Starting with the new week, I'll be posting the chapters every friday. I still need 4 more OCs though.

So, enjoy, R&R!

Entry 04: I want to learn more

I cut down all the Familiars that got into my way. Yukio helped me, well, somehow. He teared the Familiars apart that attacked him with his nails which glew and turned into sharp claws. We finnaly reached the last door and opened it.

"Woa!" Yukio exclaimed while I dropped my jaw. So, that was the Witch which resided in this Barrier. It looked like a huge, well, bush or some sort of green slime with tentacles (or were it vines?), with roses on the... head? It had orange butterfly wings. It was sitting on a red sofa.

"Summon analyzer." I muttered. I deceided to give all my attacks as well as magical abilities, names. A digital screen with the Witch's picture appeared.

"Gertrud. Type: Rose garden witch. Nature: Distrustful. She holds roses dearer than anything else. She expends all of her power for the sake of beautiful roses. Despite stealing the life-force of humans who wander into her barrier to give to her roses, she loathes the thought of them trampling the inside of her barrier."

"So, she sucks out human life-force? Cool." Yukio chuckled. I smacked him on his head.

"This ain't cool. This is serious. We need to eliminate the Witch before she hurts someone." I said.

"We? You're the one who agreed to do this, not me. I was forced." said Yukio.

"Poor Yukio..." I said in a mocking tone and jumped down, accidentaly stepping on one of the roses (those things were all over the place!). The Witch sensed me immediantly.

She opened her mouth (what the hell?) and screamed loudly, sending black waves which made me fly backwards. I landed into one of the bushes as the Familiars surrounded me.

"Damn!" I hissed. Suddenly, Yukio appeared, cutting apart the Familiars. I blinked in surprise.

"Thanks." I said.

"You can thank me leater. Just get rid off that thing, while I take care for the Familiars." he said as he helped me to get up. I nodded and turned to Gertrud.

However, I noticed someone else already facing her. The girl turned out to be Yuri. She jumped high and summoned hundreds of sais which hit the Witch. She screamed as the sais hit her. Yuri smirked.

"Now, let's end this." she muttered. However she didn't notice what I did.

"Watch out!" I screamed. Too late. Her eyes wided as the Witch jumped and threw the sofa at her. Yuri was hit by it and flew backwards from the impact the sofa made.

"No!" I screamed. Yuri was sure heavily injured. She then was lift by the thorned vines, unconsicious.

"Yuri, wake up!" I yelled. Then I realized that the smaller Familiars also surrounded me and wraped me too with one of the thorned vines. The vines lift me and I dropped my katana. Now, we both were hanging upside down. I gritted my teeth as the thorns were driven into my skin.

"What are you doing here?!" I heared a yell and notices that Yuri was wide awake. She was angry. "I told you to not hunt Witches!"

"Well, you don't seem to be able to hunt them on your own either." I replied with an ironical tone, but glad she was alive. I noticed Yukio fighting off some familiars. I gave a high pitched whistle. "Hey!"

He turned around and sweatdropped as he saw me.

"Can't you do anything on your right?" he asked me.

"Stop asking stupid questions and free me!" I yelled angrily. He then escaped the Familiars and freed us both. We fell down and saw Gertrud nearing us,... holding a huge scissor.

"Get out of my way!" Yuri told me and summoned a huge sai, which she directed at the Witch. However, Gertrud countered it with her scissors, throwing it back to Yuri. She bearly escaped it, breathing heavily. She appeared to have several cuts on her body. I runned to her.

"Are you alright?" I asked.

"No..." she looked at her SG. It was almost black. "Damn... I have not much magic left..."

I then stood up, with an determinated expression on my face. I picked up my katana and faced the Witch. Gertrud snapped with her scissors and I jumped towards her, countering them. She directed the scissors towards me, but I used them as a step to jump higher. I directed my katana towards her. The katana got covered in a black-purplish aura which turned out to be a sort of a shadow katana. I swung with all my might.

"Yami no Kizu!"

I fired a black sickle towards the Witch which cut it in half. With butterflys emerging from it, the Witch gave a shriek and then died. As the barrier slowly dissolved, I walked over to the gem which was left. It was black, with a round top, on which were marks of thorned vines and butterflys.

"So, this is a Grief Seed?" I asked as I transformed back into my normal form. I, Yuri, who also de-transformed (wearing now a red turtleneck long sleeved shirt, a long cream yellow colored scarf, a skirt, black tights and trainers,) Yukio and Kyubey were back underneath the bridge.

"Good job Whitewings." said Yukio, with a smile. I looked at him in surprise. BTW, my surname, Shirohane, means White Wings. I didn't expect that he would congratulate me, less being happy about it. Yuri looked at me angrily, probably because she was after the Grief Seed. She then turned around and walked away.

"Wait." I said. Yuri stopped.

"What?" she asked, turning her head to me. I went to her and placed the GS into her hand.

"Here. I think you'll need it more then I do." I said. She blinked at me, confused. She then took out her SG and placed the GS near it. The GS absorbed some of the black light from the SG, making it clear, though not completely clear. Yuri gave the GS then to me.

"I didn't clear my Soul Gem completely, so you can use it. Since you're a beginner, you'll need all of your magic before you learn how to use it without spending too much." she said. I nodded and cleared my Soul Gem. It was a lot of clearer then Yuri's. I held the black GS. "And what should I do with it?"

Yuri took it as Kyubey apporached her. She then placed it on the oval on his back, which turned like a trapdoor and sucked the GS in.

"Oh." I said and adressed Yuri. "Um, there's something I need to ask you."

"What?" she asked.

Leater, we were in my apartment, particulary in the kitchen. I served some tea and cookies to everyone. Kyubey, who was on the table, and Yukio, who was sitting with an bored look on the chair turned backwards, were more interested in the sweets. Yuri frowned as she glanced at the demon, probably asking herself what the hell is this all about. She took a sip of the cherry tea.

"So, what did you want to ask me?" she asked.

"Well, since I'm still a rookie and pretty unexperienced, I thought you could help me gain more confidence and learn more about my task." I said.

"You seem to be confident enough." she repiled with a sly smirk. "I must say I never saw such a finisher attack."

"Well, thanks, but I needed to do something and that was the first thing which came into my mind. Though, it was more instinctively." I said.

"There. You don't need my help, since you're doing everything instinctively." said Yuri.

"Yes, but I want to learn more. The better I know my enemy the easier I'll defead it." I said with a determinated expression. Yuri blinked in surprise. I then calmed down. "How long have you been a Puella Magi?"

"For a month." she replied. She then bowed her had sideways, observing me. "You seem to be familiar to me. Are you too going to the Akari Middle School? How old are you anyways?"

"I'm 15 and yes, I'm also going there." I said.

"I'm 16." said Yuri and then smirked. "Now I remember. You're that girl everyone rumors about."

I sweatdropped.

"All thanks to him." I pointed at Yukio, who had a sly smile on his face.

"And who is he? Your boyfriend or what?" asked Yuri.

"WE AIN'T A COUPLE!" I and Yukio yelled in unsion. Yuri frowned.

"Okay, okay, you don't have to yell at me. Sheesh." she said and narrowed her eyes. "Though, I'm surprised that a boy can see and hear Kyubey."

"My name is Zetsuba Yukio. And I'm not a normal boy. I'm a demon." he said. Yuri gave me a questioning glance. I sighed.

"I summoned him acidentaly when I was younger and he made hell out my life. For a payback, I wished him to be my guardian." I looked curiously at Yuri. "What was your wish?"

"I...don't want to talk about it." she said, and lowered her head. She then stood up. "I guess I should go now."

"Okay, but could you give me your phone number. I'll call you when a Witch again emerges." I said. Yuri frowned.

"I don't think that'll be needed. I'm hunting Witches alone." she said and walked away. I looked at Yukio, who had a surprised expression on his face and Kyubey, who was quite ignorat.

"Alright. I guess we're on our own." I sighed.

On the other side of the city, a 13 year old girl, who managed to free herself from the cross on which she was wraped. She was inside a barrier, facing the Witch which created it. She had dark orange hair which was in a curly style that went to her shoulders, brown eyes and fair skin. She had an orange short skirt with tights underneath that stopped at her knees, black finger less gloves, tight orange shirt that revealed her belly button and a small orange short sleeved jacket/coat she left undone.

The Witch she faced looked like a heart with her defibrillators resembling twintails. It had some dark marks and it pulsed. Around her were flower bulbs.

The Witch's name was Nie Blühen Herzen and it's Nature was Self Denying. A wounding heart and a wounded heart. Did she think of herself as being rooted to the hospital? Weak point: Poison in medicine. Her cries of 'pchh pchh' are the angry pulsing of her blood vessels.

The girl, Abe Sherrie (pronounced: Cherry), took out her dual swords which were magical clinging on her back and jumped confidently at the Witch. She sliced it in pieces and looked at the GS which was slowly floating down as the Witch died.

"Another Witch killed." she sighed and smiled deviously. "That was fun."
