The wind pulled at her pink pigtails as Madoka Kaname held her ground, the air itself humming with leftover magic. Sayaka and Mami stood at her sides, a united front against the fading echoes of the witch. Her fingers tightened around the smooth curve of her bow. With a cry that was more plea than threat, she released a single, radiant arrow—a bloom of pink fire that dissolved the last remnants of the Labyrinth into nothing. In the sudden quiet, she knelt to claim the Grief Seed, its cold weight a stark contrast to the warmth fading from her cheeks. When she finally turned, the fierce protectiveness in her eyes had shattered into pure, aching remorse. "you..." Her voice broke, barely a whisper. "I am so, so sorry. I never meant for you to be part of this."
