After a day with friends, Gina was requested to join her parents in the living room as they wanted to discuss something with her. Greeting her parents as per usual and sat on a chair opposite them to see what they wanted, only to be greeted with silence.

"Is there something I should know about?" Gina straightened up.

"The thing is Gina," her Father started. "I got a job offer."

"That's great news, but I take it there's more." Gina fiddled with her hands.

"Yeah." her Mother confirmed.

"We have to move." her Father added.

"Where are we moving to?" Gina quizzed.

"Canada."

Standing up without a word, Gina grabbed her things and walked out, grabbing her things and made a call as she did so.

"Gina!" her mother called to her.

"I suggest leaving her alone, Ma'am." said the butler. "She could use the time to think."

"I guess you're right." she agreed.

Ako and Ayako ran to the spot and found Gina curled up in a ball with tears. Ako was quick to hug her friend while Ayako rubbed the girls back for comfort. Once they were sure Gina was able to properly speak, they gave her space.

"What did you want to talk about, Gina?" Ako held her friends hand.

"My family may be moving to Canada." Gina confessed.

"Canada?!" exclaimed her friends.

"Mmhm." Gina hummed.

"I take it you don't want to go." Ayako guessed.

"How did you know?" Gina wiped a tear.

"Lucky guess." Ayako smiled.

"Did you say anything to your parents?" Ako asked.

"No, not really." Gina sighed. "I just walked out without saying a word."

"You should say something to them." Chain shrugged.

"Chain!" Ako an Ayako scolded.

"Sorry." Chain held up her hands.

"Thank you."

"I know I should say something, but how do I know they'll want to listen to me?"

"You won't know unless you do, right?"

"I guess."

"We'll come with you for moral support."

"Thanks, girls."

"Uh, girls."

"Yeah?"

"Chuuya."

"Seriously? Now!"

"Lets go."

Precure! Wind my gears!

Clicking the pen and drawing on-air, Ayako got a high waisted layered skirt and a long sleeve shirt that went around below her shoulders. Placing her feet into a circle gave her mid-knee boots and stockings.

Long ponytails were made in her hair mid-back length garnet hair with the change to more of the rose tint. A top hat on a hairband soon followed and the pen made room in a bag which manifested from it.

Clicking the pen and drawing on-air, Gina got a bodice-like dress and an asymmetrical skirt that ended at her feet as it wrapped around the midthigh skirt of the dress with a bow placed at her stomach. She drew a square with her feet and as it glowed, she was given high heeled ankle boots and leggings.

A long ponytail was made in her short deep orange hair with the change to more of the lighter tint of the color, which also gave her a fringe. A watch at the starting point of the ponytail soon followed and the pen made room in a bag which manifested from it.

Clicking the pen and drawing on-air, Ako got a dress with a strap wrapped around the left shoulder and the skirt of the dress that ended midthigh and fabric that was split at the belly that wrapped around her. She drew a diamond with her feet and as it glowed, she was given heeled knee-high boots and thigh-high fishnets.

A long ponytail was made with her deep purple hair with the change to more of the lighter tint of the color, which went to her right. A gear was at the start of the ponytail and bat wings manifested on her back which was soon followed the pen making room in a bag manifested from it.

"May these wings help me to fly in the light of love. Cure Butterfly!"

"The clock that forever winds forwards and backward. Cure Watch!"

"May these wings guide me through the darkness and into the light of day. Cure Bat!"

"As the lights gather, may the past and future come together. Steampunk Precure!"

"Can we make this quick?" Bat quipped. "I want to get back to homework and make sure Watch is alright when we're done."

"Sure thing." Doori grinned. "Chuuya. Get them."

"Chuuya."

"Woah."

Dodging the Chuuya left and right, a move Watch had made had it run straight into a tree.

"How did that happen?" Butterfly questioned.

"I have no idea." Bat shrugged.

"I've got it!" Watch exclaimed.

"Got what?" Butterfly gestured.

"Lets dance." Watch grinned.

"Dance?"

"Yes, dance."

"Lead the way."

Deciding on going after the girls one at a time, the Chuuya was missing them all left and right. While each of the girls were leaping and ducking out of the way, Rust was watching them from a distance.

"If only I could have that much fun." Rust whispered.

"As light comes together, may you find peace. Precure! Steampunk Chorus!"

"I don't want to move to Canada." Gina boldly stated.

"Why not?" her Mother stressed.

"My friends and life are here and I don't want to start over." Gina held onto her friends. "Not to mention I have only got one more year of school left and I want to finish it here in Japan."

"Where are you going to stay?"

"I'll stay with Ayako."

"What will her parents think?"

"They have already given their blessing, just as long you're okay with it."

"If that is what you wish."

"Thank you."

"Now all we have to do is move you in."

"I can't wait to see what living like you is like."

"You'll have a blast, trust me."
