Ryuusei was surprised by the sudden interference. But justice was swift and Ryuusei was the sole enforcer. After she landed on her feet she leaped towards the redhead, readying her punch. However, she was not as fast as before.

Kyoko: " *Tch. " as she quickly blocked blows with her arms.

Kyuubey: " [ Behind you! ] "

Ryuusei was completely trusting Kyuubey. She didn't like how that creature irresponsibly gave powers to everyone but Kyuubey was helping her now. This made Ryuusei think that Kyuubey was in agreement with her and finally cleaning up its own mess by helping her fight against evil magical girls. She became faster. Without hesitating, she grasped redhead's arms and by taking strength from them she jumped over her.

Kyoko was completely baffled by the sudden increase in her opponent's speed and she almost fell victim to Kirika's claw. Kirika had aimed at Ryuusei though, that's why it didn't reach Kyoko.

However, that was not the end yet. Ryuusei, still on midair, kicked redhead towards Kirika. Kyoko fell on top of Kirika.

Kyuubey was thinking of what is the best course of action in this situation. Ryuusei was a new pawn that could come in handy and the death of Kirika Kure wouldn't outweigh Ryuusei's help. On the contrary, getting rid of a magical girl murderer was quite beneficial. However, Kyoko Sakura was also in the picture now. Kyoko Sakura was a girl that will surely come in handy for corrupting other magical girls. Kyoko Sakura was what you would call a pitiful girl who lost her way due to circumstances. She could be used to evoke sympathy from other magical girls around her while Kyoko can do her usual business, taking away their source of griefseeds to do whatever she wants. The girls that fight her wouldn't be able to give it their all and be confused about their own ideals, lose their territory, and become a witch in the end.

Kyoko couldn't care less about other magical girls losing their territory as she went through worst of worst. She just wanted to fill the void inside of her with magic. Being a magical girl was the last thing left for her. However now she was not even that, but subordinate of one! When she saw two magical girls fighting inside the barrier, both trying to kill one another, she wanted to use them but she also wanted to stop them so that there would be no death.

She didn't expect to be in such a scary position now though. She never imagined there could be such strong magical girls that can play around with her without letting her even move. Just how fast was that girl?

Kyoko was lying on top of Kirika Kure who was confused. If Oriko was there she could come up with a plan to turn the situation into their favor. As annoying as it was, the brown-haired girl proved to be a challenge that she probably couldn't overcome. And now another girl jumped into the fray by saving her life. She was lying under that girl and she was confused over what to do. What would Oriko do? Somehow she thought Oriko would suggest against killing her new savior. She grinned. It was getting easier for her to predict Oriko's thoughts, they have spent so much time together after all.

When Kirika was busy slicing her way through magical girls, Oriko was making them fight one another. She could do it too! Then Oriko would surely praise her after they are done here.

Kirika, trying to whisper: " Thanks for your help- eh "

While Kirika was thinking about what to do Kyoko was already standing up. She could no longer hear her whispers. Kyoko was too busy to listen Kirika anyways.

Kyoko: " You want to play rough? So be it, but don't expect me to just take it! " as she created a new spear.

Ryuusei readied herself as well. Neither side would back down and neither has forgotten about Kirika. Kyoko would glance back to her from time to time.

Kyubey: " [ Don't be so hasty, Ryuusei! You are attacking every girl you see. ] "

Ryuusei: " [ But she protected that girl! She is obviously an accomplice of hers! ] "

Kyubey: " [ It is possible. However she could also have come just to finish your fight. Isn't preventing deaths whenever possible dictated by your society? For now, calm down and asses situation without escalating it any further. ] "

Ryuusei was going to retort but stopped, took a breath instead and lowered her arms. Then she pointed towards Kyoko and:

Ryuusei: " Who are you and why did you come between us?! "

This took Kyoko by surprise. She was ready to attack but her initial goal would be impossible to achieve then.

Kyoko: " I just wanted to stop you guys from killing each other! What the heck is wrong with you suddenly attacking me like a mad dog?! "

Ryuusei: " Don't stick your nose where it doesn't belong then! If it weren't for you I would have gotten rid of that murderer! "

Kyoko: " Huh? " she glanced back, but Kirika was much closer than she expected, and faster...

Kirika: " I am sorry my savior, I thought you could be more useful. I can't handle you two and sadly you are first to go. "

Kyoko couldn't move as fast as she wanted. Kirika was too fast for her, she even spoke fast.

But Kyoko could at least turn around. Alas, that didn't stop Kirika from swinging her right arm, cutting her abdomen from side. Kyoko could hardly put her spear between the blades, bearing the pain. If she hadn't, her body could be torn into two messy pieces. She stopped Kirika's claw, which was digging into her, from going any further but Kirika, experiencing Ryuusei's strength first hand simply pulled out and retreated. Ryuusei was running towards Kirika and had she tried to attack Kyoko with her other arm Ryuusei wouldn't let her escape.

Kyoko was on her knees, trying to stop the bleeding while screaming because of the pain. Those two girls didn't matter to her anymore. She was extremely unlucky nowadays and she cursed her luck.

Ryuusei was pursuing now running away Kirika. Kirika had noticed the holes on the walls. One was on the side red haired girl came from and one was on the opposite side. She ran towards the opposite side. She had an idea about those holes unlike Ryuusei.

Ryuusei finally closed in as they reached a wall. She jumped and punched Kirika.

But her punch got blocked by a sphere that appeared all of a sudden, which was starting to glow.
