Okay, I was working the whole week on the last few episodes. I'm really stressed as I'm working on multiple fanfics at once, so I had to finish one so I could concentrate on the other fics and on school. Oh, and yeah, Tomoe Mami's Witch appears in this chapter. Though Miku here reminds me more on Sayaka.
Entry 26: I'll never be good enough
I and Yuri noticed at school Miku apporaching Kalin. It seemed like she wanted to tell him something.
"Wonder what they're talking about?" I muttered.
"Miku-chan's in love with Kalin-kun and wants to confess her feelings to him." said Yuri.
"But dosen't Kalin-kun..." I trailed off. Yuri simply nodded. We both knew Miku will be greatly dissapointed.
"I need to talk to you, Kalin." said Miku.
"What is it, Miku-chan." Kalin smiled at her. Miku smiled back. There really was hope for her.
"I-I... I'm really happy when I'm around you..." she started.
"Me too. Friends are here to make each other happy, ain't they?" said Kalin. Miku gave a shy smile.
"Y-yes. But I wanted to tell you that I..."
"Kalin!"
The two turned around and saw a brunette running towards Kalin and, much to Miku's horror, kissed him.
"Hi, Kira. I see you're back!" said Kalin, pretty happy to see her.
"Aha. You have no idea how I missed you!" replied the girl. Kalin hugged her.
"I missed you too." replied Kalin and kissed her again.
"Who's this?" asked Miku, who was frozen for a moment.
"Ah, yes, Miku-chan, meet Kira. She's my girlfriend. Kira, this is Miku-chan, an old friend of mine." said Kalin.
"Nice too meet you." said Kira. Miku boiled.
"Yeah, nice to meet you too." she said darkly.
"Say, what did you want to tell me?" asked Kalin.
"Nothing." Miku replied and walked away. She was devastated.
After she got out of Kalin's eyesight, she runned towards the toilet and locked herself up and started to cry.
"How could I ever believe he would like me? I'm a monster!" she cried. She had now nothing to do with her life.
She remembered Asuna and the way she died. She then remembered Yumi, who fell into despair and became a Witch.
"All because of my stupid wish!" she hissed. She sighed, wondering what she should do now. She could kill herself, but that would be just stupid. It would mark her as a poor girl who couldn't bear the fact she was a monster.
Miku brought the decision.
Instead of becoming a monster, she'll hunt them until her last breath.

Stella was on her way to her ballet classes as she saw Miku running towards something.
'Did she find an another Witch?' thought Stella. She then looked at her bag with her ballet outfit and then at Miku who dissapeared out of her sight.
She sighed. Her Puella Magi life was now a bigger priority.
Miku entered the barrier and immediantly started to kill the Familiars. They looked like waitresses with red and pink hair.
They were the dress-up witch's minions, whose task is to guide visitors. They invite humans who enter the witch's barrier to her tea party. When they try to run away from her, the witch ties their hands and feet together. They are precious friends of the witch.
The landscape of the barrier had teacups, rainbow bridges and apple trees, along with the inverted color of the sky, stired up an sense of unease. On the wall was a line on which stood "Happy Birthday."
Miku didn't pay any attention to those details. She just wanted to kill the Witch.
She fired her arrows at each minion which neared her, dodging their arrow and long-range multiple spear attacks. One of the spear attacks cut her, but she quickly healed, countining madly her dance of death.
Stella twirled and kicked the last Familiar away. She was worried about Miku. Finnaly, she entered the last lair and saw Miku fighting of the Witch. The lair looked like a tea-cup party. On the tag she wore were the runes CANDELORO DU POLIGNAC written on it.
The Witch was Candeloro, the witch of dress-up. She has an inviting nature. A kind-hearted witch who dreams of ideal things. This witch can't stand being lonely, and never lets visitors to her barrier escape. And speaking of never letting visitors escape, she had Kalin and Kira tied up and knocked unconsicious. Stella noticed they had Witch Kisses on their necks which looked a bit like torsos.
Miku was encircled by the Familiars, who were pretty offensive. She escaped an arrow attack from the pink Familiar, but the red one hit her with her spear attack.
Suddenly, Candeloro, which looked like a dress up puppet, summoned several ribbons and tied Miku, making her unable to fight back.
"Crime Ballet!" Stella jumped in and kicked Candeloro away. She then cut the ribbons.
"Are you okay?" she asked. Miku looked at her and then past her.
"Watch out!" she yelled as Candeloro fired a rifle-like attack, hitting Stella in the back. Stella fell on her knees.
"Stella!" Miku yelled, and angrily turned to Candeloro who took the possesion of the pink Familiar and fired an arrow. "Take this!"
"TIRO FINALE!" The Witch countered with a flame like attack which came out of a cannon which appeared in mid air.
The two attacks collided, creating an explosion. Miku prepeared an another arrow. Stella noticed that Candeloro had no chance of survival this time.
'Return to Zero.' she thought.
"And go!" she yelled and fired it at the Witch. It pierced right through the chest of the Witch, making her dissapear.
The ribbons which tied Kira and Kalin dissapeared, but they were still unconsicious. Miku looked at them with a dark expression on her face and then she shook her head.
'I'll never be good enough for him.' she thought and left, paying no attention to the Grief Seed.
"Take care of them." she told Stella, who recovered from Candeloro's shot. Stella looked at her, with a calm expression, concered about her state. She then picked up the Grief Seed which top and bottom emblem was a flower. She didn't bother to tell Miku to use it.
Miku had already chosen her fate.
