The Keeper of Witch Paradise

Chapter 1: Encounter

The Holy Quintet were scaling Mitakihara City in search of a witch. It was a nice and warm summer evening. There was still a blue tinge present in the night sky. The moon was a waxing crescent, scaling in the east of Mitakihara City. Everything was peaceful, except for the witches roaming around the city. Mami Tomoe's soul glowed brightly up ahead of the group. They were nearing the witch.

"What the hell Mami," said Kyoko abruptly," we've been scaling this city for a thousand years, and we haven't even found this stupid witch."

"Well I'm sorry if I'm not the expert at witch hunting. Why don't you shut up and be quiet for just one minute." Said Mami rather calmly, considering her state of confusion on the witch's location.

"Girls, girls, you're both beautiful. Now, could you both stop complaining, the witch is up ahead." Interrupted Sayaka.

"The witch is up ahead! Let's move forward!" command Mami. The all fell to the top of an abandoned warehouse near the Mitakihara Academy. They all stepped inside into a rotting warehouse full of rusting metal machinery ling forgotten.

"This place is rank!" said Kyoko through a plugged nose.

"It may be, but it is a perfect place for a witch." Added Homura.

"The witch's barrier entrance is over to the right." Spoke Madoka. The all leapt over to a ledge. Mami pulled out her soul gem and opened the barrier to the witch.

"I know that this witch is powerful because of her rogue familiars. We need to be on our feet at all times. We'll be performing attack Alpha Sigma Epsilon Puella Two. Everyone got the procedure? Good, move out!" ordered Mami as they entered the barrier.

The barrier was definitely different than from what other barriers were like. It was a simple concert hall that was filled with familiars. Once the presence of a puella magi got to them, they attacked with all their might.

"Kyoko and I will handle the familiars. Madoka, Homura, and Sayaka, go defeat the witch. We'll meet you in a sec." shouted Mami over her grunts.

"Right!" said Madoka. The three sped off into the curtains of the concert hall's stage, armed and ready to defeat the witch.

"We need to destroy this witch immediately. I have places to be and things to do." Shouted Sayaka. The curtains then opened up to reveal the witch. A giant woman with a ballerina tutu, no face, and her head split in half. She was continuously spinning, and runes appeared, reading "Deidre."

"Homura, you're up." Said Madoka.

"R-right." Answered Homura as she stopped time. Madoka began to shoot thousands of magic arrows while Sayaka began throwing thousands of swords at the witch. Homura began time, and the attacks hit Deidre at all sides.

"All right, we killed it!" cheered Sayaka.

"Great job everybody!" said Madoka excitedly.

"Wait, what's going on with the witch?" asked Homura nervously. The witch was swirling into a black spiral towards a boy on the far side of the dissipating witch. The barrier disappeared, and the holy quintet, confronting the boy, began questioning.

"Who are you?" asked Madoka.

"I'm Hikaru O'Conner." Said the boy. He was wearing a t-shirt with a light blue flight jacket, rainbow jeans, and pilot goggles. He was caring a light blue a backpack that light up on the seams. The boy himself had light skin, green hair, and was roughly the size of Kyoko.

"What the hell was with all the witch swirling?" asked Sayaka impatiently.

"I captured the witch. Well I have to go. Mom's making spaghetti?" said Hikaru. He then sped off into the night, leaving the Holy Quintet befuddled.

Sorry that the story is so short. It was more of an introductory chapter than a real one. The rest will be much longer though

Anyway, see you next time.
