Prologue
September 8th 2034
The blood ran down her face like tears. It was cold. Dark. Lonely. Was this worth fighting for? She was alone. In the graveyard. Her friend, dead. Her only friend. Kurai picked up her gun, aiming it at her chest. Her hand shivering, as she was about to pull the trigger.
Suddenly, a pitched voice called her name. She turned around. It was Kyubey. The creator of magical girls. "Please, make a contract with me, and become a magical girl!" He said, his face not changing expression.
Tears streamed down Kurai's face. "I-I…" She looked at her dear friend. "I wish to revive Maika…" She said, her voice shivering in fear. "If you make a contract with me, I can grant you that wish." Kurai's face lit up. "R-really!?" Kyubey nodded. Kurai took one last look at Maika, before confirming her wish. "I want to revive Maika. I will never let anyone whom I love and care for die again. Ever!"
A black light came out of Kurai's chest, and with it, a black gem. Kurai held it tightly. "That's your soul gem. It's where your soul is. If anything happens to it, you'll die. If anything happens to you, the soul gem becomes a witch, your enemy." Kyubey said, still not changing his expression. Kurai nodded. She held the gun she held from Maika. It was an ordinary gun, but it had changed into a gun in black and silver. It was the gun of hope.
