Nepeta Lejion walked down the old alleyway with scratch in her arms. The alleyway was the only comfortable-considering the dangerous encounters she had with witches here-place Nepeta could actually make this wish. She knew that if he became a magi she could help Kanaya, Feferi, and other puella magi. She just didn't want anyone dying anymore, she was going to change to law, even without making it a wish.
"So, you wanted to speak to me, Nepeta?" Asked Scratch, jumping from her arms and onto the fire escape.
"Yes, I...I'd like to make a wish to become a purella magi..." Her thoughts were suddenly lost on her. Why didn't she talk to Feferi about this? She knew she was making a frightening decision to risk her own life-her own soul for that matter-just so she could save others...Equius...
"Oh! Really? Well, this is exciting! Kyuby!" Scratch exclaimed. After a minute, the pure white cat that was killed the first time Nepeta had saw her arrived, jumping atop a nearby trash can.
"This is exciting..." Kyuby jumped from the trash can and made her way before Nepeta. Nepeta stared at the red-eyed cat.
"Are you sure you are willing to carry on with this? Willing to risk your life to fight?"
Nepeta absent-mindedly nodded her head. Kyuby jumped on her shoulder and flicked her tail in Nepeta's face, snapping her back to reality.
"Nepeta?"
"Kyuby, can I just make my wish?"
Kyuby's expressionless face tilted slightly to the right, "sure."
"My wish...is to protect, and fight, with the other magi." Nepeta looked up at Kyuby. The cat lifted her paw at Nepeta. Like a gunshot in the heart, the pain gripped at Nepeta's heart like a grappling hook. The pain melted away when her soul gem came out of her chest.
"This is your soul gem" Scratch informed, jumping before Kyuby and Nepeta.
The gem glowed a bright green. Something was here, someone was here.
Nepeta turned and saw Feferi with her own soul gem glowing in her hand. Feferi stared at Nepeta with confusion and anger.
"Feferi, I'm sorry I didn't tell you...I...wanted to help...I-"nepeta was cut short by Feferi running at her and hugging her close.
"Nepeta...I'm so glad your okay..."Feferi whispered. Nepeta held her soul gem close, concealing the green glow that was being released from the gem.
"Feferi...what are you doing here?" Nepeta asked nervously, tightening the grip on her gem. Feferi smiled and held up hers, the pink glow illuminating the sign of another witch.
"This alleyway had a witches kiss placed on someone who came by earlier, I knew I was gonna be late so I decided to investigate after school." She explained, looking around curiously. Then she turned back to Nepeta.
"What exactly are you doing here?" She asked the secret magi, who's glowing soul gem glowed so brightly, the light appeared in between her fingers. Feferi looked down at Nepeta's hands, then looked to the side at the grey brick wall. A grief seed sat in the white glowing cracks of the wall. The new maze was about to open.
Feferi transformed into her magical outfit and then looked to Nepeta,"Nepy, it's okay, I'll guide you through your first maze...as a magical girl." Feferi said hesitantly. Nepeta looked up at Feferi, then nodded. Nepeta lifted the soul gem to her lips and kissed it gently. Feferi felt a little heat rise in her cheeks as she watched Nepeta transform into a black leotard, blue thigh high boots with blond furr lining the the top, a large jacket wrapped around her shoulders, the hem was cut short at the back so it show the green skirt that wrapped around her waist. Her soul gem was placed on a bow that sat on her chest, glowing brightly.
"Lets go," Feferi ignored the weird thoughts that ran through her head. Nepeta looked a little more cuter then she was suppose to be, running beside her as they ran through the medium. Minions that looked like angels came at them, and that's when Nepeta finally pounced.
Nepeta flicked her wrists and three blades appeared out each hand. She jumped the oncoming attacks from the minions and threw her claws at a minion straight in the face. Feferi was amazed, for a beginner, Nepeta was doing quite well with close combat. She rammed at a minion and sliced its head off. Nepeta must've watched wolverine or something, because her fighting skills were truly amazing. All the minions were soon ribbons when Nepeta finished them off. Feferi ran up to her and patted her shoulder.
"That was amazing! How did you learn to fight like that?"
"...Wolverine night with Equius..." She replied, looking at her claws. Feferi smiled. 'Why are you so cute?' She thought to herself. The two went foreword, silence grew between them as they slowly made they're way to the witch.
Kanaya and Rose Lalonde arrived at Equius's place so they could talk to haven't seen her or Feferi after school to walk home, and that had made Kanaya worried, so she had invited Rose to join her. Kanaya knocked on the door of the Zahhak house-hold. They waited till they saw a man with spiky hair and weird animu glasses came and opened the door for them. The girls stood with they're backs straight as they stared at the mystery man.
Equius then came up behind him and smiled, which was something he didn't normally do, "girls, what's wrong? Is it Nepeta?"
Kanaya, with a questionable look on her face, looked between the two of them and then answered, "yes, we're wondering if she's here...we'd like to talk to her."
Equius looked at them and then shook his head, "she's not here." "Actually, I have no information about her current whereabouts." He added quickly.
A horrified look fell on upon Kanaya's face, she looked down and closed her eyes. She used her magical girl power to see where Nepeta was. The color of her soul gem brightly lit the scene as Nepeta and Feferi had made they're way into the witches maze. But Nepeta looked different. She had a magical girl outfit. And she was fighting the minions as well. Then, an image of Scratch and Kyuby appeared, Kyuby's red eyes glowed brightly as she press her small mouth into a wide smile, sharp teeth.
Kanaya eyes popped open and he turned on the toe of her wedge heels and ran to the alleyway where she first met her now-in-danger friend.
