Know what time it is? It's hero of JUSTICE time!

[knightlyrondo]

WHO: Sayaka Miki and anyone. Yes, anyone.
WHAT: Dark allies event open post
WHEN: During the Dark Allies event (03/17-03/21)
WHERE: Everywhere
WARNINGS: Cursing, violence.

[After getting a weapon from a certain Yurippe, Sayaka's been looking for a fight. The katana feels right in her hands. It's certainly not the sword she fought with in life but it's close enough that she can feel comfortable using it.

Her goals are simple. She's out to take down as many shadows as she can and to make sure that no one gets taken by them. Sayaka's always on the move. She does stop for a minute to send a simple message to Madoka, Mami, and Kyouko: If you need back up, just tell me where you are.

It's time for Magical Justice Girl Sayaka to get back to work.

[Just a day. Those words repeat in her head. If it had taken Kyouko all her strength to defeat the witch--what about the familiars? There's no way that all of them had been dealt with. That thought repeats itself and it makes her sick.

She doesn't look at Kyouko.]

Madoka said she had tried talking to me. [It wouldn't make sense if she had been by herself. Now that she had the remaining information.] I thought it was weird since she couldn't stand against a witch by herself.

[She killed Kyouko. That much was clear now. She killed this girl and she's trying to...what? Make her stop blaming herself? That didn't make any sense. Why?

Of course Sayaka blames herself. She was weak enough to succumb to it. She should have asked questions instead of blindly believing whatever Kyubey said. She should have known better. If not for her own sake then for Madoka's. If she hadn't made that stupid contract then Kyouko wouldn't have been killed. Madoka wouldn't have been so worried.]

Fine. [She speaks after a few moments.] We've got to keep moving before those stupid shadows show up again.

[She'll just keep her thoughts to herself, then.]

[Almost immediately, Kyouko regrets the last part of her little diatribe. If she was actually a friend, she'd be able to listen to Sayaka speak her mind without losing her temper.

But she's not a friend. It's like every other thing she says to Sayaka is wrong in some way. And worse, there's the ever-looming threat that Sayaka will get her memories back, and she'll remember the terrible things Kyouko did to her.

Kyouko doesn't have the stomach to reveal those truths. And since she doesn't, is it really OK for her to be tagging along with Sayaka like this? The answer, Kyouko thinks, is almost definitely no.]

You go on. I just… thought of something else I hafta do.

[Mami wanted her to make friends with Kyouko. So did Madoka, in her own way. Maybe it was their way of trying to mend the gap between them.

She should try to keep Kyouko from leaving. For Mami-san's sake but she can't think of anything. Besides, if Sayaka's honest maybe it's best for both of them to go separate ways for now. Instead the best she can come up with is,]

Suzumiya might have better weapons. Use the phone to contact her.

[It's the least she can do.] --and don't let those stupid things touch you. [That last bit is to make sure that she doesn't turn into a NPC. If that happened... Sayaka knew it wouldn't be good. Even if she didn't have much fondness for the girl.]

[soulfood]

[What happens when they touch you? The question is on the tip of Kyouko's tongue, but she decides not to delay her departure any longer; she doesn't want to start second guessing herself. She's Magical Girl — or was — and these shadows don't seem any tougher than familiars. There's no way she's going to let them get her, even if all she has to fight them off is a partially broken bat.

Besdies, unless this Suzumiya person has a spear, Kyouko doesn't think an upgrade will help all that much.]

…Alright. Thanks.

[And with that, Kyouko tightens the grip on the bat and turns away. She heads off in the opposite direction without looking back.]
