== Episode ==
King Mirage talks to his army to remind them of their purpose; he is conquering everything to turn the world miserable. They cheer for his and resume their current plans.
Meanwhile, Power Rider Aquila fights a strong Darkaite when Namakelder appears. Frightened, Aquila runs away and is scolded by Ribbon, concluding that she is the princess and needs to defeat Namakelder to save everyone. She agrees and blindly charges forward to use her Final Vent; which fails. She is hit by the Saiark and de-transforms.
Just as Nia is about to be killed, Power Rider Kitsunea runs in to attack it using her Final Vent, saving Nia by destroying the Darkaite. The human victim thanks Kitsunea for saving him. Nia makes an attempt to thank Sophie for saving her, but Sophie angrily threatens to never forgive her because of what she did. Sophie storms off, leaving Nia alone to cry.
The next day, Bex Hopewell and her boyfriend Felix Dane celebrate the good day. Felix mentions that lately he has been going on about the Power Riders, and Bex claims that because the Power Riders will always be there to save them from the Darkaites, she is happy and has a lot of trust in them.
Meanwhile, Nia tries to overcome her sadness after she gripes about it. Azul, the deity of the Blue Sky Kingdom, comes through a nearby mirror and gives her an Advent Deck, explaining that it will transform a person into another Power Rider. Nia gets up and prepares to leave in order to find the people, but unsure of how to go about it, she transforms, flies to the top of a tall building and detransforms.
Jake Sun arrives home to find his mother and asks about dinner. After she mentions making cream stew, Jake offers to purchase the ingredients, although she insists that he rests since he just got home from school. Jake claims he will be fine though, and takes off. 
"Iris! Look out!"
As this is going on, Nia decides that in order to find these 2 new Riders, she will throw the decks and whoever it hits/whoever catches them shall be the people she choose. She throws them with as much strength as possible, nails Jake with the Aquila Advent Deck while the blank Advent Deck lands in his hands.
In a panic, Nia hurriedly gets down to trail behind him and learn more about him after seeing Drafurnus passing through Jake and the Contract card, turning the blank Advent Deck into the Draceus Advent Deck. Nia calls it amazing and resumes walking.
After a while, Nia deduces that Jake is really nice and cheerful. She observes him as he gets ingredients for the cream stew, helps various people, and interacts with his friends. 
At first, Iris watches Nia as she freezes; but she is quickly taken by her cute, girly clothing- which is enough for Nia to open up and begin to chatter about it's various features. She then comments on Jake's own clothes by asking him if he doesn't like to dress up, and Jake explains that he tends to go for comfortable clothing that's easier to move in; and he doesn't think very flashy clothing really suits him anyway. Nia claims that Jake probably just hasn't found the right thing yet, and he should keep trying since he might enjoy it when he finally does. She explains how much fashion means to her and she and Jake are able to bond over this as Jake asks her for help learning more about fashion and outfit design.
The teens formally introduce themselves to each other while Soarwing swoops in from behind Iris to introduce herself as Iris's Advent Beast. At first Jake is surprised; only to express shock as he finds out that Nia is also the Princess of the Blue Sky Kingdom and eventually its Queen. He is super-excited by such a twist though, and Drafurno asks that he becomes a very good friend with Nia. She agrees, and Nia announces that Jake already became a Power Rider: Power Rider Draceus.
Meanwhile, Namakelder happens to find Piper walking down a pathway. He notices how happy she is to be wearing her special present hat and he traps her into a mirror to summon a Darkaite.
As everyone in the area runs away in fright, Jake, Iris and Nia are alerted by Drafurno of the evil presence and they see more of the mold appearing in the area. Jake asks Namekelder why he targeted Piper as he looks at the mirror in shock and he informs them that he got annoyed by her happiness. Iris transforms into Power Rider Aquila and makes an attempt to fight the Darkaite but this proves futile quickly. The Darkaite goes to finish her when Jake suddenly runs in front of her and tells them to leave her alone. He then uses his left hand to hold out his Advent Deck to a mirror, which materializes a V-Buckle on his waist. He then shouts "Henshin!" and inserts his Advent Deck into the V-Buckle, transforming him into Power Rider Draceus. He then runs into the mirror with Aquila.
"I'm gonna have to defeat that Darkaite in the mirror realm before you can do anything."
