A wish...?

It was a battle for a wish for the purposes of preventing... something from building up, and keeping the skills of the magical girls sharp? That sort of explained why there would be something like a battle between magical girls, but a wish... for a few moments, it was hard for Hikari to decide what to do. While it wouldn't be something to admit to, she'd just gotten a wish of hers, the desire to be a magical girl, fulfilled. Now she was encountered with the idea of a battle to claim a wish, against other magical girls...

What was she supposed to do? What kind of wish could she ask for? Could she wish for anything? It was overwhelming to even think about, and for a few moments the short (current)redhead was unable to make any sort of coherent reply.

Then...

"... This... there's no way I can just give any kind of answer to that sort of thing without thinking about it!" she declared, finally, with a huff. She perhaps said it a little more sharply then intended, but even if the other girl had intervened to save her that didn't mean her attitude wasn't irritating. "But... I can't just... if it's that important there's no way I'm not going to take part!"

Indeed, after some pursuit, it was possible to see just who Tokiko had been talking about. On a distant rooftop, a horned magical girl with a large kanabo resting on her shoulder stood over the prone form of another, shorter girl with a less distinct outfit.

"Haaah, that was such a drag," Sonya could potentially hear, as she got closer, "You got yourself knocked out so I had to run from a fight to save your place in the Hex Night... kinda tempted to smash your orb myself, but we're friends 'n all..."

The oni magical girl's shoulders sagged.

"No way I'd do something two-faced like tha-eh...?"

She looked up, eyes falling on the shape of the approaching girl.

"... Oiii, so someone was followin' us, huh?"
