Hikaru thinks about how to awaken her own Twinkle Imagination, being the only Cure to remain to do so. Once day during a walk in the rain with Lala, they meet their classmates who all start asking Lala about her home planet and the Rocket, so Hikaru uses this as an excuse to go off on her own. Hikaru comes to the Observatory and speaks witht Mr Ryo, admitting she's been feeling upset lately as all her friends seem to be moving on without her. Mr Ryo tells Hikaru that its normal to feel that way, before telling her about the star Deneb in the constellation of Cygnus and that it will eventually become the pole star but continue to shine the same. Hikaru heads home but is confronted by Kappard, who uses his own twisted imagination to transform his staff and attacks Hikaru, managing to beat her down before the other Cures arrive. Kappard tells the story of how his planet was destroyed because its citizens thought they could get along with those from other planets but ended up being taken for granted, believing its impossible for different planets to coexist with each other. Lala tells Kappard that he's wrong and that her classmates accepted her when they found out the truth and that Hikaru is fine the way she is. Hikaru suddenly realises what Mr Ryo was referring to with the story of Deneb, and tells Kappard that despite things changing, she'll continue to shine on her own, awakening her Twinkle Imagination. The Cures manage to defeat Kappard, but he is transported away before Hikaru can reconcile with him.
