The Beginning

Mari

Here is Himari's story! And by Himari I do not mean @NyanNyan hehe. Onto the story. This one Himari sees things

Tsugumi's cafe Himari's POV

Tsugu's cafe was closed for today. I was sitting with my friends at the table. We were talking about magical girls. We all were magical girls after all. We told our stories on becoming one to where we are now. It came time for me. I'm the veteran of our group being one for 6 years. Ran is the newbie being one for only 3 years. Moca being one for 4 years and Tomoe and Tsugumi being magical girls for 5 years.

I was 9 when I became Mari. Mari is actually a double pun. A pun off my name and a pun off of marionette.

I used to be a cute doll.

"What changed me?" You're probably wondering

Back when I was 9 I had a friend named Fumie. She became a magical girl with me. So did my sister Mikane. Both girls died in front of me and I used their bodies in order to kill their killers.

You see, I can control dolls. I'm like a puppeteer. Though "controlling dolls" isn't exactly right but it isn't wrong either. I can control any unliving humanoid. That includes corpses. Seeing everyone die in front of me scarred me. Mentally and physically. After I won the death game I felt my body about to shatter.

As a porcelain doll I'm very easy to break. I'm easy to shatter. Like how I'm a very emotional person. I guess that's why I'm a porcelain doll and not any other type of doll.

I heard my skin cracking. Shards of my face and body hit the ground. I was falling apart. More so literally than metaphorically

That moment changed me. I wasnt the same Himari everyone knew before. I only acted like I was. Then when my friends became magical girls I told them. I'm really glad they survived.

But now we have another death game coming for us. We will all be together this time.

I took a sip from my black coffee (the game did say she liked that so)

I'm scared for their lives

Our magical phones rang. We all picked them up. Nobody would see us anyways. Besides Tsugumi's mom is a magical girl she isn't in the death game though (I accidentally typed "death math" math is a killer be aware)

On our phones we saw the same message. It was from Fal.

The message said for the girls to be well trained in fighting for the death game.

My stomach growled

"Let me get you something to eat Himari" Tsugu said to me.

She got me some cake and stuff. I ate it.

Eating it I felt like that scene of Tokyo Mew Mew when Ichigo was eating that cake and her cat tail popped out and began wagging.

I wonder if the girls from Tokyo Mew Mew are actually real magical girls. I know Zakuro Fujiwara is real at least

I'm actually a closeted magical girl fan. I know it sounds strange coming from me but it's still the truth

Though the upcoming death game it might be better off for me of I were to die in it. Of course im gonna try to survive but if I die in it my memories will be wiped and I'll be free. I wont be in pain anymore.

I felt hands touching my face

"To-moe" I said. I was crying again

"Himari. Were you thinking about the you know?"

I could only nod. So of course that's what I did, I nodded.

"I see. Well dont worry Himari. We will all protect each other!"

"Thank you Tomoe"

She was wiping my tears away. She is my closest friend

Her kindness made me cry even more. I dont wanna lose my friends in the game even if they will be humans again.

"I'll die if it means you all get to stay magical girls" I thought out loud

"We would all do the same thing for each other Himari" Ran said

"I magical girl Mari promise to help out the others in Afterglow"

This continued on with everyone else. Nemuri, Phoenix, etc. (Good luck guessing who Nemuri is and who Pheonix is though it's probs totally obvious)

We all promised to help each other

We would make sure one of us survived in the end.

Also my memories of the test. They tried to wipe them from me but it didnt work. That's why im still so f*cked up.

My siblings dont even know what I am. They aren't allowed to know. If a human learns who the real human identity of a magical girl is, that magical girl will become human again and lose their memories no matter what.

As for me, I'm the successor of Rionetta. Another magical girl puppeteer. If only she didn't die

Everyone I love, everyone I care about. All they ever seem to do is die. Ever since I became Mari

Being Mari is like a curse that's been put on me.

Why can't I just disappear and be normal again?

I want to be normal again

I need to be normal again

It would be best for all of us

This one isnt exactly 1000 words but all of these will be around 1000 words. Now to sleep. It's 7:21 am in New York and I'm falling asleep. I couldn't sleep during the night. So see ya
