CHAPTER 9: Trouble On The Wires- Patricia, The School Witch
Lord Fearbey said, "So, you Watchers have returned to see us defeat a witch once again, I presume. Well, I'm certain that whatever Treybey has planned is going to be rather thrilling. Pity we Purifacators can't take part in it, as we lack any sort of weapon. But those magical girls we summon? They're excellent! Now, let's remind ourself a of what shenanigans we got into last time..."
Lord Fearbey's cauldron displayed images of the fight with Urhmann, and he said, "Now, Urhmann is a rather drab witch when you think about it. It's just a headless dog. Even the most pathetic and useless Incubator could come up with a better one. Regardless, we battled the worthless animal like no one else could. Her fate was sealed when those Mew Mews showed up and their leader, Ichigo Momomiya, blasted it with that bell she's always got on her. So, Urhmann has been purified now, and I think it's for the better. She looks much better as a girl anyway.
The Purifactor armed with a cutlass, named Raptbey, snarled, "I think it be time to see just what those scallawags have got in store, yer Lordship!"
Lord Fearbey responded, "Yes, Raptbey, it's time to see who Treybey and the Powers That Be are planning to battle next. Come on then, Watchers, let's go!"
The Magical Girls had been assembled in Treybey's antechamber.
Treybey told them,, "Listen well. Your next target is the Class Representative Witch, Patricia. She's going to try to hit you with a lot of chairs when she's above you. And her minions, the Mathieus, will keep you on your toes. Plus, you're fighting on threads and telephone wires in the sky, so try not to fall off. Good luck!"
They were then teleported into Patricia's barrier, which was, as Treybey said, a series of clotheslines and telephone wires in the sky.
"I bet this Patricia creep will look like a nightmare." Isoshi mentioned.
Just then, a being that looked like a schoolgirl appeared. It had no head, and it also had a pair of extra arms. The most horrifying part was that it had a third pair of arms where it's legs should be. It was clinging onto the clotheslines.
"That's her! Let's get her, girls!" Sailor Moon shouted.
The Magical Girls began attacking Patricia as she moved from line to line.
"Do you miserable students really think you can stop me? ME? You'll regret this!" Patricia roared.
As she leapt above them, she sent a barrage of chairs from under her skirt, hitting the Magical Girls.
The Mathieus then appeared. They looked to be schoolchildren without the top halves of their bodies, and they wore ice skates as well.
They began skating towards the Magical girls, forcing them to jump to other lines.
Lord Fearbey saw that things were not going so well and that, once again, assistance was required.
He exclaimed, "Spellcasting: C-L-O-T-H-E-S!"
With this, seven people emerged from a portal, lead by two girls who... were rather scandalously clothed and had much of their bodies exposed.
Treybey shouted, "Oh, my! Is that really your idea of magical girls, Lord Fearbey? Just look at what their leaders are wearing! It's too skimpy for my taste!"
Lord Fearbey replied with, "Shut up, Treybey! While Ryuko and her sister Satsuki are scantily clad indeed, that's supposed to be the point! Plus, they're excellent at fighting, so are you going to complain? Further, they've brought along the hilarious Mako and Satsuki's four lieutenants. That should be enough to satisfy you!"
Ryuko exclaimed, "Alright, I have no idea where the hell I am, but if it's a fight you creeps want, I'll gladly provide!"
Satsuki grumbled, "It would seem as if my aid is required in this bizarre place."
The seven characters began attacking the Mathieus, causing the Mathieus to fall to lower lines.
Treybey was looking in both shock and disgust at the fighting, and decided to summon another Magical Girl to fight Patricia.
He exclaimed, "Spellcasting: C-A-N-N-O-N!"
Another portal opened up and a girl wearing an open coat, a bra and shorts, and wielding a massive blaster in one of her hands, landed on one of the telephone wires.
Treybey exclaimed, "Now here's a magical girl who might be a little scantily clad, but at least she's not as bad as those two that Lord Fearbey summoned! Additionally, she has spent her entire life fighting against her rivals, and she has gotten much better at it! I give you Black Rock Shooter in all her glory!"
Black Rock Shooter pointed her blaster at Patricia and fired, sending Patricia crashing down to the telephone wires beside her.
"Ooohhhh... That hurt. That really hurt. I hope you get detention for that..." Patricia groaned.
Tone and Sailor Mars began assaulting Patricia with a barrage of fireballs and sword swipes, weakening her enough to be purifed.
Seinaru and Elsa Maria then leapt down and landed beside Patricia.
They chanted, "Patricia, Magical Girl Of Intellegence! With this spell, I destroy the shell of corruption and grief placed upon you and release the girl within! Awaken, Patricia! Spellcasting: P-U-R-I-F-Y!"
Patricia gasped as she was engulfed by the ensuing sphere of light, screaming, "How could this happen to me? I won't go out like this! Arrrgh!"
Seinaru and Elsa Maria stepped back and watched as Patricia was turned back into a human.
She looked simple in appearance, wearing only a black school uniform without shoes and red glasses that suited her appearence nicely. She had short black hair as well.
"It's all coming back to me now... I remember everything, how Kyubey left me lying there as I begged for it to stop... I never wanted to be a witch. I'm sorry..." Patricia cried.
As she wept, she released a shockwave that turned all the Mathieus into acutal school children.
"Mistress, do not fear. We have finally gained sentience and are no longer things that are controlled by you." They spoke in union.
"What? You're normal humans now? I don't believe it! Friends at last!" She exclaimed, hugging one of them.
"See, Elsa Maria? All Patricia ever wanted was to have a happy life with friends she could rely on to support her." Seinaru mused.
"I understand that. She seems as gentle as can be when comforted. That's the thing with witches- they're actually nice and friendly when they're purified by you."
The barrier soon began collapsing, and everyone, including Patricia and the Mathieus, were teleported back to the Purifactors Castle.
Meanwhile, in Kyubey's Dimension...
Patricia's pipe had shattered and her entropy was being transported back to her, out of Kyubey's grasp.
"Patricia has fallen, too. I cannot believe this. I am losing many witches and much entropy as well. This is a nightmare to my race."
Just then, a portal opened up and a girl with blonde hair wearing a small pink dress and a purple eyepatch emerged from it.
"Hey, Lady Ragyo! This place looks like it's a lot of fun and a nice place for our operations!" The girl, named Nui, called out.
A woman with hair that had rainbow undertones wearing white emerged from the portal.
"I see. This will be an excellent staging ground for our schemes." The woman, known as Ragyo, spoke with a sinister smile.
Another portal opened up and a girl wearing a small black dress and glasses wielding a scythe emerged.
"Hmmmm... I cannot tell where this is. But I assure you, we can plan to defeat Black Rock Shooter from this place." The girl, named Dead Master, cackled.
Three more girls emerged from the same portal- a girl with wheels on her legs named Chariot, a girl with devil horns named Black Gold Saw, and a girl with a pair of mechanical arms named Strength.
"So, we have more guests. Would you like to join our forces?" Deep Blue asked them.
"Of course. It's anything to stop Black Rock Shooter from defeating us!" Chariot replied.
"And we'll join in, too. It's sure to be a lot of fun!" Nui added, jumping up and down.
Back at Purifacators Castle, Patricia's soul gem had been shattered and her soul had been returned.
"Now I feel rejuvenated and ready to fight again! My strength has returned to me!" Patricia screamed out in joy.
Lord Fearbey said, "There you go, Watchers, we've turned another one of those horrible witches back into a magical girl! We've just about wrapped up our fighting for now, so you'll have to come back next time to see who we fight. Join us again for Magical Girls Unite."
