Summary
After getting Nozomi to safety, Kurumi fights Abigail, who summons a pair of Disas to aid her. Meanwhile, Asuka defeats Stroghil and Pobur while her fairy, Sachuu, captures an enemy fairy reporting to their leader, Queen. Kurumi is soon supported by Iizuka's M Squad, who suppresses Abigail until Asuka arrives. However, the Queen appears and escapes with Abigail. After Kurumi uses her magic to remove the past week of Nozomi's memories to spare her the trauma of her ordeal, Asuka agrees to join M Squad. With the higher-ups deciding that Nozomi would be safer in the company of magical girls than with a new identity, Asuka is relieved to find Nozomi's lost memories haven't affected their friendship.
