Always Doesn't Last Long
By: Sailorjj07
1. A New Mew
A/n: I've started a Tokyo Mew Mew fic! Yay! I would like to explain the title. I wanted to call it "Always Doesn't Last Long With You", but since that's terribly long, I just cut it short. I hope I don't make anyone too OOC. Oh, and by the way I'm going by the manga, which I haven't finished yet. I'll introduce a new character, and hopefully you'll like her! On with the fic!

(Me!)
Ichigo looked out of the window and sighed. After fighting aliens every night, going to school was boring. But since she had to go, she went and tried to like it. The only good thing about school was seeing Masaya. And even that was starting to get boring.
'I really don't think he loves me anymore. He keeps telling me he does, but I'm afraid he doesn't. Was it me?'
Ichigo sighed again and looked out the window somemore. She almost gave a gasp of suprise when Masha flew by the window and then came to a halt. Ichigo continued to stare at him, until he started hitting the glass. She could faintly hear his tweet from where she was sitting in the class. Thinking he needed her, Ichigo raised her hand and asked if she could go to the bathroom. Once she had gotten permission to go, she ran outside to grab Masha from infront of the window.
"Masha, what are you doing here?" Ichigo asked him, letting him sit on her palm.
"Ichigo, as soon as your out of school come to the cafe. I have some news you might like to hear." Ryou's voice said, from the little intercom inside of Masha.
"What's it about?"
"You'll see when you get here." Came the reply. With a tweet Masha flew out of her hand and away. Ichigo watched him for a moment before rushing back inside the school, back to her class.
When School Let Out
"Hi Masaya!" Ichigo cried, seeing him walking out of the school by himself. Masaya turned and gave her a small smile before slowing down, so she could walk with him.
"Hi Ichigo. How was your day?" He asked, walking beside her
"It was wonderful!" Ichigo replied, smiling. After they got a little further away from the school, Masaya stopped causing Ichigo to stop too. Masaya reached out and grabbed her, pulling Ichigo into a tight embrace. A red blush stained her cheeks and a dreamy expression crossed her face.
"Ichigo, I don't want you to fight anymore."
"Why not?" Ichigo asked, the blush fading from her cheeks. She wasn't very happy with Masaya's statement.
"You'll get hurt. And I don't know what I'd do if you got hurt."
"But Masaya, I have to..."
"No, you don't. Let the other Mews fight."
"I can't do that." Ichigo said, stepping away from him. He still had a smile on his face, but Ichigo ignored it. She felt tears coming to her eyes, and turned away. She started walking away from him before she stopped,"Please don't ask me to do that ever again." With that said, she took off, not wanting to see his face.
'I thought he supported me? I thought the fact that I was a Mew didn't matter?' Ichigo stopped running when she came near the cafe. "I guess it does now..."
In The Cafe
When Ichigo walked in various hellos came from all around. Ichigo smiled and said hi back to all of them before running into Ryou.
"You said you had something to tell me?" She asked Ryou, who nodded.
"Yeah. I'm calling a meeting with all the girls though. Not just you. You aren't that special."
"Shut up!"
"Nope." Ryou smirked at her, before telling everyone to meet him in the lab. When all of them got there, he sat down at a computer and started typing.
"We've located another Mew." Keiichiro said, from another computer.
"But we were the only five that got merged with animals, right?" Mint asked, confused.
"Obviously not. This girl just moved here, which means somewhere else their trying to do the same thing. Thing is, she's the only one." Ryou said, typing somemore.
"What's her name?" Ichigo asked, looking at the picture that popped up on the computer screen. The girl had dark brown hair that was up in a tight bun and blue-green eyes. She looked about the same height as Mint.
"Chocolate Takahashi. She lives near you, Ichigo." Keiichiro said, looking at the address.
"W-when did she get-t here?" Lettuce asked, looking at the picture as well.
"Just last week." Keiichiro replied, typing somemore. Another screen popped up and her cell phone number, phone number, and e-mail popped up.
"The thing is she's hardly ever home, except to sleep. She's in a club and she stays there most of the time."
"What kind of club?" Pudding said, hoping it was something cool.
"She sings. It's a club based solely on music and talent." Ryou said, smirking. "So which one of you can sing?"
"I can!" Pudding cried, bouncing up and down.
"I can too." Mint said, smiling.
"Is that it?" Ichigo asked, looking at all the girls.
"The rest of you can go just to watch. Pudding and Mint, I need you to find out who she is and look for the mark. It'll be on her somewhere, you just have to find it." Ryou told them, leading them out of the lab.
"Let's go!" Ichigo cried, ready for anything.
At The Club
When Ryou said she was in a club, he wasn't kidding. The undercover Mew Mews walked into a dance club that would be filled with adults later that night. There were people everywhere.
"How come I've never heard of this place?" Mint asked, looking around.
"Neither have I." Ichigo replied, examining the room they were in.
"Look, she's up there!" Pudding cried, pointing at the stage causing everyone to look. And Pudding was right. Chocolate was up on stage, singing like there was no tomorrow.
"And there's her mark." Zakuro added, indictaing the fang looking mark on the back of her right shoulder. The entire group saw it when she was doing a dance move to the song. They had caught the middle of the song and by the time it was over, the Mew Mews were back stage, waiting on Chocolate to show up. When she came down, Ichigo went up to her.
"Are you Chocolate Takahashi?"
Chocolate lifted an eyebrow,"Why do you wanna know?" Her voice was melodic and you could tell she was a singer. She had a slight attitude though.
"I need to talk to you." Ichigo said, determined to complete her misson.
"About?"
"The mark on your back."
"How do you know about it?" Chocolate asked, yanking her bun out to cover it up. Her hair spilled down to her shoulders, halfway covering the mark. She knew the halter top she had worn that day would show it.
"We all have marks just like yours." Ichigo said, indicating the group of girls behind her.
"Do you?!"
Ichigo smiled at her,"Would you like to go for some tea so we can explain this better to you?"
5 Minutes Later
"I see you managed to convince her to help you." Ryou said, when the group walked in. Ichigo nodded and the entire group sat down at a table.
"You, Chocolate have just become a Mew Mew." Keiichiro said, smiling at her.
"Who are you? And who is he?" She asked, pointing at Keiichiro and then Ryou.
"I'm Keiichiro. And that's Ryou."
"Your cute." Chocolate said, with a smile.
"Thank you." They both said, together smiling.
"Chocolate, you are just like us. We all have those marks and we all have been merege with an animal." Mint said, sipping on her tea.
"I was merged with a San Joaquin Kit Fox." Chocolate said, watching Masha fly around her.
"That means you can transform too." Ichigo said, happy to have a new friend.
"Transform?" Chocolate asked, slightly confused.
"Yes. Watch. Mew Mew Strawberry Metamorphosis!" In a flash of pink light, Ichigo became Mew Ichigo. She grinned at Chocolate, who watched her wide eyed.
"I can do that?"
"Yeah. Just concentrate on changing." Pudding said, smiling.
"Ok....Mew Mew Chocolate Metamorphosis!" Chocolate held her hand up, while calling out the words that came to her mind. In a flash of red light, Chocolate's clothes changed and she became the new Mew Chocolate. Her outfit was a red dress like Mint's blue one. The dress went to her thighs and stopped where a red band was resting right below the bottom of her dress. Her shoes were red, but looked like Pudding's and she had on red fingerless gloves. Her tail was a light brown and her ears were light brown as well. They almost looked like Zakuro's except closer together and more pointed.
"Wow. Look at me!" She looked down and examained her clothes. She tugged on the dress and touched the fabric.
Ichigo laughed,"Welcome to the team, Mew Chocolate."
Later
After closing the cafe for two hours, Ryou opened it back up with Chocolate now working there as well. She was probably the best worker he had.
"Good job, Chocolate." Ryou said, to her while she delivered five cups of apple tea to a table.
"Thanks cutie." She replied, winking. "I've been a waitress all my life! I'm used to stuff like this."
"She's good at this." Mint said, sipping her tea.
"Why aren't you working?!" Ichigo asked, her rolling her eyes.
"It's time for my tea."
"We just had some earlier!"
"So? I always have tea at 5:00 p.m."
"Oh whatever." Ichigo walked off, taking another order. Chocolate walked by with the empty tray, "Mint, what are you doing?"
"Drinking tea. I see you got my name right."
"Yeah I did. But you just had some tea when I got here!"
"And I'm having it again."
"I'd be careful about that, it could really mess your digestive system up."
"I don't care."
"I've noticed." Chocolate walked away from the seated Mint to go put a tray up. She watched Pudding do a trick for one of the customers and break about eight dishes in the process. Then she turned as another crash was heard and Lettuce dropped some more plates with glasses of parfaits on it.
"Are they always that clusmy?" Chocolate asked Zakuro, who was leaning over the counter. Zakuro just stared at her. "Are you going to answer me?"
"No."
"So they are always like that?"
"It's usual. Yes."
"Oh...Your name is....Zakuro, right?"
"Yes."
"Cool." Feeling slightly afraid, Chocolate went and sat at the table with Mint. Mint just smiled and sipped at her tea.
"Girls, we have a problem." Ryou said, walking in the room. Masha flew in behind him, making alot of noise.
"What is it?" Ichigo asked, putting her tray up.
"Kish, Tart, and Pie are attacking the mall. You need to get down there and stop them. Chocolate, are you going?"
"Yup!"
"Go then!" All six ran out of the cafe.
At The Mall
Once the group arrived at the mall, everything was in total chaos. People were running everywhere and everything was falling apart. Kirema animas in the form of birds were all over the place and were attacking people. The Mew Mews looked around the mall until the found the three aliens.
"Kish!" Ichigo cried, getting his attention. He flew down to her, grinning evilly the whole way,"I was hoping you would come. Hello my cute little strawberry. And look you brought a new friend! She's cute too."
"I was just about to say the same for you! I'm Mew Chocolate and if your ready for a fight, bring it cutie!" Chocolate stood ready, waiting for something to attack. The birds began to fly at her, but Chocolate wouldn't have it.
"Chocolate Claw Slash!" She thrust her hand down (like she was scratching something) and huge red claw marks appeared in the air, going through a group of birds.
"Wow..." Pudding said, watching the group of birds around her disappear.
"Stop paying attention to your new team member and fight me!" Tart cried, making a group of birds fly at Pudding. She smiled at him and tossed a candy drop at him,"Catch!" Tart caught it of course, but not before Pudding trapped all the birds in her Pudding Ring.
"Hey! You cheated!" Tart tried his hardest not to blush. Something about Pudding made him warm on the inside, and it took all of him to not blush.
"No I didn't, Tar-Tar!"
"Stop calling me that!"
"No Tar-Tar!" Tart gave an exasperated cry before he sent more kirema animas at Pudding.
Pie was fighting Zakuro and at the moment he was winning,"Your not as good as I thought you were." He said, smirking at her.
"We'll see." Zakuro replied. "Ribbon Zakuros Pure!" The purple whip like beam wrapped around Pie's ankle and Zakuro began spinning in a circle, yanking Pie around by his ankle. She let it go and Pie flew into a wall leaving an imprint.
"Dang..." Pie said, climbing out of the imprint that he had left in the wall. Zakuro stood ready, a smirk on her face.
"Ribbon Lettuce Rush!" Lettuce got rid of most of the birds that were pecking at people. But as soon as she got rid of the black cloud of birds, another came.
"More are coming!" Mint cried, fighting another cloud,"Ribbon Mint Echo!" She got rid of that cloud only to be attack by another.
"I'm coming, Mint!" Pudding cried, rushing to help.
"Oh no you don't!" Tart cried, sending a cloud of birds at her. Pudding grinned and popped a candy drop in her mouth,"Puddding Ring Inferno!" The cloud of birds immediatly froze in the gaint pudding.
Ichigo was still trying to fight off Kish,"Go away!" She cried, jumping out of the way of a cloud of birds. They made a circle and came back,"Ribbon Strawberry Check!" The group of birds disappeared and was replaced by another.
"Ichigo, I'm coming!" Chocolate cried, fighting her way through. When she finally got to Ichigo, Chocolate jumped in front of her,"Leave Ichigo alone!"
"Ichigo's mine I can do whatever I want with her." Kish replied, floating above them.
"If she's yours why do you treat her like crap? I don't think I'd want something that belonged to me, hurt or broken."
"That's true..." Kish said, looking thoughtful.
"Your too cute to be acting like this. Too bad I have to get rid of you! Chocolate Claw Slash!" Chocolate threw her attack at him, and because he was so in his thoughts Kish didn't notice until it was too late. Claw marks appeared on his arms and legs and he started to bleed.
"You'll pay for that." Kish said, glaring angrily at her.
"I'm ready when you are!" Chocolate said, still standing in front of Ichigo, who was watching the two.
"Not right now. Tart, Pie! Let's go!" Kish said, vanishing. The birds continued to attack them though.
"With the main leaders gone all we have to do is get rid of these things!" Ichigo cried, preparing to attack.
"Ribbon Strawberry Check!"
"Ribbon Mint Echo!"
"Ribbon Lettuce Rush!"
"Pudding Ring Inferno!"
"Ribbon Zakuros Pure!"
"Chocolate Claw Slash!"
All the Mew Mews threw attacks at once, getting rid of all the birds. "Yay, we got 'em!" Ichigo cried, smiling. She watched as Chocolate grinned happily and gave Pudding a high five.
