Puella Magi Madoka Magica: Visionary

Nemesis

No. It did not match.

Everything went as had been planned, according to her visions. No deviations. Except, perhaps, the time factor and to avoid a possibility of the Incubators to interfere. Even so, for Oriko, those people before her should never be there.

"Do you know her?"

Oriko heard the girl with white hair asking to her companion, who remained silent. Her black dress and leather that covered her body passed an air of death and her eyes were cold and unfriendly. The fact that girl apparently know her made this set even more threatening.

While the other did not show such dangerouness. Oriko soon noticed on the girl's belt buckle a violet gem in a candy shaped golden frame. Although it did not placate her fears, she at least knew with what she was dealing. "You are magical girls. What are your names?"

"Magical girls?" From her serious expression, Homura suddenly grinned. "Not really."

Oriko was even more stunned when witnessed more girls coming up suddenly behind those two. No, they were not girls. They looked more like mannequins, but moved as if they had life! "What... W-What?!"

The dolls, with their large black pins in hand, changed the color of their eyes and showed their teeth in front of so many Kyuubeys.

"Children! Children!" Homura clapped to get their attention. "Not those! There is a larger white rat to take care..."

When the dolls turned their disturbing visages to Oriko, she took a step back. It was then that the magical girl realized that the Kyuubeys had walked away from her.

The dolls passed next to Nagisa, walking toward the white magic girl. "Homura-chan?"

However, Homura did not answer on such questioning, just crossed her arms with apparent satisfaction.

Oriko returned to retreat with the dolls's advance. She looked at the girl with long black braids, with violet and red ribbons. Before that there was only one thing to say. "Why...?" But she have no hope of an answer. She turned her head, staring at the empty spot of the gallery of earlier and soon after to the large prism where Madoka was waiting for salvation.

It was true, nothing was happening as predicted, but the goal was still there, intact. With regained determination, Oriko began gesturing and her spheres obeyed. Throwing the arms forward, she threw them against the prism.

The dolls acted fast. Using their pins as bats, they batted the crystal balls.

Seeing the balls returning in her direction, Oriko made a new gesture to stop them and then made to orbit at a high speed around her.

"Homura-chan!" Nagisa was stunned with the fight that was being established. "Why are you doing this?"

"Her name is Oriko Mikuni. I met her during my journey through time." Homura answered, without looking at the little girl. "She only has one purpose in her life, which is to kill Madoka Kaname."

"What?!"

"I made a grave mistake when I leaved Mitakihara." Homura continued, slightly looking down. "But I can still fix. It'll be quick."

The dolls struck with their pins, paving their way through the spheres, until one jumped in front of the magical girl and her bright silver gem.

Oriko gave a mere step to the side, away from the tip of the pin and then held it.

The doll looked with surprise at the stern expression of the girl.

Oriko then used her great strength as a magical girl and threw the pin, with the doll and everything, against the others. Without waiting for the outcome, she jumped, avoiding pins that ended up exploding the gallery floor, and landed on one of her spheres.
