(Prologue)
Let's begin. At the end. The final act of a tragic story.
In another universe, the mascot of the villain group "Enormeeta" took over a machine created by a rogue Time Variance Authority agent to end all Pretty Cure timelines. However…Venalita knew she would be defeated and hatched a plan that would end in her favor
Venalita: It... is... done...
Now... the Enormeeta... exists... in almost every... Pretty Cure... universe!
After the Rift Beacon's destruction, little pieces of Venalita were sent across the multiverse…in almost every Pretty Cure reality. With her seedlings planted in several realities…how could a day so pivotal in the lives of Magical Girls, an event who's ramifications would be felt by everyone across the world…how…could it have gone so differently?
Time… space… reality… it's more than a linear path. It's a prism of endless possibility. Where a single choice can branch out into infinite realities. Creating alternate worlds from the ones you know. I am your guide through these vast new realities. Follow me and ponder the question…
What If…the Pretty Cure fought the Enormeeta?
Part 1:
In your universe, a schoolgirl who was a superfan of Magical Girls learned that she was to become one herself. However, she wasn't just a Magical Girl…she was the villain! After being tricked by Venalita, she was destined to be the Tres Magia's arch nemesis…but the hero of her own story. Stopping Lord Enorme from taking over the world and proving herself to be the sadistic and evil villain Venalita knew she would be, this schoolgirl became the world's greatest and baddest villain. And her name was…
Utena Hiiragi–Magia Baiser.
But in another universe, what would happen if Utena's destiny to become the Tres Magia's archrival…went another way? Even a single event can change someone's whole perspective of their lives…and today was no different. The day Utena thought…she would become a Magical Girl. Just like her idols.
(At exactly 7:30am, when the sun was halfway over the horizon, a girl woke up with a startle. She was covered in sweat, had fluffy "helmet-like" black hair, gold eyes, and rosy cheeks)
(She sat up and looked around her dimly lit room, adorned with Magical Girl memorabilia)
Utena: A nightmare…? (Sighs heavily) Thank goodness…what a crazy nightmare…!
(Utena held her sheets tighter and blushed, looking to the side with a wavy smile)
Utena's Mind: I… I did kind of enjoy it, though…
(Utena got out of bed, showered, freshened herself up, and got ready for school. Her school uniform consisted of a white shirt, a green collar and dress, a yellow handkerchief, and black pantyhose Utena put on willingly)
(Afterwards, Utena wished her mother a good day and left for school…just three blocks away from her house. Unlike most students, Utena had to be at school early every morning due to getting stuck on the Beautification Committee when she had to join a club. Because there was no "Magical Girl Club" and she was too shy to speak up, she ended up on the committee and was assigned to water the flowers each morning before class)
(Utena seemed to like her job, though. She found the quietness before classes started a little peaceful where she could be alone with her own thoughts. In class, she was super average. Getting average grades, spending her time doodling. Resulting in the class forgetting she's even there. Utena was crazy about anything that had to do with magical girls, her favorite time of the month being when she got her allowance…so she could blow it on Magical Girl merch)
(With time to spare, just as other students began to arrive, Utena went to the front school yard and got a drink from the vending machine…thinking about the magical girls she adored so much)
Utena: They're so cute, and cool, and have such awesome transformation scenes…
(Utena retrieved her drink and smiled)
Utena: I love them so much… I wish I could be like them…
(She opened the tab on her can, however, the hissing was replaced by a loud whooshing sound that caught the attention of several students)
(Utena gasped and looked up. In the sky above her middle school…was a large green interdimensional portal made of pink sparks. The students grew nervous and started backing away fearfully as the portal to the "green" dimension began warbling loudly)
(A group of girls took out their phones and started recording while a petite girl with ash-blonde hair tied into buns and a low beige jacket that made it seem like the sleeves were too long, stepped forward with a grimace)
Obnoxious Girl: What the hell…?
(Utena's eyes widened and she dropped her can of soda while remaining frozen, causing the orange liquid to spill onto the brick tiles)
(At that moment, the portal flashed…and a black figure fell from it. Utena yelped and dove out of the way as the figure fell onto the pathway towards the entrance…almost right in front of her. The impact made a crater in the concrete and caused a giant dust cloud to plume in the air. Soon, the creature growled and began to stand back up)
Utena: O-O-Omigosh…w-what is that thing…?
(The creature was massive and stood at ten feet tall. His skin looked slimy, had a muscular and bulky build, and looked almost human…except for his sharp fingers and strange head complexion)
Scared Girl: Is…I-Is that an alien?!
(Now back on his feet, the creature lifted his head up and roared. Instantly, Utena became afraid. The black slimy monster had strange angry-like "eyes" that snaked towards the top of his head and a large mouth full of razor-sharp teeth that seemed to snake into a "smile". Utena noticed a large white symbol on his chest that resembled a spider that went around his whole torso)
(As the creature roared, the students immediately started screaming and ran into the school. The monster snarled and started charging towards the students, causing an unfortunate girl to trip on the pavement. She whimpered and crawled back as the monster opened his huge, slimy mouth…ready to devour her)
(At that moment, pink rope-like material whipped out of the portal and snagged around the monster. The girl rolled into a ball and cried right as it chomped…but was unable to reach her. He continued to push forward with a struggle, unable to reach the girl he wanted to eat)
("Doctor Strange" theme playing)
(Utena looked up and shielded her eyes from the sun with her hands, seeing three girls emerge from the portal. The center girl held the pink rope that ensnared the monster)
Cure Miracle: Where do you think you're going…?
(Utena smiled and immediately went into her superfan mode)
Utena: OMIGOSH! It's…some…kinda witch-like Magical Girl team!
(The school bell rang, causing Cure Miracle and her group to gasp. The trio looked around fearfully at where they were)
Cure Miracle: …w-wait…where are we…?
(The purple Magical Girl looked around and saw that they were in front of a school…full of cowering female students)
Cure Magical: Oh no… we're not supposed to be here…!
(Gaining the upper hand, the monster got ahold of Cure Miracle's rope spell and threw her to the ground before she could even react)
Cure Magical: MIRACLE!
(The monster growled and retracted slimy tendrils from his back and pushed them towards Miracle. The other Magical Girl, with pink hair and a green outfit, jumped in front of Miracle and conjured a green rune-like shield)
(As the tendrils struck, both were shoved into the school through the doors. Letting out an enraged roar, the monster started charging towards the school and rammed straight into the building. From the outside, smoke plumed from the windows as several windows broke from the school's right side)
Cure Felice: Cure Up! Rapap– AH!
(Before she could finish her spell, the monster tackled her and Miracle. Cure Magical flew into the hole on her witch broom and kicked the monster off her friends, creating more dust)
(However…unknown to everyone…something else was emerging from the portal. A black cat-like creature that also resembled a bat with gold stars on her ears and chest)
(In the school, Magical was defending her friends from the monster's jaws with a purple shield)
Cure Magical: Good luck getting through the impenetrable Shield of Seraphim!
(However, the monster breached the shield with his razor claw-like hands and began to rip the shield open)
Cure Magical: Okay…never using this spell again.
(She took out her Linkle Stick and waved it around)
Cure Magical: Cure Up! Rapapa!
(Conjuring a purple disc from the wand and rotating it, the room began to tilt sideways. An unlucky student who was in the gym at that time…started sliding down the opposite direction)
Cure Miracle: Grab that girl!
(The girl screamed as she fell towards the floor that was once the ceiling)
Mofurun: Mofu~!
(Before the girl could splatter on the ground, she was grabbed by something surprisingly strong. Looking up…it was a teddy bear on a which broom)
Mofurun: G-Gotcha-mofu!
Girl: T-That's a talking teddy bear…
(On the ceiling that was once the floor, the monster held tightly to Magical's shield regardless of the room being upside down. Grunting in exasperation, Felice started conjuring a spell made of green electricity)
Cure Felice: Cure Up! Rapapa!
(With a burst of green sparks, the monster was electrocuted and lost hold of the shield. Using her wand, Cure Felice opened a portal to the outside…causing the monster to fall onto an abandoned garbage truck that was near the front of the school)
Cure Miracle: You okay, kid?!
(Mofurun stayed with the girl who was lying on the ground in shock. She gave a weary thumbs-up and passed out immediately afterwards)
Cure Felice: Do a sweep! Make sure that's everyone!
Mofurun: On it, Felice-mofu!
(Mofurun took off as Cure Magical's shield spell faded away. The trio fell through their portal and landed on the street with a "click", conjuring ropes made of sparks in their theme colors…that immediately faded with shocked expressions)
Cure Magical: You gotta be kidding me.
(The monster had taken the garbage truck and was preparing to throw it at them. With a hiss, he threw the truck at them with ease)
Cure Magical: Cure Up! Rapapa! Astral projection!
(Once her spell was conjured, the trio became transparent and flipped through the truck. It bounced and crashed straight into the school. After becoming full again, they whipped around as rubble began to fall from the hole)
Cure Felice: Not so fast!
(The green stone in the center of the flower design on her outfit started glowing and she conjured a green disc. Rotating it, the truck began to… "un-crash" into the building, as if time was reversing)
(Before she could finish, the monster wrapped the trio in his tendrils and pinned them on the ground)
Cure Felice: (Grunts) NO!
(Once again, the truck crashed into the school in the exact same manner as before. Afterwards, the monster threw the girls towards the school's field)
Mofurun: Girls! Hang on-mofu!
(Mofurun burst from one of the windows and shot straight towards the Cures. Before they could hit the ground, she broke their fall by catching them on the broom)
(Sliding off, they tumbled across the ground and came to a stop with no major injuries)
Cure Magical: Ouch…
(Enraged, the monster smashed a car with his fists and flung it down the street. Utena watched from the sidelines with a fearful…yet excited expression as the monster continued its destructive rampage)
Utena: W-Wow… these new Magical Girls are amazing…! They fight for love and justice… and battle against this strange slime monster to protect all of us! They have to be the Pretty Cure!
(Her gushing session was interrupted at the sound of panicked students)
Scared Girl: Look out!
Girl 2: Run!
Athletic Girl: Come on, let's go!
(During the rampage, the obnoxious girl with ash-blonde hair was hit in the back by a large chunk of debris, causing her to lose her footing. She yelped as she hit the pavement…alerting the attention of the monster)
(His vision showed a green energy radiating from within her body. Intrigued, he snarled and walked towards her. The girl sat up and gasped, the monster now standing in front of her with his large, completely unfriendly smile)
(Torn between wanting to run and saving the girl…Utena decided to be a hero. She ran towards the monster and picked up a brick from the hole in the school)
(The monster grabbed the obnoxious girl by the throat and lifted her up. The girl grunted as the monster licked his sharp teeth with his tentacle-like tongue…obviously planning to eat her)
Utena: Hey, ugly!
(Utena threw the brick at the monster's well-toned shoulder blade. Not very affected…but now alerted, the monster snarled and dropped the girl he was holding. It's "eyes" squinted at Utena as it turned around)
Utena: I don't think she's interested, jerk!
(The monster roared softly, now having Utena's full attention. Utena's tough demeanor immediately dropped as the monster loomed over her)
Utena: I… I… I hope this is the moment… w-w-where the Magical Girls save the random girl who b-b-b-becomes the "Mid-Season newbie"!
(The monster roared, causing Utena to scream and duck down. At that moment, the Mahou Tsukai Pretty Cure returned and ensnared the monster once again)
(Conjuring their own green and purple ropes, Cure Magical and Felice trapped the monster with three-times as many ropes this time)
(The monster wriggled and squirmed, but could not break free. The Cures smiled at Utena, causing Utena's eyes to widen)
Cure Miracle: Good save, kid!
(The Cures began flying upwards back to the portal, taking the symbiote with them. He growled as he was pulled through, causing the portal to disappear behind them)
(Utena grabbed her heart and blushed furiously while drooling)
Utena: T-T-They thanked me…! ME! THE MAGICAL GIRLS ACTUALLY THANKED ME!
(Utena gasped with a shocked expression)
Utena: That's right, the girl!
(She rushed to the girl she saved as she was beginning to stand up)
Utena: U-U-Um… a-are you okay…?
(The girl looked up as Utena knelt down, offering her hand. Her usually empty purple eyes sparkled as she gazed at Utena…but she came back to her senses after a gasp)
Obnoxious Girl: Oh, uh… thanks. I've been better, but I definitely could've been worse.
(They both turned around, looking at the destroyed school in front of them)
Obnoxious Girl: Our school on the other hand…
(First responders began to appear and bystanders were recording the destruction)
Utena: Yeah… I was here… to water the flowers.
Obnoxious Girl: You're a second-year too? I hardly ever see you because you're so…forgettable. But, damn…you really saved my life. I owe you one, Utena Hiiragi-Chan.
Utena: W-Wait… Y-You know my name…?
Obnoxious Girl: Of course…you're the girl who got absolutely destroyed in dodgeball last week! You were trending all over Curesta!
(Utena blushed and scratched her head, not noticing the black cat/bat-like creature slipping into her backpack)
Utena: T-T-That's not a good way to be popular!
(The girl took Utena's hands with her baggy sleeves and began shaking her hands vigorously)
Obnoxious Girl: I'm Kiwi Araga! Nice to meetcha!
(The creature opened the part of the bag Utena rarely used and went inside, zipping up the pouch after she ducked in)
Utena: Kiwi…Chan…?
Kiwi: Yup!
(Utena just met this girl…and Kiwi already seemed infatuated with her. Utena never really had friends, but she felt a little uncomfortable about how this girl was acting)
(Regardless, she grabbed her backpack and walked away from the school with Kiwi)
Part 2:
(1 week later…)
(The sun lit up a girly pink room as a knock was heard at the door)
Oto: Uta! You were supposed to be up 20 minutes ago! You're gonna be late!
(A girl arose from her bed. She had long brown hair and big red eyes)
Uta: (yawns) Sorry, Mama, I'm up! I'm up!
(Uta got out of bed and began to get dressed. She tossed the shirt she wore yesterday in her laundry basket and jumped into her grey school uniform skirt. She quickly put on her white shirt and put on the grey collar while tying the pink ribbon…all while trying to reach the bathroom, causing her to collapse comedically)
(After brushing her teeth and doing her hair, she tied her signature eighth-note hairpin and headed to the dining room. She stuffed a piece of bread in her mouth and chugged her orange juice)
Uta: SeeyoumamaIloveyou!
(Uta quickly grabbed her school bag and rushed downstairs to the front door)
Oto: Have a good day, sweetheart!
Hamori: Bye-bye, Onee-Chan!
Uta: Bye-Bye, Hamori!
(Uta ran down the street and looked at her phone with a smile)
Uta: I was 20 minutes late getting up but I'm actually gonna be on time! Kirakilala—
(Before she could finish her sentence, she was knocked down as a car hit her)
Driver: Hey! Watch where you're going, kid!
(Uta stood back up and waved towards the car while cracking her back)
Uta: …I'm okay! S-Sorry…about your car.
For like Utena Hiiragi, Uta Sakura was on a magical journey of her own. 3 months ago, Uta met a fairy from the mystical KirakiLand. Unbeknownst to her, Uta was destined to become one of the legendary "Idol Pretty Cure" for her talented singing voice and special genes unique to her…
Now as one of the Pretty Cure, Uta and her friends; Nana Aokaze and Kokoro Shigure, swore to protect Hanamichi…and the world. But soon, they would discover they were not alone. Not just other Pretty Cure…but another group entirely.
Now, two legends must band together to face a threat unlike any the Multiverse has ever faced…
(Uta finally arrived at school…flocked with more students than she remembered)
Uta: Nana-Chan! Kokoro-Chan!
Kokoro: OHAYO!
Nana: Good morning, Uta-Chan.
Uta: Is it just me or are there a lot more students today…?
(Nana pulled out her phone with a surprised expression)
Nana: I'm surprised you haven't been following up on this.
(Uta read the headline "Monster attacks school in Hanamichi. 11 injured, no casualties, and school destroyed")
Uta: Huuuuh… that happened…?
Kokoro: Yupyup, and because the school is closed now, the students have to transfer to other schools. A lot of students from our ex-rival school transferred here.
Uta: I'm glad no one was seriously hurt. But are you sure with our rival being here…things won't get… (gulps) bad…?
(Nana looked over her shoulder with a worried expression. A lot of students were already exchanging nasty or suspicious glances at one another)
Nana: I don't know…there's been a lot of…tension.
(Uta and Nana took their seats in class as the bell rang. Already, there was chatter going around the class…with some comments being about the new transfers)
Uta: (Sighs) I hope it isn't always going to be like this…
(The chatter quieted down as the door opened, their homeroom teacher walking in)
Teacher: Good morning, class. I'm sure you already heard about the cataclysmic event that occurred at our other middle school last week.
(The students murmured among each other. Uta and Nana exchanged nervous glances)
Teacher: So, in the next coming weeks, we'll have an influx of new students from the schools that were destroyed in that event. But today, we have a new transfer student.
Uta: I wonder who it could be…!
(Nana thought to herself, only thinking "I hope the new student is nice")
(The door opens as Utena shakily enters the classroom. She stands in front of the podium shyly and bows with a meek whimper)
Teacher: Okay, miss. Why don't you start by introducing yourself?
(Utena rattled shyly. She had forgotten to practice in front of the mirror this morning and was a nervous wreck about introducing herself. She only had one shot to make her new first impression good…she bowed again and blurted out her introduction)
Utena: I-I-I'm Utena Hiiragi! I really admire Magical Girls...!
(She looked up with wide eyes, realizing she said all of that out loud…blushing bright red)
(The other students either gazed at Utena with surprise or confusion…or murmured amongst themselves)
(Uta sensed the new girl felt embarrassed, so she stood up to help her out. She waved at Utena with a great, big smile)
Uta: Magical Girls?! SAME!
(Everyone hummed and turned to Uta)
Uta: Have you ever heard of the Pretty Cure?
Utena: Uh...
(Utena blinks twice while staring at Uta)
Utena: Y-Yes...! They saved me when that monster destroyed...my school... a-and... I buy all of their merch...!
Uta: Really!? And how did you like Magical Girls in the first place?
(Utena tucked a strand of hair behind her ear shyly)
Utena: Um...
Teacher: I'm sure this conversation can continue later, girls. Now, Hiiragi-San. We need to find you a desk.
(Nana raised her hand)
Nana: Sensei. There's an empty desk right next to me.
(The teacher turned to Utena with a smile)
Teacher: Hiiragi-San, why don't you sit next to Aokaze-San?
Utena: O-Oh…! Yes.
(As Utena trudged to her seat, she heard murmuring about her…to her surprise, she overheard good things about her. She smiled to herself, happy she was in a class that readily accepted her)
(Utena sat in the desk beside Nana, setting her bag down)
Nana: There's multiple schools across Japan, why did you choose to come here, Hiiragi-San?
Utena: M-My school was attacked last week... and my Mom can't get another job outside Hanamichi, so I was forced to transfer here until our school is repaired...
(Utena slumped down and slammed her head on the desk with a pitiful whine. Nana felt bad for Utena, however, she decided to change the subject by her own curiosity)
Nana: What did attack your school, Hiiragi-San?
Utena: I-I-I... I don't know... um...
(Utena pulled out a notebook from her bag and showed Nana a sketch she made of the battle: Chibi variants of the Mahou Tsukai Cures fighting a humanoid black monster that had angry eyes, it's permanent toothy smile full of razor-sharp teeth, and black tendrils)
Utena: I-It was some sort of...giant monster made o-of... black slime…
Nana: Was it an alien…?! Or maybe…?
(Nana turned to Uta with a worried expression. They both thought the same thing: could it have been a monster sent by Team Chokkiri?)
(Uta leaned closer with a friendly smile, wanting Utena to feel better)
Uta: Hey, Hiiragi-San! Why don't we be friends and you can join our friend group?
(Utena's eyes widened and she turned to Uta)
Utena: Y-You'd... really let me be your friend...?
Uta: Of course! We're classmates and I feel like I should share my happiness with you!
(Utena blushed and lowered in her seat, feeling afraid that someone was readily accepting her into their friend group)
Utena: I-I never really had friends before... I-I always sat in the back of the class... a-admiring or doodling magical girls... I-I never... r-really was sociable... and people would forget I was even there.
(Utena flipped through her notebook, filled with sketches of Magical Girls. She smiled softly, her little doodles filling her with ease)
Uta: I see you're an Introvert like Nana-Chan. It's okay, Utena-Chan… we won't bite!
Nana: We promise, Utena-Chan. If Uta-Chan wasn't as energetic as she is, we wouldn't have been friends until now.
(Utena smiled strangely and blushed)
Utena: Ah... t-thank you... um…
(Utena lingered, not exactly remembering their names)
Uta: I'm Uta Sakura! And this is Nana Aokaze!
Utena: Uta…Chan and… Nana-Chan…?
(Utena's eyes sparkled as she let out an excited gasp)
Utena: Thank you…
(Uta grinned widely, making Utena feel comfortable. Perhaps…this new school would be a fresh start for her after all)
(During lunch period, Utena sat up and headed for the door…hoping that no one else had a spot on the stairs to the roof)
(Uta looked up and saw Utena preparing to leave)
Uta: Utena-Chan!
(Utena yelped and shuddered, turning around to face Uta)
Uta: Want to eat lunch with us?
Utena: O-Oh! I, uh…
Nana: If you want to, of course.
Utena: Um…
(Fighting a quick mental battle, Utena psyched herself up and faced Uta with a confident face)
Utena: Y-Yes! I-I'll sit with… you!
(Utena sat uncomfortably with Uta and her friends. She felt like she didn't belong...because she always ate lunch alone)
Uta: Are you okay, Utena-Chan? You seem quiet…
(Utena jolted slightly at her name being called again)
Utena: Oh... it's... just that I haven't eaten lunch... with anyone before…
(Uta giggled and threw her arm around Utena, causing her to tense up and blush)
Uta: Don't worry, because you're our friend now! You don't have to be alone!
Utena: T-That's…right. T-Thank you... Uta-Chan... Nana-Chan... and...
(Utena shyly gazed at Uta's other friends)
Utena: ...the rest.
(Kokoro entered the classroom and was surprised to see a new face with them)
Kokoro: OHHH! Uta-chan, Nana-chan, Mikoto-chan, is this the new girl?
Nana: It is. She just transferred here.
Mikoto: What took you so long, Kokoro-Chan.
Kokoro: Uh…
(Kokoro scratched her head and presented a grocery bag)
Kokoro: Ehehe…I went to the convenience store down the street. Who is this girl anyways?
Nana: Oh, that's Utena Hiragii. She's the new transfer student.
Kokoro: From the school that was destroyed?!
(All the girls nodded sheepishly)
Kokoro: That's so cool! N-Not because your school was destroyed, nono. I mean…what was it like?
(Kokoro pulled up a seat and gazed at Utena with sparkling eyes)
(Utena stammered because someone so…cute…was staring right at her)
Utena: It…It was surprising. Yeah. A lot of destruction.
Uta: Show her your drawing, Utena-Chan!
(Utena hesitantly pulled out her notebook and showed Kokoro while facing away)
Kokoro: WOW!
(Kokoro took the notebook without warning, causing Utena to stammer shyly)
Kokoro: This drawing is SO GOOD, Utena-Chan!
Utena: Y-Y-You really think so…? It's…it's just a sketch I made over the weekend.
Mikoto: You're an artist, Utena-Chan!
Utena: Thank you… u-um… Mikoto-Chan… and… uh…
Kokoro: Oh! I haven't introduced myself…! I'm Kokoro Shigure! I'm actually a first-year!
Utena: W-Wow, you're the president of the Idol Research Club…!
Kokoro: Yup! Those new idols that are going around…I just have to record and study who they are!
Utena: I-I guess we have something in common… I-I like Idols too…
Uta: Kokoro-Chan actually advertised Cure Idol and Cure Wink before!
Utena: Yes! The You & Idol Pretty Cure! Aren't they the best?! Their outfits are so cute, and I love them all equally but, I have to say Cure Idol's uniform is adorable and her hair! Oh, her hair is so lovely with the blonde and pink highlights, the double buns, and her dress–
(Everyone looked at Utena with shocked smiles…not expecting Magical Girls and Idols would cause her to break out of her shell)
(Realizing this, Utena's face turned red and she hunched down)
Utena: Ohh… t-this is so embarrassing!
Mikoto: Y-You must love Magical Girls, Utena-Chan…
Utena: I really do… (sighs) …but as idols. I wonder why they're so secretive…
(Uta, Nana, and Kokoro jolted lightly)
Uta: I-Idols can be secretive, Utena-Chan! Fans don't need to know every single thing about their personal life.
Nana: Y-Yeah, I agree with Uta-Chan on this one.
Utena: I-It's not that... um... it's just... t-they appear just as quickly as they disappear... and they don't rent concert stages like other idols...
(Utena sighed and cupped her red cheeks)
Utena: But they're Precure...! They're so awesome…
Kokoro: U-Um…! I guess they came from another world?
Utena: Um...
(She found it strange that Kokoro, Uta, and Nana were so insistent on keeping the Kimi to Idol Cures' identities secret...but she didn't judge)
Utena: Yeah... I-I guess you're right.
Kokoro: We should respect the life of idols behind the scenes. They might get uncomfortable if they share their personal secrets.
Utena: Ehehe... um... I guess... that's what the Idol Research Club is for, right... K-Kokoro-Chan...?
Kokoro: Yup! Do you want to join Utena-Chan? I still have a spot open!
Utena: I-I would join... n-now that I'm required to choose a club for this school, but... I-I already joined the... Beautification Committee…
Nana: Really? That's so nice.
Uta: I wouldn't have expected you to join that club, Utena-Chan.
Utena: I enjoy being on the Beautification Committee... I-I was roped into it at my previous school... but... I liked it...
(Utena rests her palm on her chin, reminiscing about her previous school)
(The girls frowned sadly, knowing Utena missed her old school…but they also wanted her to feel welcome in her temporary one too)
Part 3:
(After school, when Utena finished watering the flowers, she purchased a drink from the schoolyard's vending machine. Before she retrieved it, she whipped around and looked to the sky…thankfully, no portals opening today)
(Utena sighed with relief and opened the can of soda, taking a sip)
Utena: The You & Idol Pretty Cure…they're so cute.
(Utena smiled to herself)
Utena: I wish I could be like them…just like the Pretty Cure.
?: You can if you want, y'know.
Utena: Huh?
(She turned around…to see a black doll-like fairy staring right at her. It resembled a bat and a cat at the same time with long, baggy sleeves)
(Again…Utena dropped her drink and immediately started freaking out)
Utena: IT'S THE CUTE MASCOT CHARACTER WHO GIVES A TOTALLY AVERAGE GIRL THE POWER TO TRANSFORM!
(Utena waved her hands, nervous and excited at the same time)
Utena: U-Um… wow… t-this is all happening so fast…!
?: My name's Venalita, nice to meetcha. Utena Hiiragi, you are the chosen one.
(Venalita retrieved a star from her back…pocket? Then threw it at Utena, who tensed up…preparing for her own transformation)
(One Transformation Scene later…)
Utena: No way…I get…to transform…into a Magical Girl?! NOOOOO WAAAAAY!
(Utena…now transformed…giggled…but had to look down)
Utena: Huh?
(She had golden horns upon her head, wings on her back attached to a corset, an exposed chest region covered by purple star-shaped pasties, form-fitting sleeves and pants covered by voluminous skirts extending down from her waist and back. Her fingernails are longer and have black nail polish and two stars appear on her cheeks)
(Utena jolted and covered herself up while shaking violently)
Utena: H-Hey, um, is this my costume…?
Venalita: Yup. Looks good on you, too.
Utena: Okay, but like, I hate to say it, but… i-it doesn't… e-e-e-exactly scream "Magical Girl".
Venalita: Well, duh, of course it doesn't. You've been chosen to become one of the villains in our evil organization.
Utena: Huh…? I think…you have the wrong person…
Venalita: You're the perfect candidate for our next evil villain.
Utena: T-T-There's no way I am, though… I-I love Magical Girls…!
Venalita: Everyone has their own unique skills, and we can't let yours go to waste!
Utena: H-Have you been listening to me at all…?
Venalita: The greatest joy a human can feel is knowing someone, anyone, needs them.
Utena: But… I don't want to be needed by an evil organization.
Venalita: I bet the Precure needs you to do this, too!
(Utena made a disgusted face while sighing)
Venalita: Magical Girls only exist because they have an evil organization to fight! Don't you get it? Without you, they've got no reason to fight at all!
Utena: So you want me… t-to fight… the Pretty Cure…?
Venalita: Did I pique your interest?
Utena: N-NO! And I hate YOU!
Venalita: If you're going to keep complaining…then I guess your transformation scene is going up on CureX for our 200K followers!
(Utena read the post: "I saw a sexy villain do her transformation! Please share and R8")
Utena: PLEASE DON'T! PLEASE DON'T! PLEASE DON'T! PLEASE DON'T! PLEASE DON'T! PLEASE DON'T! PLEASE DON'T! That is SO messed up!
Venalita: Duh, we're the bad guys. You gonna help us or what?
Utena: (tearfully) I don't wanna…!
(Moments before…)
(Uta, Nana, and Kokoro were preparing to leave school. As they were retrieving their shoes, Purirun popped out of Uta's backpack)
Purirun: I sense a shudder-puri!
(The girls turned to Purirun, who was silently freaking out)
Nana: Team Chokkiri?!
(Purirun whimpered, looking uneasy)
Purirun: I-I dunno-puri… this one feels… different-puri.
Uta: Girls, let's go!
Nana & Kokoro: Right!
(They pulled out their Idol Heart Brooches)
(Another Transformation Scene Later)
(After transforming, they ran outside...to see the sky purple with chains along the horizon, but no Makkurunda, leaving the students confused)
Girl 1: Is it another attack…?
Girl 2: N-Nothing is happening.
Cure Idol: This hasn't happened before…it must be a new general!
Cure Wink: Let's go!
(The trio jumped in the air, tracking the dark sense they could feel in the air. In the center of the schoolyard, they saw a girl dressed as a demon…talking to some kind of fairy)
Cure KyunKyun: There!
(Present time)
Cure Idol: Hold it right there, Team Chokkiri!
(Utena flinched and turned around slowly)
Cure Idol: I knew we sensed something around here! Your schemes end here because this is a school! But you… you don't look like Team Chokkiri!
(Cure Wink blushed bright red after seeing Utena's outfit)
Cure Wink: I-Is that…seriously her uniform…?
(Utena flailed about while blabbering. Venalita just levitated there)
Venalita: Talk about bad timing.
(Utena remembered Venalita being there and turned to Cure Idol)
Utena: M-Miss Cure Idol…! I need help! T-They forced me to transform into this!
Cure Idol: R-Really?
Cure KyunKyun: She doesn't mean it, Idol. It's a trap!
Cure Wink: We won't fall into a bait this time!
Utena: THEY DON'T BELIEVE ME!
Venalita: Wow. Sucks to be you…again.
Utena: A-Again…? What do you–
Purirun: She doesn't seem so bad-puri! Finish her-puri!
Cure Idol: Oh, right…
Utena: W-W-W-WHAT DO I DO…?!
(Venalita pulled out a wand-shaped weapon with a star at the tip)
Venalita: Use your crop.
Utena: A-A crop…?!
Venalita: This is your special weapon. The Frusta Dominazione.
(Utena took the crop and shuddered fearfully)
Utena: W-What do I do with it…?
Venalita: Hit one of those flowers with it. Hurry up, unless you wanna get hurt!
(Utena squealed and hit a flower, causing it to start glowing with red energy)
Utena: W-What is happening…?!
(The flower started to grow…and turned into a giant flower with tendrils made from its roots. It had an angry face and was surrounded by glowing red energy)
Gigabyogen: GIGA!
(The Cures gasped)
Cure Wink: A Gigabyogen…! Aren't these the…
(Utena watched her monster squirm with an unamused expression)
Utena: What the heck…?
Venalita: Good, this one turned out great. Your crop can turn anything into Gigabyogens for you to control. With them…
Gigabyogen: GI… GA!
(It flung out one of its tendrils, causing it to wrap around Cure Idol's neck. More tendrils snagged around her waist and legs, preventing her from moving)
Cure Wink: Wink Barrier!
(Wink blocked incoming tendrils trying to grasp her and turned to Cure Idol)
Cure Wink: H-Hold on, Idol! Let me–
(However, the tendrils came from behind and wrapped around her waist and arms, preventing her from moving as well)
Cure Wink: A-Ah… No!
Venalita: …just say the word…
(Next to Cure Idol, Cure KyunKyun was roped as well. Her legs and arms snagged, preventing her from doing anything)
Cure KyunKyun: L-Let… me… go!
Venalita: …and it'll torment Magical Girls for you.
Utena: Y-Yes! I got them!
…
Utena: W-Wait a second…
(The tendrils started tightening around Cure Idol's neck, Cure Wink's body, and Cure KyunKyun's arms and legs)
Gigabyogen: GIGA-HA-HA!
Utena's Mind: Why am I happy…? I-I'm hurting the Magical Girls I love. S-Something's wrong with me…!
(Utena shivered and started moving her legs while bringing a hand to her mouth…realizing she was drooling)
Utena's Mind: I… I feel really funny!
Venalita: Utena…?
(Utena snapped out of her fantasy and turned to Venalita)
Utena: A-Ah…! T-This is good, right?! Can I stop now?!
Venalita: What're talking about? It's time for you to get in there, don'tcha think?
Utena: H-Huh…?! Um…sorry…I-I don't think I can do that…
(Venalita silently threatened her by showing her the post she was waiting to publish, causing Utena to scream)
Gigabyogen: Giga…
(The tendrils around the Precure started tightening and swirling around them)
Cure Kyun-Kyun: I-I can't move…!
(The two roots wrapped around Cure Idol's neck started tightening)
Cure Idol: It's too tight…!
(More tendrils wrapped around Cure Wink, preventing her from using her barrier to escape)
Cure Wink: L-Let go of us, you…
(She was cut off by a groan, unable to breath due to the tightening roots)
Utena: U-Um… h-hey…
Cure Idol: Wh-Why are you doing this to us…?! Please let us go!
(Utena had a broken smile of guilt and…something else written all over her. Meanwhile, Venalita pulled up the post again)
Venalita: Ask them for help again and this goes viral.
(Utena sighed in defeat)
Utena: S-So, um… c-could you… stick out your butts real quick?
Cure Kyun-Kyun: Um, excuse me what the actual–
Gigabyogen: GIGA!
(Suddenly, they were pushed forward, the tendrils forcing them to bend over)
Cure Idol: W-W-Wait! Hold on!
Cure Wink: W-What are you going to do to us…?!
(Utena raised her riding crop… and…)
SMACK!
(The Cures yelped, feeling a stinging pain in their behinds)
All: OWWWWWWW!
Cure Wink: WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?!
(Utena spanked Wink through her skirt)
Cure Kyun-Kyun: St…Stop it…!
(She let out a cry as Utena spanked her next)
Cure Idol: L-L-Let me go…please!
(As Utena targeted her next, Cure Idol seethed as her dress was spanked)
(The Precure yelped and cried out as Utena spanked them again and again and again through their skirts)
Utena's Mind: Oh man… I-I'm hurting the Pretty Cure with my own two hands… h-how did this even happen?! I-Is this real…or a bad dream…?
(As Utena continued to spank the Cures with her riding crop, her deadpan smile…slowly started twisting into a real smile)
Utena's Mind: Yeah, that's it… t-this must be a dream…! A-And if this is a dream…I might as well enjoy it!
(Venalita watched as Utena continued to spank the Precure relentlessly)
Venalita: My instincts never fail me, Utena Hiiragi. You think you love Magical Girls…but what you feel isn't love at all. It's a twisted delight from watching them suffer…Utena, underneath it all, you are a real sadist. Your power exceeds that…of the Sorcerer Supreme, it is your destiny to rule or annihilate the cosmos.
(Utena watched as the Precure, now defeated, laid on the ground out of breath and shaking from the pain she brought them…gently smacking her hand with her riding crop)
Part 4:
(Utena awakened with a startle and looked around her room)
Utena: A-A dream…? (Sighs) Thank goodness…what another crazy dream!
Utena's Mind: B-But… I did enjoy it…again.
(She got out of bed and prepared to go to school. Unusually, she felt more motivated and energetic than usual. Utena hopped into her skirt and quickly pulled up her pantyhose, threw her things into her bag, and headed for the front door)
Utena's Mother: Have a good day at school, Utena!
Utena: T-Thanks, Mom!
(Utena walked to school, feeling miserable about the dream she had)
Utena's Mind: L-Last night was the worst dream yet…but…why do I feel better than ever…? Why am I doing this…? I love Magical Girls!
(Utena whimpered, surrounded by a cloud of guilt and depression)
Uta: Good morning, Utena-Chan!
(Utena shrieked, dropping her watering can and turning around, frightened)
Utena: U-Uta-Chan…?
Uta: S-Sorry, Utena-Chan!
(Uta laughed nervously, scratching the back of her head)
Uta: Did I scare you?
Utena: N-No… I'm fine.
(Uta bent over, looking at the flower beds)
Uta: I see you really did join the Beautification Committee!
Utena: Y-Yeah…
Uta: Thank you! I'm sure the flowers would thank you too, if they could!
(Utena suddenly remembered creating a Gigabyogen out of the flowers yesterday…and dropped to her knees)
Utena: I-I don't deserve their gratitude!
Uta: Utena-Chan! What's wrong–
(She knelt down, causing her butt to touch her heels…resulting in a shock of pain to jolt through her entire body)
Utena: A-Are you okay, Uta-Chan…?
Uta: Y-Yeah… I'm fine…! I… uh… accidentally sat on my family's cactus in our cafe…! My butt barely hurts!
Utena: O-Oh, um… c-condolences to your… f-family's cactus…
Uta: C-Come on…Utena-Chan… l-let's go to class together…!
Utena: Oh, s-sure.
(Unbeknownst to them, someone started following them as they started walking to the front doors)
Uta: Are you ready for the midterms this week?
Utena: Oh, yeah… t-they're coming up, huh…?
(Utena heard footsteps rapidly approaching her from behind, causing her to look behind…only to get tackled)
?: UTENA-CHAN!
(The two of them rolled and crashed against the wall)
Uta: U-Utena-Chan…?!
Utena: Wh-Wha…?
(She came back to her senses and looked at who was on top of her)
Utena: K-Kiwi…Chan…?!
(Kiwi giggled softly)
Utena: W-What are you doing here…?!
Kiwi: Well, I said I'd see you again soon!
Utena: Y-Yeah, but… wait… is that our uniform?
(Kiwi was wearing the Hanamichi Middle School uniform, wearing the same beige jacket she wore the day she met Utena)
Kiwi: Yup! Now we match! Mommy just finished my transferal papers yesterday, we get to be classmates now!
(Utena stayed still with a shocked expression as Kiwi wrapped her sleeves around her)
Kiwi: Utena-Chan! Let's be BFFs!
(Kiwi puckered her lips and started making kissy sounds near Utena)
Kiwi: Chu, chu, CHUUUUUUUU! Bu…bu…bu…bu, bu, bu, bu, bu…
(Utena shrieked)
(After school, Utena sat in the courtyard after she got a text from Venalita)
Utena: W-Why did you… call me here, Venalita-San?
Venalita: Because the world won't conquer itself, duh! Up and at 'em, Utena!
Utena: WH-WH-WHAT?! I CAN'T JUST TRANSFORM HERE!
Venalita: Of course you can't. Because we need to come up with a name for you.
Utena: A-A name…?
Venalita: If you use "Utena" they could easily figure out who you are. People in your generation like those cringy, descriptive names, right? It doesn't take a genius to figure out who Cure Gelato is when her stupid dress looks like Ice Cream.
Utena: A name… hm… um…
(Utena got an idea and smiled, turning to Venalita with sparkling eyes)
Utena: What about… Cure Spicy!
Venalita: That's pretty good…
(Utena hummed triumphantly)
Venalita: But it's taken!
(Utena froze up in shock, then slumped down)
Venalita: I had a feeling you'd resort to those dumb Precure names, Utena.
Utena: The Precure aren't dumb… they're cute and fight for–
Venalita: Yeah, yeah, sure, whatever. That's why I took the liberty to come up with a name for you.
(Utena perked up shyly)
Utena: …w-what is it?
Venalita: From now on…we shall call you: "Magia Baiser".
Utena: M-Magia…Baiser?
(Utena pondered while looking at the ground. Slowly, her expression started to twist into a smile of approval…and…excitement)
Utena: Yeah, I can't lie… kinda like it.
Her one choice created a whole new history…and altered the course of this world. From this moment, Utena Hiiragi would not become the arch-nemesis to the Tres Magia. She would become the biggest villain to…the Pretty Cure.
To be continued…
