'Where were you guys?' Kelsey asks as Rascal and Chloe suddenly appear back out of nowhere.

'Had fun together?' April teases.

Chloe looks worriedly at Rascal. He seems really upset and worried. He closes his eyes and seems to think of something.

'What's wrong, Rascal?' Emily asks. Then the other three also notice.

'Are you okay?' Chloe lays her hand on Rascal's shoulder.

Rascal scares and makes a reflex that scares Chloe.

'No...' he says and walks backwards, with a scared face full of pain. He throws his head back and starts to whimper. 'He's going to kill me... No single piece of me will be left!'

'Rascal?!' the girls look at him with worry.

Rascal seems like he is about to break down and Chloe looks at the others. 'Do you understand anything? He didn't tell me anything.'

The rest shake their heads.

'Rascal, what's wrong? Please tell us.'

'It's Emperor Nogo!' Rascal cries anxiously. 'Those three villains said they have found a way to bring him back to existence! And I just realised that he will tear me apart because I betrayed him!'

'WHAT?!' the other girls say shocked and Candy jumps out of Emily's bag too.

'Is Emperor Nogo back?!' Candy yells.

'I am terrified!' Rascal whimpers and the girls can see the expression of fear and pain on his face and also fear sweat. 'I am in big trouble! Nogo will murder me...'

'He won't!' Chloe says. 'He couldn't even beat us when the Glitter Pacts were broken!'

'It's because of the Miracle Jewel,' April says.

'And teamwork!' Kelsey says.

'Friendship!' Lily says.

'Love,' Emily says. 'Nothing can beat that, Rascal!'

'You don't understand...' Rascal whines. 'Your powers are indeed strong, but I am connected to Nogo...'

'In what way?'

'I don't even know myself...' Rascal looks at them with fear. 'I just have it as long as I remember... I don't know much about my past... Nogo took care of me and made me the joker I am now...'

'What do you mean by "I am now"?' Kelsey frowns. 'You are on our side, right?!'

'I don't know anymore!' Rascal runs away and bursts out of tears.

'Rascal!' Chloe shouts, but her boyfriend is already gone.

'Nogo...' Emily says shocked. 'Nogo is coming back!'

'We will beat him again!' April says.

'And this time really for once and all!' Lily says.

'But can we trust Rascal?' Kelsey asks. 'He is acting strange.'

'Ofcourse we can!' Chloe falls out. 'Stop with this distrust, Kelsey!'

'I am just saying that it worries me,' Kelsey says.

'There's no need for that!' Chloe says. 'Didn't you see the pain in his face?! And besides, he's my boyfriend now! I am going after him!'

And so Chloe is also gone. She seeks Rascal and finds him, pressed firmly against the wall and he has raised his knees and put his arms around it. Only his mask and jester hair is visible and she sees that he has closed his eyes.

'Rascal...' Chloe sits down next to him and lays her hand on his shoulder. 'Everything will be okay.'

'It won't, Breeze...'

'I know that you fear him, but we won't let you get hurt!' Chloe wraps her arm around him and pulls him closer. 'I promise you this.'

Rascal shakes his head. 'It won't be...'

'Please Rasc...'

'Like I told you, I have a connection with Nogo!' Rascal stands up. 'Be realistic, Breeze! I am a villain! We both know that this, us, is not going to work!'

'What did you just say?' Chloe looks at him and starts crying.

Rascal is also hurt and the nice feelings turn into heavy ones again.

I can't do this! he thinks. I love Breeze and I have the right to make my own decisions. Nogo only used me! Only for my powers!

'Breeze...' Worriedly Rascal kneels down and puts his hand on her cheek. 'I am sorry for saying that. I love you more than anything or anyone else. I didn't mean what I said, the fear is driving me crazy. I will help you to defeat my old master. Even with this connection.'

Chloe looks up with tears rolling down her face. The expression on Rascal's face is proving that he is telling the truth.

'I am sorry.' Rascal wipes her tears away and then hugs her. Chloe sighs relieved and wraps her arms around her boyfriend.

'I love you...' Rascal whispers.

'I love you too.'

Rascal lets loose, stands up and also helps her up. 'Let's go back to the others now.' He gives her a quick kiss, grabs her hand and takes her inside again.

'There you are!' Emily says. 'Are you both alright?'

Rascal nods and wraps his arm around Chloe's waist. 'I am sorry for acting that way. It's just shocking to know about my master...'

Kelsey nods. She doesn't want to upset Chloe.

'I am very scared of him,' Rascal says, 'because of my connection. I am afraid I might turn evil again due to his manipulation. And because he may otherwise kill me.' He looks at them. 'I don't want that to happen.'

'None of that will happen!' Emily says. 'You can count on us!'

'Thank you.' Rascal suddenly frowns. 'They're here. I can feel their bad energy.'

'Everything is going well.' Moonkiller grins and he, Vlob and Anadil are outside. 'Let's just wait for those dumb idiots to come!'

'There they are!' Vlob says when the girls and the joker run towards them.

'We know what you are up to!' Kelsey says. 'But we will stop your evil plans!'

'What are you talking about?' Vlob asks sanctimonious.

'I told them that you are going to bring Emperor Nogo back to existence!' Rascal says.

'You did?' Vlob grins. 'How mean of you. Oh well, looks like we just have to deal with that.'

'Makes it a lot more interesting, huh?' Anadil grins.

'Oh yes it does,' Moonkiller says and laughs.

'What is wrong with you guys?' Kelsey asks. 'Why are you acting so weird?'

'Are we?' Anadil asks and srugs.

'I have no idea,' Vlob says.

'Maybe we are,' Moonkiller grins. 'But maybe we don't.'

'Are you acting weird?' Vlob asks Moonkiller.

'I don't know, am I, Anadil?'

'No idea. Vlob, is he acting weird?'

'I don't know. Are you?'

'It's Glitter time, girls!' Emily says and gets her Glitter Pact. 'Glitter Force Make-over!'

'Good. Attack us. Stop us from bringing Nogo back!' Moonkiller screams full of pleasure.

'You bet we will!' Lucky says. 'Come on girls!'

They jump up high in the sky and Rascal joins them.

'Time for Royal Mode!' the girls say. 'We will show them what meant the end of Emperor Nogo! Let's look if they are able to survive that! They should not underestimate us!'

'I will make sure you get to hit them!' Rascal throws cards at the three, which explode and the three fall down.

Wait what? Rascal thinks. That was too easy. They didn't even try to dodge it! They're up to something. They were already acting really weird!

'Phoenix Power Attack! Miracle Rainbow Burst!' the girls yell.

'Wait girls, DON'T!' Rascal yells, but it's already too late.

While a giant beams shoots towards the three, they are getting their two black hearts.

'Bright Love!' Moonkiller says.

'Fierce Fire!' Vlob says.

'Icy Jokes!' Anadil says. One of her hearts is already coloured purple, the rest is still black.

When the huge beam hits the three, the other five hearts are suddenly coloured too. Pink, orange, yellow, green and blue.

'Thank you so much for this!' the three say and laugh hysterically. Then a very, very bright light appears and blinds the girls and the joker.

'We need to get out of here!' Rascal yells. He tries to get away, but it's too late.

The light suddenly becomes dark and the three laugh at them. 'You are coming with us!'

Moonkiller suddenly dissapears with Lucky and Peace.

'And you two are coming with me,' Vlob says charming and dissapears with Sunny and Spring.

'Last but not least, these love birds!' Anadil dissapears and so does Breeze.

'No! Breeze!' Rascal tries to reach his girlfriend, but she's gone, just like Anadil. And then Rascal dissapears too.
