[A pigtailed, bespectacled girl appears suddenly, dressed in a typical middle school uniform. She looks and feels small against the backdrop of the stars, tiny and trembling. She is confused and more than a little scared. She isn't strong enough on her own to handle a solo mission...]

M-- Madoka? Tomoe-san?

[Her shoes scuff against the floor as she turns in a circle, taking in her surroundings. She doesn't feel the presence of a witch, but she's still really new at this. And yet there's no familiars-- nothing. But there is a kitchen. Why is there a kitchen in the middle of space?]

What is this? A barrier? No, wait... [Her eyebrows furrow.] I thought that was a dream. [There's no time for her to be scared. If this /is/ a witch's barrier, then she needs to be on her guard. She's not defenseless; she'll figure something out.]

Hello? Is... anyone here? [She cups her hands around her mouth to project her soft voice.] If anyone can hear me, please respond!

Ah... [What a mess.]
