A/N: Hello everyone, well this is my very first attemp at writing a fanfic in English (couch actually second but we won't talk about that), I'm Dutch so expect some awkward lines, wordings and some spelling errors (well I am using Spell Check but still..) Constructive Critism is always welcome. Be it Grammar-mistakes or Storyline-fails.
Well yeah, because the enormous amount of Pretty Cure fanfics and the wide variety of ideas and things you can use, I decided to write one too because it just looks so much fun.
Yay!
Hope you'll enjoy it!
''You guys! Hurry Up!''
The little bat looked up to the diminutive wolf standing a few feet away from him, his wings hurt and flying was harder than he though it would be. He carried a small, living pumpkin in his small claws, while desperately trying to fly forward.
They had to get away before Onibara's minions would catch up with them. They had to escape.
But to where?
The bat named Orlok had no idea, just half an hour ago, they were fighting against the crazy, rose-obsessed woman known as Onibara. He and his fellow Pretty Cure tried to stop her from attacking King Hallow...but by the time they arrived at the castle, the King was already gone and Onibara didn't hesitate to curse him and his Pretty Cure-allies.
Now he was a small little bat. But at least he could fly and he still had hands (or claws), poor Jacky was turned into a small, handless and feet less pumpkin.
''Argg, we have to go to the gate! Or else they will kill us!'' Said the wolf with a gruff voice which didn't fit his appearance at all.
''To the human world?'' Orlok gasped, while he put the pumpkin, Jacky on the ground, she hopped towards the wolf.
''What about Wisp and Zeta? They are still imprisoned,'' Jacky whispered with a teary voice. The wolf growled and let out a long sign.
''I don't want to die. We have to go or else they find us and who knows what Onihag will do with us!'' The wolf answered. Jacky looked at Orlok, wanting him to come up with a plan. He was chosen as the leader because he always knew what to do.
But now he seemed totally lost.
''Maybe we can give our powers to some humans? So they can fight against Onibara?'' He suggested meekly pointing to the necklace around his neck, it was his transformation device, The Hollow Changer. The wolf touched his own Hollow Changer with his hairy paw and Jacky merely looked at hers.
''Let's do it then!'' The wolf snorted before suddenly running off towards the big gate not very far from them.
''Larry! Wait!'' Jacky screamed with a squeaky voice while the small wolf rushed out of sight, leaving the bat and pumpkin behind.
When the two heard voices from a distance Orlok immediately grabbed Jacky and flew away as hard as he could, towards the big gate.
Op: 'Halloween Night' - Aya Ikeda
Episode 1: Aah! So much for a Lazy vacation! Cure Blood is reborn!
Both teachers and students of the Fukutoku High School were waiting for the school bell to finally go. Then it would finally be vacation and the year would be over.
Yuina Akagawa was staring at the clock and counting along with the ticks, she tapped her pen against her table and rested her head on her hand.
''Just a minute,'' She heard Hotaru Hakamada, the class representative sitting next to her, whisper to no one in particular.
When the bell finally decides to let itself be heard, everyone was almost jumping towards the door.
The teacher, Ms. Morino, pointed towards the school board one more time to remind everyone again that they had homework.
''Don't forget it! If you guys don't make it, you will have to do 50 push ups! Everyday!'' She said and laughed cheerfully. Yuina wasn't sure If she was joking or not. next to being the home room teacher of Class 2-A, Ms. Morino was a very strict Gym-teacher and it wouldn't be the first time she would let someone do push ups.
Yuina grabbed her bag and tried to squirm between her classmates towards the door, everybody wanted to go and enjoy their vacation as soon as possible, that being said Yuina's birthday was in about two weeks. While she never really cared about birthdays she has always been really glad to have a birthday in vacation so that she wouldn't have to go to school and could just relax.
The halls were filled with happy students. Yuina heard Class Representative Hotaru wish everyone a nice vacation and tried to shake hands with everyone.
''I hope I'll be Class Representative again next year,'' She said hopefully while shaking Yuina's hand and gave her a meek smile.
''Of course, you did a great job,'' Yuina admitted. To be completely honest, Class 2-A wasn't a real model class, most students weren't even friends and often argued but Hotaru Hakamada was able to pull everyone trough it with her assertiveness and genuinely friendly personality, even the normally sarcastic and not always motivated Yuina liked her.
Yuina waved goodbye while she started to ran down the stairs, she almost bumped into another girl while jumping off last steps of the stairs.
''Whoa, watch out!'' The girl said while she adjusted her big glasses but Yuina was already running towards the door.
The warm breeze of the wind stroked Yuina's face when she walked outside, she looked up and saw the sun shine brightly. Vacation would be the perfect time to do absolutely nothing at all.
Seinarushima was quite a big island filled with small yet cozy houses and Yuina's house was one of them. She lived only a few blocks away from school and nearby the beach.
''I'm home,'' Yuina said while she took off her shoes, as she expected there was no answer. She saw her mother washing the dishes with earplugs in, even from were Yuina was standing she could still hear the loud rock music that her mother was listening.
It took a tap on the shoulder for her mother to notice Yuina.
''Oh darling, Sorry! I didn't hear you,'' She said sheepishly while she paused her music player. Yuina helped her mother with the dishes.
''Finally vacation!'' Mother said cheery while took the washed plates and put them back.
''And two more weeks,'' She added while she proudly looked at her daughter, Yuina smiled sheepishly.
''Then I'll be sixteen years old. Big deal.''
''Darling..do you want to invite some of your friends?'' Mother asked suddenly. Yuina gave her an annoyed look.
''Which friends?''
Mother felt silent by her daughter's answer, Yuina never was interested in spending time with others. She rather help her parents or relax by herself.
''Mom, I'm fine. I have you and Dad. I don't need anyone else, as long as you are there,'' Yuina said and immediately though how sappy that sounded.
''That sounded pretty stupid,'' She added.
After they were done with most of the housework, Mother turned her music back on and put her earplugs back in her ears while she calmly sat herself on the couch.
Yuina rushed to her room, which was pretty small and mostly empty but very clean. The only things in it were a small bed, a television and a bureau with a shelf of books. After letting herself fall on her bed she changed her clothes and took a small moment to appreciate the outlook from her room, since she lived nearby the beach, she would often take a little walk on the beach to sort out her thoughts.
''Time to watch another episode of 'Secrets and Tears'!'' Yuina acclaimed cheerfully. Secrets and Tears was a very, very long-running Drama series, many wondered why it was still running because not many people watched it and it constantly got low ratings.
While Yuina only later discovered how much she loved the series, she wanted to catch up to the latest episode. Too bad she was only at episode 256 of the 860.
Immediately after diner Yuina rushed back to her room to watch her Drama again.
''Oh, Yuina! I'm going jogging on the beach, want to come?'' Yuina looked up from her tv to see her father standing in the doorway. He wasn't even home for a hour and already wanted to tire himself out.
Hideo Akagawa was a Basketball-coach and was often home late. He loved doing sports in general and did often go jogging with Yuina. She liked it, having some father-daughter time.
''Not today, dad,'' Yuina answered. She didn't feel like it and it was pretty dark alread. Yuina had decided she wanted to be as lazy as possible this vacation.
''Alrighty then I'm forcing your mom to come''
''Good luck with that''
Father left the room and Yuina started watching again.
''Oh! Which episode are you at now?'' He asked and his head reappeared around the doorway.
''258''
Yuina couldn't believe that her father actually managed to convince her mother to go jogging on the beach, but there they were. Yuina could still see them from the window, after a while she disappeared from sight when they've gone to far away from Yuina.
Yuina continued watching her Drama. Why did Hiroto cheat on Mitsuko with Misaki? What a terrible man, Mitsuko loved him so much and he betrays her and...
A loud thud on her window made Yuina jump in surprise. She turned around only to find a little dark ...thing pressed against her window.
After she looked at it a moment it turned out to be a small bat but the strange thing was that it was red-colored.
Did Red-colored bats exist?
And If they did, why was one here? She had never saw any around.
''Help'' She heard a weak voice say. Yuina looked around.
''Let me in, please?'' The voice pleaded while the bat desperately started to scratch the window.
''Are you..talking?'' Yuina asked while she slowly inched to the window.
''Yes, please...I need your help!''
Yuina quickly opened the window and the bat immediately sprung inside and hid under Yuina's bed.
''Wha..?'' Yuina closed the window and looked under her bed.
''MynameisOrlokIreallyneedyourhelpmyfriendsarecapturedHalloweenWorldisindangerthisworldisindangerandIneedsomeonetogivemypowerstosothatwecansavemyworldandyours!'' The little bat rattled nervously and waved his wings up and down, confusing the girl even more.
''Wha...?'' Yuina repeated while the bat took of the necklace he was wearing and handed in to Yuina.
''I didn't get anything you said,'' She said and stared at the bat, Orlok was his name?
''I'll explain later just take this and repeat after me..''
''No. Explain first and repeat later!'' Yuina insisted and grabbed the bat. He looked surprised and offended at the same time.
''...Me and my friends are warriors knows as Pretty Cure. We are from a world simply called Halloween World. Every year, on Halloween, malicious monsters want to escape to the human world to cause destruction and chaos, the Pretty Cure have to prevent that,'' Orlok explained, more slowly this time. He pointed at the necklace in Yuina's hands.
''Me and my fellow Pretty Cure were captured and changed into this form. Now we are unable to transform. I've protected your world for long time so that no harm would come to Humans,'' Orlok continued and Yuina had a pretty hard time grasping it all.
''That sounds Stupid...Are you for real?''
''Yes! Yes! Yes!''
''Prove it!'' Yuina dared and tilted her head to the side while waiting for an answer.
''Put on the Hollow Changer and repeat after me...''
Yuina took a look at the necklace or Hollow Changer as Orlok called it. It looked like a pretty normal necklace with a small pink heart. She did as Orlok told and smiled half-heartedly.
''Now say: 'Boo Boo Bogey! Monster Change!''' Orlok exclaimed dramatically.
''No.''
''Huh?'' Orlok looked at her in surprise. He opened his mouth to say something.
''I'm not saying that. That sounds stupid,'' Yuina said and wanted to take the necklace back off but found that her hands wouldn't let her do that. Every time her hands came close to the necklace, she couldn't move them anymore till she put them down.
''Fine! Boo Boo Bogey! Monster Change!'' She suddenly yelled even though she didn't believe one word of what Orlok had said...well it was pretty impossible to be talking to a red, talking Bat.
She suddenly was engulfed with a dark pink light and felt a very sharp pain in her neck.
''Ah!'' Yuina grabbed her neck. The pain was coming from the necklace, it was like there were needles piercing through it. However the pain disappeared fairly quickly. She felt really light, like she was floating. She only saw dark pink lights which engulfed her hair, arms, body and legs.
Yuina slowly closed her eyes. Only to open them immediately the next moment. She stood in her room. No lights and no pain in her neck.
''Pure Blood lust, Defeating You is a Must! Cure Blood!'' She said without noticing it and immediately put her hands to her mouth.
''Did I just say that? How stupid!''
''You are my successor, The Vampire, Cure Blood!'' Orlok explained proudly and flew next to her.
It didn't take long for Yuina to notice she was wearing a different outfit. A pink top with fluffy sleeves and a puffy black skirt with pink frills. She also wore black gloves and black Mary Janes.
''I changed? I look stupid!'' Then she noticed her hair wasn't dark pink anymore. It was black and tied in twin tails with pink, skull-decorated ribbons.
''And my hair too!?''
''You believe me now? You have transformed into Cure Blood!'' Orlok got close to Yuina's face who was slightly panicked when she bit her lip she noticed yet another thing that was different.
She had pointy teeth.
''How s-stupid...'' Yuina slowly felt her teeth. This wasn't real, was it?
''Do I have to explain it, again?'' Orlok got a slightly annoyed voice this time as he landed on Yuina's shoulder.
Before Yuina could say anything, there was another loud thud. Yuina looked at her window and soon found herself staring into two snow white eyes
Behind her window stood a boy, completely dressed in white clothes which resembled a school uniform. His hair was the same color as his clothes and eyes.
''Oh, I found you, small one!'' The boy said calmly and smiled wide with his huge mouth. It only took him a few punches against the window to break the class and jump inside.
Yuina was horrified when the boy stretched out his arm towards her, or Orlok, and all while having that same creepy, wide smile plastered on his pale face.
''Come, batty, batty~!'' He sung softly while Yuina took a few steps backwards.
''Boneys!'' Orlok screamed at flew up while the boy, Boneys, managed to hit Yuina in the stomach, however Yuina grabbed the arm and tried to trow him against the wall but Yuina was horrified when his arm simply fell off.
''What?!''
''Lady, can I have that back~?'' Boneys said in the same melodic tone but Yuina hit him with his own arm.
Boneys tripped and fell backwards, right into the DVD-set of Secrets and Tears.
Yuina felt her heart sink.
''..How dare you...?'' She groaned, despite the fact that it was partly her own fault. She felt her blood boil and ran towards Boneys, tackling him.
She picked the boy up and threw him out the window, she herself followed by jumping out and landed on the soft grass, not far away she could see a bright half-moon shining down on her.
''Cure Blood!'' Orlok yelled as he sat by the window, watching the fight. Yuina turned around and looked at him impatiently.
''Use Blood Fang and bite his head off!'' He continued while Yuina gave him a strange look. She turned to Boneys.
''Pretty Cure! Blood Fa-!'' Yuina opened her mouth, ready to take a tasty bite of his flesh but he started to cringe before she could do anything.
''NONONONONONONONO!'' He rattled and whimpered while he stood up and suddenly disappeared.
Yuina stood there for a moment. Did she seriously consider to bite that boy? And did she seriously though it would be 'tasty'?
''What happened...?'' She said softly and soon found herself being back to normal. She was wearing her pajama's again and her hair was back to being dark pink, also her teeth weren't pointy anymore.
''Oh no... He got away,'' Orlok said softly and flew towards Yuina, who looked at him in confusion, anger and ….fright.
''What happened!?''
Yuina had the feeling this wasn't going to be a lazy vacation.
At all.
