Author's Note

The focus for this chapter may surprise a few but there are a few new things happening near the end. This chapter was a little more fun to write and it did end up being a little longer. Not as long as chapters 5 and 8 though, those two were really long. I should be able to get 1 more chapter out this month so please look forward to that. I'm really happy to see there are several people that are still reading this crossover and enjoying it. Thank!

I will keep trying to improve my writing. However, I definitely want to keep this style I have. It's definitely not a proper English style writing but it's meant to be more anime like anyways. I had started looking into different writing but do let me know if there is anything to correct.

Chapter 14: Last Minute Hero, Star Dream Spike!

The next day, an hour before the live event. Kanade is in her waiting room with Hibiki, Ellen, Ako, and Hummy. However, Hummy, Ellen and Ako look very tired.

Hibiki then asks "What's wrong with you three?"

Ellen asks "Actually, last night we…"

Hummy "Hurry up-nya! Let's find at least one Module before the help comes-nya!"

Ellen says "Hummy, wait up. Ako is…"

Hummy and Ellen look at Ako and sees her barely keeping up.

Ako "I'm alright. Just keep going, I'll be there soon."

"Okay-nya. Come on Siren, let's go!"

Ellen sighs "Alright. Ako, take your time. We'll be just a bit ahead."

Ako nods and Hummy starts running forward. Ellen is trying to pace herself between Hummy and Ako.

Hummy then suddenly sees something "Nya? What is that?" and she immediately runs toward it.

Ellen shouts "Hummy! Wait!"

The two leave Ako behind and Ako looks at them "Did they found it? Good…" Ako seats down and takes a break.

When Hummy reaches the item, she picks it up with Ellen right behind her. "Hummy, did you find it?"

Hummy turns around and holding a golden star brooch with fluttering rainbow fabric behind it.

"It's this-nya"

Ellen takes a closer look "What's that? It's pretty but… what's this feeling?"

"Siren can feel it too-nya?"

She nods "Yeah, but… What is it?"

"I don't know-nya. I'll ask Aphrodite later-nya."

"Alright, Ako, let's head back for now… Ako?"

Ellen then puts it in the Live Module's box and starts looking for Ako

Ellen then keeps talking "And by the time we found Ako, it's already night time. Ako was taking an afternoon nap."

Hibiki then teases Ako "I didn't know Ako can be such a sleepy head."

Ako blushes "Shu… Shut up! I was tired from looking in the forest for hours."

Kanade then questions "If that's the case, why is Ako…"

Ellen answers "She just couldn't sleep after that."

Kanade makes a wry laugh while Ako pouts. Soon after, there is a knock on the door.

Kanade answers "Come in!"

The door opens and reveals Yume comes in "Yo, I came. How are you doing?"

"I'm doing alright, I think."

"Well, I'm sure you'll be fine. It is just… no, nevermind."

Kanade blanks out "Eh?"

Hibiki then complains "Wait, you can't just say that and then nevermind."

"Ahhahaha, sorry. It's just that I heard…"

Before Yume finishes, voices can be heard in the hallway.

"Umm, I'm really sorry but didn't you say you have a long shooting session today?"

"I did, but I never said I can't make it finish early! Then you go ahead and find someone else."

A third voice then says "I know this is a little unfair to you but she has practiced a lot for today."

"So? She is still too new for an event like this. This is it, excuse me!"

Then the S4 Ako barges in "Kanade! Do you think you are qualified to do the opening? If not, step down right now!"

Kanade can't say anything while Hibiki says "Wait for a second, Kanade was asked to do the opening."

Standing behind Ako is Mahiru and she says "Hibiki is right, we asked Kanade and she agreed."

"Can all of you be quiet? I'm asking Kanade right now."

"I…"

"Well, you have an hour to answer. Think about it and I'll see if I need to take over."

Ako then walks out then Mahiru and Yozora follow while trying to calm down Ako. As they leave, Kanade looks at Ako leaving while thinking about it. Silence then takes over the room.

Ellen breaks the ice after a while "That Ako, that was just unnecessary. But still, Kanade, I can see her point. If we want to stand on the stage, then we need to at least be confident."

Kanade looks at Ellen "Ellen, I know but…"

Hummy then raises her paw but not much reaction from Kanade. Instead, it got Yume's attention.

"Handshake?" Yume grabs Hummy's paw and felt it "What is this? Hummy's paw is…"

"Amazing-nya!"

Hibiki then says "Right? Kanade loves to touch Hummy's paw. It's one of her weaknesses."

Kanade then stands up, Hibiki then panics "Ah sorry! Are you mad? I'm really sorry!"

"I'm not really mad but… I would like to be alone for a bit." Kanade then runs out

Hibiki wants to chase after Kanade but Yume stops her "Wait, let me do it. I understand the pressure she feels right now more than anyone here."

Their Ako then nods "Let's let Yume do it. I bet you don't even know what to do."

Hibiki reluctantly nods "Then please, Yume, I'll count on you."

Yume smiles brightly "Leave it to me!" then runs off, chasing after Kanade.

When Yume found Kanade, she is in a nearby park feeding birds.

"Kanade! There you are!"

"Yume, why are you here?"

"I just thought you may be around here and might want some company."

"Well…"

Yume looks up into the sky "It's okay, you don't have to say anything. Let's see, all you have to do is think about what do you want to do?"

"But isn't that selfish? It looks like Ako was supposed to do the opening…"

"You are right, but the one who got the role was you. But… it's weird for her to get upset over it."

"Eh?"

"Ako thinks about her friend's well being. Even though she acts rough and could be a little hard to deal with, it's usually for the best intention."

"Best intention, but… for what? I don't even know what to do right now. Hmm? No… it's what I… I get it!" Kanade suddenly springs up and looks at Yume with a smile

"Kanade?"

"Yume, thank you! I get it now, they were testing me. Now I definitely can't back down. After all, I practiced so hard for this. Yeah, that's right, I want to do the opening live. I'm going to see Ako!"

Kanade runs off, leaving Yume behind

"Eh? Testing Kanade? Was that what it was?"

Kanade knocks on SKY-GIRL's door and got an immediate answer to go in.

"Excuse me!"

In there, Ako is there with the SKY-GIRL.

Ako asks "So, have you thought about it?"

Kanade nods "Yes, thanks to Yume. I figured it out and… I'm going to do the opening live! I practiced over and over just for it. I don't want to regret it!"

Ako backs off and smiles "Is that so, then make sure to do your best!"

"Yes! I'll bring out my spirit recipe to 200 percent!"

Tsubasa who wasn't involved questions "Umm, did something happened?"

Kanade answers "Ah, I think they were testing my determination to stand on the stage, right?"

She turns to them while Tsubasa stares at them with a cold glare. They start to panics a little but someone knocks on the door.

Tsubasa answers "Come in!"

"Uhmm, sorry, Sky Girl, would Minamono Kanade be here?"

Kanade answers "AH, that's me. Is it time to get ready?"

The staff nods "Yes, the opening live will start in 15."

"Got it!" Kanade turns around to Ako and Sky Girl members "Sorry and thanks. I'll remember this lesson!" She then follows the staff to get ready

Ako then tries to leave but Tsubasa stands in front of her

"Where do you think you are going? I have a lot to say regarding this, incident."

When Kanade leaves, Suzu happens to be around the corner and overheard Tsubasa begins her lecture. She looks at them as she looks through the wall.

"That's... I see. Isn't this just perfect?"

Suzu takes out a black ID card gives it a quick kiss. The card then envelopes her from head to toe and she slowly walks forward, escaping from the dark entity. Suzu's hair becomes slightly longer and she runs her fingers through them. With it, dark glittering particles can be seen.

"Kosei Suzuku check-in!"

She then points at the girls, over the wall "Fallen Star! Forgotten, Negadol!"

Each one of them had their heart filled with their energy and becomes Negadol. Soon after, Gyaku shows up.

"Aren't you getting greedy? Turning four at once."

"Perhaps, but this should work out. I'll leave them to you, you are better at controlling than I do."

"Hahaha, with your Negadol and my control, we'll win for sure!"

"We never know, just don't let your guard down. Precure always seem to find a solution."

"Alright alright, I'll be sure to finish them when I get the chance. I don't want to end up taking that after all."

Suzu then looks at Gyaku with a grin "Oh, that's right. This is your last chance. I almost forgot, mister failure."

"Oh shut up! I'll take care of them for sure! You just sit back and watch!"

"Then I'll do just that, I'll be watching then. Bye bye~" Suzu then teleports away.

On the stage, the host of the event is Yume.

"Everyone, thanks for coming! Today we have the long waited SKY-GIRL live!"

Loud cheers can be heard and Yume waits a bit before continue

"MmmMmm! I can hear everyone can't wait for their live! However, this is going to be a long night! Especially when a promising idol that both Kasumi Yozora and Kasumi Mahiru agree on is here tonight as well!"

Some of the crowds start speculating who it is but Yume isn't giving them too much time.

"I think most people already thought of a few but without further ado, let's start!"

Yume disappears from the stage and Kanade soon shows up onto the stage. However, it is better than any of her previous performances. Her dance, singing, and aura are all much better than before. Kanade continues her performance with everything she got. As the music stops, a loud cheer could be heard from the crowd.

Yume then jumps back up onto the stage "That was amazing, Kanade."

Kanade responds while out of breath "Yes, I… gave it my all. I want to make sure the opening live is the best!"

"That was definitely the best opening live we could ask for."

Then a voice from above them "Yeah, that was the best, for the end of this charade! Negadol!"

When they look up, it is Gyaku with four Negadol. The negadol immediately makes noise and causes every single regular people to lose the will to do anything. The Negadols then jumps onto the stage while Hibiki and other runs up to Yume and Kanade.

Kanade then says "Again, disrupting our live event. This time for sure, we won't forgive you!"

The five girls then transform into precure. However, Gyaku isn't giving them time and immediately have the Negadol attack. While they are getting attacked, Yume notices who they are.

"Hold on, is it… Ako, Mahiru, Yozora, and Tsubasa?"

Muse then says "That Ako, she got turned into Negadol again…"

First one to attack is Tsubasa, crashing down the ground with a punch. All the cures jump away but that separates them. Melody is fighting against Yozora. Rhythm is fighting Mahiru. Beat is fighting against Tsubasa. While Muse is fighting against Ako. While Diva is facing Gyaku.

Gyaku then says "You are Diva right? What a name, but that's it. Each one of you isn't that strong but together, you girls somehow always make it work out."

Diva couldn't answer but stares at him while preparing to defend herself. Gyaku then gets ready to leap forward "If you are not attacking, then don't mind if I do!"

Diva deflect Gyaku's attack while Gyaku ridicules her "What's wrong? Is defending all you can do? Answer me, Diva!"

Gyaku then lands a punch at Diva and sends her flying. Diva slowly gets back up and looks at Gyaku.

"Is… fighting you the only way? Is there any way for you to stop trying to get rid of us idols?"

"Rid of idols? Sorry, that's not our intention at all. We just want a society where everyone can work properly and effectively."

"I know, but isn't idols important for that to happen? We are trying to bring joy and smiles to our fans. Our fans would find energy in them to look forward to tomorrow!"

"But the money they spend on you idols are worthless compared to investment. Your fans won't have a future if they can't even understand what's important. Entertainment is worthless."

"A world without entertainment is just… too sad…"

"Enough, I'll defeat you today!"

Gyaku dashes in and tries to punch Diva one more time. Diva defends but couldn't stop the force from pushing her back. Diva happens to crash into Rhythm as she is landing from a jump.

Both of them at the same time "Ow ow…"

"Negadol!"

The Mahiru Negadol does a kick from high up. Diva recovers first and grabs Rhythm away. They manage to avoid the attack just in time.

"Diva, thanks. Ha… ha…" Rhythm thanks Diva while out of breath.

"Are you okay?"

Rhythm nods "Of course, this is nothing. The ones suffering are them."

Rhythm looks at the Negadols and Diva notices what Rhythm means shortly.

"I see, but to fight them…"

"I thought the same once, but do you know what Melody had said?"

"Eh?"

"We are not fighting them. We are fighting the evil heart that is being controlled."

"That's… I see."

Gyaku then cuts into their conversation "What are you two talking about? Take this!"

Gyaku goes for a jump kick. However, Diva steps aside then grab his leg. She then starts spinning and tosses Gyaku far away.

"I won't lose… My fans, no… Everyone's smile, I'll definitely protect them!"

"Protect? Very funny. Negadol!"

The Negadols come together and each one holds one hand out.

"Fire, Negablast!"

"Beat Barrier!" Beat jumps in front of everyone and uses Beat Barrier. The barrier couldn't last and the attack breaks through. The attack hit the cures hard and they all fell on to the ground.

"Nice! One more and they are gone! Negadol!"

"Negaaadol!"

Before the attack hits the precure again, a gold light drops down right in front of them.

"I don't think so!"

The person stops the attack with their hands and as smokes dissipate, it reveals to be noise in his human form.

Gyaku looks at him with surprise "Noise, but what is that form?"

His new look consist of a golden feather with a white body. His red hair remains the same.

Hibiki looks at him "Noise, Pii-chan?"

"Yes, it is me. However, let's take care of them first."

Noise jumps in and attacks Gyaku

"I'll take care of this one. Precure, save those girls!"

Everyone but Diva jumps in and attack.

"To save them, we have to fight. This is hard but for some reason, it's almost like… A new Aikatsu!"

Diva's eye glitters with newfound strength and one of the Negadol hit by Melody is flying towards her.

"Dol?"

Negadol couldn't stop the crash course and Diva makes a sidekick. Her kick sends the Negadol at Gyaku. Noise at that time also finds a chance and grabs Gyaku then throws him at the Negadol. The two crashes together while Gyaku is trying to push the Negadol off him. The rest of them looks at the situation and sents the rest of the Negadol at Gyaku.

Noise then tells the precure "Now!"

Diva, however, adds "Wait, there are four of them so… maybe the four of you should do it together!"

The four of them looks at each other and Melody says "If it's the four of us… Wait, are you telling us to…"

Diva interrupts Melody "Don't worry, besides, that is a song that means a lot to us."

Diva looks at the Negadols. The girls then understand and behind enters Aikatsu Mode.

All four together "Precure, Aikatsu Mode!"

"Playful Paradise Coord!"

"Precious Songtress Coord!"

"Sky Rider Coord!"

"Golden Swan Coord!"

When the four of them finish transforming, they begin to sing Episode Solo.

Diva listening to their Episode Solo and has no complain. The Negadols' aura are slowly getting purified.

"As I thought, the four of them could do it. Then… I should do the next part."

Diva grips her hand tight in front of her chest.

"I'll definitely turn them back to normal!"

Then off in a great distance, where Hummy is hiding. The box she carries is forced open and the Brooch flys in front of Diva. The Brooch shines and turns into a twirling baton. The Baton has the same rainbow parts to it but it is much longer.

"This is… Rainbow Baton. I see I can do this!"

At the same time, the Negadol aura are gone and everyone turns their attention to Diva. She begins by pointing the baton out at the Negadols.

"Rainbow Baton!"

She then spins the baton and becomes a rainbow ball. Diva then taps the bottom and rainbow ball is sent up into the sky. Diva jumps after it.

"Precure, Star Dream Spike!"

The attack is dead straight at the Negadol and Gyaku. However, Gyaku who couldn't get out with the Negadols on top of him decides to just teleport out in last second. Star Dream Spike hits the Negadol and they are successfully turned back to normal. Soon after, people starts waking up and live event resumes.

Afterward, the live continue and SKY-GIRL stands on the stage. Noise, however, returns back to the little bird Pii-chan.

Hibiki says "I remember Aphrodite told us that we are getting help, but I wasn't expecting Pii-chan."

"Pii, Pii!"

Hummy helps to translate "He says he is indeed the help Aphrodite sent."

Kanade then questions "But how did you change? And why did you change back?"

"Pii Pii Pii!"

Hummy nods a few times "He says Aphrodite and Mephisto lend him some of their power. However, even with their power, he can only transform about 5 more times at most."

Yume then says "I guess it's for an emergency or we are in a pinch. Too bad, your other form was pretty cool."

Ako nods "Yes, but I think Pii-chan being like this is fine."

Ellen nods "I agree, since..."

Ako and Ellen then rub their cheek against Pii

Then together "Pii-chan is so cute!"

"Pii!"

Surprised by the sudden snuggle, Noise couldn't escape and simply let out a few cries.
