Storm Cover
Here is my first fanfiction!!
I don't really know what else to write because I don't have anything to say besides enjoy the new mew!
Disclaimer: I do not own TMM! I do own Bleuberri though! And Wind Crystal owns Kinomi! ((Chocolate and Berries))
I walked slowly down the sidewalk alone. Passing through a gang of boys beside a club, I heard one whisper to the other "Hey, dudes! Isn't that Zakuro Fujiwara?"
"Naw, man, that girl's not as hot. She doesn't have long hair anyway."
I walked a little faster with a sigh. Too many people mistake me for my elder sister, Zakuro. She's a famous model. I'm her sister, Bleuberri Yuma Fujiwara.
People are often blown away by our resemblance, if they care to look at Zakuro's young sibling that is. We are so different it's mind-blowing that we are even related. I'll list differences in physical form first. I'm 5 ft. 2 inches tall, have short raven black hair, and ice blue eyes. She is 5 ft. 7 inches tall, has dark ourple hair, and sapphire blue eyes. We do have the same basic body structure however. Here are the attitude characteristics. She is a faithful christian, quiet and a little mean. I'm don't have a religion, quiet, and honest (reasonably). I graduated High School before she did at age 15. I graduated at 9 years old.
But what do you care what our differences are? Let's get on with the story.
The sky was clouding up & thunder rumbled. I estemated the storm would be here in alittle over 3 minutes. I checked where I was for cover. And I'm not exactly dressed for rain today: a black tubetop, long boot cut jeans, & chunky belt buckle boots. All there was on the street was an old rusty metal bus stop and a frilly-looking pink cafe. I decided the pink cafe would be more lodgical for the amount of time I would be spending in cover. I unwillingly pounded to the cafe.
Just as I had feared. The cafe was girly and pink all over. A bell tinkled when I entered through the large doors. A girl shorter than I with red hair in a pink frilly dress appeared at once in front of me. "Hello! Welcome to Cafe Mew Mew! Would you like something for here or to go?"she said.
"I'll have something here." I said, starting to perfer the outside storm than in here.
"OK! Follow me!" she said. I followed her to a table in the corner. Noooo! My waitress is a preppy! I sat down and stared out the window as she walked around to bring other people their orders in the busy cafe. It was pouring rain outside and hailing.
There was a buzz of conversation in the room as other girls talked in low voices. Six girls in almost identical frilly dresses were serving. The girl in pink who had greeted me at the door seemed to be the buisiest of them all. Her feet never seemed to meet the floor. A really young girl in a yellow dress and blonde hair was doing acrobatic tricks on a ball bigger than she was. She didn't seem to be interested in waiting tables, but doing the money at the redgister she seemed to enjoy considering she did it with her feet. A timid looking girl in a dark green dres was waiting tables. She had grass green hair and glasses. A snobby girl in a navy blue gress was sitting at a table drinking tea, giving an order to the girl in pink every once in a while. She had sapphire blue hair in a strange bunlike hairdo. Another girl in a dark red dress and scarlett long hair was waiting tables and welcoming people. She seemed more... spacey than the others. I often saw her gaze into space or out a window. The last girl was just bringing out orders. She was in a light purple dress and had long dark purple hair.
I blinked in surprise. Zakuro's working in this frilly place. No way. But it was true. Zakuro, prissy loner Zakuro, was working in the frilliest cafe I had ever seen. "Hello again! My name's Ichigo! What would you like today?" said the waitress in pink. I'd been so preoccupied in looking around that I didn't see the red head pink girl sneak up behind me so I jumped. Ichigo peered into my face expectantly.
"I'll have a mint tea."
"Ok. It'll be right out."
She ran off and I looked around at the others. I watched the girl in blue. She would sip her tea and look around at the customers, watching one for no longer than half a minute. Her eyes finally found me and she watched me for the longest. I stared back at her. After about a minute and a half, she called the girl in green over to her. She started whispering in green-girl's ear. Green-girl looked over at me, her mouth slightly open. I looked away. I don't like seeing people googiling at me that way.
"E-excuse me." said a light, timid voice a minute or so later. I looked back around from the window and found myself looking into green girl's large blue eyes.
"Yes?"
"Are y-you Bleuberri F-fujiwara?"
"Yes. Why?"
"I-i'm Letuce Midorikawa."
"Oh yeah. You're the one who wrote to me about Forever Twilight."
"Y-yes. I also read Eternal Voids, it's s-sequel."
"Did you find it enjoyable?"
"Oh yes! I-i love t-that series v-very much."
"I'm writing the last one right now."
"W-when might it r-reach shelves?"
"Around October 31st."
"G-great. I-i'm looking forward to it."
"Hmph." said a voice from her right.
Blue girl was beside green-girl, arms crossed. "What?" I said to her.
"This is M-mint Aizawa, Bleuberri."
"The snobbish ballarina? I didn't know you worked here."
"Snobbish?"
"Yeah. On your autobiography, you're so full of yourself."
"I didn't write that."
"I still think you're full of yourself nonetheless."
"Why?!"
"Your aura."
"What?"
"Your energy, the glow or haze that surrounds you"
"What color is her aura, Bleuberri-san?" said Lettuce.
"Orange with a blue ring on the outside."
"What's goin' on, guys?" Ichigo was back.
"Bleuberri-san was just telling Mint her aura color."
"You're a psychic?" said Itchigo.
"Yes." I replied evasively.
"Cool. What's my aura color?"
"Pink with a red ring on the outside."
"Cool."
"W-what about m-mine?"
"A soft spring green with a gass green ring on the outside."
"Wow."
"Hmph! Let's go back to work." pouted Mint.
The three went off to their various places. I gazed back out the window. It was hailing harder than ever. A loud clatter sounded in front of me and i jumped again. I looked up to see Zakuro, staring at me. I returned her cold stare with as much intensity. She finally walked away without saying anything. You priss. I thought as she walked away.
I cautiously picked up the steaming mug of tea that was my order and sipped. It was wonderful. A perfect blend of mint and green tea. "Would you like anything else? Oh gosh! Sorry!" said Ichigo's high voice beside my ear. I had jumped and spilled my hot tea down the leg of my jeans.
"Ichigo." said a gentle male voice behind me. I turned and saw a handsome young man of about 19 or 20. He had long brown hair and gentile light brown eyes. "Please excuse my employee, miss." he continued as I stood up.
I smiled at him, but not lovingly like the other girls were. Mint was looking at him with little hearts in her eyes, her head in her hands (hands on her cheeks). I smirked a bit. I reconize a crush when I see one. "There's a bathroom over there." said Ichigo.
"ok, thanks..." I said to the guy and Ichigo.
"I'm Keiirchiro Akasaka, the manager." he said with another charming smile.
"I'm Bleuberri." I said. I smiled at him and went over to the small room that held doorways to the men's room (don't know why), the woman's room, the kitchen, and a door marked 'employees only'. Keiirchiro walked quickly past me into that room (the employees only one) and I had a breif glimpse of the inside. It was dark inside.
Curiosity got the best of me. I sneaked into the room and hid behind a grouping of boxes. "Ryou. I've found more backup." said Keiirchiro's light voice.
"Are you sure about this? Do we really need another one?" said another male voice. This one sounded younger.
"Yes we need all the help we can get, Ryou." said Keiirchiro.
I peeked around the boxes and saw Keiirchiro standing behind a seated blonde guy in front of a large computer setup. "Ok. Commencing mew 7"
Mew 7?? Is this a lab? "Five" said the blonde guy called Ryou.
"Four."
Why did I come in here?
"Four."
My heart is pounding faster than ever.
"Three."
Why is a lab in a cafe?
"Two"
Keiirchiro was shifting his weight from foot to foot.
"One."
Blinding, searing pain. In the middle of my back. Nothing but pain. Then I was in another void entirely. Everything was pitch black but for a figure outlined in icey light in front of me. As it got closer, it came into focus. It was a panther. A black panther to be exact. It's eyes were glowing in the same icy blue light as it padded forward. I crouched down and held out my arms to it. It came to me fearless and sat down as I wrapped my arms around it's neck and buried my face in it's silky fur. It started to purr and.. shrink. You read it: it started to shrink. As it shrunk, my body curled around it in a ball. More pain in the middle of my back. I tried to scream but couldn't.
Then I felt great. I felt like..a panther, powerfull, strong, and knowlegeful. A voice... was calling.. me. "Are you ok? Speak if you can hear me."
I opened my eyes to see two blurry figures kneeling in front of me. I blinked and they came into focus. Keiirchiro and a rather cute blonde boy with iceburg blue eyes. I sat up and shook my head, clearing it. "W-what happened?"
"You fainted." said blondey.
I narrowed my eyes at him. I don't faint. I'm not a sissy. I must have been dreaming. Then why did the pain feel real?
The lab door opened and the girl in red came in. "Oh! sorry, am I interrupting anything?" she said.
"No, in fact, I was about to call you." said blondey.
"Call me? Ryou, I'm not a Dog!"
"Please go get the others, Kinomi." said Keiirchiro before Ryou could answer. Kinomi smiled at him, glared at Ryou, and went back up to the main cafe. She came down after a minute. During that minute I asked Keiirchiro, "How long have I been out?"
"About 5 hours." said Ryou.
"Five hours?! Woah."
"Here we are!" sang a little girl's voice. We turned to see all the girls lined up in fornt of the door.
"Every one, say hello to our new member." said Keiirchiro.
"Whoa, whoa!" I said, getting to my feet. "Who said I was joining anything?"
"What else are you going to do with your abilities?" said Ryou, who was very close to me. So close, I caught his scent. It was sorta vanilla-like. I jumped away from him. He's a little fast.
"Abilities?" I said.
Ryou, without invitation, started to lift the back of my shirt. "OI!!" i shouted, turning and gripping Ryou's wrist and wrenching it away. He still had my shirt in his grip so it ripped a little when I grabbed his wrist. Oh well, I didn't really like this shirt anyway. I looked into his icy eyes. They were surprised. "Easy, Bleuberri." said Keiirchiro, prying my hand from Ryou's wrist. He stepped back quickly, rubbing his bruised wrist. I stared at my fingers. When did this new strength enter me? The started to tremble.
"Ryou was just showing you the mark." said Keiirchiro.
"What mark?"
"May I?" asked Keiirchiro, indicating my back "That mark." he said, lifting my ripped shirt back up a bit more. I stared over my shoulder at the middle of my back. There, smack dab in the middle, was a mark that looked like three jagged claw marks.
"You'e a mew mew." said Ryou, still rubbing his wrist.
Please RNR!
