I really don't know what to put in here anymore other than that this whole series is kinda ...experimental. I am aware that its not really Precure-like but yeah...it's fun to write and that's important and If it turns out to be a terrible-story at least we can laugh about it later~
So enjoy~

Being in prison was a terrible experience.

Masato hated it.

He simply loathed it. Despised it.

The door of his cell was opened and he was, with some other fellow prisoners, led to visiting area. Masato sat down on one of the chairs as he slowly saw some people coming in. Parents, wives, husbands, friends, sons and daughters.

''Hey dad,'' Masato found himself smiling as he saw his own daughter calmly walk in as she sat herself down on another chair.

''Miku! I'm so glad your here. I missed you. How's your mother doing? And Kaori?''

''They're all fine,'' Miku smiled mildly. After Masato had been sentenced to prison neither his wife nor other daughter, Kaori, wanted to visit him.

Only Miku did.

''I have some good news,'' He told the girl with an enthusiastic grin. Miku stared at him with quite some curiosity.

''Because of good behavior, they decided to release me in about three days!''

''Really?!'' Miku sprung up with teary eyes and would have embraced her father If there wasn't a glass wall separating them.

''Yes, but I'll be going to the big city. Away from Seinarushima to start a new live, find a job and maybe meet some new people,'' Masato confessed quite sadly.

''You mean you won't return home?''

''I'm sorry Mikky, but you know your mother won't let me return after what happened right?''

''Yeah I guess...but...'' Miku begun but fell silent. She didn't want her dad to go away, especially now he was released from prison. She wanted to be with him again.

Her mother was mostly away with her friends, working, and leaving Kaori to do the housework. Although not that the latter minded that. Kaori had always been more of a mommy-girl while Miku had always been a daddy-girl.

''Alright, Mikky. I'll try to talk to your mother one more time...just to say goodbye to her and Kaori,'' Masato had a gloomy look on his face but tried to cover it with a smile.

Op: 'Halloween Night' by Aya Ikeda

Episode 8: Aah! Miku's Parents are fighting?! Miku's choice!

''What are you doing here!? You're supposed to be locked away!'' Miku's mother, Kasumi, yelled when Masato had appeared in front of the door after three days.

''Kasumi, I just wanted to have a little chat.. If that's alright...''

''Did you escape to get revenge on us for informing the police!?'' She was slowly approaching hysteria as she yelled some...foul things at her ex-husband.

Kaori was sitting in the living room, trying to cover her ears. She didn't want to see him. She didn't want to hear him. She didn't want her father to be here.

Miku, on the other hand, went to the door, trying to calm down her mother and explaining why her father was here. Kasumi hesitantly had agreed to let him inside, for just a moment. However Kaori had immediately rushed to her and Miku's room and locked the door. Jacky had already been sleeping there but was awoken by Kaori's sobs.

''…So I just wanted to say goodbye to you and Kaori,'' Masato had concluded his story as he and Kasumi were sitting on the diner table.

''She doesn't want to see you. You know that, Masato.''

''I was drunk! I felt terrible but when I was in prison I've decided to change. I'm moving away from the island and try to look for a job. No more drinks for me!''

''Good luck,'' Was Kasumi's short answer. However it sounded quite sincere to Masato's ears.

''But I didn't know Miku was still visiting you every week. I knew she asked me and Kaori to visit,'' Kasumi continued. She crossed her arms and took a short glance at Miku, who was sitting on the couch pretending to watch the TV while actually listening to her parents.

Miku signed as she decided to stop pretending and walked to the diner-table, standing next to her father.

''Mom, can you give dad another chance, please?'' She asked. Kasumi had never Miku with such a serious and downright pleading face.

''I'm sorry, Masato. I just can't...'' She apologized while avoiding eye-contact. She couldn't forgive Masato. Not after all the mess he caused, while he did said he had changed. He apparently had quit drinking but Kasumi hadn't believed that totally. Before going to prison, he would have had a nervous breakdown If he didn't drink every few hours or so and when he did, he would often transform from a rather calm man to an aggressive beast, getting into fights with neighbors, friends and herself, often leading to paying hospital bills for the injured people and even the one casualty which had landed him into prison in the first place.

''I understand, Kasumi. Don't worry about it but...Is it alright If I keep contact with Miku?'' He asked with a wry smile. Kasumi took another good look at him. Masato's dark-purple hair looked very scraggly and he was noticeably pale compared to when she had last seen him. She then looked at Miku, still standing at her father's side with a small, meek grin.

''If she wants that. I'm glad she was able to forgive you. When are you leaving actually?''

''Tomorrow. The boat doesn't arrive until tomorrow, so I'm staying in a hotel tonight,'' Masato said, while he looked more like the animal which she had sent to prison, he had that same, old gentle voice and mannerisms.

''Will you be alright?'' Miku asked worriedly. She again shot a pleading look at her mother.

''Masato...you can stay here for tonight but you'll have to leave as soon as possible, alright?'' Kasumi actually immediately regretted her decision. She knew Kaori was terrified of Masato after she had saw him brutally assault a middle-aged man, who just happened to be walking down the same street as the family and had 'given him a funny look' according to Masato.

''No, Kasumi...'' Masato began but Miku gently slapped him on the shoulder as she embraced him with a huge smile.

''Thanks, mom!'' She cried as she let go of her father and embraced her mother next, who seemed quite surprised.

''Thank you so much. I'll just sleep on the couch and I won't cause any trouble. I promise it.''

''Miku won't c-come today'' Wakaba had said when she had gone to Yuina's house to make homework. The latter was quite surprised (or shocked) to discover that Wakaba was going to be held back a year which means she would be in Yuina and Miku's class after vacation.

''My grades were too l-low so I have to r-redo the same year.''

''But that's great! We'll be in the same class!'' Yuina seemed quite happy at his revelation as she hugged Wakaba, who was sitting on Yuina's bed, with Orlok and Larry sitting on her lap.

''Hey, let's not tell Miku and surprise her,'' Larry suggested with cheeky smile forming on his little face.

Wakaba had brought along her old note books so Yuina could take a look at the subjects of their next year, to the latter's surprise almost every assignment had a low score and was covered in a lot of red marker. She even saw a big, crude drawing of some ugly stick figure with 'Mr. Amano' written above it.

The tall girl looked quite embarrassed. She grabbed her notebooks and hid them from Yuina.

''I'm d-d-d-d-dumb, aren't I?'' She asked nervously and looked like she could burst into tears at any moment.

''Of course not. I'm not a model student myself actually,'' While Yuina was right and wasn't a model student, she did mostly manage to get okay scores.

''Miku is actually pretty good at some subjects. Miku and I will help you with studying, promise!'' Yuina smiled as she reassured the taller girl, who quickly found her own smile again.

Miku and her father actually had agreed to walk around the island, visit some shops and have some quality father-daughter time.

''Of course, I will send you a present now and then,'' Masato reassured her with a grin as Miku looked at some earrings. Despite her age, she actually already had two ear piercings on each ear since she was 12 or so. She had got them on a summer camp in sixth grade of elementary school.

''You like these, right?'' Masato asked as he pointed at the two ear piercings she had stared at with big eyes a few moments ago. They were quite small and black colored, with purple rings on them.

''They are kinda cool but so expensive. I'm saving up my pocket-money to buy them!'' She explained quite enthusiastically and hugged her father again. She really wanted him to stay.

''Your necklace is very pretty, Mikky.''

Miku touched her necklace, The Hollow Changer, and smiled. A lot of things had happened since she had last seen him. Miku really wanted to tell her father but decided against it.

''Oh, wow,'' She heard her father say out loud. He was staring at an used phone which was for sale. Miku's teacher, Ms. Morino, had the same one, which she would often use as a timer during Gym-class.

''I do need a Phone, maybe I'll buy this one. It's not that expensive,'' Masato mused as he looked at his small wallet, opening it slowly yet decided to not buy since he was afraid he might not have enough left for traveling and renting a house, or apartment, in the city.

Miku had decided to use her pocket-money to buy a new phone for her father. She might not be able to buy an expensive or even new one but would look for the best she could find. Since she stores were closing she decided to wake up early the next day and buy it before her father would leave, which apparently was around 10:00 AM, however she didn't say any word about it to her father.

It had to be a surprise.

The two had gone to a snack bar to eat diner after a fun afternoon. Since Masato had promised to avoid Kaori and after that they had try to walk as slowly as possible. Masato told Miku a few stories about what his life in prison was like (not happy, to say the least) and Miku in turn had told her father about school and about her new friends.

When they arrived back home, Kasumi and Kaori were in Kasumi's room watching something or her laptop'. Kaori had wanted to sleep with her mother today, however she had seemingly calm down a bit but still refused to face her father.

Miku and her dad had spent the whole night watching TV on the couch. Miku had eventually fallen asleep and started to snore quietly. Masato looked at his oldest daughter with a sad smile.

He would miss her so much. She had been so supportive of him even when he was still a stupid, raging alcoholic.

Thank god these days were over.

Tomorrow would be a fresh start.

The next morning Miku found herself lying on the couch. She looked around to found her dad already gone and she noticed a small note on the table.

[''Miku, I wanted to thank you for supporting me through all these times, You are the best daughter I could ever wish for and I've been a terrible father sometimes, toward you and Kaori. I'm going to change. I'll get a job and try to live a stable life this time.
When everything is alright again. I might even visit you sometime.
I love you so much and will always love you.

Love, Your Father

Ps. You might think this is silly but you are allowed to come with me If you want...'']

Miku had read the note out loud and started trembling. She shot a look at the clock on the wall. The clock read 9:00 AM which would mean her father wasn't gone yet and she still had time to buy a phone.

''Miku?'' Jacky appeared from behind the couch. Had she been there the entire time?

''No time!'' Miku immediately grabbed her coat (Jacky just barely managed to jump into the pocket) and her pocket-money which she had kept in a can and rushed to the store, as fast as her short legs were able to carry her.

She was in such a hurry that she didn't notice a figure following her.

Arriving at the store, she was able to buy quite a good-looking Phone. Kinda reminding Miku of Yuina's phone but only different in color. She didn't regret using her money for this in the least and when she saw it was already 9:33, she already had begun to race to the pier were the boat taking her father to the city would eventually arrive.

She ran and ran. Her legs began to hurt and she almost slipped a few times but managed to keep running.

She had to make it. She just had to.

Until Kuroneko jumped in front of her, causing Miku to painfully fall on the hard ground face-first, leading to a bloody nose and the phone fell in the air but Kuroneko managed to catch it.

''Uh-oh, you're so clumsy!'' The cat girl laughed while Miku grunted as she tried to stand up. Jacky had rolled out of her pocket and gasped when Kuroneko revealed a familiar needle.

''NONONO!'' Miku cried and dashed towards the cat girl, who already injected the phone and threw it in the air, causing it to transform into an Okinakuchi.

''That was...a present...for my father..''

''I know! Are you angry at me, witch?''

''I am,'' Miku groaned with a dangerous glow in her eyes as she grabbed her Hollow Changer.

''BOO BOO BOGEY! MONSTER CHANGE!''

''Oh! I like that fiery-passion!'' Kuroneko smiled as she hopped away from the Okinakuchi and into a tree, setting herself down to enjoy the show.

''Magical Spell, Potion with a strange smell! Cure Witch!'' Not once during Cure Witch's transformation she had cracked a small smile, still wearing her furious look as she spoke her introduction speech.

Witch pointed her staff at the Okinakuchi but couldn't even say one word before the creature suddenly turned around and began to sprint to the pier.

''Huh?...WAIT!'' Witch screamed as she ran after the creature. Kuroneko hopped from tree to tree in utter delight while seeing Witch furious state.

However Jacky was left behind. she looked around with a scared expression, gulped and began to roll to a different direction.

She had to find help!

When the Okinakuchi arrived at the pier, many people immediately started panicking and ran away. Some even jumped into the water.

Cure Witch managed to shield an old man who were about to be eaten by the Okinakuchi.

It only took a short while to notice Masato, who was standing completely still on the pier. He didn't move and didn't even looked that scared, just shocked and even more pale.

The Okinakuchi instinctively targeted Masato and tried to take a bit bite of his head. Masato still didn't move an inch when the big cellphone with razor-sharp teeth came towards him.

''DADDY!''

In a moment the world had come to a standstill for Witch. She felt despair couching its way to her heart. It hurt. It hurt really much. It was awful, unbearable.

''PRETTY CURE! WITCH CURSE!'' Witch screamed with tears streaming down her face and shaking with fear. The staff shot light at the Okinakuchi, making it stop in its movement and, to Witch's relief, slowly return back to the phone.

People were looking at her, some in amazement, some in confusion, some in awe and some even in fear.

''It's a hero!''
''Thank you so much, you saved us!''
''That was great!''
''What just happened?''

''Cure Witch?''

Cure Blood and Cure Wolf appeared with Orlok, Larry and even Jacky sitting on their shoulders. They looked quite worried at Witch, who still was crying.

''Are you heroes too!?''

''We are Pretty Cure!'' Cure Blood smiled when she noticed the crowd forming around them, the three stroke a pose, causing a lot of people to take a picture of them.

Masato was slowly coming back to his senses, he looked around and noticed the girl dressed in witch's clothing, who was holding a cellphone to her chest and sobbing quietly but tried to smile when pictures were taken of her.

She then noticed Masato staring and grinned but then hid her face behind her hat to prevent Masato from seeing her crying.

''We have to go now!'' Cure Blood announced as the Cures all jumped up real high, an ability that hadn't noticed before, and landed on a nearby roof. They transformed back. Wakaba immediately gave Miku a little push.

''Go a-ahead.''

Miku raced back to the pier.

Masato was still. He sat on a bench, looking quite shaken yet he seemed lost in thoughts.

''Dad!''

''Oh, Mikky!'' He looked quite surprised as he stood up and embraced his daughter.

''I guess you didn't come here because you want to come with me, right?'' Masato wore a serene smile on his pale face.

Slowly tears were already streaming down Miku's cheeks again. She shook her head while shaking uncontrollably.

She really wanted to go with her father, away from home but she couldn't...

She couldn't bear to leave her friends behind.

She couldn't bear to give up her powers and give up on helping Halloween World.

She had to stay.

For Now.

''I'm s-sorry, daddy!'' She blubbered as her father held her in a tight embrace.

''I understand, you have something you must do, right?''

She simply nodded as she saw that the boat had arrived.

''I have something for you!'' Miku gave him the phone, this face suddenly looked less pale and really lighted up.

''Thank you, Mikky! Now we can contact each other!'' He said quietly as he slowly let go of his daughter, who started to cry even more uncontrollably when Masato walked to the boat. Every step hurt Masato's heart.

He would miss her so much. She was such a good girl.

He smiled at the phone, definitely using it send her some messages from time to time.

As the boat slowly started to sail away, Masato started to wave at Miku, who tried her hardest to grin.

But after he had disappeared out of sight. She completely broke down, falling on her knees and blubbering while Yuina and Wakaba conformed her.
