❝ Do you really have a wish in your heart, Madoka Kaname? That look on your face tells me that you have no idea what you really want in your life. With that being said, I suggest that you forget about wishes. You don't look ready. ❞ The faint smile plastered upon her pale face is polite, but the rest of her expression is a little bit distant. The look makes it seem like she is lost in her thoughts or, maybe, she is troubled by something. Her voice sounds gentle, almost thoughtful, but her choice of words can pierce anyone in their tracks. Her smile still remains on her face, but her purple gaze has lost any of its remaining warmth.
Homura didn't know what sparked Madoka to come to the dazzling water fountain today, but she didn't bother to think too deeply into it. Her heart aches all over again when she caught the sight of Madoka in her red ribbons. It seems like Madoka has heard that this beautiful garden is one way to find her, the girl that can grant any wish. Madoka nervously broke the silence by cutting to the chase. Pale hands grip the black parasol a little bit too tightly as she stares down at her former friend. A strong gust of wind brings forth the scent of blooming flowers, but their pleasant aroma can soothe Homura's heart.
She has become familiar with making brand new magical girls, but... She did not expect Madoka to find her like this. She thought she still had more time. The lizard-shaped ear cuff carries the cold laughs of her dolls straight to her left ear. She isn't sure why her dolls broke out in laughter, but their laughs still felt like they were directed at her. Either way, she will not let them bother her with their nonsense.
❝ You should go back... Your friends are waiting for you. ❞
It's a good thing she did not have to worry about hunting down Kyubey now. She still wants to torture every last Incubator until each and every Kyubey becomes familiar with pain. She has true power now. But she still cannot allow Madoka to ruin her new chance at a safe and happy life. Not again. She will be stronger this time.
She cannot back down now.
