Episode
Stacey: That's ridiculous! I've known Kyubey all my life, and he's never tricked me!

Courtney: That's because you were never human.

Stacey: Neither are you, Kyandoru-san!

Courtney: Listen, Anastasia Komusome. I was once human, but over a year ago, when I was 14.....


 * Flashback*


 * A green-haired Puella Magi with a purple battlesuit and a wand in her left hand is on the ground, breathing heavily and bleeding*

Courtney voiceover: My best friend, Haruka, was a Puella Magi. Once, she defeated a witch, but she was just about to become one herself.

Courtney: *crying* Haruka! Don't die, Haruka! Don't turn into a witch! HARUKAAAAAAA!

Haruka: *changes back to her human form, in a Seifuku* Don't worry.....Courtney......just let me become a witch......and one last thing?

Courtney: Yeah?

Haruka: *whispering so Kyubey, who is behind them, doesn't hear her* If you decide to become a Puella Magi, wish that Puella Magi would open their eyes to Kyubey's tricks, 'kay?

Courtney: *teary-eyed, nods and backs away as Haruka slowly dies* H-H-HARUKA!


 * Haruka's witch shows up*

Kyubey: There aren't Puella Magi around here anymore, eh?

Courtney: *turns to Kyubey* You know what?

Kyubey: ?

Courtney: *grabs Kyubey by the tail*

Kyubey: Hey, hey! Watch the tail!

Courtney: Make me into a magical girl!

Kyubey: Ah, okay. And what is your wish that I must grant?

Courtney: I want Puella Magi to realize the truth! (thinks: What I'm really wishing is what Haruka requested me to wish.)

Kyubey: What truth?

Courtney: Just the truth. And Incubator?

Kyubey: ?

Courtney: Don't even think about making other girls into Puella Magi. I'd rather fight alone.

Kyubey: Fine.


 * Courtney becomes a Puella Magi and fights Haruka's witch*

Kyubey: *watches as Courtney fights* Heh, I lied. In a year, Stacey Komusome, a Puelian, is coming to Earth, and Christine Hibi is becoming a Puella Magi, too.

Courtney: (off-screen) I heard that!


 * Flashback ends*

Stacey: So you knew I was going to come to Earth and Christine-chan was going to become a Puella Magi?

Courtney: Yeah.

Stacey: And you realize you fought your best friend's witch?

Courtney: Well, I thought I would be the only Puella Magi left, so someone had to fight her!

Stacey: Have you forgetten Madoka Kaname, Sayaka Miki, Homura Akemi, Mami Tomoe and Kyoko Sakura have been magical girls for 5 years now? And that Sayaka is our ally?

Courtney: Wow, Sayaka's our ally?

Stacey: She allied with us as an apology when she attacked me a month ago.

Courtney: How come I wasn't told?

Stacey: I have no idea.


 * Later that night*


 * Stacey, Christine, Courtney and Sayaka are fighting a witch named Chiyoko*

Christine: Wow, Sayaka! We both have swords!

Sayaka: Less talking, more fighting, Christine-san! *swings her sword at Chiyoko* Or Chiyoko's going to kill you!

Christine: *swings her sword, too*

Stacey: *jumps up high in the air and attacks* Eh? *realizes she's flying* AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! *lands back on the ground, frightened* I was.....flying......I'M TERRIFIED OF HEIIIIIIIGHTS!!!!


 * Chiyoko gets defeated by Courtney, and Courtney, Christine and Sayaka run to Stacey*

Christine: Stacey-san! We've fought a lot of witches for a month, and you're seriously scared of heights?

Courtney: I guess Puelians have their fears.

Sayaka: Yeah. Well, *starts to walk away* I better find Madoka.

Christine: You mean the strong magical girl Kaname Madoka-sama?!?!

Sayaka: *comes back* Yep. She's been in the air a lot, so she might be able to help Stacey with her little problem. *returns to normal, along with everyone else, and walks off*


 * The next day, at school*

Madoka: *walks in* Excuse me, I'm here to pick Komusome-san up.

Stacey: *looks at Madoka with sparkly eyes* (thinks: Madoka-sama!)

Teacher: Pick up Stacey? What for?

Madoka: Um.....a doctor's appointment.

Teacher: Oh, okay. Komusome-san, you can go.

Stacey: *runs out of the school with Madoka* Are you sure you can help overcome my fear?

Madoka: Why not? I've been a Puella Magi for 5 years.

Stacey: *eyes all big* That's a LOT!

Madoka: Stacey, you've been a Puella Magi for whole life.

Stacey: Oh.


 * Later, at a cliff*


 * Madoka and Stacey are standing at the edge of the cliff, in their Puella Magi forms*

Madoka: Stacey, just jump from this cliff.

Stacey: N-no! I'll fall!

Madoka: You're a Puelian! You should overcome your fear of being in mid-air!

Stacey: Oh, fine. *jumps off the cliff and floats* Wow. *looks down and panics* I'm flying! I'm flying!

Madoka: Calm down, Stacey! Or-


 * But it's too late. Stacey falls*

Madoka: *rolls her eyes* Guess I have to help her. *dives off the cliff, catches Stacey, and safely lands on the ground*

Stacey: THAT was scary. I mean, that I was flying!

Madoka: No, Stacey, what was scary was when you began to fall!


 * Later*


 * Stacey and Madoka are fighting a witch named Bianca*

Madoka: Go up in the air, Stacey, and strike it from above!

Stacey: *jumps in the air and kills Bianca* Hey, being in the air isn't so bad!

Madoka: I knew you'd understand.

Kyubey: *watching from afar* Well, Stacey-san, you've done it. You've overcome your fear of flying, and allied with Madoka.

Courtney: *grabs Kyubey and strangles him*

Kyubey: Hey, hey, hey! Stop it, Kyandoru-san!

Courtney: Stop it? You made me into this, and Madoka, too!

Kyubey: I wasn't talking about you, or Madoka!

Courtney: But it's still your fault we're no longer human!

End of episode!
