Alicia's dorm room
Past midnight, while Elisa was sleeping, Alicia stayed up with her computer on. The theme given was Birthday, a theme she never worked with before.
She should be happy that there was something for her creative brain and hands to work with but she did not. She knew to even get the outfit done, she had to forsake studying and club activities. Sighing, all she could do was go to her modelling idol's blog and hope for a blogpost with that theme.
Royal Clubroom
"Our "About our realms" activity has succeeded," Elisa remarked. "Now, as the Queen said, it's time to find some new members."
"Really?" Madison asked in shock. "We need to create the posters, create the Doogle forms and make this make that!"
"Chill, Madison. Our finals are around the corner so we should focus on that first. Let's make a plan first."
"Sure, we should leave that to Alicia. She's great at these kind of stuff...Alicia?" They only met Alicia sprawled on the table, as if her soul was flying out of her body.
The girls tried all sorts of ways to revive the "dead" Alicia, before Alicia jolted and screamed, "I'm here! I just haven't been able to sleep well recently..."
"Are you ok?" Elisa asked in concern.
"Yea..." Alicia replied hesitantly.
"She's in another modelling contest?" Madison asked in curiosity.
"Yes, she told me," Elisa replied, before turning around. "What's the theme?"
"Birthday..." Alicia answered.
"I'll see what I can do, but you cannot let your finals scores get affected. After all, next year is your final year."
General view
Elisa then helped Alicia meet her deadline. First, they came up with a mindmap about the concept "Birthday". Next, they ✨snuck✨ into an actual birthday party to put Alicia in the shoes of the birthday person. Finally, with both ideas in mind, Alicia created the dress. All without failing her finals.
A few nights later
Looking at the torso with the dress and party hat, the duo oohed and aahed over the new design. Alicia leaped into Elisa's hands and thanked her. Elisa then replied, "To be fair enough, you've worked hard."
"I sure did!" Alicia chirped eagerly.
The following day
The next day, when Alicia was walking out of class, a mysterious boy stopped right next to her. "So you're Alicia, I/C for events right?" The boy asked mysteriously.
"Yes," Alicia replied suspiciously. "Why do you ask?"
"Aren't you a returning model for the Future Generation Competition? Isn't the Royal Club supposed to be about 'being nice and taking back what is being lost'?"
Alicia gasped.
"Have you lost your job as a model?! Are you a freelancer?? YOU DON'T DESERVE TO BE A MEMBER OF THE ROYAL CLUB!" Alicia fell on her knees and was left there as the boy strode off.
It was only luck when Elisa and Madison happened to pass by. When the boy saw the girls, he asked suspiciously, "Are you two her teammates for the Royal Club?"
"We are," Elisa replied suspiciously. "Why?"
"Get her out of the Royal club. She's a model and a member of the Royal Club believed to "bring back what I've lost." You selfish girls." The minute the boy whispered those words, Elisa slapped him immediately.
"Apologise."
To the girls' horror, the boy smirked and walked off smugly. Realising Alicia was crouched over, Elisa immediately ran over to her and checked in with her. What worsened Elisa's horror was that Alicia was left numb by the boy's mean words.
The Eve of the qualifiers for Future Generation Competition
On the way to the Royale station, Alicia started thinking about the boy's words to her. She started doubting herself whether she be a model alone, a cure alone, continue both positions simultaneously or give both up. After all, what mattered to her? Saving her realm or chasing her dreams?
No manners land
"Oh..." Loveless monologued. "A doubtful heart. Following dreams or staying true to value system." He smirked. "Just follow your dreams, Sweet."
Time skip-Sunset Island-Before the questions
The stage was lit up brightly with a colourful backdrop. Adam the host was checking his interview questions once more. The surrounding area of the walkway is just full of supporters from the various realms. It was a moment of chaos as people babbled about the different models appearing for this round of the competition.
"Will Alicia be alright going to take part in the qualifiers?" Madison asked in concern. "She seemed to be pretty affected by whatever that boy said."
"She should be better...hopefully," Elisa replied cautiously. Even she herself wasn't sure whether she has genuinely recovered or whether she was putting on a facade.
Backstage, Alicia's mind was still racing. Maybe she shouldn't be a cure. Just as she was about to take off her Royal Brooch to spoil it, the heavy footsteps could be heard distinctively.
"I will make you forget about Love!" Loveless screamed. "Go, Gangphone!"
"GANGPHONE!" The bridal Gangphone commanded.
All the spectators ran away but Alicia, Madison and Elisa ran from their previous positions, unpinning their Royal brooches from their badge.
Transformation
Pressing the red button on the Royal Brooch, Elisa, Alicia and Madison chorused, "Pretty Cure, Dress up!"
After this, Elisa untied her braid. Drawing a snowflake, she formed her snowflake shirt and skirt. Turning around, a trail of cloth grew behind her. Madison tapped her feet for boots. Pressing the brooch on her neck, she got a choker and then a heart clip. Putting the blue bow on her head, Alicia's silky black hair became a green ponytail. They pinned their Royal Brooches on their costumes before posing.
"The nostalgic snowflakes fall on the ground! Cure Winter!"
"Love knows no limits! Cure Sweet!"
"Nurturing the gift of life! Cure Dandelion!"
"The elements of life!" Elisa said.
"Unite together!" Madison and Alicia chorused. "Flourish! New Royale Precure!"
Sunset Island stage
"GANGPHONE!" The Gangphone screamed at the top of his voice. He slowly stomped to the trio, but Elisa was fast enough to stop him with Winter Shower.
For a moment, many people looked around, wondering "Why is there snow in the always summer Sunset Island?". Some people remarked about the mysterious identity of "Cure Winter".
In the present day, Madison continued running up to Gangphone, kicking him a few times, before punching him another few times. She then did a backflip and did a superhero pose in the end.
Alicia decided to attack. However, before she was even able to punch Gangphone, she fell onto the ground. "Huh," Loveless remarked carelessly. "What even matters to you? Is it being indecisive? Or just being a nuisance to Win-"
"STOP STAYING SUCH THINGS ABOUT HER!" A serious familiar voice echoed from behind.
"Huh?"
"She's improving! Her learning attitude, her ability to think from a more logical perspective... in fact I haven't seen the full image of her as a leader!"
Elisa then turned around to Alicia and asked her, "Alicia, who do you want to be? No... what do you want for yourself now?"
Immediately, she thought about the time she decided on the Royal Club. "I want to be follow my own dreams but also love! I want to stay both as a Cure and as a model!" Right after, she hopped a few times across the various points of the stage. Jumping up, she punched the Gangphone. Levitating mid-air, she knocked him out with her Love Sword.
Doing another set of backflips, she summoned her Love Arrow, with her body glowing brighter than before. Summoning her Love Arrow, she pulled the string back and screamed, "May I strike you with this love curse! Royal Lovers Strike!" The Gangphone was struck indeed.
Detransforming, Adam announced, "Sorry for the interruption. We will continue the programme."
General view
The pageant went per normal, with the contestants giving their heartfelt answers to the question. Everyone then strode down the runway confidently, showing off their birthday outfits. In the end, Alicia made it to the next round!
After the show
"Congrats Alicia!" Elisa and Madison congratulated while hugging her.
"Thank you!" Alicia replied back.
"Well, it's been a long period of time for you, so rest up. See you on Monday," Elisa advised.
"See you!"
