Madoka: Whoa, cool apartment...
Mami: We live alone, so make yourselves at home.
Lillyan: Except we don't really have much as far as food goes...
***
Madoka: Wow, Mami, this is so delicious!
Mami: Thank you. Since Kyubey chose the two of you, that means you're both involved in this, like it or not. I thought it might be good if we all had a talk.
Sayaka: Go ahead, ask us anything you want.
Madoka: Sayaka, you've got it all wrong...
*Mami giggles and we pull out our Soul Gems*
Madoka: Whoa, pretty... What are they?
Lillyan: They're called Soul Gems. It's created when a girl makes a Contract with Kyubey, here.
Mami: Right. It's the source of our magic, and also proves that we're Magical Girls.
Sayaka: What's this "Contract?"
Kyubey: I will grant each of you one wish, anything you desire. I can grant the most impossible of miracles!
Lillyan: But in exchange for that wish, your Soul Gem is created. And if you have a Soul Gem, it will be your duty to fight Witches. Oh! That reminds me, Mami, can we take them on our next Witch hunt?
Sayaka: Witches?
Kyubey: If Magical Girls are born from wishes, then Witches are born from curses. Magical Girls bring hope to the world, Witches bring despair. Anxiety and mistrust, rage and hatred, they sow the seeds of disaster all over the world.
Mami: Suicides or murders without motive? A Witch's curse is most likely the culprit. It festers within a person, then it grows and grows until it consumes them.
Madoka: If there are things like that out there, how come people don't know about them?
Kyubey: A Witch is careful about not letting humans see them. They hide deep within the Labyrinths they create. That maze-like place we were in today? That was a Labyrinth.
Lillyan: You two were in a lot of danger back there. If a muggle wanders into one, most of the time, they don't come out.
Madoka: Is that what you do? You go out and fight these horrible creatures?
Mami: Yes, we risk our lives.
Lillyan: Well, not necessarily. Mami's pretty much the veteran around here. If you wanna know the truth, I only made my Contract about... hm... a month ago, I think?
Mami: Regardless, that's why the two of you should think carefully before deciding if you want to be Magical Girls. Kyubey chose you and offered a rare chance. It's true that he'll grant whatever wish you want, but remember, death is part of that deal.
Lillyan: You still haven't answered my question. Think about it, maybe it'll help them decide. *smirk* They can see for themselves what it's like to fight a Witch...
Mami: Yes, of course. But maybe tomorrow.
Lillyan: Aww, okay...
Mami: I should remind you two, you're giving up everything for this one wish, so think long and hard about it. Ask yourselves, is this something you want so badly, you'd trade your life for it?...

Madoka: Good morning~!
