@emit %r%r It's late at night in Mitakihara General. For the past few days, Ao Karina has been particularly sick. To perhaps no one's surprise who know the pair, Hannah Sharpe has spent much of those days with her dearest friend, trying to keep her flagging spirits up. There's a few cards on the table from various classmates and relatives. Boris lays down in a corner of the room, and Hannah is busy dosing off in a chair beside the girl. %r%r Hannah had long ago convinced staff here that letting her stay overnight was good for both her own and Ao's health. %r%r So deep in an exhausted sleep is Hannah that she doesn't recognize the burst of power as a new Witch rises atop Mitakihara General's roof. Three patients die almost immediately. One slowly gets out of her bed, leaves the room quietly, and heads for the rooftop. %r%r Hannah doesn't notice, but her Familiar opens an eye. The service dog follows the girl to the rooftop stealthily, growing alarm in Boris' heart and mind. %r%r Then Ao dissappears into the Witch's Labyrinth before Boris can grab her and drag her back. A mental bark into Hannah's mind, and she jolts awake. Fear grips her heart as her senses come alive. A quick henshin later, and she's rushing to the rooftop, phone in hand. %r%r The Witch's sudden emergence is extremely odd. But that's hardly on Hannah's mind as she rings up Homura Akemi and Tuxedo Kamen, all but screaming at them in a voice they've likely never heard from her. Complete hysterical terror. %r%r "Mitakihara General, now! Rooftop! It's Ao-chan, she...she went into a Witch's Barrier! Get down here!" She equally pleads and demands, before hanging up just as quickly. %r%r Miss White bursts into the barrier. The Labyrinth is almost fitting for the area: floors and walls made of medicine cabinets, leading upwards with stairways of twisted gurneys and tiles leading upwards to a massive round area. Atop sits a number of small buildings, miniature hospitals. Screams echo from inside the tents as Ao Karina slowly lumbers towards a center building, the power of a Witch emanating from it. %r%r Stuffed animals clad in nurses uniforms holding hack-saws, bone saws, scalpels, and syringes happily bounce around, waving their instruments as they try to 'treat' the incoming magical girl. Miss White's fists tear through the horde, the woman beyond words as she screams in fury. Her emerald-green magic darkens at the edges as she unleashes pure terror and hatred, tearing them apart in a berserker rage as she tries to get towards Ao Karina. But even for her, the horde is massive. %r%r The little brunette walks, slowly, inexorably to her doom. One of the fluffy nurses has a gurney, and the girl is already being strapped down into it. %r%r
