Harouki: I have no excuse for this. I was distracted and haven't been able to update Movie Wars at all. In fact, I think I may even have to take back about it being the final chapter. The pacing would be too crazy if I cram it all into one chapter. So in an effort to alleviate the absence of another proper update this week, here's yet another "Teaser" for you to enjoy. Once again set in the realm of Nasu, we enter the Magical Girl side of the Nasuverse. Let the shit storm begin~


A tall, dark haired young man with regal purple eyes entered an old bar in a nameless town. However, he wasn't here for pleasure, but business. A man he had been tracking for a few months was currently inside and he had finally managed to set up a meeting with him. It was important for him to meet with this man, as it was for a friend of his. This man had information about her, and he needed to confirm it.

The inside of the bar was straight out of a movie. A thick layer of smoke floated near the ceiling as burly men sat at tables playing cards, drinking alcohol, or other gambling games. He walked right past all of them, ignoring the ones that were giving him odd stares and sat down at a booth near the corner of the bar, with his back to the corner booth where another man was sitting.

"Are you the informant?" the other man asked him.

"Indeed," he replied. In order to meet with the man, the young man had posed as an information broker, dealing information to various groups of people without affiliation and using information he received to track him down. "What is it you wanted to know?"

"The plans to the building on this USB," the man replied, holding a small USB key over his shoulder. The young man took it and inserted it into a small laptop he kept on his person. Looking through the photographs of the building in question, he pressed a few keys on his laptop before ejecting the key and handing it back to the man.

"Done, now I would like to ask you some questions as payment."

"What is it?"

"Do you know the name Hisau Maiya?" He asked. Despite not turning around, the young informant noticed that the man had stiffened ever so slightly that he would have normally missed it if he hadn't been looking for it. "I take it you do. Do you know what happened to her?"

"She's dead. Died ten years ago."

"I see...did you know she had a daughter?"

Again, there was a short pause from the older man, telling the informant that he in fact, did not know. The young man pulled a picture out of his jacket and held it over his shoulder to the older man, who took it and stared at it. The picture depicted a single dark haired girl with empty purple eyes. She was wearing a yellow school uniform with a black pleated skirt and looked annoyed at having her picture taken.

"She goes by the name of Akemi Homura now," the informant continued. "The girl is currently under my care and I've been doing a little digging on her past, specifically...about her parents."

"What are you saying?"

"I'm saying that fifteen years ago, Hisau Maiya gave birth to this girl at a hospital in Umihara city. I'm saying that within the last twenty years, the woman was only ever close to one man. And I'm saying, Emiya Kiritsugu. that there is a high chance that she is your daughter."

When the man didn't say anything to that, the informant sighed as he pulled out a small vial from his jacket and held it up.

"Here is a bit of her blood. Check it with yours. If you do not have anything to be used for Hisau Maiya's DNA, I'll procure one for you and send it to you at another time if you wish."

"That...won't be necessary..." Emiya Kiritsugu replied as he took the vial.

"Very well. I included my personal contact information on the USB key when I handed you the maps. When you do the paternity test, please let me know the results. We can discuss what to do with the girl from there."

And with that, the informant took his leave, leaving the old mercenary alone with the photograph and the small vial of blood.


Around three days later, the results came in.

Positive.

That's what the test had said. The girl's blood contained both Maiya's and his DNA.

Emiya Kiritsugu had another child out there. Another daughter. One from his former friend and associate that he had worked with for years. A single fling of passion had ended up making her conceiving a child...his child.

Come to think of it, Maiya had dropped off the grid for a bit and hadn't met him face to face for a while fifteen years ago...this was probably the reason. Because she had been pregnant and didn't want him to know about it. She probably had also spent some time making sure the girl would be cared for if anything had happened to her, and they seemed to have worked if the girl was going to school.

What worried him was the look in the girl's eyes. They reminded him of his own, and not in the usual way either. They reminded him of a tired soldier's eyes, something a fifteen year old girl shouldn't be capable of being.

And yet...the thing that worried him most of all was...

"How the hell am I going to explain this to Iri?"


Thankfully, his wife was a lot more understanding than he thought she would be. After all, the girl was conceived before they were married after all so there was no problem there. But perhaps she was a bit too understanding, as she wanted to go meet the girl right away, forcing him to contact the informant again, with Irisviel standing over his shoulder as he made the call...on speaker phone.

"Has it connected yet?" Irisviel asked, shaking his shoulders.

"Not yet..." Kiritsugu replied. Even though it was unlikely, he felt as though the informant was delaying in answering the phone on purpose.

Finally, after the sixth ring, the phone was answered.

"Hello?"

But the one who answered was not the informant, but a girl instead.

"Hello...is Zero there?" Kiritsugu asked, using the informant's pseudonym.

"Ah...just a moment."

There was a small pause as Irisviel turned to her husband.

"Do you think that was her?" she asked.

"I'm not sure..."

"This is Zero," came the informant's voice from the other end. "Would I be correct in assuming it is you, Emiya-san?"

"Yes..."

"And since you are calling me...I assume that the results were positive?"

"Yes...they were..."

"I see...so what would you like to do?"

"We want to meet her!" Irisviel said, shoving her husband to the side slightly.

"Am I speaking to Miss Irisviel now?" Zero asked. "A pleasure ma'am."

"That's fine and all, but I want to meet the girl."

"I understand. However, I would need to check with her first. After all, she doesn't even know that her father is still alive, seeing as I haven't told her yet."

"Why not?"

"Because it wasn't confirmed until just now. Call me back in about an hour as I break the news to your daughter."

With that, the line disconnected as Kiritsugu sighed while Irisviel pouted.


"Homura," Lelouch said as he knocked on her door. "Can I talk to you for a moment?"

"What is it?" Homura asked as she opened the door and poked her head out.

"It's going to take a while, so mind if I come in?"

Homura shook her head as she took a step back and allowed the older boy to enter her room. The two of them walked towards the center and sat down on the two couches as Lelouch looked around at the floating paintings.

"No matter how many times I come in here, it's always quite the sight," he muttered before turning his attention back to Homura. "In any case...the reason I want to talk to you is...well...to put it bluntly...I found your father."

There was a moment of awkward silence between the two of them before Homura spoke up.

"Excuse me?" Homura asked.

"Like I said, I found your father. I was doing a little information searching and on a whim, I decided to look up your family tree since you're an orphan too. It turns out, while your mother is no longer with us, your father is."

"Is that where you disappeared to last week? To search for my father?"

"It's what I've been doing for the last few months, but yes. Last week was the first time I met him face to face though. And well, he and his family would like to meet with you."

Homura blinked as she looked down a her hands, not answering him.

"Of course, you don't have to go alone. I'll come with you since I'm technically your guardian right now. We could also bring Mami or Kyouko with us. Or would you rather bring Madoka instead?"

"Is...is there even a point in me going?" she asked, sounding extremely uncharacteristically shy. "I mean...he has a family right? I would feel like I was intruding on something..."

"Well, at the very least, your father and his wife want to meet you. Especially the wife for some odd reason. She sounds...overly eager in fact. If you're not comfortable though, you don't have to meet with them. But they'll be calling back in a few hours. At the very least, try talking with them on the phone before deciding what to do."

"Why did you even look them up in the first place?"

"Like I said, it was on a whim while looking up Hayate's," Lelouch replied. "Her's was a dead end though, since she was left at an orphanage as a baby without a name so her name was given to her by the orphanage and no one 'knows' about having a child by the name of Yagami Hayate."

"She won't forgive me if I ignored them would she?" Homura asked.

"No, she probably wouldn't. After all, you and all your sisters are orphans but you have the option about learning of your parents...oh? Still not comfortable with calling Hayate, Mami and Kyouko your sisters?"

"I still don't know how you manage to get us all in the same family registry..."

"Well, considering that I already had the fake papers to become Kyouko's legal guardian in order to send her to school, I then took over Hayate's guardianship when her guardian died in that train accident. Mami was all too happy to have a family again so she accepted...and well, I sneaked the papers in while you were signing your school registry papers..."

She had thought those papers required too many signatures, but Madoka had been talking to her at the time so she hadn't been paying her full attention to them.

"Well...at least take some relief that I'm still just labeled as your guardian, and not your father or something insane like that."

The mere thought of that happening gave her goosebumps. It almost made her physically ill even. At least Lelouch had some sense of decency.

"So, will you at least try talking to them?"

"Yes...though I'm not expecting anything," Homura replied.

"That's all I ask. Would you like everyone to sit with you or would you rather take it privately?"

"I don't care as long as Kyouko isn't around."

"Hahaha...how about I distract her by asking her to taste test some new recipes I've been wanting to try out with Shamal while Mami and Hayate sit with you then?"

"That's...acceptable. I'll take the call in my room..."

"Very well," Lelouch nodded as he handed her the phone. I'll send the other two over in a bit."

"Fine..." Homura nodded as she took the phone as Lelouch left. She gave a small sigh as she thought about her life since the battle...


It had been a little over a year since the battle with Walpurgisnacht and the corrupted defense program. The Riders had returned to their own world to finish things there but they dropped by to help out every now and then. A few times, Lelouch brought along his sister, who he had discovered, did not die during the FLEIA explosion and the girls had made quick friends with her since she was around their age.

Suzaku and Sayaka...that was an odd pairing but somehow, they were trying to make it work. But so long as Sayaka was satisfied, Homura really didn't care too much about it. Though...she did hear Sayaka talking to Suzaku about going back with him to his world once she was old enough and the knight didn't seem to mind, only wondering if that was okay since she would need to purify her Soul Gem on occasion. But then that would be fine if she came back once a week to let Madoka purify it or if she would bring a bunch of Grief Seeds and Shards with her.

Then there was C.C...who was pretty much the same aloof woman she always was. Considering she had lived for centuries, it would be odd if she suddenly changed over the course of a few months.

Though since their little "family" became so large now, with the addition of Hayate and her knights, Lelouch had to move them out of the apartment and into a large mansion on the edge of the city that was close to the high school that Mami and Kyouko were attending.

It was a large building with seven bedrooms and five bathrooms on three floors. Whenever the Riders would join them, they would divide the sleeping arrangements so that the Riders and Homura got their own rooms while Shamal shared with Signum, Hayate shared with Vita and Kyouko shared with Mami, Zafira was offered to share the room with Hayate and Vita but the wolf guardian preferred the living room. Whenever the Riders left, Signum would take Suzaku's room while Kyouko took Lelouch's. No one wanted C.C.'s since it somehow always smelled like pizza even after spending hours attempting to remove the smell.

The Wolkenritter, save Vita, were also forced to get jobs by Lelouch, who also acquired fake Ids for them, in order to help pay for living expenses since he couldn't always take money from the royal treasury all the time. Signum worked as an archery instructor at Mami and Kyouko's school, Shamal worked as a bartender and Zafira worked as a construction worker.

A knock on the door snapped her out of her thoughts as Mami came in while wheeling Hayate.

"Lelouch-san told us about it," Mami said as she sat across from Homura. "Are you okay?"

"I suppose...just a little nervous," Homura answered as she looked at the phone sitting innocently in front of her. Has it been an hour already? As if to answer her question, the phone began to ring as she extended a shaky hand to it and turned it on on speaker phone. "H-hello?"

"Is this...Akemi Homura?" a man's voice came from the other end. Her father's voice.

"Yes...is this...ah..."

Lelouch forgot to tell her the man's name...but luckily the man chose to introduce himself at the moment to cover her awkwardness.

"My name is Emiya Kiritsugu...and apparently...I'm your father..."

"Geez, Kiritsugu, what kind of introduction is that?" came a female voice on the other end. "Hello, Homura-chan! My name is Irisviel, Kiritsugu's wife. It's a pleasure to finally be able to talk to you. So have you decided to come live with us yet?"

"Huh? I...what?"

"She seems very forward doesn't she?" Hayate asked with a small giggle.

"Hmm? Is someone else there with you?" Irisviel asked.

"Yes, my...extended family I guess you could call them. We all have the same guardian."

"Come now, Homura-san, is it really that embarrassing to call us your sisters?" Mami asked.

"Yes."

"Oh wow, you should all come visit us this weekend!"

"I-Iri...that's just a bit..."

"A bit what, Dear? She needs to meet the family she's been separated from doesn't she? She needs to meet her brother and sister too doesn't she?"

"My what?"

"Your brother and sister. You have a brother in high school and a sister in middle school."

"This conversation is going all over the place isn't it, Hayate-chan?"

"You're right, Mami-san..."

"So it's settled!" Irisviel said finally. "You all will be coming over for the weekend. Just take a train to the XYZ Station in Fuyuki and I'll come get you. See ya."

And with that call ended, leaving a very confused and flustered Homura staring at the receiver.

"Umm...what just happened there?" she asked the other two.

"I think we got invited to meet your father's family," Mami said with a sympathetic smile.

"Yay! Road trip!" Hayate said as she thrust her hand into the air.

"Hayate-chan...is your school work good enough for you to be taking a day off, catching up?"

"Grk...i-it will be fine! I'm definitely doing fine! Probably..."


Somehow, the weekend came sooner than Homura would have liked as she found herself standing outside a train station in Fuyuki alongside Hayate, Vita, Kyouko, and Mami.

The rest of the Wolkenritter had wanted to come but were unable take time off of work, leaving Vita to be their "chaperone" since Lelouch had been called back to his world to deal with some political nonsense in his world that he couldn't leave to his officials.

"Are we a bit early?" Mami asked as she checked her watch. "It did only take thirty minutes on the bullet train after all..."

"No, she said to meet here at three..." Homura replied. "Maybe Irisviel-san is late?"

"Wait a minute..." Kyouko said as she held a hand up. "Do you hear something?"

"Hear something?" Hayate asked as she cupped her ear to listen.

"Yeah...is that a..." Vita began as they all turned around to see something above them. "CAR!"

Indeed it was a car. A silver Mercedes SL300 "Gullwing," to be exact. The girls screamed as they quickly dove out of the way as the car landed in front of them and spun to a stop as a woman cheerfully opened the door and stepped out. She had long silver hair with red eyes and had a very pleasant air around her.

"Oh my," the woman began as if she hadn't just almost ran the five of them over. "Are you Homura-chan's group?"

"What the hell!" Vita and Kyouko screamed at the same time. "You almost ran us over!"

"Really? I though I gave you all plenty of time to dodge."

"We have a person in a wheelchair here! How the hell is she supposed to dodge?"

"Are you okay, Hayate-chan?" Mami asked as the girl simply stared at Irisviel.

"Reinforce?" she asked softly before shaking her head. "No, I'm fine..."

"Sorry about that..." came a male voice as a man stepped out of the passer seat, completely shaken up. "Iri gets a little...excited when she's behind the wheel..."

The man then walked towards Homura as the two of them stared each other down.

"Umm...pleased to finally meet you," he said. "I'm Emiya Kiritsugu."

"Akemi Homura...likewise..." Homura replied with a small bow.

"Uwaa...you can totally see the family resemblance..." Kyouko muttered.

"That's no good, Dear," Irisviel chastised. "She's your daughter. You should at least hug her."

"No, I'm fine," Homura said quickly.

"Now now, no need to be so reserved!" Irisviel insisted as she pulled the girl into a hug. "After all, we're your parents right?"

"I...I don't...I...huh?"

The next thing Homura knew, she was flying through the air and right into the back of the car.

"Now then, let's load up the girls into the car, Dear."

"Huh?" the other four asked.

"Oh no," Vita said backing up. "There's no way I'm going in a car with you behind the wheel."

"Now don't be like that. Since there are five of you...we'll have the younger ones inside while you two take the bus okay?" Irisviel asked as Kiritsugu handed a few bills to Mami and Kyouko. "We'll see you later!"

The two adults then pulled Hayate and Vita into the car as it took off with a loud screech, leaving skid marks on the ground for a few meters as it zoomed off into the distance.

"We...dodged a pretty big bullet there didn't we?" Kyouko asked as they could still hear the other girls' screams.

"Indeed..." Mami nodded as she pulled out a piece of paper with the house's address on it. "Shall we take the bus or do you want to just jump our way there?"

"Fastest way there is a straight line," Kyouko shrugged. "Let's pick up some stuff on the way there so we don't get there too quickly."


"My, they certainly don't have much constitution do they?" Irisviel asked as she and Kiritsugu turned around to the back seats. Homura was sitting in the center, her eyes unfocused as her head was tilted lifelessly to the side. Vita was to her right, eyes wide open and black as she was frothing at the mouth, while Hayate was on her other side, grasping the older girl's arm in sheer shock as he eyes were constantly spinning.

Homura couldn't understand it. She dealt with the trauma of losing Madoka and facing the end of the world hundreds upon hundreds of times. She dealt with Witches that could easily kill her if she made a single mistake. So why? Why was it that this crazy woman's driving scared her so badly? How did she narrowly miss that bus? How did she manage to get the car to jump on a flat road? How did she manage to spin five time while making that turn? How the hell were they still alive?

"Well, wake up everyone, we're home!"

Homura's head snapped up as she looked outside the window to see a fairly normal and nice looking two story house.

"Sorry we took so long. I wanted to take the scenic route since it's been so long since we've been back here," Irisviel explained.

"Yo, looks like you got here first after all," came Kyouko's voice as the group exited the car. "People in this city drive all crazy...that taxi driver was nuts..."

"He must have been driving fairly fast if the two of you stopped by for those snacks and managed to get here as well..." Kiritsugu noted, looking at the bags Kyouko was holding.

"Like I said. Crazy."

Despite it being completely suspicious, Kiritsugu let it slide, wanting to get some medicine for the headache he was feeling. The group was then led into the house by Irisviel, who threw the door open with a loud, "We're back!"

The occupants of the house, two adult women, a young girl, and a teenage boy jumped as they stared at her and the rest of the group. The girls all had silver hair and red eyes just like Irisviel, making Homura wonder if they were the woman's sisters or something since she only mentioned having only one daughter, who was probably the person sitting on the couch watching the TV with the other silver haired woman with short hair. The boy had red hair and golden brown eyes as he stood at the kitchen area with the final silver haired woman who had her hair tied in a ponytail.

Of course, judging from their reactions...they had not been expecting them.

"Eh, Mama? Papa?" the girl asked as she looked between Kiritsugu and Irisviel. "When did you get back...? Wait...who are all these people?"

"Madam..." the pony-tailed woman began with a resigned sigh. "Just what did you bring back this time?"

"Surprise, Illya, Shirou!" Irisviel said as she grabbed Homura and brought her to the front. "We brought you your long lost sister and her friends!"

Immediately following the sudden declaration, the atmosphere of the room dropped to the point of freezing as the woman looked towards Kiritsugu in hopes that he would rebuke Irisviel's claim. When he turned his head away from her, the woman groaned as she buried her face in her hands.

"Umm...sister...what?" the boy, Shirou, asked.

"It seems your father was with another woman before he met me," Irisviel explained causing Kiritsugu to wince slightly. "And Homura-chan here is the result of that."

Homura felt her face heat up as all eyes were suddenly upon her. This entire situation was completely embarrassing, and Irisviel was only making it worse. She turned to her friends for help, only to receive sympathetic faces instead, as they didn't want to be caught up in it either.

"Umm...are you absolutely sure she's..." Shirou began but Kiritsugu quickly nodded his head. "I see...my sympathies, old man..."

"Come now everyone," Irisviel said as she clapped her hands together, taking control of the entire situation. "Line up and introduce yourselves. Don't be so shy."

One by one Homura and her friends introduced themselves and were greeted in turn by Homura's father's family. The boy's name was Shirou and the girl was Illyasviel, often shortened as Illya. The two older silver haired women were introduced as Sella, the one who was beside Shirou and Leysritt, the one who was sitting next to Illya. These two were the family's maids...supposedly...

"Well, now that you all have been introduced, have fun!" Irisviel said as and Kiritsugu were headed towards the door.

"Eh? You're leaving already?" Illya asked.

"Sorry but we're busy after all. Have fun now, Homura-chan!"

"Eh? W-wait just a minute!" Homura began only for the door to slam shut followed by the sound of a car taking off at high speed.

"Ahh...you all have been completely caught in her pace..." Sella sighed.

"You have...quite the interesting mother, Illya-san," Mami said as she placed a hand on her cheek. "Poor Homura-san is completely confused."

"It's just like with Lelouch," Kyouko snickered. "It's so amusing breaking down those walls they build up to keep their images intact."

"Haha...sorry," Illya laughed. "Mama has always been like that."

"She seems like a very interesting mother," Hayate said with a smile. "So what were you watching before we came in?"

"Messenger of Love, Justice, and Humanity! Magical Girl, Magical Warrior Musashi appears! Stop your villainous ways!" came the sound from the TV, causing Hayate and the others to do a small spit take as they turned toward the TV.

"Ahaha...I kind of like Magical Girl anime," Illya said with an embarrassed laugh as she scratched the back of her head.

"This...this is just..." Vita began before turning to the others. "This is a Magical Girl?"

"Well it's just an anime after all. I mean, it's not like Magical Girls exist in real life, right?"

"Ahaha...that would be really interesting if they did, wouldn't you think?" Mami asked as the others turned their heads away from Illya.

"Right? Wouldn't life be much more exciting that way?" Illya asked with sparkles in her eyes, happy that she found people with a similar interest.

"Well...I don't disagree with you there," Hayate said with a giggle.

"But really, who would be fighting for things like love, justice and humanity in this day and age...?" Kyouko asked before stopping and slapping herself on the head. "Oh right...she would..."

"She?"

"A friend of ours who likes to pretend she's a knight."

"Kyouko-san, you shouldn't make fun of Sayaka-san just because she isn't here..."

"That's right! Sayaka-san is a great person!"

"Fine fine..."

"You're friends seem to get along well," Sirou noted to Homura as the girl pinched the bridge of her nose in frustration. "Sorry that our mom and dad are a bit...flighty...but they're good people."

"I suppose so..." Homura sighed as she stared at the extremely naïve and idealized version of what a Magical Girl was supposed to be.


Illya sighed as she sank into the tub.

Today had been a crazy day. She received a new older sister who apparently was the result of a one night stand between her father and his former partner. Though the girl was very quiet, she was far from unkind and reminded her of Kiritsugu a lot.

Illya had gotten into a lengthy conversation with her new sister and her friends about Magical Girls too, happy to see other girls her own age, enjoy such a thing, though Homura and the other two were older than her even. The eldest, Tomoe Mami, the one in the wheel chair, Yagami Hayate, and the shorter red head, Yagami Vita, seemed to think that calling the names of attacks was only natural for a Magical Girl, something Illya agreed on while the other two thought it was just plain embarrassing.

They were also split on what made a Magical Girl a Magical Girl in terms of abilities. Hayate, Mami and Homura agreed with her in that a Magical Girl should be more of a back line fighter, tossing range attacks at the enemy while Vita and Kyouko thought a Magical Girl should be able to fight up close and personal with weapons as well since not all enemies will just sit back and be used as target practice for the girl.

Though they all did agree that transforming should be done far away from the battle and not right in front of the enemy. Since they do end up naked during the transformation sequences and the enemy could take that opportunity to attack.

Though she couldn't understand the difference between herself and Mami. They were only separated by a few years in age and yet the girl was so much more...developed than she was.

"It's not fair..." Illya mumbled as she sank a bit in the tub. "I want to boing too...hmm?"

Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed sparks in the night sky.

"Are those fireworks?" she wondered as she turned the light off to try and get a better view. But when she did, the explosions had suddenly stopped. "Aww is it over already? Hmm...it looks like something is...coming this way!"

As she said this, the lights turned back on. Turning around, she noticed Shirou standing there with a blank expression on his face.

"The...the lights were off..." he began, pointing to the light switch. "So...I came in and...this..."

Tears began to form in Illya's eyes as she started to cover herself up and scream, only to be cut off as Shirou let out a grunt of pain and fall over as something had smacked into him.

"Whew...did I avoid a big finish?" the thing that smacked into Shirou...spoke in a feminine voice as it turned to face Illya. "Ah, nice to meet you! I am the magic stick of love and justice, Magical Ruby-chan! You have been chosen as the next Magical Girl! So please take me into your hands and devote yourself and use me against all things evil!"

Illya simply stared at the talking stick. It had a red handle with a white and gold circle at the tip that had a golden star in the center. The circle was also adorn with three stubs on each side the shape of wings that seemed to move like the stick's limbs. The only thing she could think of when she looked at it was not a magical device but rather...that it was completely suspicious. As if reading her mind, or just the expression she must have had on her face the stick or wand or whatever it was gasped and pointed of of its appendages at her accusingly.

"You just thought I was suspicious just now didn't you?"

"Eh? Well...wouldn't anyone?" Illya asked.

"Ah...how sad..." the wand sighed as it wiggled back and forth. "Are girls that want to become magical girls disappearing now in this modern era?"

"That's not it...and get off my Onii-chan's face."

"Oh my, how disrespectful of me! This social outcast is your brother?"

"O-Onii-chan isn't a social outcast! How rude!"

"But look..." the wand said as it lifted up Shirou's towel, revealing his manhood to Illya who promptly gasped in shock as blood shot out of her nose.

"Wh...why did you do that you pervert?" she screamed. "You sexual harassment stick!"

"My, what a huge reaction that was," the wand said as it reached up and collected a bit of Illya's blood on its wing. "Now onto the origial discussion...why don't you want to be a Magical Girl?"

"Umm...random things happening at once makes my head hurt..." Illya began. "Don't just come in and hit someone in the face..."

"It's enjoyable, being a Magical Girl," the wand said as it flew right up to her face.

"Umm..."

"Flying in the sky! Shooting beams to annihilate your enemies!"

"Hey..."

"Falling in love with magic!"

"...Eh?"

"Ah! A reaction!" the wand shouted. "So that's it! A boyfriend!"

"No! No that's not it at all!" Illya denied.

"Shamelessly becoming more and more suspicious! Who is it? A boy from your class?"

"That's not it! Anyway...why am I being harassed by a stick? What's going on here?"

"Aha...I understand now...it's a forbidden love with your brother!"

"That's not it at all...you stupid stick!" Illya screamed as she grabbed the wand to throw it out the window. "Get out of here!"

Suddenly, Illya's body froze and she found herself unable to move as the wand let out a small laugh in triumph.

"Just as I expected...certified master by blood, contract activated by contact, and the key start: a maiden's love power!" the wand listed off. "All checked out without a problem! Now then, please tell me your name to put on the finishing touches."

"Ah...I'm...Illya...Illyasviel von Einzbern!" Illya found herself shouting as she was bathed in a bright white light.

"Master registered! Ruby-chan at your service!" the wand called out. "Now then, this power here is Prisma Trance, compact full open! Expanding connection to alternate realities! The new Kaledio Ruby, Prisma Illya! What a wonderful transformation, if I do say so myself."

Illya soon found herself in a bright punk outfit with wings and shoulderless sleeves with white gloves. She had a fluttery and frilly skirt and long pink stockings as well as two wing shaped ribbons holding her hair up.

"W-what is this?" she screamed. "Is this really a Magical Girl? How shameful!"

"No no, this is normal Illya," Ruby said. "It's a perfect match for a teenage Magical Girl. Somewhere out there, there is an old hag Magical Girl that is completely different..."

"Who are you calling..." a foreign voice called out from behind Illya as she suddenly felt herself be pulled out the window. "An old hag!"


"Emiya-san?" came Mami's voice from outside the door. "Are you okay in there? Did you slip on the floor or something? Are...are you decent?"

The door opened a crack as the blonde peered inside only to throw it wide open when she saw Shirou unconscious on the ground.

"Emiya-san? What in the world happened to you?" Mami asked as she fretted over the boy's bloody face, holding her hands above her eyes to keep them from wandering down the boy's body. She then realized that someone was shouting just outside the window. Carefully making her way across the wet ground, she poked her head outside the window and blinked in bewilderment as she spotted Illyasviel, wearing a ridiculously pink outfit kneeling in front of a dark haired girl dressed in a red blouse and black skirt with her hair up in twin tails.

"Anyway, return that stick okay?" the girl was asking Illya. "Unfortunately, I need that good for nothing piece of junk."

"Y-yeah..." Illya nodded as she held the strange wand she was holding towards the girl. "Here."

The girl grabbed the wand but for some reason, Illya was unable to release her grip on the thing. She then blinked again when she heard the wand say something and wiggle around in Illya's hand, only to be smashed into the brick wall at the side of the house by the black haired girl.

"This is...really suspicious..." Mami muttered as she quickly ran out of the bathroom. "I need to get Homura-san and Kyouko-san..."


Back outside, Illya let out a cry of shock as the girl, who Ruby had called Rin, started shooting some strange lights from her finger at her only to be surprised that despite the light causing holes in the ground and kicking dirt up everywhere that she was unhurt.

"How do you like that?" Ruby shouted. "This newborn hero, Illya, is not someone that an ordinary human like you can win against!"

"Hey! Stop picking a fight!" Illya shouted.

"Is that right..." Rin muttered with a sigh as she pulled out a gem. "Well then..."

She flipped the gem in the air...only for a yellow light to come from behind Illya to crash into it, causing the remains to fall harmlessly to the ground.

"What the heck was that?" Rin called out as several more lights crashed in front of her, causing several yellow strings to rise up from the ground and trap her. "What the hell is this?"

"That's our line lady," came a familiar voice.

Illya turned around to see Kyouko, Mami, and Homura standing behind her. Kyouko was holding a red tipped spear while Mami and Homura were dual wielding rifle and pistols in their hands respectively. They were all dressed differently than when she had left them to enter the bath.

Kyouko was wearing a shoulder-less red jacket over a darker red blouse and skirt with white detached sleeves with red cuffs and stockings. She also had a bright red gem planted over her chest.

Homura was wearing something that looked like a school uniform with a white blouse with a purple skirt. She also had a purple ribbon tying her collar together. A bright purple gem was also embedded into her left hand.

Mami was also wearing a white blouse with a brown corset on top of a yellow skirt. She also had on brown and white striped stockings and a brown feathered hat that had a yellow gem on it.

At the sight of the three, only one thought entered Illya's mind.

"Ma...Magical Girls?" she asked

"What the hell? Rin shouted. "Where in the world did you three come from?"

"From inside the house of course," Mami said as she raised the rifle up to Rin's chest. "Now tell us, why are you attacking Illya-san?"

"First of all," Homura began as she looked at her younger sister. "When did you become a Magical Girl...what wish did you make?"

"Eh...I have no idea what's going on..." Illya said honestly. "I was just taking a bath then this thing came out of nowhere...and the next thing I knew, I was in this get up and Rin was trying to take the wand back."

"How rude! My name is Ruby-chan!" the wand said with a huff. "But really, I didn't think there were other Magical Girls here. Maybe I should have looked more carefully and contracted one of you instead of Illya."

At the mention of the word, "contract," the three Puella's expressions darkened as Homura raised her one of the pistols in her hand and fired at the wand, forcing it out of Illya's hand before stepping on it and jamming the pistol into its star face.

"And what exactly is this contract pay tell?" she asked.

"Well now...this is unexpected..."

"Umm...if you three would let me down..." Rin began, bringing everyone's attention back to her. "I'll explain everything..."

Chapter's End Corner

Harouki: So..what is there to say other than apologizing again?

Kyouko: How about not throwing us into more crazy Magical Girl nonsense!

Harouki: But that's half the fun of writing snippets!

Homura: This is not amusing at all.

Harouki: I beg to differ. Everything can be awesome if you add Irisviel from Fate/Kaleid Liner Prisma Illya to the moshpot. She's almost as fun as writing Levi!

Vita: So why are we all here instead of the usual people?

Mami: Lelouch-san ran away didn't he?

Harouki: Yeap, and Sayaka is hanging out with Suzaku somewhere.

Hayate: I'm still here!

Harouki: And you're still cute. Anyway, I really don't plan on continuing this due to lack of material for Prisma Illya so don't expect anything else for a long while. Hopefully I can finish Movie Wars before Mass Effect 3 comes out...ah crap...

Kyouko: What? No chance of that happening?

Harouki: Not when I gotta play Mass Effect 2 again and perfect a save file. God damn it all!
