A nice friend from fanfiction.net, dan_heron  , is traslating the whole thing for me. Btw english is NOT our mother laguaje, so if you guys can point the script errors, we'll be glad for it. I'm planning publish the fic in english in ff.net too, but we think it's better check the errors first. We gonna try to update the parts fast, but I can't press my friend with the traslation ^^; the chapters are a little large and still needs tons of editing.
SUMMARY
It all started with a Festival. The Pretty Cures know precious little about each other team but they all must come together as a new battle looms near. They can't decide to fight or flight, for their enemy already decided for them. A far more dangerous enemy that any ruler of Darkness. Yuri warning (you know girlxgirl).

PREVIOUSLY...“If anything had happened to Chiffon, then the consequences would have been felt since last night,” she calmly explained. “You know she's a fairy with a great power so anything that could have happened to her would have great consequences in this and maybe other worlds.”

That made a lot of sense now that Love stopped to think about it. Maybe that was why Setsuna felt so calm about the whole thing. She was sure the guys were okay, so Love would cling to the hope behind that idea and wait for the moment to fight again. If things started to get crazy in the city or other magic kingdoms, then they would know for sure something had happened to Chiffon. While nothing happened, everything would be fine.

She needed to keep up her spirits up as was her wont to do.

“We're going to get our friends back, aren't we?” Love asked without taking her eyes from the sky.

“I am sure. But we won't be able to do it on our own, we need to fight all together,” Setsuna replied with a little smile.

Love could finally feel her happiness returning and she hugged Setsuna tightly, planting playful kisses on the other girl's cheek. She draped an arm around Setsuna's neck and raised her free arm to the sky.

“We'll do it! We'll beat them!” Love exclaimed.

Setsuna nodded and then pinched Love's cheek, freeing herself from the hold.

“The bell is about to ring, let's go back to the classroom,” said Setsuna calmly.

“Eh? I don't wanna, we still have a few minutes, I want to spend them with you,” Love reproached her, holding her in her arms.

“Loser cleans the winner's room,” smiled the other girl.

“Deal!”

They made it back to the classroom, only to be scowled by a few teachers for running in the halls. At least Love wasn't so lifeless anymore, and that was what mattered in the end.
Chapter 6:
Forever in your arms (Part 2)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

After class, Miki made her way back home the long way, hoping the walk could help her calm down her thoughts. She went through messages on her cellphone and couldn't help smiling seeing several messages from Momoka cheering on for her, including a couple telling her that the magazine people loved the photos and the next publication would be a sure success. As she walked she bumped on Inori, who was pretty down herself.

“Hey,” was the model's simple greeting.

“Hello, Miki-chan,” replied the girl with her usual sweet smile, even if had dimmed a little.

“You should cheer up,” she said, putting a hand over her shoulder. “If we fight like usual, then we will get them back. Worrying will get us nothing, right?”

“Miki-chan...” Inori whispered, a little surprised at her friend's words.

“We have to take care of this soon, I don't plan to work with Kurumi Momoka in such dangerous conditions. And remember, we still have to interrogate Love about 'that'...” she immediately smiled conspiratorially.

Inori started to smile a little in relief and soon her smile turned more sincere and natural.

“You're right, we have to finish with this fight as soon as possible. We also have to get Nagisa-san and Honoka-san back, and all of our friends,” she said with a recovered expression.

“That's the spirit!”

“Aaand I really want to interrogate Love-chan, although I think we will get more information and juicy details if we go first with Setsuna-chan.”

Both girls shared a happy laugh and kept on walking back home. They would achieve nothing with their worry, it was better if they kept their hope up and the energies to fight with everything they had.

------------------

It was early afternoon in Kibougahana and Yuri was making her way to the greenhouse. Momoka was busy at the agency that week so she would get to see her later, Yuri had her homework ready and one of these days they would get together later that week to help her with the school work. That said, she still had her fair share of amorous messages the model kept sending to her cellphone.

Yuri didn't know if she should be thankful of paranoid about the week Black and White had given them before the fight.

She was restless, not only because of Kaoruko's and the fairies' fate, but for the whole situation in general. She wanted to do some private investigation on her own, but before making her move she needed some intel about her enemies. From what she had managed to puzzle out everything started the day of the festival held in Nozomi and her group's school, so if somebody could give her a clue about how to investigate about Misumi Nagisa and Yukishiro Honoka, she needed to contact Karen.

She met Tsubomi, Erika and Itsuki in the greenhouse, but she didn't let them in her plan. It was possible she was playing a little the role of the lone hero, but she felt it was her duty as the senior member to provide every bit of security to her younger partners. While they were doing some maintenance around the greenhouse, Yuri excused herself to leave earlier and contact Karen.

“Ah, Yuri-san!” came the other girl's voice through the magical device. “What's the matter?”

“Could you give me any info you have on Black and White?” she paused for a moment before correcting herself. “That is to say, their civilian identities.”

“I was just looking into that myself. I managed to come with some copies of the festival documents and I think I have some solid information, but...” Karen's tone suddenly became cautions, “What are you planning to do, Yuri-san?”

“Some investigation on my own. I won't looking for problems or anything like that, I just want to know more about our enemy. Don't tell the others, if they follow me, or a larger group shows up, everything could turn dangerous.”

“Understood.”

After a moment Yuri had enough information to make her move. Both girls were in freshmen in the female section of Verone's High school. Misumi Nagisa was an official member of the Lacrosse team and helped several other sport clubs. Yukishiro Honoka was member of the Science club, a true genius in several areas, sciences in specific. Both were awfully popular too.

Next day, once classes were over she told her friends she had field homework and made her way straight to Wakabadai, Black's and White's district. It took her only an hour to reach and found a very busy and, if she had to admit it, beautiful city. She had the address of Verone and was ready to check the place when her stomach demanded to be fed. She was embarrassed with herself, but she was starving and the aroma of takoyaki in the area wasn't helping.

She surrendered to the basic need and asked for an order. Luckily there were free tables so she took seat while she waited. She noticed there were a few students with a copper colored uniform sitting on the next table, according to Karen's descriptions that was Verone's uniform.

“Sorry for the wait, here's your order!” said a clear and happy voice. It was a slim and blond girl with green eyes. “Enjoy.”

“Thank you very much,” Yuri replied with a smile.

A mature voice came from the truck; it belonged to a brown haired girl who handed the blond girl a pair of orders and asked her to take it to the pair from Verone.

“Thanks, Kujo-san,” said one of the girls, the tall one with the ponytails.

“By the way, by the way, by the way,” said her friend, a small girl with short hair. “Kujo-san, if you see Nagisa, tell her she forgot her notebook,” she handed said book.

“Ah, thank you! I'll give it to her when she stops by. Honoka-san took her to the library to study a little, so they will probably made a stop before we close.”

“It's all Nagisa's fault for saying she was happy with seventy points in her test!” shouted the brown haired woman from within the van.

While the three girls giggled about a private joke, Yuri remained quiet listening to everything that was being said. These were Black's and White's friends, and by the familiar and relaxed way they were talking about them, they hadn't noticed anything out of the ordinary about them. She waited a little longer, waiting for the best moment to interrupt their chat and find some more.

“But her grades have improved since she met her, so Honoka can torture her with study whenever she wants,” the girl with the ponytails said, very amused.

“Sure, sure, sure, having a partner like Yukishiro-san, the Queen of Knowledge, has its disadvantages and now Nagisa has to deal with it,” laughed the short haired girl. “As long as she passes and Nagisa remains in the team, I won't complain.”

Yuri took a deep breath.

“Yukishiro-san?” she mused out loud, interrupting the conversation. “I heard about her in a festival that took place last week, her club won the first place in the Science contest.”

The owner of the restaurant and the three other girls stared for a moment. Yuri suddenly felt a far more intense look from the blond girl but when their eyes met, the blond girl quickly blushed in embarrassment and looked down. Yuri could feel a very peculiar aura from that girl.

“That's right, that's right, that's right!” the short haired girl replied, pretty excited. “Yukishiro-san is the number one when it comes about science!”

“I'm also part of my high school’s science club, but I couldn't attend the festival myself,” she lied seamlessly. “When I heard about her project,” she thanked Karen's detailed information, “I was very interested and wanted to find more about it.”

“There is no activity in the club today, but you can stop by tomorrow if you want to. Out science club is very friendly to the visitors,” replied the taller girl.

“I would love to,” Yuri smiled.

“Kujo-san, tell Yukishiro-san to expect visits tomorrow,” said the girl with the ponytails.

“Never mind, here she comes!” shouted the short haired girl. “Yukishiro-san!”

Yuri felt a chill crawling her skin, like a bucket of icy water dumped on her. The pair of girls smiled, the blond girl looked a little nervous, and the owner of the cafe just lazily looked on.

“Ah, Honoka, did she convince you to eat something?” asked Akane with a wide smile.

“To tell the truth, I was a little hungry and we both voted for takoyaki, but I lost the rock-paper-scissor so I got to pick up the food,” Honoka replied with a sweet tone.

“Six order coming!” Akane exclaimed. “But since Nagisa has passed her appetite to you, let's make that eight!”

“Yukishiro-san, you have a visitor, this girl wants to know more about your science project from last week,” said the girl with the ponytails.

Yuri gathered every ounce of courage and she looked at Honoka. The other girl smiled calmly at her.

“Yukishiro Honoka at your service,” the black haired girl introduced herself with a kind smile.

“Ah- Tsukikage Yuri,” she replied immediately.

“Hikari-san, Nagisa asked me for some of those chocolate and strawberry drinks,” she told the blond girl, “she specifically asked that you made them, she loves how you do it.”

“Okay, coming right away!”

“Can we chat on the way, Tsukikage-san?” asked Honoka with a seemingly calm tone, but to Yuri it was an arctic chill.

“Of course.”

A few minutes later Honoka and Yuri left the local. The former carrying the takeout, the latter not knowing what to say. Yukishiro's Honoka's presence was strange, overwhelming and a little heavy. She hadn't noticed before, not having a chance to be close to the other girl and feel the aura.

“You are not playing the role of the lone hero, are you Cure Moonlight?” Honoka asked with a smile.

“No, although I hadn't expect to find any of you so soon.”

“Ah, a private investigation then?” she asked but she continued before Yuri could reply. “That's fair I suppose. Although, with your skill and power, you could easily finish me right now,” she proposed with a smile.

Yuri stopped and stared. Honoka was giving her a smile that bordered on the macabre, and her aura felt even more potent by the moment. The taller girl clenched her fist and faced the overwhelming presence head on, recovering her conviction.

“I can hear plenty of confidence in your words,” Yuri said with a hardened and cold look on her face.

“That's because I'm confident. I can't transform without Nagisa, and it would be very easy for you to transform and finish me off. You could even go after Nagisa later and then you could say good bye to all your problems.”

“Not until we know what happened to Kaoruko-san and the rest of the magical beings.”

“So, that's what you came for... I can't give you all the details, but...” she reached into her pocket and pulled out a little red handkerchief, “Maybe this will be of some consolation for Cure Dream's team. It was the only thing we could save...”

Yuri's eyes opened wide like saucers when she remembered the handkerchief belonged to Syrup, the messenger from Palmier Kingdom.

“If anything happened to Kaoruko-san, I'll-!” Yuri shouted, throwing a punch right at Honoka's face.

The other girl smiled after a moment of silence, seeing the fist stopping a couple millimeters off her face.

“Do it,” Honoka egged her. “Don't lose your chance, do it!”

“You're not worthy. Not now. We will wait until the agreed time and we will fight then, I'll reserve this fist for you, Cure White.”

“I'll be eagerly waiting, Cure Moonlight. As for Cure Flower and Infinity, they will be the last ones. Once we finish you all, they will be the last ones to follow you to the other world. I'm sorry about the magical creatures, but according to the plans, they had to die first,” Honoka informed with complete tranquility.

Yuri clenched her first and was very tempted to resort to violence, transform and finish her off, but her instinct stopped her. She felt unable to raise her hand against Honoka again. Honoka smiled when she noticed her trembling in impotence.

“I washed the blood off this morning, it was a messy job,” she whispered, and this time Yuri did strike her, a loud and strong blow that drew blood from Honoka's mouth. However, the smaller girl simply took a couple steps back, smiling at the sight of the red droplets falling to the ground.

“You two are the worst!” Yuri shouted in anger she pulled out her Heart Seed. “Give me one reason why I should kill you right now!”

“Do it. Do it while you can, I know you can hit harder than that.”

The taller girl started to chant her transformation phrase but she stopped as she felt a new energy nearby. She looked down the street and saw Misumi Nagisa approaching at a slow pace. Yuri put some distance between them while Honoka brushed the blood off her lips with her hand.

“A lone hero”? Nagisa asked once she was close. “And starting a fight, I see. I think we will have to do something about you, Cure Moonlight.”

“She didn't do anything, Nagisa,” Honoka smiled, reaching out bloodied fingers to brush against Yuri's cheek. “Let the darkness shroud your Pretty Cure instincts, fight with everything, Cure Moonlight,” Honoka whispered, looking at Yuri in the eyes.

“You're insane,” the other girl murmured, wiping her cheek immediately. “We agreed to follow your rules and that's what we will do. We will mate at the place on the note. I won't give you the pleasure of a fight right now.”

“Whatever, suit yourself,” Nagisa said, taking the bag with the takoyaki. “Tell your friends that they can still save Cure Flower and Chiffon. If you can beat us, of course.”

“We will, I promise.”

Yuri left the area in unsteady steps, and Nagisa and Honoka went back to the latter's house to continue studying as if nothing had happened. Nagisa only made a point of checking Honoka's cheek and let her take her hand so their physical contact could heal her. They heard hurried steps behind them and they turned around to see Hikari catching up with them, exhausted by the race. They smiled at her as soon as she was in front of them.

“Hikari, what's wrong”?

“She was one of them, wasn't she?” asked the blond.

“Yes, Cure Moonlight,” Honoka replied calmly.

“Nagisa-san, Honoka-san, is it really okay to go so far for this?” she insisted with a sorrowful look.

“Calm down, Hikari, everything will turn out okay,” Nagisa replied, gently patting Hikari on the head. “We just have to make sure they hate us so this can work.”

“But...”

“Don't worry, Hikari-san, we know what we are doing.”

“The blond girl said no more and just nodded, she said her good byes and made her way back to the Takoyaki restaurant. Nagisa and Honoka continued on their way back home.

“Did it hurt?” Nagisa asked, pocking Honoka on the cheek.

“Not as much as when I hit myself with your lacrosse net. That did hurt.”

Both girls shared an amused laugh and continued with total tranquility.

--------------

Yuri made her way into the train that would take her back home, sank on a seat and hide her face in her hands. She was furious, sad and feeling an overwhelming impotency.

How was she going to tell the girls that all the magical creatures but Chiffon were all dead?
