A several rooftops away from the group of magical girls, and inky black orb floated in the air next to cover. Through it a being of great power watched what was going on, enough so far before it finally seemed to lost interest. The orb seemed to dissipate into nothing, like ashes scattered to the winds, and seemed to disappear into nothing. Soon, its existence had ceased to be, returned to the [b]void[/b]. But for what reason had it been used to watch on at the scene from a distance away? What use was looking at these magical girls to a horror in this instance?

[color=silver]"Ey, this burger isn't bad! Chef, i demand another!"[/color] the now untransformed magical girl said as she sat at the re-purposed cafeteria table which now was far comfier than it had once been in its heyday, a few crumbs falling from her mouth as she spoke. 

To Annabelle, her orb forming that portal to bring her back here was nice. But then she had gotten...hungry. 

The blob of tentacles, aka the "chef" that had made her the large triple-decker burger which had just been finished in minutes, seemed to roll all of the eyes on its body. This magical girl had more of a hunger than some horrors, even its own master. The large, empty plate coated in crumbs in front of this human was proper evidence of that. But it was practice at least for cooking, which had become this particular creature's hobby after helping in the destruction of worlds with its master. Just because it destroyed didn't mean it couldn't have a hobby, after all. 

However, its many eyes drifted away from the untransformed magical girl towards the doors into the cafeteria as another four-legged beast with multiple mouths and eyes and skeletal tentacles coming out of its back sauntered in and looked at it. Ah. 

"  ?" the 'chef' uttered to its fellow servant of Soth in an alien, rather unintelligible language, though their master's magical girl seemed to understand what was being said. 

"   ,         ," the other creature communicated back in the same alien language. 

Good, very good for this place indeed. Such a city to be graced with their lord's now-expanding presence, his might, his influence! Though moving forward with using abandoned places like this as footholds, transforming them into his territory, that seemed rather fitting in a twist of ironic fate. This city, though, seemed a magnet for monsters and magical occurrences, and it was here their master could indulge his curiosities and feed his purposes with the blood of his enemies! Knowledge and all things be his, for all returns to the void in the end no matter how hard they try. All shall fear and respect the lord of The Infinite Abyss! [u][b]Glory to Soth[/b][/u]!!!

[color=silver]"....Sooooooo, when's that next burger comin', eh chef?"[/color]

[color=violet]"Well....seems it all has worked out decent, i suppose. The one girl isn't actually dead, i like the fake out though as a tactic. That other girl with the void left at least,[/color] Alice said, a shiver going down her back after that last sentence as she continued to observe through her scope, having been updating Nina on the situation so far as an observer. As much as the seeming outright murder/consumption of another magical girl almost pushed them to jump in, she had voted to watch for another few minutes to see what things were like. 

After all, magical girls could be deceptive things. 

But that wall of darkness, that looming void, there was no doubt as to what patron had created that. Soth, lord of The Eternal Abyss. A being that lurked beyond the universe, beyond the stars, but whose reach encompassed all. He'd destroyed worlds, his void had devoured other patrons whole, he could snuff out a sun like it was nothing on a whim. She'd heard rumors of the horror, and more than these in her line of work, but never had she heard of him taking on a magical girl of all things. Not that a horror doing so was abnormal, but among those whose reputation flagged them as dangerous Soth was among the highest on that list. What use could that being have here, however? That answer could be potentially terrifying, or maybe not as bad, dependent on that horror's will. 

[color=blue]"Good. But if that other one is still hangin' out there, can't ya take a shot? I'm already tired of hearing about her antics, yare yare.[/color]

Alice sighed to herself a bit mentally. Nina's distaste for the devouring darkness of that other darkness girl was something, but her lack of fear in the face of that other girl was not something Alice approved of. Then again, Nina had never heard the rumors, the stories, nor seen that wall of purest void, an emptiness that never would be filled or sated, moving down that street and gathering up the fleeing spirits. She'd try to explain to her compatriot, at least, but....hopefully they never had to face that patron's forces. At least for the city's sake, and their own at that rate. 

[color=violet]"And risk a fight with the people who just got to the scene too? No thanks. But if she tries to make a break for it i might take a shot, depending. At least we don't have to go out there for now, eh Nina?"[/color]

Nina rolled her eyes from her position, lying back on the comfy couch and watching one of those daytime cooking shows. Something about food trucks and such, it was at least giving her some way to cool the nerves and keep a level head. Personally she'd want to ensure that body-eating filth was gutted and smashed into a fine pulp. However, Alice was the type of experienced head to help her in this too. The world of magical girls was an odd one, stupid sometimes really in her opinion. At least their "useless goddess" was good for some things overall, including payment in coins. Speaking of which, said goddess had promised to contact them again today, right?
