1="My, have you heard? Who’d you hear it from? The Breakup Staircase, and the rumor thereof! “Ugh! I hate you!

2="My, have you heard? Who’d you hear it from? The Breakup Locks, and the rumor thereof! Bridges, clifftops, viewing decks– they’re just about everywhere! Those locks of love that swear an eternal bond! But these things, oh no, they’re totally the reverse! Breakup padlocks that break bonds when unlocked! They swarm around like bugs, and if they catch you, that’s the end. You’ll be locked up in the Breakup Stairs! It’s a rumor that ALL the kids in Kamihama City are talking about. Talk about AWFUL!"

Summary
The Rumor of the Breakup Stairs, called Uwasa of the Friendship Ending Staircase in the NA version of the game, is the first Rumor appearing in the 2017 mobile game Puella Magi Madoka Magica Side Story: Magia Record.

The Rumor of Ending Friendship says that if you end a friendship and then try to reconcile, a monster will appear and get you. This Rumor was the reason why Rena didn't apologize to Kaede after they ended their frienship, because she didn't want Kaede to be taken away from the monster. Iroha and Kaede tried to explain her that the monster didn't exist, but the magical girl didn't believe them. That is why Kaede decided to apologize for Rena; and just then a few "familiars" showed themselves and took Kaede away. Rena was horrified for what happened and ran away, looking for a way to save Kaede.

Iroha was able to find Momoko and, over time, they met Rena, whom had found a plan to save her friend. Rena apologized for everything bad she did to Kaede. That caused the appearence of the Rumor's familiars and Kaede, whom was brainwashed by the Rumor. And just then, Yachiyo showed herself and knocked down Kaede when Momoko and Iroha tried to save Rena before the familiars took her to the Rumor. However, it was too late, and Rena was brainwashed as well. Kaede (who had recovered in the meantime) and Rena decided to fight Yachiyo together, but the veteran magical girl easily defeated both of them.

Meanwhile, Momoko and Iroha fought the Rumor, whom showed to be too strong for them. Iroha, Momoko and Yachiyo decided to fight the Rumor together, since the only way to defeat it is to use something that opposes the Rumor itself, aka "friendship". After a fierce battle, the three magical girls defeated the Rumor and saved Rena and Kaede, who came back to normal.
