Then I'll write you something, mystery!
Merry Christmas from Magical Girls!
Hello magical girls. My name is Serenity, and I'll be your ominescent host for today. I have randomly assigned you to several toy stores in Japan. (-)Step one: Find a toy that costs under $20. On three, start slow dancing with it. Umi's feelings about letting Fuu and Hikaru drag her into this were mixed. On one hand, she really wanted to do something good, especially after the whole situation with Cephiro... but on the other hand, slow dance with a toy?
This would've been so much easier if Fuu and Hikaru were with her, but they'd all been split up by whomever was running this event, leaving Umi in a Mitakihara toystore with a bunch of total strangers.
One... Two... Three!A waltz began playing. Umi picked up her teddy bear and looked around the store. Most of the people she'd arrived with had begun dancing with their toys, including a dark-haired girl who looked like she'd rather die than do something so unladylike.
Well, if she can do it, so will I.She began dancing with the bear is if it were her husband, ignoring all of the stares from shoppers.

Step two: After you buy your gift (and make sure it's wrapped) leave the store. On three, put your santa hat on, take out your bell, and sing. Of the crowd of magical girls who left Kanon Town's toy store, eleven of them began singing and bellringing in a somewhat organized fashion.
Minako Aino and Erika Kurumi, on the other hand...
"JINGLE BELLS! JINGLE BELLS! JINGLE ALL THE-"
"WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS, AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!"
"FIIIVVVEEE GOOOOLLLLLDDDDDEEEENNNN RIIIINNG-"
Time's up. Minako and Erika continued their overentusiastic duet as the other eleven began explaing to passerby what was going on.

Step three: I am giving you directions to the nearest children's hospital. When you see a red car, freeze for one minute. One person in your group has a timer. DO NOT FREEZE IF YOU ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF CROSSING THE ROAD. The Tomoeda group, joined by Tomoyo Daidouji and Li Syaoran, were making their way through town when the third step came up. Everyone began looking around the streets.
"Um, excuse me, but why is everyone looking in circles? And why are you holding a timer, Miss Meiou?" Tomoyo asked, wondering what was going on.
Setsuna looked up from the stopwatch "Part of our directions to spread holiday cheer include freezing for one minute if a red car shows up."
"I don't think anyone here owns a red car." Syaoran added "and even if they-"
"We could just freeze for one minute right now" Fuu interjected. "Serenity never said what to do if we didn't see one, and both Setsuna and Augri are wearing red..."
Tomoyo and Syaoran looked up at Setsuna, who quickly directed their glace to a dark-haired girl in the back who was wearing a red coat-Setsuna Higashi.
And then everyone froze.
(-)
Step four: Once at the hospital, go find a kid. Any kid. Give them the present that you bought earlier today. If they are alone, you may transform. So much of her life was spent in hospitals.
Due to her weak health, she'd basically lived in one since she was born.
And right after her discharge-for once and for all-her parents died. And when she ran through hell to save Madoka, it always started in a hospital.
So on her way to Kibouhana's hospital, Homura Akemi tries her best to be normal.
The others don't know about her life as a magical girl. They don't know that fate dealt her an unlucky hand in her circumstances.
She carries the memories of their goddess and savior, but no one else will ever remember Madoka Kaname.
(-)
The children's ward is surprisingly close to the front desk.
Homura finds herself looking for her old hospital room-B29.
It's near the end of the hallway, and a nurse lets her in.
"I just want to warn you, Miss Akemi, that the patient here... is recovering from a botched suicide. She may not be in the best mental state..."
Could this have been me? If Madoka hadn't..."Um... Merry Christmas? I'm part of..."
"Are you real?"
Homura finds herself cut off by the girl's sudden interjection.
"No one in their right mind would visit me. My family hates me, and my friends... so are you an angel?"
I could've been you in a past life... without Madoka."No. I'm normal."
She places the present on the table and leaves, while her mind begins to play with her life.
So mystery, what do you think?
