Hi there, this is X. I'll be your hostess tonight, and tonight's story is a one I attempted to write with a friend about two or so years ago. It's alright I guess but that's really up to you if it's crap or not.
Anyway, I most certainly do not own Tokyo Mew Mew and probably never will... *goes and cries in a corner*
X'ing out, now~!
CHAPTER 1: Three Years Later.
Some time ago, about three years to be precise, in the city of Tokyo, was a team of heroes dubbed the Tokyo Mew Mew. Five girls who just happened to save the world from certain destruction. After that, they just disappeared. Rumor has it that they decided that since there was no threat, they didn't need to fight anymore, so they went back to their old lives.
Anyway, it had been three years since Tokyo Mew Mew disappeared. In a castle-like pink café, down in a hidden basement, a blonde haired man began typing in a password on a dust-covered computer. Just minutes ago two strange red dots had appeared on the computer screen, indicating a DNA fusion.
Ryou Shirogane immediately whipped out his cellphone, punched in several numbers, then waited.
"Hello, Akasaka Keiichiro speaking?"
"Keiichiro, you're probably not going to believe this, but I think Tokyo just got two more Mews." He said.
"OH MY GOD! Arishia, you are not going to believe this!" A young twelve-year-old girl bounded up to her twin sister after slamming the door shut.
"Yoru, what happened to-?"
"ICHIGO JUST SENT US TICKETS TO CANDY-5'S CONCERT!" Yoru screamed excitedly.
Twelve years old with short pastel pink hair that came down to her shoulders, bright blue eyes and almost white skin, you could recognize Yoru from a mile away. Arishia had slightly longer dark purple hair and deep golden eyes, fair skin and a perfect smile. In a way, she seemed to resemble Fujikara Zakuro, famous singer, model and actress.
Both sisters were born on the same day, were amazing at all sorts of things, most of the time in the arts. Yoru was a pro at playing the violin and Arishia was known for her amazing singing talent.
"Do you mean Cousin Ichigo, who's nearly broke, just sent us concert tickets that would have cost well over 30000 Yen EACH?" Arishia questioned.
Yoru sweatdropped. "Okay, I got them from someone else." She said. Arishia raised an eyebrow.
"Did it happen to be one of the men who give out candy to little kids?" she asked.
"It was free." Yoru replied. "You're kidding me." Ari sighed.
"No, some couple was walking along, they nearly got mugged, I stepped in and they gave me the tickets in gratitude." Yoru said.
"Seriously Yoru? One of these days you're gonna get in serious trouble."
Yoru grinned, went over to the couch and lay down on it. "Aw, come on sis. I'm the Black Cat Yoru. Nobody can defeat me and my kick-ass ninja skills!" she proclaimed, pointing her thumb at herself.
"Oh yeah? What about the incident with the tiger at the zoo?" Arishia asked.
"It was in a cage. Plus, those impala don't need such a big field. It took up like, half the zoo!" Yoru countered.
"There were more of them than there were of the tigers."
"Still! Tigers need a bigger territory or else they'll feel cagey."
"Seriously? Cagey?"
"Yep!"
Just then the doorbell rang.
Yoru and Arishia lived alone, since their parents abandoned them over five years ago. They rarely had people ringing their doorbell and usually if they ever did it was just a door-to-door salesman trying to sell them useless stuff.
"Ari, should we answer it?" Yoru asked.
"We'll resume this later." Arishia said then walked over to the door. She opened it to find a certain red haired sixteen-year-old on her front porch.
~40 Minutes earlier. (Ichigo POV)~
"Nya~" I stretched my back and picked up my still-ringing phone.
"Moshi Moshi?" I said into the speaker to be greeted by a familiar voice.
"Mew Ichigo? It's Keiichiro." Immediately I sat up dead straight in surprise. Why was he calling after all this time?
"Oh my god! Keiichiro-kun!? It's been so long! What's up?" I asked.
"Three things, actually. One, Shirogane-san is re-opening Café Mew Mew."
I pulled a face. "Let me guess, he wants me to start working again?" I asked.
"Yes, that's true. And two, we're reforming the team."
I let out a huff. "So he's getting everybody to start working there again? I don't think they'll like it." I said.
I heard a sigh from the other side of the phone. "No Ichigo, the team." Keiichiro said.
"Wait, I thought the aliens were long gone. It's been like, THREE YEARS."
"Shirogane called me less than an hour ago to say they might possibly be back. Do you mind if you can contact the other Mews for me and try to get them to Headquarters?"
"What about number three?" I asked. There was a pause at the end of the line.
"Ichigo, two more members have been discovered in Tokyo and we need you to find them." He said. "We were able to trace their DNA signature and find their identities."
I sighed. Glancing around the room unsurely I asked, "What are their names?"
"These two are pretty interesting. One is injected with the DNA of the Artic Wolf, which is quite rare, yet the other one has the DNA of the common black cat. The wolf's name is Subarashii Arishia and the cat's name is Subarashii Yoru."
"Nya!?" My ears and tail suddenly appeared. "Do they happen to be twins?" I asked, hoping they weren't who I thought they were.
"They're not identical, but they were born exactly the same day and within the same hour." Keiichiro replied.
"Oh my god." I said. My ears and tail was still out and my heart was beating faster than the speed of light. "They're my cousins!?"
~Back to Yoru and Ari (Yoru POV) ~
I lifted my head high enough to see who was at the door, then instantly ran and tackled my red-headed cousin.
"Ichigo! OHMYGOD! When did you get here!?" I yelled. Okay, I didn't mean to yell in her ear but seriously, wouldn't she be used to it by now?
"Nya, Yoru, don't do that. It kinda hurts~" Ichigo-chan said, rubbing the top of her head. The tips of her ears twitched slightly and her eyes seemed kind of… shifty. Something must be up.
"So…Ichigo… what's up?" I asked. Ari rolled her eyes for some reason. I just grinned and jumped off Ichigo.
"Um… Yoru, did you happen to find any…" Ichigo seemed to zone out mid-sentence. She was staring at my right ear strangely. Yeah, something's definitely up. Helping her up, I couldn't help but noticing that her eye pupils were more oval-shaped than normal. More like a-
"Ichigo, is there something wrong?" Arishia asked. She walked over to our red-headed cousin and cocked her head to the side. Her eyes sparkled a bit and…
Bingo.
"Well, have you found any… strange markings on your bodies? I mean, they're small but noticeable, about as small as…" Ichigo pulled out a coin from her pocket. "This coin. And it's pink. So have you found one by any chance?"
Arishia looked hesitant for a moment and then pulled off one of her socks. On her ankle was a small pink crescent moon, as big as Ichigo's coin.
"Is this one? I haven't found any others, but this seems strange enough. I found it last night." She explained.
Ichigo looked away from us for a moment and muttered something. "What do you mean, 'one of us'?" I asked. Ichigo looked surprised for a second, then began to speak.
"Yoru, Ari, those markings are one of a Mew's." she said. In shock we both stared at her until I asked the dreaded question.
"Ichigo, what the hell is a Mew?"
