Chapter 1: A Disappearance

Hyperguy sat in his study, contemplating what course of action he should take. It should be about time for it to strike, he thought. I sense growing danger around her. I must warn them before it's too late.

He got up from his desk and walked to the bedroom. There Cassandra sat in front of her mirror brushing her hair. He came up and placed his arms lovingly around her shoulders. "How are things, my dear?" he asked her.

"Absolutely boring," she answered. "Things were far more interesting when I was just your girlfriend, but now that we're married, my life has gone back to the way it was before I met you." She turned around and looked her husband in the eye. "What happened, Hyperguy? We used to have so much fun together, like when we stopped Entropy from taking over the Looking Glass Dimension, or when we stayed at that hotel full of crazy people. Why can't we do stuff like that anymore?"

"You couldn't have picked a better time to ask that," Hyperguy said as he smiled. He stood up and walked to the closet. He opened it and pulled out his diamond studded mace. "Come, Cassandra. There is one more adventure to be had."

Cassandra couldn't contain her joy. "Where are we going this time?"

"Japan," Hyperguy answered. "To be specific, Tokyo. To be more specific, Café Mew Mew, headquarters of the Mew Project and the superhero team Tokyo Mew Mew."

"OH NO, I'm going to be late for work again!" Ichigo screamed as she run out of her home. She ran as fast as she could. "This is not good. Not good at all." And then, it happened again. She was moving faster or the world was moving slower; the light changed precisely when she needed it too. She made all the way to the café on time.

"That was weird. The last time that happened, it was the time I first met…"

"Hello, Ichigo."

She turned around. "Hyperguy."

There Hyperguy stood with hair of soil and eyes of leaves, and standing next to him was a young woman with ebony hair and fiery eyes.

The woman nuzzled up to Hyperguy. "Honey, aren't you going to introduce us."

"I was going to, dear," Hyperguy replied as he began to hold her in his arms, "It's just that you interrupted me." He then made eye contact with Ichigo. "Ichigo, this is my wife, Cassandra. Cassandra, this is Ichigo. I've helped her and her friends a few times."

"It's nice to meet you," Ichigo said.

"Nice to meet you too," Cassandra replied.

"Ichigo," Hyperguy said, "There is something I need to talk to your boss about. It concerns the safety of one of your friends."

"Is Quiche okay?" Ichigo asked.

"Quiche is fine. This time it concerns your friend Mint."

"Mint? Did something happened to her?"

"That is what I need to know. Cassandra and I came here to see if she came into work, and if so, protect her."

"Well I just got here myself," Ichigo said and her face filled with dread. "oh no, I'm probably late because I've been talking to you."

"Are you sure?" Hyperguy asked. "You might want to check your watch."

Ichigo looked to her amazement. The watch hadn't changed since the time she got there.

"Now my watch is broken."

"Silly girl," Cassandra said, "your watch isn't broken. Hyperguy slowed down time for you."

"That explains why I was on time," Ichigo said with a smile.

The three of them walked into the café. Everything seemed as usual.

"Shirogane," Ichigo said, "there's someone here to see you."

"Who could it possibly be?" Shirogane said as he walked in. "Oh, it's you, Hyperguy."

"Wait," Ichigo said confused, "you two know each other?"

"I told him where you were the last time we met," Hyperguy replied.

"Oh," Ichigo said.

"I'm sorry if I brought up a hard subject for you," Hyperguy said remorsefully.

"It's okay." Ichigo smiled.

"Can we get on with this?" Shirogane asked.

"Of course," Hyperguy said. "Shirogane, Is Mint here?"

"She's not here yet. Everyone's just coming in for work."

"Then we must find her," Hyperguy responded, "before it is too late."

"Sorry, Me, but it is already too late," a voice boomed as the room went black.

"What's going on?" Ichigo asked.

"It's him," Hyperguy answered as a figure materialized in the center, "Sherlac."

"Hello, Me," The figure said. He was in shape and form identical to Hyperguy, but his color was that of a negative photograph, and his eyes had a sense of malice.

"What have you done with Mint?" Ichigo demanded.

"Absolutely nothing," Sherlac answered, "yet." He began to cackle with insanity.

"I suppose that you aren't going to tell us where you have taken her," Hyperguy said.

"Of course not," the inverted image responded. "I'm not that stupid."

"You give her back, you big Meany," Ichigo demanded.

"You don't seem to realize," Sherlac replied, "just what I'm capable of." He failed his arms, and every table and chair was sent flying and shattered against the wall. He laughed madly and disappeared, with the lights coming back on.

"Hyperguy," Shirogane turned to the wise one, "Just who was that man, and why did he call you as 'Me'?"

"Because, Shirogane," Hyperguy answered, "he is me, a dark me, an inverted me, a me with the darkest qualities."

Dun! Dun! Dun!
