Steampunk Precure

Time Moving Forward is Cure Watch!

While walking to school as per usual, Ayako was lost in thought about how she was going to explain yesterday's events. Luckily for her, no one seemed to remember or if they had, they weren't going to bother Ayako about it. She made it to homeroom and sat at her table and stared out of the window recalling yesterday's events.

During English, a visitor in the form of the student council president asked if she could talk to the confused and nervous Ayako. The class started at her like she had committed a crime and she followed the president out of the room. Walking a few steps behind the girl, Ayako wondered what she could have possibly done to make the girl remove her from lessons.

"Why so quiet, Hagaruma-san?" asked the president.

"I was wondering why you removed me from lessons, Vanna-san." Ayako replied.

"I wanted to talk to you about yesterday's events." Gina calmly told the girl as the entered the empty Student Council Room.

"Whatever do you mean by that?" Ayako questioned, wondering if the jig was up already.

"Can you explain this to me?"

Gina pointed to the computer screen and Ayako looked to see her transforming and fighting. As Ayako stared at the screen in shock, Gina stopped the video and waited for the shocked girl to give her an explanation. Seeing no way out of her current predicament, Ayako decided to tell her the truth in hopes she can keep the videos a thing between them.

"As you saw in the videos, it all happened and if I'm being honest with you, I don't have a proper explanation to explain myself."

"What will we do with the videos then?"

"Get rid of them. I don't need them circulating around the school and I especially don't want problems to arise from this."

"Consider it done on one condition."

"What may that be?"

"You hang out with me, and only me along this weekend."

"Done deal."

"What?!"

"Apparently one of the Precure suddenly appeared."

"I heard, Deco."

"Did you want me to do anything about it?"

"Get back down to earth and get rid of the problem before it gets worse."

"Right away."

The week couldn't have been quicker for Ayako and she was dreading having to meet the Student Council President of all people. In fact, Ayako was nervous to the point where she had arrived at their meeting place ten minutes early as to not annoy the girl or get on her bad side.

"Good day, Hagaruma-san."

"Good day to you too, Vanna-san."

"Have you been waiting long?"

"Not really. Shall we get going then?"

"We shall."

The two walked and talked about things and Ayako found out they had more in common then she had originally thought. While the two stopped to take a break at a café Gina was fond of, Ayako wondered why she was the one Gina had wanted to hang out with. Ayako had noticed she and her club president were good friends and had a couple of more friends to round them out.

"Want to know the real reason why I wanted to hang out with you?"

"Oh, uh, okay."

"I wanted to be friends with you."
