But then she couldn't keep it in anymore. Her Soul Gem appeared from her ring again, the black swirling and swirling until it finally completely started to take over the entire jewel, turning it black. And Kyouko gripped at her head, as if she suddenly was in massive pain, the same words her father had told her right when he snapped and killed their family pounding over and over in her head - nothing but a witch, nothing but, nothing - but before Kouji would be able to intervene with it, a bright light shone out.

When the light faded, the surroundings had changed. This was no longer the alley, but it was part of the new-born witch's dimension. The wall seemed to be completely black with a little red here and there in the background, a pattern reminiscent of the barriers Kyouko sometimes used, and black mist swirled all around. For a moment the space seemed completely empty..

... Before the witch emerged. Kouji might not even have associated this witch with Kyouko if the same bandana wasn't still stuck around the witch's arm, indicating they were the same person. The witch sat on a black horse, and said witch actually did still have somewhat of a human shape - wearing a long robe and carrying a weapon that looks like a staff of a spear. The main thing about it that didn't look human was the fact that the witch was missing a head - instead there was a large candle on the place where the head should have been.

It was Ophelia. The witch Kyouko had become after her Soul Gem became corrupted.
