.:Contract?:. ~Puella Magi Madoka Magica OC RP~, ~In exchange for a wish, will you become a Magi?~ Options

[Dragoncookie]

Rita snickered, shaking off the illusion of blackness and merely walked away. That meant nothing for her, she had no intention of messing with anyone's plans as long as they kept out of her motives. She kept her sword in place and left the kids alone, she had no more business with them for now. Besides, she had to review her plans for the day after. One more time.

Erin felt dizzy, her head ached. Where was she? What happened? "Who's talking?" She managed to say. Around her, she could barely see anything other than the blackness, and a few colored blots she assumed were her friends. What had that voice meant? Their incubators were evil, but they weren't. Besides, Erin had no idea what this voice was planning, how could she get in the way?

Koyuki could feel they were trapped inside an illusion, but it was very real. She couldn't make it fade away, not alone. How had that pink magi just up and walked out? She felt... different. Koyuki hadn't managed to fish anything out of her mind, it was a giant blank, and every of her memories was locked up so tightly she couldn't even see them.

Leon growled, something bestial inside of him threatened to break free. It was similar to the feeling he had when Erin had become a witch. He knew that if he let this loose he may not return to who he was, and so he pushed it down into his darkest depths. "We don't even know who you are, lady. How are we going to get in your way? You attack us, twice, and then demand we leave YOU alone? I have no love for those rats, and I don't give a damn what you do to them, but I swear to you, if you hurt any of my friends I will do things so terrible to you that you will wish you had never been born." The last bit of that was almost a growl as it escaped his throat, the threat was very, very real.

Elly could only lay there and listen to the darkness threaten to swallow her brother, she was doing everything she could to suppress his rage, but it was stronger than she was. It scared her, to see her brother like this. He had always been so sweet and kind, but to have so much rage in him, whatever had happened to him since coming to Japan had changed him, and it wasn't for the better.

The voice spoke again, this time a bit taken aback. "I-I will not listen to your threats, boy! I had to attack you as you were too close to getting in my way, and I will not allow that! Stay away from the industrial district, even to slay witches. I will take care of them. This is your only warning, I will not hesitate to kill you next time." Suddenly the darkness faded away and they were lying in the middle of the street, next to Koyuki's house.

[Dragoncookie]

Erin blinked rapidly, the real world had returned. "What the hell just happened?" She asked, getting up and breaking her transformation. "Who was that?" She knew that most likely no one had a reply for her, but it wouldn't hurt to try. She sighed, trying to remember what they were doing before they were attacked by the mysterious girl in black. Where had she gone, anyway? She'd just faded away, just like that other girl, Rita. Rita... who was she really? And why did she seem to know what she was doing so well?

"What the hell..." Koyuki said. "I have no idea who this crazy maniac is, but we didn't even know anything about any plans! How could we even get in their way?!" Everything seemed more and more far-fetched everytime Koyuki thought about it. Who was trying to kill them, and how could they get in the way of a plan they didn't even know existed? More importantly... what was this plan the mysterious voice was so set on protecting? It all smelled terribly of danger.

Leon was shaking with rage, he wasn't sure what was going on, but he knew that somehow the Incubators were responsible again. He remembered his vow to crush their home planet, and couldn't help but wonder if this was in response to that. He stood up and helped Elly to her feet, the wound was gone, but her school uniform was stained with blood. He wasn't sure what they were going to do about that.

Elly looked down at her new school uniform, she hadn't even gotten to go to class yet and it was ruined. What was she going to do now? "Onii-san....my uniform!" She had tears in her eyes, this was just the last straw, she was unwilling to take it anymore. "Why is everything so hard, Onii-san? Elly doesn't want to deal with this." She sniffed a bit and wiped away a tear. "Elly also wants some ice cream."

[Dragoncookie]

Koyuki giggled. She'd forgotten completely how it was nice to be a little kid, and suddenly felt compelled to help Elly, she reminded Koyuki of herself when she was just a kid.
"It's okay, it's okay." She said in an attemot to comfort her. "Come with me, I'll wash your uniform, lend you some clothes, and then we can go get some ice cream. I know a great ice cream place that's really close!" She took Elly's hand, smiling.

Erin laughed at Koyuki. She really IS getting old, helping kids as if she's an old lady...! She commented to herself, watching the scene.
"Koyu is right!" She smiled at Elly. "There's a great ice cream shop just a few blocks away. All you need is a change of clothes!" She nodded, softly pushing them to Koyuki's house. That's right, Erin. Pretend not to have a second intention. She kept nodding, while encouraging herself mentally.

Elly sniffed away her tears and nodded. "Okay, Elly will listen." She followed Koyuki towards the house, and turned back just before entering. "You are coming too, right Onii-san? Erin-nee-chan?" She smiled at them with her most innocent smile, trying to hide her ulterior motives. She followed Koyuki into the house, wiping away what was left of her tears. The thought of trying on new clothes and eating ice cream had cheered her up quite a bit, and if Koyuki-senpai could fix her clothes, she would be even happier.

Leon chuckled a bit at Elly, he knew this was mostly an act. "Of course I'll go with you, I want to spend time with my precious little sister." After she had gone inside he turned to Erin. "Besides, I've kind of wanted to take you out for some sweets too." He said with a smile. He gripped her hand and just enjoyed the moment, after all they had nearly died....again. It was getting kind of crazy, this life, but since it brought him to Erin, he wouldn't trade it for anything.

[Dragoncookie]

Koyuki opened the door and sighed, her apartment was a mess again. She pushed Elly into her room and took a shirt out of the closet. It was simple, white and mid-sleeve, with a red heart with a cute face. It was way too short for Koyuki, it was already too small even before she had become a witch, so it would fit Elly, most likely. She held it to the girl. "Here, get changed, I'm going to clean some things up." She said, smiling, and ran out of the room, heading to the broken window.

Erin waited until Elly was completely out of their sight. She smiled at Leon, holding his hand tighter. "That's really nice!" She said, blushing a bit. It was nice to be alone with him again, even if just for a few moments. Erin thought about how her life would've become if she never met Leon. It would be so awful, she didn't even want to think about it. She pointed to the door. "Well, I guess we should go?" She said, not really feeling like it. She wanted to... extend their time together. Too bad she didn't have the power to.

[Shaddow]

Leon shook his head. "No, they will be fine changing without me there." He pointed to the bench across the street. "Let's go sit down, shall we?" He took her hand and led her to the bench, sitting down and still holding it. "Erin....listen. I have something to tell you and I'm sorry if you don't want to hear it, but I need to say it." His heart started to race, he didn't want to do this, but it needed to be done. He waited a moment, allowing her to respond before he started in, he wanted to make sure she was listening to him.

Elly tried on the shirt, it was really cute on her and was only a little big, especially in the chest. Elly grumbled a little, that was the one area she was really left behind with other girls. It didn't matter though, she was cute enough, that's what her Onii-san always told her, and she believed him. She adjusted the shirt and switched out for another skirt, this one red, going well with the shirt. She stepped out into the living area. "Koyuki-Senpai, I'm all changed!"

[Dragoncookie]

Erin blinked. "Umm... o-okay... go ahead, I'm listening." She sat down, feeling uneasy, what did Leon want to say to her? Maybe he thought that their kiss had been a mistake and was just clearing that up, but that would be awful. Erin wanted him to say something else, but she kept her hopes down. She hated feeling disappointed, especially at someone who didn't deserve it.

Koyuki grinned at Elly. "You look so adorable!" She took the uniform from her and put it on the top of her laundry pile. "There, I'll wash it and it'll be back to you very soon!" She said, walking to her room and pulling a few red and white bracelets put of her jewellery box, as well as a key-shaped golden necklace. "Here, put these on, they'll look great!" She said, placing them on Elly's hands.

[Shaddow]

Leon took a deep breath, he could tell that Erin was already disappointed, and she didn't even know what he was going to say yet. He hoped this didn't ruin their relationship. "Erin...I really care about you, a lot, more than I could even really express. I don't want anything to ruin that." He smiled at her. "But, I want you to know that I care deeply about my sister as well, so it is very important that you and her try to get along. I know she can be an annoying terror, that is what little sisters do." He took her hand again and squeezed it. "So please, promise me you will stop fighting with her, I know it will be hard, but I believe in your. I just want everyone to get along." His heart was racing, what if she refused? What if her and Elly couldn't get along? How would he make a decision like that?

Elly squealed with delight. She looked adorable. Now Onii-san would HAVE to pay attention to her, instead of that trollop he had outside. Speaking of which, she had left them alone for entirely too long. She dashed out the door, looking for them. "Onii-san! Look at me! I got new clothes!" She couldn't see them, had they left her? She started to get worried, and angry, why would he leave her? It must have been that girl! It's always that girl! She started to stomp back inside when she heard her brother call her name. They were sitting on a bench across the street. Elly breathed out a sigh of relief and regained her composure before heading over.

[Dragoncookie]

Koyuki followed Elly outside, stretching out her arms in the open. The sun was warm. Not hot, just warm. The fall weather was really beginning, wasn't it? Koyuki took a deep breath, inhaling the scent of fall in Mitakihara. From somewhere very far away, she could smell faling red leaves and mushrooms under a tree. She walked a few steps, enjoying the soft breeze. It was the first time she had stopped to breathe the world around her carefully since she'd returned. A laugh escaped her throat, as happiness rose to her mind.

Erin sighed. She had no idea how to get along with Elly, she was okay with it, but it was the little kid that seemed to be all against it. "Fine, I'll try... but you should try to talk to your sister!" She said, getting up as Elly greeted them. "Oh, hi, Elly-chan!" She walked to the girl and smiled. "You look so adorable!" She commented, taking a quick peek at her own clothing. Just the school uniform, as usual. Erin wished, for a moment, to be able to go home and dress up something else. These clothes did not suit her, at all.

[Shaddow]

Elly smiled at Erin, she was going to be polite for Onii-san's sake. On top of that, this girl was rather nice to her and did save her life, but maybe she was trying to get to Onii-san through Elly? Elly could not be sure, so she would have to be polite but careful. She would not allow anyone else to have Onii-san. "Maybe Erin-nee-chan would like to go home and change too?" Elly said with a bit of sweet venom.

Leon blushed at how Elly was acting, it was a cool act, feigning being nice while secretly jabbing at Erin. But two could play at that game. Leon walked up to Erin and put his hand around her shoulder, pulling her close to him. "I think Erin-chan looks just fine, Elly." He could tell that his remark would sting, so he followed up with. "Of course you look great too, all three of you do. I kind of feel like Charlie." He was followed by blank stares, the cultural difference and age difference might have been too much. "You know...from Charlie's Angels? Nothing." He sighed and started to walk down the road. "Come on, we have Ice Cream to get."

[Dragoncookie]

Erin gave an inner stare to Elly. She could tell the little girl wasn't completely trustful of Erin, but it was okay, as long as she didn't try to put herself between Erin and Leon.
"Yes, let's get going!" Erin smiled and held Leon's hand. She knew the way perfectly but let Koyuki lead, she knew it would be a lot more enjoyable for her than it was for Erin. A smooth breeze blew by and her hair got even messier. Erin sighed and tried to fix it with her other hand.

Koyuki walked down the street, joyfully leading the way to her friends. She knew it very well, Erin and her used to go to that very shop every afternoon after school. She smiled and stopped in front of a normal-looking building. It was smaller than most houses and had no glass walls. At least from this side. Koyuki pulled the door and her eyes were invaded by a feast of colors, driving a smile to her lips. The walls were striped light pink and white with adorable strawberries painted, and the floor was checkered yellow and white. A glass wall was on the back, and the ceiling was also made of glass. Several small tables were scattered all around, and a waitress happily skated around. Koyuki loved this shop. It was so nice.

[Shaddow]

"Uwaaaaaaah! It's so amazing!" Elly said with wide eyes, she hadn't ever been to an ice cream shop in Japan before, and it looked incredible to her! There were so many colors and so many styles! She walked up to the display and looked at the different kinds of ice cream, they even had cake! Elly's eyes were sparkling and she had a huge grin on her face. Just the site of this was enough to forget all her troubles. "Onii-san....I don't know what to get." She said with a sheepish grin.

Leon laughed and stepped forward, it was really hard to decide. He didn't even really like sweets but this made his mouth water. He could smell the fresh waffle cones being baked in the back, he might just earn his first cavity at this place. There were so many choices, even he was overwhelmed. "Uh, Erin-chan...Koyuki-Senpai, how about you two decide for us?" He turned back to face them with the same sheepish grin that Elly had.

[Dragoncookie]

Koyuki grinned and walked up to the display, examining the flavors. She was a huge fan of the most awkward mix, cherry and coffee with caramel topping. Not forgetting marshmallows, colored sprinkles and a generous dose of whipped cream. But, today she wanted to try something different.
"I'm sorry!" She said, facing Leon and Elly. "But this is a very important choice that you must make alone. It can change your whole life!" She tried her best to keep a serious face on, but couldn't help a little giggle.

Erin laughed. "That means Koyuki has no idea what to have either!" She looked at the colorful display, she could have her favorite, blue sky and marshmallow ice cream-- was that a cookie ice cream?! Erin licked her lips, she had been waiting for that flavor to arrive for so long!

[Shaddow]

Elly practically shook with excitement, she felt the shiver run down her spine but suppressed it, after all she was a big girl now, twelve years old, even if she did sometimes act younger. If she wanted to impress Onii-san, she would have to act more mature. She turned and looked at Leon. "Onii-san, I just want a strawberry icecream with gummy bears on it in a waffle cone. Can I have that?" She was trying not to speak in third person, sure it was endearing but it made her seem younger than she was.

Leon laughed and put his hand on Elly's head. "Of course, Elly, but since you are being a big girl, how about you order for yourself." He could tell that she was trying really hard to be more mature, and he liked that. Elly had always acted a lot younger than she was, it was probably due to being spoiled by mom and dad. He said internally a bit and smiled on the outside. It was nice to have the world right, even if only for a minute.

[Dragoncookie]

Koyuki licked her lips when the waitress handed her the ice cream she'd ordered, the chocolate-covered waffle cone slowly melting in her hands. It was her cherry sorbet and coffee favourite with a twist- Erin's fave, blue sky. No one knew exactly what 'blue sky' contained, nor what made it so dazzlingly blue, but in Koyuki's opinion, it vaguely tasted of bubblegum. She ate a little of the white whipped cream, the strong flavor of the warm caramel topping overwhelming all others. She hadn't asked for marshmallows, instead she had colorful chocolate and a dash of strawberry. "Ahh..." She smiled at the ice cream. "I'll have a stomach ache so big, I won't even move tomorrow!" She giggled and picked her wallet, paying for all four ice creams.

Erin looked around, picking a good table for them. "Hmmm... How about over there?" She pointed at a table that was in the corner, with a nice view of the plains behind the city through the window. She walked there, carefully handling her mint and chocolate with cookies ice cream not to lose a single drop. The marshmallows on top of it dangerously swung, but Erin wouldn't let them fall. She would save the poor marshmallows, and eat them!

[Shaddow]

Elly sat down with her ice cream and tried her best not to make any little sounds of joy. She really liked ice cream, but she was even happier to be with Onii-san, without any danger around. She was unfortunately too slow and could not sit next to Onii-san and was forced next to Koyuki-Senpai, but at least she was across from him. She couldn't help but smile as she ate her ice cream, contentment feeling her and spreading to those around her without effort.

Leon sat next to Erin and laughed as she struggled so carefully to not lose anything from her leaning tower of ice cream. It was a nice change of pace to be able to sit around and enjoy ice cream without fear of death. He thought back to the way things were when he had first met Erin and he realized that things had gotten a lot more dangerous since then. Sure they fought the occasional witch back then, but recently it feels like their lives were in danger every day. Something was going to happen, something big, and he did not need his danger sense to warn him of it.

[Dragoncookie]

A thrill began to climb up Koyuki's spine, she could feel an imminence of... something. She lifted her head suddenly to look around... and dropped her ice cream all over her clothes. "N-nooo!!" She screamed, making an overly dramatic pose. She took a sad bite of the waffle cone. "Urgh... This is gonna be hell to clean... maybe if I get a spoon, I can eat it...?" She muttered to herself, looking at her hopelessly dirty skirt.

Erin tried to supress a giggle, but it soon became an unbearably large laughter attack, that she couldn't hold back anymore. A tear rolled down her cheek, she knew she was being mean to Koyuki but didn't care, Erin needed a good relax and that sure was doing the trick. She wiped her tears away when her laughing began to fade out, apologizing repeatedly, but still making the most stupid face she could, twitching from her tries of supressing the laughs.

[Shaddow]

Elly looked away, she knew how sad it was to not only lose ice cream, but to get it on your clothes too. she looked out the window and watched the light blue sky as a few birds passed by. She was not one for philosophy, but she wondered how long the world could stay at peace. Things were getting more and more crazy every day, and witches seemed more and more common. Why did this have to happen? She wondered if the universe was worth saving, if this was the price. Silently, she took another bite of her ice cream.

Leon moved immediately, he wasn't sure why it was so important to him, but he had a cloth and water quickly and began to dab the ice cream out of the skirt. "You sure are clumsy, Koyuki-senpai." He said with a grin. The ice cream had a lot of sugar in it, but he was able to clean almost all of it out, she just had a small damp spot on her skirt now. As he stood up and smiled he felt something....it wasn't his danger sense....but something wasn't right. "Koyuki-senpai....are you using any illusions right now?"
