It's a pretty tense moment, right?

Because it's one thing to just run out there into danger. It's scary, sure, but it feels like you at least have control over it. You're willingly choosing to head into it.

But this is different. This is just the two of them - just two kids - waiting in an alleyway, hoping for something dangerous to not find them, to not spot them and just move past. It makes seconds stretch out into agonizing minutes.

All the way until the lights slowly pass them. They don't seem to notice Madoka - as invisible as she was - headed in here, so she quickly fires at one of them again-- this time managing to scatter the light.

But that leaves the second light to fly right at them, and Madoka definitely needs time to grab another arrow again. Can the borderline hold it?!
