I am sticking to my schedule!
I can't trust the irregular to kill Mami now... I will have to call one of the others... Oh well. Kyoko always wants more grief seeds. Kyubye thought as he ran from Mami's house with Madoka behind him.
"What happened to Mami?"
"She lost hope. Mami was a magical girl who fought to protect others. It was only a matter of time before she died from depression after she blamed herself for Hitomi's death."
"Man... Not only Hitomi... Is Mami really lost?"
"She became the very thing she spent her life to hunt."
"That's horrible."
"It's the fate of magical girls."
"Madoka?"
Madoka looked up.
"Sayaka!"
"What are you doing?" Madoka sniffled.
"It's... it's Mami..."
Sayaka's eyes widened, she ran in the direction of Mami's house.
"No, Sayaka, we need to go in the opposite direction."
"Why?"
"Kyubye is leading us to where this... Kyoko... lives."
"He has a replacement for Mami? Already?"
"Yeah... We have to go now. She is our new trainer."
"Well, I refuse to go!" Sayaka started running away.
"Sayaka stop!" she just kept running.
"Come on, Madoka, we have to go."
"Okay..."

Madoka ran into an old church that Kuybye had jumped into. A red haired girl sat in there, eating apples.
"So she finally kicked the can?"
"Yes, the city is yours now."

Sayaka sat in the hospital room while Kyoske was sleeping. I can't take this anymore. I can't sit back and be helpless. Two of my friends are dead and one is in the hospital for the rest of his life... Why... I just wish I could...
What was that just now? Sayaka looked up to see Kuybye above her.
"I wish I can protect everyone I care about and that as long as I live they won't be in despair!" Sayaka felt a burning in her chest. then the contract began.
