So I was awake at 3 o clock this morning, not able to sleep, becuase I am sick. So I felt I should write something. And the idea came from a dream I ahd a little while ago, in my state of unconciousness, last week maybe. I had fainted or something while with my boyfriend and he took me home and stayed with me until I woke up becuase my parents weren't home. So yeah that's kinda where this came from. It was the weirdest dream ever. I left the talking zebra with the pruple beard out of the story.

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Tokyo Mew Mew

Enjoy!

She felt wobbly on her feet. Her throat hurt to much to voice her insecurities. Looking around bright colours blurred her vision and the ground beneath her feet seemed to heave up and down. When they didn't, she looked around again, taking in all that was before her. Exotic animals roamed around the plain. She saw A lion with a rainbow main, a flying crocodile. She saw trees. One that spun. Bushes that would have normally been stationary, jumped around. Looking to the sky she noticed the clouds. On the first one, was a man shouting "Full speed ahead!"

"This is so weird…" She was astonished at the fact that she could speak. She tried walking. No wobbling. Listening, she heard her name. Following the sound, she noticed little strawberries dancing in circles around her feet, chanting her name. "Ichigo! Ichigo! Ichigo!"

Suddenly the lion she had seen just moments before, gracefully landed in front of her. "Miss Ichigo," the way he spoke her name made her sound like Royalty. "Come, I shall show you the joys of the magical land."

Hesitantly, she climbed onto the back if the lion, gripping his mane. She felt her stomach lurch as the lion jumped into the air. He can fly?!

As they flew over the plains, Everything stopped, even the clouds. They waved at her smiling. When the lion landed at the bank of what seemed to be an oasis filled with fish of some kind. Feeling excited she hopped from stone to stone that stood above the water, until one of her feet slipped.

But then someone was there, grabbing her hand. He had caught her and swung her up into his arms. Tipping her head back to look at him she tried to make out who it was but she could only see stars cart wheeling across the sky overhead. Leaning into the person, she let herself be taken by the strong arms that held her. Inhaling, she knew immediately who held her.

It was him. The love of her life. That one that had saved her so many times. The only one that had ever been able to break through all her strong fronts, and lift her up her from her depths of despair.

When a strand of her hair brushed her face, she opened her eyes. But everything was blurred, and it hurt to try and focus. Closing them again, she let the feeling of his arms and the sense of security steal over her and she slept.

Groggily, she opened her eyes, groaning. Whoa…

"So… Sleeping Beauty finally awakes, from her deathly slumber." Turning, she saw Ryou. A small smile formed on his face when she looked at him, he stifled a laugh. She looked like death warmed over. Gently he put his hand on her cheek and kissed her forehead lightly.

Reaching up she held his hand. "Ichigo?" Ryou asked as he sat on the edge of the bed.

"In all the chaos, you're always there…. Aren't you?" She asked, quietly as her eyes closed.
