The Power Gems

Sunny Bay: Iris's home

At Iris's home, the five Princesses were watching some past music videos in Iris's room.

"Looking back on all these, it makes me think back to all the hard work we went through for each of these songs." Iris said.

"It's something that I feel very proud of." Talia said.

"Not to mention, it's fun and exciting to perform." Auriana said.

"I'll say, and it's just as exciting to watch you three perform." Lyna said.

"Every practice is like training, you work hard to overcome a struggle." Carissa said.

Sunny Bay: Smoothie Bar

Later, at the Smoothie Bar, the girls, along with Amaru, went to order smoothies and hang out, when a news suddenly came up on TV.

"We interrupt this program with some breaking news." the news announcer said. "A few hours earlier, a strange flying object was found orbiting the sky, we are unable to determine what this is, but it could be a spaceship. Could this mean that alien life exists?"

"Woah, a spaceship! What do you think it could mean?" Iris said.

"Whatever it is, it could mean trouble, we should go investigate." Talia said.

The girls went to hide in an alley, and Amau turned into his pegasus form; the girls got on Amaru and flew towards the site of the news report.

Sunny Bay: News site

At the skies around the site where the news came from, the girls saw the spaceship, which appeared to be shooting lasers at something that was out of sight.

"It's that spaceship from before." Auriana said.

The spaceship was hit with a beam and crashed down to the ground, and the girls landed to examine the ship.

"Be on your guard, whatever that's in it could be dangerous." Talia said.

The girls got ready with their weapons as the spaceship's door opened, and from the ship exited a robot, which collapsed onto the ground.

It mainly had a white body with black arms and legs, its eyes

"Darn it, I can't continue going like this; if I'm unable to find people worthy of protecting the Power Gems, they will fall into evil hands." the robot said.

"Power Gems?" Lyna said.

"Hey, you alright?" Carissa asked as she went to help the robot.

"The Power Gems, I must protect them." the robot said as he went back into his ship and came back out with a case. "Good, I haven't lost them, all five are safe."

"But not for long!" a voice shouted out.

The source of the voice was a monstrous creature: it had a humanoid figure, its body was completely metallic in appearance, with white spikes protruding from its shoulders, and yellow eyes from a skull-like face.

"Who… or what is that?" Iris asked.

"I've been tracking you for quite some time now, and I finally shot you down upon this planet, Cabax. Now, hand over the Power Gems, or prepare to be shut down… permanently." the creature said to the robot.

"Not so fast!" Iris said as she and the other Princesses stepped in to defend Cabax.

"Aw, isn't that nice, these Earthlings have decided to protect you, too bad I'll have to annihilate them alongside you!" the creature said.

"No, don't try to fight Steelekor, he will kill you!" Cabax said.

"Yeah, but we're far from weak, we'll show him!" Iris said.

"Iris, Princess of Ephedia! Talia, Princess of Xeris! Auriana, Princess of Volta! Lyna, Princess of Borealis! Carissa, Princess of Calix!"The girls used their magic accessories to change into their Magical Princess dresses and prepared to fight Steelekor.

"Crystemsabrus!" Iris and Talia cast a spell to make their weapons into a sword and a double-bladed scythe respectively.

Iris and Talia tried to strike Steelekor with their bladed weapons, but Steelekor's body proved to be too hard and the blades broke.

"Woah, his body is tough." Iris said.

The Princesses all struck with their strongest attacks, but they were no match for Steelekor's durable body.

"It's no use, your puny attacks can't harm me!" Steelekor said.

"What do we do? Our attacks have no effect on this guy!" Auriana said.

"I'll help you." Cabax said as he stepped up; Cabax created an energy ball from his hands and shot it at Steelekor, who was sent flying away.

"I'll be back!" Steelekor said as he flew out of sight.

"Now, hurry! Before he comes back!" Cabax said as he revealed the five Power Gems, which were pink, blue, orange, green, and purple. "Take one each and see if they will bond to you."

The Princesses each took a Gem that corresponded to their signature colors, and the Power Gems began to glow as they each bonded to their respective Princesses.

"The Pink Gem: light, the Blue Gem: ice, the Orange Gem: fire, the Green Gem: wind, and the Purple Gem: lightning." Cabax said. "Each of the Power Gems contain an elemental power, and now you have the power to wield them."

And then, Steelekor returned, intent on finishing the fight.

"So, these girls bonded to the Power Gems, huh? No matter, I'll just kill you all and retrieve the Power Gems from your corpses!"

"I don't have time to explain much, but for now, I'll transfer the information for the basic abilities into your minds." Cabax said, and his eyes lit up, and so did the Princesses' eyes.

The Princesses now knew what to do and they changed into new outfits from the Power Gems and they each moved in to attack Steelekor.

Iris summoned a sword that had a beam of light for a blade, Talia summoned a staff with balls of ice at both ends, Auriana summoned a whip with a lash of fire, Lyna summoned two shurikens that had tornado symbol on both, and Calissa summoned a large hammer that had a lightning bolt symbol on it; the girls used these new weapons and were finally able to hurt Steelekor.

"Impossible, they just bonded to the Power Gems, how did they master their new powers already?" Steelekor asked.

"Now let's finish him!" Iris said.

First, Carissa started off the attack, followed by Lyna, Auriana, Talia, and Iris.

The combination of lightning, wind, fire, ice, and light became a powerful attack that struck Steelekor, who was consumed in an explosion, killing him.

"Yeah, we did it!" Lyna said.

"You did well, I believe it is time for me to tell you my backstory." Cabax said.

Cabax explained his story: how he became the guardian of the Power Gems, the encounter with an alien named Galactus and his army, and Galactus's ruthless pursuit.

"Wow, it sure sounds like you had it rough." Auriana said.

"Let's bring you to our home, and you can rest there." Iris said.

Sunny Bay: Iris's home

Back at the house, the Princesses told Aunt Ellen about their encounter with Cabax and the following events.

"Oh my, you were lucky to run into the girls when you did, Cabax." Aunt Ellen said.

"And now, we have a mission: to stop the aliens from getting the Power Gems." Iris said, and the girls each held out their respective Power Gems.

Outer space: Galactus's ship

From his ship, the evil Galactus was reviewing Steelekor's defeat.

"So, Cabax has found some help, huh?" Galactus said. "Fine then, it'll be so much fun, annihilating them all."
