Madoka Kaname, Homura Akemi and others in “Unfinished Business”

Madoka Kaname

[Looking at a picture of Walpurgisnacht on the wall.] That's Walpurgisnacht isn't it? Kyoko told me about it. She said you were teaming up. She also said it was so strong that one magical girl couldn't beat it by herself. Is this where you're getting ready? [Homura doesn't respond.] The city's in danger, isn't it?

Homura Akemi

This witch is different from the others. It's so powerful it doesn't need to hide in a labyrinth. And when it appears, thousands of people are going to die. Just like that. Since ordinary humans can't see it, they'll think the destruction was caused by an earthquake, tornado, or other disaster.

Madoka

: Okay, then it has to be destroyed no matter what. Now that Kyoko's dead, you're alone. You're the only magical girl left and you're going to need someone's help to beat it. What if I-

Homura

I can handle it by myself. Maybe Kyoko couldn't do it, but I can certainly defeat Walpurgisnacht on my own. To tell you the truth, I never really needed her help. I just agreed so she wouldn't feel bad.

Madoka

Is that true? I want to believe you, I do. I don't know why but...I guess I...I guess I don't want to think you'd lie to me. But I don't think you're being honest with me right now. And I don't think you're gonna be alright on your own...

Homura

How can I be honest with you? You wouldn't believe me anyway.

Madoka

Homura...

Homura

The thing is... I'm... You and me... We're not even from the same time! [Homura runs up to Madoka and hugs her. There is a long pause.] The truth is...I'm from the future. I've met you over and over and every time in every time I've had to watch you die. What do I have to do to save you? What do I have to do to change your fate? I kept doing this month over again searching for the answer.

Madoka

But you... [Madoka quivers, finally realizing what Homura is saying.]

Homura

[Homura hugs Madoka tighter. Her voice starts to break.] I'm sorry. I'm not making any sense. I'm scaring you, aren't I? I mean, you barely know me. I just started going to your school, so it's not like you really know me. But I know you, I know your soul...I know your life...[Homura starts crying] Everything's messed up. The more I redo this time, the further apart we get. My feelings, my words; nothing gets through to you. I'm out of options. I don't know what to do anymore.

Madoka

Homura...

Homura

I will save you. That's the one thing I wished for. That's how it started. And now, it's the only thing I have left to guide me. And it's okay if you don't understand anything I'm saying. But please, please let me protect you.
