Pikapika! Pretty Cure Jewels

Episode 3

On stage the spotlights came on and shined the lights on a young Chuya in a white ballerina outfit walked on stage. She opened her blue eyes and nodded before she danced around the stage. Leaping, and twirling she wowed the stage with her elegant moves. As she tried to do a long twirl... it happened.

When Chuya landed, she landed wrongly, twisting her foot in a horrible position. Everyone gasped in horror, some even screamed seeing Chuya's foot. However, the ballerina wasn't screaming in pain, not even a tear fell down her face.

GASP

Chuya woke up breathing heavily. She looked around her dorm and saw Harumi was asleep. She then turned to the clock and saw it was only 2:45 in the morning. Chuya sighed knowing it was a dream, or really a flashback. Chuya lied back down, but couldn't fall back asleep.

Under Harumi's bed, where Citrine was hiding the fairy was asleep as the Sapphire Prism Gem started to glow. The former woke up and looked at the Prism Gem glowing brightly. "The 2ndPretty Cure is here~rini." He whispered.

(OP: Make it! Pikapika Pretty Cure Jewels)

It was quiet in the dorm. Harumi was brushing her hair, Chuya was setting up her uniform, but no one was talking. Harumi glanced at Chuya, but finished off brushing her hair and tying it into its signature pigtails. She knew Chuya was mad at her, or her as Cure Pearl and hasn't spoken to her since yesterday. It was awkward.

Chuya turned to face Harumi tying her hair. She wondered if Harumi saw her behavior yesterday. Chuya felt embarrassed for yelling at Cure Pearl yesterday, and she hoped no one saw her, even Harumi. The young former ballerina was even scared going to class if anyone found out.

Annoyed with the silence Chuya decided to speak up, "Harumi." Harumi turned and looked at her roommate. "You okay?" She asked. Chuya wasn't sure what to ask Harumi. They were both silent so it was perfectly reasonable to ask if she was okay.

"Y-yeah." Harumi lied. She wasn't, but was making it a plan to keep her cure form a secret.

Chuya sighed, "Sorry it's just been quiet this morning. I just you know..." Harumi gave a small smile and nodded. Chuya sighed. "Did you see the recent battle with Cure Pearl yesterday?" She asked.

Harumi gulped, what was she supposed to say? Harumi was starting to freak out, she started to speak, but was having trouble finding the words to say to her friend. "N-Nope! I was in class! I didn't see a single thing!" She lied. Harumi hoped Chuya could take it.

Chuya sighed. "Thank goodness."

"Why?" Harumi asked.

"Uh...No reason. Come on we better get to class." Chuya changed the subject. "Okay." Harumi finished doing her hair and grabbed her backpack. The two friends smiled and walked to their class.

Citrine just woke up and came out from under Harumi's bed. "Harumi?" Citrine asked.

Chuya walked into class hoping for a normal class day, but to her surprise the entire class except her friends was glaring at her. Feeling horrified she slowly walked to her desk till a girl blocked her way. "What's wrong with you?!" The student shouted. Chuya was confused over her response.

"What do you mean?" Chuya asked.

"You know what Tsubaki is talking about!" A friend of Tsubaki spoke up. "How could you yell at Cure Pearl like that!?"

Chuya glared. "Look you weren't there. She said some pretty nasty things about me." She responded. However no one in class believe her claims and just surrounded her upset over her response.

Harumi sat in her seat not speaking up. If she did, it risked herself getting find out she's Cure Pearl and loosing Chuya. Still she saw the class getting intense making Chuya about to cry again. Harumi didn't like seeing her friend cry, and got up from her seat. "Guys calm down!" She shouted.
