"W-Well, I told them because I just wanted to talk it out...and I thought my parents would know what I was thinking...Since...You know, they're my parents. And I've always gotten along with them too. For the most part."

Sayaka sat down beside her and sighed, dipping her head. She was just so done with this, the pain, the bad luck, if a Demon showed up right now, she'd really tear into it.

She gripped the edges of her skirt, fingers clenched so tightly that the muscles were stretched taut beneath her skin.

"Well yeah, I do. It's probably really stupid of me. But everything I've done lately is, so what else is new."

A halfhearted shrug.

"Have you ever had a crush, Kyouko?" The question came out slowly, and she kept her head bowed.

The Magi swung her hands as she walked, her eyes trailing to the side, but she grinned anyway.

"Well as great as things can be, really. So whatcha up to? You're usually chowing down on something whenever I see you, are you sick?" Her tone was light and teasing.

“S-Sayaka?” Kyouko turned towards the familiar voice. “Hey. Good I guess. What about you.”

Sayaka could feel it. Madoka's magic.

Maybe since emotions were so important--emotions to solve entropy, emotions to darken Soul Gems, emotions that drive a person--it was in this place, here, that she felt more rooted than anywhere else. A place that Kyouko considered her home, even if it seemed to be just a hotel to Sayaka.

She could lift her head high. No trouble here, no pain, all of it was gone now. She was perfectly fine. Happy.

Well. Mostly.

A sad smile turned her lips up. She felt both content, and sad, but it was better than that crushing depression...

She had been waiting for this. This opportunity to see Kyouko again. It was only possible due to Madoka. Only possible because she had died in such a particular way. 

Hearing the sound of Kyouko returning, she gave a huge grin to her companion, mischievious light flaring in her eyes.

"Hey, Kyouko!"

Casual as you pleased!

☆ Memories of a dream

In the midst of a foggy Miasma, Homura Akemi, Mami Tomoe, Miki Sayaka and Sakura Kyouko; a magica quartet faced off against a gathering of demons. Nothing new for the Scarlet magi. Hell- she could do it in her sleep. But this fight was different, though their relationship head begun with a senseless rivalry, Kyouko Sakura had finally grown closer to the azure magi, Sayaka. Perhaps by this point she could say they had finally become…. friends. A piece-of-cake fight with Sayaka alongside as her comerade. A few swings of her lance and soon the brawl was over. With the clearing air Kyouko turned to face the azure. 

“Heh nothin’ we can’t handle right Sayaka?… 

…. Sayaka?”

  _______

It was a 4 months since then. Each passing day of the loss of her dear friend lingered on her shoulders, haunting her as if it were a phantom. What was the point of her giving up her life for some jerkass guy she loved? Why didn’t Kyouko do a better job of protecting her. That idiot… opening up to Kyouko and leaving so easily… the crimson herself was the double idiot for falling so easily into her own desires. She should have known better. A veteran magi, who already lost her best friend once, trying to befriend another? Tch- How could she have been so stupid to think that she stood a chance at all? Friendship? Love? Kyouko Sakura would never bother with such things again. She was a magi fated to destroy demons until she died. This was her sealed fate that she had chosen. 

And where was she now? The veteran lancer sat at her usual seat at her hotel balcony. She looked out into the city of Mitakihara, the city Sayaka so badly wished to become a soldier of justice for. She gazed up at the stars. Through the corner of her eye, she caught sight of it- a shooting star fleeting past. 

“Heh, I wish I could see t’ht blue idiot again…”  

Without even realizing, the crimson had placed her own wish. Che- what a waste of time. Kyouko had her chance to wish already. Living like this was tiring. All that the scarlet wanted to do now was close her eyes and sleep forever. She tured back towards the screen doors of her hotel, yet inside her room was-

Sayaka smiled.

"Hey, Kyouko, how's it going?"

Sayaka took in a deep breath as she walked. The streets seemed to melt away, almost as if she was passing through the hallways of her house to go speak with her parents.

"So earlier this evening, I went to talk to my parents."

Another sigh.

"They weren't happy at all about what I had to say, you know? I thought...I might like a girl. Not like...friendship-like, but more than that. And the more we talked about it, the more horrified they got. And it just became really clear to me that I shouldn't have said anything, anything at all."

She shook her head, fist clenched, nearly strangling her drink so that it almost popped.

"I was really stupid, I guess. And after that they started yelling, and I knew I was in a lot of trouble, just by saying what was true. You know? So...I left the house...and I don't think I can go back. Not without a lot of conflict. I don't think I could take any more of that."

Finally stopping, she faced Kyouko and smiled wryly.

"But...it's just another stupid decision in a long line of them, isn't it?"

"Yeah," Sayaka agreed mechanically. Definitely not fun. She shook her head without really thinking about what she was doing, or the contradiction between the movement and her single word.

At the order, the other obeyed. She just remained sitting, her chin on her hands, watching everything as it went by. The clouds, cars, people. They didn't care about her or what was happening.

When Kyouko returned, she took the cup slowly, frowning at it. "How did you...?" Suspicion colored her words darkly.

She sighed and probably surprised Kyouko by actually sipping it. The chocolate tasted sickeningly sweet for some reason, and the warmth was searing hot. She kept drinking it anyway.

Finally, she said, "I'm not welcome home anymore."

She kept walking.

"My parents don't agree with something. So I'm not welcome back."

Sayaka looked up at the voice in confusion, her expression shifting once she realized who it was.

"Oh...hey, Kyouko-chan."

She attempted a smile--oh Hell no that wasn't working. Fine, fine. She sighed and put her head back in her hands. How to explain...

"Well...my parents...are mad at me, and we got into a fight so...here I am." She shrugged weakly.

Slowly she stood up, examining the city around her. Cars went by, pedestrians...city lights that glimmered brilliantly in the darkness. It was dark and dazzling, still full of sound even so late in the evening.

"...Hey would you...take a walk with me?"

So How's being an angel?

"The same as me being alive, really."

"I don't have to worry about my Soul Gem quite so much though."

[guardianseraph-blog]

"Yeah, I guess so, but I'm kind of..." She and Homura had never gotten alone fantastically but she would like to say she considered her a friend anyway. Any friend of Madoka's was a friend of hers, at least, in this timeline.

Besides being dead and all gave her a new perspective.

"I'm kind of embarrassed. I really was starting to fall apart before I went and killed myself against that Demon."

“True; I suppose they shall.” Homura gave a light smile at ‘still playing the hero’ this girl certainly viewed being a magi as though she were a super hero… She chuckled lightly, “I suppose things really haven’t changed then, Miki-san… still the defender of justice… hmm? I am sure the others will be glad to see you, Miki-san.”

[guardianseraph-blog]

Sayaka blinked, taken aback by how severe the girl's expression was. "Something awful? Like what? What's going on?"

“I’ve met something…awful.” She said quietly. “Something that I fear will cause many innocent deaths.” She could see that this girl was not an enemy through her new psionic power. “I am a Sibylla, a priestess of Tempus Spatium.” (Time and Space as a deity.) She raised her eyes to meet the other girl’s. “I cannot allow this being to cause such horrors.” She wanted to do something, but she was only one Magical Girl.

Even as an angel, she remembered.

~*X*~

The streets of Mitakihara were dark at night, even with the city lights in full blaze. Sayaka didn't know where she was going, her steps stilted and automatic. Frozen.

Her eyes were vacant and unfocused.

Her parents' voices rang in her head.

It wasn't right, they said. It couldn't be what they thought, they said. But again and again they circled in her mind, growing louder, drowning out her thoughts.

Her feet turned down a familiar alleyway that echoed with sounds of battle only she heard.

"Game over!"

"Game over is right," she muttered, casting her eyes around. She was almost hoping to see someone, anyone...Homura, Mami, Ky--

Kyouko. 

Oh the roots of all her problems went back to that girl.

With a sigh she covered her face for a moment before leaving the alleyway, wandering into the depths of the subway tunnels. She sat down on a chair in an empty station, the darkness holding no fear for her, and she quietly broke into tears.

"I'm such an idiot..."

Sayaka's smile disappeared quickly.

"Hey, are you all right?"

Paraietta looked off to the side. “My name is Paraietta.” She said somberly, feeling the constant emptiness in her.

[guardianseraph-blog]

"Yeah, I know they miss me...but with the way the timelines are right now, I guess it doesn't matter, right? They'll run into 'me' eventually." She shrugged, her expression somewhat hard to read. "I've just been trying to help Madoka a little, still playing hero...nothing's changed, right?"

The fact that the other was smiling at her certainly caused Homura a great deal of confusion. “I haven’t really been up to much… what of you Miki-san? … the others miss you dearly… it should be nice if I could inform them of what you have been up to.”

The angel gave a wide and friendly grin.

"It's great to meet you, name's Sayaka Miki!"

[guardianseraph-blog]

Sayaka felt her feet leave the ground, which wasn't anything unusual considering she hung out with Madoka a lot, but the sensations and such...

She turned her eyes onto the Creator in puzzlement, her expression shifting to a guarded one. "You want me and Kazumi to harm a Magical Girl? Why should I do something like that? I'm a guardian angel, not an avenging one!"

It sent the angel a feeling of warm peace. “Do not worry child. I’ve called you here for a reason, and I will send you back.” It reached it’s hand out and the girl hovered up to come face to face with The Creator. “You will return to the physical world, with a complete physical body. I have a mission for you.” It paused for a moment. “You and Kazumi will find a Magical Girl named Paraietta, who calls herself a Sibylla. She seeks information that is not hers to have. You will see to it that she is disposed of.”
