Galaxy: Okay. Gotta get this done. (plays Heisei Kamen Rider Opening Medley) Hmm… ooh, idea for a superhero crossover! (starts typing quickly)
Harumi: (lands as her alter ego, Aquarius) While Miss Galaxy is preparing a special event, I shall assist her in starting this chapter. (waves her wand and creates a water background with the Disclaimers)

1290 ~ Zodiac Warrior ~ 1290
Harumi was in her bed and still asleep, but she woke up to the smell of pancakes and smiled softly. "Big sis must be making the pancakes today." She slowly got out of bed and walked downstairs.
Her older sister, Asuna, was flipping the pancake in the frying pan as she looked over and saw Harumi. "Good morning, Harumi-san."
"Morning, Asuna." Harumi hugged her big sister before she took a seat, spreading butter and pouring honey over her pancakes. "Let's eat!" She took a bite of the breakfast and smiled a little. "Are there blueberries in the pancakes?"
"Yep. Just like you love it." Asuna smiled at her.
Harumi nodded before she looked at the table thoughtfully.
Asuna took notice. "What's wrong?"
The younger blunette sighed softly. "What do you do when your best friends are tasked with an important mission and you want to help them, but you don't have the power to?"
Asuna thought it over. "Well, I'd help them either way. It doesn't matter that I don't have a power like theirs, but it does matter what I choose to do and who I choose to protect."
Harumi thought it over and nodded, smiling slightly as she held the Aquarius Crystal in her hand.

Chapter 4: The Cure of Tranquility! Cure Aquarius is Born!
At the Milky Way Kingdom, Eclipse was glaring at Lacerta. "You should not have attacked so rashly, Lacerta. If Cure Virgo is not the leader of the team, they will easily fall apart."
Lacerta kept her head down as she nodded. "Yes, sir."
Lupus frowned slightly as he walked out of the room, heading down the hall of the castle to his ally's room. "Cetus."
A man with a deep purple mess of hair, dark purple eyes, a muscular body, and a dark purple bodysuit looked at him. "I guess it's my turn to fight the Cures, huh?"
Lupus nodded and flicked a Kurohoshi card to him. "Follow our Lord's plan."
Cetus smirked and teleported away, a bit of water left behind.
At Ryuuseizaka, Harumi wore her school uniform as she joined the group for the class, sitting down in her seat and keeping her hands folded in her lap.
Airi leaned over to her. "Hey hey, Rumi-chan! I heard we're gaining popularity among the kids as Pretty Cures!"
Harumi smiled at Airi. "That's fantastic, Ai-chan. I'm glad for you."
"Stand!" Suddenly, the class president called the class to attention as they all stood.
"Bow!" The group bowed as the teacher, Mr. Kurosaki, walked into the room.
"Be seated!" The class sat down, Harumi looking at the teacher with rapt attention.
Mr. Kurosaki smiled at the group. "Everyone, Ms. Hagoroma has an announcement."
Emica Hagoroma stood up, sounding slightly nervous. "The Science Club has been nominated as a contender in the district regionals this weekend."
Everyone clapped happily for Emica as she sat down.
"District Regionals! By the stars, I hope they win!" Airi cheered happily.
Mr. Kurosaki chuckled lightly and smiled at Airi. "As do we all, Ms. Hoshinaka."
Harumi smiled as well, but couldn't stop feeling like something bad was gonna happen.
Eye-catch: Airi, Harumi, Kaoru, Tsukasa, and Orion are seen spinning around as Lepus and Vulpeculos jump by their feet before the heroes change into their respective forms.
That Saturday, Harumi was wearing her casual clothing as she slowly walked down the street, her hand around the Aquarius Crystal in her pocket.
Airi was heading down the street from a different direction, humming a song to herself before she smacked into someone. "Kyah!" She hit the ground and held her forehead in pain. "Ow ow ow…"
"Oh, I'm sorry. Are you alright?" An unfamiliar voice spoke up as a hand was extended to Airi.
She took it and stood up, nodding slightly. "Yeah. Thank you…" She trailed off as she got a look at the man who she had bumped into.
Eclipse smiled warmly at his daughter, glad for the disguise he had taken up, which was that of a young man around Airi's mother's age with black hair, fair skin, a black suit with a red shirt under the jacket, and black loafers.
His eyes remained as their twinkling blue innocence, which Airi took notice of. "Those eyes…"
She flashed back to her memories of her father, seeing identical blue eyes, and remaining still in confusion and wonder.
He tilted his head curiously. "Are you okay?"
She snapped out of her thoughts. "Oh yeah. I'm okay. Sorry for freezing like that, but… you reminded me of my dad."
He smiled at her. "Really? Where is your father?"
She looked down sadly. "He died when I was five… in a really big fire…"
His eyes widened in shock as he remembered flames rising up and a black figure emerging, stumbling away and holding his head slightly.
She ran to him. "Are you okay?!"
He felt the memory fade and looked at her, nodding slightly. "I'm fine."
"Airi!" Harumi suddenly ran up and saw the disguised Eclipse, blinking slightly.
Airi helped the man to his feet and smiled. "At least you're okay." She gave him a big smile.
He chuckled and smiled back, nudging her towards Harumi. "You'd better go to your friend. See you later." He turned and walked off, smirking to himself. 'She's grown into a beautiful young woman. Airi…'
Harumi frowned slightly and shook her head. "That was weird…"
Airi nodded slightly before she got a call from Tsukasa and the others. "Hello? EH?! Kurohoshi at the Science Club District Regionals?! On my way!" She grabbed Harumi's hand and pulled her behind quickly.
At the regionals, Cetus was laughing as he held a lifeless, starless Emica in his hand. "Man, science is a bore! I can't wait to destroy it!" He tossed Emica to the side.
Lepus poofed into her human form and caught Emica. "Gotcha!" She slid on the ground slightly.
Vulpeculos ran forward, also in his human form, and he rammed into the Kurohoshi but got knocked back.
Orion slashed at the Kurohoshi and jumped away from a fist trying to knock him out.
Kaoru had managed to get everyone to safety with Tsukasa's help and she saw Airi and Harumi come in. "Airi! Let's transform!"
"Right!" Airi held up her wand, as did Kaoru.
(Insert Color Charge Instrumental)
In a pink and yellow void, the Virgo and Leo Zodiac Wands spun around each other until Airi and Kaoru grabbed them, donning light pink and orange gowns. "Zodiac Wand!" They drew a heart and star respectively that both glew before they smiled. "Pretty Cure, Let's Blast Off!" They held the wands up as they shot fireworks off that exploded into the shape of their Zodiac formations in the stars before Airi flew through it, doing various twists and winking at the camera, stars forming around her arms and causing bracelets to appear with flowy arm warmers, before she twirled around and ribbons wrapped around her legs, forming her shoes.
Kaoru winked and fought a bit before spinning as a two-piece dress formed on her body, the bottom half being long and flowy and the top half being a yellow and orange ombred and angled top.
They moved from one star to the next as they gained their respective accessories, a pair of wings on their dress tops, and they blew a kiss each, causing their lips to be glossed and their hair to grow longer and change as a pair of stars with Virgo and Leo's symbol appeared on each pair of wings.
The pink and yellow void changed to a new void with stars as they twirled around, Airi grabbing a star crown with a bow and placing it on her head before she held out her arms in an embracing way while Kaoru twirled around, lionlike ears and a tail appearing before she played an air guitar. The Zodiac Wands landed in sparkly bags by their left side as both girls landed.
"The virgin's pure heart! Cure Virgo!" Cure Virgo moved her hands, pink sparkles flying from them as she blinked her blue eyes and posed Sailor Moon style.
"The lion's pride! Cure Leo!" Cure Leo moved her hands, yellow sparkles flying from them as she grinned and posed Sailor Jupiter style.
(End instrumental)
The two Cures landed by Orion and Vulpeculos, readying themselves as the Kurohoshi rounded on them. "KURO!"
Leo smirked lightly. "Bring it, you big black blob!"
The Kurohoshi closed its eyes and grey specks flew out of its body, landing and forming humanoid creatures. "Grey! Grey! Grey!"
Virgo jumped in surprise. "Eh? What? What?"
Orion looked around. "Greyhoshis!"
The minions charged forward and attacked the team with everything, as the trio fought back.
Cetus laughed brightly as he watched the three get knocked around. "What a bunch of wimps! And I thought the Cures were supposed to be tough!"
Harumi watched the group and tensed a little bit, her face becoming determined before she ran forward, abandoning all caution.
"Harumi!" Tsukasa tried to go forward.
Harumi didn't listen and charged into the fray, screaming as she knocked down Greyhoshis left and right.
"Rumi!" Virgo looked at her blunette friend in surprise.
Harumi kept fighting, tears falling as she got hit again and again, but kept going. "It doesn't matter… that I'm powerless… I'm going to fight… fight for my family… my friends… I'll fight for everyone!"
Cetus watched her with an amused smirk. "Does that honestly give you pathetic little hope?"
Harumi gritted her teeth. "It does give me hope… and… it always will!" She punched a Greyhoshi and at that moment, a light surrounded her.
Cetus looked in shock. "What?!"
The heroes were surprised as well.
Harumi watched her Crystal float up and change into a Zodiac Wand, the colors being blue and teal. "Amazing…" She slowly reached out and gently took the Wand in her hand, glowing brightly.
(Insert Color Charge Instrumental)
In a blue void, the Aquarius Zodiac Wand spun around until Harumi grabbed it, donning a light blue gown. "Zodiac Wand!" She drew a circle that glew before she smiled. "Pretty Cure, Let's Blast Off!" She held the wand up as it shot a firework off that exploded into the shape of her Zodiac formation in the stars before she burst through it, moving her arms fluidly and smiling at the camera, water forming around her arms and causing fancy gloves to appear with small, armless sleeves before she twirled around and water swirled around her legs, forming her boots.
She smiled like the Mona Lisa and rode a wave before spinning as a two-piece dress formed on her body, the bottom half being short and poofy with a watery vibe and the top half being a blue ombred top with pink highlights.
She glided across from one star to the next as she gained a pearl necklace, a pair of wings on her dress top, and she grazed her lips, causing her lips to be glossed and her hair to grow longer and become wavy, the color changing to lavender with a blue ombre as a star with Aquarius's symbol appeared on the wings and her boots gained small fins.
The blue void changed to a new void with stars as she twirled around, taking a mermaid-like crown and putting it on her head before placing her hands on her chest. The Zodiac Wand landed in a sparkly bag by her left side as she landed with her feet together in a ladylike fashion.
"The water bearer's tranquility! Cure Aquarius!" Cure Aquarius moved her hands, blue sparkles flying from them as she beamed and posed in a style reminiscent to Sailor Uranus.
(End instrumental)
Virgo smiled widely. "Sparkle-tastic!"
Leo grinned as well. "Cure Aquarius!"
Aquarius looked at herself in awe. "I'm… a Pretty Cure…?" She smiled lightly.
"KUROHOSHI!" The monster swung its fist at her.
"Watch out!" Orion shouted.
Aquarius took a stance and rocketed off, riding a stream of water as she yelped. "Wh… what the?! I'm surfing?!" She wobbled as she kept going before regaining her balance and smiling. "Okay, I think I got this." She rode her wave around the Kurohoshi while manipulating the water to wash away the Greyhoshis.
Virgo smiled at her new teammate. "Thanks!"
Leo grinned. "Now go get the big guy!"
Harumi nodded with a determined smile.
"KURO!" The monster swung its fist at her, but she dodged it, moving fluidly as she dodged each attack, even backflipping over a swipe, her back arching perfectly before she landed on a water stream and soared above the Kurohoshi. "Warriors of darkness and despair shall never win against warriors of light and hope!"
Her star shone brightly as she gathered a bunch of water into her hands. "Pretty Cure!" She formed a harp with her water and strummed it, a soothing tune coming from the strings. "Aquarius Tranquil Pulsar!" She made a blue wave fly at the Kurohoshi and envelope it in a blue light.
"Beautiful…" The Kurohoshi exploded into blue smoke and the purified star was revealed, flying back to Emica and returning to her as she woke up.
Cetus watched from above, scoffing a little bit. "Looks like I underestimated them. No matter. I'll remember this!" He teleported away as the room was returned back to normal in a soft glow of light.
Later that night, the team celebrated on the roof of the building as they were happy.
"We got our three girls together! Sparkle-tastic!" Airi hugged the two humanized fairies joyfully.
"Now we just have to worry about bringing Tsukasa back as a Cure." Kaoru pointed out.
Harumi was examining the mark as they spoke. "I've never seen anything like this. It's very interesting." She brought her fingers close and suddenly yanked them back as the mark started glowing. "What the?!"
Tsukasa screamed in agony, holding her neck in pain.
"Tsukasa!" Orion grabbed Tsukasa and held her. "Hang in there!"
Tsukasa whimpered slightly before she passed out, the mark stopping its glow.
"What happened?!" Airi shouted in concern.
Harumi ran over and checked Tsukasa's neck, noticing her veins darkening. "It must have released a toxin poisonous enough to corrupt her body from transforming. The cancellation of her powers was just the beginning. If this mark isn't removed soon, she could die."
Everyone turned pale at Harumi's implications. This could prove to be a tough battle…
