Just an updated version because, I found mistakes in the writing. Anyway...
Hi everyone I hope you enjoy this fic though, mostly I'd like feedback. You see I'm not completely sure about continuing a Tokyo Mew Mew fic so reviews would be welcome and greatly appreciated, thank you. Oh and I don't own anything to do with Tokyo Mew Mew obviously.
The Escape
The sun was setting in the east while cars drove down the busy streets. Smoke flew across the air from the fumes and the elevated buildings seemed to soar high into the darkening sky. Birds returned to the parks, children slept in their beds and lights weaved through the blocks of structures. Past the nightlife of Tokyo Japan and into the far quieter suburban life style, a shade was shifting around the homes.
"Where the hell are they expecting me to hide when I'm stuck in this place!" the figure hissed to itself whilst it's eyes trailed over the rooftops of many houses. They were lined row upon row with large gardens both front and back. 'Place must be rich or something…' the shade thought with misery and a grim expression.
A few more minutes and the moon would be towering over the globe, the sun lighting it for show. Rushing past a chimney top, the shadow flung itself from one roof to the next. Praising Satan for the cover of night, the creature lurked behind another chimney top as, a family of five retuned home. The car froze on the drive way and each human in turn came out of the metallic machinery and approached their doorstep. Watching their movement closely, the creature glanced to the sky in hopes of seeing the stars. The porch light came on and the family went inside away from the bitter cold.
The frosty air was hard on the lungs and the mist that floated along the lawns and roads wrapped the dim street in a strong fog. Spying for another rooftop to glide towards, the figure walked across the badly tiled roof. The silence of the surroundings was pleasant. In the distance the stranger's gaze fell upon a park not too far from their current position. 'Finally and its about time too!' they thought with anger.
Running to the edge of the roof, the stranger slipped on a faulty tile. Falling to the grassy floor, the figure hit the ground hard. They groaned and raised themselves onto their hands and knees.
A shout from the upper double windows caused the shadow to become vigilant and tense. Immediately the figure hurled themselves towards the bushes and crouched on all fours, mutely waiting. From what the taciturn shadow could hear the window had been opened and two of the humans were then bickering with one another.
"Dave its probably a cat or something-" the woman's voice faltered as a deeper voice retaliated harshly.
"Oh, yeah! Of course it's a cat! That bang was too loud to be a cat Clara." The man said sarcastically to his wife who remained in the bed.
"Just come back to bed and go to sleep would you? I'm at work early tomorrow and I'll need to take Taylor to that school that teaches Japanese! Now come to bed or else you're sleeping on the couch downstairs! You got that?" she shouted with rage. The man grumbled, but eventually shut the window again after checking the front lawn for any proof of an intruder.
With his back turned to them the figure dived into the next garden and made the way over the grass to the solid pavement. They straightened their posture and slowly began a leisurely pace to the park.
Once past the houses of the somewhat rich humans the shade made its way into the foliage and off the pathways. The creature continued it's way through the wood. The breeze waved the trees and the smell of pine and many other kinds of woodland scented the area that was the park. Breathing deep, deep down the creature released a relieved smile with a soft touch in their brown eyes. 'Finally, I'm at peace.' It thought calmly. The serene atmosphere was like the freedom that they had awaited so long.
The air was not dusty and broken like back in the institute. The leaves of the vegetation in the park were much more supple than the straw like plants that resided inside the dull walls of the organization. Everything appeared more open outside than in. The wide spaces and the stars that the figure had been dreaming of for years were now it's for the taking. Now at the age of fifth-teen the shade wanted to explore the world they had left for the institute many years before. It had changed that was for sure. More giant buildings and screens along the sides with people on them. The moon shined brighter than they had originally thought and the trees had grown larger and higher than last time.
Slipping onto a low branch of a tree, the figure fell into an abyss of sleep that was immensely welcomed. It was sitting under the clouded sky of midnight. It was light enough however, that if any passer-by would have glanced into the untamed tree branches they would see a girl. A broken soul at heart and covered head to toe with dirt, sweat and dried blood.
Well there you go chapter one The Escape, bye x.
