Scene 1 – Arrival in Porella City]

  Kouchu and the brawlers return to Porella City after their trip to the Clevergreen City Library. The city is alive with energy, and the streets are bustling as usual. But today, there’s something different in the air—there’s a buzz about the Splitterie Cup, a highly anticipated event that takes place every year in Porella.

  Kouchu (curiously):

  “What’s this Splitterie Cup everyone’s talking about?”

  Shauna (excited):

  “It’s a huge competition! The best brawlers and competitors from all over come to battle it out. But… it’s an all-girls event.”

  Sakuro (raising an eyebrow):

  “All-girls? That’s odd. Why would they make it exclusive?”

  Kouchu (distracted):

  “So… no guys allowed, huh?”

  Kouchu’s face falls slightly as he notices a group of excited girls gathering around a large banner that reads: “Splitterie Cup – Girls-Only Tournament.” His eyes narrow with determination.

  Kouchu (muttering to himself):

  “I’m not letting this stop me from getting that medal.”

  ?

  [Scene 2 – Seeking Help from Elliott]

  Later that day, Kouchu heads to Elliott’s house, hoping to come up with a plan to get into the Splitterie Cup. Elliott, a childhood friend of Kouchu, greets him with a knowing smile, having already heard about the competition.

  Elliott (playfully):

  “So, the Splitterie Cup, huh? You want in, but there’s that pesky gender rule.”

  Kouchu looks frustrated, pacing back and forth.

  Kouchu (grumbling):

  “Yeah, I just need to get that medal. But there’s no way they’ll let me in.”

  Elliott (smirking):

  “Well… I might have an idea. You know, I’m pretty good with makeup and cosmetics. What if you could become a girl for the day?”

  Kouchu freezes, staring at Elliott with wide eyes.

  Kouchu (awkwardly):

  “You want me to… crossdress?”

  Elliott (grinning):

  “Exactly! With my skills, you’ll be the picture of perfection. Just think about it. It’s a foolproof plan. They won’t even know it’s you!”

  Kouchu looks uncertain, but the thought of finally getting his hands on the medal pushes him to consider the idea. He sighs, knowing it’s the only option left.

  Kouchu (reluctantly):

  “Alright, let’s do it. But I swear, if this doesn’t work, you owe me big time.”

  ?

  [Scene 3 – Transformation into “Kelly”]

  Later that evening, in Elliott’s room, Kouchu sits nervously in front of a mirror. Elliott, with expert hands, applies makeup and styles Kouchu’s hair. The transformation is nothing short of impressive.

  Elliott (smiling as he works):

  “Don’t worry, Kouchu. You’ll look so convincing that even your mom wouldn’t recognize you.”

  Kouchu’s face turns red, embarrassed by the whole situation. When Elliott finishes, he steps back, admiring his work.

  Elliott (grinning):

  “Perfect. You’re now Kelly. Who wouldn’t believe that?”

  Kouchu hesitates, looking at his reflection. He’s been transformed into a completely different person, his hair styled into a cute bob, makeup applied expertly, and an outfit that screams “girly.” He looks… different.

  Kouchu (sighing):

  “I can’t believe I’m doing this.”

  ?

  [Scene 4 – The Splitterie Cup – Entering the Competition]

  The next morning, Kouchu, now fully transformed into Kelly, heads to the Splitterie Cup arena with Elliott and his friends in tow. They approach the entrance, where a strict-looking official is checking the competitors.

  Official (raising an eyebrow at Kelly):

  “Name?”

  Kouchu (in a high-pitched, faltering voice):

  “Uh… Kelly… Kelly… um… Taylor.”

  Elliott gives a quick thumbs-up from behind, signaling Kouchu to keep it together. Kouchu, despite feeling awkward, pulls himself together and walks confidently into the arena.

  The event is crowded with excited competitors, all the best female brawlers, who are gearing up for the tournament. Kouchu, disguised as Kelly, nervously looks around. His heart races as he realizes the full extent of his plan.

  ?

  [Scene 5 – The Accidental Reveal]

  Kouchu makes his way to the competition area, blending in with the others. He’s so focused on staying calm that he doesn’t notice his waistband slipping slightly. The girls nearby start whispering to each other, some even staring curiously at him.

  It isn’t until Kouchu stretches out a little too much to throw a practice Crystal Ball that his disguise is almost blown. His wig tilts just enough, and his voice falters as he nearly trips over himself.

  Girl 1 (whispering):

  “Wait… did you see that? She… looks a little too familiar.”

  Girl 2 (narrowing her eyes):

  “Yeah… I swear I’ve seen her before.”

  In a panic, Kouchu quickly adjusts his wig and puts on an exaggerated, high-pitched voice as he turns to the girls.

  Kouchu (nervously):

  “Oh, uh… just… a little nervous! Heh heh…”

  To his surprise, the girls chuckle and seem to think nothing more of it. They continue on with their preparations.

  ?

  [Scene 6 – Winning the Medal]

  The tournament begins, and Kouchu, still disguised as Kelly, participates in several rounds. His skills in battle are unmatched, even though he’s still adjusting to the uncomfortable nature of his disguise. Roaracryst, who is his Crystal Monster partner for the day, is by his side, offering silent support.

  Kouchu, despite the awkwardness of his situation, manages to win several rounds, impressing everyone with his ability to command Roaracryst with precision and strategy. Eventually, he faces the final opponent and, after a thrilling battle, wins the Splitterie Cup Medal.

  Kouchu (panting, with a nervous smile):

  “I… I did it. I actually did it…”

  He stares at the medal in his hand, knowing that this victory—while sweet—was built on a very questionable decision.

  ?

  [Scene 7 – The Reveal and Escape]

  After the competition ends, Kouchu, still in disguise, sneaks out of the arena. But as he exits, he bumps into someone—the official from earlier.

  Official (smiling):

  “Well done, Kelly… though you seem oddly familiar.”

  Kouchu freezes, his heart racing. The official steps closer, examining his face.

  Official (grinning):

  “Tell me, are you… Kouchu?”

  Kouchu’s face goes pale, but before he can respond, the official winks and pats him on the shoulder.

  Official:

  “Don’t worry, I won’t blow your cover. You earned it.”

  Kouchu sighs in relief, almost collapsing in exhaustion.

  Kouchu (exasperated):

  “That was way too close…”

  He quickly rushes back to his friends, who have been waiting for him outside the arena. As he removes the wig, the brawlers can’t help but laugh.

  Shauna (laughing):

  “You looked so ridiculous! I thought for sure you were going to get caught!”

  Sakuro (smirking):

  “You pulled it off, Kouchu… but never again.”

  Kouchu grins sheepishly, holding the medal high.

  Kouchu (laughing):

  “Let’s just say I won’t be doing that again anytime soon… but hey, I got the medal!”

  ?
