Hey there all you readers. Sorry for the wait. Seeing as it's the end of the school year, I have had a lot of things going on! As a side note, with summer coming, I will be updating more often. Thanks and please review to let me know how I'm doing! I don't want to ask for a certain number of reviews before I update! The usual disclaimer.

Opening: Love and Joy

Episode Title: Fresh-catch! Startling Discoveries!

Last time: "Let me go!" Mayne said, struggling.

"No!" The boy said angrily, "You have the Heart Shards!"

"What are you talking about?" Mayne cried angrily.

The boy stopped and turned around, an angry look on his face.

"Why don't you, you caused all this!" The boy said. He paused and a look slid over his face, like he had realized something, "Oh." He said

"Heart Shards?" Mayne murmured weakly, opening her hand to gaze at the purple fragments of crystal.

The boy sighed, "Heart Shards, which form Heart Fragments, which form a Heart Jewel, capable of defeating anything and anyone. Whoever has one is nearly impossible to stop in their mission."

"Manye-chan! Don't go with him!" Chay shouted, struggling as Peach held on to her, "Not after what happened last time!" Chay struggled, tears falling down her face. Mayne turned to look at her, sadness lingering in her eyes. A hard resolve was quickly replacing it.

Chay broke free of Peach, running towards the swirling, angry wall of energy. As she got close to it, another, stronger wave exploded out, sending her flying in the opposite direction.

Tart struggles to hold onto the green sphere, which was tugging away from him. He couldn't hold onto it well, almost as if it was covered in a slippery material. It broke free, and flew towards Chay. In mid-flight, the green sphere hit her straight in the chest, and seemed to dissolve into her. She became enveloped in a white light.

Chay found herself floating in a glowing place, and she wasn't sure where she was exactly.

"You're in the world of dreams," a soft voice whispered.

"What? Who are you?" Chay stuttered. An image popped into existence, floating in the space beside her. It showed the scene she had just been in.

"As I said, this is the world of dreams," the voice whispered again, "You came here when the pure Heart Fragment hit you. You have two options. Help your friend or be forgotten."

"Be forgotten? What do you mean?"

"I am told this place is linked to something called the Time Stream, which goes everywhere and anywhere you wish it to. If you make the wrong decision here, you could and will be thrown into it and locked in, so you can never leave."

"Oh," Chay murmured, not liking the thought of being stuck in the Time Stream forever, "What should I do to help Mayne?"

"You already know the answer," the voice said, vanishing and leaving her alone. Chay wondered what the voice had meant, and suddenly she knew.

"Select! Pretty Cure!" Chay said, a circular pink compact in her hands. Two rings of multicolored jewel were embedded in its surface. Taking the compact into one hand, she ran a finger around the jewels, stopping at a lime green one, and then jumping over to a sky blue. Her clothes disappeared, replaced with a shimmering, glowing, soft dress of sorts.

She tossed the compact over to her other hand, making lime green bangles appear around her wrists. She tossed it back to the first hand, and a white sleeveless top accented with lime green appeared. Next, she flipped it to her feet, bouncing it between her feet twice, making white knee-high boots with green trim and a white, green and lime green ruffled skirt appear.

She bounced the compact on her head, and her hair lengthened and straightened, falling to her belly button in silver waves. She caught the compact in her hands, and a lime green butterfly clip appeared, along with green earrings.

She set the compact at her waist, tapping it once. A multicolored, beaded string wrapped around her waist, as the compact sealed itself into a pink container.

She twirled and struck a pose, "Protector of the Light!"

She changed her pose and winked, saying "The tartness of excitement! Cure Lime!"

The white light vanished, leaving her standing on the ground back in the real world. The four Fresh Cures gasped. Chay/Lime marveled at her outfit, but snapped to attention as more black energy twisted around the clearing.

Lime tensed, and then jumped as high as she could.

"Lime Revolution!" she cried, spinning madly as she fell back to earth. Lime green energy swirled around her.

She landed on top of the wall of black energy, both colors mixing violently and exploding outwards. Using the last bit of energy from the attack, she bounced away, landing next to the four other Cures.

"Well, this is a surprise," Berry said.

"Most definitely," Lime responded. She turned back to the two people in front of them. Mayne was arguing fiercely with the boy. Suddenly, Mayne drew back, shaking her head angrily. The boy's face contorted into something fierce, and he grabbed Mayne by the wrist, disappearing along with her.

Three purple crystals glittered as they fell to the ground slowly. Mayne must have dropped them in surprise when they vanished.

The black energy was dissipating, and Lime caught the crystals. A few words popped into her head.

"Heart Box!" she said. An ornate golden box appeared in front of her and opened, revealing seven slits and ten circular indentations in the box. The three purple crystals lifted from Lime's hand and fitted themselves into three of the indentations. The box chimed softly, shutting itself and disappearing.

As the five Cures' transformations dissolved, Chay sank to her knees, and then the ground as she fainted.

"She must be worn out from exertion," Inori said.

"Where should we take her? We can't leave her here," Love asked. A piece of paper drifted down, and Love caught it, reading what was on it, "Well, I guess that answers the question!" She laughed, showing it to the group.

~.:Chay + Mayne's Apartment:.~

Chay opened her eyes slowly, and found herself on a couch tucked under a blanket. Looking around, her mind wandered for a while, until she remembered the events of the past day. Sitting up, she ran a hand through her hair, checking what time it was on a nearby clock. It was almost midnight; she had been asleep for a while.

Sighing, she fell back on a pillow, curling into a ball.

"Mayne. Why did you leave me again?"

Please review, as I said. If you want to be ahead of the game, go and read my other story while you are waiting for an update. A lot of things will make sense.

Until next time, have fun :D
