Musical...Clash!"Cure Songstress yelled at a Malvoid. She and Cure Matchmaker were in the middle of a battle with a scissors created Malvoid.
Ignis wasn't far away as she was observing their battle.
"I guess this one will get beat any minute now," Ignis sighed. She glowered at Songstress and Matchmaker,using her ability to see dreamstones. She was fidgeting with her hands while examining their dreamstone,causing something abnormal to event. She had one of her hands in the shape of scissors,twirling it around. But if she concentrated, she realized she was able to make the Cures' dreamstone shift in their bodies. She decided to make a full turn of the hand and the two cures dreamstones were swapped. Ignis' eyes widened slightly but after nothing seemed to happen, she groaned in exasperation.
"Awake!"The two cures yelled. The Malvoid was cleansed yet Ignis seemed unimpressed.
"Yeah,okay great.I don't really care right now,"Ignis rambled as she left. The two cures received a duplicate dreamstone from the cleansed Malvoid. They de-transformed but as they did they realized something was very off.
"Sensaina,why am I looking at myself?" Jonetsu asked. She shook her head in disbelief.
"I don't but why on my side bangs on the wrong side?" Sensaina asked feeling the urge to correct it. She felt what she thought was her hair but noticed something was different. Her usually soft hair actually felt stiff like thread. She yanked out a strand to examine it. To her surprise,it was bright red and short.
"What the.." Sensaina trailed off in confusion,"Doki what happened?" Doki tilted her head to try and understand what she meant by 'happened'.
"I don't see anything wrong Jonetsu-kore,"Doki said.
"Sensaina asked you that,not me," Jonetsu said. Doki was too confused to say anything but it seemed Toki figured out what was happening.
"I believe you two switched-desu,"Toki said gravely. The two girls looked at each other in shock and confusement. Sensaina felt too awkward and a little bit unsafe in Jonetsu's body. She wasn't use to short hair that barely went past her shoulders. Jonetsu's appearance itself was much to flashy for Sensaina. She'd have to tone it down a bit to get into her little comfort zone. Jonetsu had a problem which the body she was swapped into too. For starters, she'd have to resist putting Sensaina's beloved chest length hair at scissor point. She also thought their would be a difference in the way people of different eye colors saw things. But no,to her disappointment Sensaina's sky blue eyes saw things the same way her natural amber eyes did.
"What can we do?" Sensaina asked.
"Hm, well what does that duplicated dreamstone look like-desu?"Toki asked.
"It has two arrows going in a circle," Sensaina lit up instantly,"Maybe this will help us go back to normal!" She took the dreamkeeper,held in her other hand and ,of course,wasn't use to looking at Jonetsu's burgundy heart decorated dreamkeeper as it made her momentarily confused.
"Specialize!"Sensaina yelled. A flash of light appeared and consumed the girls.
"Are they back-kore,"Doki asked hopefully.
"We just switched sides,"Jonetsu observed.
"Does that mean I have to go home like this?" Sensaina moaned.
"No, you'll have to go to my house like that," Jonetsu responded.
"I can't do that!" Sensaina wailed," I have so many nightly quirks and habits that need to be done at my house! Like I need a stuffed animal in my arms while I sleep, I need a cup of hot chocolate before bedtime.."
"How could people put up with you while traveling?" Jonetsu asked while Sensaina babbled.
"Just for one night, then we'll figure it out tomorrow-kore. Besides, its sunset time-kore," Doki pointed out.
"Alright,well.. you two are coming with me!" Sensaina said picking up Toki and Doki.
"Fine by me," Jonetsu said. The two switched keys just before they left each other.
"So you just twist right and pull,"Jonetsu said," Now how do you work this key?"
"Um, well I've...never used it," Sensaina confessed,"The door's always been open or I just knock!"
"Seriously?"Jonetsu yelled,"Fine I'll knock." She turned around and started to walk off.
"Jonetsu?" Sensaina called out. Jonetsu didn't turn back.
"What?" Jonetsu asked.
"I don't where your house is," Sensaina said sheepishly. Jonetsu groaned and turned back to escort Sensaina to her house for the night. When they got to her house, Jonetsu gave her a few tips about her behavior at home and her family.
"Alright, at home I'm super reserved and I'm always up in my room. My dad's an accountant so he comes home at decent times. His name is Taiki Hihoshi but I just called him dad. Then there's my mom who's always painting up in her 'special study' I call her mother and her name is Makka Hihoshi."
" Wait, the Makka Hihoshi?" Sensaina questioned. The name Makka Hihoshi belonged to a famous international modern painter. Her art work was consider a treasure to Kiirohikari yet, no one's ever actually seen the woman herself,"I get to meet Makka Hihoshi?"
"Yeah,yeah. Try not to make a big deal out of it. Remember, she's just my mom," Jonetsu advised.
"Yeah,but she's not my mom!" Sensaina stated. Jonetsu sighed.
"Just try not to make me look like an idiot,got it?" Jonetsu said. Sensaina nodded. Jonetsu turned and walked off.
"Good luck!" Sensaina cheered. Sensaina walked into Jonetsu's large house,which she probably only afford on the behalf of her mother and brilliant artistic skills. It was quite luxurious with velvety designed walls and extravagant furniture with an expensive looking chandelier that pretty much tied the room together. She walked slowly around the room,unsure whether or not to expect an army of maids pop out of nowhere ready to greet her. No maids it seemed, but there was a long stairway in the corner of the room.
"Must be where my room is,"Sensaina gazed. She reluctantly walked up the long flight of stairs, dazzled by all of Makka's artwork nailed to the walls. She eventually found Jonetsu's room. It felt quite like a rich-kid wonderland. She had the same velvety wallpaper like the living room and her room was extremely organized. She had a walk in wardrobe cluttered with expensive yet dainty even had a chalice filled with rubies!She fell onto Jonetsu's queen-sized bed with satin crimson comforters,still in awe of the room before her.
"Can I live here-desu?"Toki asked.
"You hate Jonetsu-kore,"Doki pointed out. Toki slumped in agreement.
"She never told me she was a rich kid," Sensaina said. She decided to snoop around in Jonetsu desk drawers to ease her mind. She didn't find anything but a photograph that looked very old. It was a picture of a six-year old Jonetsu grinning while holding up a paired of colorful that seemed to used to be white..
"The day mom let me spice up her shoes," Sensaina read from the back of the looked at the day the picture was taken. March fourteenth. That was today's date. Sensaina tried to make herself comfortable at Jonetsu and it was surprisingly easy to do so. Meanwhile at Sensaina's house, Jonetsu was suffering a mental meltdown.
"Her room just had to be a disaster today," Jonetsu said as her mouth twitched," She couldn't mind it if I clean it for her,right?" She downstairs to find a broom a dustpan in the kitchen since she saw one there earlier. But she saw one of Sensaina's sisters downstairs making dinner.
"Hey Miyako, or Minako," Jonetsu greeted,keeping her head down.
"Are they coming down?" The woman asked. Her voice sounded much older than the first time she heard them.
"Gag! That's her mother? So young-looking!" Jonetsu thought. The woman had the Utahime trait in her aparrently,owning lavender hair and blue eyes. Her hair was waist-length and she was shockingly short. She could've easily pulled off being one of her firstborns if she didn't speak.
"Um, mother. Where's the dustpan and broom?" Jonetsu asked.
"What ever happened to 'mom'? And it's by the table in the livingroom,"Sensaina's mother responded.
"Thanks and where's dad?" Jonetsu asked.
"Ha, Yamato's probably at some Italian bistro taking a break from work, why?"Sensaina's mother asked.
"Uh no reason," Jonetsu said. She took the broom and dustpan and headed up to Sensaina's bedroom. She slumped sitting onto Sensaina's single bed.
"Her dad works overseas?" Jonetsu asked aloud. The next day,the two cures planned to meet each where they got swapped. Sensaina was rummaging through Jonetsu's wardrobe hoping she had something comfortable for her. Eventually,she came across a two-toned violet and pink frilly shirt with that went up to her forearm.
"Wonder why she never wore this," Sensaina asked,slipping it of the hanger. At Sensaina's house Jonetsu woke up promptly and early as her usual. She already saw most of Sensaina clothes and they were all too plain and boring for someone like her. Even Sensaina's cheap trinkets couldn't work magic on these clothes. In the closet she found a cardboard box with a label on it that read 'MiMi's hand-me-downs'. She felt excitement well up in her since these were most likely high-fashion modelesque garments that Sensaina was probably too 'insecure' to even
touch. She ripped open the box,astonished by the decorated,detailed,flashy outfits she stumbled upon in this box.
"Now, we're talking!" Jonetsu exclaimed taking out several shirts from the box. When they went to meet each other,people who recognized the girls looked at them with confusion,knowing those weren't the clothes they would usually wear. Sensaina shrieked as she saw her body in one of her sisters' sleeveless shirts and miniskirts.
"What... are you wearing," Sensaina said in complete shock. Jonetsu looked at her body head to toe,giving a simple "Tsk" as her reaction.
"That shirt's the last thing I'd wear in public," Jonetsu said.
"Why?" Sensaina said,twirling around in the shirt.
"Because my mom gave it to me," She responded. Sensaina was a bit surprised Jonetsu was so cold to her mother. When they got to the exact spot, they were spotted by a young girl who swarmed towards them.
"You're... Jonetsu Hihoshi,right?"The young girl asked. She seemed about a year younger than the girls. She wore her chestnut shaded hair in buns at the side of her head and outfitted herself in a girly top with a butterfly on it and shorts,"I'm Kiku and I'm a big fan of your mother's work."
Jonetsu rolled her eyes and let Sensaina respond.
"Yup,that's me!"She attempted to make herself sound like Jonetsu.
"Well,can I get your mother's autograph?" Kiku said glazing her eyes on Sensaina. It seemed Jonetsu saw this coming. Sensaina didn't want to let this girl down though.
"Sure! Let's go to my house!" Sensaina encouraged. The three of them went to the mansion-like house.
"Do you really want to set this girl up for disappointment,"Jonetsu whispered to Sensaina.
"Oh,come on. It's just one hopeful girl," Sensaina said,"Now who would say no to her?"
"My mom would,"Jonetsu said in her head.
"So..what does your mom look like?" Kiku asked. Sensaina froze up.
"Come to think of it,I don't know either."Sensaina thought. She never got to see Ms. Makka because she was always in her painting study.
"Um,well, Sensaina over her is really descriptive so she should explain,"Sensaina encouraged.
"You want descriptive? You got it," Jonetsu thought,"Well she's of pale skin that makes her look like some sort of vampire because she doesn't get out enough. She's also got a hunch back with blood-red hair and super icy blue eyes that reap into your soul!"Jonetsu explained. She was freaking out Kiku and even Sensaina.
"You're making yo-my mom sound like a monster!"Sensaina shouted,comforting a teary-eyed Kiku.
"She is a monster," Jonetsu said her head. They eventually got to Jonetsu's abode. They came in and went to the door of Makka's study.
"Um,mom?" Sensaina nervously called out.
"What?" A snappy voice responded.
"Can we come in?"
"Who's we?"
"Um, me,my friend Sensaina, and this girl we just met, Kiku."
"Only you come in." Score! Now I finally get to see her! She slowly opened the door that lead to Makka's study. As she walked in,the first thing that caught her eye was the immense amount of paintings hung from the walls. It was cluttered and messy making it no wonder that Jonetsu rarely went in here. In the middle of the room was a woman sitting at a desk,mesmerized in completing whatever she was doing. Surprisingly, Jonetsu wasn't lying about her mother's pale skin and dark crimson hair with icy blue eyes.
"What is it?" Makka asked,her gaze stuck on the painting she was working on.
"Um, well Kiku wants an autograph from you," Sensaina said. Makka took a pause from her painting.
"Tell her I said no," Makka said flatly.
"But, this one seems to really admire you," Sensaina encouraged.
"I. Don't. Care," Makka said. Sensaina walked out of the room in defeat.
"She said no,"Sensaina said hanging her head down.
"That's it," Jonetsu said. She slammed open the doors letting Kiku get a full glance of the woman she idolized.
"Is it really worth it acting like a spoiled brat just because you don't want to sign for name for just one kid?"Jonetsu yelled. Makka didn't give off much of a reaction and resumed painting. She walked off reluctantly,unable to be in the same room as her mother for another second.
"Where's Kiku?" Jonetsu asked.
"She ran off,let's go find her,"Sensaina suggested. They went outside where they found Kiku confronted by Ignis.
"My mother says to pick the very best one and this one is it!" Ignis incanted,stealing Kiku's dreamstone,"Appear,Malvoid!" She pointed a nearby water fountain. The girls went back into the house and both nodded. They reached for their dreamkeepers and dreamstones.
"Wait a minute, this is my dreamstone," Sensaina said while she held Jonetsu's Dreamkeeper.
"So if we just.." Jonetsu started. She and Sensaina swapped dreamkeepers and attempted to transform.
"Pretty Cure, Dream on!" They incanted as glittery lights began to enclose around them.
"Singing the everlasting melody,Cure Songstress!" Songstress shouted.
"Joining two hearts together, Cure Matchmaker!" Matchmaker announced.
"Guardian of Dreams side by side together we are... Dream High Pretty Cure!" They introduced.
"We're back to normal!" Songstress exclaimed,no longer able to look at herself.
"So that was the problem the entire time?" Matchmaker asked while Songstress was hugging herself. They heard a wild cackle come from outside.
"Where are those Pretty Cure?" Ignis said menacingly.
"We're right here!"They both said.
"Oh great, Malvoid attack!" Ignis commanded. The Malvoid sprayed water at Matchmaker and Songstress who were a bit amused by this Malvoid.
"Is that really all this one does?" Matchmaker questioned,giggling. The Malvoid whirled around recklessly lie it didn't care who it was shooting at. It even shot Ignis!
"Hey watch it! I don't want to be turned into charcoal!"Ignis yelled.
"All we really need is a shield," Matchmaker murmured. She took grasp of Songstress' hand.
"What are you doing?" Songstress asked.
"Just follow my lead!" Matchmaker instructed.
"Pretty Cure! Double Bubble Cover!" They yelled. Suddenly the Malvoid was encircled into a red and violet bubble unable to escape. It thrashed for a little while and sprayed as much as it can but eventually gave up. The girls snapped and the Malvoid was freed from the bubble.
" Pretty Cure, Heartless Resonance!" The girls cried surrounding the tired-out Malvoid with hearts and music notes.
"Awake!" They yelled. They Malvoid was purified and turned back into a water fountain.
"I got splashed with water," Ignis hissed before disappearing. Kiku's duplicated dreamstone materialized before them.
"Is that.. your mom's autograph?"Songstress asked.
"Looks like it," Matchmaker said nonchalantly. They detransformed. The next day at school they felt even better that they were back to normal.
"I'm glad we didn't get swapped during a school day!" Jonetsu declared.
"Yeah,because then I wouldn't get to enjoy,"Sensaina started as her eyes were glazing over the nearby Hideki. He noticed her staring and waved at her. She looked like she was about to faint.
"You're hopeless," Jonetsu scolded catching Sensaina. But she couldn't help falling for a cute guy like him!
