Magical Girl Asylum - Book One

Chapter Zero - The Prologue [Asuna Madoka]

'Damn. Shut up. I don't want to hear you anymore.' I thought to myself as I sat at my desk. The voices were back again. Always reminding me of that time - Of when I had to fight zombies. It terrified me to no end, but I had to continue battling.

"Miss Madoka, are you feeling alright?" I heard the nurse ask me as I started to shake uncontrollably. When I heard her voice my head shot up from my desk and turned to face her. My black hair fell into my eyes as I continued to shake. I couldn't help it. The memories of those events haunted me and I just couldn't shake them. The nurse came over to me and sat down next to me.

"Honey?" She asked as she touched my right cheek tenderly while taking my hand in hers. I started sobbing as one of those horrible memories began to fill my head without my consent.

Blood. So much of it. Not even half of it was from the zombies. Most of it from the innocent people who were attacked.

"Why couldn't I protect them," I mumbled under my breath as I stood looking over the carnage that had just occurred moments before. My elder came over to me stumbling and wobbling. I could tell she had been drinking once again and I felt helpless in the world as I trembled. Then, the voices returned just as my elder slapped me in the face.

"The ooonly thiiing That maaaattrrs is zzzombie'ss deaath," she slurred out as she kept punching me all around my body. I cried out and screamed, but no one could hear me at all. We were all alone there, yet I couldn't help but scream, flail, wail, and cry. I knew better then to try to stop her though.

"Asuna Madoka!" A voice called out to me as I began to come out of my thoughts. I slowly raised my head up to see one of the messengers standing in the doorway looking at me.

"Y-Yes?" I whispered out as I finally took notice of the nurse who was cradling me against her chest. I tried turning my head to see her, but the messenger spoke once again.

"A government person wishes to speak with you!" The young male exclaimed as he leaned against the doorframe. My eyes widened as I shook again. I only uttered a single word to his statement.

"Why?"
