Hellooooooooooooooooooo, Fanfiction readers! I, Ashbel Longhart, am finally releasing a brand new story for you all to enjoy! Starting from the top of list, I bring you people Futari wa Pretty Cure: A New Legend! I have been waiting so, so very long to post this and now I'm finally doing it.

Now, before I go any further, I want to explain why I posted this story first over all my other future ideas. The truth is, I have a little project I like to simply call: PreCure x Kamen Rider Project. Basically, I'm going to write all the Pretty Cure series with Kamen Rider crossed over. Basically, combining two series into one and putting in Fanfiction. Knowing how long that may take, I will still undertake this mission and if something were to stop me in doing this, I want someone out there to carrying out my mission.

Currently, these are the crossovers I have planned out:

Futari wa Pretty Cure: Kuuga

Max Heart: Agito

Splash Star: Double

Yes! Pretty Cure 5: Ryuki

Yes! Pretty Cure 5 Go Go!: Faiz

Fresh Pretty Cure: Den-O

Heart Catch Pretty Cure: Kabuto

Suite Pretty Cure: Hibiki

Smile Pretty Cure: Fourze

DokiDoki Pretty Cure: Blade

Happiness Charge Pretty Cure: Decade

Look out for these crossovers in the future for I will try my best to make them great. But first, we have to tell the story Kuuga and his journey with Cure Black and Cure White as they face the forces of the Dark Zone and the brutality of the Grongi clan. But first, the disclaimer.

(Disclaimer: I do not own Kamen Rider Kuuga or Futari wa Pretty Cure. They both belong to their respective owners. I just own this story and my OC's.)

Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to Chou Henshin! Ikuze!

Ride 1: Enter Ichi Dai! Henshin!? Arienai!

(Streets of Akihabara)

As one might expect, the streets of Akihabara were bustling. Filling the streets were adults rushing off to work, girls in costume handing out flyers, men who were carrying merchandise of specific anime shows, and so on.

Among this crowd was a 14 year old teen with messy black hair, chocolate brown eyes, and wearing nothing but a grey hoodie, light brown cargo pants, and regular white sneakers. This is our main character, Ichi Dai. Currently, he was carrying a bunch of merchandise ranging from toys to DVD's, and board games.

"I knew going to the convention was worth it! The kids are gonna love these!" Dai said with a smile. If you're all wondering what he meant by that, Dai works at his uncle's orphanage, taking care of kids younger than him and the like. He had just gotten back from a convention and was carrying various merchandise for the kids of the orphanage he works at.

Dai carefully carried the merchandise and saw a nearby clock showing the time.

"Ah! Yabai! I promised Oji-san that I would be back before lunch! Gotta hurry!" Panicking, Dai picked up the pace and headed towards the nearest train station. But suddenly…

"Ah!" A scream caught his attention and he saw a man older than him just steal a woman's purse. "Thief! Somebody stop him!" But the people in the surrounding area didn't bother to stop the man as they did not want to get involved. That's a normal response from everyday people.

But Ichi Dai was no ordinary man.

"Sigh…yare, yare…" Dai sighed as he slowly placed his stuff down carefully and turned towards the thief who was heading towards his direction.

"Get out of my way kid!" The thief shouted a warning to Dai, but he didn't listen. When he saw him not moving, he attempted to run pass him, but instead, he found himself up in the air and slammed down on the ground, his face hitting the floor as his arms were restrained.

"You shouldn't steal other people's belongings, mister." Dai said as he restrained both the man's arms as police finally arrived.

"We'll take it from here kid." The policeman said as Dai let go of the man as the policemen grabbed and took away the thief. Dai then picked up the fallen purse and gave it back to the woman.

"Here you go."

"Oh thank, young man." The woman thanked him, taking back the purse while bowing in appreciation. "You're strong for someone so young."

Dai just smiled and gave the lady a thumbs up. "I work out a lot."

(Hours Later)

"Oji-san! I'm back!" Dai called out as he entered the orphanage.

"Dai-neesan!" All of a suddenly, kids ranging from 4 to 6 appeared and started to crowd around Dai.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Calm down everyone!' You're gonna make me drop my stuff!" Dai exclaimed as he balanced the stuff in his hands.

"Dai, welcome back." Looking up, Dai saw his uncle walk in from the living room.

Dai's uncle, Ichi Gou, was a man in his late 50's. Like Dai, he too had messy black hair, but his eyes were a caramel color. Over his eyes, he wore a pair of reading glasses, showing that he had been reading to the kids a moment ago.

"Oji-san, sorry if I'm a little late."

Gou waved Dai's apology. "Don't worry about it. I'm pretty sure the kids are more interested in what you brought them all." True to his words, the kids kept asking what the young teen got them.

"Okay, okay, hold on. Let me just set this all down first." Once everyone gave him some room, Dai went to a table and set everything down before going through the bag and handing out toys and board games to the kids.

"And for you, Oji-san." Dai then gave his uncle a DVD. "You said you wanted to show this to the kids one day and I just happen to see it in a store when I was heading to the convention.

"Wow, this is great." Gou said before he sent a dark look at Dai. "So, how much did all of this cost you?"

Dai flinched and sweated nervously, looking away while scratching his head. "Uh…maybe around 35000 yen."

"Really~? Gou then suddenly got real close to his nephew. "If I remember correctly, you don't have that kind of money."

"I…may have borrowed your credit card."

"DAI!" And before Dai could run, Gou grabbed him and started to strangle him. "How many times have I told you to not use my credit card!? That's for emergencies only!"

"Gomenasai!"

All the kids minded their own business, pretending to ignore the fact that Dai was turning a bit blue from his uncle's hold until he finally let him go.

"Well, I can't stay mad at you all day. After all, today's a special day." Gou said, confusing Dai as Gou turned to the kids and nodded. Getting his message, all the kids ran off and later came back with a wrapped up box, a present.

Gou grabbed the box and handed it to Dai, saying something Dai was not expecting.

"Otanjōbiomedetōgozaimasu(Happy Birthday), Dai." Gou said as he handed his nephew the present. "You left in such a hurry that you didn't give me a chance to say that. Congrats on turning 14 today."

"Oji-san…" Dai said before he looked down at his present and looked at his uncle.

"Go ahead, open it." Getting the okay sign, Dai tore away the paper like a kid on Christmas. He then gasped at what he saw.

"Kamen Rider Kuuga's DX Arcle Henshin Belt!?" One could have sworn that there were stars in Dai's eyes. "Oji-san, arigato!"

"Don't mention it. You should really be thanking the kids. They all pinched in getting enough money to get you that belt."

Dai turned to the kids and ran up to them, scooping up two into a hug as the kids started to crowd him again.

"Minna, arigato!"

"Otanjōbiomedetōgozaimasu, Dai-oniichan!" All the kids said at the same time.

(In another space and time)

If a person could stop and stare, the scene before them would have frozen them in awe. Stars littered the area around them, streams of different color traveled all around, but the thing that would have caught anyone's attention right off the bat would be sight of 16 different Earths; 16 different worlds.

In the center of all of this sat one old man in a chair, head lowered down as his hand grasped a cane. Suddenly, one of the worlds seemed to glow, catching the old man's attention. Looking up, he gazed at the world that was glowing for some reason.

"…Finally." The old man spoke for the first time. "I've found someone who can inherit his title." The old man then took out something from his pocket and revealed it to be a card depicting a bug-themed warrior with red eyes.

"Kuuga…"

(Back with Dai)

After hours of laughs and games and cake, Dai sat on his bed alone on the dark, his only source of light being a little lamp. He stared out the window, counting stars, something he would tend to do after experiencing a very good day.

After counting his hundredth star, he walked away from the window and walked to the center of his room.

"Aright, time to begin." Dai said as he took a deep breath before he entered a stance. Taking in another breath in, he closed his eyes and started to move.

A right punch followed by a left, soon followed by a round house kick, stopping before he kicked his lamp. Pulling away, he entered a different stance and started to blitz around the room, his arms moving in precise moves before he came a stop again. He then brought his fist up to his face and started to shadow box. A right jab followed by a left, followed by another right before he sent his left to his imaginary opponent's gut, soon delivering an uppercut that finished him off. Dai then finally breathed out and opened his eyes, wiping away a bit of sweat that formed.

"Alright, that felt good." Dai said, smiling in satisfaction before he noticed that he had yet to take his new present out of its box. As you might have guessed people, Dai here is a fan of Kamen Rider, his current favorite being Kamen Rider Kuuga, the Rider who protected smiles.

Grabbing the box, Dai muttered, "Just you wait. I too will achieve two thousand skills of my own," before he began to work his way in getting the belt out. Once it was, Dai stood in front of his mirror and looked at himself with the belt on.

"Hmm…Well, I guess it couldn't hurt to do it once." Dai said to himself as he turned the belt on and started to do the hand motions for the transformation of Kuuga.

"Henshin!" Dai said as he spread his arms as the belt let out a sound that told him that the transformation was complete. Of course, being a toy and not the real, fictional thing, he didn't transform, but it was still fun to do.

"Well, time for bed." Dai said…until…

"Ichi…Dai…"

Dai jumped in surprise and got into a stance, looking left and right.

"Who's there?"

"Ichi…Dai…"

Dai then turned to his mirror which was the source of where the voice was coming from. He looked at his reflection until suddenly; his entire figure was replaced with a red armored, masked warrior.

"What the!?"

"Ichi Dai…Become Kuuga!"

Suddenly, a card appeared from his mirror and struck his belt. Surprised, Dai didn't have enough time to react when a hand from his mirror popped out, grabbed him, and dragged him in.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Dai's screams of fright were soon ones of pain as he felt something burning into his abdomen.

"Ichi Dai…Become the legend that will start things. Become the legend that the world needs."

"Who…Who are you…?" With the last of his strength, Dai asked that last question before darkness filled his vision, but not before he heard what the voice said next.

"I'm just a passing through old man, remember that."

(Insert STRIKE BACK by BACK-ON)

(Instrumental) The song starts as the camera rises up to show the legs of Kuuga before we get a sudden screen shot of Cure Black and Cure White before going back to Kuuga. Just as the camera is at the Arcle, we get a sudden shot of Mepple and Mipple before the camera gets to his chest. We then get another sudden shot of The PreCure cards surrounding Gouram before we go back to Kuuga whos' back was facing the camera. He then suddenly turns around and punches the screen, cracking it as the title appears.

(Kidou sura kaerarenai kurai no kakuritsu da to shite mo) We now see Nagisa playing lacrosse with her team, catching a ball as Mepple is seen sleeping from Nagisa's bag.

(IPAASENTO demo areba mochiron teikou desho?) We then see Honoka with the members of the science club, doing an experiment that ended in an explosion as Mipple just giggles at the scene.

(Shosen, "unmei" to nagetsukerareta tte, No I won't!) We go to the city where police are examining a dead body. Ryō looks at the body before he walks away and gets out his phone, calling Dai.

(Hikkuri kaeshite, Because datte kimi to mirai wo miretara saikou janai?) Dai, riding on the TryChaser 2000, gets the call from his radio and speeds up, passing both Nagisa and Honoka as he races to meet up with Ryō.

(Bring it on! 'Cuz I'm just gonna grow up in the battle HEY! buchinuku donten!) Suddenly, the sky turns dark before the Dark King and his subordinates appears as well as an army of Zakenna appeared. Appearing with him was a shadow figure of N-Daguva-Zeba along with an army of Grongi.

(Still burning my fire ten wo kirsaku raimei I gotta kakikesu Nightmare tada mirai ga mitakute!) Nagisa and Honoka step in fear before Dai suddenly appeared behind them and gave them his signature smile and a thumbs up.

(Kako, mirai, soshite ikiteru ima, I ain't scared of my past and now for takusareta asu) Seeing his smile seemed to steel the girl's resolve as they took out the Queen PreCure and Dai summoned the Arcle belt.

(Screaming out for my pride!) A light then suddenly appears and appearing from it was Kamen Rider Kuuga along with Cure Black and Cure White, ready for battle.

(Namida mitakunai kara, sakebi tsudzukeru yo! Zutto...) Cure Black and Cure White engage a battle with some Zakenna before taking on Pisard, IIkubo, Poisony, Kiriya, and Gekidrago.

(I'm never falling down! oi kaze wo se ni fukitobasu Destiny!) Both sides trade blows for a bit before both girls held hands and fired their signature Marble Screw.

(Kono senaka ni aru, egao mamoritai kara! Zutto...) We see Kuuga kicking way a few Grongi, bashes them with the Dragon Rod while in his Dragon form, shoots a flying Grongi with his Pegasus Bowgun in his Pegasus form, and then slashes a few more Grongi with his Titan Sword in his Titan form.

(I gotta blast off your pain for you and me! kanashimi nante Rest in peace!) Dai and the girls regroup as they face both the Dark King and N-Daguva-Zeba. Dai charges up a Mighty Kick before he jumps.

(Nando demo...) The girl then threw another Marble Screw as Dai kicks towards the two beings of darkness with the Marble Screw following close behind him before a light overtakes everything and we see a quick look at the blue sky before the song ends.

(One Year Later)

The sun rose from over the horizon, spreading a blinding glow that woke the creatures of nature up as well as people from their homes. This was no different other people living in an apartment complex. Of course using blinds, they blocked out the sun's rays from reaching into their room, allowing them more sleep. However, the sun had an ally in the form of one thing.

An alarm clock.

*RING-RING-RING!*

"Ugh…" The groaning of a young female meant that the alarm clock was doing its job well. Groaning and turning, the person soon gave up, got up, and stopped the alarm clock.

The person whom the alarm clock woke up was a 14 year old girl with short, ginger hair that was sticking up from places because of bed hair and has light brown eyes.

"Nagisa, are you awake yet?" The voice of what is probably the mother called out from downstairs. "Hurry up and get ready for school."

"Hai~!" The now named Nagisa said as she slowly got out of bed and looked at herself through the mirror, wincing at the sight of her bed hair. After a quick clean up and getting out of pajamas, Nagisa now wore her hair down and wore a what looked to be a school uniform consisting of a white button-up with a red blazer over it, a striped blue bow-tie around her neck, and a teal colored skirt followed with black knee length socks.

Satisfied with how she looked, Nagisa walked out of her room and met up with the rest of her family in the dining room just as her mom was laying down breakfast on the table.

"Nagisa, aren't you forgetting something?" Nagisa's mother, Rie, said. Misumi Rie was a beautiful woman who had brown hair and eyes.

Nagisa had a look of confusion and thought to herself. What could she have forgotten? Then, something clicked in her head and slammed a fist down on her palm before slapping herself.

"Hold on, I'll be right back." Nagisa said as she ran back to her room and went out to her balcony. "Dai~! Breakfast is ready!"

"Coming!" Came the voice of a male next door to her. Seconds later, none other than Ichi Dai, now 15 years old appeared from the next door balcony, dressed in a male version of the uniform Nagisa was wearing. Instead of a bow tie, he wore a neck tie and wore gray trousers instead of a skirt for obvious reasons.

With bag in hand, Dai did what no man in their right minds would have done in the first place. He jumped off the balcony towards the one Nagisa was at. Now keep in mind that the two balconies weren't exactly close to each other, but Dai was able to jump high enough and with enough power to reach the other balcony, grabbing onto the edge before he climb up and landed back on ground. Now standing up, we can see that he was taller than Nagisa as her head just reached the bottom of his ears.

"I said it before and I'll say it again. Why can't you just come through the front door like a normal person?" Nagisa asked, her face calm to show that she was used to Dai jumping over to her balcony.

"Now where would the fun be in that?" Dai said with a happy-go-lucky smile as he and Nagisa walked to the kitchen. "Ohayō, Mr. and Mrs. Misumi, Ryota."

"Ohayō, Dai-kun." Misumi Takeshi, Nagisa's father said to the boy. Takeshi was a big man with brown eyes and hair and was fairly handsome.

"Ohayō, Dai-niisan." Ryota, Nagisa's younger brother, greeted. Ryota, like most of the family, had brown eyes and hair.

"Wow~! Today's breakfast looks good as always, Mrs. Misumi." Dai commented as he and Nagisa took a seat.

"Why thank you, Dai-kun." Rie smiled as she took off her apron and joined the rest of them. "But it's nothing compared to your cooking."

"True, but it's still good none the less." Dai said as he Nagisa a bowl of rice before getting one for himself.

Takeshi checked his watch for the time and said, "Well, I better get going."

"Have a nice day, honey." Rie said to her husband as she and Takeshi kissed before the man left for work. She then turned to Dai and Nagisa and said, "Now, you two better hurry up. You don't want to be late, do you?"

"It's already that time!?" Nagisa looked at the clock in surprise before she started to finish her breakfast at a fast pace and Dai soon followed when he saw the time. In record time, they both finished at the same time, grabbed their bags, and raced for the door, putting on their shoes before they left. "We're off!"

"Thanks for breakfast!" Dai said before he and Nagisa took off running.

(Verone Academy)

"Ichi-san!" Looking to his left, he saw one of his teammates wave at him. Seeing that he was open, Dai quickly passed the ball to him and he was off. But now he was the target of attention for the opposing team. Dai didn't worry as he focused on running to a part of the field that would be good. Looking, he saw his teammate pass the ball to another guy and he took off running with two guys hot on his trail.

"I'm open!" Dai shouted, waving his arm. He managed to get his attention and passed the ball to Dai who with all of his power kicked the ball the second he got it into the goal.

A whistle blew and both teams stopped.

"Match set! Team 1 wins!" The referee called out.

Dai and his team all cheered and gave each other high fives.

"Nice kick, Dai." Dai turned and faced one of his many friends here at Verone Academy, Fujimura Shougo.

Shougo was a handsome teen, about the same height as Dai if not a little more. He has shoulder length brown hair and eyes to match it.

"I couldn't have done without you and the others." Dai said with a smirk and a thumbs up. Shougo laughed and gave Dai a thumbs up of his own, a habit he picked up from Dai himself.

"Fujimura, Ichi!" Said men turned to their coach who was waving them over here. Running up to him, the coach said, "You two take a break; let the others play in your stead."

"You got it coach." Dai said as he and Shougo walked towards the benched and sat down, each getting out a bottle of water of their own.

"Hey," Dai turned to his friend who took a sip of his water before speaking. "Did you see last night's shooting stars?"

"Eh?"

"I saw it too!" Turning, both Dai and Shougo turned to another friend of theirs, Kimata.

Kimata was a tall man with a normal skin tone, brown eyes, and dark, teal colored hair.

"I saw them when I was studying for today's test. It was awesome!" Kimata said.

"Really?" Dai asked. "I guess I must have had my blinds closed because I didn't see anything last night."

"There have been a lot of them recently." Shougo said. "I wonder if it means something…"

"Ah, you're thinking about it too hard, Fujipi!" Kimata said, slapping his friend's back. "You talk as if shooting stars are bad omens or something."

"That's not true." Dai said, getting the two's attention. "Honoka-chan said that shooting stars are actually small meteors that drift in outer space and get attracted by the earth's gravity. As they get closer, they start to heat up and glow leaving trails of light in the sky. People from the past have made wishes on these meteors and I think that's better than thinking that they're bad omens."

"Did she really say that?" Shougo asked with an amused smirk. "That sounds like her alright."

"Once again, she shows why she's called the Queen of Knowledge." Kimata said as he had a dazed look in his eyes.

Dai and Shougo just chuckled at their friend.

"Still, I can't hel but worry." Shougo said.

"Why is that?" Dai asked.

"Well, there was an incident back in Nagano." Shougo said as Kimata decided to listen too. "Apparently, some archaeologists found some old ruins. An accident occurred and the entire team was found dead. Not only that, but there have been a string of murders going on for awhile after that."

"Geez, talk about scary." Kimata said, creeped out.

"Have the police been investigating?" Dai asked as what Shougo told him sounded strangely familiar to him for some reason. He couldn't put his finger on it.

"Investigations have been going on since then, but the police have come up with nothing." Shougo said. "I guess we should just be glad that this is only happening in Nagano and not here."

"That's a pretty cold thing to say, Fujipi." Kimata said.

"Oi!" The voice of their coach got the three's attention. "Kimata, Fujimura, you're up!"

"Coming coach!" Kimata said as he and Fujimura left Dai to his lonesome. He was fine with this as he began to think to himself.

'What Shougo said sounds just like…No, it can't be. That's impossible.' Dai shook his head to get rid of the crazy idea forming in his head and took another sip from his water bottle.

(With Nagisa)

"Misumi! Misumi Nagisa!" The teacher called out to said student who was currently sleeping.

"Nagisa!" Nagisa's friend, Rina, poked her with her pencil to wake her. It worked as Nagisa jolted up awake.

"Uh, hai!?"

"Can you solve this problem?" The teacher said, pointing to the problem he wrote on the board.

"Umm…" Just one look at the problem and Nagisa was already in deep trouble. 'Oh man, this sucks! I knew I should've studied with Dai last night!'

"Come on, Misumi. You're already a second year, you should be able to solve this."

'Easy for you to say…' But then…

"Sensei," Rising from her seat, Nagisa turned and saw the girl she had just met today, Yukishiro Honoka aka the 'Chishiki no joō(Queen of Knowledge).' Like Nagisa, Honoka was 14 years old and has long, dark blue hair and eyes. She wears her hair down and clips her bangs to the side. "That problem is unsolvable."

"What is it, Yukishiro?" The teacher asked. "Are you saying that this problem is too hard for Misumi?"

"Ouch." Nagisa said, hurt, but she can't deny that the teacher was right.

"No, I mean that the equation solves to a strange result like '0=26'."

"What?" The teacher said, surprised.

"Shouldn't you have written '19+x' as '19-x'? In that case, the solution would be 'x=13'."

The teacher checked the board and the book and smiled awkwardly. "Oh, my mistake. I'll be more careful in the future."

"No problem." Honoka said as she sat back down.

To say Nagisa was amazed would have been an understatement then.

(Hours Later, Train Station)

"Nagisa-chan!" Dai called out to his friend/neighbor who was talking with her friends, Shiho, a red headed girl a bit shorter than Nagisa, and Rina, a girl taller than Nagisa, but shorter than him. "Sorry I kept you girls waiting."

"No, we weren't waiting long." Nagisa said.

"Hey, Dai-kun." Rina and Shiho greeted.

"Hey, Rina-san, Shiho-chan." Dai greeted back. "What were you girls talking about?"

"We were just discussing about who should be the class rep when I had this cool idea!" Shiho said.

"What is it?" Dai asked as their train finally arrived.

"I was thinking we should nominate both Nagisa and Yukishiro-san."

"Eh?" Nagisa said as this was the first time she was hearing this.

"That's a great idea!" Rina said. "Yukishiro-san is popular with the boys, and Nagisa is popular with the girls so the combination would be perfect!"

"Yeah, isn't it?" Shiho asked.

"No way! I'm not that kind of person!" Nagisa said.

"Eh? I thought it was a good idea." Rina said.

"You guys know Honoka-chan?" Dai asked the three.

"Yeah, she's in our class." Shiho said.

"Wait, you know her?" Nagisa asked as today was the first time she's ever talked to that 'Queen of Knowledge.'

"Yeah, we're friends." Dai said like it was nothing. "I even have her phone number."

"Eh? Really?" Shiho asked and Dai nodded.

"Wow. A lot of boys would kill to have her number." Rina said.

"They would?" Dai asked, tilting his head in confusion.

Removing herself from the conversation, Nagisa stared out the window, but as she did, she caught a quick look at Dai's friend, Shougo, and time seemed to suddenly stop for her.

"Nagisa-chan?" Dai noticed his friend's dazed look and snapped his fingers in front of her, snapping her out of her stupor.

"Huh? What?"

"You okay? You looked kind of out of it." Dai asked.

"I'm fine, nothing to worry about." Nagisa said, trying to calm the beating of her heart.

"If you say so." Dai said.

(Apartment Building)

"We're back!" Nagisa called out as she and Dai entered her family's apartment room. The reason why Dai was coming into her family's room was because he accidentally left his apartment key in his room so he has to enter from the balcony, which he luckily left open.

"Welcome back!" Rie said from the kitchen as they entered Nagisa's room.

The minute they were in, Nagisa dumped the love letters she got today onto her desk, placed her bag on her chair, set her lacrosse stick against her desk and plopped down on her bed.

"Are these love letters?" Dai asked as he picked up the letter and was surprised when he saw that they were from girls.

"Yeah, but being popular with girls is meaningless…" Nagisa said. "Sometimes I wish boys would admire me instead."

"Hey, cheer up. I'm sure there are some boys who admire you." Dai said, trying to cheer up Nagisa. A light they appeared from the corner of his eyes and his eyes widen when he turned to see what it was. "Nagisa-chan! You have to see this!"

"Huh?" Nagisa got up and turned to see what Dai was looking at. Her eyes widen like Dai at what she saw and they both hurried out to the balcony to see shooting stars raining down from the sky.

"Sugoi…" Dai muttered as he and Nagisa stared at the spectacle.

"Shooting…stars…" Nagisa muttered. "…Ah! We have to wish for something!"

"Ah! You're right!" Dai said as they both clasped their hands together in prayer and started making wishes.

"Uh, I wish for a great boyfriend, and slim legs, and to be able to buy lots of fancy clothes, and eat lots of chocolate cake!" These were Nagisa's wishes.

For Dai, he only had one wish. "I wish to achieve 2000 skills this year!" Currently, he managed to achieve 999 skills so far, almost half way there to his goal and if wishing upon a star could help him, then so be it.

"Hm?" Dai then noticed something. It was a ball of light and it was heading their way. "What the!?"

"What is it?" Nagisa asked, looking to see what was making Dai panic and soon saw the light. "No way!"

Acting fast, they both ducked as the light passed over them. Looking back, they saw that instead of destruction to her entire room, the ball of light bounced around like a real ball and to say that Nagisa was freaking out would have been an understatement. She was so freaked out that she didn't react in time as the ball struck her face.

"Ouch." Dai winced. That looked like it hurt a bit. He then looked back and saw the ball of light disperse into cards along with what looked to be some sort of phone.

(With Honoka)

To Honoka, today was like any other day. She found some love letters in her lockers, help correct a problem her teacher got wrong, and experiment with some elements with the other members of the science club. Although, she would be a little happier if her experiment didn't always explode.

"Hm?" Honoka stopped at her house' front door when she heard the sound of her dog barking.

"Chuutaro?" Confused at what could have made her dog so excited, Honoka quickly entered the grounds of her house , instantly being greeted by the family pet, Chuutaro, a golden retriever of age 6-10. Honoka smiled as Chuutaro licked her, asking, "Chuutaro, what's wrong?"

Chuutaro then stopped licking her and ran off.

"Chuutaro, what is it?" Honoka asked, but the dog was already off. Left with no other choice, she followed her dog who was barking at the shed.

"Honoka, have you returned?" The voice of Honoka's grandma, Yukishiro Sanae, called out from inside the house.

"Ah, tadaima(I'm home), Obāchama(Grandma)!" Honoka said.

"Is there something wrong with Chuutaro?" Sanae asked.

"No, it's probably alright." Honoka insisted before she went to check what was making Chuutaro all excited.

"Is there something in there?" Honoka wondered. She didn't go into the shed that much. In fact, she can barely remember the last time she went into the shed. Curious, Honoka went and opened the shed, Chuutaro running immediately as Honoka stepped inside, waving off some cobwebs as she looked around.

There was nothing, but cobwebs and boxes all over except for the one thing that stuck out like a sore thumb in here. It was her late grandpa's motorcycle with a sheet draped over it to keep dust from getting all over it. If it was some other time, Honoka would have removed the sheet to get a better look, but something else caught her attention.

It was a small box tied up and for some reason, it was glowing.

"What is this?" Honoka wondered as she walked up to it. Untying it, she was greeted with the sight of a similar phone device that appeared in Nagisa's room, except that this one was blue as a set of cards was with it neatly. "I wonder what this is."

(Back with Nagisa and Dai)

"What in the world?" Nagisa said, completely confused. Slowly, she and Dai got up and creeped around the phone, cautious as Nagisa reached for her lacrosse stick and poked it a few times. After a few pokes, nothing happened.

"Maybe it's just a regular phone?" Dai guessed as he approached the thing, but then suddenly, the phone started to glow brightly, surprising both of them. "Okay, never mind!"

The phone-like device then shot up into the air and opened itself, showing off the face of some…thing.

"Mepo!" Said the…thing. Said thing was colored yellow-lemon. Its eyes were navy blue with light blue highlights between his eyes. On top of its head was an incorrectly male symbol with a heart thematic as well as bear-like ears.

"It talked." Dai said as the creature in the phone floated down.

"Who are you two-mepo?"

"He spoke in Japanese." Nagisa said.

"A boy and a girl-mepo?" The creature said as he got a little closer.

Freaking out, Nagisa waved her stick around. "Don't come any closer!"

"I'm in your care-mepo!" The creature, mostly to Nagisa than to Dai.

In the dining room, Rie was preparing dinner as Ryota was reading one of the mangas Dai made, yes, made. As in he actually drew and illustrated a manga.

"Ryota, can you go check up on those two? It seems a bit noisy upstairs."

"Eh? Why can't you just ignore them?" Ryota said, wanting to read his manga.

"Just hurry up and go!"

"Fine…" Reluctantly, Ryota got up and headed upstairs to his sister's room. "Hey, Onee-chan, Dai-niisan, Okaa-san is asking what's going on?" Before he could reach for the door handle, it opened and Ryota jumped back when Nagisa stuck her head out with an expression that she was still freaked out. Behind her, Dai was messing with the little creature, poking its face and whatnot, much to the creature's displeasure.

"Listen, Ryota, what I'm about to show you isn't a dream, it's real. Calm down and take a look."

"It looks to me that you're the one who needs to calm down." Ryota said. "So, what is it?"

"There's something strange in my room! See!" She moved to show Ryota the phone-like device as said device was still being messed with Dai.

"Hey! No fair! When did you get a cell phone?" Ryota said.

"Cell phone? It's not a cell phone, there's something strange inside." Nagisa insisted as Ryota took the thing from Dai's hand. "Stop! You might get bitten!"

Ryota brought the device to his ear, his eyes missing the creature's head. "I can't hear anything. What's with this?" He then threw the device to Nagisa who caught it.

"Strange, it spoke before…"

"You must be day dreaming. It is almost evening." Ryota said in a tone that annoyed Nagisa as he went to leave the room.

"Why you little…" Annoyed, Nagisa quickly stuck her foot out and Ryota tripped over it, landing on his face. "Ryota, you should be more careful."

Like the little kid he is, Ryota got up and started crying. "Okaa-san! Nagisa's picking on me again!"

"Don't tattle!" Nagisa said.

"Nagisa, that wasn't very nice." Dai said before he kneeled down to the boy and placed a hand on his head. "Now Ryota, stop crying. Remember what I said when we became friends?"

"You said…guy who smile though trouble…are cool…" Ryota said between sobs.

"That's right. You shouldn't cry over something like this. Now come on, let me see a smile." Dai said, giving him his own smile. Ryota wiped away his tears and gave the older male a small smile. "There we go. Now run along to your mom. I need to talk to Nagisa about something."

Ryota nodded and ran back downstairs. Once gone, Dai closed the door and turned to see the cards stop glowing to show what they looked like.

"As always, you have a way with kids." Nagisa said until she noticed the cards. Curious, she threw the phone to her bed and began to pick the cards up with Dai helping her. "What are these cards?"

"I don't know, but they sure are strange." Dai commented, looking at a card that depicted some sort of chef.

As the two were picking up the cards, the phone stared to move and this did not escape Nagisa's eyes.

"Ah, now it's walking…" Nagisa said, starting to look mentally tired.

Seeing the thing struggle, Dai went and picked up, flipping it open as the creature seemed tired.

"It sure is hard to move by myself-mepo." The creature said. "Hey, you two, take me to Mipple, the Princess of Hope-mepo."

"Huh? What are you talking about? No way." Nagisa asked.

"Please-mepo!" The creature pleaded, almost on the verge of crying. "I don't have anyone else to turn to-mepo!"

Dai seemed to react the minute he saw how much the creature needed help. "We'll help!"

"Huh!?" Nagisa gave her friend a look of disbelief.

(Outside)

"Ugh, I was afraid of this." Nagisa said as she carried the phone device with her lacrosse stick as Dai walked side by side with her.

"Nagisa, he needed help and he can't exactly do anything the way he is." Dai said.

"I know, but seriously. You're too sensitive to other people's problems." Nagisa said. "You might get taken advantage of if you keep this up."

"And that's why I have you to look out for me." Dai said with a happy-go-lucky smile.

"Hey," The creature called from the lacrosse stick he was in, bouncing every so often. "How come I'm in a net?"

"Don't complain." Nagisa said as she continued walking.

"Make a right here-mepo." The creature instructed.

"Hai, hai…" Nagisa said as she and Dai turned the corner.

"No wait, its left-mepo!" The creature said suddenly, throwing Nagisa off balance. "No, straight ahead-mepo."

"Will you cut it out with the 'Mepo, Mepo' stuff already? We can't go straight from here." Nagisa said as a wall blocked their way.

"It'll be alright, just go straight-mepo."

"No we can't." Nagisa said, but flinched when she saw the face the little guy made back in her room.

"Please-mepo!"

"Ikuze, Nagisa! I'll give you a boost!" Dai said, bending down once he heard the little thing pleading again. Nagisa was right, he is sensitive to other people's problems.

"Oh boy…" Nagisa said as stuffed the stick in her blazer before getting on top of Dai and easily got over the wall. Dai quickly followed using his 22th skill: Parkouring.

"So, who are you anyway?" Nagisa asked, bowing to the owner of the house she was at as Dai bowed too before they quickly left.

"I am the chosen hero from the Garden of Light, Mepple-mepo!" The now named Mepple said.

"Garden of Light? Hero? You?" Nagisa asked as Dai gave her another boost over the wall, but landed in some garbage, much to her displeasure. Getting up, she asked, "Where to now?"

"Just keep going straight-mepo." Mepple said as Dai soon joined them as they walked through the kitchen of a restaurant, much to Nagisa's displeasure again as she had left without eating dinner. "You need to defend the Garden of Light from the Dark Zone-mepo."

However, Nagisa wasn't listen as her stomach growled.

"I'm so hungry!"

"Listen to me when I'm talking-mepo!"

"I'll cook us something later. For now, let's go." Dai said, bowing to the chefs in apology as they quickly left the kitchen and towards an amusement park that was about to close. Said amusement park was dubbed Angel Land.

"Hurry-mepo!"

"It looks like its closing." Dai said.

"But I'm sure it's this way-mepo." Mepple insisted as the two entered the park. "This is weird-mepo."

"You mean besides the fact that we're entering an amusement that's about to close?" Dai asked the so-called hero.

"I can feel something besides Mipple-mepo."

"What do you mean 'something?'" Nagisa asked.

"This is the end of the line for you two." An unknown voice said before a man dropped down from out of nowhere.

The man was obviously older than them. He wore a red bodysuit with a cloak over his shoulder. His face and white hair would make one think he had just came from a kabuki play.

"Who are you?" Dai asked, getting in front of Nagisa protectively. Something about this man didn't sit right with him, and Nagisa felt the same way.

"I am Pisard." The now named Pisard introduced himself. "I've been looking for you two. Or rather, I've been looking for him." Pisard then pointed at Mepple.

"Run away-mepo!"

"You don't have to tell us twice!" Nagisa said as she and Dai attempted to run, but suddenly, Pisard appeared right in front of them. "What the!?"

"Don't give me any trouble you two." Pisard said as he went to grab Mepple from Nagisa, but before he could, Nagisa and Dai slipped by and ran away from him. Unfortunately, Nagisa tripped and sent Mepple flying from her lacrosse stick.

"Ah! I'm getting dizzy-mepo!"

"Oh no!" Dai jumped to catch Mepple, but Pisard suddenly appeared, backhanded him, and caught the fairy.

"Dai-kun!" Nagisa went to her friend when he crashed to the ground.

"Where are the stones?" Pisard asked the fairy as Nagisa helped Dai up.

Just as Dai and Nagisa were about to act, a voice called out.

"Misumi-san! Ichi-kun!" Turning, both Nagisa and Dai saw none other than Yukishiro Honoka making their way to them.

"Yukishio-san/Honoka-chan?" Both Nagisa and Dai said in surprise at the appearance of the girl.

"Mepple!" The phone in Honoka's hand spoke in a high pitched tone. Said phone also had the head of a creature similar to Mepple except it was colored pale/light pink. From the voice, we can see that the being was a female. She had crimson colored eyes as her highlights were magenta. On top of her head was a female symbol and dog like ears.

"Mipple!" Mepple cried out.

"What's going on anyway, Yukishiro-san?" Nagisa asked.

"She brought me here." Honoka said, gesturing to the fairy in her hand.

"You too, Honoka-chan?" Dai asked, looking at the phone in Honoka's hand.

"Give Mepple back-mipo!" Mipple said.

Pisard laughed at the sight of the second fairy. "Well, well, if it isn't the other half? This saves me the trouble of looking for you. Now hand her over."

"No, Honoka! You mustn't turn me over to him-mipo!" Mipple pleaded.

"Fat chance that's happening!" Dai said as he sprung into action. Seeing him coming, Pisard went to backhand him again, but Dai ducked, got on his hands, and pushed off as his feet kicked Pisard's hand, the one that was holding Mepple as the fairy was sent flying again.

"I'm getting dizzy again-mepo!"

"I've got him!" Nagisa said as she caught the fairy with her lacrosse stick and tossed him into her other hand. Once that was done, Dai quickly jumped away from Pisard and stood side by side with Nagisa and Honoka.

"Thank you-mepo." Mepple thanked the two.

"Thank us later. What do we do now?" Dai asked as he raised his hands in preparations for a fight.

"That's it! No more games!" Pisard shouted as he raised his hands and suddenly, everything from the bench, to a trash and recycling bin, to a road blocker was somehow picked up telepathically.

"No way! Arienai(Unbelievable)!" Nagisa said at the spectacle in front of her.

"Take this!" Pisard then sent the objects at the three.

"Duck!" Dai shouted as the three separated and did their best to avoid the thrown objects at them.

"I can't handle this!" Nagisa cried out as she ran and dodged any objects thrown at her.

"Help me!" Honoka cried out as she covered her head with her hands and closed her eyes as objects crashed near here her.

"Dammit!" Dai was faring better than the girls as he expertly dodged all the thrown objects at him. When you've traveled for as long as he has, something like this was nothing. That didn't stop him for worrying about the girls.

"Girls! You two have to transform-mepo!" Mepple cried out throughout the chaos.

"Transform?" Honoka said in confusion.

'What is this, Kamen Rider?' Dai thought. This wasn't Kamen Rider, although a Rider would certainly be helpful in a situation like this.

"That's not funny! This is no time for jokes!" Nagisa said.

"I'm not! Take out the PreCure cards-mepo!" Mepple said.

"Cards?" Nagisa said in confusion until she remembered the cards that appeared along with Mepple and took them out from her blazer pocket, just ducking in time to avoid a trash bin. "You mean these?"

"But there are several of them..." Honoka said, taking out a set of cards for herself.

"Fine the Queen card-mipo!" Mipple said.

"I don't know what's going on, but can you hurry it up!?" Dai shouted as he kicked away a traffic cone.

"Found it!" Nagisa said as she held the Queen card in her hand.

"Now what do we do?" Honoka asked.

"Swipe the card here-mepo!" Mepple instructed, gesturing to the card scanner below him as Mipple told Honoka the same thing.

"Like this?" Nagisa said as she swiped the card across the scanner.

"You too-mipo!" Mipple said to Honoka as she too swiped the card. And then, a blinding light occurred, blinding Pisard and Dai as Pisard stopped throwing objects.

"N-Nani!? What's going on!?" Dai thought out loud. And then…

"Duel Aurora Wave!" The voice of both girls yelled out.

"Wait, what did I just say?" Nagisa wondered before another burst of light occurred, this time one with more color as the light erupted into a pillar that prevented both males from interfering.

"What's happening!?" Dai shouted, speaking for both him and Pisard as he covered his eyes from the light.

After a few seconds later, the light erupted again and vanished. In its place was Nagisa and Honoka, looking very different from before.

Nagisa had a new outfit that is a black and purple midriff-bearing top with pink ruffles lining the sleeves and a light pink bow on her chest. On her arms are elbow-length black arm warmers as well as black finger-less gloves. The warmers are lined in pink and each feature a heart at the wrist. She wears a black skirt atop black mini-shorts that features ruffle trimming of each layer and she has a pink belt with a heart-shaped buckle around her waist. Lastly, she wears black legwarmers with a heart at the top of each one and red shoes. Her earrings and buckle are silver and her hair bangs are move to the left.

Honoka too had a new look as she wore a white dress with the top part featuring ruffle trimming, a white bow and a baby blue stripe in the middle while the skirt part being white with lace trimming at the bottom and a dark blue belt around her waist. She wears a white bow with a dark blue heart in her hair, and her elbow-to-wrist gloves are white with baby blue ruffle trimming and each glove has a dark blue heart at the wrist. Lastly, her legwarmers are white with a baby blue heart and below it, matching ruffle trimming and white shoes.

"Hikari no shisha(Emissary of light) , Cure Black!" Nagisa suddenly introduced herself as Honoka soon followed.

"Hikari no shisha, Cure White!"

"Futari wa PreCure(Together, we are Pretty Cure)!" The both of them said as they posed together.

"What in the world?" Dai muttered as he and Pisard both had the same expression that said, 'What the hell just happened?'

Honoka then pointed at Pisard and said, "Servant of the power of darkness…"

"Return to the darkness from which you came!" Nagisa finished until she realized what she had just done. "Wait, what am I saying?"

"I would like to know that too." Dai said, thinking that both girls had sudden turned into Mahō Shōjo (Magical Girls).

"I have no idea what just happened, but that won't stop me from killing you!" Pisard said as she jumped towards the girls.

(BGM: Futari wa Pretty Cure OST: The Harsh Battle)

"Girls!" Dai cried out in worry.

Both girls panicked and did the first thing that came to mind and that was to jump away. What they didn't expect was when they jumped, they were higher than they expected.

"What!?" Pisard said, surprised.

"Amazing! I flew all the way up here!" Honoka said, surprised at what she just did. After all, she wasn't as athletic as the girl next to her.

"How did we do that?" Nagisa asked. Athletic she may be, but she wasn't that athletic that she could jump that high.

"That's the power of PreCure-mepo!" Mepple said from the case holder he was in.

"Look out! He's coming from above-mipo!" Mipple alerted them.

Looking up, they saw Pisard coming in with a wide, sweeping kick which the girls managed to dodge. Landing on her hands, Nagisa pushed off and kicked towards the man, but he dodged and punched her away. Honoka then came in with a combo of kicks which forced Pisard to draw back a bit, Nagisa then too that chance to attack his back with punches, but after taking two, he turned around and kicked her in the gut, but to his surprise, she withstood it. He was so surprised that he was unable to block the next few attacks from Honoka who kicked his chest and face. Angry, he grabbed her leg and threw her away.

"Oh no!" Nagisa and Dai cried out in worry, but they were soon wiped away as Honoka flipped and landed on her feet perfectly, waving at the two that she was alright.

"Thank goodness." Dai sighed in relief as he looked back and saw Nagisa tackle Pisard off the merry-go-round and into the spinning cups ride. "I've got to help somehow." Even if the girls seemed to be doing fine, Dai was now one to let other people fight if there was a way he could help.

Back with the girls, both Nagisa and Pisard crashed into the spinning cups, creating a small dust cloud. Jumping out of said cloud, Nagisa landed on one of the cups as Honoka quickly returned to her side. They waited for the dust cloud to subside and when it did, it revealed to show an okay Pisard, but he was pissed.

"Damn! You annoying brats!"

"Don't forget about me!" Before he knew what hit him, literally, Pisard was struck by a small trash bin. Taking the thing off, he turned to see who did that and saw none other than Dai, coming in with a drop kick that connected with his face, sending him flying as Dai flipped and landed on one of the cups.

(BGM End)

"Dai-kun, sugoi!" Nagisa complimented her neighbor, amazed at what he just did. The same could be said for Honoka.

Dai simply smirked and gave the two a thumbs up. "I work out a lot."

Suddenly, Dai felt as if he was being pulled and before he knew it, he found himself in the hands of Pisard who choked him, squeezing his neck.

"Dai-kun/Ichi-kun!" Both girls cried out in worry as they went to help their friend.

"Ah, ah, ah. Not so fast you two." Pisard stopped the two as he squeezed harder. "Take another step and your friend's neck with be snapped like a twig." Both Nagisa and Honoka gritted their teeth in frustration. "Now, if you want your friend to live, hand over the fairies."

"No! Don't do it!" Dai said, but was silenced when his neck was squeezed harder.

"Quiet you. The three of us are trying to have a talk." Pisard said before turning back to the girls. "So, girls, what will it be?"

'Shit! I've got to do something!' Dai thought as he gathered all of his strength and raised his legs, kicking Pisard hard enough to let him go. Just taking one second to gather air into his lungs, he yelled out and threw a punch at Pisard that sent him flying back.

"Take…that…" Dai breathed as he gasped for air.

"Dai-kun!" Dai turned to the two as Nagisa pointed at him. "Your arm!"

"Huh?" Confused, Dai looked at his arm and was surprised as his arm was now covered in a white gauntlet with a golden wristband. "T-This is…" He recognized this gauntlet anywhere.

"You little brat!" Clearly pissed, Pisard charged at Dai.

Following his instincts, Dai ducked under Pisard's fist and punched him with his other hand as that arm soon transformed too. He then took the chance to kick Pisard with his right leg before kicking him away with his left. Looking down, his lower body was replaced with a black bodysuit with golden kneepads and golden bands around his ankles. Not letting Pisard have the chance to recover, he ran up to the man and punched his face, his chest, and his gut before he felt his torso getting heavier. Finally to finish it off, he grabbed Pisard by his cloak, pulled him on before giving him a hard head butt that sent them both back.

"Ow…" Dai rubbed his head, but he instead felt something else. He felt a helmet and small horns.

"Ichi-kun…?" Honoka muttered in confusion and surprise.

Getting up, Dai looked at himself with a nearby mirror. From head to toe, he was covered in armor. He wore a black body suit, a white chest armor that simulated pectorals, white gauntlets that covered his forearms, white round shoulder pads, and finally, a black helmet with large red eyes with small golden horns that barely extended past his head.

"No…way…" Dai muttered as he looked at himself.

He had just become… Kamen Rider Kuuga!

"What is this?" Pisard wondered, holding his head in pain.

"Dai-kun, is that…you?" Nagisa asked, still surprised at her friend's transformation.

"Yeah, it's me. I'm fine." Dai said as he looked at himself. Being a huge fan of Kuuga, he instantly knew that he was in Growing form, Kuuga's weakest form. 'Is this what that man said when he said become Kuuga?'

"Who are you?" Pisard demanded, pointing at Dai.

"Me?" Dai pointed to him, glancing back at the girls before he stepped forward. "I'm the guy who's gonna kick your butt!"

"Oh really?" Pisard said, amused. "Then go ahead and try!"

(BGM: Kamen Rider Kuuga OST: Gekitou)

Pisard dashed towards the newly transformed Dai. If he was normal, Dai wouldn't be able to react to Pisard's speed, but now that he was transformed, he felt stronger, his senses heightened so he was able to block Pisard's kick with one arm, wincing behind his helmet as he felt the power behind the kick, before he sent a straight punch to Pisard who caught it. He then attempted to slam him to the ground, but Dai slammed his foot down on the ground and used his momentum, this time he being the one to throw Pisard as the man crashed into some trash cans. Clearly pissed, Pisard used whatever powers he used earlier and sent objects towards Dai. Seeing them coming, Dai held up his fists close to his face, switching his battle style as he dashed towards, bobbing and weaving around the thrown object and before Pisard knew it, he and Dai were face to face.

"Nani!?" was all Pisard got to say before Dai's fist connected with his face. With a glint in Dai's eyes, sent punch after punch from left to right all to Pisard's face, not letting the albino colored man any time to counter. His punches were so fast and hard that the wind around him seemed to blow with each punch. Seeing that he was in a bind, Pisard brought his arms to his face to block the punches, but then Dai suddenly switched styles again, elbowing Pisard's gut so hard that the man coughed up both saliva and a bit of blood. He sent two more elbow strikes to Pisard's gut again before sending him flying with a shoulder rush.

"Amazing…" Nagisa muttered as she and Honoka were both completely speechless. Never have they seen Dai fight like this before, but then again, they've only known him for a year so there were still a lot of things they don't know about the teen.

"Hm?" Honoka noticed that for some reason, Mipple was shaking. She wasn't the only one as Nagisa soon noticed that Mepple was also shaking. "What's wrong?"

Mepple and Mipple didn't say anything as they were frozen in fear. The reason for this was because of the dark, keyword dark aura that was emanating from Dai.

'Wha…What is this…dark power?' Both Mepple and Mipple thought the same thing.

(BGM End)

Back with Dai, he looked down at his hands, opening them and closing them to get a feel. Despite the power up, he could still feel the numbness of Pisard's earlier kick. The only reason why he pushed back Pisard so easily was because he surprised him and he didn't let him get a change to counter.

'Guess Growing doesn't exactly have the best defenses.' Dai thought as he saw Pisard getting up. In response, he raised his hands in defense.

"You…brat! I will not be made a fool out of you!" If Pisard was pissed before, then he was even more pissed, if that was even possible. He then suddenly jumped up and landed on the spinning pirate ship ride before he held out his arms as if he was about to call upon something.

"Raging spirits of the heavens, Zakenna!" Pisard's voice came out like an echo as if he were shouting into a cave. "Heart of darkness, make them understand the horror of the Dark Power!"

Just as he finished chanting, the sky suddenly became blocked by pure black clouds.

"What's going on?" Nagisa thought out loud as she and Honoka joined Dai's side.

"I've got a bad feeling about this." Dai said and how right he was as the sky appeared to be colored in red and purple shading. And then, a dark aura suddenly rose from the park itself, manifesting into some sort being with yellow eyes and a tick mark on its forehead.

"ZAKENNA!"

"What is that!?" Nagisa shouted. But before she could get an answer, the being known as a Zakenna dove towards the roller coaster and seemed to possess it as the lights lit up and the ride took off an flew off the rails. A purple light then enveloped it and in its place was what could only be described as a monster.

"ZAKENNA!"

"You've got to be kidding me!" Nagisa said.

"Are we dreaming?" Honoka asked.

"This is no dream girls." Dai said…after pinching himself. He then shouted, "Move!" When the Roller Coaster-Zakenna fired lasers from its eyes.

Pisard laughed in satisfaction. "Excellent, Zakenna! Destroy them until there's nothing left."

"ZAKENNA!" With that roar, the Zakenna sent the wheels of its hands at the three. Seeing them, the three dodged to whatever direction they thought best. Nagisa and Honoka barely dodged the wheels while Dai simply punched them away. Suddenly, from behind, a wheel was heading for Honoka.

"Watch out!" Dai shouted and just when he was about to help, Nagisa beat him to it, batting away the deadly spiked wheel.

"Are you alright?" Nagisa asked and Honoka nodded.

"Thank you."

"I wouldn't relax if I were you." Dai said as the Zakenna towered over them.

"This might be a problem…" Nagisa said.

"You think?" Dai said as he thought to use his finishing move, the Growing Kick.

"Girls! Both of you, hold hands-mepo!" Mepple said from his container while also holding back his fear from being close to Dai's dark aura.

"And why would we do that?" Nagisa asked.

"Hurry up and do it-mipo!"

"I don't know what's going on, but I'll leave this guy to you, girls." Dai said as he stepped back to allow the girls to handle this.

Both girls looked at each other and nodded and before they grasped hands and suddenly, as if they had done this before, held up their free hand to the sky.

"Black Thunder!"

"White Thunder!"

*BOOM!*

The sound of thunder made Dai jump in surprise as literal black and white colored thunder seemed to rain down from the heavens themselves and into the palms of the girls, surrounding them in a protective rainbow aura.

"Purikyua no utsukushiki tamashī ga...(Our Beautiful souls…)"

"... Jaaku na kokoro wo uchikudaku(…Shall crush your evil heart)!"

The girls then tighten their hands together as they trusted their hands out and shouted with all their might.

"Pretty Cure Marble Screw!"

What happened next almost blew Dai away as black and white thunder blasted from the girls hands and towards the Zakenna, spiraling around each other before they land a direct hit on the Zakenna, enveloping it in blinding light.

"What!?" Pisard gasped as he covered his eyes from the blinding light.

When the light died down, the roller coaster was back to where it was before as the Zakenna spirit shot out and held its head in pain.

"Zakenna…!" The Zakenna gave out a weak cry before it suddenly bursted into hundreds of tiny little stars that kept saying, "Sorry…"

"What are these?" Nagisa said as she and the others stared at the remains of the Zakenna.

"They're kind of cute." Dai commented before he looked towards Pisard. "It's over, crazy albino man. Why don't you come down and surrender?"

"Surrender? Never!" Pisard said, but he didn't like his chances at the moment. 'As it stands, these brats are nothing, but a threat. I have to get rid of them. Tch, I was hoping to not rely on them but I have no choice left.'

He then dramatically pointed at the three and shouted something Dai never expected. "Grongi, take care of these brats!"

The world seemed to freeze over as well as Dai's thoughts. Did he just say…Grongi!?

"What!?" Dai shouted in surprise before suddenly he felt something stick to him arm. Looking down, he saw what could be webbing before he was suddenly pulled and was thrown into a random booth.

"Dai-kun/Ichi-kun!" The girls shouted in worry.

"Ugh…" Dai pushed away some debris before looking to see who had thrown him. His eyes widen when he saw the culprit.

"What is that!?" Nagisa shouted in surprise.

The reason for everyone's surprise was could only be described as something mixed between a man and a spider. Its entire body was a light swampy green color as cloth was wrapped around its fore arms and a loincloth hid his lower body. The thing that caught everyone's full attention was that the being had the head of a spider itself.

"Impossible! Zu-Gumun-Ba!" Dai recognized that monster from anywhere. It was the Spider Grongi, the first Grongi who fought Godai Yuusuke in the series. "What is he doing here!?"

"Hm? He knows what the freak show is?" Pisard muttered.

"Hmm, how interesting. Two female Linto warriors and Kuuga. This will be perfect for the Gegeru!" The Grongi spoke in its native language so no one understood what he said…all except Dai.

'I understood that! Why did I understand that!?' Dai thought before she shook the thoughts out of his head and got back up. What he said next surprised him. "Zu-Gumun-Ba! What are you doing here!?"

'What the!?" Dai placed a hand over where his mouth was in surprise. 'I…spoke Grongi!? I spoke the Grongi language! But how!?' A big fan of the series he may be, he never once studied the language of the Grongi so to see that he spoke it so fluently really surprised him.

"Hmph! I don't have anything to tell you, Kuuga. All you have to know is that you're gonna die by my hands!" With that said, Gumun charged towards Dai.

"And now is my cue to leave." Pisard said as he jumped away.

"Wait!" Nagisa said, but the man was already gone. "Dang it, who the heck was he?"

"I think we have bigger problem, Misumi-san." Honoka said as he looked back at Dai and the Grongi.

Dai blocked a wing at him and threw a punch to Gumun, but to his surprise, he caught it and took that chance to punch his face, sending Dai back. Gumun then threw a kick, but Dai caught, but then Gumun jumped and kicked him with his other leg, sending skidding across the ground.

"What's wrong, Kuuga? You're usually stronger than this." Gumun said before he threw another punch, but Dai caught it and using Gumun's momentum, he flipped him over and threw him over his shoulder, the Grongi landing in a hot dog stand.

'So glad I took those aikido lessons.' Dai thought.

"Ichi-kun!" hearing Honoka's call to him, he turned to see the girls making their way to him. Big mistake when webbing wrapped around his neck, choking him as he was suddenly lifted off the ground.

"Dai-kun!" Nagisa cried out as she and Honoka watched him being lifted and throw to the Ferris wheel.

Dai felt himself crash against one of the cabins and felt himself slip. He fell off the first cabin and landed on another one, sliding off until Dai stopped himself and slowly got on top of the cabin. Looking down, he gulped at how high he was. He wasn't afraid of heights, but with how high he was…yeah, he didn't want to think if he fell.

"And I thought Ferris wheels were supposed to be fun." Dai said as he began to look around for the Spider Grongi.

He looked left and right before turning around to look behind him, but then, Gumun appeared from behind him, swing from a string of web before he dropped kicked Dai, sending him off the cabin and where he hit a rail or two before he fell down, but managed to grab onto another rail to stop himself. He struggled to get back up and stood on the rail, placing a hand on another rail to balance himself before he looked back at Gumun who was laughing at him. Angry, Dai jumped towards the Grongi who jumped away before he could get to him. Dai looked up to see Gumun jumping up to the top and he soon followed after the Grongi.

"We got to help somehow!" Honoka said as she and Nagisa watched as Dai jumped higher and higher onto the Ferris wheel to chase after Gumun. Just seeing their friend so high up brought worry and panic to the two girls.

"Hey," Nagisa looked towards her carrier to talk with Mepple. "How do we do that move from earlier? That 'Marble Screw' thing or whatever."

"Just remember what you did before and the answer will come to you-mepo!"

Back with Dai, he continued to jump until he and Gumun stood on top of the highest cabins.

(BGM: Kamen Rider Kuuga OST: Senshi)

"I'll ask again, what-no, how are you here, Zu-Gumun-Ba?" Dai said. 'There I go again, speaking Grongi. How am I doing this?'

"Like I said, I've got nothing to tell you. But what I will say is that you will not stop the Gegeru!"

"We'll see about that." Dai said before he raised his fists.

Seeing that he was ready to continue the fight, Gumun shot out webbing again. Dai was prepared this time as he held up his arm, the webbing instantly sticking and wrapping around his arm, before he grabbed the web and jumped off the cabin he was one, bringing Gumun with him as they both descended down to the ground.

"You're crazy!"

"Not as crazy as you think!" Dai said, this time not speaking grongi as he pulled Gumun towards him and punched his face. In retaliation, Gumun threw his own punch and Dai returned the favor, the two entering a fist fight in the air. At the last second, Dai grabbed Gumun, turned him over so he would be first to crash into the ground and gave him another punch to the face for good measure before they both crashed into the ground. Gumun cried out in pain as he was the first to crash to the ground while Dai used him to soften his landing and rolled off the Grongi, exhausted. But he knew it wasn't over yet so he got back up only to meet Gumun's claws slash him across the chest, sparks flying as he rolled on the ground and held the place here he was slashed, surprised to see a bit of blood.

"I will admit, you're a good fighter, but this is where it ends, Kuuga!" Gumun said before he charged towards Dai.

Dai got up to his knees and gritted his teeth. But just then…

"Black Thunder!"

"White Thunder!"

A storm raged as Gumun stopped to see what was going on. Dai looked behind him and saw the girls preparing to unleash the move they had used earlier.

"Purikyua no utsukushiki tamashī ga…"

"... Jaaku na kokoro wo uchikudaku!"

"Dai-kun! Move!" Nagisa shouted before she and Honoka unleashed their attack. "Pretty Cure Marble Screw!"

Dai did as told and jumped to the left just as the attack of black and white spiraled past him and struck the Grongi across the chest. Gumun cried out in pain as he was pushed back a great distance away. Somehow, he managed to withstand it as the attack ended, but the damage caused by the attack was greater than Gumun guessed as he fell to his knees.

"It didn't finish him off?!" Nagisa said, surprised.

"But it's weakened!" Honoka pointed out.

"Thanks girls! I'll take it from here!" Dai said before he turned to Gumun and took a stance, breathing in and out before he concentrated energy into his right leg. Once ready, he ran towards the Grongi, his right leg now in fire as he left imprints in the ground. Seeing him coming, Gumun slowly got up and charged towards him, yelling in rage. Once Dai thought the distance was right, he jumped, flipped, and struck his flaming foot, the kick kitting the Grongi across the chest and pushed him back as Dai landed on the ground.

Gumun gave out cries here and there, holding the spot where he was kicked before he lowered his hands to show a mark left behind by Dai which was glowing with flaming energy. Cracks then started to form and made its way to the belt Gumun was wearing as Gumun gave out his finals words.

"Curse you…Curse you…KUUGA!"

*BOOM!*

(BGM End)

Dai and the girls brought their arms up instinctively as Gumun literally exploded. Chunks of debris and whatever remains of the Grongi splattered around and then, all was quiet.

"It…exploded." Nagisa said in surprise. She certainly wasn't expecting that. And she thought something like that only happened in TV shows.

Dai breathed in and out, tired as he held his bleeding chest. The girls then finally noticed the wound on him and panicked.

"Ichi-kun! You're hurt!" Honoka said in surprise.

"Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, you're bleeding!" Nagisa, being who she is, panicked.

"I'm fine, girls. This is nothing." Dai said as he felt the bleeding stop. Though he was still surprised that he actually bled through the armor. Guess Growing form's defenses were weaker than he first thought.

Suddenly, the carriers on Nagisa and Honoka shook, getting the three's attention as the girls held out their carriers.

"I think they want to be let out." Honoka said.

Nagisa nodded in agreement before she and Honoka took put Mepple and Mipple and when they did, what happened next surprised them.

"Mipple!"

"Mepple!"

*POOF!*

All three of them jumped in surprise when the two suddenly turned into…whatever the heck they are. Mepple had an yellow-lemon body and a tail with a star at the end and Miple had a light pink body with a heart at the end of her tail.

"I've wanted to see you for so long-mepo!"

"Me too-mipo!"

"What kind of creatures are these?" Honoka asked.

"Your guess is as good as mine." Nagisa said.

"They're kind of cute." Dai said.

"Ahem!" Nagisa cleared her voice to get the two's attention. "Look, I don't mean to interrupt this touching reunion, but I think we deserve an explanation."

"You have been given the power of Pretty Cure-mepo!" Mepple said, making sure to not look at Dai as he still was leaking whatever dark aura he had unconsciously.

"Pretty Cure?" Honoka repeated in confusion.

"Oh yeah, I think I said something like that just a moment ago." Nagisa said, remembering when both she and Nagisa transformed.

"From now on we will all fight together, with you girls as the emissaries of light, Pretty Cure-mipo." Mipple said.

"Fight? Don't decide these things on your own." Nagisa said, not liking the idea of fighting again.

"We are also in your care-mepo."

"From now on, let's all help each other-mipo!"

"Ehhh? I don't get it at all…" Nagisa said.

"But it sounds kind of interesting." Honoka said, surprising Nagisa.

"Huh? Mou, arienai!" Nagisa shouted.

"Yosh! Let's all get along!" Dai said, giving the two creatures a thumbs up, but then titlted his head in confusion when they drew back from him. Did he do something to scare these two?

But then…

*WEE-WOO! WEE-WOO! WEE-WOO!*

Dai, Nagisa, and even Honoka froze in surprise before they all turned slowly and saw red and blue lights in the distance, heading to where they were at.

"You have got to be kidding me…" Nagisa said.

"The police?" Honoka guessed.

"Run!" Dai shouted before they all took off running.

"Ah! Wait for us-mepo!" Mepple cried out as he and Mipple chased after the three.

"Mou... Arienai!" Nagisa yelled louder than before as the three of them ran as fast as possible to escape the park before the police arrived.

And thus marked the first day Cure Black and Cure White were born, and the birth of this world's Kamen Rider Kuuga.

And done! Holy…shit! First chapter and I'm already past the 10,000 word mark, my god! Do I have dedication or do I have dedication! Anyway, I hope you all like the first chapter of the story. If you're wondering why I suddenly skipped a year without showing what happened to Dai when he arrived in PreCure no Sekai(The World of Pretty Cure) it's because like Kuuga, I'm going to be using a bit of time skipping. Don't worry, I'll show what happened to Dai when he arrived at PreCure no Sekai and how he knows both Nagisa and Honoka already in the next few chapters. And I shall also explain why the hell does Dai know how to fight. Until then, this has been Ashbel Longhart here, signing out. Till the next ride. But first, allow me to leave you guys with a little something I like to call...

Pretty Cure: Rider Fun Facts:

"Hello everyone! Good afternoon-mepo!" Mepple suddenly appeared in stage with a microphone in hand. "In case you need a reminder of who I am, I am the chosen hero of the Garden of Light, Mepple-mepo!"

"And I am the Princess of Hope, Mipple-mipo." Mipple then appeared as well, bowing to the crowd/readers.

"What is all this?" Nagisa asked as she and Honoka looked around in confusion.

"This is a segment provided by the author for those who want to know a little more about Kamen Riders-mepo." Mepple said. "Today, we shall be looking at Dai's Rider form, specifically, the Growing Form.

Up on the screen, the picture of Dai in growing form appeared with a bit of data here and there.

"According to the info provided by the Rider wiki, the Growing Form's punching power is equal to that of 1 ton and his normal kicking power equal to 10 tons-mepo."

"That's a lot of power." Nagisa said, surprised.

"Not only that, but in this form, he can jump up to 10 m, or 49 ft and 2 in as well as run up to 100 m, or 328 ft in 7.2 sec-mipo." Mipple said.

"Sugoi." Honoka said. "And this is his weakest form?"

Mepple nodded. "In human terms, he's strong-mepo. But against Grongi, he doesn't stand a chance-mepo."

"Dai will normally turn into this form either if he fails to utilize Kuuga's power or if he gets seriously injured and is unable to transform for 2 hours-mipo."

"Geez, sounds harsh." Nagisa said.

"However, despite being Dai's weakest form, he can still utilize the form's finishing move, simply called the 'Growing Kick'-mepo." Mepple said.

"However, the Growing Kick is only 1/3 as strong as Dai's Mighty Kick so if he wants to take down a Grongi, he'll have to kick one three times-mipo." Mipple said, reading off the wiki.

"Wait, if that's true then how come he was able to kill the Spider Grongi with one kick?" Honoka asked.

"Simple. Your attack, the Marble Screw, was able to weaken the Spider Grongi enough that a single Growing Kick was all Dai needed to finish him off-mepo."

"I see." Honoka said. "Then what about Dai's fighting style? I noticed that he would switch styles when he fought Pisard."

"Oh yeah, I noticed that too." Nagisa said.

"According to what the author told us, what Dai used was karate, boxing, a Chinese martial art called bajiquan, and aikido-mipo." Miiple read off a paper handed to her by yours truly.

"EH!? Dai knows all those!?" Nagisa said, in surprise. "How?!"

"We can't say because the author won't let us-mepo." Mepple said. "But all will be explained if you readers continue reading this newly made fanfic."

"Please do! I want to know how Dai knows all these fighting styles!" Nagisa pleaded with the crowd.

"I have a feeling that our first adventure is going to a lot harder than the one in the series." Honoka said.

"Until then, thank you all for reading-mipo!" Mipple said as she and the others waved goodbye.
