ONWARD! EPIC PRECURE!
CHAPTER 6
First Day of School?!
学校の初日？！
キュアセージの癒しの力！
Cure Sage's Healing Power!
Days turned into weeks. Summer break was over, it was time for Princess Senki and Matilda to begin their first day of school.
"Zzzzz..."
Slight snores could be heard from the princess before she woke up, blinking three times before looking at the window.
"What time is it?" She asked sleepily.
Matilda approached the bedside to greet her friend with a gentle smile and a bow. "Good morning, Your Highness. It is about time to go to school."
"Time... for school..." The princess slowly closed her eyes before gasping and jumping awake. Instant excitement filled her.
"Eeeeh?! It is the first day of school?! Today?!
Matilda nodded. "It is. Let us go get ourselves ready now. We do not want to be late."
SIZZLE, SIZZLE...
Meanwhile, Hotaru prepared some rice with miso soup and eggs for breakfast with a side of fruits. She hummed a song as she took the boiled eggs out of the bubbling pot.
She signed them up the previous week for school. With orientation, uniforms and the required supplies and school bags, Senki and Matilda were fully prepared to start their first day of school!
"This is so EPIC EPIC!!!" The ecstatic Senki hopped. "Matilda-san, our first day at the school place is today!!"
"Did you pack your supplies, Princess?" Matilda asked as she brushed her short hair.
"Materials?" Senki blinked, then screamed. "WAAAAAAAAAH! I DID NOT COMPLETE THE SCHOOL BAG!!! I WILL BE LATE!!!!"
In such a rush, Senki packed her things on her school bag. Notebooks, pencils, among other supplies that were scattered across the room.
"MATILDA-SAN, WHERE IS THE BOX WHERE THE COLORED STICKS GO?!"
Matilda looked back at the now desperate Senki. "The pencil case must be right by the table, Princess."
It was good that she found each of the supplies she needed, and so, she began packing everything up in a haste.
She let out a relieved sigh.
"Whew... I think that is everything."
With a smile, she zipped the bag closed and clipped the Treasure Pact in its pouch to one of the sides before picking it up.
With a twirl, she turned to Matilda, who was also finished.
"Alright! Matilda-san, I am ready!"
...
"Good morning, girls!" Hotaru waved and smiled as Senki and Matilda went to the kitchen. "You're just in time for breakfast! Please, have a seat!"
"Wow!"
Senki's eyes sparkled at the succulent breakfast. It was as if the meal shone right in front of her.
"What amazing meal, Hotaru-san!"
Hotaru smiled. "I think that perhaps I might open a cooking shop in the future. I find cooking to be another passion of mine, besides selling collectibles, of course."
"You should!" Senki encouraged her. "If everyone loves the collectibles you sell, they would undoubtedly love your epic epic meals!"
Hotaru chuckled. "If you say so, Princess."
She sat on the table with the girls to eat.
"Thank you for the meal!" The three said together.
Senki was the first to take a bite. Instantly, little sparkles shimmered atop her head as she hummed in delight.
"Mm~!"
"How is it?" Hotaru asked, turning her gaze to the fairy princess.
Senki smiled big. "Epic epically delicious! I want to eat this every day!"
Hotaru chuckled.
Ichigo and Ringo soon awoke, and approached Senki and Matilda.
"I see you both are ready for school -gogo." Ichigo put her hands on her hips.
"Your first day of school! It sounds exciting -gogo!" Smiled Ringo, who then thought. "Wait a minute... did we forget something -gogo?"
Ichigo put a hand on her chin in thought before gasping. "Ah! Princess Senki! Before you leave, there is something we must inform you -gogo!"
Senki turned to Ichigo. "What is it?"
At first, Ichigo hesitated to tell her. As snappy and temperamental as she was, the Pixie of Strawberries was afraid of ruining the princess' excitement. Her face turned red as a tomato as she balled her hands into fists and squeezed her teeth.
"Ichigo? Is everything okay?" Matilda looked at the tiny Pixie worriedly.
But the Pixie finally let it out...
"FAIRIES CANNOT GO TO SCHOOL -GOGO!!!"
Immediate shock was seen in Senki's face as her eyes were like tiny dots.
"Eh-?!"
Hotaru gasped. "Oh no..."
Tears filled Senki's eyes. "B-but... I wanted to go!"
"That is right." Matilda frowned. "If anybody notices the Princess like this, they will have suspicions that she comes from a different world.
Our secret will be out to the public sooner rather than later."
"BUT I WANTED TO GO!!!" Senki cried, her tears were like twin waterfalls. "WAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!"
"S-Senki-san!" Hotaru tried to comfort her. "Don't worry! I'm sure we'll find a solution!
I-I know! We can cover your ears with your hair!"
"Ichigo..." Ringo whispered and nudged his sister's shoulder. "You did forget something else -gogo."
Ichigo stared at her sibling. "Wait, I did? What did I forget -gogo?"
The pixie was trying to hard to remember, until she did.
"Oh! That is it -gogo!" She shouted loud enough for the girls to turn their attention to her.
Senki stopped crying. "Eh?"
"You may not be able to go to school looking like that -gogo! HOWEVER!" Ichigo exclaimed.
"However?" The girls repeated.
Ichigo pointed at herself, smirking. "We have been granted permission from the Queen herself to use a special magical power EXCLUSIVELY for Princess Senki -gogo!"
"A power for me?" Senki blinked.
"Yes! We were given the power to make you human -gogo!" Said Ringo. "We can achieve this using Fae Dust -gogo!"
The Pixies hurried to retrieve the Fae Pad, approaching Senki once they did.
"We can use the Fae Pad to check on your Fairy Energy level -gogo. The more Fairy Energy you wield, the more power you possess -gogo!" Ringo explained.
"The Outlaws continue their search for Fairy Energy. It is crucial for us to constantly check Princess Senki's Fairy Energy level and find ways to increase it fast." Said Matilda.
"Retrieving Fairy Energy from the Dungeonborgs can help increase the Princess' Fairy Energy level -gogo." Said Ringo. "Princess Senki's Fae Brace is now linked to the Fae Pad, so we can see how much Fairy Energy she has recovered and read its level easily -gogo."
Matilda nodded. "Somehow the Outlaws have found a way to use Fairy Energy to strengthen their Dungeonborgs, so if we recover that Fairy Energy, they will be easier to purify."
"That's right!" Said Hotaru. "When I hit that Black Dice the time I faced that Dungeonborg, Fairy Energy began spewing out.
It seems the Outlaws are using Fairy Energy that was previously stolen from the Princess."
Hearing this, Senki turned to the Pixies.
"Scan away!"
Senki stood confidently, hands on her hips and a big smile on her face. The pixies activated the Fae Pad's scanning feature by rolling a dice below the screen to check Senki's Fairy Energy Level.
"Scanning -gogo!"
After a few seconds, a figure that resembled Senki appeared on the pad's screen, and below it, a number six.
"Princess Senki's Fairy Energy appears to be at Level 6 -gogo." Said Ichigo.
Matilda rested a hand on her chin, looking at the results on screen. "Not too bad, but not too high either."
Ichigo pointed a finger upward. "Still, once past Level 5, the Princess should be able to summon some amount of Fae Dust by herself -gogo!"
"Fae Dust?" Senki blinked. "The magic in the pouch?"
"Yes -gogo!" Ichigo nodded. "This requires training and focus! So, once you finish school, we will show you the ropes -gogo!"
"For now, we will use the Fae Dust we have left to make you human -gogo." Said Ringo.
Senki moved backward in her seat, utterly surprised. "Me? A human?!"
Hotaru smiled. "That means you'll have normal ears just like us humans, Senki-san."
"You will not have to worry about your pointy ears or your wings as long as you're in human form." Matilda replied. "You will be as one of the humans of this world. You will turn back into a Fairy if you transform with the Treasure Pact.
But I must remind you that no other humans besides Yuko-san, Moriko-san and Hotaru-san can see you using your powers, nor can they know about us being Precure. It is important to keep it a secret."
"So I can go to school as a human?!" Senki's smile grew big. "That is epic epic! I want to be human already!"
"Ahem!" Ichigo cleared her throat. "Just remember, Princess! As a human you cannot use Fae Dust or summon your wings -gogo. Once you transform into a Precure, you will turn back into a Fairy, so we will be right there to turn you into a human again if necessary -gogo." She gestured to Ringo. "Now, Ringo, the Fae Dust -gogo!"
"Yes -gogo!" Ringo flew by with the pouch full of Fae Dust and approached his sibling.
Together, holding some of the Fae Dust in hand, chanted...
"Fae Dust, grant the Princess a human form -gogo!"
...and flew in circles around the fairy princess. She looked around herself, admiring the magic of Fae Dust as her long, pointy ears magically turned smaller and round.
"Look! Her ears are just like ours!" Hotaru exclaimed, pointing at Senki's ears.
"...huh?"
Senki blinked and quickly ran to a mirror to see her reflection, and touched her ears.
"I have human ears..."
"The magic worked -gogo!" Ichigo and Ringo cheered!
RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!
An alarm clock rang and shook, alerting both the girls and the Pixies alike.
"Eh?"
"Oh my! It's almost that time!" Hotaru stood from the table. "You must leave for school right away."
This increased Senki's joy as she ran back to the girls, school bag in hand.
"YAY! Epic epic first day of school, here we go!"
...
Senki admired the colors of Everspring Town, a big smile plastered on her face as she walked beside Matilda to school.
Recently the people had begun putting up decorations for the start of the autumn season.
"Wow! This town gets even more epic epic every time!"
Matilda smiled. "Indeed, Princess. While it is much different from Faeland, it has its own charms."
There were many buildings and the people crowded the streets. It was a busy day as some people worked in the streets with the decorations.
"It seems to get busier as days go by as well." Matilda thought. "I wonder why..."
"Eh?!" Senki perked up when she realized...
"Matilda-san, is this the way to school?"
"Eh?" Matilda blinked, and took out a folded paper with the map of Everspring Town which was provided by Hotaru herself.
"Oh no... I think we got lost."
Senki flailed her arms in utter desperation.
"EEEEEEEEEH?!?! IF WE DO NOT HURRY NOW WE WILL BE LATE!!!"
"Hey! Is that the girl we saw at the shop the other day?" A familiar voice spoke loudly.
"Eh?" Senki and Matilda looked over to find the owner of the voice.
It was the group of girls that Senki met back at Hotaru's shop.
"It IS her! She's going to our school!" Said Hanako.
"Hey, Senki-san!"
The four girls ran to greet Senki with joy. Senki, who was also happy to see them, waved.
"Hey, everyone! Good morniiiiiiiing!"
"Good morning, Senki-san!" The four bowed together as soon as they approached the two.
"May I ask, did something happen, Senki-san?" Asked Mia. "We heard you yelling from across the street that you'd be late."
"Apologies." Matilda frowned. "We got lost on our way to school. May you guide us?"
"A new exchange high school student?!" Minako smiled. "Of course, Miss! Anything to help!"
The girls immediately showed them the way to school, walking together in front of Senki and Matilda.
"We just heard that the Everspring High School hasn't had new exchange students in a while!" Said Rika. "Everyone will be so excited to see a new face!"
"I am honored, truly." Matilda smiled warmly. "I wish to learn your ways and improve myself."
"What's your name?" Asked Hanako.
"Matilda. Matilda Gouriki." Matilda responded.
"AMAZING!!!" Shouted a smiling Minako. "With your boldness and your appearance, you look like you'd be incredible in sports!"
"Sports?" Matilda tilted her head a bit.
"Yes!" Mia nodded. "Every school teaches sports! There is basketball, soccer, baseball and more! There are sports clubs that you can join after school as well!"
"I will look forward to it. It sounds much interesting." Matilda smiled once more.
The girls smiled, and so did Senki.
"We will be cheering you on all the way, Matilda-san!" Said Senki.
Matilda chuckled. "Thank you, Senki-san."
"So, Senki-san, how did your costume practice go?" Asked Minako.
"It was epic epic! Now that I have human ears I..."
"Senki-san..." Matilda was quick to stop her, and Senki froze. So did the girls, who looked back at her.
"Eh...?"
"Ah! Um... I mean, I..." Senki sweatdropped nervously, and looked away.
"Senki-san has been practicing for months for next year's performance. Since she starts school today, practices will be postponed." Matilda made up such story so that the thought of Senki being a fairy would swiftly escape the girls' minds.
"Ah, I see!" Said Minako, smiling. "Well, I wish you the best of luck on your performance!"
Senki smiled nervously, stuttering. "Th-thank you, Minako-san!"
"We're almost at school, everyone!" Said Rika.
As the girls continued their walk to school, more and more students began to appear.
Matilda then whispered to Senki...
"Senki-san, remember not to tell anyone about this, okay?"
Senki looked away, completely nervous. "Y-yes, Matilda-san."
The other rested a hand on her shoulder to ease her. "You will be fine, I am sure of it."
"...?" Senki looked up at Matilda, who smiled down at her. Senki smiled in return and nodded.
"Thank you, Matilda-san."
MEANWHILE, AT TENGOKU'S LAIR, DUNGEON ISLAND...
Inside the eerie lair, Tengoku, in the crystallized chamber, witnessed the return of the Brawler.
The Outlaw's sturdy feet stomped on the soil, leaving behind a trail of cracked steps.
"One more step and this lair knocks itself down." Tengoku muttered and scoffed.
"Precure..."
The Brawler tightened his shaking fist as he growled in utter frustration at the thought of his Dungeonborg's defeat.
"To think they single-handedly defeated my mightiest Dungeonborg..."
He clenched his teeth.
"They are much stronger than any of us think, Tengoku-sama."
Tengoku hissed under his breath. "It seems you have underestimated this... Cure Ruby... and got your part of the Fairy Energy stolen from you."
His eye sharply glanced at his subject.
"And for that, Brawler, your role on Earth is suspended."
The Brawler gasped, eyes going big. "Gah! But... T-Tengoku-sama! I have yet another strong Dungeonborg at my disposal! If you allow me-"
"Brutal strength will not be needed at this moment, Brawler." Said a new voice belonging to a shorter male.
In his hand was a powered Black Dice, its interior glowing with Fairy Energy.
The Brawler turned to him and grimaced. "HEY! That is MY Black Dice!!!"
"Not anymore." The male, whose face was shaded by his cloak, chuckled mockingly.
"Tch." The Brawler hissed in the other's direction, throwing a glare of pure hatred.
The enigmatic Outlaw glanced up at his imprisoned leader.
"Tengoku-sama, I believe we need a much different approach to pulverize the Precure. That which I have concocted while my poor, poor fellow Outlaw counterparts faced them on Earth."
His voice was nothing short of sinister. In his hand he held a diminutive vial which held a dark substance.
"And to your fortune, it is finally complete!"
Taking his other hand to chest, he grinned.
If you allow me, Tengoku-sama, I will take the Brawler's place and travel to the human world. Only then I can use this experiment against the Precure and capture the Princess of Faeland."
"Tch."
His leader glared down at him. "I entrust his role to you now, Alchemist. You shall prove to me that you will defeat the Precure.
If you fail me, I will have no choice but to send out my second-in-command."
The Outlaw kneeled down and bowed his head. "It will be done as you wish, Tengoku-sama."
Afterwards, Tengoku used his power to open a portal to Earth, and the Outlaw walked through it...
AT EVERSPRING TOWN...
Soon the girls arrived at the junior high school and its neighboring high school. Senki's eyes could not be wider. Lots of students walked past the gates, some parking their bikes at the parking stations near the school.
There was a lot of chatter between the students, everything around Senki was bright and vivid!
Her smile widened.
"A human school! It is absolutely epic epic!"
She quickened her pace past the school gate, while Matilda stopped.
"Senki-san."
"Yes." Senki turned to Matilda.
"You must go with the girls to the school. I cannot enter with you past this gate."
"Eh?" Senki was confused as she walked towards Matilda. "Why not?
Eh?!"
It was then when Senki noticed Matilda's uniform was different from her own. Senki's uniform consisted of a white shirt, a pink ribbon, a green vest, a brown blazer, a green skirt with two brown stripes, green socks and brown shoes, and a green school bag with pink on the edges.
Matilda's school uniform consisted of a white shirt, a pink tie, a black vest, a gray blazer, a pink skirt with a singular gray stripe, gray socks and black shoes. Her school bag was gray with pink on its edges.
"Why is your uniform not the same as mine?!" Senki exclaimed. "I thought we were going to the same school, together!"
"Because of my age, Hotaru signed me up at the neighboring high school."
Her expression softened. Truly, she was worried about Senki, but she had a plan.
"But please, do not worry. We can meet each other outside once school ends for the day and return to Hotaru's house."
The poor princess began to shake. "B-b-but! This school place is too big! I might get lost on my own!"
Matilda shook her head. "Do not worry. The girls will show you around. And, Ichigo will stay by your side. Ringo will stay with me at the neighboring high school.
Should you need assistance, use the Fae Brace and tell Ichigo to find Ringo. I will be right there to help you."
Senki's lips quivered, she was about to sob, and tightly hugged Matilda.
"...!" Matilda froze for a moment before returning the embrace to the princess.
"Thank you, Matilda-san!"
"Of course." Matilda smiled. "You have nothing to worry about, Princess."
Soon they withdrew. The students were hurrying towards the building once the bells rang.
"Hurry, hurry! To the auditorium!" A student called out.
"Now, you must go." Matilda said. "School is about to start for both of us."
"Yes!" Senki nodded.
"Senki-san, come this way!" Called Rika as she waved, the others standing beside her, waiting for Senki.
"I will see you later, Matilda-san!"
Senki ran towards the four, waving goodbye to her dear friend.
"Bye bye!"
Matilda waved with a smile before turning to walk to the neighboring high school, where she was quickly noticed by the other students. They were very excited to have a newcomer.
"Hey, look! Who is she?" A girl whispered.
"She's certainly not from around here." Said a boy.
"A new exchange student?! For real?!" Another girl exclaimed with excitement.
"Good morning." Matilda approached a group of three. "I am Matilda Gouriki. It is nice to meet you." She greeted them with a bow.
"Matilda Gouriki?" A girl with black hair smiled. "Welcome to the Everspring High School, Gouriki-san! Please, let us guide you to the auditorium!"
"Please." Matilda smiled and joined the group.
...
The girls went ahead of Senki to the auditorium. But Senki slowed her steps until coming to a stop, taking a shaky breath.
Since there was nobody else around, Ichigo took the chance to fly out of Senki's Fae Brace and talk to her.
"What is wrong -gogo?"
"I am nervous. Very nervous!" Senki's hands shook. "Without Matilda-san or the others, I do not know what to do!"
Senki held the tiny Pixie's hands and shook her.
"What should I do, Ichigo?!"
"Princess Senki!" Ichigo snapped, holding her tiny hands onto the princess' fingers.
"Please -gogo. Get a hold of yourself."
From her pocket she took out a singular magic berry to offer to Senki.
"Here, take this -gogo."
"A magic berry?" Senki looked at the fruit in her hands.
"Remember, eating one will help you feel better -gogo." Said Ichigo.
Senki nodded. "Thank you, Ichigo." And then she ate the magic fruit. Instantly, a smile returned to her face.
"Wow! I feel epic epic again!"
The Pixie swiftly flew back to Senki's Fae Brace to hide for the moment.
"Now, go to that large hall and introduce yourself -gogo!" Said Ichigo. "An exciting day of learning is about to begin -gogo!"
With confidence and a big smile, Senki pumped a fist. "Yes!"
LATER, AT THE AUDITORIUM...
Every student gathered up at the school meeting in the auditorium, where an important announcement took place.
"Starting this day, we'll have an exchange student joining us. Please allow me to introduce her.
Come forth, Hanaoka-san!"
As the student council president gestured at Senki to walk to the stage, the confident fairy princess made her appearance before everyone.
"Who is she?" A boy asked.
"I have no idea." Another responded.
"It's Senki-san!" Minako waved.
Once standing near the podium, the student council president spoke.
"Now, Hanaoka-san, please introduce yourself."
Nodding, Senki stepped up to the podium and cleared her throat.
"Everyoooooone, good morniiiiiiing!" Her voice was so loud, she was impressed when it became louder due to the speakers around the auditorium.
Some of the kids flinched at her loud voice.
"Wow! It is so loud!" She grabbed the microphone in her hands, inspecting it.
"Hanaoka-san." The student council president called. "Please speak more softly."
"Huh?!" Senki perked up, placing the microphone back in its stand before bowing. "A-a-ah! My apologies!"
Clearing her throat once more and standing up straight, Senki spoke.
"My name is Senki Hanaoka, and I am a new student to this school."
Once more the students murmured to themselves.
"Senki Hanaoka? It sounds like the name of a flower fairy princess! So cool!" Said a girl.
"Hanaoka-san comes from overseas, so some things might be new for her." Said the student council president, who then turned to Senki. "May I ask which country are you from, Hanaoka-san?"
"I am from Faeland!"
She responded with much confidence, so much that she forgot she was in a human school, not a fairy school.
Her pupils shrank in pure shock.
"Oh no! I mentioned Faeland! What should I do?!"
"Faeland?" Some kids muttered.
"What country is that?" Rika asked the girls.
"I don't know." Said Minako.
"Maybe she meant Finland?" Asked Hanako.
"Maybe so!" Replied Mia.
"Perhaps you mean Finland?" Asked the student council president, to which Senki quickly nodded.
"Y-yes, yes! That is it! Finland!"
"Whew! At least nobody knows about Faeland now." Senki thought, and sighed, before continuing.
MEANWHILE...
Matilda also introduced herself to the students of the high school.
"My goal is to improve myself, and I look forward to learning new subjects alongside all of you.
I am proficient in martial arts and athletics. I trained for years in a place outside Everspring Town. I look forward to learning the traditions and customs of this school."
"I KNEW she'd be good in sports!" Said the girl from before.
"Hey, do you think she might participate in tournaments one day?" Asked the boy.
"Undoubtedly! She'd make a great sports team leader!" The other girl replied.
Matilda smiled warmly.
...
"I wish to learn lots of things at this school. I like things that are interesting and epic epic!" Smiled Senki.
"'Epic epic'?" Hanako looked over at her friends.
"What a cool phrase!" Said Rika, who grinned.
Both Senki and Matilda concluded their introductions by bowing and saying...
"Everyone, it is nice to meet you!"
Everyone clapped. The junior high school students for Senki and the high school students for Matilda, their new exchange student.
Senki was so excited! Her smile never faltered, her heart overflowed with joy!
"The start of an epic epic school adventure starts now!!!"
...
The bells rang as the students walked to their respective homerooms. Senki was assigned to the first class of the third year, and she was running late!
"Oh no, oh no, oh no! I will be late!!" She yelled, running all the way past the corridors.
"Hanaoka-san?"
"WAAH!"
Senki immediately skidded to a stop upon hearing a girl's voice. When she turned, she saw it was the student council president.
"A-ah! It is you from the... uhh... that big place where everyone was!"
"You cannot run through the corridors of this school." Said the student council president, who walked towards Senki.
The fairy princess gasped and quickly bowed in apologies.
"Ah! I-I am so sorry! I-it is just... I-I will be late for class!" She stuttered nervously.
"If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to find me." Said the other.
"I'm Reika Yamamoto, the school's student council president.
I take it you haven't found your homeroom yet?"
Senki shook her head. "I have not."
Reika nodded. "It's okay. I will help you find your homeroom. Please follow me."
And so, the two walked to Senki's homeroom, Senki following Reika down the corridors.
"Thank you! Thank you so much! I am so excited to start learning!"
"Should you wish to join a club, feel free to visit my office in the afternoon. You can choose and join a club after school ends for the day." Reika said.
"Really? It sounds epic epic!" The ecstatic Senki grinned.
"'Epic epic?'" Reika smiled. "That's right!
I hope that you are able to learn lots in this school, Hanaoka-san!"
"Me too!" Senki hopped. "I cannot wait to begin!"
LATER...
It was time for the first class! All students stood to greet the teacher.
"Good morning, students!" The teacher, an energetic woman, smiled.
"Good morning, Sensei!" The students greeted.
"I hope you all had a great summer break! I am ready to continue teaching one of the most intriguing subjects in this school called...
...English.
The students then sat on their desks before the teacher continued.
"Now, before we begin, I'd like to introduce a new student. She will be joining our class from this moment on."
The teacher turned to the door, and called out...
"You may come in now, Hanaoka-san!"
...but Senki was not yet there.
"Hanaoka-san?" The teacher stayed looking towards the door until it quickly slid open, revealing Senki herself. Reika previously gave her the direction to her homeroom before leaving to attend her own class on time.
"Apologies, Sensei!" Said Senki with a strong, bold voice. "The student council president gave me directions!
At first I got a little lost, but then the numbers near each door told me which class is my homeroom!"
"Ah! Senki-san is in the same class as us!" Smiled Mia upon noticing.
"That's wonderful! Now all five of us will get to study and learn together!" Said a smiling Hanako.
The students murmured and smiled to each other. A girl with brown eyes and short hair with a shade of burgundy looked over at Senki from her seat.
"Huh?"
The door slid closed as Senki stepped into the classroom, standing in front of everyone present.
"This is it! Time to be epic epic!" Senki thought with utmost confidence.
"Now, Hanaoka-san, please write your name on the board and introduce yourself!" Said the teacher.
"Okay!"
Taking a chalk, Senki wrote her name on the board.
But instead of writing her name just as the other students do, she wrote her name across the ENTIRE board.
"Eeh?!" Every student's eyes widened and their jaws dropped.
"She wrote it TOO big!" A boy nearly screamed.
Standing beside the teacher, Senki smiled and introduced herself.
And out of excitement, she spoke rather quickly.
"My name is Senki Hanaoka! I met everyone at the big auditorium place today! I love, love, LOVE Everspring Town and am so excited to learn new things in this epic epic place called school!"
"She's talking too quickly." A girl said.
"She seems very happy to be here!" Another smiled.
"I want to join clubs and study along with all of you! Everyone, it is nice to meet you!" Senki then bowed.
Everyone clapped after her introduction, and the fairy princess smiled.
"Hehe!"
Shortly after, the teacher spoke to her.
"You can take a seat now, Hanaoka-san."
"Yes!"
"Senki-san, over here!" Minako waved from her seat, there was an empty seat just in between her seat and Rika's, which were on the corner next to the window.
The fairy princess walked to her seat and sat down. It was then when she noticed the short-haired girl looking at her.
"...!" The girl soon noticed and quickly looked away.
"Hey, hey! Who is the girl with the short hair?" Senki whispered to Minako, who sat in front of her.
"Ah! That's Akari Mitsumoto! Her mother's the nurse of this school!" Said Minako. "She's very knowledgeable in healing remedies and soaps! Her father runs a shop in Central Everspring Town!
Plus, she's the smartest and the most popular girl in the entire school!"
Akari wrote some notes on her textbook as the teacher continued the lesson.
"I once asked her to help me with my math homework, and she agreed to teach me!" Said Mia, who sat to the right from Senki.
"What is a 'math'?" Senki rose a brow.
"You'll see! Math class is super interesting!" Said Rika.
MEANWHILE...
A strange figure walked past the two schools, wearing a cloak over his head to cover his face.
He was the Alchemist, one of the Outlaws working for Tengoku.
"Everspring Town, eh?"
His teeth shone as he grinned behind the shadow of his cloak, a singular powered Black Dice in hand as he looked over in direction to the junior high school.
"So... this is where the Fairy Energy is."
LATER, SECOND CLASS...
At math class, the students watched as Senki wrote an answer on the board.
"Huuuh...?"
She ended up writing lots and lots of letters and symbols across the board before turning to the teacher.
"That is it! I am done!" She responded with a confident smile, hoping it was the correct answer.
The teacher analyzed the answer on the board and shook his head.
"Hmm... I am afraid that is incorrect, Hanaoka-san."
Senki's eyes widened. "Eh?"
"Mitsumoto-san, do you know the answer?" The teacher turned to Akari.
"Yes."
The short-haired girl stepped up, promptly writing the correct answer on the board. Senki watched in admiration as Akari wrote the scribbles on the board before setting the chalk down.
"Excellent work, Mitsumoto-san!" Said the teacher.
The students were in awe by Akari's intelligence and cheered.
"Uuuuugh..." Senki frowned and sighed.
...
"What is this sort of thing?"
At science class, Senki was befuddled by all the scribbles on the board.
"Who can tell me the correct answer to this?" The teacher asked.
But despite her confusion, Senki raised her hand to provide the answer. She was determined to learn!
"Yes, Hanaoka-san."
Senki walked to the board. Then, just as before, she wrote lots and lots of scribbles on it. The students watched as she did this.
"I am done!" Senki smiled!
The teacher turned to the board and then back to Senki.
"That is incorrect, Hanaoka-san."
"Eh?!" Senki's eyes grew big.
"Please, allow me..."
Once more, Akari stepped up and wrote the correct answer.
"That is correct, Mitsumoto-san!" Said the teacher.
Immediately, the students crowded the space in the classroom, asking Akari for help with some difficulties that they had within the lesson.
"Akari-san, can you please help me with this?" Asked Mia while holding out her textbook.
"Uuuuugh!" Senki frowned once more, sitting down on her desk.
LATER... FOURTH LESSON...
"Today we will be learning about musical instruments." The music teacher introduced the students to the harp.
Senki smiled big.
"Wow! It is just like the one Yuko-san has, but much bigger!"
"Yuko-san?" Mia turned to Senki, who explained.
"Ah! Yuko-san is a friend of mine! She plays the harp as well!"
"This here is a harp, one of the oldest instruments in the world." Said the teacher. "This particular harp is a concert grade, with a total of 47 strings and pedals which can change the strings' tones.
Now, who would like to be the first to try it?"
"Me! Me! Me, please!" Senki jumped excitedly.
The teacher nodded. "All right, Hanaoka-san, please step forth."
The teacher helped Senki position herself properly on the seat and leaned the harp back against her right shoulder. Senki's smile never ceased, it was easily her favorite instrument!
"Your left hand will play the lower strings while your right hand plays the higher strings. Both hands can easily play the middle and high strings as well." The teacher explained. "Now, Hanaoka-san, are you ready to play your first song?"
"Oh! I know one! The Song of the Heart!" Said the excited Senki.
The students murmured amongst themselves once more.
"Song of the Heart?"
"I never heard of it. It sounds nice!"
The curious Akari listened to Senki as she spoke.
"It is a song that my friend plays after work!" Said Senki. "One time she played this song, and then I fell asleep!
I believe it goes something like this..."
Positioning her fingers onto the strings, Senki tried to play the song she heard from Yuko... but she harshly plucked on the strings and the way her fingers performed the plucking action was incorrect.
This resulted in a loud, buzzy song instead of a serene one like Yuko's.
Senki had much to learn about the harp.
"Uuuugh... it did not sound like this at all!" Senki frowned again.
LATER...
"Morning lessons are done... I am starving..."
It was lunch break, and Senki sat on a corner outside, taking out the bento that Hotaru prepared for her. Succulent layers of meat with a salad and rice balls. She prepared a Vigorous Meal!
"Vigorous Meal! My favorite!" Senki smiled big! "Thank you for the meal!"
But before she took the first bite...
"Pssst! Princess. Princess!" Ichigo whispered from the screen in the Fae Brace in Senki's wrist.
"...!" Senki quietly gasped. Holding her wrist up, she whispered. "Not here, Ichigo!"
"Once you finish eating, go someplace where no one can hear you -gogo!" Ichigo said quietly.
"Yes."
...
After finishing her meal, Senki took her bag and walked to the less crowded area in the school's corridors. It was then when Ichigo flew out of the Fae Brace to talk to her.
"Ichigo, what is it?" Senki looked at the tiny Pixie.
"The nurse's daughter -gogo!" Ichigo exclaimed. "That girl in your class! Her great intelligence gives her the potential to become the Precure of light and healing -gogo!"
Senki's eyes grew big. "Eh?! You mean Mitsumoto-san, the smartest girl in the entire school?!"
Ichigo nodded. "Yes -gogo! Approach her once classes end so I can deliver the Treasure Pact to her -gogo!"
"Eeh?! H-how am I supposed to do that?! I do not even know her yet!" Senki yelled.
"Why not start a conversation with her -gogo?" Ichigo suggested. "Ask her for help with your lessons -gogo."
Senki groaned desperately, balling her fists, not knowing what to do.
"Hanaoka-san?" Reika approached.
"WAAAH!!!" She jumped, her hair frizzing up in a silly way before she turned to the other.
Thankfully Ichigo hid in the Fae Brace at the right moment, but Senki freaked out, thinking Reika discovered her secret. But the student council president was confused by Senki's reaction.
"S-student council president!"
Reika tilted her head. "Are you okay, Hanaoka-san?
If there is something you wish to talk about, do not hesitate."
"U-uh... no! I am fine!" Senki chuckled nervously. "I was merely thinking about today's lessons is all! It is all epic epic!"
"I am glad." Reika smiled warmly. "Keep up the good work, and you might become one of Everspring Junior High School's students of the month."
"A student of the month?" Senki blinked. "What is a student of the month?"
"It's an award given to students who have outstanding performance in many areas of this school's education."
"An award? Epic epic!" Senki hopped with joy. "I will do my very best!"
Reika chuckled. "I admire your determination, Hanaoka-san."
She stepped forth to leave.
"Well then, there are duties I must tend to. Do not forget to go to class on time."
Senki nodded and smiled. "Yes! Thank you, Reika-san!"
Once Reika left, Senki turned the opposite way, walking to find Akari.
"All right! Now, to find Mitsumoto-san!"
But the school bells rang. It was time for class!
"Waah! Class is starting!"
She walked her way back to class!
...
For the last lesson of the day, it was PE!
For the PE lesson, Senki wore her own sports uniform and had her hair tied up in a ponytail. She and her classmates stood to greet their teacher.
"Good afternoon, students!"
"Good afternoon, Sensei!" The students said in unison and bowed.
The coach, a female, instructed the lesson.
"For the first lesson, we will start by doing stretches and warmup exercises."
She briefly demonstrated to the students the various stretching exercises, and soon everyone followed her instruction.
"First, we will be stretching our body. This is an important part of every exercise as it aids in muscle health, flexibility and performance."
At that point every student practiced their leg flexibility, some doing the splits, and Senki attempted to do so as well.
But she was having a hard time.
"I... cannot... do it!"
She could only stretch a tad.
"Senki-san, take it one step at a time." Said Minako. "Flexibility takes time and practice."
Letting out an aggravated sigh, Senki plopped to the soil.
"Ugh."
...
"Next is laps around the gymnasium."
The group of students ran several laps around the gym, with Senki being on the very back.
It was the first time she tried jogging, so she was having a hard time keeping up with her classmates.
"Hah, hah... this is terrible." She panted. "Very... very... terrible..."
But Ichigo spoke from the Fae Brace in Senki's wrist.
"Princess, try to keep up -gogo! Your workout now will make a big impact in your future performance as a Precure -gogo!"
"Does it now?" Senki breathed heavily. She was already sweating and pacing slower.
"It has only been one round and now..."
She kept going, trying to catch up with the other students, but couldn't.
"Try to keep up, Princess! You can do it -gogo!"
LATER...
As the students took a moment to rest, Senki continued practicing stretching while her classmates sat close by.
"Waaaah! Everything is so hard! So not epic epic!" Senki cried as she stretched her arms upward.
"Senki-san, it's barely your first day." Said Rika, trying to cheer her up. "You'll get the gist of everything in due time. You just need to study and continue learning at class.
Although at first it surprised me that you knew some things about the harp in music class."
Senki's sad expression transformed into a smile. "Ah! It is because my friend Yuko-san plays the harp! Yuko-san is a great... no, an EPIC EPIC musician! She plays the most calming songs in town!"
"By chance, does Yuko-san work with Miss Hotaru at the collectibles shop?" Minako asked.
"Yes! She does!" Senki nodded as she stretched a little more before doing little jumps, preparing herself to run a few more laps around the gymnasium.
"Anyways, Senki-san, how about we study together some time after school?" Asked Hanako. "We can teach you everything we have learned so far!"
"Sounds great to me!" Said Mia.
"I agree!" Said Minako.
"It's settled then!" Rika tapped her palm with a fist. "Starting today we'll show Senki-san everything we've learned!"
"Yeah!" The girls pumped a fist to the air.
Senki smiled at their idea, it was a great plan to help improve her learning.
Tapping the ground with the tip of her shoe, the fairy princess showed utmost optimism as she looked ahead.
"Study after school? Amazing!"
And she took off!
"What an epic epic ide- WAAAAAH!!!"
The students gasped. Senki tripped her foot and fell face-first, spraining her ankle in the process.
"...!
Senki-san!"
Everyone quickly approached, concerned for Senki. The coach helped Senki sit up. She winced in pain, squeezing her teeth and shutting her eyes closed.
"Oh my! Is she okay?" Mia asked worriedly. She, Hanako, Rika and Minako kneeled down beside Senki.
The poor fairy princess clutched her ankle, groaning.
"Ouchie..."
"Senki-san, your ankle!" Minako gasped.
"Everyone, please step aside." Another female's voice said.
The students moved aside as Akari Mitsumoto approached and kneeled beside Senki, looking at the ankle she tightly clutched.
"It's okay. May I see?" She asked Senki, who nodded shakily.
Senki stopped clutching her ankle. Carefully, Akari removed the shoe and inspected the ankle for any injuries.
A sharp pain coursed through Senki's ankle, and she cried out loud.
"WAAAAH! It hurts!!!"
"Oh no!" Rika gasped. "Poor Senki-san!"
"A sprained ankle." Said Akari. "Don't worry, I can take you to the nurse's office and help you out."
Gently, Akari helped Senki stand, then wrapped Senki's arm behind her neck for support.
"Th-thank you." Senki looked over at the other. "You are...?"
"Akari." Akari smiled at Senki. "Akari Mitsumoto, the nurse's daughter.
It's nice to finally meet you, Senki Hanaoka."
LATER, AT THE NURSE'S OFFICE...
Akari slid the door open and helped Senki walk inside.
Senki let out a sigh. She felt bad after her fall.
"Uuuugh... so not epic epic at all."
The nurse walked towards the two once spotting them. "Akari-chan! What brings you here?"
"Hanaoka-san sprained her ankle. She needs a bed." Said Akari.
Senki lowered her head, sighing.
"We have a bed for her to sit." The nurse prepared the bed before gesturing to Senki. "Here, please let me help you."
Along with Akari, the nurse proceeded to help Senki sit on the bed. "Carefully now." She said as Senki slowly sat down.
Akari helped place her injured foot on the bed very gently before retrieving an elevation cushion.
"I'm going to elevate your ankle now, Senki-san."
She proceeded to elevate Senki's foot and place it on the cushion. But once again, Senki yelled.
"OUCHIEEEEE!!"
Senki let out heavy breaths, lying down on the bed. The nurse carefully examined her ankle.
"Oh dear... your ankle appears to be swollen, Hanaoka-san."
Akari placed a hand on the fairy princess' shoulder for support.
"...?" Senki looked up at her.
"It's okay, Hanaoka-san. My mother and I will help you." Said Akari.
...
Akari was done with the bandaging when she spoke to Senki, gently applying an ice bag to help with the swelling.
"It's very important to watch your step."
Senki let out a sigh. "I know. I was...
...I was too excited for this day, and I totally ruined it!"
Lowering her head, she muttered...
"So much for an epic epic school adventure."
"Hey..." Once more Akari rested a hand on Senki's shoulder. The fairy princess turned to look at her.
"...?" Senki blinked.
"...it's okay." Akari smiled.
Akari then put the supplies away in the first-aid kit before walking back to the side of the bed where Senki was.
"You'll get where you want to be, Senki-san. You must give yourself time."
". . ." Senki sighed. "It will take millions of years until then."
Akari chuckled wholeheartedly. "Trust me when I say practice makes perfect. I do it all the time!"
"Eh?! But..." Senki blinked. "You are the smartest girl in school! You know all the answers and everyone in class looks up to you!"
"And how do you think I achieved that?" Akari glared at Senki.
"Eh?" The fairy princess stared blankly.
Akari looked away, taking a deep breath.
"You see, I study hard every day to become my mother's assistant. My goal one day is to become a nurse like her, or a doctor."
"It sounds epic epic! I am sure you will achieve your goal!" Senki had always believed in the talents of others and cheered her on.
"...?" Senki noticed Akari was not smiling but frowning.
"It can be very hard sometimes." She spoke with a silent voice. "Many times I have failed. I've had to do tests over and over, and put the correct answers after much study.
But..." Her demeanor changed to a soft smile. "...I have always kept going, never giving up.
Why? Because I think of my dream of helping others, and it motivates me every time to continue this adventure."
Senki's face brightened, and her smile grew.
"An epic epic adventure to become a doctor? Amazing!"
"...huh?" Akari looked at Senki. "Epic epic?" She smiled. "It surely is."
She turned to examine Senki's foot before looking back at her. "For now, you mustn't partake in sports until your ankle has healed. Mother has contacted your guardian to pick you up and take you home. You can rest here in the meantime."
It was then when the school bell rang. Senki looked up.
"Is school over?"
"Yes." Akari nodded. "It's about time to go home."
"Akari-chan?" Her mother opened the door to the office. "We're ready to go home. Hotaru-san has arrived to pick up your classmate."
Senki sat up, being careful not to hurt her injured foot. She turned to Akari.
"Mitsumoto-san, thank you for helping me!"
Akari smiled and shook her head. "Please, call me Akari."
Nodding, the fairy princess smiled big. "All right, Akari!"
"Senki-san!"
Hotaru arrived at the nurse's office and approached Senki.
"Senki-san, are you okay?"
"I am fine." Senki responded calmly. "My foot is a little sore, but I am okay!
Hotaru helped her stand, and before they left, Senki waved to Akari.
"See you later, Akari!"
Akari waved back with a smile. "Yes! Please take care of yourself, Senki-san!"
Moments after Akari and her mother left the office, Ichigo popped out of the Fae Brace in Senki's wrist.
"Princess Senki, now is our chance -gogo!" She whispered.
Senki looked down at the tiny Pixie. "The Treasure Pact and Key?"
"Yes!" The Pixie of Strawberries already had a Treasure Pact and Treasure Key in her hands. "I will put it in her school bag! I should not take long -gogo!"
Senki nodded twice. "Yes, yes! Go, and be careful!" She spoke quietly.
The average flight speed of Faelandian Pixies was two times faster than that of the average Faelandian Fairies. Ichigo made haste to place the Treasure Pact in Akari's school bag before she and her mother could depart the school and return home.
"Jeez! They left already -gogo?" Ichigo muttered. Akari and her mother were nowhere to be seen in the corridors.
...
Ichigo ended up flying out of the school, where in the distance she saw Akari and her mother getting ready to leave. They seemed to be discussing something as Akari's mother browsed into her purse for her cell phone.
"So, how was your time at school?" Her mother asked with a smile.
"It was fun! I helped lots of students solve difficult problems!" Said Akari.
"That's impressive, Akari-chan! Keep it up and you will become an excellent tutor!" Replied the mother.
"Thank you, Mother."
The Pixie hid behind the school gates and peeked over from behind a wall. Akari and her mom were still standing there, talking.
"Now, how about some omurice before we head home?" Asked the mother.
"Omurice? It sounds delicious!" Akari exclaimed full of joy.
"All right..." She spoke quietly. "...now is my chance -gogo!"
As Akari and her mother began to walk, Ichigo left her hiding spot to fly over to Akari's bag when suddenly...
"WAAH!"
A male's hand grabbed Ichigo! And she dropped the Treasure Pact and Key in the middle of the sidewalk!
"Why look at this! I found a Pixie in the sidewalk!"
"Huh?"
As Akari and her mother started walking, she heard the tinkling noises the compact and key made when they bounced on the soil and went back to the school gates to pick them up, inspecting both items carefully.
"What are these? They're so pretty!"
The Treasure Pact and Treasure Key shimmered in the sunlight as Akari held them in her hands.
"Did someone lose these items?"
"Akari!" Her mother called. "Let's go!"
"Ah! Yes, Mother!"
Akari quickly turned and ran back to walk with her mother, Treasure Pact and Key in hand before placing them safely in her pocket.
The Outlaw kept Ichigo in his hand as he hid on a corner of the school.
"You are not getting away this time, tiny Fruit Pixie." His sinister demeanor frightened Ichigo, but she kept a snappy, angry face.
"Alchemist!" Ichigo snapped at him, squirming to be let go. "Let me go this instant! THIS INSTANT -GOGO!"
...
"! ! !"
The tiny curls on the top of Ringo's hair twitched, and he gasped.
"Ichigo!"
The Pixie of Apples hastily flew out of Matilda's bag.
"Royal Knight Matilda! Ichigo has been captured -gogo!!!"
"...!" Matilda gasped. "That means an Outlaw is here."
She turned to the tiny Pixie.
"Ringo, let us make haste to Princess Senki's school."
Ringo nodded. "Yes -gogo!"
Both hurried in direction to the junior high school. Poor Ringo was already so worried about his sister.
"Hang in there, sis! We are coming -gogo!"
...
"What to use to carve a Dungeonborg, hmm?"
With a grin, the Alchemist looked around, holding the Black Dice closely for Ichigo to see.
"Look here, my little Pixie friend. This Black Dice is infused with your Princess' precious Fairy Energy."
Ichigo gasped. Since she and Ringo were the only ones in the team besides Senki to be able to use Fairy Energy, she could sense its power inside the corrupted Black Dice.
"Oh no! He has way more Fairy Energy than what the Brawler had -gogo!"
"I wonder..."
Reaching into his pocket, he retrieved the vial with the dark substance he carried before.
"Wh-what is that -gogo?!" Ichigo shivered upon looking at the vial.
The Alchemist cackled.
"With this, not only can I design a Dungeonborg and take more Fairy Energy from the Princess, but I can also put my newest concoction to the test."
His grin was wide, sharp teeth shining in the sunlight.
"Hehehe! Yes! The Precure will be my test subjects!"
Tossing the vial in the air, he summoned Dungeon Energy.
"Starting Point! Dungeon Energy, emerge!"
Then, the Alchemist threw the Black Dice at the vial.
"Time to work, Dungeonborg!"
As the Black Dice and the vial touched, Dungeon Energy surrounded both items, bringing forth a new monster. It had one regular arm, one cannon in its other arm and four legs. Its singular crimson eye opened and glowed.
"DUNGEONBORG!"
"WAAAAAH!!!"
Ichigo squirmed again, but the Alchemist laughed evilly.
"Marvel yourself upon my greatest creation, little Pixie!
No Precure will stand a chance against my mightiest Dungeonborg!"
"Ichigo!"
Upon hearing Ringo's voice, the tiny Pixie yelled out...
"Ringo! Royal Knight Matilda -gogo!"
Ringo and Matilda swiftly arrived at the scene. Ringo shook at the sight of the Dungeonborg.
"WAAH! A DUNGEONBORG -GOGO!!!"
He hid behind Matilda's shoulder. The poor thing was shaking badly, but Matilda reassured him.
"Do not worry, Ringo. We will save your sister."
"Ichigo!"
Soon Senki and Hotaru arrived as well. Senki's steps were slower due to her injured foot, but she was able to stand.
"Princess!" Matilda approached her, quickly noticing. "Are you alright? What happened?"
But Senki shook her head. "It matters not right now. We have to save Ichigo!"
"Princess!"
Yuko and Moriko soon arrived upon hearing news of the Dungeonborg's rising and went to help the girls.
"Yuko-san! Moriko-san!" Senki turned go them before looking back at the Outlaw and his underling.
Sharp, brown eyes and an expression of boldness as she took out her Treasure Pact, Key and PreCoin.
"Let us save Ichigo and purify this Dungeonborg!"
The rest of the team held out their items as well.
"Yes!"
Without them knowing, Akari was hiding a distance behind them, and watched as they prepared themselves.
"...huh?"
...
In a background of red, yellow, green, blue and pink, their outfits transformed into glowing gowns. Senki's and Hotaru's hair accessories disappeared in magic sparkles.
"Treasure Pact, Unlock!" All five chanted together, opening the Pact with the Key.
"PreCoin Insert! Venture!"
Senki inserted the PreCoin in the slot of the Pact, and the dice above it shone a pink light.
"Precure! Dice Roll Start!" Everyone chanted in unison and rolled the dice, the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 appearing in magical light. The group's insignia was then magically reflected in the Pact's mirror.
Flames engulfed Hotaru's arms to create her cuffs and leaves surrounded Moriko's feet, designing her boots.
"Tuneful crescendo!"
After rolling the dice, a ring of musical notes surrounded Yuko's gown to create her uniform, and a bubble rested onto the ribbon of Matilda's uniform, forming the brooch with the group's insignia when it popped.
"Epic epic change!"
Rolling the dice, a magical ring changed Senki's hair color as she spun, and twin braids weaved together, two ribbons tying at each end. Then more magic created the flowery circlet, earrings and necklace.
"Flames of courage! Cure Ruby! Stand courageous and humble!"
"Sprout of growth! Cure Leaf! May abundance grow as tall as trees!"
"Melody of the heart! Cure Bard! Listen to the song of your spirit!"
"Wave of calmness! Cure Paladin! Bathe yourself in deep tranquility!"
"Spirit of adventure! Cure Venture! Let the epic adventures begin!"
Together, the quintet posed.
"Epic Precure!"
...
"...!"
Akari gasped at what she saw. Her classmate as well as her friends were the Epic Precure! Their uniforms sparkled as their bright colors shimmered in the sunlight.
"Epic... Precure?" Her voice shook. Akari then looked down at the Treasure Pact and Key in her hands.
"Does that mean...?"
"Everyone, let us go!" Cure Venture commanded.
"Yes!" The girls nodded.
"Dungeonborg, get this over with." The Alchemist ordered.
His minion obeyed him and stomped towards the girls.
"DUNGEONBORG!"
"Haaa!!!"
With a battle cry, the five jumped towards the monster, performing a series of punches and kicks.
"Epic Combination Punch!"
All punched the monster at the same time. The force of their combined powers sent the monster off with a shockwave.
The Dungeonborg skidded to a stop and used its arm cannon to fire blasts of Dungeon Energy at the girls.
"Dungeonborg!"
BAM, BAM, BAM!
"Split up, everyone!" Said Paladin.
Quickly, the girls jumped before the blasts hit the ground. Splitting up, they used their individual powers against the Dungeonborg.
"Spread! Paladin Mist!"
Cure Paladin threw a water orb to the soil, and it exploded like a smoke bomb, blinding the monster completely.
"B-B-Borg?" The monster looked around, aiming its arm cannon, but was unable to see at all.
"Hmph." The Alchemist frowned at what he saw. Although he never moved a finger himself, he was starting to feel some ounce of frustration.
"Resonate! Bard Rhapsody!"
Cure Bard's sound barrier kept the Dungenborg from making another move.
"Dungeonboooooooooorg..." Its singular eye spiraled.
"Leaf, you're up!" Bard held her power for some time, giving Leaf the chance to use her own.
"Okay!
Dice Roll! Leaf!"
Inserting the Leaf PreCoin in the slot, Cure Leaf rolled the D20. A green light shone, rain of leaves spreading out like confetti, weaving together to form two chains which Cure Leaf held in hands.
"Surround!"
The leaf chains shone bright, and Leaf swung them back, prepared to attack.
"Precure! Leaf Chain!"
She swung the chains forward in a whip-like motion, trapping the monster in place.
"My turn!" Cure Ruby's hands were alit with flames. She ran forth and jumped high to the sky.
"Burst! Ruby Impact!!!"
Her strong punch and her power over fire created a potent blast and a dent on the ground. The Dungeonborg laid there, eye spiraling again.
"...booooorg."
"Cure Venture, use your power!" Cure Paladin called out to Cure Venture.
"Yes!
Dice Roll! Venture!"
Placing the Venture PreCoin on the slot, Cure Venture rolled the D20 once it glowed pink.
Magic swirled in her hands.
CLAP!
"Fly forth!"
The magic intensified and spewed around her hands as she chanted her attack's name...
"Precure! Epic Venture...
...Blast!"
With both hands forward, Cure Venture fired the magical blast at the Dungeonborg, and it was strong enough to push the monster back and crash to the soil.
"We did it!" Senki did little tiny hops of joy. "We did it! We did it! We did...
...is the Dungeonborg purified?" She suddenly turned to the girls in doubt.
"It doesn't seem to be changing back to normal yet." Pondered Moriko with a hand on chin.
Annoyed, the Alchemist scoffed and pointed a single digit ahead.
"So you think you have won, Precure."
"Dungeonborg..."
The monster's tone was accompanied with a low, menacing growl as it got to its feet. The Black Dice in its chest began to glow.
"Ngh!" Senki clutched her head.
"Princess!" Matilda ran to her side. "Are you okay? What is the matter?"
Senki looked ahead at the monster, albeit still in pain.
"I can feel its power...
It is... much stronger now."
"Princess Senki -gogo..." Ichigo knew what was going on and frowned worriedly.
The Alchemist laughed and the girls snarled.
"Habahahaha!" The Alchemist exclaimed. "EXACTLY, little Princess! This Dungeonborg is twice as powerful now! 'How?' you may ask. Well, the answer is nothing short of simple..."
Big, sharp teeth shone as the Alchemist grinned, shrunken pupils in a pair of piercing eyes.
"...Fairy Energy."
Ichigo squeezed her teeth angrily and squirmed. "Grrr! How DARE you do this to the Princess -gogo?! The Queen will know of this -gogo! You and the other Outlaws will be banished from Faeland for good -gogo!!!"
The Alchemist looked down at the snappy Pixie. Annoyed, he sighed.
"How bothersome."
And without a care, he tossed the Pixie off.
"WAAAAAAAH!"
"Ichigo!"
Quickly, Venture summoned her wings to catch Ichigo. The tiny Pixie sighed as she softly landed in the Precure's hands, safe and sound.
"Are you okay?" Senki asked, looking down at Ichigo in her hands.
"Thank you -gogo!" Ichigo smiled.
"What is this?" The Alchemist observed Senki as she floated. "It seems your Fairy Energy Level has passed its sixth stage! It is no wonder you can use Fairy Energy a tad easier now!"
Another sharp grin as his voice turned low and menacing, just like the Dungeonborg's.
"It will be mine to take. And Tengoku-sama will soon rise.
Dungeonborg, use your special power and take care of this lot."
"Dungeonborg..."
Aiming its cannon forward, the glass vial on its back began to empty up, the dark substance within now fully loaded in it.
The Dungeonborg was ready to fire, and the girls stood in defensive positions.
"Everyone!" Senki landed, still holding Ichigo in her hands. "Do not let the Dungeonborg shoot!"
"Yes!"
"Precure! Leaf Chain!"
Cure Leaf's leaf chains surrounded and held the monster's arm cannon tightly. The monster squirmed to set itself free from the grip, but Leaf held strong.
"Cure Venture! Now is your ch- aaah!"
The monster broke the magical chain without breaking a sweat! It aimed its arm cannon at the girls, but Cure Ruby ran forth.
"Not on my watch!
Dice Roll! Ruby!"
After rolling the dice, flames erupted from the Pact and engulfed Cure Ruby's fists.
"Light up!
Precure! Ruby Ignition!"
"Dungeon... BORG!!!"
Withdrawing its arm cannon, the Dungeonborg puffed up its chest, easily countering Cure Ruby's fireball with the power of Dungeon Energy that was in its Black Dice. A beam of Dungeon Energy destroyed the fireball before it could strike.
"Eh?!"
Shocked, Hotaru froze in place. This gave the Alchemist the upper hand to strike back.
"Get her."
"DUNGEONBORG!!!"
The Dungeonborg fired a blast of the dark substance, with its arm cannon, attacking Cure Ruby with it.
"Aah!"
"Cure Ruby!"
The Precure of fire and courage was stunned, her body stained with the black substance. She was unable to move.
"What... is this...?" She groaned.
"I can't move!"
"...!" Senki gasped. The Alchemist chuckled sinisterly.
"Which means the experiment has worked!"
The girls shot glares at the Outlaw, Cure Bard running forth to attack the monster.
"Precure! Bard Symphony!"
"DUNGEONBORG!!!"
Readying its arm cannon again, the Dungeonborg charged the substance and it soon clashed against Cure Bard's sound barrier.
"Nngh!" She held both hands forward, focusing on strengthening her power to purify the monster...
...to no avail.
"Aah!"
Cure Bard, too, was stunned by the substance. She hit the ground and fell unconscious.
"Cure Bard!" Matilda ran to the other's side to check on her.
"Dungeonborg..." The monster was ready to charge its special power again.
"Stop this, Dungeonborg!"
Senki jumped up high in the air, using the magic of her wings to propel herself higher and higher and summon Fairy Energy to attack.
"Princess!" Cure Paladin tried to stop her, but couldn't.
In the air, Senki observed her opponent.
"I can use Fairy Energy... I can surely beat this monster!"
Without hesitation, she flew down towards it at high speed. Her wings lit up and fluttered quickly, her power grew.
"Borg?" The monster looked up at the incoming fairy princess.
As she approached, her body was engulfed in a pink aura, her foot lighting up with the power of Fairy Energy.
"Haaaaa!"
BAM!!!
Cure Venture struck the Black Dice in the Dungeonborg's chest, and a strong impact of wind and magic took place. Tiny fragments of the Black Dice floated up as Venture landed.
But then...
"OUCHIEEE!"
Senki had forgotten about her sprained ankle. She had used her injured foot to perform the powerful kick.
As a result, she fell on her knees.
"Princess!" Matilda cried out in worry, and ran towards Venture.
"Ngh! It hurts so badly!!!" Senki clutched her injured foot tightly.
"Hmm?" The Alchemist observed this, despite the fact he was utterly disgusted on the inside for the damaged brought upon his minion.
But the Dungeonborg stood its ground, jumping to its feet with a loud STOMP!
"DUNGEONBORG!!!"
It fired its special power again, but Cure Leaf countered it.
"Leaf Barrier!"
Her shield held on against the monster's attack, but little by little it began to break it.
"Precure! Paladin Stream!"
Cure Paladin assisted by shooting a stream of water towards the dark beam, but it proved tough. The girls held strong as their powers continued clashing against the monster's.
Cure Paladin turned to Venture.
"Princess, it is dangerous for you to be here! The Alchemist's power is too strong!
You must leave, NOW!"
"But!" Cure Venture turned to her, tears about to run down her eyes. "What about you?! And Cure Bard? Cure Ruby?! Leaf, too?!"
Cure Paladin began to strain, her arms shaking and her teeth clenched as she tried to keep her powers up against the monster.
"Ngh! Do not worry about us! We... will...!"
BLINK!
In a blink, the barrier shattered and the stream of water broke down. The Dungeonborg's power struck the girls, pushing them back with brute force.
"Aaah!"
"Paladin! Leaf!!" Senki cried.
The girls laid unconscious on the soil, stains of black marking their bodies as the substance took effect, paralyzing them.
Ichigo and Ringo flew down to check on them.
Akari witnessed this from where she was hiding.
"Oh no..."
"Everyone -gogo..." Ringo whimpered.
"Is there anything we can do -gogo?" Ichigo sobbed. "And the Princess is injured -gogo!
I wish Reina was here -gogo..."
"Ngh!"
Senki clutched her foot. The pain was getting worse.
"It hurts even more...!"
"Tch. This is what happens if you hurt yourself, Princess." The Alchemist crossed his arms. "One injury, one single hurt, and you fall.
Heh..."
He grinned, his sharp teeth coming out.
"But! I have the cure for your hurt. I can give it to you only if you allow me to use Fairy Energy..."
Cure Venture, slowly standing up, shot another glare at her enemy.
"No! I will NOT lend you my power! Ever- ngh!"
But the pain in her ankle brought her back down.
"Hmm?"
The Alchemist observed. He had an open window to defeat Cure Venture, and chose to use it.
"Very well! Since you refuse to share your Fairy Energy with me, then I have something else to offer."
He pointed his hand towards Senki.
"Allow me to give you the true cure you look for. DUNGEONBORG!"
"Dungeon... BORG!!!"
Once more the monster charged its arm cannon, the weapon whirring and lighting up before the substance was fired.
Senki's pupils shrank.
"...!"
"No! I will protect everyone!"
BAM!
The monster's power brought forth a sudden explosion. Everything in front of the Pixie Twins turned black.
The Princess was nowhere to be seen...
"Princess -gogo!!!"
All had quieted down. Ichigo and Ringo desperately looked around, and it was then when a pink light began to shine among the darkness.
And a magical shield collided against the dark power.
"Cure Venture!" Ringo pointed at her.
"Do your best -gogo!!!" Ichigo shouted.
Senki held her hands forward, clenching her teeth.
"Grr!
It is true. I am hurt! I am in pain! It is too great that I cannot describe it!"
Her arms slowly began to strain, but she continued pressing on.
"But...!"
She thought of Akari's words back at the nurse's office...
"You'll get where you want to be, Senki-san. You must give yourself time."
The soil beneath her feet began to crumble as it accumulated on the back of her heels.
"Ngh! It is just what Akari said! With time I will heal!"
Hearing this, Akari gasped. She tightened her grip on the Treasure Pact in her hand.
"I will get back up! I will continue moving on! I will reach my dream of epic epic adventures!" Senki exclaimed.
"Bah!" The Alchemist spat. "Dreams are nothing but meaningless. You move on from one and look for another, and so on. The cycle restarts and continues."
His sharp glare met Senki's.
"You should just give in and come with me. It would mean a great deal to Tengoku-sama, and my mission will be complete."
Senki grunted. "No! My Fairy Energy will NOT fall on the hands of the likes of you!
This Fairy Energy... it..."
The Dungeonborg's energy overpowered and overwhelmed the magical shield, destroying it in an instant.
"AAAAH!!!"
"Princess Senki -gogo!"
The fairy princess fell unconscious.
"! ! !"
Akari could no longer stand back and watch. Grip on the Treasure Pact tightened even more, the junior high school student made a run for it.
"Senki-san!!!"
The Alchemist sighed. "Dungeonborg, do what you must. Tengoku-sama is tired of waiting."
"Dungeonborg!"
Senki's body was tucked in Dungeon Energy. Lifted up high in the air to meet the monster, the colorful light that was Fairy Energy flew out of her and to the Black Dice.
Her Fairy Energy Level decreased, and the dent in the Black Dice disappeared.
The Alchemist cackled. "That is it! Just a little more Fairy Energy and Tengoku-sama will be free!"
"STOP IT!"
The Dungeonborg stopped taking Fairy Energy, its glowing eye glaring at Akari.
"Borg?"
"Who is she -gogo?" Ringo asked, and then noticed the Pact in her hand.
"Ah! She has a Treasure Pact and Key -gogo!"
"Yes! Her potential makes her a suitable candidate to become a Precure -gogo!" Said Ichigo.
"Hmm?" The Alchemist's eyes narrowed down, staring at Akari with a squint.
"What is this? The Queen has fetched one more of you? Is that what this is about?"
He let out a sigh of disgust and extended a hand forth.
"Little girl, hand over that Treasure Pact and Key, if you please."
"No!" Akari responded with boldness in her tone.
"Hmph." The Outlaw was visibly annoyed by her response.
There was sharpness in her glare as she confronted the Alchemist, Treasure Pact held to her heart.
"I will not stand and watch as the Precure are in peril!"
She looked down at the Pact.
"I don't know what in the world is going on, but if I can use this...
...if I can use my wisdom...
...then I will help!"
A light shone in Akari's heart and covered her in a vivid orange light. She looked down at herself in shock.
"Eh?!"
Noticing this, Ringo turned to his sister. "Ichigo!"
Ichigo nodded in response. "Yes! A new PreCoin is coming!"
And with joined hands, the two chanted...
"Sage PreCoin, come out -gogo!"
An orange beam flew out of Ichigo's purse and to the sky, revealing a new PreCoin. The Sage PreCoin, which fell and bounced with a ding to Akari's hand.
It began to shimmer as Akari's eyes widened.
"What is this?"
"Akari Mitsumoto!"
"Eh?"
The Fruit Pixies approached Akari. She stepped back at the sight of them.
"Eh?! Talking butterflies?!"
"We are not butterflies -gogo!" Said Ringo. "We are the Royal Pixie Twins!"
"Akari Mitsumoto, you have been chosen to become the Precure of light and healing -gogo!" Said Ichigo.
"Light and healing? Precure...?!" Akari blinked twice.
"This may be too sudden for you, but please listen to our instruction -gogo!" Ringo implored, hands clasped together.
Akira stared at the Pixies as they talked, first Ichigo, then Ringo.
"Unlock the Treasure Pact with the Key and insert the Sage PreCoin -gogo!" Said Ichigo.
"After that, say 'Precure! Dice Roll Start!' and transform -gogo!" Ringo added.
Looking ahead at the enemies, Akari held the Pact, Key and PreCoin forward.
"Okay! Let's do it!"
In a vivid orange background, Akari's uniform turned into a glowing gown.
"Treasure Pact, Unlock!"
Unlocking the Pact with the Key, she proceeded to insert the PreCoin in the slot below the D20.
"PreCoin Insert! Sage!"
Afterwards the dice glowed an orange light, and Akari chanted...
"Precure! Dice Roll Start!"
...then rolled the dice, a number 6 appearing in magical light before the team's insignia was reflected in the Pact's mirror.
Rings of light surrounded her hands and feet, creating the gloves and shoes.
"Mending light..."
Rolling the dice again, a larger ring of light formed beneath her feet, then went upward, creating her uniform and the chest bow and a golden brooch with the team's insignia.
"Sparkling change!"
Rolling the dice one more time, another ring of light appeared and surrounded her short hair, making it grow in length and change its color to a bright orange. A headband with a bow and a round gemstone magically sat on her head, then a necklace and earrings took shape. Her eyes turned bright orange.
She would then pose.
"Light of healing! Cure Sage!" A ring of light expanded, followed by bursting sparkles.
"May your spirit be filled with everlasting light!"
...
"I am not impressed. Not at all." The Alchemist huffed.
While the Alchemist didn't show any sort of emotion, the Fruit Pixies cheered.
"The seventh Precure is here -gogo!"
Cure Sage was born! The new Precure looked down at her hands, eyes big.
"This is... me?"
"Dungeonborg, paralyze her." The Alchemist commanded nonchalantly.
"Dungeonborg..."
The monster stomped forth, aiming the cannon at Cure Sage. It started whirring to life and was soon ready to fire, but Akari prepared herself.
"Dungeon... BORG!!!"
The monster fired the dark substance at her.
"Restore! Healing Wall!"
Raising a hand, Cure Sage built a large wall of light. The substance hit it, but instead of countering the attack, Cure Sage's Healing Wall converted the dark substance into a magical light that passed through the other side of the wall. Said magical light healed the girls.
"...?" Hotaru stirred.
"What's going on?" Yuko sat up.
Matilda sat on her knees, looking down at her hands and tightening them into fists.
"This light... it is healing us."
"Everyone, look!" Moriko pointed at Akari.
As the wall vanished, Cure Sage turned to the girls.
"Stay back and recover. I'll help Senki-san."
"DUNGEONBORG!!!"
The monster advanced towards Sage. Unafraid, she ran towards it.
And with a jump, she delivered exactly four punches and a roundhouse kick to its Black Dice. With every hit a dent grew out once more.
And the kick was too strong to push the monster to its back on the soil.
"Dungeonbooooooorg..." Its eye spiraled.
"Now is our chance -gogo!"
Rolling the dice on the bottom of the Fae Pad, Ichigo and Ringo used it to recover the stolen Fairy Energy.
"Fae Pad! Recover the Fairy Energy -gogo!" Ringo chanted.
A beam of light shot out from the screen and towards the monster, and instantly, the colorful magic flew out of the Black Dice and into the pad.
"Fairy Energy recovered -gogo!" Ichigo said with a thumbs up.
Ringo then floated next to Sage.
"Cure Sage, it is time! Insert the Sage PreCoin in the Pact again to purify the Dungeonborg -gogo!"
Cure Sage nodded. "Yes!"
"Dice Roll! Sage!"
Once putting the PreCoin in the slot, the D20 glowed orange and Sage rolled it once. A ring of light formed in front of her, and with both hands, she levitated it.
"Shine!"
The ring shone bright as Sage chanted the attack.
"Precure Sage Lumière!"
In a spinning motion, sparkles flew out of the glowing ring and surrounded the Dungeonborg, and a spotlight shone down upon it.
"Finisher! Plus 100 Points!" A number 100 then appeared on top of the monster.
"Concluded..." Glowing bright, the Dungeonborg disappeared and the Black Dice shattered to pieces, revealing a new PreCoin.
The token bounced with a ding! and Cure Sage caught it in one hand.
"Session complete!"
...
Everything turned back to normal, and the fairy princess slowly floated down to the ground, the Dungeon Energy leaving her.
Cure Sage approached Venture's unconscious body and extended a hand forth.
"Princess, allow me to heal you."
A gentle light filled Sage's hand and an orange aura tucked Senki like a warm blanket. After a few seconds, the fairy princess stirred awake.
"...nngh?"
Opening her eyes, she saw the new Precure, who smiled down at her.
"There. Much better."
A sigh left her. Her transformation was indeed too sudden. And while she was glad she could help, she had a tight schedule.
"Who are you?" Senki asked.
"Cure Sage!!!"
Matilda, Yuko, Moriko and Hotaru approached Akari and Senki.
"Thank you for helping us!" Smiled Yuko.
"That was an incredible healing power!" Said Moriko in awe.
"Yes, yes! A strong one indeed!" Hotaru smiled big.
"Princess..." Matilda helped Senki sit up. "Are you okay?"
"Cure Paladin?" Senki gasped and blinked when she noticed... her ankle healed!
She wiggled her foot from side to side... it didn't hurt anymore!
"Ah!" She smiled big. "My foot is okay now! Epic epic!"
"Thank goodness."
After helping her stand, Matilda turned to Akari.
"Now, Cure Sage, since we now have your power on our side, then our mission will be..."
"Your mission. Not mine." Akari interrupted her.
"Eh?" Everyone blinked, confused by her words.
Akari sighed and bowed her head down. "My apologies, but this was too sudden for me. I won't do it.
I look forward to a future where I can help many people heal. I don't think I'll have the time for secret missions."
And just like that, she handed the Treasure Pact, Key and Sage PreCoin to Senki.
"I am glad to have helped you, but I must move on. You can choose someone else in my place instead."
With no more words, Akari turned her back and walked away.
"EEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHH?!?!?!?!?!" Everyone shouted.
THE NEXT DAY, AT EVERSPRING COLLECTIBLES SHOP...
"We are here!" Senki called.
"Everyone, welcome back!" Yuko and Moriko greeted the girls.
After school ended, Senki and Matilda returned to Hotaru's shop, smiles on their faces.
"School was epic epic! I am learning much more things!" Senki said with much joy.
"I am glad." Matilda chuckled. "Keep it up and you will do great in your studies, Princess."
DING, DING!
Soon another person entered the shop.
"Welcome!" Said Hotaru as she walked to the counter.
"Huh?"
Senki turned to see who it was, and was surprised to see it was none other than Akari herself.
"Good afternoon, Akari!"
"Ah, Senki-san, the fairy princess. I've been looking for you."
Senki blinked. "Eh?"
"Please come. I need to talk to you." Akari said with a rather serious tone, then looked at the others.
"To all of you."
...
During lunch break, the six sat around the table to talk...
Akari joined her hands together, sighing.
"You know, I didn't expect to start school like this."
Senki looked at her. "Eh?"
Akari turned her gaze back to everyone. "Becoming a Precure... fighting that monster... and now I have new friends."
She glanced at Senki.
"Princess Senki, I apologize for my actions yesterday."
Senki responded with a smile. "It is okay, Akari! You have a big dream to achieve! You do not have to be attached to Precure if you do not want to!"
Akari shook her head. "The power I received yesterday was nothing short of special. And if I was chosen to wield it, there must be a reason.
From this moment on, I will contribute to your cause and assist in your mission."
Ichigo flew close to Akari's face, crossing her arms and raising a brow. Akari's eyes widened.
"So! You have finally decided, have you not -gogo?"
Akari's expression softened, and she nodded.
"Yes. I will be... no... I am Cure Sage, the Precure of light and healing."
Turning to Senki again, there was another smile in her face.
"It would truly be an honor to be of service to you, Princess Senki."
Senki's eyes brightened.
"Cure Sage..."
And without hesitation, the fairy princess hugged Akari.
"...THANK YOU!!!"
Everyone laughed.
Withdrawing from the hug, Senki took out Akari's Treasure Pact, Key and PreCoin from her school bag.
"Welcome to the Epic Precure, Akari!"
Akari took the items. "Yes! I'm glad to be with you!"
The Pixie Twins watched with smiles at the scene.
"I am happy -gogo!" Smiled a joyful Ichigo. "With Cure Sage, only two more remain to be chosen -gogo!"
Reaching a hand into his satchel, Ringo gasped.
It was empty!
"EH?!"
Ichigo looked over at her brother. "Whatever is the matter -gogo?"
His joy disappeared and tears streamed down his cheeks. Whimpering, his gaze slowly met his sister's.
"Ichigo...
..WE DO NOT HAVE ANY MORE TREASURE PACTS -GOGO!!!!'"
Poor Ringo cried.
"SAY WHAT -GOGO?!" The snappy Ichigo yelled, arms flailing. "AND YOU TELL ME THIS NOW?! WE MUST REPORT TO THE QUEEN -GOGO!!!"
"What's the matter, you two?" Senki looked over at the twins.
"Yes, what is it?" Asked Matilda.
"Everyone... we have a major problem..."
Everyone paid full attention to the Pixies and what they were about to say.
While Ichigo crossed her arms and pouted, the poor Ringo whimpered and sobbed again, and said...
"...we ran out of Treasure Pacts -gogo!"
There was silence for a moment.
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHH?!?!?!?!?!"
The girls were absolutely shocked!
AT PIXIE KINGDOM CASTLE, FAELAND...
A young girl entered the castle's throne room to meet with the Queen, kneeling down before her.
She was the daughter of the Chief of the Faelandian Royal Assembly and the Princess' advisor.
"Your Majesty. I have received message from the Pixie Twins." She said with a calm voice.
"All the assigned Treasure Pacts have been delievered. The Precure on Earth have been chosen."
The Queen was delighted to hear the news, and smiled. "That is great news.
Although two Precure of Faeland have yet to wake, we must take the next step to restoring out world to its former glory.
With you, we will have seven legendary warriors. Go with Faefly and bring Princess Senki back to Faeland."
The girl nodded.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Standing up, the girl walked away, holding in her hands a particular purple token.
It was the Ranger PreCoin, and it had a dent in its center.
