...My Barrier?
...What the hell is going on?
1000/1000 Grief

---

Suddenly I was aware of my surroundings. Like I just woke up from a deep, deep, sleep from which I really don't want to go back to. Wait. This isn't my room. Sure the decor is amazing, but the walls are the opposite color from my room, being black wood instead of white whatever, and there's no plushies on my bed.

I went to stand up and walk when I heard the jingling of chains. I looked down, and was shocked. My arms where chained to my torso, which was covered in chains and padlocks, I was wearing a wonderfully gothic dress, and what little of my body I could see was made of liquid shadow. And I could see what looked like fairy wings made of stained glass behind me. What happened to me? Where the hell am I?

....My Barrier. I'm in my Barrier. I don't know why but that thought just feels right. Barrier? That means...I'm a PMMM witch. I need to find. Mirror and I need to find it now! I rushed out of the room I woke up in, and ignored the humming bird like familars-Fantasys-that fluttered around me. I need to find a mirror and figure out what I can do. Soon.

The first thing that hits me as I wake up is light. Blindingly bright.

...Oh. My eyes are closed. I open my eyes.

Light. Blindingly bright, without blinding me.

I push to my feet, then blink as I instead go into a tailspin.

Hwah?!

I stick out my arms to try to stop myself and sigh in relief as I come to a stop.

...

Oh. I wasn't lying on anything. I was lying on nothing.

Also, I appear to be able to touch nothing.

Okay. Don't flip out, don't question it, just bring your knees to your chest and WHAT THE FUCK IS WITH MY KNEES

WHAT THE FUCK IS WITH MY BODY?!

I'm....glowing. Incredibly brightly.

I'm not glowing a single color, either. I'm...

Shimmering... pretty... Ack! Stop that!

I'm shimmering between blue, red, white, orange, purple, yellow, and...green?

Man this feels weird.

Also, I'm wearing a blue robe with pictures of stars. Not imaginary stars. Actual stars. Look! There's Alpha Centauri A, and it's little siblings, B and C!

Wait, how can I identify Alpha Centauri at a glance?!

While I'm mildly flipping out, a living star happens to zoom past me.

Aww, it's so cute! I pull it into my arms. As long as it's not as much of a mess to take care of as normal things.

I pick a direction and start 'hopping' in it, pushing off the void until I reach a observatory. I glance at Stella and reluctantly place them back into the space area before stepping down into the observatory.

Wait. Is that Adele?

"Um...Hello?"

"Hello, it's me, I was wondering if after all these years you'd like to meet." She sings. I blink and tune her out as she continues, searching for the exit to this madhouse. No. Not madhouse... Barrier? Why does that sound vaguely familiar?

Sigh, I wonder which God I pissed off...this time.

When I woke up, I find myself inside this....glass cage. Seems like a spherical hollow space inside some sort of glass structure and said glass structure is inside a room completely made of mirrors. As if being trapped like some sort of fish inside an aquarium is not bad enough, I am also turned into...a thing, something alien.

From what I gather, I looked...vague as best. Like trying to see someone through a blurry, foggy mirror, only it's my real appearance. It's weird and unsettling. I don't know whether the fact that I looked like a blurry reflection of a girl with white hair and dress is uncanny or good, but it's still something. At least I am not turned into, I don't know, an aircraft carrier? My mind must be reeling if I thought up something that weird.

I sighed for the umpteenth time as I try to find the best way to lay down and sleep. Despite the decidedly strange situation, I just want to laze around. Then again, that's my basic reaction to dealing with something troublesome. If only I am not reminded by the fact that I don't have reflection each time I lay down...

No good..I have to do something..but what? I am trapped here, with no way out...hmmm..ah?

Just as I think a way out, I saw something...strange..again. Inside, yes inside, the mirror around me, dozens of giant eyes staring at me...and came out from the mirror to floating around before returned inside and disappear.

I feel like I should react more, but the only thing I feel is a mild surprise...and familiarity? I know them, I know them very well despite I am sure never saw anything like them. Oculus, the security camera of my barrier, one of my...familiar. Huh. Okay? Hmm the more I think about it..the more information I think I know and can theorize..and the more disturbing it is.

Despite the situation become weirder and only makes me want to curl up, this is just too interesting~ I have to get out and reach for the truth! (ha!)

It's clear I am something magical, and those familiars like Oculus and others that I haven't met yet is part of me. Then! If they can do something, that means I could do it as well. My logic is flawless!...Or at least I can do something to get out of here since this is my own world and I have magic or something.

Like what my father taught me, I try to find a sitting position I am comfortable with and close my...vision? then concentrate. This probably not what Papa thought I would use it for, but it's appropriate. Calming myself, I try to find a way to do magic. I know I can do it, I simply don't know how yet.

Hmm, the only thing I got is the feeling of depression and grief...but something about them lure me in. I try to concentrate on it, and try to think of a way me to go outside before I feel myself...plopped for a lack of better description. Like being compressed and popped again like a balloon.

When I open my eyes, I found myself...in a luxurious cafe. I know this is still my world..no.. barrier through my feeling and the fact that there are a lot of mirrors around, a theme perhaps. The fact that vague-human like familiar acting like servants or waitresses around me is also a dead giveaway. Seems like I transported to another part of my Barrier? And the one near my..entrance? What a weird place, but apparently I can go outside from here which is good. Perhaps. Maybe.

At least now I am human again. Well, looking like human and not weird reflection running around. It felt weird, like having entire body crushed. I probably want to go back to my other form soon. For now however, I can deal with it. Now to find an answer.

I sipped a tea served by one of the servant, Morgana, they are Morgana; and looked toward the shimmering blue door on the wall nearby. A way outside huh, this makes my worn heart beating in excitement. Wonder if I will instantly disappear the moment I step outside. Oh well, like Mama said, Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Finishing my tea, I immediately stands up and walk through the door. Toward the unknown destination.

Click to shrink...

I awaken as I usually do on my days off acting like a body that died and just kept going through the motions of life, the sight of black stone and a spacious room far larger than my office cubicle of a room barely registering in my mind as I transitioned to a state of something resembling a functioning being.

My first action upon finishing my transition to wakefulness and taking in my surroundings was not panic anyone who tells you otherwise is a lying liar who lies and should not be trusted to tell the truth.

My not panic lasted surprisingly shortly as I felt more at peace than I had ever before as if the very atmosphere here was made to calm all and sundry.

Now that is was calm I noticed a slight itch along my back reaching with my totally normal smoky arms to probe my back they instead run into feather-like obstructions, wrapping a hand around the obstruction I pull the object only to feel pain as both the obstruction and whatever it was attached to was yanked into my sight.

Well this is just lovely I have wings, what else besides the smoke-like body are you going to throw at me world? No i don't want to know because I've already made a guess I'm a frigging PMMM Witch one I created for fun at that and all that implies aside from the seeming sanity I've got going for me, right I just want to get out of here and explore to get my mind off this obvious cluster of a problem.

...did I come with instruction manuals because I sure to hell hope I can do something about these wings they itch and are kinda weird looking at present obviously not conducive to looking normal, no sooner do I think this do I feel a twisting in my stomach and excruciating pain in my back as my wings rescind into my back.

"That was wholly unpleasant and I wish to complain to whoever designed this", I mutter to myself while patting my myself down to determine abnormalities. No abnormalities were found beside my obvious gender change not that I can call that abnormal.

Right, it's time to blow this popsicle stand I'm feeling restless and the only cure is wandering. With a rushed pace I set out to explore the great unknown outside my barrier.

I awoke to the sound of grinding gears, of ticking clocks and mechanisms aplenty. This was unusual. I usually awoke to the sound of chirping birds and a gently blowing breeze.

My eyes flickered open and my face went slack... what was this place? I was in a tiny room of polished stone filled to the brim with pipes, gears and hydraulics... was that a water wheel? What seemed to be Hieroglyphics dotted the walls, carefully chipped in as decals, and then i noticed that the room was not so much as tiny as i was ginormous.

How had i gotten so big, i tried to stand but found it impossible. What was this? I turned my attention from my surroundings to my self.

What.

No seriously what?

I seem to have become macabre lovechild of a sphinx and a rubik cube, my body a mass of gleaming crystal and gold forged into shapes the likes of which you'd see in old ruins.

This was... surreal to say the least, aas this because of the barrier? ...Barrier? Where had that come from, the only thing i could think of relating to this kind of barrier was Madoka and that was inconceivable... and yet this was real, or atleast i think it is.

How had this happened? Truly a riddle for the ages.

When I go through the velvety blue door, I found myself in some sort of..manor? Though from the looks of it seem abandoned.

I heard a sounds door clicked close and looked back. The door is gone and now replaced with some sort of distortion in the air, I could see a faint trace of some sort glyph. Hmm, I guess this is the entrance to my Barrier huh? Leaving it open like this is probably a bad idea, I wonder...

With a slight mental pull, I could hear a sound akin to glass breaking in my mind before the entrance and the barrier beyond it gone completely. I fill myself really full after that, like after eating a lot kind of full. But, I guess that confirms it. I could break my Barrier down and absorb them back to myself since it's part of me, maybe.

I don't really know since how I know these informations is just instinct and it feels sketchy.

Anyway, what should I do now? Exploration is a give since as much as I want to just curl inside my barrier, having information about the surrounding is better for my own safety. Now where to go-

...
...

Just as I glance around I found another distortion in the air not unlike mine, right next to where mine was. I wonder if Fate is trying telling me something?

It's definitely the same thing as mine, some sort of entrance to a Barrier. Whatever Barrier is, but this one is not mine...perhaps someone is the same situation as me? Maybe they could tell me what's happening, I should come in and ask them! Yosh, Tsuki you are a smart girl!

Setting aside why I call myself Tsuki nor the slight chill (definitely from the cold air of the manor and my slight dress and not fear) I felt, I think how I should do this. The polite and usual way would be knocking or ringing a bell, which seem...hard to do. I also need to consider to arm myself before go in. While I don't understand the situation fully, going empty-handed inside some kind of eldritch plane that's not mine is stupid even for me. Hmmm.

I know! I'll just follow my instinct and go in that way! Nothing will go wrong and I definitely not making this decision because thinking is too tiresome or hurried to go away from this scary manor.

Following my instinct, I reach inside myself and pull the same thing as before but in a different.

I slightly crouching and raise my right arm as I could feel power enveloped it. Within a moment, glass seems to appear from nowhere and twisting around my arm before forming a drill made of mirror that completely covers my right arms. I...I don't know that would happen, but okay, I'll follow!

I grinned before sprinted toward the entrance and bring the now rapidly spinning drill toward it.

"MIRROR! DRILL! BREEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAKKK!" I shouted will all my might as I enter the barrier.

As I moved, a small cloud of Fantasy's surronding me. I couldn't find a mirror. Then I felt my stomach hurl as what looked like a young girl ripped open a hole in my barrier. I identify her as a fellow witch immetiadly, and my shadow starts to churn. "Who are you? What is going on?" I asked, flaring my wings as I ignore how wrong my voice sounded.

Still, she asking something so I shall answer. I looked up to her and mumbled "Lunaria Cell, but you can call me Tsuki! Tsuki was planned to asking the same thing actually..." I finished rather quietly.

Step after step I take in this environment how sad it is that I already somehow know everything about my barrier it makes this trip so much more of a bore, well whatever I'm already at the exit of this place I'm sure that this is a great place but I've got things to see and places to wander so without an ounce of hesitation I step out of my barrier.

The place I am deposited in seems to be some abandoned manor of some sort. With the amount of dust here I'd likely be hacking up a storm seems I've lucked out and good lord that's a lot of barriers that's definitely going to be a meguca signal and I want nothing to do with that turning I face the entrance of my barrier and place my hand on it, I'll try treating it like I did to somehow turn human namely I kinda wish really hard at it to go away for a few moments I believe it does nothing and prepare to try something else when I start to feel the barrier crack and break under my touch until finally, it shatters completely the grief holding it together dispersing reluctantly as if it could have gone somewhere else were there a need for it to do so.

"Well with this over with I can leave here without worries of someone finding my barrier best be off before some meguca decides to investigate my first order of business is definitely going to be finding a mirror or something out there I need ta know what I look like and I don't want to spend any moment longer here to find a mirror in here", I mutter a rough plan to myself while I head towards a window.

"Ehehe..Maybe Lili do it a bit too hard?" I said before conjuring another mirror, a normal shaped one this time and face it to her "But! Lili is cute! And looks somewhat like Chou Chou, but more importantly cute!"

"By the way, what Lili want to do now? Lili suddenly woke up here like Tsuki right?" I said peeking from behind the mirror.

My journey to find a window to leave from was rather uneventful even by my standards so obviously, I would have to have something annoy me the something, in this case, being the fact that the window was incredibly rusted and I would have to brute force it open and most likely make noise doing so.

"Tch, nothing for it I guess", I sigh before grasping the ledge and putting a portion of my strength into forcing the window open with a horrid screeching sound the window is opened and wasting no time I jump out and start a jog away from the manor.

Click to shrink...

For one reason or another, it doesn't feel like waking up. Rather, it's like... suddenly gaining awareness of the world around me, one that is distinctly not my room. Instead, it's what looks like two things at once: a ship's bridge that looks as if an ice queen made it while letting it go, and an endless stretch of ocean, snow lightly falling around me. While I'm seated on a frozen imitation of a captain's chair, I'm also floating lazily on the water just below me.

I see two reflections, one on the window and one on the water. The former shows me an icy girl, one who looks like some sort of CPU from Gamindustri, complete with floating wings, while the latter reveals a bow of a monstrous ship, one with eyes and teeth, and apparently made of ice with orange markings. Neither looks like me! What's going on?

Only in fiction do I become someone else! Who am I? What am I, some kind of shipgirl, or rather, Abyssal? A Fleet of Fog ship, because of those markings on 'my' hull?

Information springs to mind. I am Soteria, the iceberg carrier Witch of safety, whose nature is adaptability. This is my inner world, a Barrier between me and the dangers outside-

A witch? That read a lot like those... witch cards from Puella Magi Madoka Magica? Oh... oh god, I've become a... a....

I am very familiar with the witchbomb, and I've roleplayed as a meguca before, but this... this is another level altogether. I didn't make a contract with Mister Utilitarian Bunnycat, let alone drown in grief afterwards. I'm not a girl, so I shouldn't be eligible for that in the first place. Actually, that's all fictional, so I shouldn't be this way at all!

I... I need time to process this...

"In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found, Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves on the ground~", I sing to myself to relieve boredom while I jog through the forest that surrounded the manor in the hopes of finding civilization.

And there is someone! But they're running away. "HI! DO YOU KNOW WHATS GOING ON? BECAUSE WE DON'T." I yelled, hoping they can hear me.

Ah, I must be hearing things because that sounded like it came from the manor, wait it came from the manor full of other witches. A voice came from the manor, scheiße! this could be one of three things, some kids deciding to be brave and exploring the abandoned and obviously haunted manor, or it could be meguca who haven't cottoned on to the fact I am just as much a witch as the others in the manor or the final option it could be more like me probably not very likely but hey it's the option I prefer, well it's not like I'll lose anything by responding since I'm still jogging away from witch manor so here goes.

"NO, I'M LIKELY JUST AS CONFUSED ABOUT RECENT EVENTS AS YOU MIGHT BE! YOU SHOULD BE CAREFUL WHOEVER YOU ARE IT'S NOT SAFE TO BE AROUND OLD MANORS LIKE THIS!", there I responded hopefully they heard and realize that being so close to this place could be dangerous.
