Snow White

They somehow managed to get away. It was lucky they’d even escaped at all.

She asked herself if she’d underestimated them and answered to herself that she had not.

The enemy was simply too skilled. Since they’d encountered the Shufflins in the park, it was natural to assume they were being watched. Even for a magical girl, tailing Snow White from outside the range of Fal’s radar would be extremely difficult. With magic, it wasn’t impossible, but Snow White thought most likely they were being watched from high in the sky. The Shufflins in the amusement park had moved as if unified, like a single creature. Though the Shufflins as a whole were a single magical girl, they couldn’t share information. Someone had been observing them all to give instructions.

And the Shufflins were not their only enemy. That one girl had been none other than the one and only Dark Cutie.

She was the magical-girl villain who had appeared in the anime Cutie Healer Galaxy. Born from dark matter that drifted through the universe, she was the vanguard of the Space Chaos, which planned the destruction of the universe, and the protagonists Cutie Altair and Cutie Vega had waged a fierce battle against her. At the end, she’d disappeared while swearing revenge against the heroines, an anomaly for villains in the Cutie Healer series, where villains were usually destroyed, or reformed, or reformed then destroyed. Reception to this ending was said to have been mixed.

That was who had attacked them.

Dark Cutie probably had flexible joints—the sort of flexibility where she could reverse the index finger of her right hand all the way to touch the back of the same hand with her fingertip, all without using her left hand. She would tangle up her hands and hold them up to the light of the sun to make shadow puppets. Her scissors made from shadow had severed an iron pillar, and her wolf made from shadow had crunched into concrete.

The beasts were the problem. The weapon-type of shadows weren’t as bad. Since Snow White could hear the voice of Dark Cutie’s heart, Snow White could deal with any weapons she wielded, but the beasts created from shadow had no inner voice. They didn’t feel or think anything, attacking Snow White as automatically operated battle machines.

Dark Cutie was clearly superior to Snow White when it came to physical abilities and battle technique. Even though the shadow beast wasn’t as strong as her, Snow White couldn’t hear their thoughts. Dark Cutie had kept out of Snow White’s range, making use of her reach with repeated slices, while she left the main offensive role to the beast. If she was fighting like this, then she knew all about Snow White’s magic. Snow White blocked the shadow scissors, avoided the beast’s fangs, blocked a kick, and dodged the beast’s claws, never with the space to attack. Dark Cutie was fighting in a way that would steadily wear her down.

At this rate, eventually, she was going to lose. The unexpected backup was what changed things.
