In Airu Suzaki's eyes, there was no such things as monsters. Digital, magical or otherwise.

In her own little world, those beings could be someone's best friend, possibly even lovers. Of course, the trapper was currently focused on other things at the moment.

"What do you think, Cure Heart?" she inquired to the doll at her feet, placing it in her lap. "Do you think Mirai and Riko will get to stay together as a couple?"

The doll doesn't respond, but that was to be expected. It was a doll after all. It would be odd and creepy if it were to do such a thing. But I guess it would be kind of cool if it could.

She let her focus turn to her laptop, which was currently showing a pair of girls (the titular Mirai and Riko) at the beach. Of course, one of the villains (probably the bat this time) would come upon them in search of a magical stone in the hope of it being an emerald. Then it turn out to be not and the main heroes would save the day through the power of their 'totally-not-love' for each other.

But before Airu could get to see this predestined outcome, the doorbell rang and was followed by a shriek of pain.

"Airu Suzaki, how many times have I told you to not leave your jacks out!" a voice called out, not at all happy with our hero. "Now come pick them up!"
"Yes mom." Airu shouted back and closed her laptop, quickly scrambling her way over to the entrance. But not before setting her Cure Heart figurine down where it wouldn't be crunched. While she could easily replace if such a thing were to happen, that one wouldn't have the same sort of memories this one had.

There, a woman in what looked to be her mid thirties stood, mumbling curses towards the pink jacks laying on the floor. For today, she had gone with black blouse with a white undershirt and a black pencil skirt. A pair of pumps comfortably held her feet in, while a scrunchie held her long flowing black hair in a bit of a ponytail. Of course, Airu was more focused on actually scooping her jacks up than her mother's appearance.

"At least I know they work."

"What was that, honey?" Mrs Suzaki inquired and picked some jacks up, dropping it into her daughter's hands. But all that got her was a nod.

"Oh, nothing." Airu answered as she slipped her jacks into her hidden skirt pocket. Her attention then turned to the door, which she pulled open to reveal a girl. "Uh, can I help you?"

The girl in question was dressed in rags, her skin almost translucent and wrinkled. The head seemed to hang sideways with visible handprints on the neck. Everything on her was quite damp and she seemed to shiver a little. What did remain of her black hair seemed Even then Airu could quite easily see that there was no sign of one.

"Airu Suzaki, you have been chosen." the girl announced and grabbed hold of Airu's hand. While the teenager made an attempt of breaking free, a slight tap from her mother brought an end to that.

Sachiko: Oh my.

Chaos nodded in agreement. After, the two turned their attention to the camera.

Sachiko: See you January 6th!
