The scene opens on Homura in her room, glumly watching it rain outside. "It's been a few days since a little red pegasus came to live in my DS..." she narrates via voiceover as we see the scene of Hinote flying into Homura's DS again. "He told me that the world he came from was protected by eight Rainbow Notes, and all together, their song would drive away the evil force he claimed was threatening his world and mine." We see scenes of Ruida and the Urusainaa again. "To make things even crazier, one of my schoolmates had received this pegasus' sister, and together, we became their guardians, PreCure." We see scenes of Hinote and Kouri's reunion and Homura and Yuki's transformation. "On the bright side, I have gotten to know Yuki a little, but I still don't understand all this yet. Something tells me that that monster and our superpowers were no dream, especially after I saw Aiden's video evidence..."

"Hey, Homura!" Hinote interrupts, startling Homura. "I'm hungry-hino!"

"Remind me again what you like to eat?" Homura sighs as she starts to the door--deep down, she wishes she could just have a special game card to feed Hinote in one step.

"That sweet grain with the white stuff you have!" Hinote smiles.

It takes a minute for Hinote's request to register, but once Homura realizes that Hinote wants the frosted wheat cereal Hikari likes, she smiles. "Just wait there, I'll be back with some breakfast." With that, she heads downstairs to the kitchen, all the while praying Hikari won't see her taking the cereal as she removes it from the cabinet over the sink.

"Gee, nee-san, I didn't know you liked my cereal too!" Hikari smiles, catching Homura off guard. Homura has to think quickly--she can't let Hikari know about Hinote.

Fortunately, Homura has a legitimate excuse. "We're out of my cereal, so is it okay if I have some of yours?" Sure enough, there's an empty box of Honey Nut Rings--Homura's favorite cereal--in the trash to lend credibility to her ruse.

Thankfully, Hikari buys the ruse. "Okay, but save me some!"

"Thank you." Homura smiles as she pours a small bowl, relieved that she's dodged one hurdle of keeping Hinote a secret.

[OP: DANZEN! Futari wa PreCure (Flash Fire version)]

In the Black Realm, Ruida appears before Lady Dischord. "I found the winged horses, but it appears they have their own guardians..."

"Guardians?" Lady Dischord is interested. "What kind of guardians?"

"According to my research..." a brown haired boy clad in a vest-like outfit and slacks begins as he enters the room. "The winged horses that guarded the Rainbow Notes of Life are protected by two soldiers that are only known as PreCure. Our allies have encountered similar pairs like them, although a group of PreCure with more then two awakened ones is not uncommon." Clips from Max Heart, Splash Star, Yes! PreCure 5, and Fresh PreCure flash on the screen to illustrate Bruyant's point.

Lady Dischord isn't sure what to think. "If this...PreCure...is indeed the manifestation of the power of light..."

"I know they exist! They destroyed the Urusainaa I picked!" Ruida pleads.

"Her Ladyship is merely requesting that you try and get these PreCure, whatever they are, to appear again--one encounter with them isn't enough to convince her they're out there." Yende assures Ruida.

"Fine...I'll try again to find the winged horses and see if they appear..." Ruida sighs as she turns to leave.

At Yuki's house, an acoustic guitar melody drifts from a garden nearby a house. A closer look reveals Yuki is the one playing the song. Kouri hovers nearby the loveseat, listening to the song and admiring the flowers that appear to stretch for miles. When Yuki finishes, Kouri smiles. "That was lovely-kori!"

"Thank you--I've been playing since I was little." Yuki smiles as she tunes a little.

"If we were on the Crystal Plains, I'm sure that melody would become a set of Note Gems-kori." Kouri smiles.

"Speaking of which, how are you going to carry the Rainbow Notes we find back home to your world?" Yuki asks as she sets her instrument aside and offers Kouri a carrot.

"My brother Hinote has the book that keeps them safe-kori--the Score of Colors." Kouri explains. "I do hope the girl that found him is taking good care of him."

[Episode title-"Homura's challenge! Trouble at the game center!"]

Homura sighs as she retrieves her books from her locker--it's Friday, she's looking foward to the weekend, and in her eyes, she would rather be blading somewhere than doing algebra this early in the morning.

Keiko and Aiden are discussing plans for the weekend. "I wish I could go to the game center with you, Aiden, but my family wants me to go camping with them." Keiko begins.

"That'll be fun!" Aiden smiles.

"With my brothers, camping is anything but." Keiko groans as she gets her science book from her locker.

"Boukeno-san?" a voice calls.

Homura whirls around to see Yuki approaching. "Oh, Yuki, hi!"

"I was wondering if you had anything planned for the weekend." Yuki smiles as the two of them start for class.

"No, why?" Homura is piqued.

"If it doesn't rain, would you like to join me at the park for a picnic?" Yuki asks.

"Yeah!" Homura is excited about the possibility of food, but then she remembers it could rain that Saturday. "If it rains, we could meet at the game center or the movies..."

Much to Homura's surprise, Yuki is interested in the game center. "I love the dancing games there--I use them to practice dancing when it is raining."

"Interesting..." Homura muses. She hasn't seen Yuki as the type to enjoy video games before. "I hear your dad is a great director...." she continues.

"Yes--he's currently on location, shooting a romantic comedy set in Ireland." Yuki explains. "With his job taking him all around the world, I don't get to see him too often, but I do receive letters and gifts from him--to let me know he loves me and is thinking about me."

Homura is about to ask what the movie is about, but remembers the confrontation between Akane and Kaede a few days before, so decides not to pursue the subject further. "Well--my dad is a talent agent--he gets to see the next generation of idols and actors up close and personal...maybe your dad is working with actors my dad scouted, even!"

"It's very possible he does." Yuki smiles as she and Homura enter classroom 8C and take their seats.

Later that day...

"You did a great job of not coming out of the DS while I was in class." Homura smiles as she puts her schoolbooks away. Hinote is nearby on Homura's bed, nibbling on some carrots and dip.

"So that explains all that talking about numbers and history I heard-hino..." Hinote replies. "The Green Plains seems to be a fascinating place-hino."

"When you hear about its wonders every day for most of the year, it gets old fast." Homura sighs as she turns on her TV to check the weather forecast. She sighs when she sees that rain is called for on Saturday. "So much for meeting Yuki at the park..."

"Aw, I wanted to see Kouri..." Hinote sighs. Suddenly, the ringing of Homura's cell phone gets his attention. "What's that?"

"That would be my phone." Homura assures Hinote. "Hello?"

"Hi, Homura, Aiden here..." Aiden begins on the other end. "I was over by the game center a little while ago, and I saw this girl nearby sending what I thought was an egg inside--so if you're still going to the game center tomorrow, be careful--you could find something like that trash can monster out there."

"Will do." Homura replies. Deep down, she wonders if that egg also contains an Urusainaa as well. "You take care yourself, Aiden."

"All right." Aiden replies as Homura hangs up.

"I think your friend saw one of the minions of the Black Realm-hino!" Hinote announces.

Homura is not impressed. "I'll believe it when I see it." she replies, making Hinote sweatdrop.

The next day...

"Homura-san, this way!" Yuki calls as Homura slows to a stop before the Game Center and sets the wheels on her shoes inside their proper locations, making her shoes become normal footwear.

"Glad you could make it." Homura smiles.

"Hinote!" Kouri makes a mad dash for her brother.

"Kouri!" Hinote smiles. The two pegasi then begin chasing each other in erratic circles around their human masters.

"Aren't they cute?" Yuki giggles as Kouri leads Hinote through her legs. Homura just rolls her eyes and hopes that no one sees the two pegasi. After a few tense minutes, the two pegasi return to their owners and go inside their respective DSes, all without anybody noticing.

"That was close." Homura sighs as she pockets the red DS.

"Perhaps they wanted to spend time with each other for a while." Yuki explains before taking a look around the various games, air hockey tables, and Skee Ball ramps.

Homura decides to play a Tetris machine while Yuki stomps and jumps to the beat on a DDR machine, but before the two of them can get comfortable at their respective games, a crash and a scream is heard on one of the upper floors.

"Something's wrong!" Homura gasps. Yuki agrees and follows Homura upstairs, where a crowd of onlookers is watching what looks like a living Cyclone game chase a girl around the floor. Aiden's phone call weighs on Homura's mind--could that monster had been what came out of the egg he had saw?

"Urusainaa!" the monster roars as it tries to snare the girl in a ring of flashing lights.

"We have to help her!" Yuki calls. Homura nods, and the two of them jam the music note game cards into their DSes, join hands, and call "Dual Elemental Fury!", causing the wave of flames and ice to wash over the twosome again.

Inside the cocoon of flames and ice, Homura's body, now glowing red, first gains a ruffley shirt-like outfit, colored red, gold, and orange, before gaining a matching skirt in the same colors. Yuki gets the same sort of outfit on her glowing blue body, only hers is colored in silver, light blue, and dark blue. Homura next gains some black fingerless gloves, while Yuki gets some white gloves that have fingers. Homura's next piece of clothing is red pants with gold trim and brown shoes, with a gold bow with a red button on the shirt to finish. Yuki gains some light blue pants with silver and dark blue trim and white shoes, with a light blue bow with a dark blue button in the center.

As the cocoon clears, Homura confidently challenges the monster. "The flames of a pulsing rhythm, Cure Ember!"

"The lullaby of a winter's night, Cure Glacier!" Yuki agrees.

"We are PreCure!" both call.

"Urusainaa!" The monster fires a ring of lights at Glacier, trapping her! But Ember delivers a flaming kick at the Urusainaa, breaking Glacier free. Glacier jumps away from bullets of lights and delivers an icy kick into the monster's back, making it spark with the damage. But miraculously, the damage heals itself in a matter of seconds.

"No way!" Glacier is shocked.

"Cardinal rule of video games..." Ember explains. "There's some location on the monster that's its weak spot." She pauses to dodge another ring of lights before going on. "Part of forming a good strategy is finding where that weak point is."

"Then maybe its back isn't its weak spot..." Glacier muses before getting an idea: What if she were to break the glass around the Urusainaa's head? "Ember! Distract the Urusainaa long enough for me to get a clear shot of its head!"

"Okay!" Ember replies before whistling for the Urusainaa's attention. "Hey sparkly eyes! Come get me!" she taunts. Angered, the Urusainaa fires three more light rings, but Ember dodges each one. Glacier takes advantage of the distraction to deliver an ice tinged blow to the glass, shattering it and greatly weakening the Urusainaa.

Ember takes that opportunity to charge a fireball. "Fire of a beat eternal..."

"Melody soft as falling snow..." Glacier says as she charges an ice ball.

"Together with the songs of PreCure..." Ember continues, holding her ball high.

"Let all the world sing of the promise of love!" Glacier adds, holding her ball high.

"PreCure...Frosty Fever!" With that, both balls are slammed to the ground, making a wave of fire and ice engulf the Urusainaa, making it return to a normal Cyclone game again and healing what damage was caused.

"PreCure, how can I ever repay you?" the girl smiles before hugging Glacier.

"Don't mention it!" Ember smiles as the crowd, relieved the monster is gone, begins to cheer. If this is how I'll be thanked every time, I think I might like this PreCure gig... Ruida, who has been watching from behind a potted tree, turns to leave in a huff after seeing the Urusainaa she used has been defeated.

Later, the DDR machine sings "Smile, go go!" as Homura and Yuki step on the sparkling arrows arrows in time to the beat. While Homura is doing fairly well at following the beat, there's still some notes she stumbles over. Yuki, meanwhile, is hitting every note on the beat, making her combo count continue to climb, while Homura's combo is broken and started in spurts. When the song ends, Homura has a B, while Yuki has a full combo AAA.

Homura is impressed. "Wow, Yuki, you weren't kidding when you said you trained on these!"

"Would you like to try another song?" Yuki offers, noting that it is Homura's turn to pick the song for the next stage. Homura smiles and cycles through the song list for a moment before making her choice. The two of them proceed to dance to "Ganbalance de Dance ~Melodies of Fire and Ice~" for the crowd that has come to watch.
