"Hi ya! Take that!" Anika said, as she shot the ball towards the net. The goalie seen it coming and ducked, knowing by the speed it was Anika's.
"Yes! We won!" Emma cheered.
"Great shot Nika!" Rori said as the team surrounded Anika.
"Yeah! I love it when we win! We're champions!" said another girl.
"Yahoo! Three cheers for Anika!" said another. The team started cheering loudly as the spectators cleared out of the field.
"Congratulations Nika. You did great out there. I liked that last kick." Claire said as she made her way through the team to Anika.
"Hey! Claire! You were here? Awesome!" Rori said as she noticed Claire standing beside her.
"Yes, I came to watch Anika, and I don't regret it. Anika really is a star player." Claire said, smiling.
"Was there ever any doubt?" Emma said as the team and Claire laughed along with her.

"Can I try? Can I?" asked the little girl. An older boy was bouncing a soccer ball around on his knees.
"Yori, you can't do this. I know it. And if you can't do it, what's the point of trying?" The boy said as he narrowed his eyes. He hit the ball into the air then shot it in the net.
"Ha!" He said exuberantly. He started to bounce it again on his knees.
"Onii-chan! Don't be so mean!" Yori said as she ran away crying. The boy didn't stop to look and kept bouncing the ball.
Sukushi walked up to the boy named Ikuko. He stopped and looked at her and rolled his eyes.
"Halloween was months ago lady. Time to stop dressing for it." Ikuko said as he started bouncing the ball.
Sukushi raised her hand and pointed it at the ball. It flew from Ikuko and into her hand. She gripped it tightly and it popped. Ikuko looked around for his ball and then realized that Sukushi had taken it.
"Enough from you. Meiwaku! Now!" She called out. Sure enough, the Meiwaku came and went into Ikuko.
"-Waku!-" It cried as it started mowing down trees and other plants as it went off through the town.
(Eyecatch-Anika kicks a soccer ball and it flies with Lila on it. Lila and the ball crash into Cira and Ciro and a PCE logo appears on the screen as Anika and Claire pop in.)
"Onii-chan! Somebody help Onii-chan!" cried Yori.
"What was that?" Claire asked from the now empty soccer field. She looked the way the noise was coming from and seen a large amount of trees falling down.
"A…Nika? I think something's wrong. I heard a scream, and trees are falling down over there like crazy. We should go." Claire said as she pulled Anika along with her. They ran to the place the noise was coming from and seen a soccer ball Meiwaku stomping around and scaring all the people away.
"Oh great. I'm so tired, I can't do this now." Anika groaned. She went to sit on the ground when Cira and Ciro jumped out of their bags.
"You have to! Come on lazy, get up, get up, get up!" Cira said as she jumped on Anika.
"You have to protect these people!" said Lila as she popped out of Anika's bag.
"Fine. Soccer mayhem, here I come!" Anika said as she took Claire's hand.
"Pretty Cure Miracle Eclipse!" they yelled.
Red and Blue light surrounded them, and a new outfit appeared.
"The flaming heart of the sun, Cure Blaze!" said Anika.
"The shining heart of the moon, Cure Star!" said Claire.
"Together we are Pretty Cure!" they both said.
"With the power of light," said Cure Blaze.
"And the shine of our hearts," said Cure Star.
"We will restore the power of hope!" they both finished.
"Let's win this!" Cure Blaze said as she dove for the Meiwaku. She kicked it back and forth between the trees.
"Onii-chan! What happened to Onii-chan?" asked Yori as she ran up to the park. She was still crying as she seen what had happened to her brother.
"It's ok. We'll help him. Right Blaze?" Cure Star asked as she interrupted Cure Blaze kicking the Meiwaku around the park like a soccer ball.
"Yup. Let's do this for real!" She said as she stood in front of the Meiwaku and lifted her arms.
"NOOOO! Don't hurt Onii-chan! Please don't hurt him!" Yori cried, making Cure Blaze lowered her arms.
"Hmm… ok, I have an idea. Star, I need you. We're skipping a lot for this one." She said as Cure Star leaped over.
"Heart of the Sun, Flame!" said Cure Blaze as she drew half a heart with her free hand.
"Heart of the Moon, Shine!" said Cure Star as she drew the other half of the heart with her free hand.
"The heart of the sun," said Cure Blaze.
"And the heart of the moon," said Cure Star.
"Will eclipse the darkness!" they both said, freeing their hands, and pulling those arms back.
"Pretty Cure Heart Eclipse!" they yelled, pushing their arms out toward the heart. It exploded in red and blue light and hit the Meiwaku, causing it to disappear. In it's place, laid an Ikuko.
"Ikuko! Please wake up! Please Ikuko!" Yori cried as she held her brother. His eyelids fluttered, then they opened.
"Yori? What…happened?" Ikuko asked wearily.
"Ooh. After I left, when I came back, you were a monster. There was a flash of light then you went back to you. I'm so glad too. I don't want you to be hurt Onii-chan." Yori said as she hugged her brother and helped him up.
"Y-Yori… I'm… sorry. I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings. I'll let you play with me, and my new ball." Ikuko said as he laughed.
"Can we go get the ball now? I want to play with Ikuko!" Yori said as she and Ikuko left the park.
"Anika. Anika. Wake up Anika." Cira said as she jumped on Anika's sleeping head. Anika shot up.
"What? I'm tired…" Anika groaned as she went to lie back down.
"The Princess is in the Heart Garden." Cira said gravely.
Anika sat back up with wide eyes.
"What? How could that have happened?" She asked.
"I don't know. One thing I do know is she may need your help. You and Claire have to find the Princess of Miracles! Before it's too late!" Cira said as Anika snored. Cira sighed.
"Anika will never change…" Cira said as she hopped down off the bed, knowing she'd end up on the floor eventually if she stayed.
