WARNING: CONTAINS BLOOD AND GORE SCENES

~~~~

"C-Chiyo" I say collapsing to my knees...

Right before my very eyes was a bloody Chiyo hanging from the ceiling blood dripping off her toes...

I wanted to scream but I couldn't .... I know she's dead her face is frozen and she just hung there...

I transformed and took her down from the skipping rope. Ayami's foot prints were on the floor in Chiyo's blood. I hope no one comes into the gyms.

After locking both gyms I decided to follow the bloody foot prints leading outside.

"Ayami is going to kill everyone she sees" kyubey says

I glare at him before shooting holes through him.

"Homura-chan you shouldn't be like that, Ayami is going to be a powerful witch you are going to face"

"That's not necessary I won't let her become a witch" I stated before running off

"Humans are strange" he said

A scream rang out from the bathroom making me panic, Ayami needs to be stopped. I entered the now silent bathroom lights flickering as I entered a labyrinth... Ayami was lost.

"AYAMI!"

Ayami's POV

Homura? What's happening? Where am I? It's cold and I feel trapped. I look a head and see Homura running towards me in slow motion.

"DONT!!" She was yelling and I looked down at my hands... A grenade. Everything came rushing back to me, I killed lots of people.... I'm a magical girl...

Tears dropped from my face as I pulled the pin on the grenade.

"Goodbye.." I said looking at her tear stained face

"NOOOO!!!!" She screamed as everything went white.

This is it... This is how Im going to die.... If only Matsushita was here..

Homura's POV

The labyrinth disappeared along with Ayami. I sat there on the floor tears streaming down my face as I reach for my shield, I'm going to reset this.

Just as I was going to reset things Madoka came and hugged me crying. The others found out too. Today 3 brilliant magical girls died ....

"This wasn't what I was hoping to happen" Torry said walking out from a cubical.

"You did this!" Kyoko yelled with her fist up, eyes streaming.

"Yeah I did now Matsushita can finally disappear forever plus her step sister too" Torry said relaxed

"You disappoint me Torry" Ima said before leaving.

I hugged Madoka tighter as we all sobbed our hearts out.

~•~•~•~

It has been a week since Chiyo, Matsushita and Ayami died... Well Matsushita disappeared while Chiyo and Ayami's funeral is right now.

We all stood there in black, no where near a cemetery since no one remembers them. We all placed flowers around the stone we wrote their names on and left. We had been there for hours and the rain was getting heavy.

We all went back to the school grounds since class was starting soon, we all had our uniforms packed into our lockers yesterday. I went to the private garden instead and just sat there to think.

I couldn't help them in time, it's all my fault if only i had gotten there sooner...

Soon later Madoka found me but she wasn't in the Ichira Ragi uniform it was our old uniform.

"Homura..." She said, "we're moving back to Mitakihara Middle School"

"Why?"

".... It's painful being here, no one even remembers them!"

"They're watching over us" I tried to strong in front of Madoka.

I looked to my left because I sensed something odd, nothing was there, I must be still in shock.

~•~•

Our first day back at Mitakihara Middle School was very heart warming. Hitomi missed Madoka and Sayaka a lot during the time we spent at Ichira Ragi.

"You know we have a new student" Hitomi said

"Who?" Sayaka looked around

There in the corner was....

"Ehhh?!?? HIKARI?" Kyoko said pushing Sayaka to the side.

"Oi Kyoko!"

"Umm... It's Akari" Hitomi corrects

"Humpf she was Hikari at Ichira Ragi" Kyoko says coming up to me.

"Is this gonna be a problem?"

"No, I'll make sure this isn't a problem" I say

"Class, we have another student surprisingly..." The teacher said and a girl who looked exactly like Hikari walked in.

"WHAT?!??" Kyoko yelled everyone looking at Hikari and the other girl

"This is Hikari, she came from Ichira Ragi"

Everyone's face at this point was either shocked or amazed.

So AQS is two people? Where is Matsushita when you need her...

Class went on until it was the end of the day, we all went our separate ways.

As I walked home I thought about all the information we were told about AQS.

"It's probably fake then" I say out loud.

"I'm here to explain this to you" Hikari or Akari said

I give her a look while holding my soul gem up ready to fight.

"Mmm I'm not here for that" she says

"Akari isn't my twin, we're the same person actually"

"Explain"

"We're both the same person, there is no such thing as Akari as an individual, think of her as a ghost if you must"

I walk away from her as it was getting dark already.

"See you later Homura" she whispered in my ear making me turn around in shock

I was 20 meters away from her....

Kyoko's POV

Why are they here? Shouldn't they be in my hometown... It doesn't matter as long as they don't get in our way. But I can't help thinking why would they come here? What's their motive? I get up from my bed to find Sayaka.

"Sayaka.." I started

"What?" She waited for my reply

"Do you know why they're here?"

"They?..... Oh your old team mates!"

"Yeah..."

"I don't think we've ever discussed this with the others..."

I decide to drop it for now and head back to my room since I was tired, it was nearly twelve am and we had school.

I got into my bed while eating an apple until I fell asleep....
