Me:Alright boys, you know what to do!
Shouhei:Luckykillerchibi does not own the Pretty Cure series or franchise
Shouji:She does, however, own this fanseries and the characters in it
Me:Make sure the room is brightly lit and don't sit too close to the computer screen – now enjoy the fanfic!
We see a giant wheel spinning in the darkness – holding objects we can not make out. In front of it is two figures, their backs are to the audience as the are observing the spinning object before them, as if they're waiting for something
Watching and spinning
Watching and spinning
Watching and spinning
Until suddenly, inside the wheel, we see images – evil monsters, two boys, fortune telling cards and constellations, two brave young women standing up to the darkness.
Then, the wheel finally stops, and cards and pages scatter out in multiple directions from it along with 7 glowing orbs. Once the chaos ends, the wheel collapses in on itself as two little cell phone-like devices pop out from the center in front of the two figures
"It seems the Wheel has finally made its choice." the first figure stated blankly
"Let us hope it's the correct one then – for all our sakes." The second one replied fearfully, and the two slowly faded away.
Opening:Good Luck Futari wa Pretty cure – Miyuki Sawashiro and Rie Kugimiya
"And whether I came to love or hate, That I came to you was written by fate" – Laurence Hope
Episode 1: Destined to be? The warriors of fate are born!
[Somewhere in Santo, Japan
Welcome to Umehara City, a large bustling metropolis near the ocean and 3 trains away from its sister city Kamihachi. This fine area, along with having a lot of beach parties and shrines, is famous for its okonomiyaki, appreciation of the occult, and kind, loving citizenry.
"I FREAKING HATE HIM!"
…Okay, maybe not all of Umehara shares that trait.
Inside of Hiruko High school in class 1-A, we see a young man in an open black Gakuren with spiky blonde hair and sharp cerulean eyes currently narrowed into a glare stomp into the classroom, startling the poor students who were just momentarily at their desk cheerfully chatting away. He's followed by a girl in a black and white Seifuku who was practically his mirror image - save for the hair being long and straight. He seats himself next to him is a boy around the same age with soft, wavy auburn hair and wide brown eyes who gave a worried glance as the blonde continues to grumble and curse under his breath.
"W-what's wrong Shou?" The red-head stammered in small shy voice that somehow managed to lessen the other boy's glare a bit and empty the tension building around him
"It-" he began, only for his female-counter part to cut in as she took a seat behind him
"Shouji Otonashi, Who else?" she deadpanned, causing the blonde gaze to intensify up to heart stopping 1000%.
The red-head gave an almost exasperated sigh "A-again? What are you guys fighting about this time?"
The blondes glare went up another 1000% as he aimed it at the wall (and a few poor saps who were unlucky enough to be in his line of vision) "Damn prick sent a bunch of complaint forms about me to the office, and now rather than just giving me detention, they're making me help him out with his stupid odd jobs after school to give me a chance to 'Reflect on my action and learn to conduct myself like a proper student'!"
"Well, maybe if you didn't beat up those idiots from Susano, He wouldn't have anything to complain about to the principle!" The blonde girl countered jokingly, wagging a finger in a mock-scolding manner "Besides, you should be happy that they only gave you detention – you could have lost your position on student council for this, or worse!"
"Firstly – those idiots were harassing students who stayed behind for club, so technically; I was doing the school a favor" He growled, turning around so he could shift his gaze to the girl "secondly – if Saehara and them cared that much about my behavior, I'd of been kicked out a long time ago, and third – who the hell's side are you on Inori? Don't defend my mortal enemy so casually!"
the girl rolled her eyes at the blond boy "Being your twin doesn't automatically mean that I'm on your side Shouhei. Besides," she said, and got a starry-eyed look on her face as she stared off into some strange fantasy "I could never go against Our dear class-rep Otonashi, what with his kind, generous attitude, his unwavering dedication to the students – not to mention that glorious bod!"
Shouhei face palmed himself at his twins's behavior as she continued to ramble on while the auburn haired boy sweat dropped and tried to steer the conversation away from Shouji Otonashi 's "glorious bod"
"I just don't get why you guys don't get along?" he stated, earning a look from the two that nearly caused him to jump out of his seat "W-what I mean is, you're on student council and Otonashi's the class-rep, why don't you guys try working together or something? Plus, you have a lot in common-"
"DON'T COMPARE ME TO THAT BASTARD!" He yelled, causing both Inori and the red-head to flinch and the rest of the class to duck for cover under their desks. After calming down a bit, he removed his glasses and pinched the bridge of his nose "Sorry, he just…really pisses me off. Besides, we're nothing alike, why the hell should we get along."
Inori, recovering from the mini-heart attack her brother gave her, slyly quirked an eyebrow "You're both involved with student council in some way or form, you're both sports team captains – You with Archery and Otonashi with Judo, you're both the most sought out guys of Hiruko; you albeit for more…violent reasons, you both are the most high ranking students – You for academics while Otonashi's got athletics, you both have…interesting titles," she listed, and Shouhei's eye twitched at the last one "you both have the same Kanji in your first names; and you're always put together projects and stuff! Despite the fact you're completely opposites - you guys are practically twins!"
"Technically, we'd be triplets since you're already my twin." Shouhei muttered as he put back on his glasses "And so what if we're opposites always running to each other – what's you point?"
"My point is that you guys are destined to be!" The blond girl declared, gaining the attention of the entire classroom as she stood and pointed at her male mirror image "The fact you run into each other a million times a day for no good reason is enough to validate my point, and opposites do attract! For all you know, you guys could have even been lovers in a past-life or something!"
The boy then started to blush red with embarrassment (with some anger mixed in) at the comment.
"O-oi! D-don't say it like that!" he stammered "I get that enough of that from the fan clubs – I don't need to hear it from my own sister!"
"But you guys are always together or fighting with each other, it's like you're…" the blonde girl started to argue, the got a thoughtful look on her face "Hey Jun, what do you call people who like each other but are always arguing?"
"A married couple," The red-head answered, then laughed as he turned to Shouhei with a wire grin on his face "and she right; with the way you guys are always at each other throats – 'Lovers' describes you two just perfectly~. I'm actually shocked he hasn't proposed to you yet"
"See, Junny agrees with me!" she smirked "And let's not forget the school festival last year and that incident in PE where he-"
"Dammit, I said knock it of!" The blond boy yelled as he flushed even more "And Jun, don't encourage her!"
Then the classroom door opened and in walked three more students. One was a fairly tall boy with straight short black hair that was parted to the left and slanted hazel eyes, wearing his Gakuran fully buttoned up. Two A-typical school girls in the same seifuku as Inori were on either side of him, chatting about a certain foul-mouth hooligan who was just ten feet way from them, gritting his teeth as he tried to glare holes into the black-haired boy.
"But Otonashi, aren't you worried about being alone with Itoguchi – he's not called 'The four-eyed demon' for nothing!" the orange-haired girl on his left said
"She's right – I heard he once took out an entire gang with just a text book and his glasses case! He might try and kill you!" The spectacled brunette on right cried
Shouhei just sighed irritably while Inori's starry-eyed look returned
The black haired boy laughed and gave a warm smile that made the blonde's blood boil as he wave his hand dismissively at the two girls "Now now, there's no need to be so concerned for me, I'll be perfectly fine." He said as a rosy glittery aura started to surround him "And you shouldn't say such mean things about Itoguchi. He's probably a nice, harmless fellow, and all those rumors about him are most likely exaggerations."
Every girl in the class (along with Inori and the two girls beside him) immediately started swooning while Shouhei's eye twitched and Jun just sweatdropped
"Ahh, Class-rep Otonashi's such a nice person! He shouldn't even be around that punk Itoguchi!" one girl cried
"I know right! He acts like such a sweet guy - it's no wonder they call him The Magnificent Black Saint!"
The black haired boy then gave Shouhei a hidden smirk as he caught sight of him "Besides, I have 4 years of judo under my belt – If something does happens, I'm sure I'll be able to defend myself against him."
Shouhei immediate stood up "If you think you can take me – then try it you bastard!" he yelled as Jun and Inori tried to hold him back "You think you're so smart sending that complaint to the principle rather than taking me on yourself!"
"I'd agree with that statement if it wasn't for you grades." He countered as he shook his head, still smiling with that hidden smirk ever present "It's so sad to see such a smart student like yourself behave so terribly; especially with you being on student council and everything - I couldn't just sit there and let you get away with beating up those men. Besides, it's bad for you and the school's good name."
The girls swooned even more as Shouhei growled, then suddenly started smirking back "Well Shouji, if you were that concern about my behavior, why didn't you go crying to your Big Bro again like last time!"
Shouji's smile dropped, and he began giving Shouhei the same intense glare as the girls stood in his way just in case "I would really appreciate it if you didn't bring my brother into this Shouhei. And I didn't go 'crying' to him, he – like always - just decided to intervene when he heard about the situation."
"Just like he did last year and that time after the festival too?" he sneered in a mocking tone, glare getting deeper as the began their stare off.
The room became dead silent as the two boys continued glaring at each other, a dark aura of anger and fear engulfing the room as students looked back and forth between the rivals, wondering who was going to try and sock who first until…
"Ahem!" a voice coughed, and the students turned to see a middle aged gray-haired woman in a bright yellow lady's suit, holding a clip board as she looked between both boys
"Itoguchi, Otonashi, as much as I would love to see you two duke it out with each other – it's unfortunately not on the syllabus, so please return to your seats so I can start class." She said as she headed for her desk "Same goes for the rest of you too, unless you all want to lose your break to make up for lost time."
The boys gave each other one finally glare "…Yes ma'am." and Shouhei sat bask down while Shouji headed towards his own desk along with their classmates.
"If I have to spend all of after school with him…!" Shouhei began mumbling as he gripped his hair
Jun sighed and Inori gave him a weak smile as she patted his back "Look on the bright side, Saehara's going to be there too – so there's less chance of you killing each other."
As the students calmed down and class begin, both boys glared at another from their desks, having the same thought run through their minds as they're eyes narrowed at each other with rage
I freaking hate him!
Meanwhile outside, a tall cloaked figure was standing on a branch on a nearby tree, looking into the classroom, five cards spinning around him
"Are you sure it's those two?" the figure said into one phone "They don't look like legendary warriors – or friendly for that matter."
"They're the ones Lady Fortuna talked about before she was captured – I'm sure of it! And the Wheel did showed their images before it disappeared." a scared childlike voice said from out of no where
"She's right, Which means we have to hurry and contact them soon before Saturn finds out we're here," A blank monotone voice echoed in the air "or worse – who they are."
The cloaked figure looked at the 5 cards – Cancer, Capricon, The Fool, Death, and the Wheel of Fortune. Their signs aren't even compatible, and their fortunes don't look too good either! How are they going to help us? The figure thought, but nodded and disappeared, but not before saying "Looks like you guys have your work cut out for you – Shouhei Itoguchi, Shouji Otonashi."
(Eyecatch1: Shouhei and Shouji are fighting while Jun, Inori, the mascots, and Saehara watch impatiently. Eventually, Jun gets fed up and pulls on both their ears. The rest laugh as the PCMF logo appears on the bottom corner of the screen)
(Eyecatch2: Cure Astral and Cure Tarot are arguing while the mascots try to calm them down. A Mikaboshi appears and attacks, only to get punched out by the duo. As they continue their feuding in front of the unconscious monster, the PCMF logo appears on the bottom corner of the screen)
[After school]
"Thank you so much for your help Otonashi!" the student council President Saehara Mikuno squealed as she, Shouji, and Shouhei waving the Art club president goodbye and exited the soon to be Art club room, heading down the hall to their next task. She pushed back some of her mahagony-tinted brunette hair while adjusting her purple butterfly hairclip "I didn't think I'd be able to clean up the room and bring in those supplies in one day – It was really nice of you to offer your assistance!"
"It was my pleasure, President Mikuno." Shouji said with that same, sickly sweet smile that caused Shouhei's blood to boil again "But you should really thank Itoguchi too – He did most of the heavy lifting."
"Thank you for your help too, Itoguchi." Saehara said with a blank, unhappy tone, to which Shouhei replied with an irritated, but smug smile.
"You're very welcome - SaruSae." He replied sarcastically, mouth forming a smirk as the older girl stopped to fume.
"That's Mikuno-Senpai to you!" she snapped, cheeks red with implied anger "Just because you're here with Otonashi and are friends with my cousin doesn't mean you can act so rude to me!"
"Well, maybe if you didn't make that stupid monkey face every time you got mad, I wouldn't have to call you SaruSae then." The blonde replied, waving a dismissive hand at her while the girl look ready to punch him. And had Shouji not intervened it was most likely to lead there
"Now now, calm down President Mikuno, he's just teasing - you shouldn't let him get you so upset." The black-haired boy said as he touched the girl shoulder "Besides, you're too pretty to have such an angry face like that."
Saehara immediately calmed down and got a star-struck look in her eye "Y-you're right Otonashi," She said as she brushed back her bangs again "I shouldn't let him get the better of me like that! I'm the president and his senior, and should behave as such."
"And you're doing an excellent job of it."
"Oh don't say that! If I was doing a good job, Itoguchi wouldn't be such a problem!"
"Indeed," He added, "I'm curious though - how did Itoguchi get to be Student council Secretary anyway? He must have had to get alot of votes."
Saehara huffed
"Please, that despicable delinquent just got lucky is all, plus Jun vouched for him."
SHouhei cleared his throat
"This 'despicable delinquent' is still member of student council you helped vote into office, that you chose and helped approved of, and is standing right here." he countered, but the girl chose to ignored him.
"Now we just have to head to the computer lab to help the computer club replace some of their equipment and-" Saehara said as she reached into her bag, stopping mid sentence as her eyes suddenly widened and began shifting through the bag's contents "Ah, I can't find the storage room key! I must have left it in the club room!" she cried
Shouji gave another blood boiling smile (seriously, how has his face not gotten stuck like that yet!) "You can go ahead President Mikuno, me and Itoguchi can go get the key"
"Are you sure? You've helped me so much today, I don't want to cause you any more trouble." The girl said, squeezing her bag tightly as she lowed her voice "Besides, you and Itoguchi don't get along well, what if-"
Shouhei suddenly cut her off "Its fine, we aren't so hopeless that we can't find a stupid key by our selves without trying to kill each other." he said blankly, stopping both from interrupting him "Just hurry and get to the computer lab so those nerds don't start complaining about us being late and I get more time added to my punishment."
The girl paused for a moment, then smile "Fine, just don't take too long and lock up the room afterwards." She said, handing Shouji the room key. She the bowed to Shouji, gave Shouhei a very weak glare mouthing "Thank you.", and ran off down the hall.
Shouhei walked back to the club room with Shouji, both giving each other the occasional glare.
"That was surprisingly civil of you." Shouji mocked
"Shut up, the quicker we get the key, the quicker I can go home and loathe you from there."
As Saehara ran down the hall and turned the corner, she bumped into someone and fell flat to the ground. Said someone was a woman with dark purple hair, green eyes, odd facial tattoos, and a strange looking violet and red dress and cloak with a 4-pointed star with a picture of a engraved skull pinned to it.
"O-oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bump into you?" she apologized as she stood, but the person just glared at her in turn "u-um, I've never seen you before - do you need some help?
The strangely dressed woman suddenly smirked. This girl's misfortune index is off the charts - she'll make a perfect Mikaboshi
"Hello?" Saehara asked again and the woman's smirk turned into a deceivingly innocent smile.
"Actually," she said, then pulled out a glittery black orb, images swirling inside of it "You can start by letting me tell you your fortune..."
When they reached the clubroom, Shouji unlocked the door and they entered to look for the key, only to find that the room was dark and had been filled with candles and archaic décor. In the middle of the room was a cloaked figure, sitting at the table as they bayed the boys to come closer
"The hell's all this?" Shouhei said as Shouji headed towards the table, giving the cloaked figure an interested glare
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
The figure smirked from under its hood as Shouhei walked over too "Let just say I'm a messenger of Fate, okay? As for what I'm doing…."
The dark clad figure then moved their hands over the table, revealing two cell phone pouches. One was black and blue with a five-pointed star symbol on front while the other was white and red with a crescent moon symbol on it, both having what looked like a second compartment on the side. "I am here to deliver you two your destiny."
Destiny? The boys thought in unison as they stared at the pouches for a few minutes before turning their attention back at the figure.
"Take'em, they're yours after all." The figure said, still smirking and pointed at the pouches "And trust me when I say you're going to need'em."
Shouji took the white and red one hesitantly while Shouhei had done so quickly with the black and blue one and began examining the item, opening it up to observe the contents. Inside was a black, blue, and periwinkle cell phone that had the same star symbol as the pouch, and the compartment on the side contained cards. Shouji did the same with his and saw he had the same cell phone – only his was pink, red, and white with the crescent moon.
Cell phones? Shouhei thought as he stared at the device What the hell are we suppose to do with these?
Both looked up to ask what the cloaked figure had meant, only to realize that they were gone and the room had somehow returned to normal, with the storage room key lying on the table.
A hallucination? Shouji thought as he pocketed the key, looking at Shouhei and the cell phone in his hand But Itoguchi saw it too? And what about these cell phones?
Then - it got weirder as the mysterious, oddly girly cell phones started talking
"Let me out-Kuro!" a girly, frightened voice squeaked from Shouji's phone
"Right now would be very appreciated please-Lachi." A masculine, dull voice asked from Shouhei's phone.
Both boys looked at each other, then the phone, then back at each other, then at the phones again as they very, very slowly, flipped them open. The second the did, a tiny puff of smoke appeared and two tiny creatures popped out of the screens.
the one from Shouhei's phone was a black bunny with blue eyes and sky blue high-lights on it's ears wearing light violet tie and a star-shaped earring on it's left ear, while the one from Shouji's phone was a white tiger with red eyes and pink stripes wearing a crimson red bow and a crescent moon earring on it's right ear. The two were struck speechless as they stared at the creatures who stared back with intense joy and curiosity.
"Thank you very much Shouji-Kuro!" the tiger said, jumping up and down with glee "I'm so happy I can finally move around again-Kuro!"
"You have my thanks too Shouhei," the rabbit said as it bowed to Shouhei "and must say I'm also overjoyed to finally make your twos acquaintances-Lachi."
Shouji and Shouhei gawked at the creatures, then the pouches, then around the room, then each other, then finally, back at the creatures
Their reaction
"What the Fu-"
Then suddenly, they heard a terrified and familiar scream coming from far down the hall
"Was that-"
"-Saehara?"
The creatures climbed onto their shoulders as the boys immediate put the cell phones back in their pouches and into their pockets, the ran out the class room and down hall, the two creatures holding onto to their respective masters shoulders for dear life. When they reached corner, they immediately stopped in their tracks at the sight before them – Saehara was on the ground unconscious in front of a strangely dressed woman and a huge butterfly-snake hybrid with glowing yellow eyes and covered in black stars towering over the two.
"MIKABOSHIII!" it hissed, glaring at the duo.
"What in the world is that!" Shouji cried while Shouhei directed his attention to the woman and Saehara, rage practically radiating off him
"You – who are you? What the hell did you do to Saehara!" he screamed.
The woman ignored him and instead focused on the two creatures on each boy's shoulder "So you did run off here, Lachesis, Clotho. I must say, I love the new look…" she said, smirking widely as the monster glowered next to her "I was beginning to think I made a mistake coming to earth, but it looks like fate's on my side this time. So are you going to come quietly?"
"The only mistake you made was betraying Lady Fortuna and joining the side of evil, Mouja-Kuro!" The tiger snapped as it glared back at her "If you think we're going to ever help you after all that then you're crazier than we thought-Kuro!"
"And don't think we're going to tell you anything about the gear spirits either-Lachi," he rabbit glared as well "Even if we knew where they were or did, using them won't change Lady Fortuna prediction."
"Don't be stupid!" She yelled "This changes everything I've had to go through because of that woman! That all of us did!"
As their shouting match volleyed back and forth, Shouhei spotted Saehara's bag and slowly reached for it, while Shouji was still trying to figure out what the hell was going on.
First that strange person shows up in the art club room and gives us these phones, then strange miniature animals come out of them, and now some strange woman shows up with that…creature, talking about gears and who knows what while President Mikuno's unconscious! He thought, looking between the three If I could just distract her long enough, I could get President Mikuno and-
"Hey humans!" she spat, finally turning her attention to the two "I'll make this simple – hand over those two creature and those cell phones now."
Shouji would have asked "Or what?" if the glance she made at Saehara and the creature slithering a bit forward hadn't pretty much spell it out for him – give the phones to her or Saehara gets it.
She may have that creature, but I'm probably stronger than her… He thought All I have to do is surprise her and-
"Fine, take'em." Shouhei sighed, then stepped forward and held out the pouch containing the device "Just don't hurt Saehara okay?"
"Itoguchi, what are you doing?" The black haired boy growled at him, hatred seething into his glare Why'd he give up so easily? He should've already realized there's no chance of her letting any of us go unharmed!
"Don't do it-Kuro!" the Tiger cried from Shouji's shoulder
"Clotho's right, if she gets her hand on those devices - we're all doomed-Lachi." the rabbit cried dully as it pulled on the blonde's hair.
The woman smiled "Now don't be so selfish you two, he's just being very considerate of the situation." She then ordered the creature to back off as she walked over to reach for the cell phone
And as soon as both were far away enough from Saehara, Shouhei pulled his hand back "Big mistake!" he said, and threw the water bottle he had behind his back at her.
She screeched as the water slashed all over her, then Shouhei knocked her over, scooped up Saehara, and ran past the monster "What the hell are you waiting for – RUN!"
Shouji – still a bit shocked – immediately followed suit as the woman pushed her herself up off the ground and glared at the direction they took off in, the water bottle becoming burnt plastic as she took it and crushed it in her glowing hands
"Mikaboshi – after them! Don't let those damn humans escape alive!"
"Mikaboshi!" it hissed, and slithered after them
[School courtyard]
Shouhei and Shouhei were on the ground, attempting to catch their breath while the cell phone creatures examined the unconscious Saehara, who was laid out on one of the benches behind a tree.
"So…were you… going to…tell me…about…your master plan?" Shouji gasped, sweat dripping off his face as he sat up "Where did…you get…that water bottle…from?"
"It was in…Saehara's bag." Shouhei replied exhaustively as he sat up as well, wiping his forehead with his sleeve "Didn't…come up with…the plan…till she asked…for the phones! Beside…you wouldn't…have listened…if I told you!"
"Of course…I wouldn't have! It was so…stupid!" The black hair boy tiredly sneered and faced the blonde "Shouldn't…have even…worked! My plan…was way better!
"Oh…yeah!" He wheezed with a smirk "And what exactly…was your plan? Flirt them...to death!"
The rabbit shook it head as it walked away from Saehara and watched the two young men bicker. It began muttering to itself "If they have enough time and energy to argue, they could at least use it to think of a plan together-Lachi."
The tiger giggled as it stopped next to it "They've just gotten started Lachesis, they still need time to adjust-Kuro. Besides, we haven't even gotten a chance to explain anything yet-Kuro."
And right on cue, the boys turned their attention to the creatures behind them
"Now then" Shouji started, dusting off his uniform "if you would be so kind-"
"-As to tell us" Shouhei concluded, arms crossed "what the hell's going on?"
The creatures took in deep breathes, ready to explain their harrowing tale of despair, betrayal, survival, and hope - only to be interrupted by the same Butterfly-Snake hybrid they had just escaped bursting through the courtyard doors followed by it wet master, both looking very, very angry
"Told you it shouldn't have worked." Shouji deadpanned, giving the blonde an annoyed 'I-told-you-so' look
"Shut up, at least we bought enough time to hide Saehara." Shouhei mumbled back matter-of-factually, taking off his glasses to massage his temples.
"So what now - stand here and get killed?" The black haired boy asked sarcastically and gave him an arrogant smirk "Unless you got anymore water bottles on you?"
The blonde placed back on his specs and smirked back as he sniggered "Not unless you're throwing out that flirting plan?"
The woman gritted her teeth "Since you both seem to have time to laugh, you can both make jokes in hell!" she screeched, then turned to the monster as she pointed at the boys "Mikaboshi – destroy them both!"
The abomination growled, and charged foreword as the duo stood their ground, ready for whatever happened next
Or not, because just as the monster struck, the day brought them another oddity onto of the madness – Shouji and Shouhei, arms covering their faces, started glowing.
That's right – they were glowing.
"Okay, seriously!" the blonde complained as the monster got bounced back "Why the HELL is this happening to me!"
"To be honest," the dark hair boy said as his stared at his luminescent hand "considering everything that's happened today – this really isn't that surprising."
Then the glowing stopped and the monster began to try and get up
Doubt we'll be able to do that again…Shouji thought as he tried to think of another escape plan
"Quick," the tiger cried, getting the boys attention "You have to transform-Kuro!"
"Tr-transform?" Shouji stammered
"Into what?" Shouhei asked
"There's no time to explain-Lachi." The rabbit said as it jumped up and pointed at the pouches in their pockets "You have to use the Fate-dials and Fortune cards-Lachi."
The young men responded by taking them out and opening the pouches, then pulling out the phones as they went through the deck of cards in the side pouch till each pulled out a card with a picture of a girl holding a wooden wheel.
"You mean these" they asked in unison as they held up the items, glaring at each other a bit
"Yes, just slash the cards across the Fate-dials-Lachi." and let's hope for the best…
The boys looked at each other and the phones for a few moments before the monster bellowed behind them
Hmm, maybe if we lucky - We'll turn into Kamen Riders, they thought, staring at the cards a bit longer
"Oh well…" Shouhei grinned as he readied his card
"Here goes nothing…" Shouji as he readied his as well.
They jammed the cards into the scanner slots and slashed. When they did; they suddenly felt like they lost control of their bodies , hands wrapping around the others as they shouted to the sky –
"Dual Destiny Impulse!"
Both were then consumed in cocoons of light – Shouhei's being blue with black stars while Shouji's was pink with white crescent moons.
Neither remember much exempt their bodies suddenly changing and being wrapped around red and blue strings.
When the lights finally faded, the cocoon dispersed and revealed…two girls
The one on the left where Shouhei had stood was platinum blond with long, spiky hair that reached her waist and azure blue eyes wearing a light blue bow with a black jem on the left side of her head. She was dressed in a short blue and black corset dress, frilled with a ruffled sky blue skirt, puffy sleeves, a navy blue ribbon in the back and one on front baring a black heart-shaped crystal, black and light blue elbow length fingerless gloves and shorts, and knee length black lined powder blue boots. On her right hip was her Fate-dial in its pouch clipped to a light blue strap-like belt.
And the one on the right where Shouji had stood had onyx-black hair tied into curled twin tails and bright mahogany eyes, the right twin tail had a pink bow with a white jem. She also wore a short, frilled, corset dress, but it was red and white and the skirt was fuchsia pink and tiered. Also, it's sleeves were flared instead. The ribbon on the back and front were scarlet, the one on front had a white heart-shaped crystal. The gloves were white and light red, and the boots were white lined and pink with heels and stopped below the knee. on her left hip was her Fate-dial in its pouch clipped to a light red strap-like belt
The black and blue clad blonde posed by swishing her hips to the right and lifting her left hand up
"Oracle of the Stars – Cure Astral!"
The red and white clad brunette made a similar pose by swishing her hips to the left and lifting her right hand up
"Oracle of the Arcana – Cure Tarot!"
"We are Pretty Cure!" They shouted together, then both lowered their raised hands and pointed at the creature and the woman.
"Together with the powers of the Fates Divine-" The black-haired girl said as she glared at her opponents
"-We shall end your transgressions, and assure good fortunes for all!" the Blonde finished as she too glared.

"The legendary warriors - Pretty Cure!"
A beat passed
And then the screaming started
"WHAT THE HELL!?"
(Ending: Turnabout Fate – Junko Minagawa)
