This story is a product of me listening to Midnight Syndicate's, The 13th Hour, CD all afternoon over and over again. Just to let you know Midnight Syndicate makes halloween CD's with creepy horror movie music and sound affects. TOTALLY AWESOME! And since it's October, I couldn't resist the urge to write a Halloween inspired story for Tokyo Mew Mew. This was originally going to be a one-shot, but it would make the suspense so much more fun if I made it a short story with separate chapters. Plus I'm kinda writing this at random, switching from begging, to end, then to the middle, and so on.
Ichigo: I don't like the looks of this story.
October brings out my darker side...
Ichigo: *looks scared*
Ichigo, *eyes start to glow* do the disclaimer.
Ichigo: *gulp* T-Tokyo M-M-Mew Mew does not belong t-to N-Nilla in any w-way-y shap-pe or f-for-rm-m.
*eyes still glowing* Let's begin the fun, shall we?
1. The Invitation
"Are you series, onee-sama!" Mint squealed, Zakuro grinned.
"Yes, I would like to invite you all to a Halloween banquette on the 31st at my house, and you are all welcome to stay the night as well." She said.
"What's Halloween?" Ichigo asked.
"Halloween is a holiday that some cultures around the world celebrate on October 31st." Keiichiro said, "Most people in Japan don't celebrate it yet, but in certain places like America kids go around at night dressed in costumes 'trick-or-treating' by going to peoples houses and are given candy."
"Pudding likes the sound of Halloween! Na no da" Pudding said doing a cartwheel across the café.
"I'm sure it will be interesting." Shirogane said walking in from somewhere in the back.
"Why do you always do that?" Ichigo asked him.
"What?" He asked, a puzzled look on his face.
"Walk in the room mysteriously and then say something like you've been here the whole time listening to us."
"I have been here the whole time." Shirogane grinned, Ichigo clenched her fists.
"You can bring Aoyama if you want to, Ichigo." Zakuro said, Ichigo suddenly lightened up and had hearts in her eyes.
"Really! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you, Zakuro-san!" Ichigo said hugging the older girl.
Zakuro continued to grin. "Oh yeah, and I invited the Ikisatashi's too."
Ichigo suddenly let go of Zakuro. "WHAT! You mean Kisshu is gonna be there!"
"Taru-Taru too?" Pudding squealed, and continued to do her acrobatics.
Ichigo was once again fuming. "WHY DID YOU INVITE THEM?"
"Because I thought it would be nice, considering we haven't seen them since, well, you know." Zakuro said.
"I have to say I'm on the same page as Ichigo here, although I do understand they did help us in the end, they still were our enemies for a long time." Shirogane said with his arms crossed. "And how did you even get in touch with them in the first place?"
"Um…" everyone tried to keep their jaws from dropping when Zakuro blushed. "That's no important."
Mint stared at her idol, "So, if this is a banquette, there are gonna be other people there too, how are you gonna disguise the aliens?"
"That's just it." Zakuro said, her blush fading. "You and the Ikisatashi's are the only ones who will be there."
Now everyone was extremely confused. "Why would we be the only ones there?" Lettuce asked.
"For certain reasons…" Zakuro appeared to be hiding something, but they didn't know what.
"Well, it's settled then, we will meet you at your house on the 31st." Keiichiro said grinning.
"I will see you there." Zakuro said, and then she left.
Mint stared at the entrance even after Zakuro had disappeared. "Something's wrong…She didn't seem like herself."
"She seemed like her usual introverted-self to me." Ichigo said, but she too knew what Mint meant. Something was going on with Zakuro, and she wouldn't tell them what.
Ichigo: Well...That chapter wasn't so bad...
It get's worse. So don't get your hopes up. This is only the beginning. I hope you enjoyed! Please review! Love you, kittens!
