Red let out an evil laugh in victory as looked down at the two downed Cures at his feet. Although Swan still tried to get up, there was no way she could fight anymore.
“I have waited for this moment for a long, long time, Cure Lovely. Your conviction didn’t change a thing and now that blue planet you hold so dear will be destroyed. Love… Hope… Kindness… and Courage… all of them are meaningless in the end!” he gloated. As he walked towards them, probably to finish them off, Swan looked around at her surroundings. This planet… it had a certain beauty to it, but at the same time…
“Goodbye, Precure named after love. Sleep for eternity in despair!” the god began emitting a scarlet aura full of hatred as he was about to begin whatever Swan interrupted earlier. The blonde Cure clenched her hands into fists as she pushed herself up enough to lift her head.
“Red… all this time… you must have been so lonely…” Swan muttered, looking straight at the god. He obviously heard what she said, for he suddenly stopped what he was doing, giving the girl a confused look.
“Where did you get that from?! You seriously haven’t given up, runt?” Red asked, his fists tightening. Swan didn’t know why he stopped… whatever he was doing, but this was probably something she could use to her advantage. She didn’t know how, but it would probably help give Lovely more time.
“After your planet was destroyed, you were all alone, weren’t you? And after all that time, you let all of those negative feelings build up… it’s… it’s so sad…” Tears fell down Swan’s cheeks as her expression turned to one of pity for the god. That only served to enrage Red, however, as his crimson aura flared up and he did those hand motions again.
“There is no way you can understand what I’ve been through! Disappear along with the Earth, both of you! Eternal Gauge!” He called out, sending up a beam of red energy that quickly came down on Swan and Lovely. Swan flinched and shut her eyes tight, anticipating the moment where her consciousness would fall into nothingness, but it never came.
The red beam that was going to seal the girls into a mirror had become rainbow-colored, healing their injuries and filling them with energy. As it faded, Swan soon figured out why this had happened. All over the planet, there were small lights in various colors floating towards the Cures.
“This light…” Swan muttered. These were everyone’s prayers! Red stepped back, seeming to recognize these lights and being angered by them. Swan clasped her hands together as she gave the god a warm smile. She could feel the power of everyone’s hope, she could feel their warmth.
“It may be true that I don’t understand what it’s like to lose everything like you did, I do know what it’s like to be alone. That’s why…” Swan held out her hands as the lights started to join together. Becoming a big ball of light, they floated down into her hands, changing into a set of PreCards right before they touched her. “…I’m going to help everyone’s feelings reach you! You don’t have to feel the pain of being alone anymore!” And with that, Swan inserted the new PreCards into her PreChan Mirror.
“Pretty Cure Rolling Mirror Change!” As she cried those words, the blonde’s body was surrounded by a warm white light as she changed forms. “The eternal wings of grace soaring high! Forever Swan!”
The new form made her look more like a Cure with a white theme color instead of her usual light blue. Her hair had come down and turned white with a very pale blue hair ribbon tied in the back and there were golden wings attached to the sides of her shoes, giving her a look that seemed more powerful than she had ever been.
With her transformation done, she looked back at Lovely, smiling. “Are you ready, Lovely?” If they worked together, they would surely be able to save everyone!
Lovely had completely given up. She lay there, waiting for Red to finish the job, but when Swan spoke she slowly opened her eyes. Lonely...? So Swan saw it too. Of course Red had to be lonely, but Lovely’s attempts to get through to him had failed. Could Swan do it...?
Red stopped - at least for now. It was working.
“She’s right.” Lovely’s voice was still quiet, but held a renewed confidence in the tone. Her arms trembled as she pushed herself up, but her arms were bright with determination. She might not be in any shape to fight, but she couldn’t give up until the end. There was still a chance.
“Maybe we don’t understand exactly, but that doesn’t change the fact we want to help you. You don’t have to be alone anymore, Red.”
Maybe it wasn’t working as well as she’d hoped. Lovely’s eyes squeezed shut as the red beam came down on them, but it didn’t hurt like she’d expected. Actually, she felt...stronger. Her eyes blinked open, and a smile slowly spread across her face as she took in the warm light.
“Thank you, everyone,” she said quietly as PreCards formed and floated into her hands. “We won’t let your feelings of love go to waste! Pretty Cure Rolling Mirror Change!”
A new light surrounded her, and she gave a confident smile once her transformation was done. “The eternal love illuminating throughout the world! Forever Lovely!”
The Forever form wasn’t new for Lovely, but it certainly was for Swan, and she beamed with pride when she saw her friend’s new form. If they worked together there was no way they could lose! After all, the PreCure were invincible!
“Right!” She nodded to Swan, and then turned her attention to Red. The God looked stunned, but Lovely knew better than to underestimate him. She charged forward, refusing to give Red any time to recover from the shock, and aimed a kick at him. He blocked it, but was sent sliding back from the force of the blow.
“We’re sorry, Red, but this time we’ll show you how strong the power of love truly is! We’ll bring you back again, I promise!”
