"Welcome to our little talk show podcast at the Weekly Weaver girls of the Magical Girl Squad!" Stated Felix Fine Fetcher.
Red 6 responded "Glad to be on your show Mr. Fetcher."
Fetcher asked "...So two main questions before we really get started with the interview. Why are some of you missing, and what's with the girl in a spider dress?" Mr. Spider fidgeted in her dress. Arachne was a master seamstress and for sure gave the dress a motif of webs and spider legs. Somehow part of their current patrol was doing an interview...
Red 6 said "Yes I Red 6 and my friends Apple 2 and Athena are here today with our newest little member Spider."
Fetcher asked "And where are the other 3 magical girls of squad 626?"
Apple 2 responded with a "Well Boxer isn't much for these sorts of things so she's patrolling and probably taking down some small time criminals with her strength, Bandage tends to worry about Boxer and joined her to heal any cuts and injuries Boxer gets, and Fish decided to go so Boxer doesn't just run around town assaulting criminals all day."
Fetcher smiled and asked "And since this is a podcast and not everyone can really watch. The newest Magical Girl here has a kind of boyish style haircut with an unnaturally blue color, she is also wearing a black magical girl dress... that kind of looks like it's sewn with webs.
Athena replied "Well since we're calling her Spider and we had the once hero Arachne sew it. Well she just kind of got inspired a little."
Fetcher scoffed and said "And now you'll want to tell me she got training from that illegal menace to society Mr. Spider!"
Red 6 said "...Her powers are similar, but as far as we know she's completely unrelated to Mr. Spider. Unless you want him to be a talking point can we get back on topic?"
Fetcher coughed and replied "Certainly, so then you're group has been going at this for two years correct? Feels more like 6 or 8 considering how much confidence you all have."
Red 6 said "When you're on camera so often and are surrounded by heroes who constantly save countries, planets, and solar systems a small little talk show seems like brushing your teeth. Also yes we've only been really doing this whole magical girl squad thing for just two years."
Fetcher asked "Yes, you've all seen more action and grown than any other squad thanks to being in such close proximity to the Protectors. Can you tell us one of your favorite stories of your magical girl antics?"
Apple 2 grinned and said "Well there was that time with the pur-" Red 6 gave a deathglare to which Apple continued "pure innocent times we were just able to have fun and play. Despite the way it seems to always be doomsday in New York we have had several opportunities to just have fun like a normal group of girls."
Athena nodded and said "Although Boxer does tend to make things... more interesting..."
Fetcher looked over to Spider and asked "And how about we give a little spotlight to the newest of you girls. Magical Girl Spider, you'll probably be with them for a little while so why not tell everyone a little bit about yourself?" Spider wasn't sure what to say exactly. While yes she planned on staying with the Magical girls till she returned to normal she hoped that would be only a few days at most. Not months or years.
She took a breathe and then said nervously "Well I'm Magical Girl Spider... I've got pretty good strength, pretty quick and nimble, stick to things when I want to, and I can emit web a little... Not well enough to do things Mr. Spider-"
Fetcher said "Why look up to someone as dangerous as Mr. Spider?"
Red 6 said "To be fair when I worked with him once I learned a lot, and was able to adapt my ribbons into his swinging motions. Considering their abilities seem to be mostly the same comparing at least the techniques-"
Fetcher said "Adapting techniques of criminals is no goo-"
and that's as far as the podcast got. Felix Fine Fetcher got too angry and riled up, the magical girls bailed, and now they were in their room in the Protectors room... Doctor Doctor and Oracle both listening to the podcast.
Oracle said "...May have been a mistake bringing Spider to that with Felix's... hatred of Mr. Spider..." The semi-omniscient super stated.
Doctor Doctor added "Would you have rather been out with Boxer punching the living daylights out of standard street thugs? Some actual heroes needed to intervene before she went a little too far."
Boxer said "Hey, I was just cleaning up the streets!"
Doctor Doctor told her "Sure, after dipping your mop in blood. I know that fighting aliens and other supers you can't hold back, but standard thugs can't withstand your full force. As a member of the Magical Girls Squad you need to be able to go on patrols and make sure common criminals are put away and not massacred... Alright magical girls come with me to the cafeteria to grab our supper!" As everyone was leaving Oracle grabbed Spiders hand and kept her inside.
Oracle said "Oh how the mighty fall."
Spider could only add "You do know you can't tell anyone about this right? Especially not Captain Spectacle or Red 6?"
"Sure sure, as long as everyone thinks your some random girl trying to get a grip on her powers... Then I'm your Squad's Mother, and since you probably have no where else to go you'll be living here with Red 6 being like your older sister. This sounds like it's going to be so much fun till Doctor can make a cure for your little predicament... or until clownfish gets our of prison and you can convince her to change you back."
"Oracle this is serious... You are the only super that knows what my actual civilian life is like. I need to change back ASAP."
"and Doctor knows that. Which is why when he has time to spare he's looking into making a medicine to change you back. However for the present it'll be fun to watch you squirm in this little family dynamic wouldn't you say?"
Spider only sat in silence till the other girls came back with supper. It was a nice meal that the protector's chiefs could make. Then most of the magical girls went back to their homes leaving Doctor Doctor, Oracle, Red 6, and Spider alone.
Doctor Doctor yawned and stretched and said "Well I need to get my rest... or have an excuse not to take those anti-sleep pills... Good night Magical Girls."
Oracle added "I think I'll go as well. Don't get too crazy girls." And with the two adults leaving Spider and Red 6 were all alone in the Magical Girl suite in the Protector's building.
