Don't ask about the title, I just thought it sounded cute considering Momo means peach.

Alright, you may hate me for this, but Momo/Mew Peach is based off me. Also, her friends are clones of my friends. Yeah, Momo is me if I were a Mew Mew. And lived in Japan. (hides from angry mobs) Don't kill me!

WARNING: If you don't like same-sex pairing, don't read this. Not only does it involve Minto x Zakuro, I also made my own pairing that, to my knowledge, didn't exist until now. If it does, I'm sorry. I give you: (drum roll) Kisshu x Pai! No, it's not a typo folks; I have paired Kisshu and Pai! Not all out mushy love, just some cute fluff. Once again, DON'T KILL ME! (hides behind Zakuro, who brandishes her crosswhip) And as for you Masaya bashers, don't bother reading this. I like Masaya, and ruthless bashers of any kind tick me off a bit. So, yeah.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything except my own original characters, you know the drill by now. Seriously, if I owned TMM, I would never have let 4kids dub it. It would have been ADV films. And I would speak Japanese. Which I only know a few words of, and which will be used in this fic.

Translations.

Onee-(chan) (sama): This is a polite term the girls use for the girls in the group that are older than them. Literally translated, it means "Elder Sister", even though they're not sisters. It's just a more polite way to address friends who are older than you.

Onii-(chan) (sama): Same as the first one, but for boys. Means "Elder Brother."

Gomen/Gomen nasai: I'm sorry.

Arigato/Domo: Thank you.

Onigai: Please.

And now, onto the fanfic!

I sighed as I walked down the sidewalk towards home. I couldn't believe what was happening. Damn it. And I was sick the day that happened, too! I wasn't even there! Why did they have to get me involved?! Stupid Ayame had to go and say something insulting to stupid Kaida, who took it the wrong way, while stupid Emiko took Ayame's side, and stupid Haruko was just shutting herself away. I didn't know whom to side with, they were all acting stupid, and their stupidity was becoming contagious.

I sighed again and crossed the street. And then a saw it. That cute little café in the park that had caught my eye so many times. What was it called again? Café Mew Mew? Normally, I don't like pink and frilly things, but I figured a little sugar and a cheerful atmosphere would do me some good. And besides, I didn't have karate that afternoon, thank god. I took the path through the park and made my way towards the girly building.

As I walked through the open double doors, I was overcome by how… cutesy it was. Hearts, ribbons, frills, and an aura of unwavering happiness. I knew this little outing would help, though the pink made me kind of dizzy.

As I looked around I was startled as a cheery voice said, "Welcome to Café Mew Mew, table for how many?"

I shook myself out of my spaced out state and looked toward the owner of the voice. A girl about my age with short red hair and wearing what looked like an extra frilly red and pink maid's dress was standing in front of me with a tray.

"One please," I said, trying to act happy. The girl led me to a table in the corner and pulled out a notebook.

"What can I get you today?" she asked with a smile. I immediately took a liking to her. I was pretty sure I'd seen her before. 'I think she's in my class,' I thought.

I picked up the menu on the table and skimmed down it. "Chocolate cheesecake, please," I said.

"Coming right up!" she said with a smile. She walked through the double doors to where the kitchen obviously was. I set my elbows on the table and rested my chin on my hands. I closed my eyes and listened to the sounds of the café. The soft music, the people talking, silverware clanking against plates. All of my problems were gone for a moment, but as soon as I spaced out, they seemed to come flooding back. I had no idea what to do. On one hand, Kaida had had her feelings hurt badly, but it wasn't entirely Ayame's fault. Then Emiko was flipping out over Kaida, and "punishing" Ayame mercilessly, while Haruko was hiding and not helping at all.

The clank of a plate woke me up, and I looked up to see a very appetizing looking slice of cake in front of me. Another girl, also wearing a maids dress, but green was standing next to the table with the bill. She had soft blue eyes framed by round glasses, and her hair was green and put into two thin braids. "Enjoy," she said, putting the bill on the table.

I picked up the fork that was on the plate and took a bite of the cheesecake. It was the best I had ever tasted in my life. As it melted in my mouth, everything floated away as I entered a dream-like state that was only caused when I ate really good desert. It was like I was floating on a cloud, a cloud made of chocolate. I was so absorbed in my mini heaven, the words that floated into my ears failed to register, even though I heard them.

"You're positive, Shirogane?"

"YES, I said!"

"We'll have another friend, na no da!"

"Well, we should tell her, right?"

"Not outright. At least one of us should get to know her, first."

"She's in my class, I'll do it."

"Okay, Ichigo. We'll leave it up to you."

I shrugged off the weird conversation as I finished my cheesecake. After all, what business was it of mine? I fished the money I owed out of my pocket and put it on the table. I left a pretty large tip considering the waitresses were so pleasant.

As I walked along the path away from the café, I noticed a small statue sitting on the ground next to the topiary archway of the cafe. I bent down next to it and examined it further. Carved on spots covered it, and I specualted that it was a leopard. It seemed a little out of place, though. I disregarded it and walked back into the park.

Without wanring, the ground shook beneath my feet. At first, I thought nothing of it, as I was still under the influence of the cheesecake. But another tremor came, this time feeling more like a fully blown earthquake. Seeing a lamppost, I ran to it as fast as I could without falling down and clung to it. Suddenly, a flash of bright red light engulfed me, and I felt myself falling...

I was floating in a green abyss, and for some reason, I was naked, but I wasn't cold. Bubbles floated around me, sparling and giving off an orange glow. And somewhere in front of me, there was a bouncing light. It started moving closer, and I squinted to get a better look at it. It looked like the statuette I had seen earlier. Only a bit too fluffy to be a normal leopard… a snow leopard, maybe? I stared as it bounded towards me. 'Oh, crap,' I thought. 'It's going to freaking eat me!' Damn, why did I have to die? Oh, well. Then maybe my friends would forget the stupid fight. But then, what good would that be if I wasn't there to enjoy it?

But as the leopard drew nearer, it slowed down and walked up to me. It rubbed against my leg and made what I guess could be considered a purr. I felt safer now, so I lowered my hand and tentatively pet it on the head. All at once, it reared on it's hind legs and jumped. Before I could even scream, it hit my chest. Or at least, it made contact with my chest. I looked down and saw it's tail disappearing into my chest.

'It went inside me?' I thought. A soothing warmth engulfed my body, a tingling sensation flowing through it. I felt myself falling again...

Yes! Cliffhanger! I hope you like it so far.
