Smile PreCure meet the Dream Traveler Chapter 2

Smile PreCure meet the Dream Traveler
Chapter 2: Meeting New Friends and New Enemies

It was a sunny day in the town of Nanairogaoka. On the street, a motorcycle past by the crossroad. Of course, the motorcyclist is none other than Blaze himself. It's been several weeks since he and the PreCure All-Stars defeated Fusion at the city of Yokohama. Surprisingly enough, he and the Suite team meet the new PreCure team called Smile PreCure and most importantly, they witnessed a girl named Ayumi Sakagami transformed into a PreCure called Cure Echo. Right now, Blaze is riding throughout the street and start exploring the city. But his riding trip lasted as his bike's engine suddenly stopped and he parked on the sideway, near the gate of Nanairogaoka Middle School. He groaned and get off his bike to check on and see what's happened.

Blaze: Great! Now what?

Then he looked at the time, it seems that the class is starting if his calculation is correct. On his other side, Miyuki is running at a frantic pace as she screamed.

Miyuki: I'm late! I'm late!

Then, Candy poking her head out of the bag.

Candy: You say that every day. Don't you ever get bored-kuru?
Miyuki: Hey! It's not like I want to do this all the time! Hapupu~!

Unfortunately, doing so kept her from focusing on where she was going, and as a result, she ended up running into Blaze, who is still check on his bike, they fell down on the ground as Miyuki landed on her butt while Blaze landd on his back. Luckily for them, the bike is still standing or they'll be crushed by the vehicle.

Miyuki: Itai...
Blaze: Oww... *noticed Miyuki* Ah! I-I'm sorry, I should have watched where I was now.

Blaze got up and offered a hand to help her out as Miyuki smiled slightly as she took the offered hand.

Miyuki: N-no, it's okay.

It was at that moment that their eyes met, and they had a good look at each other. Both of them stopped short, as recognition entered their eyes.

Blaze: You're...Miyuki, right?
Miyuki: Blaze? *smiled widely and cheerfully* Blaze! It is you!

Miyuki was excited to see him again, before she practically jumped excitedly.

Miyuki: It's been so long!
Blaze: Yeah, since the time we defeat Fusion together.

Unfortunately, their little reunion was cut short when the sound of the school bell could be heard.

Miyuki: Oh, no! I'm late! *turned to Blaze* Sorry Blaze, I have to get to my class! I'll talk to you later, bye!
Blaze: Alright, see ya around!

Miyuki quickly running into the school as Blaze watched her get to her class.

Blaze: Seems everything was peaceful here. *turned to his bike* Well first, I have to check you out.

Blaze continued to check on his bike and he found a problem--his bike was out of fuel.

Blaze: So, you're 'hungry', huh? I'll get you some feast, then.

Soon, he pulled his bike to the gas station to refill. Later that day, class was coming to an end as Ms. Sasaki made the final announcements for the day.

Sasaki: And remember everyone, homework is due next week, so be sure to do it and don't forget.

Now that class was over, Blaze returned to the school gate as he finished refilling the fuel and started to look at the roof, thinking it'll be a great view to watch the city from the school roof or better, a tall building. So, he ran towards the wall and climbed it with his running speed, part of his ninja skill. In a matter of minutes, he reached the roof. Arriving on the roof, he saw Miyuki with 4 other girls.

Blaze: Hey, Miyuki!

Miyuki turned around and saw Blaze waving at her before running up to him.

Miyuki: Ah, Blaze! I'm glad you came!

Then she guided him to the other girls as she introduced them to him.

Miyuki: Let me introduce you to everyone. This is Akane Hino.
Akane: Hey there!
Miyuki: This is Yayoi Kise.
Yayoi: H-Hi.
Miyuki: ...Nao Midorikawa.
Nao: Nice to meet you.
Miyuki: ...And Reika Aoki.
Reika: I am pleased to meet you. *bowed formerly*
Blaze: Well, I already introduced myself the other day, but my name's Blaze Akechi, but call me Blaze. Since we already met when we fought Fusion together and we became friends, let's all get along.

Blaze smiled a goofy grin on his face, he was pretty glad that he made friends with the Smile team. Meanwhile, in a world covered by dark clouds, within the eerie castle of the Bad End Kingdom, the three commanders were once again playing a game to decide who would be the one to continue the plan. The first one is a humanoid gray wolf wearing a blue leather biker's outfit. He has long white hair and a white bushy tail. He wears a blue, sleeveless, outfit with a high collar and chunky belt. His name is Wolfrun, based on the Big Bad Wolf from The Little Red Riding Hood and The Three Little Pigs. The second one is a typical red ogre from Japanese folktales, with red skin, horns, fangs, and pointed ears. He is dressed in coarse brown cloth and tigerskin with leather belts. In terms of size, he is the largest of the 3 Bad End Kingdom commanders. His name is Akaoni, based on the demonic ogre from the Japanese story--Momotaro. And the third one is an old woman with a large hooked nose, few teeth, and hands with black claw-like nails. She is normally dressed in a dark green cloak with the hood over her head, and carries around a crystal ball. She is the smallest in terms of size of the three Bad End Kingdom commanders, reaching only up to their knees. Her name is Majorina and she's based on the wicked witch from many fairytales like Snow White.

Wolfrun: Curse those Precure. Always getting in our way.

He picked a card out of Majorina's hand, only to grimace when he found that he had picked the joker card.

Akaoni: Collecting the Bad Energy would be a lot easier if it weren't for them-oni.

He picked a card from Wolfrun's hand, but grimaced when he saw that it was the joker.

Majorina: What's worse is every time we use an Akanbe, the Precures get another Cure Decor back, and even using the Blue Noses don't help much-dawasa.

She frowned as she picked a card out of Akaoni's hand, but found it was also the joker. The three of them sighed, as they continued their game. So what, if the Precures kept getting in their way? They still got the Bad Energy that would revive their leader. Just as they were playing their game, a familiar chuckle rang through the air.

Voice: Seems you guys are frustrated.

The voice chuckled as the joker card they were using glowed, before their fourth member, Joker, emerged from the card. Surpising them.

Wolfrun, Akaoni and Majorina: Joker!
Joker: Hey everyone, good day! I couldn't help but over hear your conversation. Having a hard time coming up with a plan?
Wolfrun: Heh, what's it to you?
Majorina: That's right. It our mission is still the same-dawasa!
Wolfrun: *claws gleamed* Turn the world into a bad end!
Akaoni: Steal the futures and smiles of everyone!
Majorina: And use the Bad Energy to revive our lord, Pierrot-sama!

The Bad End commanders laughed evily.

Joker: Yes! Absolutely right!

Joker started doing random movements (spinning, splits, etc), before stopping as his tone turned serious.

Joker: However, the fact remains the Precures still stand in our way. That's why I've thought of a plan you might want to hear.

Back to Blaze and the Smile team, they waved goodbye and knew they'll catch them later.

Blaze: Gotta get going now! See ya, girls!
Miyuki: Bye, Blaze! See you soon~!

Blaze left with his motorcycle. The girls smiled happily that they'll meet Blaze again someday. But suddenly, the world around them suddenly changed, as the sky turned green and cobwebs filled the sky.

Reika: This is Majorina's Bad End reality!

Candy screamed from Miyuki's bag as any normal humans within the area were surrounded in a dark aura as they lost all will, the Bad Energy being siphoned.

Candy: Oh no! Everyone is starting to produce Bad Energy-kuru!
Voice: Eyahaha! Precures, this will be your final battle-dawasa!

Majorina, Wolfrun, and Akaoni suddenly appeared in mid-air, the Bad Energy flowing into the book that Majorina had in her hand.

Nao: So all three of them decided to come at us at once!

The girls pulled out their Smile Pacts.

Candy: Everyone, transform-kuru!

The girls nodded and begin to transform.

Pact: Ready!
Girls: PreCure! Smile Charge! *transformed into Cure form*
Pact: Go!
Happy: Twinkling and Sparkling Light of the Future! Cure Happy!
Sunny: The Sun, sansan, hot-blooded power! Cure Sunny!
Peace: Pikapika, glittering, rock, paper, scissors! Cure Peace!
March: Courage rinrin, a clear-cut match! Cure March!
Beauty: Shinshin, falling and gathering, noble heart! Cure Beauty!
Smile PreCures: The five lights that guide us to the future! Sparkle! Smile PreCure!

Meanwhile, Blaze sensed the evil energy around the city as he felt there's more evil presence. He braked his bike and took of his glasses, looked at the sky that has turned into green and there's cobwebs filled the sky.

Blaze: What the--? Something's not really right. I felt there's more evil presence around the city. I gotta find out what's happening!

Without a second thought, he turned back and ride away. Back to the Smile PreCures, the Bad End commanders were expecting them.

Akaoni: Heh, we were already expecting you-oni!
Majorina: That's right! This place will be your graves-dawasa!
Wolfrun: Yeah! Let's get started!

The three of them pulled out a blue nose each.

Wolfrun, Akaoni and Majorina: Come out, Akanbe!!

They threw the blue Akanbe noses as they activated, attaching to a nearby Gachapon machine--threw by Wolfrun, an electric fan--threw by Akanoni,  and a soda can--by Majorina--respectively, turned into a Gachapon Machine Akanbe, Electric Fan Akanbe and Soda Can Akanbe. Happy cried in surprise.

Happy: Eh?! Three Akanbe at once? No way!
Beauty: Not just any Akanbe, too. They're all Blue Noses!
Sunny: This is bad! We have to use Rainbow Healing as soon as possible!

The girls nodded as they all knew just how dangerous Blue Nose Akanbe were, as being made without Cure Decors, Blue Nose Akanbe were immune to their individual attacks.

Akaoni: Heh! I won't let you do that-oni! Akanbe!

The Electric Fan Akanbe responded as the blades of the fan started spinning rapidly, generating a whirlwind. The girls screamed as they were blown away by the attack, but managed to land on their feet.

March: If that's how you want to do it, then try this!

March running towards the Akanbe with her super speed, completely unaffected by the wind this time.

Wolfrun: Don't think it'll be that easy!

Wolfrun's Gachapon Akanbe jumped in front of Akaoni's Akanbe, before launching several capsules. March was surprised, as she was unable to stop, ending up trapped in one of the capsules.

Happy, Sunny, Peace and Beauty: March!!

The rest couldn't do anything, as they were suddenly pelted by missiles in the shape of soda cans, courtesy of Majorina's Akanbe.

Majorina: Ehehehehe! It's useless! Without all five of you, you can't use your combined attack, and without your combined attack, you can't hope to beat our Akanbe-dawasa!

Sunny: It's too early for you to say that!!

Sunny jumped out from behind the smoke and she started to attack.

Sunny: PreCure Sunny Fire!!

She launched the attack not at the Akanbe, but at the capsule that held Cure March, as she knew if she could get March out, then they would have a chance. Unfortunately, Akaoni's Akanbe immediately got between the attack, before generating another whirlwind, snuffing out her attack, while at the same time blowing her away, right into the path of another of the glass capsules launched by Wolfrun's Akanbe.

Sunny: Damn it!!

She started pounding the glass in hopes of results, but the glass was quite strong.

Majorina: That's two-dawasa!

Majorina cackled before her Akanbe fired more missiles, effectively blanketing the Cures in a cloud of dust.

Wolfrun: *smirked* And this'll make four!

Wolfrun's Akanbe launched two more capsules, straight for Cures Peace and Beauty, who were unable to see the attacks coming. The two of them managed to gasp, before they found themselves in capsules as well.

Happy: Everyone!!

Happy cried out in alarm as she saw all her friends (except Candy, who had ended up stuck in a nearby tree thanks to the first whirlwind) trapped in the glass capsules.

Akaoni: *smirked* Heh! And that leaves only one left-oni!
Wolfrun: Urufufufu! Why don't you just give up?! Not like you can do anything by yourself!
Majorina: That's right! Just give up already! We've won-dawasa!

The Akanbes moved forward to corner Happy. Happy herself was quite scared at this point. However, she didn't let that stop her, as she still had a determined look in her eyes.

Happy: No, you're wrong! Even if I'm by myself, as long as there is a chance, I'll keep trying! Trying until the very end!
Wolfrun: Heh! Look at you! Even now you're still spouting that nonsense! No matter how many times you try, it's useless!
Happy: It's not useless! No matter how hopeless it seems, I'll keep trying!

She charged straight at them. She knew she wouldn't be able to beat the Akanbe, not when they were blue noses, but she knew that at the very least she could still free her friends, and then they would have a chance.

Wolfrun, Akaoni and Majorina: Fool! No matter how much you try, it's useless! Go, Akanbe!!

The Akanbe launched their attacks.

Happy: No its not! I decided this since the day I became a Precure! No matter what, I'll keep trying, and then everything... Everything will definitely turn out happy!!

Happy increased the speed of her charge, even managing to slowly push through the fan Akanbe's whirlwind. Unfortunately, it didn't help much, as while she was trying to push through, the soda can Akanbe launched another volley of missiles at her, sending her flying from the explosions as her friends watched in horror.

Sunny, Peace, March and Beauty: Happy!!!

Happy was thrown through the air. What they didn't know, was that someone else had heard Happy's determined speech, and that someone would be the one to turn the odds. The Cures and Candy watched in horror as Happy was thrown back from the explosions. If the attacks didn't finish her, then the fall would definitely do it. However, just as it seemed that she was doomed, a blur shot out from behind the buildings, and caught her. When the blur landed, the Cures and the Bad End Commanders could see who it was, and boy! They were surprised when they saw a young man dressed in an outfit that looked more like a ninja rather than battle clothes. Happy opened her eyes and surprised to saw Blaze has arrived and saved her just in time.

Happy: Blaze!!
Blaze: Man, am I late?
Happy: You came here to save us?
Blaze: *smiled gently and nodded* Yeah! And it's part of the Dream Traveler's code to save my friends in danger. Well, can you stand?

He put Happy down near the tree as she fell unconsciously and Blaze glared at the foe that hurt his friends.

Wolfrun: Who are you?!

Blaze didn't answer. Instead, he drew his Dreamblade.

Blaze: Nobody hurts my friends.

Blaze's right palm flashed a brilliant light as he's ready to fire his first Mana Power--Mana Bullet.

Blaze: Mana Bullet!!

He shot a spread of light projectiles, which hit the Akanbe head on, causing sparks to fly as the monsters were thrown back.

Wolfrun, Akaoni and Majorina: What?!

The three Bad End Commanders gasped in disbelief.

Blaze: Now then...

Blaze pointed at the sky and shot out a ray of hope from his Dreamblade. Instantly, the Bad End world that Majorina had created crumbled under the Power of Light, and from the point where the world was restored, a purifying energy shot at Majorina. She screeched as the energy damaged her and seeped into her Picture Book of Darkness, before the Bad Energy that had been collected was forced out.

Wolfrun, Akaoni and Majorina: I-Impossible!!

The three of them gasped, as back in the Bad End Kingdom, the clock that counted the Bad Energy suddenly went in reverse as the recently collected Bad Energy was erased.

Blaze: (What the hell was that? Never mind that! I'll worried about it later...)

He focused on the enemy and calmly walked towards his opponents, gripped his Dreamblade tightly. The trapped PreCure watched in awe that Blaze is fighting them.

Wolfrun: I don't know who you are, but you're dead! Go, Akanbe!!

The Gachapon Akanbe started firing more glass capsules, intent on capturing this mysterious opponent, but Blaze, as a ninja, was faster than it had expected, as he effortlessly slash each and every one of the capsules with his Dreamblade, before he fired more Mana Bullets as the projectiles impacted against the Akanbe, sending it tumbling back.

Peace: S-so cool!

Peace gasped in awe, as the other Cures shared her sentiment. Akanbe, even blue nosed ones were tough in their own right, but this guy was fighting three of them, and easily winning.

Akaoni: If we can't catch him, then we blow him away-oni!

Akaoni's Akanbe generated another whirlwind. However, unlike the PreCures, Blaze easily evaded the attack, and even used some of the wind to help him dodge.

Blaze: Nice try. My turn.

Blaze slashed Akaoni's Akanbe with two simple, strong slash with his Dreamblade. Then he readied his attacking stance to perform his Limit Break--Thunder Hurricane.

Blaze: Thunder Hurricane!!!

He slashed the Akanbe and spin around it with his Dreamblade and strike multiple times like a tornado. It also caused the Akanbe lifted into the air and defenseless as the strike continues. Finally, with enough altitude, he slammed the Akanbe into Wolfrun's Akanbe before finishing with a barrage of Mana Bullets at the Akanbe, whilst at the same time, he shot a spray of light projectiles at the capsules holding the captive PreCure, breaking them free.

Akaoni: N-no way-oni!

Akaoni shouted in distress as their plan was quickly falling apart, all thanks to one meddler.

Majorina: We came this close! We will not go back defeated again-dawasa!

Majorina's Akanbe started firing missiles at Blaze, who easily dodged them. During this time, the Cures had managed to regroup, with all of them gathered at the tree where Wizard had placed Happy.

Candy: Happy! Wake up-kuru!

Candy was worried for her friend. Happy stirred slightly, before opening her eyes.

Happy: W-what? What happened?

Her eyesight focused, and she saw the battle between Blaze and the three Akanbes. She gasped as she watched Blaze fighting them alone.

Happy: Eh?! Blaze is fighting the Akanbe alone?!
Beauty: *nodded* Yes, and I can't believe he can fight pretty well. He's been beating the Akanbe easily.

Happy was surprised as she just gawked when she saw how easily Blaze was fighting the Akanbe.

Blaze: Time to crush this tin can in a trash compactor!

He drew back his Dreamblade and the aura of inferno rushed towards his power, a flame of light appeared in his right arm, then flow through the gauntlet, turning into a bright fireball, begin to use the Limit Break--FlareShot.

Blaze: OOOAAAAHHH!!! FlareShot!!!

Blaze fired the FlareShot at the Akanbe, sent it flying to the other Akanbes as Majorina's jaw hit the ground at the sight of her Akanbe being pulverized (again). Her Akanbe was burned, but somehow still alive.

Blaze: Here's a finale!

Blaze jumped higher into the air as his aura was formed into the shape of dragon as his burning aura flows around him. The unattached, flaming wings spreads as Blaze lifted into the air and readied his Dreamblade, pointed at the Akanbes to unleashed his Limit Break--Final Burst.

Blaze: Final Burst!!!

Blaze fly towards all of the Akanbes and collided it with flames and exploded. Blaze landed on the ground safely as the flaming wings disappeared. The Akanbes cried out, before exploding into flames, and when the flames subsided, all that was left was the items they were made of. The three Bad End Commanders were left speechless as their perfect plan had been completely ruined. Wolrfun was the first to snap out of it, before his features contorted to a look of utter rage. All his rage focused on the person that had ruined everything.

Wolfrun: C-curse you!­! Who the hell are you?!
Blaze: My name, by the way, is Blaze. Blaze Akechi. I'm a ninja and the Dream Traveler. But you can call me Blaze the Dream Traveler. Has a nice ring to it, don'tcha think?

Then Blaze glared at them with his serious look.

Blaze: But I'll say this much, anyone who dares harm the people and steal their smiles will answer to me!

He pointed his Dreamblade at them. The three commanders looked absolutely livid. As if the PreCures were bad enough, now they had another meddler to deal with. However, they knew they were at a disadvantage, so they opted to disappear, leaving no trace of them being there. With the danger gone, the PreCures approached to Blaze as Happy glanced at Blaze with her cheerful smile as her eyes sparkled.

Happy: Wow! Blaze!! I never know that you can defeat the Akanbe easily! That was so cool!
Blaze: Eh? Really? *scratched his head with a goofy grin* Eheheheh... Well, I can't let them have their way to steal the people's smiles, ya know.
Peace: Woah! That was really cool! Blaze-san! Your powers are really cool since we fought Fusion together!
Candy: I didn't know you can defeat the Akanbe, too-kuru.
Happy: Say, Blaze! Will you join us? Together, we can beat the Bad End Kingdom!
Candy: Happy! Are you sure this will okay-kuru?
Happy: Of course! He's so amazing and he fought alongside with Melody and the others! *turned to Blaze and offered her hand* So, can you join us?

Without any hesitation, Blaze took Happy's offered hand and shook it.

Blaze: Why not? I decided that I'll fight again!
Happy: Yay! From now on, you're offically a member of our team! Ultra Happy!!
Blaze: Ultra Happy? Wow! That was a happy word!

Blaze and Happy laughed together happily, the others followed suit as they were happy that Blaze joined the Smile team. Now with Blaze on their side, they had a chance to defeat the Bad End Kingdom. Blaze's new story has just begun.
