Everyone was stunned. Sayaka had attacked them and asked them to stay away from her.

Kirari sat on the ground, thinking deeply. 'Sayaka, I will definitely bring you back to me, I know you're grieving but I promised that I would be there with you throughout the process, and I will fulfil my promise.'

"The trauma from her past encounter with Tanukis and Kaito's death must have caused this," Sachiko said shakily. "Though I must say, I expected her to break down crying and come with us."

"She probably sees us as a threat. We told her to come back, maybe she thought we were going to punish her, though there really isn't anything to punish her for," Ririka suggested. "She told us to stay away, so to her, if she returns to us, she'll endure some undesirable things."

"I would never hurt her," the Queen stated coldly. "I am going to bring her back. The rest of you can return first."

With that, the Queen disappeared in a swirl of blue the colour of her eyes and violet the colour of her wife's hair and eyes.

*****

Sayaka breathed heavily as she flew above the cities.

They were trying to take her back......if she went back, she knew that they would......no. She won't go through that again. Even Kirari is with them......perhaps she was ashamed of her and was the one who ordered Sachiko to take her back. Sayaka's eyes filled with tears as she felt a feeling drop to the bottom of her stomach. Even Kirari wants to kill her......

She stopped at a building, resting her scythe on the rook gently.

With a heavy heart, she left her wedding ring and lily necklace there.

'I'm sorry, Kirari, but you should find someone else. Just don't come after me, please, I don't want to die again,' Sayaka thought, shaking with sobs as she wrote those words down on a note after playing them in her head.

She grabbed her scythe.

'She's near, I'll go back to the Quantum Realm and lock the entrance to it,' Sayaka thought as she disappeared in a swirl of violet butterflies.

Kirari arrived at a rooftop. 'Sayaka was here......'

Suddenly, something gleaming in the moonlight caught the Queen's eye.

Shaking, she picked up her wife's wedding ring and lily necklace, reading the note.

Her eyes glowed as she gazed down at the ring on her own finger. It had a violet-coloured diamond on it.

'You thought I would actually hurt you? After all I've done to get you back......until now I can't seem to assure you that you are enough.

And now you want me to find someone else. Why, why can't you just understand that it has to be you?

No one can be my wife other than you, I can't and I won't love anyone other than you.

You didn't give up on me when I had been overwhelmed with the mixed feelings of happiness and grief when my grandmother died, and I'm not going to let you go either.

Never.

Wait for me, my lily, I'll get you back, and I'll help you realise just how precious you are to me, how much I love you, and how perfect you are in my eyes.'
