"Are you okay?" asked a voice. There was a groan. "Can you open your eyes?"

She tried but when she did there was a blinding light though it only lasted a few seconds. Her vision was blurry for a moment but she gained clarity.

"I'm...in a bed?"

"Yes. How do you feel?" asked a voice. She turned and stared wide eyed for a moment. In front of her, sitting on a chair, was a small purple horse with a horn and wings. "I must be dreaming."

"Actually, you just woke up." replied the horse. "You and your friends crashed through a window of my castle last night."

"My..." she began before getting up and looking around. She was in a large crystal room with five other beds around her with five other girls on them.

"Where am I? What is this place?" she asked and then turned to the horse. "And who...what are you?"

"Well, to answer your questions in order: You're in Equestria, more precisely in the Castle of Friendship in Ponyville. I am Princess Twilight Sparkle, one of the four Princesses of Equestria. I'm an Alicorn Pony and the Princess of Friendship. Can you tell me your name?"

"Oh. I'm sorry for being rude. My name is Usami Ichika." she introduced herself." the girl introduced herself. "So, what happened?"

"There isn't much to tell." said Twilight. "Sometime late last night I was sleeping and loud crash woke me up. My assistant and I investigated and we found you and your friends in the throne room, one of the windows shattered. Can you tell me what happened to you?"

"What happened?" asked Ichika looking up for a moment before gasping. "There's something dangerous coming!" she said loudly.

"I don't wanna go to school." said a blue haired girl.

"Ao-chan! Everyone! Wake up!" yelled out Ichika startling the others awake.

"What's the deal?" asked Ao before realizing their surroundings.

"It looks like we made it through." said a girl with short dark red hair who looked to be one of the oldest of the group.

"Yes but where are we?" asked a girl with longish brown hair who seemed to be about the same age as Ichika.

"It looks like we're in a place called Equestria. In the castle of a pony Princess!" The others looked at their friend surprised and then noticed Twilight. Four of the girls were at a loss for words but the blond who looked to have stars in her eyes smiled and jumped out of bed.

"Bonjour Princess. My name is Kirahoshi Ciel. I'm sure Ichika already introduced herself." She turned to the others who all got out of the beds they were in.

"Pardon our rudeness Princess." said the older purple haired girl. "I'm Kotozume Yukari."

"I'm Kenjou Akira." said the redhead.

"Name's Tategami Aoi." said Ao.

"I'm Arisugawa Himari." said the shorter brown-haired girl.

"It's nice to meet all of you. I'm Twilight Sparkle. So, can you explain to me how you came to be at my castle and why you came through the window?"

"We came through the window?" asked Himari surprised.

"Yes. It was quite loud." said Twilight.

"We're actually here to help you." said Ichika.

"Help us?" asked Twilight. The six girls nodded.

"We've been fighting an enemy called Noir who wants to steal Kira Kiraru." explained Ichika.

"Alright. Hold on. I'll have my assistant alert my friends to come to the castle so you can explain." said Twilight. "In the meantime, we'll be having breakfast soon so you can head to the throne room since that's where we usually meet for things like this. I've already had Spike take some pancakes there for you. Just head downstairs. The throne room's the one with the biggest doors." she said before leaving. Once she was gone most of the girls let out surprised gasps.

"It wasn't just me, right? We were really just talking to a little horse with a horn and wings." said Aoi.

"Indeed. How interesting." said Yukari with a smile.

"I'm more concerned with the fact that we seem to be speaking perfect english." said Himari.

"Eh. Really?" asked Aoi before she realized it was true.

"For now, we need to focus on protecting them from Noir's forces." said Akira.

"I still don't understand why you were so surprised. I mean I'm a fairy." said Ciel.

"That is true." said Akira. "We've definitely seen strange things since we became Pretty Cure." It was then all their stomachs growled simultaneously.

"I guess we should go have some breakfast. We can't fight on empty stomachs." said Aoi. The others agreed and stepped out of the room, becoming shocked at how massive the castle was. "I think this place is bigger than my house." she said.

"It seems it's made entirely of crystal." said Himari touching the wall.

"We can ask about it later. Let's go get breakfast." said Aoi. It took them a few minutes to find the stairs but eventually they went down and found their way to the throne room where, to their surprise, somehow, they saw a very small chubby reptilian creature placing plates of pancakes on what looked to be a table which had a map on it.

"Oh. Good morning." said the reptile.

"Um...Good morning." said Ichika.

"Bonjour. If I may ask: what are you?" asked Ciel.

"I'm a baby dragon. My name's Spike."

"Wow. You are really quite cute." said Yukari kneeling down to his height.

"Hey, I'm not..." he began before she began rubbing his chin causing a content smile to appear on his face which caused her to giggle. Then she stood up and looked at the several plates of pancakes. "Quite impressive. You made these yourself?"

"Yeah. I do all the cooking since Twilight burns everything she cooks. Even water." This caused the girls to giggle. "Help yourselves. I'll bring the syrup." he said before leaving. Each of the girls grabbed a plate, each of which had three pancakes. Spike returned not long after with two bottles of syrup. The girls began eating waiting for Twilight to return.

In that time Twilight waited outside for her friends, mostly to try to figure out how to explain to them that six human girls had crashed through the window. Luckily she didn't have to wait long since it seemed all of them were arriving.

"Darling, what is so urgent we had to come this early?" asked Rarity.

"First I need you to meet our guests." replied Twilight leading them inside.

"Guests?" asked the girls surprised as they followed.

"That's weird. My Pinkie Sense didn't pick up on anyone new." said Pinkie confused.

"So who are they?" asked Rainbow.

"I'm not entirely sure. They did give me their names which were strange." replied Twilight.

"What were they?" asked Pinkie.

"I'll let them tell you." replied Twilight as she opened the doors. The five newly arrived mares became surprised to see the six human girls, as far as they could tell but there was something that confused them.

"Twilight, darling. As I recall you described humans in the world behind the mirror has having skin tones akin to our fur colors but they all seem to be of the tone." said Rarity.

"I was wondering about that myself." said Twilight. "But it seems they have something urgent to warn us about." she explained leading them to the humans, all whom took a bit to notice them as they finished eating. Pinkie was about to try to jump at them but found something was weighing her down. She looked at her back hooves and found a light purple weight shackled to her.

"Pinkie we don't need you startling them." said Twilight. "Besides we can get to personal questions once they explain this threat they came to warn us about."

"Aw." pouted Pinkie as the shackles vanished. The six girls walked up to them but only now did the six ponies noticed one of the girls carried what almost looked like a lunchbox or a portable playhouse while another carried a very cute but somewhat strange looking cream colored plushie which had ears that seemed to be glowing and a white tuft on its head which resembled whipped cream. Twilight smiled.

"I'd like you to meet my friends." she said. Introductions on both sides were made, mostly, so Twilight and her friends sat at their thrones.

"Now then. Can you explain to us how you got here and why you're here?" asked Twilight. The girls looked at each other before five of them turned to look at Ichika who sighed.

"We got here though a portal." replied Ichika. "Over the last few months we've been fighting the forces of an enemy known as Noir. All we really know is that they want to use Kira Kiraru for evil and stain it in darkness."

"And what exactly is that Ki-ki-..." began Applejack. Ciel stepped forward.

"Kira Kiraru is a powerful energy that dwells within sweets and the hearts of living beings."

"Within sweets?" asked the mares confused. Ciel nodded.

"Though most can't see it the stronger the feelings in any kind of sweets the brighter the Kira Kiraru becomes."

"So this villain Noir sent others here to take this?" asked Twilight. The girls nodded.

"What can they do with it?" asked Applejack.

"A lot." replied Akira. "We've also learned that they're actually able to rip the Kira Kiraru out of the hearts of others. In doing so whoever had their Kira Kiraru taken loses consciousness."

"What exactly do they do with that ki-stuff anyway?" asked Rainbow.

"The first few enemies we fought would consume it from sweets, which would make them lose their luster. When they did they'd become bigger and stronger, looking to keep getting more and more. We had an enemy who showed up later and would compress it into his weapon to make it change into others. An enemy who came later had some sort of stuffed animal which would swallow it and turn it into a much bigger creature which would take on a form resembling whatever sweets they took it from." explained Akira.

"Our most recent foes seem to stain the Kira Kiraru they take and then infuse it into objects in order to turn them into monsters which are hybrids of both some type of sweets and whatever they fused the evil energy into." explained Yukari.

"Why did they come here?" asked Twilight.

"We're not really sure of that ourselves." replied Ichika. "We were investigating some strange occurrences and we found them in a cave which had some sort of portal open. They said they had found a world where there was a lot of Kira Kiraru and after they took over this world they come back for ours but we couldn't let that happen."

"So you've been fighting these enemies yourselves?" asked Applejack. The six nodded. "How have y'all been doin' that?"

"We're the Legendary Pâtissier: Pretty Cure." replied Ichika. "We have the power to transform and fight using Kira Kiraru."

"So someone named Noir sent others here to Equestria in order to steal something called Kira Kiraru which is something born of the hearts of others and in sweets made with strong feelings behind them. The six of you are able to use that same Kira Kiraru to fight Noir's forces and wound up here by chasing them. Is that about it?"

"Yeah. I think that's everything." said Ichika turning to her friends.

"So you girls know how to make really yummy desserts?" asked Pinkie.

"We're still learning but in our town everyone loves our sweets." said Ichika excited. "Actually if there's a big enough space we could set up shop."

"Set up shop?" asked the mares.

"You could just come with me back to Sugarcube Corner." suggested Pinkie Pie.

"Pinkie I don't think the kitchen would be big enough for all of them." said Rainbow.

"You could set up just outside the castle since there isn't much that's directly around us." suggested Twilight.

"That could work." said Aoi turning to Yukari who still held the plushie which seemed to be sleeping. "Sheesh. How long is she gonna sleep?"

"Considering how we landed it might be best if she sleeps for a bit longer." said Yukari.

"In any case let's go outside." said Ichika. Once they got outside they became surprised at the fact they seemed to have exited a crystal castle which seemed to be connected to a crystal tree of some kind.

"That is so cool!" said Aoi.

"Looks like there's quite a bit of open space around." said Yukari.

"Let's set up shop." said Ichika as they went to the right of the castle. When the human girls were certain they were far enough Ichika knelt down to the object, which looked like a portable doll house, and place her hand as though opening a lunch box. "KiraPati open!" To the surprise of the ponies the item seemed to jump back as the top opened causing big puff of smoke surprising them.

"This is amazing. Where did you get it?" asked Twilight.

"Chourou decided to let us use this place to get better at making sweets." replied Ichika as they entered.

"Who is this Chourou?" asked Twilight.

"He's a fairy like Pekorin." replied Yukari looking at the small plushie looking creature in her arms.

"That weird stuffed animal's a fairy?" asked Rainbow.

"She unconscious right now but yes." said Yukari as they entered a wide area which looked like a restaurant space before they tables are set.

"Just sit where ever you want. We'll be right back." said Ichika as she headed to the kitchen followed by her friends. Twilight and her friends looked around, all of them still feeling impressed by how the place had become big without an external spell.

"Hey Twilight." said Applejack getting the Princess' attention. "Do you think we should be worried?"

"I'm not sure." replied Twilight. "At first it sounded like nonsense but if they came all this way to help us we shouldn't underestimate the enemies this Noir might have sent."

"We probably won't need them. After all we've got our Rainbow Power!" declared Rainbow.

"I'm not sure that would do anything." said Twilight concerned. The others looked at her surprised.

"Wh-What do you mean?" asked Fluttershy.

"If the enemies these girls have been facing are able to weaponize something that comes from the hearts our power might not work in the same way. It's possible we could hurt others. I think their power might be specific."

"I still think we could..." began Rainbow before they felt the ground shake.

"What was that?" asked Applejack. It was then they saw the girls run past them.

"Where are you going?" asked Pinkie.

"That might be one of Noir's generals attacking." replied Akira as they ran. The ponies looked at each other and then ran after them. The group arrived at the school where several fillies and colts were staring at a dust cloud.

"Apple Bloom!"

"Sweetie Belle!"

"Scoots!"

The three older sisters called to their younger sisters. The girls were surprised to see a massive turtle like creature whose body and shell had been replaced with what looked like a pie.

"What in tarnation is that?" asked Applejack.

"Looks like they were eager to make their move." said Ciel. Ichika turned to Twilight.

"Leave this to us and get them away." she instructed as the six pulled out what looked like compact mirrors. All six opened them as they began to glow brightly forcing the ponies to cover their eyes.

"Cure Á La Mode! Decoration!" called out all six.

"Shortcake!" called out Ichika.

"Pudding!" called out Himari.

"Ice Cream!" called out Aoi.

"Macaron!" called out Yukari.

"Chocolate!" called out Akira.

"Parfait!" called out Ciel.

"Liveliness and Smiles!"

"Intelligence and Courage!"

"Freedom and Passion!"

"Beauty and Excitement!"

"Strength and Love!"

"Dreams and Hope!"

"Let's - la - mix it up!" called out all six together.

"Cure Whip!" called out Ichika.

"Cure Custard!" called out Himari.

"Cure Gelato!" called out Aoi.

"Cure Macaron!" called out Yukari.

"Cure Chocolat!" called out Akira.

"Cure Parfait!" called out Ciel.

"Ready to serve!" called out all six.

"KiraKira Pretty Cure Á La Mode!" called out the six girls. Once the light was finally gone the ponies looked at the girls in shock. They could kind of tell who was who but only because their hair colors stayed somewhat similar, mostly just becoming brighter. What really shocked them was that they each now seemed to have animal parts. The one they were sure was Ichika, now not only had two large tails tied back, had two large bunny ears coming out of the top of her head, shoes with that resembled bunny feet, and a bunny tail though her dress reminded them of strawberry shortcake. The girl that resembled Himari was now wearing a fairly bright yellow dress but what shocked them the most was that she had squirrel ears and a large squirrel tail. Aoi, now all in blue and white, mostly resembled a lion even having a mane and a tail. Yukari now wore a purple dress that looked like a maid uniform but had cat ears and a tail. Akira was now all in red but with dog ears and a tail, though the weirdest thing seemed to be that she was wearing a chocolate hat which looked like it was kind of melting. Rainbow looked at Ciel who now had light pink hair similar to Fluttershy but was in a light blue and white dress and had a rainbow at her right side and a small pair of wings. To her it almost felt like looking in a mirror which didn't make any sense to her.

The six pulled out what looked like strangely decorated batons which each had a compartment that seemed to have sparkling stars. They jumped, surrounding the turtle pie. Custard, Gelato, Macaron, and Chocolat thrust their weapons forward launching a strange looking substance which kind of resembled the sweets each Cure seemed to be named after. Custard and Gelato got its arms while Macaron and Chocolat got its legs. The four, however, were caught by surprise when it retracted its limbs and began spinning rapidly in the air.

Twilight and her friends had been watching in shock before they finally realized the kids were in danger. The six ran in and found the CMC trying to move Miss Cheerilee who was unconscious.

"What happened?" asked Twilight.

"We don't know." replied Apple Bloom. "We came inside to see Miss Cheerilee and then the ground just started shaking."

"We found her like this." added Sweetie Belle.

"Let's get you four out of here." said Twilight lifting Miss Cheerilee with her magic. Twilight and the Crusaders ran outside while the others checked the other doors to make sure there wasn't anyone else, becoming surprised when Whip and Chocolat crashed through the roof.

"What the..." began Scootaloo.

"Just keep going." ordered Chocolat as the two got up and she thrust her weapon causing the red material which came out of it to form a chocolate square shield allowing them to get out. Once the ponies were out Chocolat undid her shield and the two jumped out the same hole they'd entered from.

"What are they?" asked Sweetie Belle, now that they were far enough to observe the battle, the rest of the kids being a few yards behind them. Whip went in to try to land on it but it began spinning and launched her in front of the ponies. She was panting but still held her weapon.

"Something's wrong." said Whip. "They're normally nowhere near this strong."

"It might be the ambient magic!" called out Twilight.

"The what?" asked Whip.

"Equestria has magic everywhere. Even in the air itself. You might be able to tap into it if you try." explained Twilight.

"I'll try." said Whip. She began focusing and began glowing. She jumped towards the monster but, to the shock of the ponies, she jumped with so much force that her lift off from the ground somehow made a burst of air which forced them to cover their eyes. This didn't go unnoticed by the others, even the monster, who turned and saw her jump insanely high.

"I think she's gonna be up there a while." said Gelato.

"I'll go get her." said Parfait flying upwards, but going so fast she left a rainbow trail behind her. The other four Cures looked at each other, realizing what this meant, and smiled. The four charged at the turtle pie which began to spin and headed towards Custard who ran much faster than normal and slid under it. Gelato got in front of it and let out a roar which released a sound wave so loud the monster was immobilized. Macaron jumped to Gelato's right while Chocolat jumped out of her left side. It was then Macaron spun the sphere of her weapon.

"KiraKira Kiraru!" she called out swinging her weapon which formed a large macaron which looked like a yoyo which formed spikes in the filling. "Macaron Julienne!" she called out launching it as it split into six more spiked macarons which wrapped themselves around the pie turtle. Gelato punched it back as Chocolat spun the containment sphere on her weapon.

"Kirakira Kiraru!" she called out. "Chocolät Aromase!" she yelled out launching a vertical twister of liquid chocolate which kept it down. Gelato spun the sphere on her own weapon.

"Kirakira Kiraru!" she yelled out as a massive block of ice formed above her which she rapidly punched. "Gelato Shake!" she called out punching it a final time causing it to shatter and fly almost like a snowstorm which froze it. Parfait had made it ahead of Whip and took her hand before rapidly spinning her throwing her back which allowed her to land on the ground near her friends.

"Let's finish this." said Whip. The four gathered with her holding out their weapons.

"Candy Rod!" called out all five spinning the spheres of their weapons. "Kirakira Kiraru, Full Charge!" After the five jumped with a trail of energy matching their colors behind them. Custard spun releasing a lot of the substance that came out of her Candy Rod. Gelato then came releasing a lot of the cold blue substance from her own which mixed with the yellow one creating a large yellow cylindrical shape which was narrow at one end and wide at the other. Macaron then made another spiked macaron which cut the object into five. Chocolat then coated the five with what looked like red frosting flames. Finally Whip launched some of the substance into the air which formed strawberries and frosting which coated the five parts and were topped with strawberries at the edges. After the biggest section of what looked like a five-layered strawberry with vanilla frosting cake which landed on the monster from the widest layer to the smallest. The five then landed in front of the cake holding out their now glowing Candy Rods. "Three! Two! Wonderful!" they yelled out as the cake became clear white energy. "Á La Mode!" yelled out the girls as they spun the spherical containers on their weapons. The massive five layered energy cake began glowing gold before they held up their weapons causing the layers to change colors becoming red, purple, blue, yellow, and pink from bottom to top before the cake exploded, splitting the turtle pie into a turtle plushie and a pie as several sparkling stars began raining down. Parfait flew, catching the pie and plushie, before landing with them as the ponies went up to them.

"That was so awesome!" yelled out Pinkie jumping around them.

"I never knew sweets could do so much!" said Rainbow impressed.

"How did you do that?" asked Twilight as the six girls changed back.

"It's our power as Pretty Cure." replied Ichika.

"Pardon me but who do these belong to?" asked Ciel holding the pie and the plushie.

"The turtle's mine!" called out Scootaloo running up to them. Ciel smiled and knelt down, handing her the plushie.

"I think that's the pie Cheerilee ordered as dessert for the kids." said Applejack. Ciel smiled.

"You made it, didn't you?" she asked the cowpony surprising her. "It has a lot of Kira Kiraru." she said handing it to her.

"I guess that means it's good." said Applejack.

"It means you put your heart into it." said Ciel.

"I guess what we were saying before makes a bit more sense now." said Himari.

"Yes...it does. So this stuff is what you called Kira Kiraru?" asked Twilight looking at the rain of sparkling stars.

"That's right." said Ichika. "We should get back to the KiraPati. We left Pekorin mixing the batter."

"Excuse me." said Sweetie Belle getting the attention of the girls. "Just what are you?" Ichika giggled.

"We're the Legendary Pâtissier: Pretty Cure." she replied with a smile. Sweetie looked at the girls a bit confused and turned to Twilight.

"A Pâtissier is somepony who cooks but exclusively focuses on desserts." explained Twilight.

"So you're bakers?" asked Apple Bloom.

"Not really. We make all kinds of sweets." replied Ichika. "Pastries, candy, even ice cream."

"Really?" asked the entire class surrounding them.

"We can make some later if you'd like." said Ciel looking at them with a smile. "But first we need to focus on our mission of stopping the villain who created that monster."

"Do you know who it was that did that?" asked Pinkie.

"It was definitely one of Noir's guys. The question is whether it was Grave or Elisio." said Akira.

"It was probably Elisio or else we would've heard a car horn before the monster appeared." said Yukari. "So what do we do?"

"We need to head back." said Himari urgently. "We left Pekorin taking care of the sweets!"

"Ah. That's right!" said Ichika before the six girls took off. The ponies looked surprised for a moment.

"Applejack what's goin' on?" asked Apple Bloom.

"I'll tell ya later. For now just head on to class sugarcube." replied Applejack before she and her friends went after the humans.

They arrived back at the KiraPati a few minutes later. Akira waited in the empty area for them where she asked them to wait.

"Pardon me for asking but why are we waiting?" asked Rarity.

"Ichika-chan felt we needed to thank you for how you've helped us so we're making something special for you." she replied.

"And here it is!" declared Ichika as her and the others entered with trays. On each of them were fruit tarts which had the fruits arranged so they would resemble each of them.

"We hope you like them." said Ichika. Twilight used her magic to take all six tarts and placed them in front of each of the respective owners.

"This is amazing." said Twilight. "I suppose this is why your sweets are loved in your town."

"That too." said Ichika. "But there is one other thing." she said as each of the others went up to one of the ponies placing a hand on their heads which confused them. To their surprise they were able to see stars which gave off a bright colorful light.

"This is...?" began Twilight.

"Kira Kiraru. Our feelings in our sweets." explained Ichika.

"These tarts are so wonderfully decorated. It's a shame to eat them." said Rarity.

"But if we don't then it would just be a waste." said Rainbow before taking a bite out of her own. "This is awesome!" she said shocked. The others tried their own and were left surprised at how good it tasted. Evidentially the tarts were so good that they even left Pinkie speechless. Once they'd finished she went up to them.

"You must teach me your secrets!" she declared.

"There isn't really a secret to it." said Ichika scratching her cheek. "We try to use the freshest ingredients for things like this but the most important thing is to put your feelings into whatever you make. Especially when you're making something for someone."

"Since we've thanked them maybe we should figure out what we're going to do." said Akira.

"At the very least we've learned something." said Yukari. "When we transform here our power increases more than normal."

"But it isn't just us." said Aoi. "Any monsters they make will be stronger here than they would be back home."

"The best thing we can do is try to find a way back home so we can figure out a way to force them back." said Ciel.

"That might not be so simple." said Twilight catching their attention. "After I saw where you'd entered from I scanned the area but there was no residual energy or anything."

"Would it be possible for you to use your magic to send us back?" asked Himari.

"Maybe if I had some way to lock onto your magical signatures from back in your world but with you here it probably wouldn't work." explained Twilight.

"What do you mean?" asked Aoi.

"From what I could tell when you were fighting the six of you give off a very unique magical signature. If at least one of you was back in your world I could trace your magic back to your world and open a temporary tunnel." explained Twilight. The six Cures looked at each other a bit uncertain. "Hold on. Are there more of you?"

"Kinda." replied Aoi.

"We're the currently active Pretty Cure." explained Yukari. "There's actually eleven teams of Pretty Cure which preceded us."

"Do all of you have the same power?" asked Twilight.

"If you mean being able to use Kira Kiraru then no." replied Ichika. "Each team has its own enemies to fight who attacked different things. For example the team who we know as the Heartcatch Pretty Cure fought to protect people's heart flowers."

"Heart flowers?" asked the ponies. Ichika nodded.

"From what Tsubomi-senpai told me every flower that exists represents something different. For example Itsuki-senpai's is a Peony which symbolizes rebirth."

"There's also the Princess Pretty Cure who would transform with keys they put into these perfume bottles." said Akira. "Their enemies would lock dreams in cages which became monsters."

"So each of your predecessors fight using something different?" asked Twilight. The girls nodded. "I'll check the library in the castle. I think there's a book which has a spell we could use. Once I find it I'll need to tweak it to accommodate for the jump between realities. In the meantime maybe you girls could show them around town."

"Sorry but I still got chores to do around Sweet Apple Acres." said Applejack.

"If you need any help I'd be glad to lend a hand." said Akira.

"Ya wouldn't mind? We don't have as many trees to harvest but we do have a lot of farm work today." explained Applejack.

"Just leave it to me." said Akira with a confident smile.

"If y'all are sure then let's go." said Applejack with Akira following her.

"Ever the prince." said Yukari with a giggle.

"Pardon me darling but you seem to understand a thing or two about fashion." said Rarity going up to Yukari.

"I've been told as much from time to time." she replied.

"If it wouldn't be a problem would you allow me to design a dress for you?"

"You're a seamstress?" asked Yukari curiously.

"Rarity's the best fashion designer in aaaaall of Equestria." said Pinkie excited.

"Then this might be interesting." said Yukari walking off with Rarity as Rainbow walked up to Ciel.

"What's the deal with you?"

"What do you mean?" asked Ciel a bit confused.

"You...turned into a pegasus." replied Rainbow.

"Each of our animal sweets is based on what animal fits us the most and in our world pegasi are considered mythical animals and Ichika felt I resembled one." replied Ciel.

"If you're a pegasus then maybe you could help me out with the weather." suggested Rainbow.

"Help with the weather?" asked the human girls surprised.

"Why are you surprised?" asked Rainbow.

"In our world weather isn't controlled by anyone or anything." explained Himari. "It happens on its own."

"That's weird." said Rainbow. "So you don't know anything about weather control?"

"No but maybe learning might help me come up with some new sweets." Ciel said.

"Then we better get going." said Rainbow.

"Oui." said Ciel running after Rainbow, and transforming once they were outside. 

"I should get going too. I need to take care of my animal friends." muttered Fluttershy.

"Is it okay if I go with you?" asked Aoi surprising the shy pegasus.

"I can tell you're kinda shy." said Aoi with a large grin. "Don't worry. If it helps just think of me as a new lion you've made friends with."

"Oh, um. Okay. Then come along miss Lion." said Fluttershy.

"I might be a lion but I still have a name." muttered Aoi following the yellow pegasus.

Pinkie ran up to Ichika.

"Can you pretty please teach me about making sweets so they can be as awesome as yours?" asked Pinkie in one breath. Ichika looked at her surprised before smiling. "I'm not sure how much I can teach you but if you'd like we can just make sweets in the kitchen."

"If that's the case then I'll come as well. After all Sweets are Science." said Himari.

"Alright. I'm sure the other will be back once they get hungry so let's get started." said Ichika raising her fist. "Let's la cooking!"

Applejack and Akira arrived back at Sweet Apple Acres. Big Mac was taking a break and saw the two, raising an eyebrow before going up to them.

"Hey Big Mac." He nodded. "This here's...uh..."

"I'm Kenjou Akira but you can just call me Akira if you'd prefer." she introduced herself.

"Yeah. There's a lot to explain but right now she offered to help us with the extra chores on the farm."

"What should I start with?"

"Why don't ya show her?" Big Mac nodded and walked off with Akira in tow. They went to the barn where Big Mac pointed to the pitchfork.

"Y’all can start off feedin' the cows and pigs. Just..."

"Don't worry. I've worked on farms before so I know what to do." said Akira.

"Then y'all might wanna introduce yourself to the cows. Ya never know what might spook em."

"Oh. Um. Sure, okay." she said letting the stallion lead her to them. Akira felt a bit silly but figured she was already in a world of colorful talking ponies. It couldn't get much sillier than that. Once they arrived the cows turned to her. "My name is Kenjou Akira. While Applejack and Big Mac are taking care of the apples I've been asked to feed you."

"Oh. Well then it's nice to meet you." This caught her off guard.

'I transform into a dog based heroine with power over sweets and are friends with two fairies. How am I surprised?' Akira thought to herself while she smiled.

"Alright then. Let's get started." she said pulling out an object which kind of looked like her Candy Rod but had an opening at the bottom where she inserted a dog shaped crystal vase. "I hope you don't mind but she needs some fresh air." she said as the vase became a crystal animal. Big Mac looked surprised at the tiny crystal dog which was cute and about the size of a mouse.

Rarity and Yukari entered Carousel Boutique and the human girl was impressed.

"Welcome to Carousel Boutique. Where everything is chic, unique, and magnifique." said Rarity.

"My. You seem to be very dedicated."

"Of course. Fashion is my life after all." said Rarity. "Now then, shall we get started?"

"Would you mind if I let a cat out?" asked Yukari.

"You have a pet cat?" asked Rarity surprised.

"Something like that." replied Yukari pulling out a weapon different than her Candy Rod in which she put in a cat shaped crystal vase at the top causing it to become a fully alive crystal cat but very small.

"Oh my. That is quite impressive." said Rarity. "You must be quite good with magic."

"We all have them. We didn't let them out before to avoid scaring the town." explained Yukari holding the small crystal cat in her hand. "Don't cause trouble." she said. The cat meowed and jump out of her hand.

"Alright. If you would just step over here." said Rarity leading her to the back. "Could you spread your...I suppose those aren't forelegs, are they?"

"My arms?" asked Yukari holding up her hands.

"Right. Your arms." Yukari smiled and held her arms apart. Rarity began to measure making sure to get everything she'd need. "Would you have a preference?"

"Surprise me." said Yukari with a Cheshire grin.

"Oh I do love a challenge. I shall begin posthaste." Yukari felt a bit excited at what this unicorn would make, although she was certain part of her excitement came from being with a true to life unicorn. Something she's only thought of as a child. 'This has been a day quite full of excitement.' she thought to herself.

Aoi arrived with Fluttershy at her cottage where Aoi became surprised just from when they neared the place. She saw quite the variety of animals. She could even swear she saw a bear asleep under a tree.

"You know a lot of animals, don't you?"

"Oh yes. They're all very good friends of mine." replied Fluttershy.

"Then I hope you don't mind if my little lion joins us." said Aoi. This caused Fluttershy to turn to her to ask what she meant when she saw the blue haired girl pull out an item in which she put a crystal vase shaped like a lion which then became a crystal lion surprising the shy pegasus. 

"Oh my. That is so cute!" she said going up to the tiny lion which was in now Aoi's hand.

"Ain't it?" said Aoi with a smirk before putting it in her head. "Alright. Where do we start?"

"If you wouldn't mind could you feed the chickens while I feed the ducks?"

"Alright. Where's the chicken feed?" Fluttershy led her to the kitchen and pointed to a large sack.

"Just be careful. It's heavy."

"Don't worry about it." said Aoi lifting the sack up with one arm surprising Fluttershy who regained herself and grabbed a smaller bag. The two went out back where they began feeding some of the animals.

"Could you get the cooler inside?" asked Fluttershy.

"Sure thing." said Aoi. The two worked pretty well together and Aoi became impressed the sheer number of animals which seemed to be fed by Fluttershy. She had to admit it. The pegasus, despite how shy she was, had to be one of the most dedicated...ponies she'd ever met.

Parfait and Rainbow were moving clouds around. She was quite surprised to find out that having a pegasus animal sweet allowed her to use pegasus magic in this world. She had to admit that the clouds were extremely fluffy. Although what had caught her by surprise the most was the fact that she seemed to be able to fly much faster.

"I gotta say, this feels weird." said Rainbow getting Parfait's attention.

"What does?"

"I don't know why but seeing you makes me feel like I'm looking at myself only not."

"Your name is Rainbow Dash, right?" The mare nodded. "I suppose that's why." she said. "Most of my friends gained their animal sweets when they expressed strong feelings towards a specific sweet made for them but mind was a combination of their Kira Kiraru as well as some waffles my brother made for me and my own Kira Kiraru. All of this combined in my Pegasus Parfait resulted in it having a rainbow instead of a single color."

"Kinda reminds me of how my friends and I got our Cutie Marks." said Rainbow as they landed on a cloud.

"Your Cutie Marks?" asked Parfait.

"Right. I guess you humans don't have them." Parfait gave an amused look. "This is a Cutie Mark." she said pointing to her own. "Everypony get theirs when they find what their special talent is."

"So when you said we...?"

"My friends and I got our Cutie Marks at the same time. Wanna hear the story?"

"Oui."

"We?" asked Rainbow.

"It's French. It means yes." said Parfait.

"Oh. Well it all started..." began Rainbow with Parfait looking at her quite interested.

For a bit Ichika and Yukari had been trying to figure out what to make before Pekorin suggested cream puffs which were a pastry Pinkie hadn't heard of, getting her excited. Earlier they'd also allowed their own Crystal Animals out, allowing them to run around which surprised Pinkie. The two human girls made sure to emphasize to Pinkie just how important precision was to making these pastries. They made sure to tell Pinkie the timing had to be precise once they got them in the oven or else they'd have to start from the beginning. They showed Pinkie how to make the batter which all four of them made sure to put their everything into and after began creating forms on the pan they were putting in the oven, making half of them resemble each of the ponies from the side while the others looked like the animals which represented each of their friends and themselves. While the cream puffs cooked Pinkie wondered about something.

"How did all of you become friends?" asked Pinkie getting their attention.

"It was mostly thanks to Pekorin." said Ichika looking at the small fairy who became embarrassed.

"I didn't have anything to do with it-peko."

"If I hadn't met you then I wouldn't have been able to make my strawberry shortcake or become a Pretty Cure." said Ichika.

"And if Ichika-chan hadn't become a Pretty Cure it's unlikely any of us would have since she was the reason the rest of us were able to do so." explained Himari.

"Wowee. So you're all super best friends?!" asked Pinkie excited.

"I suppose we are." said Himari. "After all we each bring something to the group which helps all the rest improve both as a whole and individually."

"Like what?" asked Pinkie.

"Well Ichika-chan always keeps us in good spirits no matter how desperate things may seem or how many times we fail at making something."

"Himari makes sure we use exact amounts and do things the right way to make sure we do get things right." said Ichika with a smile. "Then there's Ao-chan who moves around the heavy stuff and keeps us going with her music."

"Yukari-san is the one who decorates the KiraPati when we're gonna open so people come back and she tends to be like a big sister to us." added Himari. "Then there's Akira-san who will help in any way she can and is always encouraging everyone. She'll usually be the one who goes shopping and she usually takes Yukari-san."

"And of course there's Ciel who helps us with her experience from when she studied in France. She usually makes sure that we're thinking straight."

"Akira's a girl?!"

"Yeah. I was surprised too." said Ichika scratching her cheek with a light embarrassed blush.

"So you're all super ultra-best friends."

"I suppose so." said Ichika as Himari went to check on the cream puffs. "How about you and your friends?"

"Oh it's the awesomest story you've ever heard!" said Pinkie. "See what happened is that..."

Twilight was trying to find an old journal she was certain had a spell she needed but was unsure of where she'd left it. She remembered reading it the other day when she was wondering about the possibility using it to locate other at long distance though she also considered the possibility of using it to lock onto Sunset's magical signature to see if the portal would work without the journal. Twilight had been sure she'd put it away but...oh right. She just remembered that when she'd gone back to the library before going back to bed last night she'd seen that some of the books had fallen.

"Spike!"

"Yes Twilight?"

"Do you remember where Starswirl's journal is? The one that had the incomplete tracking spell?"

"I don't know which one that one is..."

"Just bring me all the journals that fell last night." she instructed.

"Alright." he said trying to remember. It took him a few minutes but he found all twelve. Twilight immediately flipped through them. Luckily she found what she'd been looking for in the fourth one. She began looking at the through it. After she grabbed a scroll and a quill with an ink container. She wrote down the formula before trying to figure out how to tweak it. For now it wasn't too difficult since she was working on it from a purely theoretical point of view. It would give her the chance to figure out how to work in the difference in magic a bit later and how much she'd need to strengthen it to create the connection. She began to make calculations which wound up taking her close to an hour and a half. She double checked her calculations twice, which luckily took her about half an hour. Once she was certain she'd hashed out what she needed she went back to the KiraPati. As soon as she went in she was assaulted by the smell of something unlike anything she'd ever smelled before. Something sweet and delicious unlike anything she'd ever smelled. She stood frozen for a second before the sounds of feet and hooves got her attention as the three stepped out.

"What is that smell?" asked Twilight.

"We made cream puffs." replied Ichika holding a tray out to Twilight who took one shaped like her with her magic. She tried it and was shocked, mostly by how different it tasted than anything she'd eaten.

"Aren't they just the yummiest thing you've ever had?!" asked Pinkie.

"They're amazing." said Twilight as she finished it. "I think I found the way to find the way back to your world but I need one of you to come with me so I can test it."

"In that case I'll go with you." said Himari before turning to Ichika and Pinkie. "Make sure the sponge cake is in the oven enough time."

"Don't worry. We'll make sure to get it." said Ichika with a smile. Himari smiled and walked off with Twilight.

"Let's check on the cake." said Ichika heading back to the kitchen with Pinkie bouncing behind her.

As the day had been going on none of the ponies or even the Pretty Cure had noticed two older looking guys who had been watching them as well as the other ponies in the town.

"This place has some great Kira Kiraru. What do you think Elisio?" asked the larger of the two who was buff, had a wild mess of hair, a scar going on his right eye, and wore a black jacket draped on his back as though it were a cape.

"Indeed. It also seems like this place has quite the unique effect on anyone who uses magic. We should get back to work." said the shorter but slender man who had what looked like a buttoned trench coat, shin high bottoms, slipper like shoes, and long silver hair which covered his right eye. The two moved saw the biggest concentration of Kira Kiraru at a place which looked like a giant pastry. It was already a bit past noon so there was more than an increase in the number of ponies who went in to buy. They teleported it and both held out their hands pulling the Kira Kiraru which caused the pastries to become black and white as well as causing the ponies inside, adult and child, to fall unconscious.

"This is quite the haul of Kira Kiraru." said Grave.

"Indeed, and I do believe I have an idea of what we could do to finally end our annoyances." said Elisio with a smirk.

"I'm all ears." said Grave with an equally dark smirk.

Twilight had Himari transform and stand next to the mirror she used as a portal if she needed, or wanted, to go to CHS. Cure Custard was very curious about what this would be like.

"Okay. I've got everything ready."

"This won't hurt?" asked Custard.

"I don't think it would hurt you one way or the other considering I saw your friends shrug off crashing through wood and you had no injuries when you went through my window. As far as I can tell, whatever your physical capabilities are before your transformation are enhanced after."

"That's true." said Custard still standing in front of the mirror. Twilight cast her spell which focused a beam of magic onto her. Custard could see the beam hitting her through the mirror but she didn't actually feel it. She remained like this for a minute before stopping.

"I don't get it. This should've worked." said Twilight.

"If you don't mind, I think there's something you didn't consider." said Custard getting the Alicorn's attention. "Our world has other Pretty Cure but because most of them have already defeated their foes they don't transform often unless either a stray monster appears or if a much larger threat appears. Something which would force all of us, or at least a few of us to team up."

"I see. I altered the spell but I didn't consider that they wouldn't be giving off as much energy as you." Twilight told herself. "Then I just need to make a few changes to compensate for the possibly hidden magic signatures." she said running the calculations in her head. "If I've got this right then the alterations for the necessary compensation shouldn't alter the formula too much." she said. "That should about do it. Are you ready to try again?" Custard nodded. "Alright. Let's give it another shot." Twilight tried the spell once more. This time the light hit her and then seemed to go through her and hit the mirror causing an image to appear. It was a bit fuzzy at first but started taking the form of what looked like a few islands together.

"That's Japan!" said Custard excited as red dots began appearing on various points on the islands. Twilight moved next to Custard and became surprised by the number of dots.

"There are a lot of you." she said surprised.

"We're there to protect our world and any other that needs it." said Custard.

"Would it matter where exactly the portal sends you?" asked Twilight. Custard stepped closer to the map.

"Our town is called Ichigozaka. It's right around here." she said pointing a bit higher and to the left of the center. "As I recall the closest place protected by a Pretty Cure team is Oogai Town." she added moving her finger a bit to the right, and on top of another dot.

"Alright. Now that we've found our entry point we'll need to capture those enemies of yours." said Twilight.

"Once we're through make sure to seal it so they can't find their way back." said Custard. Twilight nodded as she stopped the spell causing the map on the mirror to vanish. Custard changed back. "As a unicorn I assume you know a number of spells."

"Actually I spent most of my life studying spells."

"Then do you know of a spell that could capture someone and keep them from being able to use magic?" asked Himari.

"A few." replied Twilight. Himari thought for a moment.

"I believe we'll need to think of things differently."

"What do you mean?" asked Twilight.

Over the last few hours each of the girls had been spending time the ponies they accompanied. Akira was still diligently working, having been joined by Applejack not long after. Apple Bloom arrived and was excited to see Akira whom she recognized immediately as the two finished. Rarity had been overcome with inspiration from Yukari from both her standard and Pretty Cure forms. She'd made Yukari three different dresses, each cat themed which was something she never considered possible. Yukari observed the inspired unicorn, feeling quite a bit of enjoyment. Especially when Sweetie Belle arrived and the small filly ran up to her excited. Yukari couldn't help but giggle at how cute the filly was. Rainbow and Parfait had been moving clouds but occasionally they raised, mostly because Rainbow was curious if Parfait was as fast as her, which it turned out she almost was. In addition Parfait had come up with some possible sweets to try making when they get back. Aoi had been surprised to know that Fluttershy didn't just get along with the animals she cared for but that she could actually communicate with them. She even got to hug an actual bear, which she'd always been somewhat curious about. As a thank you for her help Fluttershy and the animals set up a bit of a tea party so they could get to know her a bit better. While tea wasn't exactly a favorite of her's, Aoi was more than happy to make more friends. Pinkie and Ichika had finished a sponge cake and right after started on cupcakes. The two had got excited when they finished decorating the Sponge cake and pretty quickly got carried away, starting with another set of pastries right after. At the same time Himari and Twilight were planning what to do. As they talked Twilight realized that Grave and Elisio would be too strong to hold in a standard spell, especially since them being in Equestria would make them stronger. Twilight then explained to Himari about the Rainbow power she and her friends had gained. They brainstormed until they finally came up with a plan. It wasn't long before Lyra showed up urgently asking to speak with Twilight. Spike greeted her and then went to tell her.

"What's wrong Spike?"

"I'm not sure. Lyra showed up saying something really bad happened." he explained. "She said she needs to talk to you."

"Alright. I'll go see what's wrong." she said turning to Himari. "For now stay here." Himari nodded. Twilight went and saw Lyra looking very concerned. "What's wrong?"

"Twilight something's seriously wrong. I was just at Sugarcube Corner and everypony there is knocked out." said Lyra urgently.

"Knocked out?" Lyra nodded. "Was there anything else that might be odd?"

"There was one thing. I went in to buy some cupcakes but all the pastries were black and white for some reason."

"Okay. Wait here a moment." she said heading back to the room where she'd left Himari and explained what Lyra had just told her. Himari's eyes widened.

"They must be getting ready to make their move."

"I was thinking the same thing." said Twilight.

"We need to get in contact with my friends."

"Spike send a message to the others that those two villains attacked Sugarcube corner. We'll go get Pinkie and Ichika." instructed Twilight. "Tell them to meet us at Sugarcube corner." she added before the Princess and the human took off, passing Lyra who took notice of Himari and then ran after them. As soon as they went inside they saw the place full of various sweets, all decorated like different animals.

"Ichika-chan!" Both Ichika and Pinkie came out of the kitchen, bringing with them trays with fresh donuts.

"What's wrong?" asked Ichika.

"Sugarcube Corner was attacked." said Lyra getting Pinkie's attention. "Everypony's knocked out and all the pastries lost their color!"

"Their Kira Kiraru must have been stolen." said Ichika.

"Then we have to do something." said Pinkie urgently.

"Something's wrong though." said Himari getting their attention. "Normally after they steal it they'll use it to create a creature of some kind shortly after but there doesn't seem to have been any kind of attack."

"That's true." said Ichika.

"For now let's head there. I had Spike send messages to my friends so they'll all meet us at Sugarcube Corner." said Twilight before turning to Lyra. "Lyra you should stay behind since we don't know just what might happen."

"Sorry Twilight but I can't pass this up. I've gotta find out what's going on."

"You're not gonna listen to me even if I make this a direct order, will you?" Lyra shook her head. "Find but be careful."

"I usually am." said Lyra with a playful smirk before the five headed off.

They arrived shortly after with most of the others waiting for them, the only exceptions being Applejack and Akira as well as Fluttershy and Aoi who arrived not that much later. The group stepped inside to see everyone out. Pinkie tried to wake them up but to no avail.

"It won't work. The Kira Kiraru was stolen from their hearts." said Ichika sadly.

"How do we get it back?" asked Rainbow.

"Just like..." began Ciel before they felt the ground shake like before but much worse.

"That's never a good sign." said Twilight before the group stepped outside, looking around. They saw what seemed like a dark cake explode in the everfree forest which then took the form of a massive Timber Wolf which looked like it was made from various sweets like a puzzle while it's head pretty much remained the same.

"Twilight-san, please remember our plan." said Himari snapping Twilight out of her shock.

"R-Right. Come on girls." she told her friends. The others nodded and followed her, Lyra included. The six looked at each other and nodded.

"Cure Á La Mode! Decoration!"

The Pretty Cure charged the monster...and then realized just how massive it was, actually being bigger than any of the monster's they'd faced so far. They felt intimidated for a bit but then they recalled how their predecessors told them about how they had before fought a creature named Fusion, which, based on the description they were given, seemed to be about the same size as their current enemy.

"And here I thought we'd have to go looking for you." said a voice. The girls looked up and saw the villains they'd followed.

"Grave. Elisio." said Whip angrily. "What did you do?"

"We decided to try a little experiment." said Elisio.

"We used the stained Kira Kiraru on one of the creatures from the forest." added Grave. "Get them!" The monster let out an extremely loud howl which forced them to cover their ears. After vines came out of various parts of its body which began attacking them. They began to dodge but found themselves completely unable to go on the offense. They tried hitting the vines with the Kira Kiraru from their Candy Rods but it seemed that for every one they stopped twenty more appeared and attacked.

"We gotta do something. We can't just keep dodging." said Gelato.

"I think I have an idea." said Whip. "Parfait, cover its eyes!"

"Understood!" she called out flying upwards. "Kirakira kirarin!" she called out twirling her weapon which made a rainbow energy ribbon. "Parfait Étoile!" she called out forming three rings above her which flew and covered the monster's eyes causing it to growl and the vines to move wildly. Whip then jumped, landing on its back.

"Kirakira Kiraru!" she called out twirling her weapon before pointing it at the back of its head. "Whip Decoration!" she called out as a frosting rosebud with four smaller ones around and four strawberries between the spaces formed and flew off, hitting it in the back of the head. The monster growled angrily and turned. Custard watched and remembered something she'd asked Twilight about earlier when they were making the plan. There was a swamp not too far from their current location. A place Twilight referred to as Froggy Bottom Bog.

"We need to lead it in that direction." said Custard pointing to the swamp land.

"What's there?" asked Akira.

"I think the place is called Froggy Bottom Bog. It's a swamp." replied Gelato.

"Right. We should be able to immobilize it there." said Custard. The five nodded to each other.

Twilight and the others were watching them carefully.

"Why can't we help?" asked Rainbow impatiently.

"In order to make sure those two don't come back..." began Twilight looking at Elisio and Grave. "...we have to trap them. In other words we need to find an opening to hit them with the spell I told you."

"Couldn't you do it yourself?" asked Rainbow.

"I could try but they'd probably break free. You saw how strong the monster they made is. How much stronger do you think they'd be?"

"Good point." said Rainbow. The two villains noticed their creation was heading into a trap. Twilight saw they were about to intervene.

"NOW!" The six activated their Rainbow Power launching six beams of energy at the two villains which they held up their hands to block.

"Not bad." said Grave with a smirk. "But it'll take a lot more than that to stop us."

"We're not alone though." said Twilight.

"Whip Decoration!"

"Custard Illusion!"

"Gelato Shake!"

"Macaron Julienne!"

"Chocolat Aromase!"

The five attacks his the two from a distance which was still enough for them to lose focus causing the beams to form and orb around them. Once the sphere dissipated there were two cards which Twilight grabbed with her magic. In the front of each of them. Grave was trying to get out by punching the front while Elisio seemed to be thinking, though his facial expression told them he was angry.

"Okay. With this it should just be a matter of them beating the Timber Wolf." said Twilight as they returned to normal.

"That might be easier said than done sugarcube." Twilight was about to ask what she meant but saw the Cures had been hit by a large blast which launched them into the forest and that the monster had freed its eyes.

"This is definitely gonna take all of us." realized Twilight.

"So can we blast it with our Rainbow Power?" asked Rainbow.

"I already told you we don't know what might happen to the ponies that were affected by this." said Twilight before turning to Fluttershy. "Take these Fluttershy." she said passing her the cards. "Get them away from here while we help the Pretty Cure. The last thing we need is them being set loose." She nodded and flew off. "Let's go." she instructed. Twilight made a sphere around Applejack, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie and took off alongside Rainbow Dash. "Rainbow, go check on the girls. In the meantime we'll keep it busy." The pegasus nodded and flew off.

"Twilight, drop us off on the ground near its feet. Pinkie and I will try to keep it off balance." said Applejack. Twilight nodded and flew down, releasing them near its feet before flying upwards once more.

"Get ready to attack." Twilight instructed Rarity.

"While I do dislike violence I believe in this situation is one where there is no other option." said Rarity just before the two started blasting with beams while Applejack focused as much of her Earth Pony strength to damage one of its legs. Pinkie on the other hand was blasting with her party cannon with something that was doing a bit more damage than normal.

Rainbow flew in the direction she'd seen the Pretty Cure hit. When she arrived she saw the six were in craters but they seemed to be out.

"Oh man. What do I do?" she asked herself.

"We're okay." said Whip causing Rainbow to turn to her. She saw the bunny Cure trying to stand. The others were doing the same but it was clear they had sustained some damage.

"Are you sure?" asked Rainbow worried for them.

"Relax. As Pretty Cure we can take a lot of damage." said Gelato holding her shoulder as all the others got up as well. They looked at the beast. Custard then turned to Rainbow.

"Tell the others they need to lead it to Froggy Bottom Bog." she instructed. "We'll be right behind you."

"Got it." she said before taking off.

"Alright. Let's go." said Whip. The others nodded. Whip took Gelato's hand and jumped before spinning in the air and launching her at the monster while Parfait flew at it holding Macaron's and Chocolat's hands while Custard ran and Whip jumped. With the ponies keeping its attention on them the Cures were able to strike its side together knocking it down which left the ponies shocked. Whip signaled to the Bog and the ponies nodded. Once the monster was up again it was enraged and ran at the Pretty Cure who were able to stay ahead of it, leaving the ponies behind. Once they got to it the monster's paws became stuck.

"Alright. Let's end this." said Gelato as they drew their newer weapons.

"Kira Kiraru Creamer!" the six called out. All of their weapons had stars matching each of their colors. Each spun them until their individual colors came up on them before holding their crystal vases under the bottom causing the stars to go into them causing them to change color. Each of them then inserted the vases on the top causing the crystal vases to take their animal form and jump out. "Crystal Animal!" they called out. Whip made a circle which showed a bunny before she was surrounded by a pink energy which scattered revealing her riding a large bunny. Gelato and Custard did the same which became a large lion and squirrel. Macaron and Chocolat followed with them riding a large dog and cat. After Parfait did the same where a large pegasus appeared. The six animals then began flying over the creature, as it struggled, each of the Cures blasting it with Kira Kiraru from their Creamers as they flew around it. "Pretty Cure Animal-Go-Round!" they called out as the Kira Kiraru took the form of a massive cake, much larger than the creature, which began to spin as the same six animals appeared in front of it before it exploded. The cake parts of it disappeared leaving behind what looked like a Timber Wolf pup. Seeing this Parfait flew in and caught it before it fell as a light began shining down and reversing all the damage which had been done to the forest. She looked at it and saw it was asleep before going back with her friends who were approached by the ponies, including Fluttershy.

"That was so awesome!!!" yelled out Pinkie. The Pretty Cure smiled.

"How in the world did you knock that beast over like that?" asked Rarity.

"It's a Pretty Cure thing." replied Gelato.

"Now that we've got Elisio and Grave we should probably head back." said Whip.

"Awe. Already?" asked Pinkie. "Couldn't you stay a little longer?"

"I guess we could leave tonight as long as Grave and Elisio can't escape." said Whip.

"You don't have to worry about that. While they're here they won't be able to escape." said Twilight. "But once you get back be careful."

"In that case why don't you all come over to the KiraPati." suggested Whip. "Pinkie and I went a little overboard so there's too many sweets."

"In that case would you mind if I brought my sister. I'm sure she'd like to get to know all of you better." said Rarity.

"Sure." said Whip.

"Not a bad idea. I'll swing by with Apple Bloom." said Applejack.

"Then we should head back to get things ready." said Whip. The Pretty Cure went back to the KiraPati while the three ponies who were elder sisters went to get them. Twilight also went to get Spike since she figured he deserved a break. Fluttershy and Pinkie went with the others to the KiraPati where the six finally changed back. It wasn't long after that Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash arrived with their sisters, or sister figures, in tow. The fillies immediately went up to the much taller girls asking questions which made it impossible to understand any of them. Instead each was given a lion ice cream. They each tried them and were left silent by how good they were.

"Well I'll be. Didn't think anything would get them quiet like that." said Applejack as the front doors opened. The group turned and saw several ponies with Lyra in front of them.

"Everypony here wanted to thank you for stopping that creature." she said. The Pretty Cure smiled.

"There's no need to thank us. We're just glad we were able to protect everyone." said Ichika. Her friends all smiled and nodded. "Would any of you like some sweets?"

Even though they hadn't set up any tables like they normally would have the ponies went in and ordered. The ponies wound up insisting on paying for whatever they got which wound up leaving the Pretty Cure surprised. The topic of Equestrian currency hadn't come up so when they saw ponies paid for things with gold coins they were shocked. Each pony who had gone to thank them bought something and left so not long after it was just the six Pretty Cure, the six former elements, and the three young Crusaders. Once the fillies were able ask questions one at a time they got to know them better. They even told the story of when they met the two teams that came before them and how they had to fight an enemy known as the Crow Tengu, but what they seemed to be more interested in were the two teams, the Magical Girl Pretty Cure and the previously mentioned Princess Pretty Cure. Twilight became interested in the fact that those four held the titles of the Princesses of the Flowers, the Seas, The Stars, and the Flames. That wasn't all. She was also extremely curious how the magic used by Miracle, Magical, and Felice worked. Then she became kinda bummed out when they told her they had no idea how it worked since they hadn't seen them after that, having only been met their other predecessors from the Princess Pretty Cure introducing them and that was after Ciel had joined their team. Twilight and her friends also told them of their own past adventures, though they became somewhat embellished due to the excitement the Crusaders felt at hearing these stories again. Both groups shared their own stories, not really keeping track of time. Eventually Twilight decided to turn to the window to see how late it might be and was surprised it had already gotten dark.

"I think it's about time." she said. The others looked at her and then out the window.

"I suppose it is." said Ichika. "Thank you for everything you did to help us."

"If anyone needs to be thanked it's you." said Twilight. "I mean you didn't just stop those two from causing too much damage. You crossed realities to come here and help us."

"I'm sure you would have done the same." said Ichika.

"Let's step outside." said Yukari. The group stepped out before Ichika turned back to the building.

"KiraPati Closed!" she called out causing a cloud of smoke. When it cleared they saw the building back to the small size it was when they first saw it, which left the fillies speechless once more. Twilight then led them back to the room with the mirror where the six transformed once more.

"Do you think we'll meet again?" Apple Bloom asked Whip.

"Maybe. Tomorrow can always change." she replied with a smile. "But we'll never forget any of you. After all every friend is a precious one." Her friends each gave a nod.

"We'll never forget you or what you did for Equestria." said Twilight. "And I'll make sure to tell the other Princesses what you did."

"Let's get going before everything gets mushy." said Gelato.

"Right." said Twilight. She began casting the spell. Once Japan appeared on the mirror she focused on the place Custard had pointed out before. "This will be as close as I can get you." she said as the mirror began to ripple. The Pretty Cure stepped in front of it, all of them letting out a sigh.

"If I was to try to find you some time in the future when do you think would be a good time?" asked Twilight getting their attention.

"If what the others told us is right then maybe a year." said Whip. "Good-bye." she said before jumping in shortly followed by her friends. The ponies were saying good bye as they left and then simply looked at the mirror.

"Then we'll see you in a year friends." said Twilight.

"Can I ask you something Twilight?" asked Applejack.

"What is it?"

"How come ya didn't send a message to Princess Celestia? It seems like you would've done that first."

"Celestia and Luna needed to oversee some negotiations in Saddle Arabia. I don't really know the details but they'll be gone for another week." replied Twilight.

"I just hope they're okay." said Fluttershy.

"It did sound like they'll have a long fight ahead of them." said Rarity.

"They'll be fine. We saw how awesome they are. You'll see." said Rainbow. They finally stopped looking at the mirror and returned to their respective homes.
