Personally I've gotten into the bad habit of not proofreading whatever I type before I submit it wherever, whether it be a post on forums or in a chatroom. The omake I submitted is a good example of what I'm talking about.

I...! Generally don't proofread, because I usually don't makes mistakes.
Which means when I do make mistakes I don't catch them 'till much later and...
I have a little moment.
Of course, the fact that I'm aware of this means that I can put in an effort to fix it.
Self improvement FTW!
Roughly three hours after you had split from Truth, Rei finds you combing over what few magical 'tomes' the base had. When you fail to respond to their appearance, Rei plucks the book you're reading right out of your hands.
"Wha- Rei! I was reading that!" Goddess Gold raises a brow at your reaction, before turning the book around to take a peek at it's pages. What she finds doesn't cause the brow to lower at all.
"Control Spells? What need would you have for something like this?"
You hop slightly from your seated position to snatch the book back from your 'owner'. "I saw something during the fight at the graveyard that I felt was really important... so I came here to see if it was what I think it was. What are you doing here?"
You flip through the pages, to find your lost place as Rei walks around your small pile of book, in order to take a seat herself. "Ran into Ada. She mentioned how you had something to ask me, and that you'd probably be here until lights out. So I came to see what you were so focused on that you had barely even said hi to her. She was annoyed by that you know."
You blushed at that. You had a vague recollection of running into Ada on your way over to the little hole that the 'magic library' had been squirreled away. The problem was you had completely forgotten you had asked her to send Rei your way if she saw her. "Umm... Sorry. I forgot I had asked her to send you my way..."
Rei waves you down, "Don't worry. We've all made mistakes like this. Anyway: what did you want to ask me?"
You look down at the book in your hands, your place long since gone during the conversation. "I..." How to ask? It felt rude to simply come out and state the question, but you couldn't think of any way to politely word it. Ni was Rei's sister, so such a question...
You bite the bullet. "I saw something during my fight with Candy Heart-" You nearly choke on the name. The young girl had sacrificed her life to save you... And you repaid that by blowing her chest all over the ground. "There... there was a symbol on her chest. After I burned away part of her armor. I... wanted to ask you... do you know what it is I saw?" You keep your gaze turned down. Partly so you don't have to face Rei. But also partly so she doesn't see the grief of Candy Heart's death through your eyes and the pain it was causing you.
A small bit a pride that you held on to.
"I think so." Rei's voice is soft, like she was thinking of something painful. "It shows up on everyone she resurrects." You blink and look up at her, your grief momentarily forgotten. Rei has her fingers crossed, hands held up to her face. Her gaze is distant, glaring down towards the floor of the storage space. "We never could find out what it was supposed to be, but we were able to confirm it always showed up in the hardest to hit place on a fighter. So we know it's supposed to be important... But Ni never liked the idea of resurrecting people to be expendable slaves, so we didn't do much investigation of that particular ability. Why she's resurrecting more people now I have no idea."
She noticeably refrains from suggesting that she might not have understood her sister as much as she had thought.
Instead Rei shakes her head and stands, "That's besides the point. We should get to bed soon. And you should relax tomorrow." Just as she's about to leave though, your voice stops her.
Goddess Gold looks over her shoulder and looks at you questioningly.
"I don't have time to slow down. Time to relax..." You move to put the book on brainwashing away. "Every time I leave the base, I run into something that's so far out of my league, only dumb luck lets me survive... and then there's the fact each time someone I cared about died. First my sister. Then Jessica and Richard. And now..." You fail to finish your sentence. Rei simply stands in the exit, watching you as you continue to put books away. "If I don't get stronger... who dies next? Two times I've left the base, and on both missions I run into your sisters. Ichi blew away the other base, and now Ni... I never even got to visit my sister's grave!" You scream the last. Tears flow from your eyes, and the grief you were carefully ignoring pours out.
"Sega's grave was in the portion that White Knight's last attack wiped out... Just before we landed, she offered to let me go visit it. I chose to focus on the mission first. Sure, in hindsight that was a good thing but..." Rei turns away from you, allowing your privacy as you sob silently. Your one chance to visit your sister's grave was turned down, and because of that you'd never be able to go. Never be able to pay your respects to the girl that had taken care of you when you mother had broken from your father's death. The sister that you had loved more than anything else in the world.
The image of her remains is burned into your eyes to the point you see them whenever you try to blink away the tears.
Shifting of cloth, and Rei picks you up. "Come on. I'll carry you back, just rest."
She says nothing as you bury your face into her shirt and cry.
-/LINE BREAK IDENTIFIED\-
A wall of red energy. Unstoppable power meeting immovable object.
It bounces.
The wall of air knocks the helicopter about like a leaf in the storm. Blue Sky is torn from it, metal rending as her grip tears through the framing, and she is tossed free.
You watch as she falls away, hand outstretched in a futile attempt to save herself...
A sliver of light crosses her torso, and she is sliced in half. But before she can scream, a torrent of light washes her away.
You pour more into the red wall holding back the End. Everything you have, and then some, but inexorably it inches closer, micrometer by micrometer. And though it only lasts for a split second, it feels as if eternity passes you by.
And as the light fades, a wasteland greets you.
"Nep-?" You feel despair rise in the pit of your stomach. The cute girl you had claimed as yours was nowhere to be seen. The soldiers meant to guard her more than likely dead and gone, along with the Knight that you had entrusted with her safety. "Land! Now!"
The pilot looks at you like your crazy, but you silence him with a glare that had given Dark Generals heart attacks. Properly cowed the useless mongrel quickly brings the machine around to rest where the cemetery once stood, and you leap off. Power to your legs, you sprint across the ground faster than you could ever remember running. And there, in the center...
Anastasia lies on the ground in two separate locations. Her blood leaks slowly, dyeing the black glass she rests on red. A small orb of light shines weakly halfway between the two halves of her body, and as you watch bits and pieces of her break off into light to be drawn in by the tiny little orb.
"Nepgear!" You run to her side, gathering what's left of her torso into your arms. "Nep...?" Your heart hurts. Your limbs are heavy, and your throat sore from constricting. "Nep, can you hear me?" Her eyes are dull and lifeless: the vibrancy that marked her existence as unique was faded to nothing. Her hair is almost black from the dirt and ash.
"Anastasia, come on. Say something." You refuse. You refuse to lose something else precious so soon after having found it. Not after losing everything else for this useless title of 'Hero' that your sisters wasted their existences on. "Please Anastasia. Don't leave me!" You can feel her weight slipping away, already her lower body is gone, taken away by the little light that was drawing her in.
Her arms are gone as well.
"You can't leave me! Please! I... I've got nothing. Everything I own amounts to nothing compared to you! Please!" You beg. You beg her not to go, not to leave you again with useless trinkets to keep you company, and a cold bed to greet you at night. Empty praises from the merely human soldiers, or the weak girls around you.
Not to leave you alone with the knowledge that you would have to kill your sisters.
"Please..." The last of her body breaks away from you, and you limply reach after it, your soul breaking to pieces as you watch. You stare as the light darkens even more, before the orb slowly changes shape.
It elongates and bends, hard angles, and a cruel edge forming from the remains of a kind heart.
The dark purple, almost black, blade of the sword hurts to look at. Red lines of fresh blood leak slowly to pool onto the ground. And from where you kneel in the dirt you can feel it's hunger.
Rei's eyes snap open and she rockets up into a sitting position with a gasp. The quiet darkness held at bay by Anastasia's soft glow. As Rei reached over to run a hand through Anastasia's hair to make sure she was still there, still breathing, the senior magical girl took a shaky breath.
As quietly as she could, Rei drew the covers off herself, and climbed from the massive king sized bed. Once free, she slowly made her way across the tent by Anastasia's light to where a small table was set up alongside a portable refrigerator and a box. At the table sat James, reading a book and using the light that suffused the tent.
"Can't sleep?" Rei doesn't respond, instead popping open the mall portable fridge and pulling out a can of soda. "Me neither." She pulls out a folding chair, and takes a seat across from the older man. "It's strange you know... how she glows when she's asleep. Richard and Michael spent the whole night debating weather or not we should tell her after we found out. Finally decided to keep it to our selves: a little Team GEAR secret."
Rei hums in reply... "I used to be afraid of the dark." Her voice is almost lost to the quiet, "When it got really bad, San would sneak into my room to keep me company. After the three of us joined the war effort, Ni and Ichi couldn't sleep without nightlights themselves... so the four of us wound up sharing a bed more often then not. San played peace keeper between us when we fought, and took care of us like mom used to... I was a failure of a big sister."
"Hoping that taking Nepgear under your wing like you have might give you a second chance?"
"I'm not that lucky." She carefully ignores the feeling of hunger coming from deep within her, where the Fragment normally rested.
-/LINE BREAK IDENTIFIED\-
Your return to the waking world is slow. The tent is empty, and neither Team GEAR nor Rei are to be found.
The few memories you have of your dreams make you wish you could go back to sleep, but also leave a deep desire to never sleep again.
In the end you claw your way out of bed and get ready for the day.
-/LINE BREAK IDENTIFIED\-
Right outside of the tent, you find James in full kit doing an exercise routine. One he pauses as you come outside and glare at him.
"Why the heck didn't anyone wake me up? It's nearly nine o'clock!" Ever since joining the Counter Force, you had never slept later than seven. So waking up at nine was a shock when you noticed it.
"We all saw what a mess you were when we went down for the night. So at Rei's suggestion we decided to let you sleep in today. So if you're angry, be angry at her. Besides, you're feeling better, aren't you?"
You glare at him, refraining from answering his question because you both already knew.
You split from James quickly after that, and gaze around your immediate area.

That sword kind of reminds me of Soul Edge and if it's anything like it then we need to get it away from Rei as quickly as possible.
So now Rei has Gehaburn stuck in her soul or... wherever MG weapons are stored. The goddess slaying sword.
She and her sisters are known as the goddess four.
Is it perhaps Magical Girl Judgement Core? Maybe, maybe not~

I did notice that Nep's core became it, but what I'm questioning is how they can both exist at the same time... (Nep's ability and Rei's weapon, that is)
Not to mention how Rei got it from a dream
Unless it's an ability that can transfer the weapon?
