- Part 1
- ------------------------
- [witch’s barrier]
- Kyoko: “Here it comes…! This is the first witch in a while!”
- Kyoko: “Mitakihara’s been pretty dried up for witches lately…”
- Kyoko: “Well then, guess I can just take my time wiping them out!”
- [battle]
- Kyoko: “Now as for you, it ends here!”
- Kyoko: “Haah!”
- [the witch absconds, and the barrier disappears…]
- Kyoko: “...!?”
- Kyoko: “That witch… it had the balls to run away!?”
- Kyoko: “Dammit, it slipped right out from under my nose…!”
- Kyoko: “Sigh…”
- Kyoko: “First witch in forever, and I got fired up for nothing.”
- Kyoko: (Hm…?)
- [a Small Child appears]
- ???: “........................”
- [Kyoko un-transforms]
- Kyoko: (That girl… was she caught up in the barrier?)
- Kyoko: “... Hey there, you alright?”
- [skip to outside the alley, in the city]
- Sumomo: “Thanks, Big Sis! You can call me Sumomo!”
- Sumomo: “But I wonder why I’d suddenly collapse in a place like this…?”
- Kyoko: “Beats me… maybe you’re anemic or something?”
- Kyoko: (Of course, it was really just that witch’s fault…)
- Sumomo: “But… right before I passed out, I think I saw a weird-looking monster…?”
- Kyoko: (Monster… did this girl see the witch?)
- Kyoko: “T-That was probably just a dream you had while you were out, don’t you think?”
- Sumomo: “Is that so… yeah, that must be it!”
- Sumomo: “Thanks for helping me out! … Uhm…?”
- Kyoko: “My name’s Kyoko.”
- Sumomo: “Kyou-ko… How do you spell it?”
- Kyoko: “With [Anzu] as in apricot, and then the [Ko] in Kodomo.”*
- Sumomo: “Anzu and Sumomo…”
- Sumomo: “Wow, it’s kinda like we’re sisters! Is it okay if I call you Big Sis Kyoko?”
- Kyoko: “......!?”
- Kyoko: (This is just like…?)
- Kyoko: (Nah, settle down… it’s just kind of a similar feeling…)
- Sumomo: “... What’s wrong?”
- Kyoko: “Nah, it’s nothing.”
- Kyoko: “You just remind me of a kid I know, that’s all.”
- Kyoko: (Of my sister who’s no longer here anymore, huh…)
- Sumomo: “Is that so~”
- Kyoko: “... Yeah.”
- Kyoko: “That aside, where’s your house? Is it within walking distance?”
- Kyoko: “If you can’t walk there…”
- [*guu~*]
- Sumomo: “Ah, Big Sis Kyoko! Are you hungry?”
- Kyoko: “............”
- Sumomo: “To thank you, wanna come to my house and get something to eat?”
- Sumomo: “Our house is a cake shop!”
- ------
- Fruit Cake Vendor
- “Sugar Plum”
- Sumomo: “Dad, I’m home!”
- Sumomo’s Father: “Welcome back, Sumomo. Oh, who’s that you’ve got with you?”
- Sumomo: “This is Big Sis Kyoko!”
- Sumomo’s Father: “... Thank you so much!”
- Sumomo’s Father: “If you hadn’t found her, I’m not sure what we would’ve done…”
- Kyoko: “Nah… it’s not that big a deal…”
- Sumomo’s Father: “Sumomo, are you sure you’re all right?”
- Sumomo: “Yup, I feel totally fine! And it’s all thanks to Big Sis Kyoko!”
- Sumomo’s Father: “I see… Well, we’ll have a doctor look at you later, just in case.”
- Sumomo’s Father: “... Miss Kyoko, please, you must have something to eat from our shop.”
- Sumomo: “My dad is a pastry chef! His specialty is making cakes with fruit in them.”
- Sumomo: “Big Sis Kyoko, do you have any favorite fruits?”
- Kyoko: “Hmm… Apples, I guess?”
- Sumomo: “Not apricots…?”
- Kyoko: “... I don’t decide things based on my name…”
- Sumomo: “Ahahaha!”
- Sumomo’s Father: “Well then, please wait just a moment.”
- Sumomo’s Father: “For this store’s renowned Chocolate Apple Pie!”
- Kyoko: (What the heck… This shop’s pretty quiet.)
- Kyoko: (Even though it’s a holiday, there aren’t any customers at all.)
- Kyoko: (It’s pretty neat and clean, and not too uncomfortable either…)
- [Here you are…]
- Kyoko: “Whoa, that looks tasty!”
- Kyoko: “It’s a real treat for the eyes, too!”
- Kyoko: “The chocolate almost looks like a tower I can climb on!”
- Sumomo: “It tastes really good too! Taste it and see!”
- Kyoko: “Well then, no point in waiting…”
- [*chomp*]
- Kyoko: “......!?”
- Kyoko: “............”
- Sumomo: “Well? Well well? Big Sis Kyoko!”
- Kyoko: “Sumomo… I wouldn’t really say this is tasty.”
- Kyoko: “I’d say that eating this kind of pie is like being born all over again!”
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
- *TL Note: Kyoko's name is spelled in kanji as 杏子. The 杏 by itself can also be pronounced "Anzu". Anzu means apricot and Sumomo means plum, hence the sisterly connection.
- (It's also worth noting that the name of Kyoko's deceased sister is Momo, which means peach.)

- Part 2
- ------------------------
- Kyoko: “Thanks for the food!”
- Kyoko: “Maan… somehow I’m in a really good mood now!”
- Sumomo: “Yaay!”
- Sumomo’s Father: “If you’d like to, please eat and drink as much as you want.”
- Sumomo’s Father: “I can fix up any kind of food you’d like.”
- Kyoko: “Wow, are you sure!?”
- Kyoko: “But wait, you should save it for your other customers…”
- Sumomo’s Father: “Oh, that’s not a problem.”
- Sumomo’s Father: “At this rate, it doesn’t look like we’ll be seeing any…”
- Sumomo: “........................”
- Kyoko: (Ain’t that the truth… there’s not a single other customer in sight.)
- Kyoko: “Is it always like this?”
- Kyoko: “Even though your cooking’s this good.”
- Kyoko: “Don’t you think it’s weird that you haven’t gotten more publicity?”
- Sumomo’s Father: “No… it’s because of my own shortcomings.”
- Sumomo’s Father: “Valentine’s Day is almost here, and I still haven’t finished any of my orders.”
- Sumomo’s Father: “It seems I still haven’t trained myself enough…”
- Sumomo: “Dad keeps saying stuff like that, but… is it because other shops have tastier food?”
- Kyoko: “That’s not it at all. This taste has my own personal Seal of Quality.”
- Sumomo: “Right…!”
- Sumomo: “The customers who always come here, though…”
- Sumomo: “They kept saying we aren’t ‘convenient’ or ‘familiar’ enough.”
- Kyoko: (Convenient… Familiar…)
- Kyoko: (That’s right… it’s the location that’s bad. It’s too far from the train station.)
- Kyoko: (But no, it’s not just that…)
- Sumomo: “When Dad was little, he went to study abroad at a shop in a foreign country.”
- Sumomo: “So he says he never had a ‘connection’ to home or anything.”
- Kyoko: (... Still, shouldn’t a genius sweets maker like him be something that’s in pretty high demand?)
- Kyoko: (I guess being able to make good food just isn’t enough anymore, huh…)
- Sumomo: “If they could just stop and try one bite of it…”
- Sumomo: “Then they’d understand how tasty it really is…”
- Kyoko: (Ah…)
- Kyoko: (It’s just like… I was back then.)
- [flashback to the kyoko of the Past]
- Kyoko: “Why isn’t anybody coming in? The church…”
- Kyoko: “Even for 5 minutes. If they’d just lend their ears and listen…”
- Kyoko: “Everyone could finally see that there’s truth in what Dad has to say…”
- Kyoko: “............”
- [return to the Present]
- Kyubey: “Leave it to me, and I can make that wish come true.”
- Kyoko: “...!?”
- Sumomo: “Eh… huh? Did that animal… just talk…!?”
- Kyubey: “My name is Kyubey.”
- Kyubey: “If you’ll tell me what it is you wish for, I can grant one wish for you.”
- Sumomo: “What I wish for…?”
- Kyubey: “That’s right. And in doing so, you’ll form a contract with me and…”
- Kyoko: “‘Become a magical girl’, is that it?”
- Sumomo: “Big Sis Kyoko?”
- Kyoko: “Beat it, Kyubey.”
- Kyoko: “This town doesn’t need any more magical girls.”
- Kyoko: “Jeez…”
- Kyoko: “The witches here are dying out as it is, what are you even trying to do?”
- Kyubey: “Kyoko, I believe I was talking to this girl here.”
- Kyubey: “Sumomo, you want everyone to try your father’s cakes, right?”
- Kyubey: “If you’ll entrust it to me, I promise I will make that wish come true.”
- Sumomo: “Trust it… to you…?”
- Kyoko: “...Yeah, and just how’d that turn out for my family, huh?”
- Kyoko: “That wish didn’t come close to making up for the horrible mess it caused, did it?”
- [flashback again to Past Kyoko]
- Kyoko: “... D… ad…?”
- Kyoko: (No way… they, they’re all dead…?)
- [back to the Present]
- Kyubey: “Your wish was granted, though. That much is true, isn’t it?”
- Kyoko: “You’ve already said that enough. Beat it.”
- Sumomo: “Big Sis Kyoko!?”
- Kyubey: “Going the forceful route, huh? … Good grief.”
- [door closing, the two girls are Outside]
- Sumomo: “Uh… all that just now…”
- Kyoko: “That guy’s Kyubey.”
- Kyoko: “He looks for girls he thinks have potential and turns ‘em into magical girls in exchange for a wish.”
- Kyoko: “But there are really harsh consequences that come with it. He’s just all-in-all a crooked dude.”
- Sumomo: “Magical girl…? Exchange…?”
- Kyoko: “You remember that monster thing you saw earlier, before you passed out?”
- Kyoko: “It’s a magical girl’s responsibility to keep fighting against those things. Right up until we fall down and die, pretty much.”
- Sumomo: “So that monster… wasn’t a dream…?”
- Kyoko: “Yeah, that thing… that witch and Kyubey both recognized you.”
- Kyoko: “Seems you have the potential to be a magical girl.”
- Kyoko: “Don’t you go making any kind of wish if you see him again!”
- Kyoko: “Cause there’s no way any good will come of it!”
- Sumomo: “But…”
- Kyoko: “If you want someone to eat this cake, I’ll just bring some of my friends over here.”
- Sumomo: “Really!? Thank you so much, Big Sis Kyoko!”
- Kyoko: “Yep, leave it to me!”
- Kyoko: (Looks like I’m getting soft on her cause she’s close to my little sister’s age…)
- [cut to blank white background and a certain Familiar Face]
- That kid who became a magical girl because of me…
- I just don’t want the same thing to happen again…
- {battle}
- [back in the restaurant]
- Sayaka: “... Well gee, I can’t say I expected an invite from you of all people.”
- Homura: “Thanks so much for the invitation…”
- Kyoko: (I know I promised Sumomo I’d bring some friends and all that, but...)
- Kyoko: (I’m not normally friendly with these guys, which could be kinda bad right now.)
- Kyoko: (This seems like a place Mami might like, but I’d feel too weird calling her…)
- Sayaka: “So, can I start getting psyched now? This chocolate cake’ll be a work of art!”
- Sayaka: “It’s made to invoke the feeling of handmade Valentine’s chocolates!”
- Homura: “I want to do something like that too, for sure...!”
- Sayaka: “I wanted to call Madoka over too, but Homura told me not to, so…”
- Homura: “S-Sorry.”
- Homura: “I wanted to keep it secret from Miss Kaname that I’m making friendship chocolate…”
- Sumomo: “Sorry to keep you guys waiting~!”
- Sumomo: “One Raspberry Choco Tart and one Pumpkin Choco Souffle!”
- Sumomo: “And finally, one Chocolate Apple Pie!”
- Sumomo: “Big Sis Kyoko.”
- Sumomo: “Thanks again for bringing your friends over!”
- Kyoko: “Yup~ just like I promised!”
- Sayaka: “Whoa, you doting on someone younger than you? What rare miracle is this?”
- Kyoko: “N-Never mind what I’m doing, now let’s shut up and eat.”
- Homura: “Right, now then…”
- Let’s Dig In!
- Sayaka & Homura: “...!?”
- Homura: “T-This… is…”
- Sayaka: “DELICIOUS~!!!”
- Sayaka: “What is this? It’s actually moved me to tears!”
- Homura: “I… that extra sweetness made me feel lightheaded for a second.”
- Sumomo: “Yay!”
- Kyoko: “Was I right, or was I right?”
- Sayaka: “On that note, what is it that made you wanna show us this place?”
- Kyoko: “Well, actually…”
- [brief fade out to black, then back in]
- Homura: “Kyubey’s got his sights on this girl…?”
- Sayaka: “And he’s trying to get a wish out of her?”
- Sayaka: “To generate more publicity for the shop...”
- Kyoko: “Yeah, I felt as much, so I thought ‘why don’t I bring some friends over here?’.”
- Sayaka: “Well, if it’s for a place with food this tasty, I’ll gladly help out!”
- Sayaka: “I’m sure Madoka and Mami will feel the same way.”
- Homura: “I think we should tell Miss Tamaki and the others in Kamihama about it, too!”
- Kyoko: “Thanks for your help!”
- Kyoko: “I wanna spread the word about this place to as many people as possible.”
- Sumomo: “Thank you! Big Sis Kyoko and her friends!”
- Kyubey: “Going with the honest straightforward campaign, are we?”
- Kyoko: “You little… you’ve got some balls, coming around here again.”
- Kyubey: “All you have to do is make a wish.”
- Kyubey: “But I guess it’s fine if you don’t want to use a roundabout, convoluted method like that.”
- Sumomo: “If I give you my wish…”
- Sumomo: “It’ll make it so everyone comes over here to eat my dad’s cakes?”
- Kyubey: “That’s right.”
- Kyubey: “This shop doesn’t seem to be in very good shape as it stands, though.”
- Kyubey: “With your wish, becoming the #1 most popular shop in town will no longer be just a dream either.”
- Sumomo: “............”
- Kyoko: “Sumomo, don’t lend one ear to this guy.”
- Sumomo: “Yeah… but…”
- Kyoko: “Sure, what he says is true. You wish for a miracle to happen.”
- Kyoko: “Then, your beloved dad…”
- Kyoko: “If he found out the real reason all those people were suddenly flocking in here, what would you do then?”
- Kyoko: “If he found out that his own daughter’s magic tricks were the cause of his success…”
- Kyoko: “If it was all because of your selfish meddling and nothing else, what would he think?”
- Sumomo: “Ah…”
- Kyoko: “There’s one idiot out there who made a wish like that, and it tore her family apart.”
- Kyoko: “... Yeah, that idiot is me.”
- Kyoko: “I wished for a miracle for the sake of other people, and that’s how it turned out.”
- Kyoko: “So please, all I ask is that you don’t end up like me.”
- Sumomo: “........................”
- Sumomo: “All right then, Big Sis Kyoko, you’ve got my promise!”
- Sumomo: “Sorry, Kyubey.”
- Sumomo: “Me and my Dad are gonna do our best without relying on miracles.”
- Kyubey: “........................”
- [he leaves]
- Kyoko: “He left, huh…”
- Kyoko: “You’re a good kid, Sumomo. Now do your best to keep your promise!”
- Sumomo: “Yeah!”
- Homura & Sayaka: “Heheh.”
- Kyoko: “... Welp, we gotta get going.”
- Sumomo: “Ah… Big Sis Kyoko.”
- Kyoko: “What?”
- Sumomo: “No… it’s nothing.”

- Part 3
- ------------------------
- [*Flashback*]
- [It’s almost Valentine’s, huh.]
- {Yeah…}
- [If we can’t bring enough customers to the store in time for Valentine’s this year, then…]
- [“Sugar Plum” will just have to close up shop.]
- {Yeah… I know.}
- [That being said, Sumomo… it seems like it’ll be a bit difficult for us to find another job in this city.]
- [Because of that, we’ll need to pack up and start getting ready to move out of here…]
- {No!}
- {It, it’s not like anyone said we have to give up and quit yet!}
- [That’s true… I’m sorry, Sumomo.]
- [We’ll give it our very best, right to the end. Exactly like we promised your mom at her grave.]
- [*present time, sumomo is alone in the streets*]
- Sumomo: (Lots and lots of customers flocking into Dad’s shop…)
- Sumomo: (That was Mom’s dream…)
- Sumomo: (But… no matter how hard Dad works and gives it his all…)
- Sumomo: (If customers won’t come in, then the shop can’t stay in business…)
- Sumomo: (If we end up moving someplace else…)
- Sumomo: (I’ll have to say goodbye to Big Sis Kyoko and the others, huh…)
- Sumomo: (Even though we got to be really good friends…)
- [*flashback to kyubey’s visit*]
- Kyubey: “This shop doesn’t seem to be in very good shape as it stands, though.”
- Kyubey: “With your wish, becoming the #1 most popular shop in town will no longer be just a dream either.”
- [*back in the present, a Gertrud Barrier has appeared*]
- Sumomo: “........................”
- [*she is then sucked Inside the barrier*]
- Sumomo: (Eh, what… where is this?)
- [*enter Gertrud*]
- Sumomo: (This place… that monster!)
- Sumomo: (Help me… Big Sis Kyoko!)
- Kyubey: “........................”
- [*cut to Kyoko, having a merry time elsewhere*]
- Kyoko: “Welp, guess I’ll pay ‘em a visit today too… to “Sugar Plum”!”
- Kyoko: “Ah… hold on.”
- Kyoko: “It’s like I’ve started treating them as if they’re familiar faces…”
- Kyoko: “If that’s how it is, I think Sumomo will be pretty happy too, right?”
- [*she senses a Witch Presence*]
- Kyoko: “...!?”
- Kyoko: (This magic… it’s the witch that turned tail the other day!)
- Kyoko: (Sumomo’s shop is over in that direction too… I’ve got a bad feeling about this.)
- [*in the alley*]
- Kyoko: (Its presence is getting closer… the barrier should be right around here…)
- [*enter homura*]
- Kyoko: “Eh… hm?”
- Kyoko: “Ah, are you chasing after the witch too, or something?”
- Homura: “No… I, uh… I was keeping track of Kyubey’s movements.”
- Kyoko: “Kyubey…?”
- Homura: “Yes…”
- Homura: “I thought, if I could talk with him about a no-contact restriction between him and Miss Sumomo…”
- Kyoko: “That scumbag… he still hasn’t given up, huh?”
- Homura: “Yeah… and for the witch’s presence to reappear so suddenly on top of that…”
- Kyoko: “Then, Sumomo got sucked in…!?”
- Homura: “I’m not sure, but… from this distance, the chance of getting caught in it is quite likely.”
- Homura: “The timing of all this, and to someone Kyubey has been targeting…”
- Kyoko: “Mm… what are you trying to say?”
- Kyoko: “Could it be… was he looking for an opportunity to catch that witch in a dangerous situation...”
- Kyoko: “...to try and force a contract out of her!?”
- Kyoko: “No, there’s just no way, something that demonic and underhanded…”
- Homura: “...He’d do it. That’s just the sort of creatures they are.”
- Kyoko: (Quick with the retort… I guess she must have a reason to say that so assertively.)
- Kyoko: “Well we don’t have the time to be fooling around, let’s dive on into the barrier!”
- Homura: “R… Right!”
- [*Inside the Barrier*]
- Kyoko: “I can't get a good reading. We should try going deeper into the heart.”
- Homura: “Yeah, let's hurry…!”
- Kyoko: “...!? Hey, just now…!”
- Homura: “Yeah, it's the witch's presence. Someone's--”
- Kyoko: “Shit, it's too far away! I can't get over there in time!”
- Homura: “... Miss Sakura. Can you trust me with capturing the witch?”
- [*sumomo is Attacked*]
- Sumomo: “Gh!”
- Kyubey: “Hurry and make a contract with me!”
- Kyubey: “That way, I can turn you into a magical girl!”
- Sumomo: “Kyubey, I'm sorry! I can't do that!”
- Sumomo: “I made a promise to Big Sis Kyoko!”
- Kyubey: “Wait all you want, no one's coming to save you.”
- Kyubey: “If you don't become a magical girl here and now, that witch will end your life.”
- Kyubey: “Don't you have any wishes that might be worth risking your life for?”
- Sumomo: “But…”
- [*enter Gertrud once more*]
- Sumomo: “Gyaah!?”
- Kyubey: “Ah, the witch…!”
- [*enter kyoko, ready to kick some witch Ass*]
- Kyoko: “Sorry for the holdup, Sumomo. I got you mixed up with some pretty dangerous guys…”
- Sumomo: “Big Sis Kyoko!?”
- Homura: “Miss Sumomo, are you alright!? Were you injured!?”
- Kyubey: “Kyoko, and Homura… where on Earth did you come from?”
- Kyubey: “Until just now, there was no trace of your presence to be felt here.”
- Kyoko: 《This is your time-stopping power, huh… thanks a million, it's because of your help that we got there in time. 》
- Kyoko: 《Take care of Sumomo. Leave this witch to me.》
- Homura: 《Okay… thankfully, her injuries don't look too serious.》
- [*faceoff with gertrud*]
- Kyoko: “Don't think you're gonna get away with hurting my cute little sister figure!”
- Kyoko: “You piece of trash… I'll kill you!”
- Kyoko: “End of the line! Haaaaah!!”
- Kyoko: “I ain't satisfied yet… Here's an extra serving for ya!!”
- [*the witch is Down, the barrier disappears*]
- Sumomo: “Big Sis Kyoko… so cool…!”
- Kyoko: “You're not hurting anywhere, are you…!? Sumomo!”
- Sumomo: “I'm okay! Just got a few scrapes…”
- Homura: “I've already given her first-aid.”
- Kyoko: “You've had a pretty horrible time of it, huh… jeez, I'm pretty pathetic myself.”
- Kyoko: “Right here, because I let just one witch get away…”
- Sumomo: “No... I'm really thankful! You've come to my rescue two times now!”
- Sumomo: “I… made sure to keep my promise.”
- Sumomo: “I told him that no matter how many wishes I might have, I'll never ask for miracles from anyone!”
- Kyoko: “Aah, smart girl!”
- Kyoko: “Still… you went through some ridiculous crap ‘cause of that.”
- Kyubey: “Honestly…”
- Kyubey: “If you'd become a magical girl, you might have been able to forge that path all on your own.”
- Kyoko: “You little shit…”
- Homura: “Kyubey… you detected the presence of a witch.”
- Homura: “And despite that, you purposefully led Miss Sumomo into danger without warning her beforehand, did you not…?”
- Kyubey: “If I answered differently, would it cause you to doubt me any less?”
- Homura: “..................”
- Kyubey: “In any case, it seems that Sumomo's resolve is unbreakable.”
- Kyubey: “If she's decided for herself that she will not form a contract…”
- Kyubey: “Then from this point forward, I will no longer appear before Sumomo.”
- Kyubey: “Is that alright with you, Sumomo?”
- Sumomo: “Yep! That's fine with me!
- Kyoko: “... Can we really put our trust that hairball?”
- Homura: “We can…”
- Homura: “Though he may withhold some dangerous information from us, I think we can trust him to honor his word.”
- Kyoko: “I see, that’s one relief at least.”
- Sumomo: “... Thank goodness!”
- Sumomo: “If I ran into Kyubey again, I think I might have had second thoughts next time.”
- Kyoko: “Hm… why’s that?”
- Sumomo: “Well…
- Sumomo: “If we can’t fill up the shop in time for Valentine’s…”
- Homura: “... You’ll have to move away!?”
- Kyoko: “Hey, I had no idea something like this was going on!”
- Kyoko: “Well, we’ve just gotta generate some more publicity for the shop before Valentine’s gets here!”
- Kyoko: “Let’s get back to the storefront, Sumomo!”
- Sumomo: “O… Okay!”
- [*back outside the shop, there is a Crowd bustling*]
- (Bustle, bustle…)
- Homura: “So many people… what are they doing?”
- Sumomo: “They’re in front of our shop…?”
- [*Inside*]
- [I’m so sorry for the inconvenience…! We’ve been flooded with reservations, you see… reservations for our Chocolate Cakes are being given out through a lottery drawing…!]
- [We’ll be handing out lottery tickets, so please wait in an orderly line…]
- Sayaka: “Oh… Kyoko and Homura? Kind of a weird duo, huh…?”
- Kyoko: “If it ain’t Sayaka. What’s up with all this commotion, huh?”
- Sayaka: “Huh, you haven’t heard yet?”
- Sayaka: “”Sugar Plum” has become a huge sensation.”
- Sumomo: “Eehhh!?”
- Sayaka: “We’re being flooded with orders for our Valentine-themed Choco Cake!”
- Homura: “But why so suddenly…!?”
- Sayaka: “Some big-name fashion model, apparently…”
- Sayaka: “Word is that she visited this place recently and ate something really delicious.”
- Sayaka: “It sounded like she was talking about this shop’s Choco Cake!”
- Sayaka: “...And now, we’ve got scouting agents and such coming in who think it was this place.”
- Sayaka: “I’m pretty sure there was an interview and some other stuff about it in a ‘BiBi’ WEB article…”
- Kyoko: “Homura, did you know about any of this?”
- Homura: “Yeah… ah, here it is!”
- [*black Webpage background*]
- [WEB Article Exclusive!
- Nanami Yachiyo
- Extended Interview]
- Homura: “Wait, Miss Yachiyo!?”
- Kyoko: “She’s one of Kamihama’s magical girls, isn’t she? To think that girl was such a hotshot celebrity!”
- Homura: “Could it be… before this, I wonder if Miss Tamaki invited some other people here.”
- Homura: “At some point, Miss Nanami and her friends must have agreed to go and check it out together.”
- Homura: “And so they kindly paid the shop a visit… I suppose?”
- Sumomo: “Ah, this pretty-looking lady…!”
- Sumomo: “She was hanging around with all the big girls from middle and high school!”
- Sumomo: “So that lady was a supermodel!”
- Sayaka: “...So what now? Kyoko called for me and Homura.”
- Sayaka: “Homura promoted it, and now it’s a hit with Kamihama’s trendy ‘hip’ kids.”
- Sayaka: “So now it’s suddenly a Huge Prospering Business, I guess?”
- Kyoko: “On that note… looks like they’ll have no problem securing a full shop on Valentine’s Day, right?”
- Sumomo: “Yeah… and that means we won’t have to move away anymore!”
- Sumomo: “Thanks so much, Big Sis Kyoko! Miss Homura, Miss Sayaka!”
- Sumomo’s Father: “I certainly must express my own gratitude as well.”
- Sumomo: “Dad…!”
- Sumomo’s Father: “Why, if Sumomo and Miss Kyoko had never met, right now we’d be…”
- Kyoko: “Nah… who do you think you should say that to? Homura’s the one who made it work out.”
- Kyoko: “But I’m so happy for ya, Sumomo! You carried out your family’s dream.”
- Sumomo: “Yeah!”
- Homura: “... A tiny miracle, wouldn’t you say?”
- Sayaka: “Hehehe.”
- Kyoko: “........................”
- Sayaka: “.........?”

- Kyoko: “........................”

- Sumomo’s Father: “We truly owe so much to you! Thanks to your help, my lifelong dream has come true…”
- Sumomo: “Come back soon~! Big Sis Kyoko!”
- [*back to present*]
- Kyoko: (A small miracle was able to happen without Kyubey’s help…)
- Kyoko: (With just some honest effort from Sumomo and her dad, and just one little chance encounter…)
- Kyoko: (Those guys…)
- Kyoko: (They made their dream a reality all on their own, with their own power.)
- Kyoko: “............”
- Kyoko: “What if… back then, I’d…”
- Kyoko: “........................”
- [*enter Sayaka*]
- Sayaka: “Hey now, what’s with the long face, huh?”
- Kyoko: “Hm…?”
- Kyoko: “Well, if it ain’t Sayaka.”
- Kyoko: “What are you doing out here?”
- Sayaka: “...When we were heading out, something seemed kiiinda off about you.”
- Sayaka: “I just got a little worried, is all.”
- Sayaka: “So what’s up? Is something bothering you?”
- Kyoko: “Hmmm, so I was really that easy to read?”
- Kyoko: “... Yeah, you’re right.”
- Kyoko: “.........”
- Kyoko: “Once again, I ended up bending my own rules.”
- Kyoko: “I went and used my own magic for the sake of somebody else.”
- Sayaka: “You mean for Sumomo and her family?”
- Kyoko: “Yeah.”
- Sayaka: “.........”
- Sayaka: “Look, I don’t really know much about what you’ve been through…”
- Sayaka: “But you…”
- Sayaka: “It made you happy to see that girl resolve everything without making a contract, yeah?”
- Kyoko: “... Mm? Ah, yeah, that’s true.”
- Sayaka: “You weren’t feeling envy, or any other unpleasant emotions, right?”
- Kyoko: “Like hell, of course not!”
- Kyoko: “From the bottom of my heart, I was so joyful and relieved to see that family achieve their own dream.”
- Sayaka: “Then everything’s fine, isn’t it? You helped them out because you wanted to help.”
- Sayaka: “And in the end, that’s doing something for your own sake, yeah?”
- Sayaka: “So you didn’t bend a single thing.”
- Sayaka: “It feels good just to be thanked for doing a good deed, don’t you think?”
- Kyoko: “.........”
- Kyoko: “... You know what, you’re totally right. That makes me feel a lot better.”
- Kyoko: “Man, Sayaka, you sure have a knack for talking out people’s problems!”
- Sayaka: “Hehe, you just leave it to little old Sayaka~!”
- Sayaka: (Well… if we’re talking about other people’s problems, anyway.)
- [*some Romantic Snow starts falling*]
- Kyoko: “........................”
- Kyoko: “Ah…”
- Kyoko: (I’ve already started forgetting what it’s like to feel nothing but resentment and disgust, but…)
- Kyoko: “...There really is this much beauty in the world, huh.”
- Sayaka: “Whoa, are you okay? Could it be that you’ve hit your limit break?”
- Kyoko: “Aaah… you shut it! Nothing’s wrong with me!”
- Sayaka: “Welp, looks like there’s nothing to worry about. ...Then with that, I’ll take my leave!”
- Kyoko: “Hm, you going home?”
- Sayaka: “It seems like you’re back to your old self, so yeah.”
