I'd thought this story idea up when I was painting the trim for my room :P yea were in reno… for a long time… but were close to finishing! (we as in my family and me!) so I was painting the bottom trim for my room, and I let my mind wander into this idea, and another one which I hope to put up soon called 'A good case of amnesia?' Where Ichigo gets a bad case of amnesia making her forget… everything! And who happens to find her first? Well none other than Kish, and to him, this amnesia is a very good thing indeed! ;p yes it shall be a good story, and I lay claim to it so even though you heard about it before it comes out you can't use the idea!
Narrator's POV
– Somewhere in America at the time of the mew project starting.
"Shut up you stupid little, girl, don't you bother screaming again, or you'll never peak again, now give us what we want." The gang surrounded twelve year old Strawberry Chirone; the pink haired girl was frightened; she knew enough to know that they wanted more than just her money, she shivered in the heat; they wanted her.
There was nowhere to escape to though, her parents had both kicked her out of the house, so she couldn't go there, and she was being cornered into a back ally way, far away from the safety of the public, she didn't want to die, she had never imagined it to end for her like this.
That's when she saw the flash of pure light in the sky and fell over, her attackers all fled from the scene as the girl was no longer just a girl.
Narrator's POV
- Somewhere in Puerto Rico also at the time of the mew project.
"Please sir, will you spare some change?" begged the young girl, Maria DeAlacoentés.
Her aquamarine blue hair was messy and her face was smudged with dirt, the clothes she wore were beginning to get more than thread bare, she would need new ones soon.
But she was so hungry; she couldn't bear the thought of not eating for another month to get some new clothes.
The man she had chosen was a kind one as he dropped quite a bit of change in her little can, she thanked him
"Gracias sir, may God bless you!" the man smiled at her, and then left to continue on in his day.
Maria looked into the can; there was mucho dinero in there, enough to buy clothes and food. She smiled maybe the lord was smiling down on her, the poor orphanage girl for a change.
Then a light flashed, and she fell to the ground, wondering vaguely if she had died.
But she hadn't and the people in the square hadn't either, but they avoided the strange girl who lay in the corner of the market, no longer was Maria ignored, but she was seen by all the people there, everyone paid attention, and they were scared.
(A/N btw using good old Microsoft word I was able to translate a few words into Spanish, I know they are probably not perfect as I do not speak Spanish, but if you do well, I tried, anyways here are the translations into English: Gracias – Thank you, Mucho – a lot, Dinero – money)
Narrator's POV
- Back in America though elsewhere from Strawberry
Spunky little Rachel looked at herself in the mirror one last time, did she put the streaks of black in at good enough spots throughout her otherwise neon green hair? Of course, she just had to check that one last time. After all tonight was going to be big for her; she was going to meet up at his house with him and his gang, and hopefully by the end of the night she would be a member of the gang too.
Rachel hopped up onto her motorcycle and put on her leather gloves, she carefully drove out of the drive way, there was no way she was going to let that witch of a step mom stop her now.
So as soon as she was free of earshot to her house she revved the vehicle and rode off
'How fast can this thing go?' she wondered, well there was only one way to find out, she rammed her foot on the pedal flooring it. The tires screeched and she sped up, the feeling was exhilarating.
That is until she hit the black ice, she no longer had control of the bike as it went spinning off of the highway and into the underbrush. It was a nasty accident but by some miracle- which Rachel thought might be a curse- she was alive.
The bike had landed on her and she was cut up, and bleeding, but she was still alive, at least for the moment.
She tried shifting the bike with her hands, but either they were too weak or the bike was too heavy, she was leaning towards too weak as more blood loss made her feel faint, but before she passed out she saw a wondrous light in the sky.
Narrator's POV
- Perth Australia, beginning of the mew project.
"Yo, Alexy what's taking you so long?" asked the teen's friend
"Chill out mate, I'm coming already." She replied as she walked out the door putting her long blond hair back into a pony-tail.
"See ya later duck" she said to her platypus as she left.
"C'mon Alex, it's nearly ten thirty!" her friend rushed
"I told you, I'm coming" she told her back, catching up. The duo headed out towards the pub to get some drinks and to meet up with some friends, being seventeen she was finally allowed to buy drinks legally, she didn't drink often, but when she did, she made sure she had something better than just a beer or a glass of wine.
They got to the bar and sat down waiting for the other two girls that were supposed to come.
"Hey girl, what do you drink?" Alexy turned over to face a teenage guy; she smirked and turned back to her friend.
"Hey Sall, I got a job for doing some magic tricks back out at the plaza"
"Really Alex, that's top-notch, I got a job here actually as a waitress, but I don't start till tomorrow. What about you?"
"Well, I guess I'm not so lucky, I start tonight." Sall checked her watch
"What time?"
"As soon as I finish one drink…"
"I see, okay, what are ya getting this time?" she thought about it for a moment or two
"A chi-chi… you?"
"Maybe a margarita or something" Alex nodded her ponytail bobbing with her head
"Hey bartender!" she called, the man at the bar went to them
"What'll it be ladies?"
"A margarita over rocks and a chi-chi… please."
"Coming right up" It took a couple of minutes but the drinks did come relatively fast, so she paid right away, then she took a long sip of her drink, the alcohol burned her throat, like it always did.
"Okay, so… I gotta go now Sall I'll see you later" the other girl gave her a thumbs up already in a conversation with some guy.
A monkey screeched at her from above in the eucalyptus leaves, she hurried forward, night would be coming soon and the forest wasn't the safest place to be in at night.
She got to the plaza fashionable early, and kind of dizzy, she decided to set up her show then.
"Ladies and gentle men; welcome to the wondrous, mysterious, magic show, I'm the great Alexy Bonadai and this is my amazing assistant June Waterway" she cleared her throat
"And now for the first act of magic, I will need a volunteer, how about you miss, in the red shirt" a woman came up startled for being chosen, perfect, the more dazed they are the more amazed the crowd will be.
"Ma'am can I get you to please show every body you hands" the woman complied
"Ok, now close your eyes and cup your hands together"
"Ok" Alexy flicked her hand down in a casual manor, and caught the handkerchief like it had always been in her hand, she covered the woman's hands and said the signal words to June
"Abra cadabra, alakazam, and presto!" she heard the tell tale 'click' of the floor closing up once more, she quickly pulled up on the handkerchief and told the woman to release her hands as if she were throwing something, she did, and a flock of white birds came forth awing the crowd as she had hoped, she gently sent the woman back to her seat.
"Ok, for the next trick, how about I disappear?" the crowd cheered, after all wasn't it cool to see someone just disappear? She went into the tall wooden blue box and gave some instructions to her assistant, who then closed the door and gave it a spin, Alexy was about to go through the secret door when she felt paralyzed and a brilliant light filled her vision 'must be the alcohol' she thought as she blacked out
Narrator's POV
- in California usa the time of the mew project
"Dawn, get over here you ignorant girl!" the fifteen year old girl rolled her eyes and walked over to her old grand mother whom she was living with, if any one asked her, her grandma was the ignorant one, she was polite though, she always was.
"Yes grandma dear?"
"Help me to take my afternoon nap; you know I can't get ready on my own." She could too if she wanted, but she'd rather make her do it. But Dawn helped her anyways, and as soon as her grandmother was snoring she left the house, her breast length orchard coloured hair up in a loose bun, wearing blue jean short shorts and an orange striped tank top. She was out to meet her boyfriend Nick.
"Hey, babe, I'm breaking it off" he told her, she was stunned into silence
"Look, no offense, your hot and all, but your not what I want." Not what he wants! Bull, he was just mad because she wouldn't sleep with him, if he wanted to go date a slut let him then!
"Fine by me A hole" he didn't deserve her politeness now so he could just go and… she shook her head to clear it of bad thoughts
"Look, I get it you're a loser and you know what? You're not good enough for me, so maybe I'm leaving you!" Dawn then turned and walked away.
She was curled up in a ball at the cliff's edge at the beach, crying softly, why did everyone try to get rid of her? First her parents, then her siblings, and now her three year old boyfriend, was she some kind of anti people magnet, like the North Pole when people were the south?
The ocean waves sounded calming, and they were just right there, why didn't she just, walk right off that cliff?
That could end things very fast. She got up took a step forward, another, and another, till she was facing the oceans below, she jumped, a light flashing at the same time, she fell, the feeling scared her, but yet she loved it, she wasn't falling into the sea anymore, she was attacking it.
Chapter end, it's sorta like my prologue to introduce the girls, all of which deliberately have some sort of bad back ground, making them perfect targets for DNA mess-ups, but it also happened to save a few of their lives… and how well will Strawberry, Maria, Rachel, Alexy, and Dawn react to each other? But most importantly, why were they hit with the gene altering ray that was meant for only the five mews? Keep reading (like the next chapters) if you want to find out!
