Lets do review reply as usual

doomqwer: While I like Danganroppa I don't think I wont add it as it will be too hard to integrate Naruto with the character in Danganronpa.

Jojotheshadow: Thanks for the compliment

Animaman: I plan Naruto have much powers as possible while his brotherhood will have certain powers and like last chapter Harry Potter who have Kamen Rider powers , Louise who have knowledge of Command of Conquer and last Kasumi who have Sengoku Basara and Onimusha . I plan Howard to got Metal Gear power and since I have yet to introduce his human form I decide he will look like Raiden from Metal Gear Rising And as for Naruto Business Naruto plan to move it from Konoha soon . Well actually he just bluffing but he will demand Minato so he won't pay large tax (If possible Naruto won't pay anything) . And he will use guilt trio for that. Or maybe I plan Angelique enter the fray since her shinobi persona Himeko Yamada wanted to kil Danzo, Koharu and Homura and since the first died already she will hunt last two. And I don't plan Naruto spilling his inheritance. It will keep secret

Czar Joseph: Thanks as for Harry part while some like elements of Darkstar Rises the only difference is Harry won't show off unless academic ones and he won't join quidditch anyway and since he plan for complete annihilation for Wizarding Britain he won't made friends there well except some acquaintance .

PhenexGundamKai: FA Unicorn will be his gundam and yes it will be Plan B . But you forgot one thing about fuinjutsu . So while Naruto will use FA Unicorn plan B , he still have all armaments from regular FA Unicorn and just spoiler, Naruto will start his Gundam adventure in Wing but he won't use his Gundam as I plan him to steal OZ mass produced MS like Leo and Taurus and he probably wil use Tallgeese when it near end.

Okay here we go the continuation

"I'm also curious how an interesting person like you knows about Puella Magi and Witches," Kyubey asks Naruto as he walks down the street leading back to Uzumaki Hardwares/.

Earlier that night, they gathered at Tomoe Mami's apartment where she served cake and tea while explained the life of a Puella Magi, or Magical Girl, to the two girls Kaname Madoka and Miki Sayaka. She only let Naruto tag along because of his insistence and because of Kyubey's request. It was also quite interested in Naruto and wanted to question him some more, but did not get anything out of him at during the tea session.

Naruto, however, gained a lot of insight about these Magical Girls and how they operate, and why they fought Witches. In fact, some of the topics raised that night seemed suspicious to him, including the act of making wishes in exchange for the ability to transform into a Magical Girl, and the necessity to replenish one's Soul Gem by constantly fighting Witches and collecting their Grief Seeds.

It got late and he didn't get to press some issues he was curious about, so he bade the girls farewell and reminded them not to stay up too late as they still had school tomorrow. Kyubey decided to follow Naruto out though.

"I think you know a lot more than you are letting on. I'm curious what you and Akemi Homura actually know," Kyubey continues. "Why don't you go ask her yourself?" Naruto answers with a question. "I'm curious about her myself."

"You're right. You don't know anything about her. After all, you're just an outsider." That last comment made Naruto pause for a moment. "An outsider?" "Yes, and I'm wondering what you're doing here. Maybe you want to destroy or maybe save the world." Said Kyubey "I dunno since I'm just sight seeing anyway." Replied Naruto

"In any case, I'd appreciate if you do not destroy this world until I have fulfilled my energy quota. Then I won't have any more business left with this world and you can do with it as you please, though by that time I can't guarantee that there would be anything left for you to destroy. Good night to you, Outsider."

Once Kyubey vanished, Naruto quickly decided Kyubey is the enemy of this world to be stopped, and Akemi Homura is probably on to it as well. The only problem is why Homura so persistent to prevent this Madoka to become Puella Magi. Well, he will find out in time .

TimeSkip

The following night, Naruto is out stalking again when he manages to eavesdrop on some interesting bits of conversation.

"They were chosen by Kyubey."

"You're guiding them to become Puella Magi."

"Isn't that interesting?"

"No, they'll cause problems. In particular, Madoka Kaname."

"I see. It seems to me that you've noticed her talent too."

"I really can't let her make the contract."

The conversation continues for a short while, degrading into threats of violence and death before one side decides to end this tirade and leave. That side would be Tomoe Mami. Once Naruto is sure that she has left, he steps out of the shadows and into Akemi Homura's sight. "The first interesting fact," he begins while extending his index finger to indicate the point count. "Kyubey is very, very interested in Kaname Madoka." At the mention of her name, Homura is visibly disturbed but remains silent, curious to hear what else he has to say.

"Fact number two," he pauses for dramatic effect. "Madoka seems to be an especially special person, that's one thing the two of you can agree on," referring to the conversation earlier. "And number three, which I should call speculation rather than fact, she will be somewhat instrumental to Kyubey's world-destroying shenanigans which you no doubt are aware of and are trying to stop."

Naruto's eyes turn to greet Homura's icy gaze. "Am I correct so far?" "What is your part in all this?" "I'm just a passer-by taking an interest in local matters," replies Naruto. "I may not know what the deal is between you Puella Magi and Witches, but whatever it is I can't stand by while a mysterious cat-thing from hell brings about the next apocalypse."

"You should stay out of this," Homura warns. "Nothing good will come out of it." "Still giving me the cold shoulder?" Naruto turns around and walks back into the shadows. "Are you sure you can save the world all by yourself?" Homura is left standing alone to ponder his words. 'Yes, I can. I made this promise to myself a long time ago.'

Timeskip

Naruto now currently move as fast as possible through Witch labyrinth . Numerous creatures appear to block his path, but without being able to match his speed they are quickly and effortlessly dispatched of as he races forward.' I need to get to Tomoe Mami in time.'

Earlier, he bumped into a flustered Kaname Madoka who gave him a quick, polite greeting before running off again, heading in the direction that Naruto guesses leads to Mami's apartment. He decided to shadow her to see what the fuss was about. His guess was confirmed when Madoka arrived at the apartment. She did not go inside, however. They briefly conversed at the front door, and then hurriedly left together. He continued to follow the pair until they reached a local hospital.

There, they both suddenly disappeared into a wall – no doubt the entrance to a Witch's labyrinth. What's more interesting is that he wasn't the only one following the pair. Akemi Homura went in shortly afterwards. He took a deep breath and then put his hand on the wall where the three girls disappeared into. Sucked into the Witch's labyrinth, he made some progress inside when he encountered a trapped Homura, bound by a web of pretty red and orange ribbons. Looks like Mami's handiwork, he guessed.

"Looks like you tied up in some personal problems," he quipped as he tried tugging on the ribbons to gauge their strength. "No," Homura replied in pain. The ribbons seem to tighten their grip the more she tries to struggle, even to speak. "There's no time; her magic is very strong. But Mami's about to face a more difficult Witch than she has dealt with before."

" Guess I shall leave you here. Remember you owe me." Said Naruto as he wearing facemask before he flashed deeper to inner part of labyrinth.

Sometime later

Naruto bursts into what appears to be the Witch's lair within the labyrinth. It resembles a large and spacious garden, but filled with all manner of strange motifs and patterns akin to the other labyrinth he was caught in previously. Colorful sweets, cakes and flowers surrounded a central set of tall platforms that resembled an oversized tea table set.

In the middle of the lair is a very large, worm-like thing with red polka dot patterns over its black body and a face like that of a clown. It has two colourful eyes and a sharp, pointed nose. It is looming over Tomoe Mami, poised to strike as she stares at the thing, appearing dumbfounded. Behind Mami, huddling behind some foliage, is Kaname Madoka, Miki Sayaka and Kyubey.

Naruto aiming his Buster Rifle and fires several beam shots, hitting the Witch's exposed side several times. This is enough to distract the Witch while shaking Mami back to reality. "You've really gotten ahead of yourself there."

The Witch turns its attention to the newcomer, staring at Naruto intently like a curious child upon a new toy. It opens it big, gaping maw and pulls back to strike when another volley of shots ring out, puncturing its belly and nearly knocking it over. Mami had finally regained her composure and struck back using several magically-manifested large bore muskets.

Faced with two opponents, the Witch quickly returns its attention to Mami, the one who hurt it the most. Lashing out like a snake, it slams and sinks its teeth into the ground where Mami was standing just a split second ago. She backflips onto one of the taller platforms and conjures several dozen more muskets around her. With a simple gesture, she makes them fire simultaneously, effectively counting as an area of effect-type blast that prevents the worm-like Witch from dodging successfully.

Hit by the barrage of bullets, the Witch writhes in pain and is sent crashing into an adjacent pillar. Naruto continues to watch as Mami manifests another weapon. This time it is just a single gun – an oversized musket that should probably be classified more as a cannon than a handgun. She takes a brief moment to aim, then unleashes her fury at the Witch's clown face. TIRO FINALE!

In one final act of anguish, the Witch writhes and thrashes about, knocking over platforms and demolishing bits of scenery before ultimately disintegrating into black particles of nothingness. With the defeat of the Witch, the labyrinth collapses and everyone returns to reality outside the hospital.

"Thanks for your help," Mami says to Naruto No problem," he replies as he removed his mask. "But you really should be thanking Homura."

"Sensei!" Madoka gasps as soon as she recognizes Naruto. Sayaka lets out a similar response. "Yo!" is Naruto's typical response. "I'll have to admit, you girls have quite the interesting after school past time. It sure beats ordinary club activities."

"Again, I thank you," Mami asserts, "but I'll not have anything to do with her." She is, of course, referring to Homura, who is now freed of Mami's magical binds and is approaching the group. "The two of you have had a close shave with death," Homura addresses Madoka and Sayaka while completely ignoring Mami. "Let this serve as a warning if you still have thoughts of becoming Puella Magi."

"Cold as ever, eh?" Naruto comments as he watches Homura and Mami stare down each other. "I suppose that or can't be helped under normal circumstances, but the two of you owe me a favour." Mami and Homura instantly comprehend Naruto's words and are somewhat uncomfortable with the unexpected request, though Homura manages to hide her dismay much better than Mami.

"I… I suppose I do owe you thanks for trying to warn me about the Witch." Mami finally breaks the silence and extends a hand towards Homura. "So… for Naruto-san's sake, I'm sorry that I ignored your warning and tied you up earlier." Homura seems reluctant at first, but then she notices Madoka observing her with a hopeful look in her eyes, so she finally gives in and takes Mami's hand. "Apology accepted.

"Alright, now how about some cake at Mami's place?" Sayaka responds enthusiastically, trying to break the somewhat tense atmosphere that remains despite the truce. Kyubey, on the other hand, stares perplexed at Naruto's attempts to unite the girls.

Back to Naruto homeworld

.Angelique now stand in front of very large being which was about 22 metres tall and white colored. That being was non other than RX-0 Unicorn Gundam . Angelique also cannot hide is amusement as that Mobile Suit was built not only by technology alone but also magic and the ones doing that was none other than Pony Summons. (Yes I decided Pony will be the ones help to build the Gundam ) .

The Gundam features was NTD aka NewType Destroyer . That system used Psycoframe to enable pilot fighting efficiently agains enemy suit who using Funnel or bits or any other kind of remote weapons. And to reduce strain caused by Psycoframe it balanced by Bio-Computer System.

As it names implies, Bio-computer is similar in structure of human brain, and its operating processes resemble human thoughts and feelings. Rather than merely displaying data on monitor, the bio-computer can relay it directly to the pilot in the form of sensory information, so what the machine "feels" can also be experienced by the human operator.

As for the arsenal , it armed with 60mm Vulcan gun , 4 Beam Saber which also can shaped to Beam Tonfa as defensive measure, Beam Magnum which was equivalent of 4 beam rifle and also Beam Rifle . And Shield which also have equipped by I Feld Generator which capable to deflect mega particle beam. And that was main arsenal.

As for additional arsenal there is also Beam Gatling gun, Beam Machine gun , Hyper Bazooka, Grenade launcher which also set up by Grenade rack, Missile launcher which was attached to Hyper Bazooka and Beam Javelin.

Not only Unicorn Gundam , Ange also build the variant like Unicorn Gundam Banshee which black colored and Unicorn Gundam Phenex with Gold Colored . Both have same regular equipment like regular Unicorn (Not additional equipment) But both also some special feature.

For Banshee, it have Psycoframe weapon which can attached in either left or right arm called Armed Armor VN. It can transform into claw and uses super vibrating vise like claws to effectively destroy Mobile Suits. It also equipped by anti beam coating and also can used as shield . And other was Armed Armor BS which used as long range Beam Smart Gun. And it also capable to directing fins which help to attack or defense .

And lastly Phenex, In its backpack was Armed Armor DE with mega cannon and propulsion system . That backpack alsoshaped like a pair of wings.

There is also back up plan where Unicorn will used all Armed Armor used by Phenex and Banshee but it will another time to tell.

And they also build mass produced mobile suit as army and Ange decided settled with Geara Zulu and Stark Jegan as Naruto once mentioned he want Universal Century taste

Back to Naruto in Puella Magi world

. Things have quiet down a bit after the last Witch incident. Homura and Mami have come to an uncomfortable truce, and it seems like they has some kind of secret plan going on as they have been meeting regularly to prepare for some future event. Madoka and Sayaka have not fully given up on becoming Puella Magi; Madoka hasn't spoken much of it since the incident while Sayaka has been looking rather down, but she has been keeping her thoughts to herself. Kyubey has not been spotted so far, or at least it managed to stay out of Naruto's sight.

It was purely a chance meeting when Naruto crossed paths with Madoka, so they decided to take walk together and have a little chat. She was interested in his background and, seeing him try to get Homura and Mami to get along, he's become somewhat of an inspirational figure to her. The two continue with some light banter as they walk down the streets of Mitakihara.

"Oh look, it's Hitomi," Madoka exclaims after noticing a girl up ahead. She has long shoulder-length blonde hair and a fair complexion, suggesting a well-off family recognizes her too – she is one of Madoka's classmates.

"Hitomi-chan!" Madoka calls out to her friend, but her greeting is oddly ignored. "Hitomi-chan, what's wrong?" asks Madoka again as she approaches her friend. The girl seems to be in some sort of daze, walking with an odd and sluggish gait not unlike sleepwalking. Then Madoka notices a mark on her neck, just underneath the left side of her chin.

Naruto notices the mark too – it is a Witch's Kiss, a symbol that seals the doom of its victim. They learnt about this from their first meet with Tomoe Mami. Whomever bears this mark tends strongly towards suicidal behavior.

"Ah, Miss Kaname, how do you do?" Hitomi suddenly answers in a very formal tone. "What's wrong with you? Where are you going?" Asked Madoka

"I'm off to a land far better than this one," Hitomi answers with a dreamy look. "Ah, right, Miss Kaname. Please come with me." She grabs Madoka's hand and drags her along. "Why yes! That's wonderful," she continues, speaking to herself. Madoka reluctantly follows her spellbound friend, thinking that she cannot just ignore her at all.

Naruto isn't liking the turn of events at all, but he quietly tags along as he silently walked behind both girls. Hitomi is now walking and humming cheerfully to herself as Madoka sheepishly follows, looking very concerned. "What should we do, sensei? If only Mami or Homura were here, but I don't have their phone numbers." "Don't worry," Naruto reassures her. "I'm here. I'll make sure nothing happens to both of you."

They soon realize that Hitomi is leading them towards the industrial district of Mitakihara. Even more disturbingly, they seem to be attracting a crowd of similarly-affected individuals. Walking like zombies, they drag themselves towards one of the nearby warehouses. Once inside, a few of them begin closing windows and locking doors while the rest start scavenging for various chemical containers stored within the complex. One of them carries an empty pail, and they begin mixing various chemicals into the pail.

As the chemicals begin to mix and start emitting a pungent ordour, Both Madoka and Naruto quickly arrive to the same conclusion. "Stand back," Naruto gestures towards Madoka. "I'll take care of this." "You mustn't interfere," Hitomi interjects and stands in Naruto's way. "This is a holy ceremony."

While Naruto and Hitomi are preoccupied with each other, Madoka makes a snap decision to act and athletically dashes past them. She quickly wrests the chemical concoction from the group and hurls it at the window. With a crash, the pail shatters the glass and carries the deadly chemical out of the warehouse.

Madoka's rash action has attracted the retribution of the crowd, who are clearly displeased with her. A number of them start to shuffle angrily towards her, while the rest turn on Naruto. Faced with a human wall, he can't reach Madoka in time so he yells for her to run and hide.

Madoka finds herself inside a nearby store room and locks the door, while Naruto quickly considers his next move. He doesn't want to fight these people, since they are clearly ordinary humans who've been entranced by a Witch. As he weighs his options, the world turns surreal – the Witch has finally made its presence known.

Scene Change

Madoka is falling. She is in a spinning well of images, film reels and merry-go-rounds, falling endlessly as dancing television screens show images of her past few days of Puella Magi, Kamen Rider and Witches. Anyone else would have thought that they have gone insane, but Madoka realizes that she is in a Witch's Labyrinth.

Small little winged humanoid-like things, like cherubs, approach and grab both her hands and feet. They start to play a tug-o-war with each other with her limbs as rope, pulling her apart like a medieval torture rack.

Suddenly, something blue and white dashes past faster than the eye can follow. With each pass, it rips into one of the creatures holding Madoka, slaying them one at a time until finally she is finally free from their torturous grip. Finally, the blurred figure charges towards a large television set at the bottom of the well, slamming into it with such a fierce determination that it shatters the abomination with one blow. The Witch has been dead, and the world returns to normal.

"Sayaka!" Madoka exclaims in surprise when she recognizes the figure that saved her life. Miki Sayaka's Puella Magi costume is a blue and white dress. Sporting a flowing white cape, she also wears white knee-high socks and blue shoes, and is armed with and elegant and classy long sword.

"I can't believe you actually did it," Naruto comments from across the room . "Lucky for you that I did," Sayaka replies as she admires her own costume. It is quite obvious that this is her first transformation. "I can't believe you couldn't even handle a bunch of middle-aged men." "To be fair, I don't fight ordinary humans."

Two more figures hurriedly approach, but stop and relax when they realize Madoka and the rest are safe. "You're both late," Sayaka declares as soon as she notices the arrival of Akemi Homura and Tomoe Mami. Then an unfamiliar voice speaks. "That's not the way to talk to your sempai!"

A third figure emerges from an adjacent rooftop. Stepping out of the shadows is a feisty young redhead clad in a red dress. She appears to be around the same age as the rest of the girls. In her right hand, she wields a long staff with a large jewel-encrusted spearhead. In her other hand, a box of chocolate-flavoured Pocky sticks. "A very sloppy act too," she continues as she draws another Pocky stick into her mouth. "The Witch didn't even drop a grief seed; you should have let it go, and waited until it ate a few people before properly ending it."

Visibly disturbed by those words, Sayaka shouts back at the newcomer. "Who the hell are you?" The redhead, instead of answering, casually flicks back her hair and then makes a somersaulting leap from her high vantage point down towards the group, landing in front of Sayaka with her spear pointed threateningly. She then gestures for Sayaka to draw her sword as well.

"Sakura Kyouko…" mutters Homura under her breath. "Kyouko, I called you here to discuss the coming of Walpurgisnacht, not to engage in another needless conflict," Mami says disappointedly at Kyouko. "Sure, but seeing this newbie here with her tough act just pisses me off!" Kyouko replies nonchalantly

Madoka tries to intervene by stepping in front of Sayaka. "Why are you doing this? You're also a Magical Girl, why are you picking a fight with Sayaka-chan?" "Oh great, not only are you annoying but you have annoying friends as well," Kyouko snaps back.

Naruto is watching the conflict enfold with amusement, but is ready to react the moment things turn violent. Kyouko, a veteran Magical Girl who's no stranger to combat and violence, easily identifies the combatants from the noncombatants, so she instinctively marks Naruto as a threat. "Don't try anything funny," she says. "I don't know who you are, but I've got my eye on you."

"If a fight's what you want, then I'll gladly give it to you," Sayaka arrogantly responds as she draws her sword. Mami also responds in turn by conjuring a long bore musket and levelling it at Kyouko. Homura appears beside Sayaka with a .357 Desert Eagle drawn. Naruto already draw his Kamikaze in case fight cannot be avoided "Please stop this at once," Mami commands. "Hmm. It looks like I'm outnumbered this time," Kyouko says, stating the obvious. "I'll retreat for now, but don't let any of this get over your head, newbie!"

Kyouko leaps back up towards the rooftop by making several quick jumps, using her spear to provide leverage and thrust as she bounces off one wall after another. As quickly as she appeared, she disappears into the night. "I was a bit apprehensive for asking Kyouko's help at first," Mami says to Homura, "but now that we have Miki Sayaka, we no longer need that girl anymore." "Agreed." Replied Homura

With Naruto

While Naruto walked going home he once again confronted Kyubey . After some silence Kyubey asked, "Do you understand the concept of entropy and heat death ? The universe will eventually die and the only way to continually extend its life is to constantly inject energy into the universe, prolonging the time till heat death."

This is all a fascinating concept for a science professor but Naruto is still baffled at where all this is going. "So how are Magical Girls and Witches related to this?"

"We Incubators have been experimenting with alternate forms of energy to find the most sustainable and efficient source that can be used to prevent heat death. However, most conventional forms of energy proved to be suboptimal for the objective at energy, however, is a very promising source that has been exceeding our expectations so far. When a young human adolescent girl becomes a Magical Girl, the emotional energy from her hopes and wishes can be harnessed into a very usable form. But what's even more fascinating is what happens when all the positive emotions that the young girl radiates is overcome by despair. The very moment a Magical Girl becomes a Witch, there is a sudden surge of energy from that conversion unlike anything we have encountered before. It is a highly efficient source of energy that we can easily harness and control."

Naruto's heard enough. "You know, Kyubey," he mutters as he turns around and begins to walk away. "You talk too much."

"If you continue to interfere, we will be forced to deal with you." Kyubey threatened

"You think you can scared me eh, Kyubey" Naruto repliedas he continues walking back to Uzumaki Hardwares. "In any case, you'll have to get in line first."

Few days later

BANG BANG BANG BANG

The sound of Akemi Homura's M249 squad automatic weapon thunders across the Witch's enclosed space, spewing hundreds of bullets and ripping apart dozens of familiars that are swarming around her and Naruto.

Naruto meanwhile as usual firing Buster rifle ut instead regular beam shot he unleashed long line beam and he also doing several turn as he firing Buster rifle to easily eliminate the swarming creature of darkness

The pair then turn their attention to the horrific abomination before them: a giant bird cage that holds a pair of bloodied, stamping feet.

BUSTER RIFLE LOCK ON

Naruto then firing large wave of Beam from his Buster Rifle and explosively slams into one side of the bird cage, severely wrecking the caged construct and toppling it over on its side. Akemi Homura then magically appears beside Naruto after depositing several M9 hand grenades onto the fallen Witch in stopped time.

The Witch, and its barrier, collapses in a thunderous roar as the grenades do their work mercilessly.

"Tonight is a very busy night," Naruto comments after undoing his transformation. He throws a glance at Homura who returns a nod indicating her agreement. Even before this fight, they have already run into Tomoe Mami who was en route to intercept another Witch, while Kaname Madoka was rushing in the opposite direction, muttering something about needing to see Miki Sayaka in a hurry.

"Kyubey is up to something."

Meanwhile on other places

Atop a fairly wide and spacious footbridge, two figures stand facing one another while a small white creature intently watches from the sidelines. "No holding back up here," says Sakura Kyouko as she reveals her Soul Gem and transforms into her Puella Magi form. "Let's put on a good show." Miki Sayaka returns the gesture and transforms into her radiant blue swordswoman appearance.

The two of them hold up their weapons in a guarded stance, circling warily around one another, waiting for the right moment to strike. However, the match has already been decided as Kyouko is the veteran here with much more combat experience over Sayaka, who only contracted less than a week ago. She easily spots an opening in Sayaka's stance and moves in to strike.

Kyouko's spear lunges like a deadly snake, thrusting in and out while Sayaka barely manages to dodge every one of them. This is all according to Kyouko's plan, as each attack throws Sayaka further off balance and forces her into a weaker position without allowing for any time to recover. Soon she is pressed against the side rails of the footbridge with nowhere else to go but down.

Sayaka takes a quick glance over her shoulder, realizing that another push from Kyouko will knock her off the footbridge and into oncoming traffic. Kyouko, on the other hand, takes advantage of this temporary lapse of focus to make one final, deadly lunge at Sayaka's exposed vitals… and misses.

Kyouko stares, dumbfounded, for a moment before realizing that Sayaka has been whisked away by Akemi Homura's unorthodox fighting skills – something that Kyouko has not been able to study and figure out yet. Kyouko moves to intercept, but is blocked by a sudden blur of movement. It was Naruto who grabs hold of Kyouko's arm and pulls her further away from Sayaka. Once they are reasonably far apart, he lets her go and clocks down to normal speed.

"Quit getting in the way!" Kyouko snaps at Naruto while menacing him with her spear. "This is not the time to fight," Homura interjects.

"Sayaka-chan!" Kaname Madoka has finally caught up with the group, nearly collapsing from the exhaustion of running halfway across the city. "You seem keen on interfering," Kyubey addresses Naruto. "What do you hope to achieve from this manner of activity?"

"To stop you from making more Witches, of course." Replied Naruto casually

That last bit of exchange hit both Kyouko and Sayaka like a surprise shot in the gut. Even Madoka is staring with her mouth agape, while Homura observes quietly at this unexpected turn of events.

Kyubey continues to argue with Naruto, unfazed by the expressions of the girls and totally ignorant on the implications of its words. "And how do you suppose this will end if you prevent new Witches from birthing and stemming the flow of energy?"

"I don't care about something that isn't going to happen in another million years. Or billion. Whenever. But right now you are taking advantage of the innocence of young girls, corrupting them and ultimately turning them into the very monsters you made them fight."

"What the hell is he saying?" Kyouko can no longer remain calm after hearing this exchange. "That we will become Witches?" Madoka is driven to tears at Kyouko's conclusion and can only hug her friend, Sayaka even tighter. "Oh Sayaka… I'm so sorry… Sayaka…."

Sayaka continues to remain silent, her head down in shock as Madoka pours all her grief and sorrow onto her. "Such a wasted opportunity," Kyubey observes after fixating its gaze on Madoka. "As she is now, she would have become the most powerful of all Witches, and might have provided so much energy that it would advance our efforts by several millennia, at the minimum."

"What then?" Naruto has never felt angrier in his life. He's seen all manner of evils and atrocities during his countless travels across worlds, but to have this small little creature toy with the emotions of innocent girls like they were cattle, is both unthinkable and unforgivable. "What happens after you've achieved your energy quota?"

"Obviously, we'll be done with our work and will return home." Kyubey says it like just another day at work, not understanding the implications of his remarks towards just about any sane human being with hopes and dreams.

BLAM!

Kyubey bursts into a bloodied red pulp as a shot rings out from the darkness. As everyone looks in the direction of the shooter, yellow ribbon-like tendrils snake out from the ground and engulf Homura in a familiar vice-like grip.

"If… if we're all going to become Witches eventually… then we should all just die now." Said Maki

"Mami, stop!" Homura yells at Tomoe Mami. No one knows how long she had been there nor how much she heard, but it was definitely enough to break her. Now Mami is pointing another gun at Homura.

Naruto quickly interposes himself in front of Homura, while Kyouko turns to face this new threatening situation with her spear at the ready. Sayaka is still in shock and remains in the arms of Madoka.

"Please… get… out of the way." Warned Mami in shaky tone

Naruto does not move. "Put the gun down, Tomoe Mami. I understand what you're going through…" "You don't understand anything at all!" Tears start rolling down Mami's face. "This is my life… my dreams… my hopes… that you're talking about!"

"And this is exactly why I'm telling you to stop," Naruto counters. "Mami, it's your dreams and your hopes you're throwing away now. You wouldn't want it to end just like that, without putting up a fight at all, would you?" "Naruto is right," Homura solemnly speaks. "It's not over yet. If you give in now, you're just giving Kyubey exactly what it wants."

"Homura-chan…" Madoka is surprised at hearing the compassion in Homura's voice. She's never heard that side of her before; she has always only seen the aloof part of Homura. "I don't know how this will turn out, but I'd rather go down fighting than let Kyubey get the better of me," Kyouko says, putting up a brave front. This is enough to touch Sayaka, who now also wants to act brave and strong like Kyouko. They are still rivals, after all.

At this point Mami is already on her knees, sobbing like a girl who had just been dumped by her boyfriend. She has completely lost her concentration and this releases Homura from her ribbon trap. Naruto walks towards her and extends his hand to give support. Kyouko follows his lead and extends her hand too. Then even Miki Sayaka gets up on her feet with the help of Madoka, and together they slowly walk over to Mami and offer their hands together. Homura is the last to join the group. "Let's get through this together."

As the five girls comfort one other, another Kyubey appears and starts devouring its former body, completely removing evidence that it was ever killed. Homura notices this disgusting act from the corner of her eye but ignores it, having seen this several times before.

'Looks like I'm not needed now' , Naruto thinks as he turns around and walks into the shadow of the night.

Time Skip

Walpurgisnacht, a Witch so strong that it doesn't need to hide inside the closed dimensional space of a Witch's barrier. Its presence alone can cause significant casualties, and ordinary humans would only perceive it as some freak natural disaster. A single Puella Magi has no chance of defeating such a powerful Witch; it requires a group of coordinated Magical Girls acting as a team. And so the planning begins.

"How do you know that Walpurgisnacht will strike here?" Sakura Kyouko asks. "There hasn't been any indication of it passing by this region." "Statistics." Akemi Homura's response is short and succinct. She obviously knows a greater deal about this event than any other Puella Magi, but she feels that it is not the time to discuss it at this time.

Uzumaki Naruto, Miki Sayaka, Tomoe Mami and Kaname Madoka are also present at this important meeting. They have all gathered at Mami's apartment, who is serving cake and tea while the discussions are underway. Her hands are still shaking as she pours her specialty brew into each cup; it is obvious that she hasn't fully recovered from previous revelations. Madoka notices this and offers to help, but Mami tries to be strong and politely refuses.

"Curious about your statistics," Naruto ponders. "Wouldn't it benefit the rest of us to know exactly what you've been keeping to yourself for so very long?" Homura briefly considers Naruto's request, then brushes it aside. "You shouldn't force yourself to carry a heavy burden if you have friends to help carry it for you." Naruto has some idea about how Homura knows so much about the other girls, and about events to come but he wants to hear some confirmation from her.

From an empty corner of the room, comes a familiar voice that causes everyone to tense up. "I'm very curious about what you have to say too." Kyouko is quick to act, projecting a magical spear directly out of her Soul Gem towards Kyubey. "Nobody invited you."

"I seem to have struck a nerve. But really, I'm here merely to share my observations." "No one wants to hear your observations," Madoka admonishes the creature as she clutches on to Sayaka protectively. "Haven't you hurt us enough already?" "Silly girl," Kyubey retorts. "I have never intentionally tried to hurt any of you at all. Everything that has happened is completely based on your own actions. I am merely a guide and an enabler in this respect."

"There you go talking in riddles again," Kyouko says. "So what the hell did you want to say? Speak up and then get lost." "It is just my analysis about Akemi Homura," Kyubey begins. "I have been observing your powers and calculating your motives based on your actions. You're not from this time period at all, are you?" Homura remains silent in light of Kyubey's accusations.

"Your powers are related to time manipulation, are they not?" Homura continues to give Kyubey the silent treatment, so Naruto decides to say something in her stead. "So what if they are? What does it matter to you?" Kyubey turns its attention to Naruto. "This correlates with everything I have observed about Akemi Homura. Her foreknowledge of subjects, people and events suggests she's from an alternate timeline. You've also come to this conclusion on your own, have you not, Naruto?"

"I don't see how this matters." 'Of course it matters, thinks Naruto, but I'm just baiting you to see if your conclusions match.' "Simply, the matter is Akemi Homura's motives. What she's trying to accomplish by interfering with my plans. This all centers around Kaname Madoka. This is just one of the many time loops that you have gone through to prevent her from contracting with me, haven't you?"

Everyone can see now that Homura is struggling very hard to keep her emotions in check. It feels like she's either going to explode and reign explosive death on Kyubey, or she's about to burst into tears, but no one wants to be the first to act. They are also still very curious about Kyubey's theories, so it is allowed to continue speaking for now. "Your silence betrays you, Akemi Homura. In each time loop that you have sought to prevent Kaname Madoka from contracting with me, you have made her a bigger target to me." Those words struck Homura like a stab through the heart. "What do you mean?" Asked Naruto

"Usually a girl's potential as a Puella Magi is related to her status and karma. Normally only very special individuals like queens and visionaries would have such high potential. But Kaname Madoka, an ordinary school girl, has the potential to become the most powerful Magical Girl in existence because of your meddling, Akemi Homura. In each timeline you forcefully bend her fate, always trying to stop her from becoming a Magical Girl, and thus making her the most important person in the universe." A single tear has started to trickle down Homura's closed eyes. It doesn't look like she can hold out much longer.

"In short, the more you loop back to alter the timeline, the heavier the burden you place on Kaname Madoka as the fate every aborted timeline is bound to her. This karmic imbalance is the reason she has such great potential." "I think you've said enough!" Madoka snaps at Kyubey angrily. "I think you should leave now!"

"Madoka…" Homura is moved by the outburst; it was her wish to protect Madoka, yet the roles are reversed again. "If that's how you feel," Kyubey nonchalantly responds. "Anyway, I've said what I've come to say. I shall leave you all now." "Madoka…" Homura repeats again as more tears start to flow down her cheek. Madoka moves forward to give Homura a hug. The rest of the girls follow in turn, while Naruto averts his gaze and watches Kyubey to make sure it really leaves.

"Cry all you want, Homura. We're here for you, and we'll all get through this… together."

'What's with this lovey dovey all of a sudden', Naruto thinks to himself.
