Entry 31: Walprugisnacht

"So, Walpurgisnight is apporaching." I said, in a montone voice, looking at Kyubey. I, Yukio and QB were at mine apartment. Kyubey nodded. I sighed. "Why are you doing this, Kyubey? Are you aware how much sorrow you brough to the people of Akari City?"

'We can't understand why humans can experience the death of a single person with so much emotion. We, the Incubators, are emotionless.' said Kyubey. 'It's just like humans raising animals for their meat. It's an ideal symbiotic relationship.'

"We're not animals!" I said.

'I admit, the comparision is imperfect, since we acutally recognize humans as sentient lifeforms.' said Kyubey. 'Yet, if we didn't interfere with the history of your planet, humans'd still live in caves. There are many hisorical figures who were magical girls.'

His eyes then flashed and I saw many pictures. It were girls and woman whom I heared on my history lessons: Cleopatra, Himiko, Joan of Arc, Anna Frank...

I fell on my knees.

"Kaen!" Yukio tried to get me up.

'It wasn't our fault that the Puella-Witch System is so cruel. It were the wishes of girls in question were the one who were twisted by their own logic.' Kyubey countined.

I closed my eyes and sighed.

"Is there any way to defeat Walpurgis? When we fought Kriemhild, we had Sherrie's help." I asked.

'It's impossible to defeat Walpurgis alone. But I guess there's a small chance since there are three of you.' Kyubey replied.

Suddenly, there was a rung on the door. I jumped and opened it. A woman stood in front of it, holding a letter.

"I'm sorry." she said as she gave me the letter.

"Why?" I asked as I took it. She shook her head.

"Read it. I'll be back tommorow. I'm really, really sorry." she said and walked away.

I opened the letter, and froze. I felt my legs being cut off as I fell down. I started to cry.

"Kaen, what happened?" Yukio apporached me.

"M-my mom d-died in a car incident. She wanted to visit me!" I cried out loudly. "My family! Everyone's gone!"

Yukio didn't know what to do, except watching her silently.

xXx

There was an intense storm coming and the civilians were evacuated. No one knew what was going on.

Besides me, Yukio, Kyubey and Yuri.

Walpurgis was so strong that she didn't need a barrier. She floated towards us, destroying everything in her way. She looked like a white puppet in a blue outfit. The lower part was made of gears and she was floating upside down. There were voices, singing something.

She will turn all of fate's misfortune to nothing.

She will flood the earth with magic, and take all of humankind into her play. A moving stage construction.

If everything is a play, no unhappy things will exist. It may be a tragedy, but it'll all be part of the script.

The play stops on Walpurgisnacht, and the earth does not turn even once more. The story will not change. Tomorrow, and the day after, is the night of Walpurgis.

I and Yuri transformed.

"Summon Analyzer!" I said.

'Walpurgis Night. The stage-constructing witch; her nature is helplessness. She symbolizes the fool who continuously spins in circles. The witch's mysteries have been handed down through the course of history; her appellation is "Walpurgis Night." She will continue to rotate aimlessly throughout the world until she completely changes the whole of this age into a drama. When the doll's usual upside-down position reaches the top part of the witch, she completely roils the civilization on the ground in a flash through her gale-like flight.'

I saw magical girls' shadows dancing around her. They were singing the song we heared.

'The stage-constructing witch's minions. Their duty is to be clowns. Countless souls drawn to her vast magical power. Nobody knows whether Walpurgis Night was initially a single person, or if it was a phantom born from the gathering of many spirits.'

"She's born from many other Witches." Yuri gulped. A note came flying down. It said: Everything in this world is fake. My life is nothing more than a drama that you penned. Please, prove it. "Faust" is on show.

"So, she thinks this World is her stage. Let's prove her wrong!" said Yukio and summoned his sword. Suddenly, he froze.

I and Yuri froze too. Some of the Familiars looked like Yumi, Asuna, Miku, Sayo, Stella and Sherrie.

"This is sick." I whispered.

"We must kill her!" said Yuri.

We jumped at Walpurgis, I and Yukio extending our wings. Yukio took care of the Familiars, while and and Yuri faced Walprugis.

"Hikari no Kizu!" I slashed at the Witch, firing multiple sickles at her. Yuri summoned several red thunders. Both attacks hit the Witch, yet, they didn't scratch her.

"Yami no Kizu!" I slashed this time with a darker energy sickle. Yuri summoned thousands of sais. The attacks hit the Witch, yet it was in vain. Walprugis approached slowly, destroying whole buildings in the process. I and Yuri slowly became dismayed.

"Hateshiganai Yoarashi!" Yuri summoned the blue thunders, using her ultimate attack.

"Yami no Kizu!" I put too all my power into this attack, hoping it would kill the Witch.

As the attacks hit Walpurgis, she exploded. I detransformed, hoping that the battle would be over.

It wasn't and a building came flying towards us. It hit the ground in front of me and Yuri creating an impact, which made us fly backwards.

"Kaen! Yuri!" I heared Yukio yelling. The glass flew towards us, creating cuts. We both were heavily wounded.

Yuri gritted her teeth.

"This Witch is unstoppable!" she said. She lowered her head. She then threw a Grief Seed towards me. I recoginzed Yumi's Grief Seed.

"What are you doing?" I asked.

"There's no other way to defead it." she said, taking her SG. It was dark red, almost black.

"Yuri, you..." I trailed off. My SG was corrupted as well.

"Use the GS. If I don't manage to defead Walpurgis, you'll have to." she said. Yukio apporached us.

"What's going on?" he asked.

"Yuri wants to sacrisfice herself!" I cried out, jumping on my feet. Yuri smiled kindly at me.

"You and Yumi were always like little sisters to me. Thank you for that." she said and turned to Yukio. "Take care of Kaen."

Yukio nodded. Yuri turned to Walpurgis.

"Yuri don't!" I tried to stop her, but Yukio grabbed me and wraped his arms around me.

"Leave her! If she wants to do that, let her be!" he said. I struggled to get free of his grip.

"No! She can't! Yuri!" Tears runned down my cheeks as I saw Yuri jumping towards Walpurgis. "Yuri!"

'This will be my ultimate sacrisfice. I won't turn into a Witch.' Yuri thought as she summoned a huge sai. 'I'll fight as a Puella Magi until my last breath.'

She threw her thunder shaped Soul Gem into the air. It floated towards the Witch. Yuri jumped on the sai.

'Saya, Yumi. Soon, I'll join you.' she smiled.

The Soul Gem shattered.

An giant explosion engulfed the battle field.

"YURI!"
