Chapter Text
“Let’s hurry while Yachiyo and the others are fighting!” Sana said to her
“Okay!” Iroha respond as she prepares to use her magic to fight against this wretched witch of The Magius
“Give us back the energy you got by causing so many people to suffer. I swear, we’ll protect this city that brought us all together. The city that we all love!”
and as she launched her arrow at Eve to make her first strike “Please…make this attack work!!!”
But then Eve gracefully avoid the attack as she went to grab her with her left claw “Ahh!” Iroha yelled as she was grabbed
Eve then lifts Iroha up at eye-level to take a closer look at her “Eve…"
How long has it been since she last saw her older sister? probably after she had saved her along with Touka and Nemu from a witch. truly ironic isn’t it?
Iroha thought She's not doing anything. she didn’t grab me to kill me. Is she looking at me?
Shitori Egumo responds to Iroha’s thoughts by sending her the memories they had together before she had become a half-witch in order to have her big sis understand her true identity
While that is going on, a branch from the Uwasa of The Eternal Sakura begins to glow a very bright pink as it finally blossomed since the four hospital girls are together once more
Iroha immediately notices it along with Sana as she grabs it from little Kyubey “Wait a minute, that branch isn’t supposed to bloom unless all four of us are together. Why now? Like we still need Ui to join us”
But then she realizes “Eve is keep staring at me…no it can’t be”
then she recalls back to the Uwasa of The Eternal Sakura and its story behind it
“But it blossomed when I touched Eve”
“no”
But then she recalls to when Ui calling her name at various points of her life as finally came to the conclusion that
“Eve is…”
Shitori Egumo is now convinced that she and her big sis will have to get away from The Magius and Kamihara in order to secure their safety from the outside world
“I can’t bring myself to believe it…I…I searched so hard, and you’re-”
IROHA!
Sana shouted as she tried to save her from Eve’s grasp to which she promptly slapped her away with her right claw and then she put Iroha out unconscious before starting to break away the chains that had held her to the large structure.
“Anyway, I’m off to break the chains holding back Eve-!” Touka suddenly saw that Embryo Eve was already in the process of breaking her chains without her aid “What has gotten into her?!?!” “It seems that Embryo Eve has a mind of its own…but she’s not reacting to Walpurgis like what we initially thought” Yachiyo respond to Touka while she’s still recovering from their fight
The surrounding magical girls watched as Eve finally break her chains and promptly landed on the ground leaving a major impact before spreading her wings to lift herself up
and take flight
Sana ran back to the group after she recovered from her fall to tell them “GIRLS! Eve has Iroha with her!!”
When the magical girls take a closer look at the half-witch, they saw that Iroha is limp in one of her claws to which most of the girls reacted in shock and are now getting their weapons ready in order to save her while the Magius is confused as to why Eve has taken a liking to Iroha and is not even aware that Walpurisnaught is in the area
As Shitori looked down at the magical girls below, she figures that they would just be a nuisance in regards to both of them except for their friends, Touka and Nemu. but even with that, they seen to have lack their moral compass and are generally not like themselves for the last several months given that they formed a cult of sorts and have been feeding herself with witches in order to make her more powerful
So Shitori turns away from them with a low screech and begins to leave Kamihara City while alreating her familiars to go back to her
But then the magical girls are now even more confused why Eve is flying away from them and the city so they try to catch up with their weapons in hand and some of them even try to attack the half-witch but Shitori respond to that by sending her familiars to them
It ended up lasting for several hours and has gotten to a point where she just can’t take it anymore and her familiars’ numbers are dwindling
Looks like she has no other choice except for this
One of the abilities that the half-witch had is to have the doppel system that the magical girls have in this city into overdrive and have their respective doppels take over them entirely. She really hates this power but given that the magical girls who are following her and Iroha’s trail for the last several hours, she might as well get it over with and make sure that it’s just for them only.
then Shitori let out her own alpha call that only they can hear and nobody else
SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEECH!!!!!!
After she done that, she turned around and goes back into flying while letting the doppel overdrive and the impurities in the girls to do their job
_______________
Late into the evening, Shitori has found the perfect spot to have her witch labyrinth in and begins to use her magic to begin the work.
As her labyrinth is manifesting, Shitori puts her unconscious big sis into a gorgeous outfit that she conjured up and then puts her into a bed for a goodnight sleep
