There was a gust of wind and a small shockwave from around Morgana. Suddenly, Zorro appeared in all his glory, swiping his rapier through the air in a slick movement.
"Let's go, Zorro! Lunge!" Morgana yelled before breaking into a fast sprint and jumping at the Shadow, swinging his claws. He barely scratched it, but Zorro had landed a clean lunge with his rapier, knocking it back.
The Shadow groaned in pain before growling and roaring again. It seemed to have given up on talking and only wanted to fight. It glared at Morgana and began to circle around him, looking for an opening.
Morgana had been caught by an attack he didn't see and was bleeding down his side. It hurt, but it wouldn't stop him.
"Zorro! Dia!"
The smell of disinfectant and aromatic herbs filled the area, and the cut down Morgana's side slowly stitched together. Morgana strafed while keeping an eye on the Shadow. It was weak, but he was limited in reality as well.
"Curse my form!" he furiously yelled.

The sight was stunning to the observing pair.
Yoruichi was in complete shock. Her mouth was hanging open as she stared at the cat before looking at Urahara, who had a massive grin and whose body was shaking.
"Kisuke, what the hell is that? That's nothing like a normal spiritual attack!"
Urahara broke into the happiest laughter he had in years.
"It was right! It was real! A Persona!"
He smiled widely and ignored Yoruichi's questions, focusing on the Hollow and the mysterious cat-like being.

The Hollow charged at Morgana, seemingly seeing him as a true threat. It decided to go all out.
Morgana barely rolled under the swipe, claws scraping against the pavement as he forced himself back onto his feet. His side still burned, even after Dia. Healing helped, but pain was pain, and this body was small.
He gritted his teeth in frustration.
"Zorro! Garu!"
A burst of wind tore through the street, slamming into the Hollow and forcing it back several steps. Its claws dug into the asphalt as it roared, mask twitching like it wanted to crack open.
"STRONG SOULLLLLL!" it roared in delight before slamming its feet down, causing a large pothole to appear in the road.
"How is this going to stay hidden now, asshole?!" Morgana growled.
The Hollow appeared in front of him before he knew it. It moved way too quickly.
Luckily, Morgana had called out to Zorro as soon as he felt something approaching.
Zorro's rapier stabbed through the mask, causing the Shadow to explode. A wisp of light drifted up before fading away.

Urahara started laughing harder.
"He even cleansed the spirit! Amazing! Truly amazing!"
"Kisuke, that isn't possible. That cat didn't use spiritual pressure at all."
Urahara wiped his eyes and looked at Yoruichi with a huge smile.
"Oh, my friend, you have no idea how happy I am. We truly have a chance now."

Morgana got to Leblanc swiftly and jumped across the roofs into the open window of the loft. He immediately crashed into the ground when he entered, scaring Ren deeply. His fur was matted with blood, and he was seemingly exhausted.
"Joker, I'm really dirty," he said with a chuckle.
