Episode 24 - Time to Escape (Part 2)

Luke took Homura's hand and shakes her hand gently, and same goes for Leia. "Nice to meet you, young girl. I'm Leia Organa, princess-senator of Alderaan."

Homura heard the princess' words as she bows in respect, "Nice to meet you, your highness."

Sayaka smiled then she interrupts, "Um, sorry to interrupt but, we need to get going."

Luke snapped back into his sense and realizes that they were about to head back to the Millennium Falcon to escape. "Oh, right. I forgot. Come on, let's go." Luke and Leia ran past by as Sayaka and Homura followed them after.

"I like that attitude of yours. No time for playing around because things are getting serious. I'm glad you matured a bit, Miki-chan." Homura smiled lightly as she complimented Sayaka's spirited self into this situation while running.

Sayaka smirked and said, "Absolutely. Less talk, more escaping."

With that, Sayaka, Homura, Luke and Leia returned back to the docking bay, and noticed Kyouko, TK-135, Mami, Han Solo and Chewbacca across the same room they're in, and they sneaked past and hid behind the sideways of the doorway, leading to the docking bay and where the Falcon was still parked.

"Glad you four showed up." Kyouko noticed Luke, Leia, Sayaka and Homura as they're reunited once again with the Star Wars cast.

"Yeah, glad to you again, Kyouko." Sayaka smiled and greeted one another. However, it was interrupted by Han Solo as he's still peeking through the doorway saying, "Talk later. This isn't a time for a tea party with you two." Han sarcastically said but in a serious tone.

Unfortunately for them, six Stormtroopers round up at the exit ramp of the Falcon, as one of them inspected and looked throughout the pirateship itself.

Kyouko stepped right in and noticed, "Shoot. Now what?"

Homura insisted to use her time stop ability to enter the Falcon, but unfortunately, her powers are on cool-down at the moment after using it multiple times while she was on her mission to rescue Mami and Kyouko before the others rejoined today.


Death Star - Hallway

*cue whatever Madoka Magica OST battle theme*

Meanwhile, during the duel between Darth Vader against Ben Kenobi and Madoka Kaname, they were cornered as Vader approached to them with his red lightsaber on hand.

"I've been waiting for you, Obi-Wan. We meet again at last." Vader said under his mask as he sees his old former master again that left him for dead after losing the duel against him in Mustafar years ago. Madoka was frightened but kept her posture as she charged an arrow, but holding her fire steady to get a good aim.

Ben Kenobi held his lightsaber in a two-handed grip, as he pointed his blade towards Vader.

"The circle is now complete. When I left you, I was about a learner. But I am the master." Vader self-proclaimed as he completed his training as it reminded the good old days when the Jedi Council rejected to grant Anakin the rank of "Master", as his betrayal and hatred led him into the dark side to become more powerful he's ever been; in order to protect his wife, Padme Amidala. All it was lost until he stayed longer and serving the Empire to hunt down every potential Jedi in the Old Republic.

Madoka sensed Vader's presence and read his mind as she said, "Whoever you are, don't do this."

Vader was stunned until he turned his attention at the pink magical girl as he said, "You... You're one of those... girls." He turned his direction at the girl instead of Ben as he moved forward and made the first attack.

However, Ben protected Madoka as he clashed his lightsaber blade against Vader's and warned her, "Stay out of this, young Madoka! Protect yourself!"

Madoka looked at the old man with a worried face, but her expression turned into a slight determination with a bit of anger as she launched an arrow straight to the Dark Lord of the Sith, but with the power of the dark side, Vader managed to block the arrow just like how a puny blaster fire is deflective against a laser blade.

She was stunned as she noticed her arrow was being deflected, "What..?! How is that possible?"

Ben warned her again as he defends himself with a couple of hits from Vader's blade and yelled, "Your powers are similar to that of a blaster. Use something else!"

Madoka is completely confused as to what is she going to do next. Without hesitation, she made her bow turn back into staff mode as she lunges herself at the dark lord at intense speed, but Vader managed to feel her presence and blocked her attack as she jumped up and attacked him from behind with her magical wooden staff.

To his surprise, Madoka's staff is completely made out of magic; indestructible unless the user's mana is weakened, making the weapon from the user weak and malleable. "Impressive. Most impressive." Vader's expectations meet with the magical girl's powers as he is fighting against two at one.

"He's too strong.. We might be able to defeat him!"

"Only the master of evil, Darth!" Ben proclaimed as they attacked again then Vader blocked their attacks as fast as he could.

"Your powers are weak, old man."

BOOSH! BLOCK! SWING! SLASH! SHRING!

"You cannot win, Darth." Ben proclaimed again, then underestimating him by saying, "If you strike me, or her down, we shall become more powerful you could possibly imagine."

The duel between the Dark Lord of the Sith against the old Jedi Master, and the young youthful and hopeful pink magical girl.

Author's Note: I have a bet: try to imagine and feel how will the lightsaber duel turns out in your head. Use your imagination and run wild. Try it; it's really fun. 'Till next chapter!
