New Royale Precure

Merry Christmas! The grand Christmas Ball!

Cafe
All over the cafe, wreaths and other winter decorations were decorated everywhere. There was a Christmas near the fireplace and at the fireplace, many students were gathered trying to warm themselves up, either by the fireplace fire or the cocoa the cafe staff were making.

Christmas specials were sold in the cafe, where students added it to their pancakes or toast. While the aroma of tea and coffee mixed the air, the atmosphere was full of lively chatter, discussing their plans for the winter break or what they would be wearing to the Christmas party later that evening. The Royal Club was no exception.

"Elisa, what are you wearing?" Madison probed.

"The same dress I wore for the cultural exchange," Elisa replied.

Madison and Alicia looked at each other. "How about we all wear that?" Madison suggested.

"Let's do that!" Alicia agreed, before the conversation shifted to their winter break plans.
Later that day
Porcelain Thrones
The girls were all brushing their hair, spraying perfume and docking themselves in makeup to impress the princes. Elisa was doing the final touch-ups of her makeup, Madison was combing her hair and Alicia was spraying perfume. Once again, the whole room was full of chatter - this time wondering whether the princes would be there to dance with them or what they would do or eat. The Royal Club decided to leave to get ready to enter the ballroom, talking about their "ballroom experiences" along the way. (and occasionally teasing each other)

After 15 minutes of waiting, the girls' patience were finally rewarded when the ballroom doors opened. Everyone filed in a line graciously to enter the ballroom, where the initially tranquil ballroom slowly grew lively.
Ballroom
While Alicia explained to Elisa how Royale High balls worked, Madison helped herself with the refreshments. Slowly sipping on her berry cider, she strolled around, hoping to give the new members an introduction in advance.

Elisa also happened to be on the lookout for the new members when she heard the intense clacking of boots. Turning around, she saw a familiar face - the prince of Burnia, Mike. She had remembered him from a function when she was just a kindergartener.

"You must be Elisa, right?" Mike asked while panting. "You've grown."

"I am Elisa," Elisa greeted politely. "Nice to meet you again, Mike. Are you one of the five new applicants for the Royal Club?"

"Yes I am. I signed up because you all had a slogan I could relate to - getting back what I lost. I lost Burnia after a nuclear attack, but somehow I escaped unscathed."

"That must have been hard to deal with, but I'm sure everyone feels the same way. They all want to get their homelands back to their former glory."

"Thanks. Come, let's go there to dance!"
Main dancing area
Dragging Elisa to the main dancing area, Mike gently grabbed Elisa's hands. He started walking in circles along with her, and Elisa slowly followed suit. As they chatted, Mike started initiating rather crazy moves into the dance, but Elisa was able to match his dancing ability and soon got used to the dance.

After dancing, it was time for the voting for the Christmas Ball. With the stands prepared, everyone stood on the stands with special phones in their hands. Voting the students with the best outfit, the stands were removed soon after as the committee got ready to calculate the scores.
No manners land
Watching the girls have fun, Frostbite smirked and suggested, "Oh my god, they are having a party and enjoying themselves?"

"So what do you want to do?" Sunburn asked. "Watch and mope around?"

Snapping out of his daze, Frostbite dashed out of the door. "I'll be off!"
Ballroom
After more chatting, dancing and eating, the ball winners were announced - the student council president and Alicia. Everyone was applauding them when loud, deliberate footsteps could be heard. This caused the students to break out in cold sweat, even the Pretty Cures themselves.

Soon enough, a loud snicker followed. That turned out to be none other than the much feared Frostbite. "I will make you forget about modesty!" Frostbite screamed. "Go, Gangphone!"

"GANGPHONE!" The Gangphone echoed.

"Everyone, evacuate immediately!" Elisa ordered. "We'll finish the fight here!"
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!"
Ballroom
Elisa took charge and began the fight first. Gaining her Ice Arrow, Elisa pulled it back and screamed, "Let the icicles Pierce through you! Precure, Icicle Shoot!" However, both the Gangphone and Frostbite dodged it in time, simultaneously, leaving Elisa in shock.

"Ha, as if these useless arrows are the only things you rely on," Frostbite remarked casually.

"We don't rely on tools alone," Elisa lectured. "We rely on our hearts and will to protect all of Destiny. Destiny is only what it is right now thanks to the Pretty Cure fighting hard for what means to them. We are the reason why we can have a peaceful Christmas ball."

"Take this!" Alicia screamed, jumping up high and zooming down to give a punch. The Gangphone pushed her back and knocked her out. Summoning her Love Sword, she was quick to pick herself up again and ran to Gangphone again, this time challenging both Frostbite and Gangphone to a 2v1 fight. Unfortunately, Frostbite and Gangphone emerged victorious.

Not wanting to be the shadow to her friends' light, Madison decided to take her "first step." Jumping up, she summoned her Nature Arrow. She pulled back the string and screamed, "May the green trees calm your heart down! Lush Tree Arrow!" Her attack instantly dazed the Gangphone.

"Let's go!" Madison declared.

"Yes!" The others chorused.
Group attack
The three girls pressed their Royal Brooch buttons simultaneously. "Royal Arrows, grant me your strength!" They chorused in unison, and the arrows landed on their hands.

After receiving the arrows one by one, Elisa introduced, "With drive and stability, Ice Arrow!"

"With passion and kindness, Love Arrow!" Alicia followed.

"With peace and healing, Nature Arrow!" Madison finished. All three girls stretched the strings back at this point.

"We will unite the elements of life!" The girls chorused. "Precure, Elemental Arrow Shooting!" The three arrows defeated the Gangphone all at once.
Ballroom
As the trio detransformed, the student council president regained consciousness once more. The students knowing the chaos has finally ended streamed back to the ballroom. Mike came back to Elisa and held her hand gently. "Wanna go to the balcony?" Mike asked gently. Elisa blushed and nodded, before Mike walked her to the balcony.

At the balcony, Elisa admired the scenic winter scene from above. As the wind blew, Elisa took in a moment to enjoy the chilly breeze she always enjoyed. She managed to catch up with her childhood friend for a few moments when Madison and Alicia caught up to her.

"That's Mike, one of the five new Royal Club members," Elisa introduced. "He's from Burnia. We hung a lot until I lost contact with him because of Burnia's nuclear attack."

"Nice to meet you, Mike," Madison greeted. "I'm Madison and that's Alicia."

"Hello!" Alicia greeted.

The quartet giggled in the night sky.
