"Regina?" Rikka said.

Rikka, Alice, Aguri and Makoto watched as the blonde begin to wake up. Regina groaned and slowly opened her eyes, blinking a couple times to adjust to the light. She looked to her left to find her friends' eyes watching her in hope and worry.

"What-.." she began but trailed off when she laid eyes on Mana.

Her girlfriend was a wreck, her hair was a mess from ruffling it in anger and sadness and her eyes were slightly red and puffy from crying a lot earlier. Regina looked to her friends for answers. She tried to push herself to sit up but winced and Rikka motioned her not to.

"What is going on?" she whispered.

"You don't remember?" Aguri asked.

Regina shook her head. Rikka, Alice, Aguri and Makoto looked at each other with worry.

"You were attacked," Makoto explained, "we don't know who hurt you."

"To explain this," Rikka said as she pointed at the sleeping girl, "she was a wreck the whole time."

Regina frowned as she looked at Mana. She must not have been taking care of herself while she was out, based on what their friends were saying. She ran her fingers through Mana's hair, being careful not to catch any knots and wake her up. Footsteps could be heard approaching the room in the hallway, the five girls turned their heads to see Mana's parents, Rikka's mom and Aguri and Regina's dad entering the room with food.

"Regina-!" the former King started but was cut off by Regina shushing him.

He looked at her with a questioning expression before noticing Mana sleeping next to her. He nodded.

"Glad to see that you're awake Regina." Mrs Hishikawa smiled. "Are you in any pain or discomfort?"

"Only when I push with my wrist and move too much." Regina replied.

"I see, well, that's normal for your injures."

Regina didn't listen to Mrs Hisikawa, her eyes were glued on her girlfriend. Regina would have to have a talk with her when she wakes up.

"Did she eat?" Regina asked, switching her gaze to Alice.

"I'm afraid not.." Alice shook her head. "She refused to eat or drink anything."

Regina stared at Mana once again. She would have to have a huge talk with her when she wakes up. Regina shifted to her right, making room for the sleeping girl. Mana's dad carefully lifted the sleeping girl into his arms, Mana's head fell to the left to rest in the man's shoulder. Her dad laid the girl down onto the open space beside the blond, Regina lifting the blanket to put it down again on the two young teens. Mana let out an unconscious groan and moved closer to Regina as she wrapped her good arm around the magenta-haired girl. Regina smiled and laid down, being careful to not disturb her injuries and her girlfriend.

The young teens' friends and parents smiled as Regina closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep. The adults left the room first, then Aguri and Makoto. Rikka smiled again as she stole one last look at the sleeping couple before turning the light to dim and following Alice out.

Mana awoke about ten minutes before visiting hours were over to someone special running their fingers through her bangs. Mana's eyes locked eyes with beautiful blue ones.

"Regina!" she exclaimed, shooting upright.

"Hey." Regina smiled.

Mana flipped onto her left side, wrapping her arms around the blonde in the process. Regina frowned as she saw a tear slide down Mana's cheek, she wiped it away before kissing her girlfriend's head.

"No more crying." Regina said, frowning.

"I'm sorry," Mana apologized, " I was just so scared! I was going to go look for you and the next thing I know you were in the room, injured and-"

Regina silenced the rambling girl with a kiss, Mana's eyes widened but soon closed as she kissed her lover back. Regina pulled the magenta-haired girl into a loving embrace before once again kissing her head.

"It's alright," Regina gently rubbed Mana's arm, "I'm alright, everything's alright."

Mana's eyes began to water again. Regina frowned as the girl buried her face into chest, sobbing quietly. Regina moved her hand to her girlfriend's back and began to gently rub her back in a soothing way.

"It's okay Mana," Regina said softly, "I'm okay."

Neither girls noticed their friends watching the touching scene in the doorway, sad that she had to ruin the moment, Rikka entered the room.

"Visiting hours are over," she stated, "we have to leave now."

Mana shook her head in protest and let out an annoyed groan, causing the five girls to giggle.

"Don't be so grumpy," Aguri said, "you can come see her tomorrow, besides, your hungryman sub is getting cold."

Mana groaned again and shifted into a more comfortable position, Regina booped her nose.

"Go home and get some rest Mana," she demanded, "you can come back tomorrow."

"Can't I just sleep here with you?" Mana asked.

"This bed isn't all that comfortable."

"I can sleep on the floor then."

"That would be less comfortable!"

The two lovers stared at each other before Mana sighed, Regina did a victory fist pump. The magenta-haired girl grabbed her bookbag and jacket before giving Regina a goodbye kiss. Regina smiled and waved at her girlfriend and friends as they left.

"Rikka," Mr Kido called, "what does WHMIS stand for?"

"Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System." Rikka answered.

"Correct."

Mr Kido checked something off on his clipboard, then turned to the next page.

"Mana," he said, "give me a chemical property."

No response. Mr Kido and the class looked towards Mana's desk, but said girl was not in her seat.

"Where is Mana?" Mr Kido asked as he turned to Rikka and Makoto.

"I don't know," Makoto said, "she was with us at break wasn't she?"

Rikka nodded. "This is weird, she never skips class."

The students looked at each other in confusion while Mr Kido sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. Before Mr Kido could say anything, a certain brown haired student bursted into the classroom.

"Sensei!" he cried.

"Takuya, where were you-"

"That's not important!" Takuya interrupted his teacher. "Mana got into a fight!"

"What!?" the class exclaimed.

"Where is she!?" Mr Kido demanded.

"The courtyard!"

Mr Kido and Takuya raced out of the room with Rikka and Makoto in pursuit, they raced through the halls and down the stairs. Mr Kido and the students stopped cold in their tracks when they saw the chaos that was happening. Mana and kneeling on one knee while holding her right upper arm, gritting her teeth in pain. She was cornered by three male students from another school. One of them had what looked like a small metal pipe.

Raquel and Davi flew out from behind Rikka and Makoto, they turned into phones and Rikka and Makoto transformed into Cure Diamond and Cure Sword.

"Hey!" Cure Sword shouted as her and Cure Diamond raced over to aid their wounded friend.

The three students' expressions changed from smug to fear when they saw the two Precure members running at them. They tried to run but Cure Diamond froze the ground under them and they slipped. The two Precure members had the students pinned down.

Mr Kido and Takuya kneeled down beside Mana, Mr Kid placed his hand on her back.

"Are you alright Mana?" he asked, concern evident in his voice.

"Y-Yeah.." Mana stuttered.

Mr Kido looked to Takuya.

"Go get the school counselor and the nurse." he demanded, Takuya instantly obeyed and ran back into the building.

Cure Diamond glared at the three students, she had one of them on the ground, with the left side of his face pressed against the pavement and his right arm pinned behind him. Cure Sword had the second one pinned down as well, but she had her right knee on his back and both his arms pinned beside his sides. The other one was laying on the ground, too scared to move.

"What are your names?" Cure Diamonds demanded.

None of them answered. This made Cure Diamond angrier.

"What are your names!?" she repeated but harsher.

"Goro Genkei." the one Cure Diamond had pinned said.

"Haruki Genkei." the one Cure Sword had pinned answered.

"A-Arata Daki." the scared one said.

Cure Diamond and Cure Sword looked at each other then looked at Mr Kido. Mr Kido looked at Mana.

"What happened?" he asked. "Who started the fight?"

"I was heading to class with Takuya and I heard them talking." Mana explained.

"What were they talking about?"

"What they did to Regina."

Mana's eyes narrowed as she glared at the three students. Mr Kido and the two Precure members' eyes widened.

"Go on." Mr Kido said.

"Takuya and I were going to tell the principal but they found us." Mana stated. "Apparently they were targeting all of us."

Mana looked at Cure Diamond and Cure Sword when she spoke. Cure Sword returned her attention to the one she had pinned.

"Why were you targeting us?" she asked.

Haruki squirmed beneath her.

"Because you're all traitors!" he exclaimed. "You befriended an enemy!"

Mana clenched her fists as he went on to say how Regina was evil and how she was tricking them. She saw Takuya return to them with Mrs Amari and Mrs Fukuhara.

"That girl shouldn't be alive!" Haruki declared.

"Enough!" Mana screamed.

Haruki went silent, everyone's eyes were on Mana, whose expression had darkened.

"If Regina was tricking us and pretending to be nice we would know," Mana said as she stood up, "We're not stupid. After everything she has done for everyone, helping us save everyone when we are called for duty, she risks her life for you and you say she hasn't had a change of heart!?"

Mana was beyond furious. After everything that her girlfriend had done, these three boys still thought she was evil. What was wrong with them? Mana inhaled.

"You three couldn't be even more of a disappointment." she stated.

Mana exhaled. Mrs Amari placed her hand on the magenta-haired girl's left shoulder and guided her back towards the school. Mr Kido had sent Takuya back to class. Mrs Fukuhara stepped forward.

"You boys are in a lot of trouble." she said. "This school's principal has already contacted the police, I'm sure the officers will be glad to haul you to the station."

The three students looked down in shame, Cure Diamond and Cure Sword just glared at them.

"I trust that you both will make sure these three will stay put?" Cure Sword asked.

The two adults nodded in response. Cure Diamond and Cure Sword reverted back into their civilian forms and made their way back into the school.

"Well," Mrs Amari said, "nothing is broken but you have some nasty bruising on your abdomen and your arm."

Mana sat on one of the beds in the nurse's office, the same one she was forced to rest in by Aguri when Mana overworked herself and ended up with a fever. Rikka and Makoto were waiting for the nurse to finish checking their friend.

"I'd rather not see that side of you again," Makoto commented, "it was scary."

Rikka agreed. "Yeah it was."

Mana looked at her two friends, both of them were grinning like idiots. Mana smiled.

"I can be scarier." she said.

"Wait really!?" Makoto gasped. "How scary?"

"Mana, when you try to be scary you always end up laughing." Rikka smirked.

"Well trying counts, doesn't it?" Mana pouted.

Mrs Amari smiled as she listened to the three teens speak, the woman looked out the window to see a police car and two officers getting the attackers into the vehicle. She frowned, but smiled again when she heard laughter.

"Alright you three," she said, "you best be on your way. You don't want to keep Regina waiting, do you?"

"No ma'am."

Mana, Rikka, and Makoto waved goodbye and walked out of the room.

Mana arrived at the hospital around 20 minutes after she, Rikka, and Makoto parted ways. Mrs Hishikawa smiled and greeted Mana before she moved on to her next patient. When she entered Regina's hospital room, she was met by a worried frown from her girlfriend.

"You were attacked?" Regina asked, her voice shaking with worry and sadness.

Mana sighed and sat down on the edge of the hospital bed as Regina made room for her.

"Yes," Mana confirmed, "but it wasn't as bad as what you got."

Regina's eyes began to water, what would she have done if Mana ended up as bad as her? Or worse? The magenta-haired girl frowned and gently wiped her lover's tears away and pulled her into a loving embrace.

"Hey," Mana said, "I'm okay."

She smiled as Regina looked up at her.

"Those guys won't hurt us anymore." Mana stated. "The police got them."

"Good." Regina smiled.

Mana and Regina continued to hold each other, as they waited for their friends to arrive. They were going to have pizza tonight.
