Revision as of 20:56, 6 March 2024

Knowing that Kyosuke's injuries would not heal, Mabayu vowed not to let Sayaka sign the contract. She was confident that she could win her trust. Using her repeated experiences and what she knows about Sayaka's nature, Mabayu guides Sayaka, who is unsure about the contract, towards not signing it. However, when Kyubey makes it known that Mabayu is a magical girl, Sayaka becomes indignant and becomes a magical girl as well. Mabayu is disgusted with herself for manipulating Sayaka with her friendliness, but when Homura tries to make fun of her, she unleashes her feelings on Sayaka, then disappeared to challenge Walpurgisnacht.

Summary

Day 1

An alarm rings, waking up Mabayu Aki. She's made her decision.She gets ready for school and heads straight to Homura's room in the hospital. She apologizes to Homura for what transpired in the last time loop, but Homura tells they she did her best. They go over their guidelines for this time loop: Mabayu will dissuade Sayaka from making a contract. Homura is a little surprised to hear this coming from her. Mabayu has thought it over and come to the conclusion that it's not worth having Sayaka as a potential ally in the battle against Walpurgisnacht, especially considering how poorly it went for them last time. They're going to need a different approach for the battle against that witch. Homura has two questions for her. The first is what will happen to Kyosuke since his hand will never heal if Sayaka doesn't contract. Is she prepared to accept the responsibility of that? Mabayu understands it was an unfortunate accident, but if hoping for a miracle leads to an even greater tragedy than he should accept his fate. Homura is about to ask her second question but Mabayu has already thought of that. This time she plans on dissuading Sayaka as her friend. With what she knows now, she's sure to win her trust.

Day 11

The bell on the café door rings as Sayaka bids goodbye to the last customer of the day. Sakie giggles pleasantly as she thanks Sayaka for her hard work. She really enjoys having such an energetic girl working at the café. So far their reenactment of the previous time loop has been going well. Sayaka asks her why she approached her of all people the other day. Mabayu tells her she figured she would be in need of the money, and would regularly see Sayaka in the CD section. She points out Sayaka's love of classical music, causing Sayaka to fidget in embarrassment a bit. She asks if it doesn't suit someone like her, but Mabayu shakes her head and tells her it really suits her. Sayaka always seemed to be enjoying herself when she would listen to the CD previews. Sayaka giggles sheepishly at the compliment, so Mabayu asks her if she's free after their shift. She may not know much about music, but she loves movies and she knows the perfect movie that Sayaka would love: a biopic on Mozart that won tons of awards. Sayaka says she's heard of it. Mabayu cheerfully asks her once more if she has some free time. Sayaka hesitates slightly before saying yes. Since the mall is so close by, she can swing by her house and pick it up. Sayaka asks if it has to be today with a less than enthusiastic look on her face, but Mabayu is persistent. She promises to meet her at the mall after their shift.

At the shopping mall's café, Mabayu is dismayed to learn she was referred to as that "UFO person". Sayaka chuckles and admits her first appearance left a strong impression on her. Mabayu swears she really saw something that time, but Sayaka just laughs. She tells Mabayu she doesn't have to sulk about it, and she won't hold it against her if she does end up getting any mysterious messages from outer space. Mabayu makes a face and asks if she really wants her to send Sayaka a telepatchic message. Sayaka is a little taken aback as Mabayu insists she can. She's not really going to do it, but she knows this is the best way to get Sayaka to like her.

Day 14

At café Récompense, a customer asks a glum Sayaka for the bill. When Sayaka doesn't respond at first, Mabayu steps in and rings the customer up. Once the customer leaves, Sayaka half-heartedly bids them goodbye. Mabayu knows this is the point at which she was pondering whether or not to contract with Kyubey. She decides now's the time and takes the plunge. She goes up to Sayaka and asks her if she has time to hang out after work today. She has a coupon that's about to expire, so she wants to know if Sayaka would like to have some tea with her.

Inside the shopping mall's café, Sayaka thanks Mabayu for lending her the movie. When asked if she's seen it yet, she tells Mabayu she has as it was one she'd been interested in for a while. Mabayu asks for her impressions. Sayaka admits she might not like this movie that much. Even if a person were to have talent or try their hardest, there's no guarantee they'll be happy. It's too sad. Bad guys should suffer the worst and the people who persevered should be rewarded. Those are the kind of stories she prefers. She apologizes if she offended Mabayu when she notices her reaction. Mabayu looks concerned and asks Sayaka if she's worried about something. If she wants people to be rewarded for their hard work, then something must have happened in her life to make her feel that way. Sayaka is a little surprised at this and tells Mabayu she has surprisingly sharp senses sometimes. Mabayu attributes this to her late mother who was a fortune teller. As a result, Mabayu has inherited some of her powers and can see into the future a bit. She promises she's serious about this and offers to read Sayaka's future. Sayaka isn't so sure she wants her fortune read since she doesn't believe in that kind of stuff, but to her surprise Mabayu agrees that fortune telling is an irresponsible matter. Either it happens or it doesn't, so she doesn't have to believe in the results of fortune telling. If she feels like she's too close to talk with her friends, then maybe she can be honest with a fortune teller who's a complete stranger. The point being talking it out helps to clear your mind or collect your thoughts.

Sayaka hesitates, then venture sto tell her she has a childhood friend. This friend of hers was a genius violin player since he was little, and it's thanks to him she gained her appreciation for classical music. However, he had an accident and his fingers may never move the way they used to. Mabayu listens sympathetically as Sayaka goes on. The most painful part is he's lost the will to live and has become a completely different person. She presents Mabayu with a hypothetical situation: if he were to go overseas for a really expensive surgery, he might be able to get the movement in his fingers back to the way they were. If Sayaka had the means to pay for this surgery, would it be ok to just give it away to him? Mabayu gives it some thought before answering. It's certainly a difficult question, and if she were to go through with it their entire relationship would change although not necessarily for the better. She relates it to the main character in the movie they just saw. If the MC were to suddenly go deaf, he would be freed from his curse and could then live happily ever after. She can already guess what Kyosuke is probably thinking: he's been passionate about the violin since he was little and it's the only thing he knows how to do. Is that really a happy way of life? If he loses the ability to play violin and all he can do is complain about it to everyone around him, then what he really needs is the courage to live without the violin. Sayaka asks her if this is her fortune, but Mabayu apologizes. It wasn't so much fortune telling just now as it is one of Mabayu's mother's sayings. Sometimes, Sayaka gets the feeling her senpai can see right through her, then cheers up and thanks her for the valuable advice.

Day 15

Mabayu lurks the hospital corridors in camouflage. She tried her best to dissuade Sayaka, but that doesn't mean she can let her guard down. She'll have to use her magic to hide herself properly. Sayaka looks around in Kyosuke's hospital room, but he isn't there. When she steps out into the lobby, she runs into his nurse. She recognizes her as his friend, and explains his doctor's appointment had been moved up so he's currently in the rehabilitation room. She thanks them then stalks off. Mabayu knows how stubborn Sayaka can be, so it won't be an easy job to convince her. Kyubey appears and the two being to converse. Kyubey is clearly intent on contracting Sayaka, so all Mabayu needs to do is push her a little more.

Later that evening, Sayaka and Mabayu are talking during their shift at the café. She asks Sayaka if she was at the hospital today, since she saw her while she was out making a delivery. She then asks if she had gone to see a certain childhood friend of hers. Sayaka nods sadly. Although she had gone, she wasn't able to see him since he was in rehab. Mabayu wonders who it was she saw then. Sayaka asks if this is about Madoka but Mabayu shakes her head. It was her other friend, the one she often sees her chatting with in the mornings. Maybe it was yesterday when she saw her at the hospital. Sayaka's face falls as she asks if she meant her other friend, Hitomi. Mabayu looks worried and asks if she said something she shouldn't have, but Sayaka tells her it's ok.

Day 16

Scene 1 (Homura)
Homura waits in a dark, abandoned building. She calls out to Mabayu telepathically but there's no response. She should have contacted her by now if she had succeeded in preventing Sayaka from contracting. Still, that doesn't mean anything. She stares as Hitomi and others stand around in a daze. Homura realizes it's about time and gets to work. First she needs to recover that agent.

Elsewhere, Sayaka battles Elly and her familiars Daniyyel & Jennifer. She strikes at the familiars but the witch takes advantage and gets the drop on her, injuring Sayaka. Homura then appears out of nowhere, commenting on the difficult time Sayaka seems to be having. Sayaka is amazed to see the transfer student is also a magical girl. It seems she was hiding something after all, so now Sayaka can't trust anyone anymore. She vows to fight completely on her own from now on and rushes at the witch in tears. Homura realizes she's failed in the worst possible way.

Day 17

(There are no scenes in the main story for Day 17).

Scene 2 (Sayaka)
Sayaka walks to school despondently as she's greeted by Hitomi and Madoka. However, Madoka quickly notices something is wrong. She becomes startled when Kyubey walks up to and greets her, pleased they were finally able to meet. Hitomi asks what Madoka is staring at, but Madoka asks if she can't see the cat thing before them. Kyubey introduces himself and explains he is speaking to her with telepathy. Hitomi watches as Madoka seems to be reacting to something and turns to Sayaka, asking her how funny it seems. But Sayaka doesn't really respond. Instead she apologizes to Hitomi and informs her she'll be walking to school on her own from now on so there's no need to wait up for her. She turns and leaves, leaving Hitomi wondering what's going on with the two of them.
Scene 3 (Madoka)
Sayaka walks through the city as the sun begins to set. As she watches from afar, Madoka asks Kyubey what Sayaka is doing. He explains she's following the trail of a witch, confirming Madoka's suspicions that Sayaka is going to fight the witch on her own. She had been alone at school all day, so perhaps this was the reason Sayaka had refused to talk to them. Madoka asks Kyubey if it isn't dangerous to fight witches. He replies that there is a great risk to one's life, and even more so for Sayaka who is still new to this. If she were to fight alone, she is sure to have a difficult time. This only encourages Madoka to follow after her.
Scene 4 (Homura)

Sayaka is struck by Anja. Madoka calls out her name, causing Sayaka to look up in surprise. She warns her not to come, and when Madoka tells her to stop, she warns her once more not to come any closer. She can handle something like this on her own. As she says this, Anja once more lunges at Sayaka, striking her again. Madoka cries out once more as Sayaka says this is her life now that she's become a magical girl. Madoka begs her to stop, saying she can't take anymore. She turns to Kyubey and demands he make her a magical girl right now but before he can do so time stops. Homura arrives and surveys the scene. Madoka will do whatever she can to save Sayaka because she's simply too kind. Perhaps it would be better if Sayaka were to disappear. But Homura dismisses this thought. If that were the case she'd still probably hope for a miracle. Therefore she can't allow Sayaka to contract either, no matter what it takes.
