Flash slammed into the new ghoul, which looked like a skeletal snowman, Green Lantern willed a flamethrower into existence.
"Burn away" Flash getting out of the way to see a flame digging into the icy monster, Flash smiled before zipping back over sending his fist into the melted snow to grab the grief seed.
"Got it!" Flash withdrawing his hand away as the monster roared turning into slush slowly as he swiped at Flash.
"Incoming" Batman shouted throwing a couple of explosive batarangs into the arm, while Green Lantern willed a hammer to smash the head off into a wall. The Ghoul's barrier melted away.
"Here" Flash said tossing the Grief seed to Naruto who put it in the pouch.
"I got to ask how do you get rid of those anyway?"
"I locked them away until I can find a proper way" Naruto said still in his Green Lantern form.
"Understood" Batman said activating his wings and taking to the sky. "I'll see you later"
"Same here, I'm hungry and I saw an American style Pizza joint back there, I feel like Italian"
"Alright, get going the shop closes in half an hour and I suggest you try the Meat Lovers" Green Lantern laughed as the scarlet speedster took off. Seeing he was on his own Naruto powered down. He sighed these two had made Ghoul hunts easier, but while he was hunting these ghouls, the girls were hunting witches without him and Homura. Plus Madoka wasn't able to use her Hope powers without him nearby.
"Well, you look tired" a voice said as something leapt up onto his shoulder
"Hello, Kyubey where have you been"
"The hivemind has tried to disconnect me from that exposure to Willpower energy" Kyubey said glaring at the blonde "And I have been observing these ghouls"
"Anything interesting?"
"Not really, all that we know is that they're human made" Kyubey said
"Really! Well why you take the rest of the day off Sherlock" Naruto growled.
"That was sarcasm wasn't it" Kyubey said
"Yah think" Naruto said.
"Anyway just be lucky that most of the intergalactic witches are not here yet. Because whatever created this ghouls are scaring them off. Every now again one lands in this city, but the girls take care of it" Kyubey said flicking his tail back and forth.
"Man, the intergalactic witches are here already. I better stop these ghouls and help them." Naruto said.
The next day Sayaka was bummed out a bit, considering she had to endure seeing Hitomi and Kyosuke together in a loving relationship. One she wanted, but no matter what she couldn't even thought she was brought back due to the white light. She was even unable to cheer up when the group met up at lunchtime, for Hitomi had joined the girls while Naruto and Yosuke went to eat outside. It was killing her inside. She had confessed but it was rejected and she was designated as a twin to the young boy who she had her heart set.
"Excuse me, I need to head to the library" she said walking away. Most of the girls saw this and looked dismayed.
"Poor Sayaka" Madoka said
"I know, it's kind of saddening isn't it?" Kyoko asked.
"Maybe I shouldn't have been so"
"It's not your fault Hitomi" Madoka said placing her hand on Hitomi's "She'll be okay"
"I'm not so sure" Homura said
"Homura" Mami growled.
"Man this place is great don't you think?" Yosuke said smiling
"Sure is man, but it would be even better without all the things wrong with this city" Naruto said
But hey you've got the Green Lantern and the Flash, all we had was the police and a small selection of military troops" Yosuke laughed
"Yeah we surely do" Naruto laughed.
"So what do you do for fun around here?"
"The Arcade mostly, the mall and cinemas are always popular. Some take up fishing, and that's it"
"Man for a city it sure is sleepy" Yosuke said
"You have to be adult for all the exciting stuff, like the Nightclub district"
"You guys have a Nightclub district?" Yosuke asked amazed
"Yep, that's where all the pubs, bars and nightclubs are. Plus some other places, but if you want a nice date there is always the restaurant plaza where you can see the stars reflecting in the river while you dine by candlelight. Sorry it's kind of a favourite place for me to take Mami" Naruto blushed.
"You are something you know, I haven't seen two teenagers in love so much. It's like you two are soul mates" Yosuke said
"I guess, well come on the bell's gone" Naruto said helping up Yosuke. "We're gonna be late"
"Well then let's go" Yosuke laughed running past Naruto.
It was sunset when Sayaka was walking home alone feeling melancholy. She had to endure the hardship of seeing her friends in love. Once she turned in a witch because of this situation. She didn't know if she could endure it a second time. Looking around she spotted Hitomi and Kyosuke holding hands and walking in the other direction while they snuck in a quick kiss. By now Sayaka was feeling ready to give up again and took off leaving behind a trail of tears.
"Why can't that be me?' she cried out in her mind. 'Why can't I be the one to have a relationship with Kyosuke' images of what may have been if she was quicker entered her mind just adding to her despair. Suddenly she ran into someone who stopped and wrapped their arms around her holding her tightly as she cried. She felt their hands comforting her.
"Let it all out, you'll feel better trust me" a voice said sagely ad Sayaka just cried harder at these words.
Yosuke had been on his way home when he saw a pair of teenagers kissing. Smiling as he though the sight was sweet, but soon he saw the blue hair girl Sayaka about to break out in tears. Knowing he lived closed by in the other direction to her, he sighed knowing what he had to do. Using his ability to get home drop off his bag and grab his black jacket, he raced back to the path and waited until Sayaka ran into him. Once she did he closed his arms around her and comforted her.
"Let it all out, you'll feel better trust me" Yosuke said as she cried harder.
"Why, why don't I feel love? Is it because I'm not loved?" she asked as Yosuke just held her. He smiled sadly knowing what she going through, having going through this situation before
'Why, did I do something wrong is that why I'm not loved?' he old thought echoed.
"No, it's not that everyone is loved whether it be by a friend or parents. Sometimes we have to wait until the right person comes along with the kind of love you're waiting for" Yosuke said as he felt her head look at him.
"And when will I know what that is?" Sayaka asked.
"You just do" Yosuke whispered leaning down and Sayaka rose up to meet him, together they meet their lips in the middle sharing a kiss. This one was different than the ones Yosuke had thought about. Sayaka knew she was vulnerable, but she didn't care she needed this and she could feel like he did as well. The pair stopped and drew back staring into each other's eyes.
"That was" Sayaka gasped.
"Yeah" Yosuke agreed going back in for another one each Sayaka gladly agreed to with a twinkle in her eyes as she wrapped her arms around his neck drawing him in deeper.
'I love her/him' the thought as they pulled apart looking into each other's eyes smiling
"you...um, want to go have dinner?" Yosuke asked.
"Yeah sure" Sayaka blushed. "Any where in particular?"
"I heard about this little place where you can see the stars reflected in the river by candlelight
"Sounds nice" Sayaka said.
That night Homura closed a book she was reading and placed her glasses on top of them. She sensed something
"looking for a rematch, or are you here to perv on me again Batman?" she asked the shadows.
"When did I perv on you?"
"When I was dancing Kazuto" Homura answered.
"Very clever, so how did you figure it out?" Kirito asked lowering his mask.
"You just told me, plus I sensed you when I was in the hall and now, but I couldn't when I was fighting you" Homura said
"So you know my secret, what should I do with you, silence you?"
"Without dinner first I don't think so?"
"Interesting idea, but unfortunately for you I'm all booked up. So how about another time?" Kirito asked.
"I'm free next week" Homura snarked.
"I'll meet you at the train station next Saturday at six o'clock. Oh and wear something nice" Batman smirked taking off.
"Show off" Homura said before realising what she just did. 'Did I just agree to go on a date with him' she looked around grabbing the pillow behind her and screamed into it
"SON OF A BITCH!"
Okay I'm sorry about the feels but I kind of just avoided the issue of Sayaka's emotions about her friends relationship and how it is affecting her. I know it probably wasn't the best way to handle it, but who cares what's done is done.
Also I'm not sure if that last bit with Homura helped relieve some of the feels. So why the Time Turner and the Futuristic Dark Knight as a pairing, should be fun expect the date next update and a hint of fanservice
