced the others. Their expressions became one of awkwardness as they tried to signal to Junpei to stop talking but he didn't pick up on it. "Why if he was in this room right now, I show him the ways of the samurai, Junpei style!"

"Is that so?" replied a voice in a teasing tone. Junpei immediately tensed as he slowly looked behind him and saw Prosecutor Blackquill in new chains with Taka still perched on his right shoulder, with Detective Fulbright right behind, making sure Blackquill was on his best behavior.

"Err... you heard the whole thing didn't you?" Junpei asked nervously, while Yukari rolled her eyes.

"More or less. Don't worry... I'm not in the mood to be cutting down unarmed fools at the moment," Blackquill said. Junpei immediately nodded as he ran behind Makoto, just in case.

"What brings you here Prosecutor Blackquill? We don't normally see you after the trials like this," Athena asked curious.

"Just here to say... congrats to you all. That's it," Blackquill stated as he soon turned to leave.

"Wait, Prosecutor Blackquill!" Yu shouted. The prosecutor turned around to face them all once more. "We all noticed that towards the end you let up a bit, when you could have easily kept going on the offensive,"

"What about it?" Blackquill asked.

"We just wanted to say... thank you," Makoto stated simply.

"Just doing my job," Blackquill said with a slight smirk. "I desire the truth as well. I just fight for my position very well. That's all. I wanted to make sure everything was fool proof considering it was always possible that scamp could have been innocent as well."

"Well if I head back to the idol business, maybe I'll write a song about the prisoner prosecutor with the heart of gold," Rise teased. "But seriously, we all thank you. Sorry about what I said earlier if it offended you in any way but... you could stand to be nicer in the courtroom at least,"

"Hmph. I rather not hear such a thing. But I'll keep it in mind." Blackquill said, as he began to leave.

"So where are you going now?" Ms. Toriumi asked.

"Back to my prison cell. My duty has currently been fulfilled," Blackquill stated. Athena cringed upon hearing this, as she still had her own concerns. The others noticed this once more, and they would definitely try to help her out later over this.

"Till the next trial, huh?" Apollo asked.

"I suppose so Justice-dono. By the way... to the girl with the teal hair... keep practicing your cooking. It's bound to get better as your fellow friends on video said," Blackquill answered with a smirk back as he left the courtroom lobby with Fulbright following him. Fuuka couldn't help but smile with embarrassment as everyone realized, he wasn't a complete jerk. Myriam however suddenly remembered something as she asked Juniper this question.

"So... is the school festival still happening tomorrow? I mean it was suppose to be for the students from other schools and all," Myriam asked to Juniper.

"That's... a really good point. I guess so since the trial is resolved? By the way has anyone seen where Mr. Wright has gone?" Juniper said.

"After the trial he told me, he had to go home to prepare his speech for tomorrow's festival." Ema answered.

"In that case, we should hold it then. Plus it be a fun way for you guys to have some fun after what happened with the murder and all." Juniper said. The members of SEES and the Investigation team smiled at what they heard.

"That reminds me. Do you know who's going to handle all the Yasogami High students since Mr. Morooka passed away?" Naoto asked to Ms. Toriumi.

"Yes. When I went down to the station with Detective Fulbright, I made sure to contact Yasogami High among the others things I had to do there. A replacement teacher and chaperone will be here by tomorrow to handle you all. Till then, all of the Yasogami High students are all my responsibility as well," Ms Toriumi explained.

"Huh. I wonder who the replacement is?" Chie said.

"Not to interrupt but my stomach is starving," Kanji said politely. "Can we please get going? I've had no chance to really eat at all today. Though we should probably pick up my jacket and Shinjiro sempai's cap along the way,"

"Then why don't we all go then! I think we're all starving considering it's now evening and that trial took up so much time. Let's get their jacket and cap and enjoy dinner!" Athena said. They all happily nodded as they all made their way back to the Gatewater Hotel.

We now see the members of SEES and the Investigation Team all fully reunited at last having dinner together happily and were joined by Juniper and Myriam (without her box for once after much persuasion). Kanji finally had his black jacket back, and Shinjiro had his black cap back as well. Ema, Athena, Apollo, and Ms. Toriumi were also on the same large table as they all discussed many topics. They were all talking till a familiar blue suited man once again entered, that caught their attention once more.

"Mr. Wright! Finished your speech early huh?" Ema said happily.

"You can say that. I just came here to congratulate everyone for a great job well done. I'm glad everything worked out," Phoenix said calmly. "Also I came here to talk to Apollo about something very important. May I request some of your time Apollo? I also have to talk with Ms. Toriumi about something in regards to the trial,"

"Of course Mr. Wright. I have no problem with that," Apollo said, as he got up from his seat and went to talk with Mr. Wright outside of the restaurant. Ms. Toriumi soon followed in pursuit.

"Man... I love to work under Mr. Wright as opposed to dealing with Klavier," Ema whined. "Well I'll be right back. Have to use the restroom," and with that Ema left as well.

"I think this be a good chance for us to ask Ms. Cykes about her relation to Prosecutor Blackquill," Yu whispered to the others. Juniper and Myriam were confused, but shrugged as they watched what soon unfolded.

"Ms. Cykes? Do you mind if we ask you some questions?" Rise asked.

"Sure. I have no problems. After all, we've all been talking throughout dinner right? What is it?" Athena answered calmly.

"We were wondering if you were willing to elaborate on your relationship with Prosecutor Blackquill. You seem to flinch a lot whenever his past gets brought up," Naoto asked.

"Oh... well maybe?" Athena answered back unsure.

"We're sorry if we touched on something you didn't want us to bring up," Yukiko said.

"We were concerned because your heart seemed to be hurting, whenever he was brought up like that," Fuuka added concerned.

"Oh. Sorry about that. I hate to make you guys worry like that," Athena said, as she was concerned for them now. "I guess I can talk about it a little bit. You guys are lucky that Mr. Wright, Ms. Toriumi, Apollo and Ema aren't here at the moment. Remember to keep this a secret amongst yourselves though! Where to begin... I've actually known Prosecutor Blackquill since I was a child,"

"Really? How have you known each other for so long?" Akihiko asked.

"I've met him at my mom's workplace. He knew my mother as well who worked there. Prosecutor Blackquill also has a sister that worked with my mom. Both my mother and Blackquill's sister were researchers studying and developing robotics and the use of emotional psychology," Athena explained so far.

"Wow. Did your mother create the Mood Matrix?" Yukari asked, amazed.

"Yep. She also created my AI buddy Widget who contains it." Athena said as she pointed towards her smiling machine, she wore around her neck. "The reason Prosecutor Blackquill visited aside from seeing his sister at the workplace was... my mother would also teach him psychology to use in court. This was all before... that terrible incident," Athena added.

"Terrible incident?" Yosuke asked.

"Sounds like we shouldn't continue talking about this then. It's always painful to bring up bad memories," Mitsuru said concerned.

"No it's fine. Part of growing up for myself... is having to accept that bad things happen and you have to move on from them. Continuing on... one day at my mother's workplace... someone was murdered along with a bombing at the workplace. Prosecutor Blackquill was found guilty for the crimes as he was present at the scene," Athena said, trying not to get into too much details. Silence filled them all, as they took this information in. "However... I believe Prosecutor Blackquill isn't the true culprit,"

"What do you mean?" Chie asked quietly.

"From what I know of the events, it just doesn't seem to add up. I feel that he's taking the blame on purpose for some reason and he's not the real culprit. It's... what my heart is telling me," Athena answered quietly.

"Well good luck and prove the world wrong about Blackquill then! Prove he isn't the culprit like you did for me and Shinjiro sempai!" Kanji said with enthusiasm.

"We wish you the best of luck. Anyone who pursues the truth for justice is cool in my book," Yu said.

"Never give up till it's the end, but till then keep going," Shinjiro said with encouraging words.

"Also the fact you're doing this to protect someone who you believe was wronged, is very admirable," Makoto said.

Athena smiled. For some reason, telling these teenagers these details made her feel better. She looked towards them all with a big smile. Perhaps it was the fact she could finally talk to someone about it, as she has yet to discuss this with anyone else. She then looked towards Juniper and Myriam as they nodded and showed they wouldn't discuss it with anyone else. Soon Ema came back from the restroom as they went back to discussing miscellaneous topics. Phoenix, Apollo, and Ms. Toriumi eventually came back as well.

"So it seems something came up that I really need to address when we get back to Japan," Ms. Toriumi said with an embarrassed tone. "I'll have to ask the school board to pay for Mr. Justice and Ms. Cykes and the Wright Anything Agency as, they still need to be paid in the end,"

"Don't worry about that Ms. Toriumi. I can compensate them," Mitsuru suggested.

"But aren't you only in high school? Can you afford to pay for the defense?" Ema asked with raised eyebrows.

"Well we all never had a chance to properly introduce ourselves to you I just realized. I'm Mitsuru Kirijo," Mitsuru said.

"Kirijo... you mean the company that operates all over? That Kirijo?" Ema asked surprised. Mitsuru nodded. "Wow. Then Athena and Apollo, as well as Mr. Wright's agency, can definitely get paid for defending,"

"What did you talk with Mr. Wright about anyway, Apollo?" Athena asked. Apollo flashed a big smirk.

"I can't say. You'll find out during Mr. Wright's speech tomorrow. I'll just say it's pretty big news," Apollo said with confidence.

"Well guys, I have to get going. I'll see you all tomorrow at the festival at Themis Legal Academy. Have a good night everyone," Phoenix said. He soon left and they continued having dinner. When they finished, Ema drove Juniper and Myriam back to their respective homes and soon everyone headed back to their respective rooms, took a nice shower, and finally rested for tomorrow's events.

It was now Friday, November 7th. Themis Legal Academy has reopened and the students were once again at the building. But instead of class, everyone was having fun as the students from Gekkoukan and Yasogami High were all enjoying themselves. Many stands were set up, as many games and activities themed after the law occurred. Juniper took the members of SEES and the Investigation Team around, as they even got to act out a mock trial for fun. Junpei got to play the role of the ace detective... who was discovered to have been the real culprit all along while Makoto and Yu played the role of lawyer and prosecutor respectively. It was a fun mock trial where all the members got to participate in some way. They all got to even keep a recorded tape for each of them, as Juniper wanted to make sure they all had a fun memory to keep from this experience. Throughout the day everyone was enjoying themselves. Soon it was evening once more as everyone was outside at the outdoor stage setup for a certain rock star prosecutor and for Mr. Wright's speech. Apollo, Athena, Ema, and Ms. Toriumi were together along with the students of Gekkoukan, Yasogami, and Themis Legal Academy as they were also outside.

"So we all meet again," Klavier said as he met the two groups once more. Yosuke in particular gulped as he did give the man, food poisoning the day before.

"Prosecutor Gavin. Are you feeling better?" Juniper asked.

"I am. Though I think I'll have to be more... selective of the food I receive from now on," Klavier said with a bit of a glare, as he looked at Yosuke.

"Sorry about that. I really hope you don't hold it against me," Yosuke whimpered. Klavier just sighed but he soon smiled.

"Well things happen. You're lucky I'm a pretty easygoing guy. Anyway we should all be quiet, as Herr Wright is about to say his speech soon. You should all do well to listen as I'm sure he has some wise words to say as always," Klavier replied.

The whole area went silent as all the students from Gekkoukan, Yasogami, and Themis Legal Academy turned to face the legendary ace attorney, as he soon got up on the stage and onto a podium that had a mic. He held a smile, and soon sighed, preparing himself for his speech.

"Hello everyone. Whether you're from Themis Legal Academy or visiting, I hope you are all having a fun time today on this joyous occasion where we get to share the legal world with others, who may become part of it one day. I know it must be hard to stand strong sometimes considering what happened recently... but we have to always keep pressing on in life, if we want to be able to make something of ourselves. So whether or not you want to become a lawyer, prosecutor, judge, or any profession... never lose hope of your dreams and always try. Don't be afraid of failure, because it's a natural part of life. Embrace it and learn from it to help yourself to become stronger. Hopefully we can all embrace justice in our lives to help protect those in need and to find the truth. I wish the best for you all," Phoenix said as everyone began to clap wildly, from him as they were all inspired.

However Phoenix still had a calm smile upon his face as the crowd quieted down, as he still had one more thing to say.

"I have one more important thing to announce. I've thought long and hard about this... and I've came to a very special conclusion. After I resolve a very important matter for myself, for a friend, for the falsely accused, and for the legal world in general... I will begin the preparations necessary for me to become a professor here at Themis Legal Academy. It's time for me to pass on the torch to my two special proteges who I believe can follow in my footsteps. After all, the younger generation is our future, a generation I also wish to help guide towards a brighter future. Thank you all so much for taking the time out of your day to listen to my speech. I hope you enjoy Prosecutor Gavin's rendition of the Guitar's Serenade. Enjoy and have fun everyone!" and with that Phoenix left the stage wowing the crowd once more, as they all cheered his name.

"He's... going to pass the torch onto us at some point?" Athena whispered. Apollo nodded back as Athena had tears in her eyes.

"We'll do you proud Mr. Wright!" Athena whispered back happily.

"That was amazing Professor Wright!" Ema shouted, wanting to already calling him a professor at Themis Legal Academy, even if he wasn't one yet.

"What an inspiration," Ms. Toriumi said with tears in her eyes, as she wiped them.

Soon Klavier all got on stage and played a very calm soothing accoustic rendition of a famous music song, known as the Guitar's Serenade. As the quiet soothing melody played, the whole crowd had a sense of peace and tranquility lulled onto them. When Prosecutor Gavin finished, the crowd cheered for the cheerful prosecutor. Soon the festival ended and the night came to a close. The Investigation Team, along with SEES, Phoenix, Apollo, Ema, Athena and Ms. Toriumi were all together as they conversed before everyone headed back home. A certain student that they had met in the gym the other day was now there as she caught up on everything, due to Juniper and Myriam (back in her cardboard box) as the three Themis Legal Academy students had what appeared to be a camera and a stand for it.

"Hey guys!" Robin shouted, happy to see them all again. "Since today is your last day before we all go, why don't we take a photo for the memories. Should be C-O-O-L!"

Soon the huge group got into a group shot, as Robin set the camera before joining in. It was a happy memory (despite Yosuke and Junpei pulling up Myriam's box during the shot, resulting in them both getting punched by the box loving girl right after) as everyone received their own photos of the picture.

We reconvene the next morning at the entrance of Gatewater Hotel as Ms. Toriumi was waiting outside for the replacement chaperone for Yasogami High's students. She had both groups ordered outside as the bus for Gekkoukan was already there, as the other chaperone was suppose to arrive from the bus taking the Yasogami High students, as they were all heading to the airport to take a plane back to Japan.

"Where is she? She should be here?" Ms. Toriumi said as she waited. However a large van soon showed up carrying some familiar individuals. Phoenix, Apollo, Athena, Ema, Juniper, Robin, and Myriam (who was not wearing her box at the moment). "Are you all seeing us off?"

"Yes. It was a pleasure to meet you all. I wish you all a safe trip," Phoenix said calmly as he shook hands with the high school teacher. He then went to the members of SEES and the Investigation Team and gave them all a hand shake as well.

"Be safe guys! Also thanks again for the payment. Always good to have some spending money," Apollo mused comically as he shook all their hands.

"Back to the boring school life huh? Well maybe we'll meet again one day," Athena said happily as she shook their hands as well.

"Do well at school guys. Especially science if you can," Ema encouraged as she gave them all a friendly hand shake as well.

"Remember to communicate over the phone and internet whenever you can!" Juniper said, as she gave them all a big friendly hug.

"Remember to always keep ROCKING ON!" Robin yelled as she also gave a hug, though it was more firm in comparison.

"You guys better appreciate next month's issue of our academy's newspapers starring you guys, besides mister red lawyer. I'm mailing you each a copy overseas to all of you," Myriam, said as she gave a hug to them all as well.

The members of SEES and the Investigation Team all nodded back as they were happy yet really sad. Not only would they lose contact with those they met at Themis Legal Academy, they would lose direct contact with each other as well.

"Well I'm glad to have met you all guys," Junpei stated. "It was fun catching the bad guy like this."

"It was a great experience overall in the world of legal matters," Yukari said to the others.

"We'll never forget about each other. We'll always be friends!" Fuuka said with happiness and tears present in her eyes.

"This was truly a memory I won't forget anytime soon," Mitsuru stated seriously but a bit solemnly as well with a smirk.

"Thank to everyone. I don't know what I do without Shinji," Akihiko said very thankful.

"Heh. Well you got that right. But seriously... thanks," Shinjiro said playfully.

"It was a crazy experience. Like something out of a movie. Definitely won't be forgetting this anytime soon." Chie said enthusiastically.

"It was fun. I can't believe the criminal liked me that way. Guess I'm a really good witness," Yukiko joked as she laughed.

"Don't mind Yukiko's laughter. But yeah it was a blast to meet you all. Hopefully next time no food poisoning needs to get involved," Yosuke said embarrassed.

"I'm so glad to have met you all. When I get back into being an idol, I'm definitely writing a song about my time here!" Rise said with joy.

"It was interesting to put my skills to the test with all of you. Definitely glad to have solved a crime and to have made friendships I'll cherish," Naoto stated calmly.

"I'm so glad you guys all were here or else I be in jail right now. Thanks so much!" Kanji said with so much happiness.

The sound of an approaching bus soon approached the area. Both Yu and Makoto looked at each other simply and nodded. They shook hands with each other. Soon SEES, the Investigation Team, and Mr. Wright's group all got into a big group hug. Ms. Toriumi smiled for them while the other Gekkoukan and Yasogami High students had mixed reactions, since it was getting a bit cheesy for some. The bus finally arrived as a female teacher emerged from it.

"Are you Ms. Kashiwagi?" Ms. Toriumi asked. A brunette haired woman wore a pinkish purple office shirt that was a bit revealing, black office pants, a translation earpiece, two necklaces and black heels, smiled and nodded back.

"Yes. I am here to take the Yasogami High students. I'm also replacing Mr. Morooka so whoever had him for homeroom, now has me," she replied. Yu, Yosuke, Chie, and Yukiko looked each other with concerned eyes, as for some reason, they had a bad feeling about this. "Well I suppose it's time we all head on home back to Japan. Though I just got here. Oh well,"

Soon the students from both schools boarded their respective buses got on board and soon the buses slowly but surely started to leave. Mr. Wright and the others waved as both SEES and the Investigation Team sat at the back of their buses to wave back. Soon they were gone. But who knows? Maybe one day they would all be reunited for whatever reason possibly. For now, this tale is done, as life goes on for everyone.

THE END

So that's it guys! What did you think of the ending, or any part, or the story overall? I hope you guys enjoyed this crossover between the Persona and Ace Attorney series. Couple of very important notes.

1. So... I'm considering a sequel to this story. Maybe or maybe not. But if I do make a sequel, it won't be anytime soon and it'll be different from what's expected. What does that mean? Well we'll see if I even go through with a sequel, so that is something to not think about for a while.

2. I will continue to make stories for both series, crossover or not (as they are both series I enjoy and all). Though keep in mind, I have stories in mind for other series besides Persona and Ace Attorney as well.

3. So what should be my last important note... what's next exactly? Well I'll say this. It's going to be another crossover and it'll involve the Persona series but not Ace Attorney. What's it crossing over with? You guys are just going to have to wait and find out.

So yeah, that about wraps it up. Have anything to say, go for it. Otherwise good luck with anything and till the next story. Later!
