Season Touch Pretty Cure!

Distant Memories

The sound of sprinting echoes through the halls. Hanabi runs proudly while everyone stares weirdly. Hanabi was excited about her soccer tournament. For years the team hasn't made it to the finals, but thanks to Hanabi's great teamwork and patience, the female soccer team made a breakthrough. Every game they've won had a large gap in between scores. Except for Hanabi, everyone on the team was nervous.

Looking out from the window, Mei notices Hanabi sprinting out from the entrance. She bursts out laughing at how stupid Hanabi runs. Naoki hears Mei's cute laugh and smiles at her adorable smile. He calmly walks towards her with a cheesy smile.

"Hey Mei," He says casually.

Mei darts her vision towards Naoki, bursting out in laughter again. Naoki stands still, flustered at the situation. She slaps his shoulder laughing harder.

"Um, Mei?"

She takes a deep breath, calming herself down a bit.

"Sorry," She shakes her head a bit. "Must've put too much sugar in my cereal this morning,"

Naoki glances over at the window, spotting Hanabi jogging in place.

"Should we be concerned or..."

"Nah its Hanabi, no need to worry,"

"Let's go home?"

Mei nods.

Hail explores the large city, eyeing each person who passes her. She felt very energetic but part of her was curious about the past. What happened before they were Dark Nature's companions? Now was not the time to catch feelings. She needed to prove what she's made of.

Hail enters the exciting plaza where hundreds of citizens attended every day. She gazes at all the cool gadgets small little stores had for sale. Unfortunately, she didn't bring enough cash.

"Watches! Come get your watches!"

Hail curiously stares over at the man in front of a small retail store. She approaches him slowly, keeping a close eye on his actions. The man stood tall with bright blonde hair. The reflection of the sun off his hair could nearly blind you. He also wore glasses and a bright yellow t-shirt with a small eagle logo on the right.

The male notices Hail approaching him. He extends his arm full of watches out as he kept his tone down since she was so close. Hail stops, forgetting her purpose of approaching him. She hesitantly backs away from the male.

"Want to buy a watch?" He says in a friendly tone.

Hail examines the small gold watch on his hands. She reaches over to grab it but he pulls back his arm.

"This watch is expensive, are you sure?"

"All it does is track time, right?"

He nods.

"Well that's all a clock does," He laughs nervously.

"Have you ever wished you could turn back the hands of time?"

Hail devilishly smiles at him, extending her arm to his face, caressing his chin softly.

"S-Sometimes," His breathing grows heavy. He has never been so close to a pretty girl before.

"You'll be perfect," She whispers.

She opens her palm releasing a small black butterfly. The butterfly bites into his neck. Black smoke ascends out from his body as he dropped multiple watches on his arm except for the golden watch. Hail steps back from the male and watches deviously as he screams in agony.
