Author's Note: Yo! So I'm trying to get a bit back into writing again, so I took some prompts on Tumblr and ended up with a lot of Precure themed ones. I thought I would try to post them up here, to ensure people that I'm not quite dead yet.

Closure
Show: Heartcatch Precure
Character: Yuri Tsukikage
Summary: Yuri contemplates someone she didn't know at all.

Sometimes when Yuri touched her Heart Seed, she almost thought that she could feel her presence. After all, she had held onto it for some time.

She wondered what it would have been like if it had never come to this. Well, surely if her father had never ended up with Dune, she never would have been born. But did Yuri actually hate the fact that she existed?

She didn't really know. At the time, she wasn't able to think about it. Defeating Dune took priority over anything else.

But now that the world was at peace, she found herself lost in thought, rolling her finally restored Heart Seed against the surface of her desk. She couldn't focus on her studies at all, which was unusual for her.

What would she have been like? If her father had survived, and had come home with her, would the Dark Precure have come to? Did she have a name? 'Dark Precure' was what she had always, unthinkingly, called her, but she couldn't help but wonder now if her father had given her a name.

Probably. She wouldn't ever know it now though.

In the end, Yuri didn't doubt that her artificial little sister loved her father. She was loyal to him, not Dune. If her father had come home, had abandoned his created identity as Professor Sabaku, if she would have come with him.

Would she have a place in this world? She was created to fight her, after all.

Yuri had carelessly never given it any thought before. She never wondered where the Dark Precure had come from in the first place. She'd simply accepted it.

She wondered what would have changed if she had chased the truth a little harder.

Maybe they would both be alive.

Speaking of which, she still hadn't told her mother anything. But really, where would she even begin? Well, if she transformed in front of her, Yuri suspected her mother would have no choice to believe that it was the truth. But she didn't know her mother could handle the idea of her husband being brainwashed, used for evil, and then killed.

Or the fact that she had a second 'daughter' that she would never know.

Erika, Itsuki, and even Tsubomi now, had siblings of their own. But for as long as she could remember, Yuri had always been an only child. She wondered what it would have been like to have a little sister. Could you teach Dark Precure things? How to live in this world?

Would the world even have accepted her?

No, although Yuri didn't know about the rest of the world, surely the people of this city would have. That was the sort of place this was, after all. Strong hearts that were able to remain on this Earth even after Dune had transformed it into a desert, through their own power. There was no way that they would reject her.

But she would never really know. She didn't even have a name.

Letting out a deep sigh, Yuri placed her hand flat over her Heart Seed, closing her eyes. Really, it would have been nice if she could have found some closure at least.

But it would never happen.

After all, she already knew that the dead never came back to life.

She could only move forward. Clasping her Heart Seed tightly in her hand, Yuri stood up from her desk, resolving herself, and exited her room.

"Mom? I have something I need to talk to you about."
