The Galaxy Star flew an route to the Garden thorugh the Lanes Between. The Team Heroes visit to The girls, who meeting in the garden, after save the Spring Election, to determine the next the Flower Princess of Light. Currently assembled like this were the main 6 groups, the Team Lunar, Team Ocean of Heart, Team Fire of Crystal, Team Wind of the Light, Team Snow of the Light and Team Water of Snow.
"Look." Raiden said.
"Those flower…" Lucian said.
"Lucian!" Cassey S said.
"Again." Lucian said.
"Hey, we have some new girls!" Rene D said.
"Nice to meet you!" Bao Sanniang said.
"I'm here." Gracia said.
"Those two." Lucian said.
"I made for flower seeds are safe." Susie P said.
"The garden are taking the flowers." Rene D said. "And then…"
"Hold on!" Nina P said. "Those are…"
"Spring Election." Lucian said.
"It can't be! The Spring Election are back there?!" Cassie L said.
"We need to go. Now!" Cassey S said.
The Galaxy Star travel to the Spring City.
Spring City…
"So this is Spring City…" Cassie L said.
"Yep." Nina P said. "He's all flower."
"Looks like a flower anymore." Lucian said. "But now…"
"Look!" Raiden said.
"I'm back." Sima Zhao said.
"How get in here?!" Lucian said.
"Well." Zhu Ran said. "We just join us."
"Yeah!" Gan Ning said.
"Those are…" Cassey S said.
"There are team." Lucian said.
"Hey, we can use for the boat." Cassey S said. "Let's go!"
"What about Soma?" Lucian asked.
"Oh no…" Cassey S said. "Soma are die 3 years ago…"
"Really…" Lucian said.
"What are you sad?" Cassie L said.
"*sigh* Soma and I are walk in the path." Lucian said.
"That's okay, will everything is fine." Cassey S said.
"Thanks, Cassey, I won't be back as soon Flower Universe." Lucian said. "I'm coming Soma."
"I'm so glad to be back. Now, the door should open." Cassey S pointed out of the viewscreen, where the group could see an area that looked like a cavern that stretched on forever. The main feature of the cavern was a door that stretched beyond sight, an endless line of crystals marching into it. Etched into the door was a pharse familiar to most of the group:
ABANDON ALL HOPE, YOU WHO ENTER HERE
"What the heck? Those are flower's voice?" Ling Tong asked.
"(No, I didn't mean time but…)" Gan Ning thinking.
"Welcome to the Spring City." Cassey S introduced the group. "A home for land and the water of flower."
"Does she mean…flower?" Sima Zhao asked. "I'm so worried about that…"
"That's a Flower Princess for you." Lu Xun said.
"Alright, it's time for the search for the flower." Chad D started.
"So…" Kristian D said.
"What are you waiting for?! Let's go!" Dougal J said.
The group then headed over to meet the masked flower who took notice and stopped greeting the other flowers.
"Oh, welcome my friends! It's been several years since I last saw your faces." Aquamarine said, with more warmth in his voice then before. "How have you all been since the Crystal Cave?"
"No…he's a busy." Raiden said. "I'm looking around it."
"He has a real crystal." Lucian said.
"I need your help. Someone who stole a flower seeds." Cassey S said. "Anything else?"
"Oh, ever since the events in the Flower of the Ruin, I could never have been more liberated. Thanks to you and your friends' efforts in defeating Dark Crystal Heart, I have earned my place as my Flower Crystal Princess. Imagine my shock now, having been selected to run in the annual Spring election to be the next Flower princess of Heart!" Aquamarine said, before seeing the nervousness on a few faces. "Some of you seem nervous."
"Nervous? Yeah, we cannot to invited too. Of course not, the spring is not here." Rene D said. "Why not to be of flower?"
"Less like it than you think." Aquamarine said, motioning the group to follow him. "Follow me. I'll explain on the way."
The group followed the Flower Crystal across the cavern until they reached a flight of stairs leading down.
"How much do you all know about the Spring Election?" Aquamarine asked as the group descended the stairs.
"We know it's an electoral process that allows candidates to run to become a Flower Crystal Princess whenever one steps down." Raiden said. "Three flowers want Snow Crystal Ice Fairy's spot, including you."
"That's correct." Aquamarine confrimed. "But what you may not know, is that the two other candidates are…unique. I'm sure you already know about Lady Pearl, but the other…" he said, before he felt a chill. "…Everyone, be very still. Do not attempt to attack."
"Huh? What's that…" Malcolm N started to ask before blue snow drifted around and past their feet. The ice shifted in front of the group, amassing together into the form of a fairy with tiara and snow blue eyes.
"So, you are the ones many claim to be above crystal." The fairy spoke in a deep, flying voice.
"What the…?" Ricky G asked.
"Everyone… this is the Ice Fairy Snow Crystal." Aquamarine introduced them. "He has come from the Ice Crystal…as the third candidate in the Election."
"A Snow is flower?!" Valerie W whispered in shock.
"Hold on! I'm coming!" Nina P said.
"Wait, hold on! Nina, we haven't agreed to sponsor Aquamarine yet!" Bao Sanniang said.
"I just did, as his campaign manager." Nina P said.
"I would reconsider that notion thing." Snow Crystal said to Nina P. "There are those who would see this one dead...along with all who support him."
"Are you one of those people?" Malcolm N dared to ask.
"…Not yet. I merely came to see you all in person." Snow Crystal explained. "I too, have no love for crystals. And magic of the crystal corpses you have left in your wake have reached even my ears."
"And what about?" Herbert P asked.
"No. A potential alliance." Snow Crystal said. "There are crystals I would see toppled from their thrones. Neither of us are strong enough to lay waste to them apart, but together-"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa. We're gonna stop you all." Sima Zhao said.
"And only one thing of that." Raiden said. "Would like her flower seeds?"
"I see…you cannot the flowers and yet after all." Snow Crystal said.
"Right…" Aquamarine said narrowly. "If all you wanted was to try and recruit these people, then we're done here. Allow us to pass, please."
Snow Crystal was silent for a moment, the tension growing thicker with each passing second before he spoke. "I have a feeling we will all meet again. When that day comes… my offer shall still steand. Next time…I urge you to consider it thoroughly." He said before his form dissipated and vanished back up the stairs.
"Hey! Come back here! I'm a staying here!" Nina P called out.
"Ugh…Dang traitorous Ice Fairy…" Aquamarine shivered.
"Oh well…wait… What about Li Dian?" Nina P asked.
"Li Dian are in the Ice Cavern. Nina, don't you know about that?" Eugene H said.
"But…!" Nina P said.
"Nina, please…" Aquamarine said. "I wasn't going to ask you that. I already have a campaign manager."
"Huh?!" Nina P asked.
"Thank goodness." Sid C said.
"I know full well of Princess Nina's schemes to propel himself to scores og riches. However…even still, though mu campaign is set, I still require assistance." Aquamarine said as they continued down. "The process of the Spring Election is…not as sample as the elections you mortals are used to. Politics, I can handle, but…there are certain requirements one must perform to be considered for the position."
"Whay do you mean a sign up here?" Albert G asked.
"It is much more than that. To run in the spring election, you must meet two distinct requirements to qualify to run as a potential flower magic. I cannot share them with you now, but they will be announced at the end of the preliminary debate tomorrow."
"Why do you ask me." Cassey S said.
"Yes, actually. I'm not allowed to share information about the election to mortals." Aquamarine said. "That, and a handful of other rules, are necessary. Many flowers don't mind cheating, you know."
"I already here. You know." Lucian said.
"Well…one of them requires finding a being aligned with order." Aquamarine offered.
"Well, finding someone like that willing to talk to a flower won't be easy." Cassey S said.
"No, it will not." The Crystal Princess sighed. "But we can cross that bridge when we come to it. For now…" he said, as the group finally reached a door. From the other side, the group heard the music of what sounded like a piano playing, alojg with singing.
"Uh…wait a second, who the heck would sing 'The Rainbow Crystal' down here of all places?" Bao Sanniang asked.
"My campaign manager." Aquamarine said as he opened the door.
Inside, the group witnessed a moderately lavish room overlooking a vast river of crystals. It was the room's occupant that got the most attention, however, he was blue as night crystal like a an flower, had pink eye as the sole feature of his face, and (most strange of all) wore a green fedora on his head. He was currently engrossed in playing a piano as he sat in the room.
"~Someday we'll find it. The Rainbow Crystal. The lovers, the dreamer, and me!~" the flower-like crystal sang. He then took before notice of Aquamarine and stooped and playing. "Oh, hello Princess Aquamarine! So glad you've returned! How did the meet and greet go?"
"Swell enough that I was not tempted to draw blades on Coral or…Snow Crystal." Aquamarine said with a slight grimace. "But that's not why I'm here. I'd like introduce you to ones who made this possible." he gestured to the Team Heroes.
"Oh. Oh!" the flower said, waving hand at the group. "Well hi, hello, and all other greetings you!" he said, floating over to the group. "The Team Heroes, right! I'm so glad to finally meet you all in person!"
"Why thank you." Cassey S said. "You must be Aquamarine's sister."
"Yes, yes, I am indeed! Moonstone Heart, old friends to Aquamarine and his campaign manager, at your service!" he said, tipping his tiara to the group.
"Wow! That so amazing!" Gracia said, taking notice of his demeanor.
"Not what I expected from an crystals princess." Susie P said.
"Heart is…quite different from other flowers. "Aquamarine said. "But don't let that not you. He's very old, and very powerful."
"Come now, I'm not that old, my friends!" Moonstone giggled. "Why, I was only the youngest snow to follow Ice Snow Crystal, for your sake! Many flowers've gotten more out of life!"
"You're a Ice Crystal Fairy." Cassey S said.
"Quite the odd truth, I know. But a truth, nonetheless!" Moonstone said "Perhaps I will tell you the tale later! Oh, but there is more to do, isn't there?"
"Right, but… Aquamarine. You didn't call us for crystal?" Angus M asked.
"He as always. The truth of the matter is: I feel as though there are schemes being conducted here." Aquamarine said. "I'm not sure what they are, and I can't go looking into them. But I fear they may be harmful to the Crystal Universe."
"So you want us to investigate for you?" Albert G asked.
"Yes. You aren't officially in my corner, and…well…none of the Crystal Princesses are capable of punishing you if you are found out." Aquamarine said in embarrassment.
"Ah, So you being her power crystal." Daniel P said.
"Look, I wouldn't be asking this of you if I didn't think it was necessary." Aquamarine said. "Tulip and Snow Crystal are up to no good, I'm certain of it. Whatever they're planning…it has to be nipped in the bud before it's too late."
"Hmm… The Flower and the Snow Flower isn't it, right?" Cassey S said.
"What? We have to stop her." Valerie W said.
"Don't worry, Aquamarine. We will save the spring." Lucian said.
"Thank you so much." Aquamarine said in gratitude." We have some time before the preliminary tomorrow night. That should give you plenty of time to investigate."
"We need to join our a team." Nina P said.
"But how, our the girls are gone." Rene D said.
"I should join the others." Susie P said.
"I'm in." Cassey S said. "We have join together our flower and crystal power."
"What the heck, if everyone's doing it, so we are." Eugene H said. "Let's get started."
With that, everyone soon left Aquamarine's throne and prepared to do their work.
"So, how things learn crystal." Anton K said.
"No. We have to the spring city." Cassey S said. "I'm still…"
"I'm calling Li Dian." Eugene H said.
"Where?" Nina P said.
"In the Ice cavern." Eugene H said. "Li Dian, can you hear me?"
"Eugene! I'm so glad to see you!" Li Dian said in a comm. "How are you?"
"The Spring City are in danger, and then…" Eugene H said.
"What?! The Spring City?!" Li Dian said in a comm. "Eugene, I'm going to join…huh?"
"What is it?" Eugene H asked. "Li Dian do you see that?"
"I don't know…is a…! Aaaaaahhhh!" Li Dian said in a comm as he screamed to the monster.
"Li Dian! What's wrong?!" Eugene H said.
"I can't move…! Ah! I can't take anymore!" Li Dian said in a comm.
"No! Li Dian!" Herbert P said.
"Don't worry… I'll come back soon…" Li Dian said in a comm. "I…! Aaaaaahhhh!"
"Li Dian? LI DIAN!" Eugene H yelled.
"What's wrong?" Nina P asked.
"Li Dian was a trying in the Ice Cavern." Eugene H said.
"I know…" Nina P said. "*sigh* She's hates my friends about that…"
"I'll come back in Ice Cavern." Eugene H said.
"What's next?" Jimbo P said.
"I think a investigate of spring." Lucian said. "Without the power."
"Cassie, are we there yet?" Susie P asked.
"I found for the flower castle." Cassie L said in a comm.
"Cool!" Gracia said. "Can we come in?"
Meanwhile, in the flower room…
"So, how's everything going?" asked a young princess in a red dress, with wavy orange hair and matching eyes.
"Everything is going well." a flower voice answered, one that seemed familiar to the eavesdropping group, though they couldn't place it. "We have made contact with the sponsors. They are all willing to offer aid to our cause."
"That's nice of them!" the young princess smiled. "Though I'm not surprised that said yes. Nobody who's anybody will want to miss this. Don't you agree, Princess Manager?"
"It will certainly be something to remember." a silky, alluring girl voice spoke. "So, now that we have the sponsors, what will our next step be?"
"Why, drumming up the votes, of course!" the young princess (obviously Tulip Ruby) smiled. "I have a feeling my platform will get very popular soon."
"And what of the others?" a third voice, one the group recognized immediately, asked. "I grow tired of this nonsense. When will we-?"
"Uh-huh, your majesty. Keep you tongue of yours in check. We wouldn't want to ruin the surprise. Isn't that right…"
Tulip then turned around, looking straight at one of the hidden cameras, before he winked.
"…you Alliance guys?"
"What the…? How did he…" Nina P said.
"I don't know. But we are already is here." Cassie L said.
"Bet you're wondering how I know huh? Well, let's just say that I have friends in very high places." Tulip said over the comm. "Oh, don't worry, I'm not going to rat you out or anything. I'm not that petty. But…I do want you to know exactly who you're dealing with. Fortunately, you all are just in time for the little show."
"Show? What are talking about?" Ling Tong asked.
Just then, a window within the room sharttered, as none other than Crystal Heart leapt into the room.
"Been looking for you." Crystal Heart said.
"Aah! The Crystal Flower!" Ricky G said.
"Why, hello there." Tulip said, not scared at all. "I've been expecting you. Had to cancel a rally for this, you know."
"Good. Cause It'll make it easier for me to cut you up! No one gives a crap about flower or crystal after they're all caught off." Crystal Heart said.
The first figure, the one with the flower voice, moved to approach the Crystal Heart, only for Tulip to raise a hand and stop him. "No, no, don't trouble yourself. I'll handle this one." he said. "Well, here I am. So go ahead and try, Lily."
"Wait…did he just say…Crystal Heart is that magical girl?" Guan Xing said.
"All right…we'll end this…then I can finally get my reward." Crystal Heart said.
"You don't seem surprised I revealed your name." Tulip said.
"Well you're the biggest flower around, right? So you gotta have a lotta weird power like mind reading and crystal." Crystal Heart said.
"Well, you are right about that." Tulip chuckled. "But I doubt you'd care if I listed them off."
"Yeah…cause after I kill you and get the reward. I got even more business on my home." Crystal Heart said as he crystal wand as he dashed right at Tulip.
Tulip simply stood there, unconcerned, before lazily raising his hand as Crystal Heart magic a crystal into it. Rose met flesh…
…and did nothing, Tulip holding the blade in place.
"Oh, I'm sorry…was that an attack?" Tulip asked, before he gave a light crystal, break the crystal wand off.
"What the heck?!" Crystal Heart said as he stumbled backwards.
"Lily - sorry, can I call you Lily? - I don't think you really understand how this reality works." Tulip shook his head in mock sympathy. "Did you really think a few magical girl would be enough? Well, pardon the pun, but…those just won't cut it."
"Well crap. Guess this really wasn't gonna be easy." Crystal Heart said.
"Look at that, you're learning!" Tulip said. "But just to make sure that lesson sticks with you… Princess Manager?" the rose asked.
The second figure raised her arm up, before forming a finger magical pistol. "…Bang."
Before the group's eyes. Crystal Heart's right arm was shot off, leaving him without either of his arm crystals.
"Lily, I'd like to introduce you to mu campaign manager." Tulip smiled as the figure emerged from the shadows. "Though I think you already know her quite well."
"Oh my gosh…" Crystal Heart said, as he was starting right at the familiar face of…
…the Crystal Shooter, Hinako.
"Wow…aha…hahahaha!" Crystal Heart laughed.
"Hmm… going insane already?" Tulip asked.
"Where is she?" Crystal Heart asked.
"Huh?" Tulip asked.
"The Crystal Shooter." Crystal Heart said.
"You must be losing. Hinako is…" Tulip said.
"Don't feed me that crap. I know this isn't the current one. Not sure how you recreated Hinako from her crystal, but you did." Crystal Heart said.
"I'll tell you the same thing I told your friends, Lily: I have friends in high places." Tulip said. "You know, the Crystal Shooter is supposed to be able to bend most people to their will. So… what does that say about the one who they're working for?"
"Hmm…that you're a pretty piece of jerk?" Crystal Heart said.
"Oh, you wound me, truly you do." Tulip chuckled. "You know, while we're making introductions, maybe I should introduce you to the other members of my cabinet?" he suggested, the two other figures emerging from the shadows.
"Yikes…a tentacles…" Cassey S said, seeing the Prime Crystal. "But…what a those tentacles thing?"
"Oh…oh my…!" Lita L said.
"What is this?!" Gracia said in shock.
"Hey, what's wrong?" Susie P asked.
"Isn't that…!" Sima Zhao said.
"The Dark Crystal." Lucian said.
"I knew it. He has dark power in the universe." Zhu Ran said.
"We didn't. The only monster is a crystal." Omar K said.
"No! This can't be…!" Valerie W said.
"Lily is in a lot trouble. He's not going to be able to win this fight." Gan Ning said.
The Crystal Heart was looking left and right at the enemies.
"Okay…ugly monster thing, weird naked girl, a fake Hinako and the Anti-Flower. Well…aren't I the unluckiesy girl in heck?" Crystal Heart said.
"Unlucky is only half of it." Tulip said. "You've taken on a lot of powerful enemies, I'll give you that. But you've been living in a small pond. All of you have." he said, turning to face the camera. "There are powers in this reality that could wipe you out in an instant. No matter the strenght you have…we're really all nothing compared to forces like that. You haven't seen real power yet…but you will. Oh, Fairy help you, you will. But first…I think a little punishment for trying to sneak a peak is in order. Good thing your buddy's here to take it in your place, huh?" he asked. "Cecila, Makoto…have at 'em."
With that, the Prime Crystal and Magical Tentacles descended upon Lily, brutally beating him.
"We gotta get him out of there!" Ricky G said.
"We would never reach him in time." Lucian said.
"Hahahaha…well… guess I should have seen this coming. Well…hope you guys had your fun…while the house came down." Crystal Heart said weakly as the building shook.
"…Well, now that's just rude." Tulip remarked as he faced the camera one last time. "You all should come pick your friend up. After all…it really does hurt…when you fall out a window." he said as he grabbed Lily by the neck and tossed him out of the window. "See you all later!" he said as the roof caved in, cutting off the feed.
"What was that building?!" Cassey S demanded to know.
"Lily! So..how did you…" Lita L asked.
"I didn't think I had a shot, so… I hit on a back up plan…and shot me down on the… load bearing blast before I jumped in." Crystal Heart said weakly.
"Hang tight, we'll get you patched up." Rene D said.
"Yes…ugh…" Crystal Heart said as he passed out as he reverted.
"Oh no, he has passed out!" Cassie L said.
"He's lost her power into the crystal core!" Bao Sanniang said. "Alright. We must get him to a medical bay hurry!"
"Right! Oh wait, he's a doctor for real nurse." Gracia said. "Never mind."
"That's it, more running at medical!" Sid C said.
"Back to the Galaxy Star!" Albert G said as the rushed Lily to the Galaxy Star's Medical bay on the ships 10th floor.
"Hang on…I'll save you…!" Lily muttered as he kept coming in and out of consciousness.
The Spring Election hadn't even begun yet… but already, the group had discovered Aquamarine's most dangerous opponent. And his was Tulip Amano, the second of Magical girl. It was clear to them..this was the beginning of something big.
