Akame regarded both Kasumii and Elise with a courteous nod, holding back a sigh at Elise’s rather eccentric mannerisms. She couldn’t help but note to herself that they hadn’t been doing much training as Magical Girls since the newcomers had arrived into the city. Wasn’t that the point of all this? Yuna’s words however reminded her of the cause of such setbacks.

Indeed, it seemed like the Primordials were getting bolder and more rampant as the days progressed. They would need to deal with the immediate threat first, in this case the Inverted Rainbow Yuna mentioned, and then focus on their training. But alas, even the meeting to discuss that very subject had to be interrupted as each Soul Gem buzzed with power.

The tell-tale sign of Primordials, and lots of them too. With the other Magical Girls already deploying themselves, Akame transformed into her Magical Girl attire and leapt away in a jet of flames. She kept an eye on her darkened Soul Gem, knowing that she had to end this battle quick before she dropped down in exhaustion completely.

After all, there was still the worry of a Magical Girl killer on the loose. That wasn’t too pleasing to ponder right now and Akame quickly spotted her target. A gray-skinned thing with a rather large sword and tarnished long hair, the remnants of blonde coloration faded into the long locks. The sword was crusted with rust, a hinged suit of blue armor clung to the Primordial’s frame. It eyed Akame with vicious intent, leaping into the air to intervene with a mighty swing of its blade, the alleyway forgotten beneath its feet.
