Entry 29: It dosen't make sense anymore
Stella ate yakitori, her favorite food, with a bitter-sweet smile on her face.
She had it enough. Three girls already died and the rest was panicking too. Yumi died as a Witch, Asuna killed herself, while Miku died to save everyone. Stella wondered if her time had come.
She looked quietly at her SG. Her dream was to become a prima ballerina, but she knew this dream will never come true. Despite her cold appearance, she suffered inside since Yumi's death. She lost herself.
"I'm fighting here day by day, yet it dosen't make sense anymore. If I'm doomed to end like this then so be it."
She pressed the Soul Gem against her chest. Before she'll do what she planned, she deceided to go one last time on a Witch hunt.
She knew her life made no more sense anymore. Her parents sure loved her, but they were always busy and never there for her. Even in a moment of great need, she was alone.
Stella deceided to dance her last dance.
Yuri saw Stella hurring up towards a Witch barrier she too sensed.
"Maybe she'll need help." Yuri muttered under hear breath.
Sayo walked around, lost in her thoughts. She was afraid of becoming a Witch, since her, once green Soul Gem, quickly dimmed. She still fought against it but she felt like her energy was draining her out.
And then she saw them.
Her father, who told her he would be the whole night working, was in the arms of an another woman and they were exiting a pub.
Sayo felt like she's going to vomit. She turned around and runned away.
"How could he do this to me?!" she cried out. The whole time she was worried about him and he was pulling a late night with some stranger. "Why dosen't he show some respect towards my mom? She's dead for God's sake! How could he do this to a dead person?"
Sayo runned into the park and sat on the bench, crying quietly. She rescused her father and he lied to her. Sayo felt the rage and sadness overhelming her.
"Sayo."
She didn't rose her head as she heared Sherrie's voice.
"It's over Sherrie." she muttered. "It's over."
"How do you mean it, it's over?" Sherrie apporached Sayo.
"My life...my soul..." Sayo showed Sherrie her SG. It was at it's limit. Sherrie froze.
"Sayo, no..." Sherrie whispered.
"Goodbye, Sherrie..." Sayo whispered and a teardrop fell on the clover symbol on the top of her SG. It cracked.
"SAYO!" Sherrie yelled as she got engulfed into the barrier.
Stella looked at the Witch. She was Homulilly, the Witch of Mortal World. Stella noticed that her SG was at it's limit.
'So, I guess it ends now...' she thought, looking at the Witch.
Homulilly attacked her with gears, which she gracefully escaped.
"Crime Ballet!" She destroyed one of the bigger gears. However, one hit her from behind and she fell down, de-transforming. She lied on the platform as pain rushed through her body.
"I-I c-can't hold this anymore." she hissed, trying not to cry.
Suddenly, a red thunder hit the gear which might've killed her, saving Stella. Stella looked at her savior, Yuri.
"Come to join me?"
Yuri was stunned with Stella's cold response. Stella smiled sadly and looked around.
"Beautiful, isn't it? The city, our home, infested with hungry monsters. Their opposition: Us, young girls imbued with magic." "Stella, you gotta fight back..." said Yuri, almost whispering. She had no idea what to do. Stella then looked at Yuri with an indifferent expression.
"What are we?" Stella whispered. "What do we do?"
"How do you mean it? We are Puella Magis, and we're fighting for the sake of others." replied Yuri.
Stella then stood up. Again, pain rushed through her body, but she ignored it.
"The world is not black and white - justice is not good and evil is not bad, that sense of morality no longer applies." she said, walking towards Homulily. "This puppet will have to play her part."
Stella then smiled, turning towards the shocked Yuri. Yuri noticed that Stella's SG dimmed to the point of cracking.
"What will you do, Yuri-san? Will you accept your fate as something inhuman or endure and survive in this cycle that knows no end?" asked Stella.
"I will fight, as long as I can, but you need to fight too, Stella!"
"I'm sorry, Yuri...I tried to fight back but..." Stella trailed off. Her SG cracked.
"No, please stay with me!" Yuri yelled.
"Saionara..." Stella whispered. And then she smiled as her eyes shifted away. Her mind wasn't with her body. "Subarashiki...kono sekai." (Translate: It's a wonderful world)
"NO!" Yuri cried.
The SG cracked. It exploded, creating an energy field which covered everything. The SG turned into a Grief Seed with checkered surfaces. Dark smoke emerged from it, forming the Witch body.
She had the form of a naked girl, but the entire body is black with all the important parts of a female body missing. It looked like a doll. Her hair was loose and sharp.
She pierced through Homulilly, killing her and taking over her Barrier.
Her name was Insert Name Here.
