Chapter 7: Ser and Prdzr!
"You will suffer in the pits of despair..." Ser screeched as she spread her wings up wide and unleashed dark orbs beside her wings and started shooting dark lasers upon them.
War, Death, and Sayaka dispersed as they barely escaped the fast-approaching lasers that punched a huge hole upon the floor.
Prdzr cackled as she disappeared in a puff of black smoke.
"Priority is Prdzr!" Death shot out.
Death, War, and Sayaka saw a glint of bright ruby light from the right back stage's entrance and recognised the glint from Prdr's spear. However, Prdzr swooped in from the left back stage's entrance instead!
Death and War managed to dashed away, but Sayaka could not perform her back flip in time and was slashed in the back by Prdzr's spear. A huge dark shockwave blasted Sayaka from her back and she was sent towards the theatre's entrance, but the Pale Rider managed to catch the blue hair magical girl with a purple ghostly hand that extended from his left hand.
"Thanks..." Sayaka winced.
"Don't thank me; there's no point in letting you die, right?" Death grunted.
"I will deal with Ser, good luck with Prdzr!" Sayaka nodded.
"We don't need any luck...we know Prdzr's patterns." War smirked.
As the blue hair magical girl leapt off to attack Ser, War and Death poised for another attack from Prdzr.
A glint from the left backstage's entrance allowed two dark portals to appear at the stage area at the same time. Death, who was closer to the portal, raised his Soul Destroyer and was poised to swing his huge scythe.
Prdzr cackled as she swiftly emerged from the right dark portal and prepared a powerful lunge towards the Red Rider, who was having his back facing towards it. War, however, gave a small smirk, swiftly turned around while charging up his Tremor Gauntlet. The Liar's brainwashed ultimate form gasped in horror but was too late to dodge a huge slam upon her skull, courtesy War's Tremor Gauntlets!
Prdzr went sailing back towards the left dark portal, but Death swiftly turned around teleported in a swift blur towards Prdzr, plunged the dual Soul Destroyers into the Liar's body, dragged the dual possessed scythes down and inflicted a deep gash through her entire body!
The Liar's eyes widened in shock as blood caked her body and wings. Despite using her ability to rebuilt cells so that she could stitch her gaping wounds, Prdzr still clutched upon her bleeding wound with widened eyes; unable to believe what had happened.
"You stupid fool...I cannot believe this will happen! AGAIN!" Prdzr screamed as she disappeared into a black smoke once more.
Two big, dark portals appeared from the ceiling and on the floor. Death and War poised themselves for another round of counterattack and swiftly saw a ruby glint upon the ceiling portal.
Death and War nodded as the Pale Rider did an acrobatic flip to move away while the Red Rider drove his Chaoseater into the ground and unleashed his Blade Geyser.
A fountain of blood spilled out of the portal as Prdzr was thrown out of the bottom dark portal and sent plummeting towards the ground by Death's overhead cleave attack. The Pale Rider then impale the familiar with the tip of his merged Soul Destroyer, spun his victim for a round, and released her like a baseball player hitting upon a magnificent home run.
War, who was several feet in front of Death when he did the home run attack, hammered both of his gauntlets onto Prdzr's chest. The resulting impact sent the familiar of Liars crashing to the floor and bounced back up, which War duly replied with a huge smack across her body and sending her flying towards the entrance's door!
Death gave the Red Rider the thumb up while both Riders looked at the bloodied Prdzr.
"YOU NUMBSKULLS!" Prdzr roared as she summoned six portals, rearranged into a hexagonal formation.
"You can go through two, what about SIX?!" Prdzr cackled.
Disappearing into the portals again, three glints appeared at front left vertices, then at the back right vertices, and at the middle left vertices.
Death looked at War and gave a firm nod once more; having known Prdzr's philosophies on lies, she would head out through the portal directly opposing to the portal where the gleam shone. The Red Rider placed both her gauntlets close, concentrated a large amount of Chaos upon his palms, and unleashed six green serpents coated with toxic aura around its bodies. War had bought this skill - Affliction - from the Demon Merchant Vulgrim after defeating the Griever back in his journey to prove his own innocence.
The Red Rider commanded the toxic serpents to go into the front right vertices. Prdzr soon flew out of the portal, screeching in extreme pain as the serpents' corrosive bites rot her existing wounds and even melted parts of her reptilian-like armor.
"Now's my turn!" Death gathered a huge amount of Wrath and arcane magic from his body and channelled it into both his palms and his dual Soul Destroyers. The Pale Rider then stomped his right foot on the ground, released massive amounts of white skeleton-shaped souls, and commanded them to rush into the back left portal.
Prdzr went screaming out of the back left portal, but not without unleashing a huge arc slash that sent out a large sonicboom.
Death managed to flip away from the sonicboom while War activated his Stoneskin and punched the floor with his Tremor Gauntlet, creating a powerful shockwave that neutralized the Void Sonicboom altogether.
Prdzr managed to zip out of the middle right portal and deliver a high-speed spinning slash, but the next thing she noticed was twenty glowing ghouls leaping onto her and exploding right in front of her face. The strong explosion sent the Liar Familiar straight towards a wall. War quickly dashed towards Prdzr, leapt up to her, brandished his Chaoseater, and attempted to impale the familiar.
The Liar, however, managed to disappear in a bout of smoke and appeared behind the Red Rider in an attempt to strike him with her Void Spear. War's Choaseater was implanted upon the wall instead of Prdzr.
The Red Rider smirked and his eyes glowed as he unleashed a Blade Geyser from the wall. Prdzr's eyes widened in horror as the blade crystals impaled her and sent her flying back, where Death was waiting for her with a huge sweeping slash across her back!
The Pale Rider unleashed a huge sonicboom towards Prdzr, dashed towards her, unleashed a Twin Humanities triple slash, merged his dual Soul Destroyers by both of its hilts, swing it around him like a buzzsaw circle, launched Prdzr in the air with an uppercut, grabbed the familiar with Deathgrip, and slammed her hard on the ground.
The Pale Rider than took the weakened Prdzr like a ragdoll, threw it to the Red Rider, who unleashed a sweeping slash towards the fast approaching familiar. The Liar disappeared in a puff of smoke and attempted to strike her from behind with a powerful Lancer Lunge, but War surprised Prdzr by turning behind as a means of continuing his sweeping slash's arc and striking her upon her chest!
The Red Rider quickly launched Prdzr into the air and seared her flesh with several quick, yet devastating mid-air slashes with the Chaoseater, ending with a powerful flipsaw and a powerful slam upon Prdzr's skull. The Chaoseater's impact was so strong that it created a huge dent upon Prdzr's contact on the ground.
Prdzr quickly struggled to get up; her breathing ragged with rage at her impossibility to land a serious hit at War and Death despite all of her tricks to deceive them by the portals.
"Impossible...both of you...both of you have an impeccable amount of trust between each other! You don't even have to speak out your plans...HOW?!" Prdzr roared.
"Simple, Prdzr...we don't believe in your lies. We just believe on our own instinct and trust each other. Is that so ball-bustingly hard for you to understand, that you have to all mad just to find out what makes our teamwork tick?" Death taunted.
"As one of Homucifer's henchwomen possessed by the Void...we expected so much more; yet it's your lie that makes your world and your fight ironically boring in the end - might as well finish it now." War frowned as attempted to deliver the final blow towards a lying Prdzr, but the Liar screeched and disappeared into the dark portals.
War and Death stood with their backs against each other, anticipating the Prdzr's desperation attack - rapid blinking of lights from the six vertices of the hexagonal formation. With each blink, however, Prdzr's attack was countered by either War or Death, who knew the exact location of where the Liar Familiar would be - the exact opposite of where the light had previously blinked before the attack commenced...
With Prdzr's lance blinking in the top right vertices, Death leapt away from Prdzr's lunge as the Red Rider swiftly responded with a charged Harpoon Tackle - a devastating charged stab that impaled the Liar familar's chest, through her lungs, and even past her spine. Blood and the goo-like Void spilled out from Prdzr's guts and belly as she coughed and shook her head in disbelief.
"This is...This is impossible...I thought my plan of deceiving you was...was perfect..." Prdzr spoke in a rasped voice.
"You want to know why, Prdzr? Because you kept cooking up lies...You lied to yourself that by repeatedly attacking us with your same shctick, you will deceive us still..." Death grunted.
"By being the embodiment of liars, deceit, and the exact opposite...you ironically become way too predictable. In the end, what you did...is deceiving your biggest ally - yourself..." War held Prdzr by her head, charged up his Tremor Gauntlet, and crushed the Liar's skull into a bloody paste.
The Red Rider flung the corpse away and approached the Pale Rider with a shrug. Death, however, crossed his hands and studied the inert pool of Void slowly evaporating into thin air.
"Someone or something must have created the Void." Death concluded.
"I thought Kyubey said that it's the absence of the Goddess of Hope - Godoka - balancing Darkness that caused it to happen." War wondered.
"That is just a concept. Similar to how Lilith used her dark magic to bring the concept of Hate to life as Corruption, someone must have taken advantage of Godoka's absenc and bring that concept - a world without the Goddess of Hope to balance out the Darkness - to life." Death explained.
"You're right...The Void can't have sprung out of nowhere; it's the absence light balancing the dark - a concept. For the concept to be given life, someone must have brought it to Earth...but who?" War wondered.
Kyubey scrawled out of her hiding place and looked around the bloody battlefield that was the amphitheatre.
War and Death stopped their conversation. "We can discuss this later." Death replied. "For now, just know that the Void is a concept brought to life."
The Red Rider nodded just as Kyubey approached the two Horsemen and wondering what were they talking about.
"Nothing else, just musing about how predictable Prdzr's lies become; she is the embodiment of lies, of course." Death shrugged.
"Well yeesh...that was anti-climatic. Then again, you are Death and you are War; where you go, everyone fears you." Kyubey looked on in amusement.
"Mmmm...I was expecting more out of some boring liar. As her names suggest, guess her abilities in lying about which position she would attack made her, ironically, predictable. Still, at least we got the job done." Death crossed his arms.
"I have to applaud you both for the amount of trust you placed in each other...I know you're brothers and all but...damn." Kyubey spoke in amazement.
"We have millions of years in which we can build our trust upon. We're not going to let some petty, predictable lies break our bonds; not now, not ever." Death arrogantly replied.
"Still, the Voids possessing Prdzr is an importance to how strong the former has become..." Kyubey replied.
"The Voids...they are spreading fast and we need to make haste. Sayaka is fighting Ser and the latter's defeat is crucial for the Fragment; let's make progress." War nodded.
Meanwhile...at the same time.
"Grrrkkk!" Sayaka winced as she managed to hold her ground despite a huge dark shockwave colliding with her blade.
Sayaka and Ser fought against each other, with neither of them letting up despite exchanging numerous amounts of sword strokes and magical blasts against each other.
Ser remained levitating above the ruined stairways that connected itself to the amphitheatre's hall, with four Dark Orbs surrounding her.
"Why don't you just give in, you stubborn fool...Your friends, your loved ones, and everything that stand to protect and treasure will soon be consumed by the Void. Nothing can escape us...not even death itself." Sadsack gloomily approached.
"What makes you think I will bow to your idiocy that easily, eh?" Sayaka winced.
"Remember? I am part of Homucifer's familiar...I can see what Homura is seeing. Homura knew, before Madoka's ascension to Godoka, that you became a witch - Oktavia - because of your broken relationship with Kyosuke...You know it, don't you?" Sadsack spoke. "Now, in Homucifer's creation, no one, not even your friends and your loved ones, believed your statements about Homura becoming a devil...How then, can you go on without anyone who can believe in you?"
Sayaka stood up and gave a small grin upon her face.
"Please...do you honestly think that I am going to succumb to my past anymore? I have told Madoka the truth; I have absolutely no regret over my decisions. Even after I am revived in Homucifer's creation, I still hold no regrets over my own beliefs - all I just want is to see Kyosuke achieving his dream and be happy with the ones that he loved!" Sayaka shot out.
"Then what about Kyoko Sakura? She could not believe you when you said that Homura had become the Devil. When even your next closest friend and possible lover could not trust you...what are the odds of you even surviving in this god forsaken world?!" Ser gave a wistful laugh.
"SO what?" Sayaka grinned.
"What?" Ser's eyes raised in confusion.
"Homucifer's magic made it so...and yes, no one in this world might believe me, but at least I have the trust of the two Horsemen of the Apocalypse and their respect for Humanity! That's more than enough for me!" Sayaka shot back.
"War and Death...they both are nothing but the fouls of Humanity...In reality, they will bring nothing but pain, something that Homucifer wished to eliminate completely! How can you trust someone whose main purpose...is to end you?" Ser replied and smirked.
"What comes after War...comes Death. Yeah, you're right; War and Death did indeed go hand in hand. Both of them are a means to an end, sure! You're right if you say that I do detest them, despise them, and even fear those concepts in the beginning; I really do..."
Death, War, and Kyubei burst through the amphitheatre's entrance and overheard the conversation between Ser and Sayaka.
"But now that I think about it...both of them - War and Death - are necessary in life!" Sayaka frowned.
War and Death frowned. "What?"
"War doesn't mean bloodshed between people! Instead, it can be a symbol of us humans fighting for our beliefs and for the peace that we have ever so wanted! In our everyday lives, we are constantly fighting an everlasting war - a fight to live a life without regrets! I am a warrior of Justice and so I fight for the truth - and beliefs - of all people and my own, so that they may live a life without any sort of regrets at all!"
Sayaka continued, "Death? Yeah, sure...I do fear him once. Everyone does, ain't we all? But when I died for the first time before my revival in Homucifer's creation, I realised that Death can actually be a peaceful thing...At least I know I can be happy seeing Kyousuke living a life without regret and achieving his dream - a dream of playing his violin without my fate interfering with him! Just remembering that feeling of happiness upon seeing Kyousuke achieving his dream in front of so many people is just enough for me to gain my eternal rest, the peace I have so wanted! When any magical girl dies, their souls will be purified and be sent to a place where they can finally rest in peace - that is a life lived well; a death without regret - eternal rest worth fighting for!"
Death and War nodded their heads upon hearing Sayaka's monologue; their respect for Humanity grew even more on that very day.
"Humans...seem part of Humanity lies in their resilience. So that's another element of Humanity." War simpered.
"I still don't get it though...why would she not be afraid of being dead? Not that I want her to but...hmmm..." Death thought.
"So you and your own Sadsack talk can go to hell for all I care!" Sayaka brandished her blade. The Pale Rider and the Red Rider jumped in to help Sayaka.
"We ain't going to collect the remaining six pieces without you around, are we?" Death replied.
"Death, War...you...you overheard it?" Sayaka raised her eyebrows.
"Why don't we finish the fight first? We can gloss about your resilience later; there's a sadsack that I will love to make a sock out of!" Death transformed into his Reaper Form and wielded his Harvestor.
"Ser, you won't like our new found respect for Humanity even before we meet up with Sayaka..." War roared and transformed into his Chaos Form.
Ser's eyes glowed purple as her aura formed a shape of a disfigured death phoenix - the Hraesvelgr.
"So even my negativity will not affect you...then you might as well be crush by the very element of nothingness itself!" Ser summoned a murder of void phoenix-like projectiles and unleashed it upon the trio.
Chaos Form War and Reaper Form Death sliced through the murder of projectiles handily, enabling Sayaka to clear a room and unleashed flurries of slashes at a shocked Ser. Each slashes from Sayaka's blade brought forth highly pressurized water blades that sliced through the sinews of the defenseless Sadsack familiar.
Just as Sayaka was about to kick Ser in the chest, the latter smirked, disappeared in a mist of black mist while appearing behind the former, and ready to strike Sayaka with a massive Void Slash.
Reaper Form Death quickly responded with a swift Teleport Slash upon Ser's back, sending the familiar into a painful frenzy as a cage of ice soon froze her temporarily; Death's Harvestor was of the Ice Element as it borrowed its elemental nature from the possessed scythe Soul Destroyer.
With streams of water surrounding her feet, Sayaka leapt forth, descended down upon the cage of ice with huge force, collided her foot upon the ice cage that shattered and damaged Ser, and allowed the streaming jets of water to blast the Sadsack Familiar towards War's Chaos Form. The balrog swiftly unleashed a huge cleave upon Ser's back and sending the latter crashing down the floor, creating a large crater as a result.
Ser unleashed a huge blast to keep the trio off while she created a Void Portal and disappeared in it. Three portals soon materialized out of thin air and three Sers soon emerged out of the portals!
"Guess which one of us is which!" the trio Sers soon rose up in the air, spun around in a turntable formation, and gathered huge Void Energy to unleash big spheres of Void Bombs.
War's Chaos Form, however, dispensed with the pleasantries and charged on through to ignite the air with his scorching Neo-Chaoseater. War's huge arc slashes struck the three Sers with no problems, dispersing the two easily and scorching the real Ser's body with Hellfire. The Chaos Form then delivered three slashes across Ser's body, sending her crashing towards one of the walls several meters away.
Sayaka's eyes widened as she felt tremors rippling through the ground and witnessed Several Void Scarabs burrowing themselves out from the ground. The blue magical girl twirled around and unleashed a large water tornado slash that kept the leaping Void Scarabs off from her.
Reaper Form Death threw his Harvestor, commanded it to spin around him, and unleashed a huge Reaper Tornado that ripped through the Scarabs's exoskeletons. The Reaper then proceeded to tear the remaining Scarabs on his side with large swings from his Harvestor, creating large arc slashes that sliced through and tore them inside out like a stack of soft, silky papers.
Chaos Form War plunged his Neo-Chaoseater on the ground and unleashed an enormous Blade Geyser attack; multiple giant Neo-Chaoseater Crystals erupted from the ground and slashed through the Void Scarabs' bodies. The balrog then unleashed several large slashes that sliced through more of the Scarabs' exoskeletons.
Ser appeared and attempted an overhead strike at Sayaka, but the blue hair magical girl quickly locked the Sadsack into a deadlock with a swift counterattack via huge streams of water jets from her blade.
"Why don't you just die already, you sack of useless piece of crap that no one in this world would have the nerve to believe you!" Ser screamed.
"I may sound cheesy here, but you do know that what did not kill me will make me stronger, yes?" Sayaka grinned as she forcefully broke the tiebreaker with a huge push.
"What?" Ser's eyes widened.
"They might not believe me, I will make them see the truth by restoring Godoka's powers and restoring the world that Godoka and everyone have always wanted it to be - a selfless world where magical girls and humans can support one another in a world where hope thrives over despair, a world where evils like you will not reign supreme!"
"Hydro Balisong!"
Sayaka dashed towards a surprised Ser, took out her blade, and unleashed numerous streams of highly pressurized water towers with quickness and grace. Sayaka waved her blades while she danced like numerous butterflies on the winds; the slashes swept through the enemy with relentless velocity and swift grace. The blue hair girl ended her attack with a huge slice across her chest.
"Death! War! NOW!"
Sayaka quickly leapt out of the way just as Reaper Form Death and Chaos Form War charged towards Ser and piled on their slashes upon the Sadsack Familiar.
Chaos Form War made a clean slice across Ser with a sweeping slash; while Death ended Ser's life by plunging his Harvestor on the latter's upper torso and tore it apart.
Ser's screams echoed throughout the hallways as the gooey Void splurged from her ripped body and slowly evaporated into the thin air.
"You lots...you lots will not escape the very essence of despair itself...In the end, there shall be nothing but Chaos and Nothingness in the world we call the Void!" Ser's last words echoed throughout the hallway as it slowly died off.
War, Death, Kyubey, and Sayaka then ran towards the Amphitheatre upon hearing a pulsating sound echoing through the hallways. Madoka's second goddess fragment gave off a soft glow as it descended from the ceiling and landed gracefully upon War's Tremor Gauntlet.
Both War and Death's eyes relaxed slightly; although they could not put a hand on why, they could feel a certain warmth and comfort from the fragment of Hope itself.
Upon giving Kyubey the second shard, the foursome shielded their eyes as a flash of light obstructed their sight and they found themselves out of the Abyssal Subway within no times flat.
"I assume that subway, labyrinth, and the amphitheatre that we just fought in must be connected to one another, somehow." Death shrugged.
"Whatever the case is, a fragment is a fragment. Homucifer will most likely know that two more familiar of hers went MIA - Missing In Action - and we have to be quick. The Void will still be hot on our heels as they are capable of possessing Homucifer's minions just to destroy us; there's not much time" Sayaka frowned in worry.
Before anyone can congratulate one another for a job well done, a soft white glow descended from the skies. As it faded, a white Gem landed upon Death's skeletal gauntlets. Sayaka's eyes flashed with recognition as soon as she gazed upon the white gem.
"That's...that's Nagisa Momoe's Soul Gem! That's her source of power!" Sayaka exclaimed.
"Nagisa who? You mean to say she's a magical girl too?" Death wondered.
"Nagisa Momoe...she's one of Godoka's two most trusted angels - the other being me - before Homucifer's creation. Given that we have defeated both Ser and Prdzr to receive both the 2nd Goddess Fragment and Nagisa's source of power, we have to hurry quickly!" Sayaka shot out.
"What for?" War wondered.
"When Homucifer recreated this world, she suppressed Nagisa's memories of being a magical girl and her powers. Since I'm resistant to Homucifer's magic thanks to my willpower at being an embodiment of Justice, I know that Homucifer had somehow sealed Nagisa's powers into anyone of the familiars' ultimate form. We need Nagisa if we ever needed more reinforcements to restore Godoka's powers!" Sayaka explained.
"I take it that since Prdzr and Ser were destroyed, that Homucifer will track Nagisa down and..." Death frowned.
"Yes...somehow end her life and then somehow make an excuse that she's gone mad. With her mind-alteration ability, Homucifer can just make anyone believe that it is possible and even force them to go on with their daily lives without damnations!" Sayaka nodded. "Nagisa represents the embodiment of Innocence in Godoka's terms - if she dies and her powers die with her, one of the elements of Humanity will be gone and we are as well as screwed up the arse!"
"Alright...we will help you. But promise me one thing." Death frowned, determined to save one of Humanity's main elements.
"Anything to keep Nagisa safe..." Sayaka nodded.
"Come up with an answer as to why you are not afraid of me...I mean, I am Death, shouldn't you fear me besides the cliché reasoning of 'I have met death before, and I can face it again'? I expect a better answer than that and I believe you can give me one. After all...I am still learning about Humanity's good quality too." Death replied.
Sayaka nodded; she knew she had it coming since Death had overheard her rebuttal against Ser minutes ago.
"War...bring both Kyubey and Sayaka over to the next location where the third fragment resides. If you can, kill the guardians guarding it." Death instructed.
"But..." the Red Rider protested.
Death patted his right hand on War's left shoulder. "You are from the other dimension and so your aura is capable of interfering with Homucifer's detection magic as Sayaka explained hours ago. You need to be around so that Homucifer won't be able to track you three that easily while I will bring Nagisa back in one piece."
War looked down, gave a short sigh, and gave a firm - but confident - nod. "Be careful, brother."
Death nodded, summoned his Despair, and rode off as Nagisa's Soul Gem directed.
"Can he keep off Homucifer, or at least...survive her? Death still needs Godoka's revival to gain the extra edge." Sayaka worryingly wondered.
"Death dealt worse...he will live. I trust him." War gave a confident smile.
Mitakahara
"Wake up...Nagisa..."
The ten years old girl with white hair, light brown eyes and small nose mumbled a few words as she stirred in her bed.
"Wake up...Nagisa...I need your help."
Nagisa yawned and woke up from her sweet sleep, her eyes still drowsy from the deep sleep that she took.
"W...Who...Who called me...?" Nagisa wondered groggily.
The warm cheese's fragrance wafted in through Nagisa's bedroom windows and she soon became slightly more active; her eyes began to pick themselves up and her pulses quickened - being a big lover of cheese and all. Her eyes darkened with temptations, however, as a small clap could be heard through the silent night's air.
Nagisa got down the stairs while staring blankly into the space. With her eyes darkened, she headed down the stairs, managed to climb her way out of the windows, and attempted to cross the road that was beside her home - where the smell of cheese wafted.
Suddenly, a huge truck was speeding upon the same road that Nagisa was crossing. The driver attempted to stop his truck upon seeing Nagisa crossing the road illegally, but the truck was still advancing even after the brakes was applied; the truck was moving way too fast by its own standards.
Before anyone could react, however, a huge neigh pierced the quiet air as a swift blur uprooted the truck with no effort at all and managed to tuck Nagisa into safety by the pedestrian pavement.
The huge honking and the bang caused by the truck's flip snapped Nagisa out of her trance state as she rubbed her eyes and saw a skeleton-mask figure placing her down to safety.
"W...Who are you?" Nagisa stammered, feeling a chill down her spine at the sight of the ominous figure.
The ominous figure's eyes burrowed deep with a calm sense of anger; a tranquil fury that stirred the dead leaves upon the floors and the trees that were ruffling upon the air. A clap could be heard once as a voice commanded for the people living in the residential area to forget what had happened.
"Impossible...I never expect you, of all people, to appear..." Homucifer descended from the skies, spreading her black wings in all her glory.
The ominous figure grunted without hesitation and took out a gem with a pale texture similar to Nagisa's hair.
"So...you...you...of all people...to foil my plans? And I thought that War was the one..." Homucifer attempted to attack the ominous figure, but the latter's eyes glowed and Homucifer was taken by a surprise arcane burst from the figure's aura.
"As Nephilim, hybrids of Angels and Demons, protectors of the Balance, and protectors of innocent beings with my newfound respect to them...I will stop you, Homucifer."
The figure quickly threw the Soul Gem as it shot towards Nagisa's chest - before the Devil could pick herself up - filling her with a sudden memory and magic rush as her body glowed brightly.
"W...What's happening to me?!" Nagisa exclaimed as she gave a painful cry upon the energies reaching its peak. A burst of white light pulsated through the town, but no one seemed to care thanks to Homucifer's mind-alteration magic.
As Nagisa landed on both of legs, her magical girl form returned, her eyes widened upon setting her eyes on Homucifer's Devil Form, realising what had happened to Homura.
"What is this? Did Homura-sempai become a Devil upon sealing Godoka's power? What happened?" Nagisa's eyes widened in shock and terror; her eyes shrunk with fear as her eyes gazed upon the ominous figure and shivered.
For it does not take an idiot to know the foreboding figure...the skeleton mask figure...that was Death.
So, do you enjoy it so far? I hope you do! :D
I know I do! I love creating fics :)
