Skip...)

It's almost time for the summer festival. The girls had their yukata and different looks overall. Arigaoa's hair was tied in pigtails.)

Faith: What is that...?

Arigaoa: It's a ginkgo! It's shaped like a fan! This sort of tree is very common here. It's also a preparative for the festival.

Inuyama: *laughing*

Faith: That's not funny, I mean... It seems like a serious festival. What is the thing that I am wearing now? You know, that dress?

Arigaoa: It is a yukata.

Inuyama: A yukata hmm hmm!

Faith: A yukata, I like it... Even if these sandals hurt my toes... Are there like no other clothes in this world?

Arigaoa: No, of course not, there's a whole lot other stuff you can wear here.

Faith: I've never seen a yukata before... Is it like a kimono?

Arigaoa: It's almost like one, but it's not made of silk. They're usually worn for different occasions. You're being very curious...

---

Arigaoa: Faith, you should go to the festival with us.

Faith: Eh, I don't know if I can... Uh... yes, I will.

Arigaoa: Hmm... The time's over. I have to go now, see you later. Bye.

Inuyama: Bye bye! *sticks her tongue*

Faith: Wait! *hurrying to go, passes a bridge with difficulties but did go through* /ALMOST/

---

Ryuuto: *was at the festival too, at an attraction with a fortified castle*

Arigaoa: I recognize him.

Faith: It's Ryuuto.

Ryuuto: Hi, Arigaoa, Faith, nice to see you again. It's great to be here.

Inuyama: Wow, we're going to have so so much fun! *smiles*

Ryuuto: I agree. While I'm a boy, I still feel like I can have ton of fun too.

Faith: *awkward*

Most stalls are constituted of intermediate challenges, the ace of each of them would gain good prizes without only doing catching or rewarding attractions. Everyone seemed to do their own stuff. A big canister was placed to give the prizes inside.)

Arigaoa: This is a coincidence.

Me-chand: *slips*

Faith: What the heck? Me-chand, why are you here?

Me-chand: Nothing.... I am a nuisance....

Arigaoa: That is not true. The fact that you are annoyed and all... It's wrong to have that kind of feelings. You should accept them, and smile at the funny things.

Ryuuto: What...?

Arigaoa: You don't get it?

Ryuuto: It feels weird coming from you I guess even if I don't really know you, but, no...

Me-chand: *giggling*

Faith: What is so funny?

Me-chand: The funny thing is that you... *whispers* have legs and can walk, and you are an angel. The way angels are portrayed in my world don't.

Arigaoa: Huh?

Me-chand: It's scripturally accurate stuff.

Faith: ! *runs away, peeing herself, shocked that some people found out that she's one because of Me-chand*

Inuyama: Hahaha...

Ryuuto: No! Don't go, Faith.

Zameel: I like this kind of people... *acting like a plush, whispering*

Szoz: *same* You're strange, pszoz...

Arigaoa: Shh.... I think I heard something.

Inuyama: Yup... It sounded like... Nothing.

Ryuuto: *interrogative sound*

Shikuna: *taking part in an activity*

Ryuuto: *to Shikuna* Hey, you, someone you might know is odd.

Shikuna: Yeah... Are you talking about me?

Ryuuto: No? I don't. I didn't assume that you were.

Shikuna: Okay then. I hope that the fireworks would come sooner.

Ryuuto: ...

Me-chand: Humans. *she had a megaphone since she is silent and that the festival is packed* *annoyed* Hold on, you fools. If you don't wish to be reaped on, let's put your names into a big bowl.

Arigaoa: Me-chand?! I don't think that's a good idea to do that!

Me-chand: The only one that can re-examine my superiority over you is me. And I won't have other people meddling with my work. I will steal all the prizes here, thank you for listening.

People: *starting to leave*

Me-chand: *ignites them all with her mind and throws the bowl away... slowing her heart out*

Arigaoa: Stop! What happened to the Me-chand we all love and know?

Shikuna: I hope that this wouldn't affect me, I'm a good person...

Ryuuto: Same here.

Shikuna: Is that surprising you that a magical stuffed animal is acting and speaking?

Ryuuto: I'm not surprised but I think everyone else is a little surprised a magical stuffed animal is speaking and trying to mug them.

Shikuna: Of course.

Ryuuto: Now, what should you do?

Shikuna: I'll stop it. *she stopped Me-chand and returned to do more attractions*

Arigaoa: We can't let this happen again.

Shikuna: Arigaoa.

Me-chand: Pah... I'll do as I please.

Arigaoa: *nervous and confused* Actually...

Me-chand: *she did bad things* People! I'll hurt! Listen! I am the worst! All of you must leave!

People: *confused*

Arigaoa: No! *she jumped and held out* Gnnnh! Stop it! You're going to regret this!

Mine: Sorry, I think that's not that bad. Me-chand knows what she's doing wrong.

Arigaoa: Really?

Shikuna: *to the group* The fireworks will begin soon, we must go and get a good place to watch them.

Ryuuto: I've heard that the best spot is from a hill, where we can see for a long way.

Arigaoa: Shikuna, let's go together.

Me-chand: I'll come too, but then you won't be able to come at all...

Shikuna: We can see each other from here!

Ryuuto: But the best view will be alone. Let's go.

Iken: Aaaah... *relaxing*

Mine: Okay. We can do that then.

Arigaoa: Let's go. You wouldn't want any competition, right?

Me-Chand: True...

Shikuna: Are you coming to the fireworks Arigaoa?

Arigaoa: I said I will, I can't miss an opportunity like that.

Shikuna: I get it.

Me-chand: I'll stay here. I have work to do, anyway you see me as an unwelcome person that doesn't need a lot of entertainment...... That is really a fact...... And it's correct...... Capiche?

Arigaoa: ...

They went to see the fireworks.)

Faith: I feel really better since I joined you all.

Arigaoa: And I really feel bad for my actions... I was so mad at the fairy for breaking things... and attempting to get the prizes. I don't understand why she did that...

Shikuna: Who knows...

The fireworks was spectacular, the colors, sounds and lights are beautiful to look at.)

Arigaoa: Wooow! Amazing.

Me-chand: (Think: Everything sucks, including me.....)

The annual celebration continues for some hours, it seems that festival is longer than excepted and that the fireworks really came sooner. Later.)

Inuyama: *eating cotton candy* Sweet aroma.

Me-chand: (thinking: Why am I not surprised that they're enjoying this?)

Inuyama: I'll give you some of mine if you want... *gives to Mine, peppy*

Mine: *eating the part*

Some sort of Japanese traditional music played from afar.)

There were dances through the night filled with gleams. Iken is dancing alone on the other side of the festival, she was graceful and copying the moves.)

Arigaoa: Let's have some drinks, everyone!

Ryuuto: Yeah!

Arigaoa: *drinking* Ah... good...

Iken: Oh... I gained a prize for participating at the dance? Even if I was alone?

Arigaoa: Everyone who participated got one.

Iken: Then... This dance was just for fun?

Arigaoa: *smiling* Of course.

She sticks her head on a photo cutout board.)

Me-chand: *she had a mask* I don't know what to do.....

Inuyama: *coming closer to everyone*

Mine: Ah, Inuyama.

Arigaoa: I thought you were alone like Iken...

Inuyama: There is something that I want to try....

Arigaoa: What is it?

Inuyama: The Infernal Drop Tower! *a lot of people were gathering around it, it was next to a pinball stand*

Mine: What the heck is that? *concerned by its name*

Inuyama: A RIDE!! *she screamed loudly, like the loud person she is*

Her loudness was incredible. Inuyama screamed so loud that her scream was amplified and it sounded like an entire stadium of people shouting.)

Mine: *covering her ears* Okay! You can go... leave me alone. But don't follow strangers.

Inuyama: What do I have to do to get on this ride?

Arigaoa: You want to ride it alone?

Inuyama: Yes! I want to go on this ride alone!

Mine: *sighs* Fine. But only because it's crowded.

Inuyama: *energetic face* Yay! I'm first riding alone on this ride! *running*

Arigaoa: Why is there a roller coaster in a traditional Japanese festival, though?

Iken: Roller coasters are kind of dangerous...

Everyone wait for the ride to start and then walk to the coordinator's post to get their seat. The seats are secluded and can fit lot of people, Inuyama already received a seat.)

Inuyama: *arrived at the post* Alrighty! Let's go!

The attraction starts running and it slowly goes up and down.)

Inuyama: *rocking, strongly attached*

Everything consists of pure adrenaline. Everything hits, the speed, the smell of the food around, the feeling of adrenaline, the earsplitting noise, this is just pure fun!)

Inuyama: *with her legs crossed* Ahh... this is really fun!

Me-chand: *tries the ploy of speeding the attraction even faster to scare her and make her feel bad so she can also laugh at her*

Inuyama: Yeeeeeeah! Woohoo!

Me-chand: (Think: Shoot. It's not working... I'm just making it better.) *slowing down*

Inuyama: *somehow looking a little bored and unconcerned*

The attraction starts to stop. You'd think they could have keep going instead of stopping. The seats are empty and Inuyama is still attached, but now with her eyes open. The surrounding people were screaming. This just made Inuyama's expression frown a bit.)

Me-chand: *going back, her mask is gone*

Inuyama: Okay, this was pretty thrilling, but hmm. I-I'm feeling weird now...

She closes and opens her eyes again and they begin to wander around the people, until they see several teenage girls. Who are they? They look almost exactly like Natsume, Sui, and several other people she know from her school (most of them aren't from her class though) The person next to them has black hair tied in a bun and is also dressed in a yukata.)

Inuyama: *innocently* ?

That girl turns around. It's... really the student council president of her school.)

---

Ryuuto: *he was now in Yual World, getting it by knowing the Pretty Cures, he knew a lot of things and now learned the fact that Faith is an angel* That's... interesting.

---

Inuyama: *looking at the student council president* Asobi! *rushes to her* It's me, Inuyama! I found you! I'm obedient and I work well!

Asobi: *stern look to an open-mouthed Inuyama* Geez, just because you said that doesn't mean you're going to impress me, and you're childish!

Inuyama: I meant at school!

Asobi: No, you don't!

Inuyama: Eh?! Why are you so mad at me?! *crying, whining* Waaah! Wah ah! *holding the council president's right leg*

Asobi: Stop crying like a little girl and get off me!

Inuyama: But...

Me-chand: *finally able to throw up automatically*

Inuyama: Excuse me! *now away with the student council president*

Everyone started looking at her weirdly as they left.)

---

Tûp: (Translation: Is that a potential recruit for my new BeKan right here?)

Asobi: *jumps out of her skin*

Tûp: *dances*

She is now a BeKan.)

Inuyama: *transforms*

The other girls came and transformed as well.)

Cure Logic: *having a hard time defending herself and hitting*

Cure Professional: *furious* We want to go back to this festival again! And you are not allowed to ruin it! *to Tûp* Taking the advantage of others' negative emotions isn't fair, Tûpping Jerk!

Tûp: *very angry by what she called her* (Translation: Who are you talking to?!)

BeKan: *shoots meshes at the cures*

Cure Reason: *creates a shield to stop them* Protect the Light, condemn the Dark! For all that is HOLY! Make this tomorrow full of happiness! Haaaaaah!

Tûp: (Translation: That is usel- wait?! WhHere did it come fro-) *she catches fire from the lower part of her legs because of her words* Aaaaah!! *cries hysterically*

Cure Logic: *trying not to laugh*

Cure Professional: Focus! Haaaaaaah!! *attacks the BeKan*

BeKan: *fires more meshes at them and beams*

Cure Logic: *sends a punch back at them*

The BeKan: *attacks, attacks, attacks all the cures*

Tûp: *gets down on, shocked* (Translation: D-Darn it! This is impossible!)

BeKan: *beams at the girls*

Cure Logic: AAAAAAAH!! Ugh...

Tûp: (Translation: Hahahahaha! You are weak! It's over! Just like this festival should be!)

Cure Bon: No, this festival won't be over yet! Everyone pulled all their hearts into the challenges and had fun there! You can't understand that!

Cure Logic: ...T-That's right... It's amazing and compelling! So precious, like fun!

Tûp: (Translation: You can't say that when you have a ugly and horrendous type of clothing!)

Cure Logic: WHY YOU!!

Cure Reason: It was extremely rude and irrelevant!

BeKan: *shoots meshes at her and catches her*

Cure Reason: Run, Bon! Hurry!

Cure Bon: *fighting* No! I... won't run away!

Cure Professional: L-Let her... Let her have her moment.

Cure Logic: *kicks the BeKan with both of her legs, so much pressure went into the kick that she can't feel her feet anymore, she falls on her face in pain* P-Please... carry on... President!

Cure Reason: *protecting Cure Logic from any other attacks* I will end this now... Faith Prayers! *she purified the BeKan back to normal*

The student council president: ...

Tûp: ×/@/¥×(@(@*@#,,#,#¥+₩+£@*@&#;@₩₩!₩+₩¥+*#??$," (Translation: *weird noises* What a complete waste of time!) *disappears*

Inuyama: *approaching Asobi* Are you okay?

Asobi: I felt like I was stupid... but I'm sorry for what I said, I don't hate you anymore.

Inuyama: It's alright now.

---

Arigaoa: The festival is finally over, it feels like it lasted forever... But Me-chand, you weren't acting obedient here, what wasn't okay with you? I saw that you almost got Inuyama injured and could have ended her in a ride...

Me-chand: I'm not an idiot. I knew it couldn't be like that so I participated in this festival thinking it was a joke.

Arigaoa: Hurting people and stealing their prizes isn't funny...

Me-chand: ...

Arigaoa: It seems like you only did that because it was entertaining. I think you should take a break from all of this and spend some time with me.

Me-chand: ...I don't understand how to respond to that.

Arigaoa: You don't have to though! I can't believe you would take the risk of hurting someone that much for something like this. I mean, you were a pessimist before but not that spiteful. You need to stop.

Me-chand: You know I was always like that, but... I won't try to be anymore. I actually have a split personality.

Arigaoa: What? Why didn't you tell me earlier?

Me-chand: I was worried about it affecting my relationships and the situation I'm in at the moment.

Shikuna: You mean you had two personalities?

Me-chand: Do you really want to know?

Arigaoa: Tell me everything you know.

Me-chand: *sighs and looks at the front camera*
