A/N: Ok. So maybe I lied a little in my last Inu Yasha story. I was reading Tokyo Mew Mew Vol. 3 the other day and I was home alone that night and I was a little down, so I started writing this story. I was listening to a variety of music off my X-Box when I wrote this, which was around 1am. I didn't get to bed till about 3:30. I couldn't sleep. Some of the dialogue here is from the ending of Vol. 3, so if it sounds familiar then that's where it is from. I only got Vols.1, 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7. I am so upset. Waldenbooks or Media Play didn't have Vol. 4. I am so mad. Well, I am attempting to write a happy story, since most of mine are a little sad. sighs and wipes tears Sorry, I am a little upset. Noz, you know why. Well, on to the first chapter of my first Tokyo Mew Mew Story.
Disclaimer: I do not own Tokyo Mew Mew. The talented Mia Ikumi and Reiko Yoshida do. If I did, then I would be so happy and I would know what happens in the forth volume. I AM GOING CRAZY! I NEED THE FORTH VOLUME! AHHH! SOMEONE HELP ME! Wait, don't help me. NOZ! I NEED IT!
Chapter One: Memories
"For your evil actions, I will make you pay!" Ichigo yelled.
"Ichigo!" a male voice yelled. Ichigo turned around and saw Ryou running toward her.
"Ryou? What are you doing here?" Ichigo asked.
"You did say... that kissing turns you back to a person."
"Yeah? So?" Ichigo answered.
"What about the other way?" Ryou asked.
"The other way?" Ichigo repeated.
"Yeah. Would you turn into a cat if someone kissed you right now?"
"What? Why do you ask?" Ichigo asked, shocked.
"Wanna try it? Kiss me..." Ryou said. Ryou leaned in for the kiss.
Ichigo awoke with a start. That stood out in her mind vividly. Just like when Kish kissed her and Masaya became Deep Blue. Masaya. He moved away shortly after the Mew Mews defeated Kish, Pie and Tart. She missed him. The doorbell rang.
"Ichigo!" Mrs. Momomiya yelled. Ichigo grabbed her robe and ran downstairs. She walked into the living room and saw Mint, Lettuce, Pudding, Zakuro and... Ryou. The dream that she had came flooding back to her. The contents in the dream had happened six years ago.
"Ryou? I haven't seen you in what, three years?" Ichigo asked. Ryou nodded.
"I hope you don't mind him coming along. We saw him yesterday and invited him to come along," Mint said. Ichigo turned away.
"I don't mind. I am going to go get ready." Ichigo ran upstairs and pulled on a shirt, skirt and thigh high socks (A/N: I pay too much attention to detail. I guess that comes from being in band and taking Broadcasting and Video Production. ). She even pulled her pink hair into the pigtails she always wore (A/N: She had dyed her hair before the story takes place). When she ran downstairs, everybody got up and slipped their shoes on. Then they started to walk to the zoo.
As soon as they arrived, Mint, Lettuce, Pudding and Zakuro abandoned Ichigo and Ryou, together.
"Just like last time, huh, Ichigo?" Ryou asked.
"Yeah," Ichigo said.
"Ichigo. Last night, I had a really weird dream about something that happened about six years ago," Ryou said. Ichigo stopped. She turned to face Ryou.
"Did you tell me to kiss you in the dream? 'Cause if you did, then I had the same dream," Ichigo said.
"It was when you turned into a cat, but you were fighting an alien and you had just got done saying your famous line 'For your evil actions, I will make you pay' then I ran up to you and I started talking about kissing. Though I always wake up before we kiss," Ryou said.
"I find it kinda weird that we had the same dream," Ichigo said, turning away from Ryou. He reached out and grabbed Ichigo's arm. She turned toward him, surprised.
"Kiss me..." he whispered. They both leaned in for the kiss.
"Ichigo!" a voice yelled. It was Pudding and Lettuce.
"Are we interrupting something?" Lettuce asked.
"Oh, no!" Ichigo said.
"Then why are you blushing?" Pudding asked.
"Pudding! Well, anyway, we wanted to tell you that we found the Finless Porpoise," Lettuce said.
"And we found the Golden Lion Tamarin," Pudding said.
"Well, let's go, Pudding," Lettuce said. Lettuce and Pudding walked off.
"Come on, lets go find somewhere more private," Ryou said.
"Ummmm, I wanna find the Iriomote Cat," Ichigo said. She didn't want to be alone with Ryou, where they wouldn't be disturbed.
"Oh, ok," Ryou said, a little disappointed. Ichigo let out a sigh of relief, and Ryou scowled a little, but made no comment. They continued to walk around. They saw Mint and Zakuro, who were looking at the Gray Wolf.
"Are you having fun?" Mint asked. Ichigo and Ryou nodded a yes. Ichigo turned toward Zakuro to talk and Mint turned toward Ryou.
"So, is anything happening between you and Ichigo, yet?" Mint asked.
"No, I don't think she likes me anymore," Ryou said, a hint of pain in his voice.
"Oh, she does. When she stays at my house or when I stay at her house, I hear her say your name when she sleeps. And remember, she might like you, but she is afraid to tell you. Remember how hard it was for her to tell Masaya. I am sure she is having the same problem," Mint said, looking over at Ichigo. Ryou was also looking at Ichigo. Her pink hair glistened in the sun and her brown eyes showed happiness when she joked with Zakuro.
Ryou remembered when her eyes were like that. It was when she dated Masaya. She was always happy, and when he moved away, Ryou tried to move into her life, but she wouldn't let him. So he left her alone. Ryou wanted Ichigo to be happy. He wanted to see happiness in her eyes when she was with him, but since she pushed him out of her life, he never got a chance. But this time, the chance wasn't going to get away from him.
"Ichigo. I am hungry. Let's go get something to eat," Ryou said.
"Oh, ok. I will see you two later," Ichigo said. They walked in silence for a few minutes.
"What do you want to eat, Ichigo?" Ryou asked.
"I don't know. I have to go to the bathroom. Can you wait here?" Ichigo asked. Ryou nodded his head. Ichigo walked toward the bathroom when she heard another familiar voice.
"Do you remember the kiss, Ichigo?" a familiar male voice said. Ichigo turned around slowly and looked up. There was Kish, looking down at her with a smile on his face.
A/N: Ok, so I was able to buy Vols. 5, 6, and 7. I ended up telling mom to hide those because I didn't want to look at them and spoil it for me. But I am going to go back on Thursday, first to Waldenbooks then to Media Play. I know that some of you are probably wondering why I don't go to Borders. Well, there is one somewhere in Dublin, and I can't drive in Dublin. I hate driving in big cities. I hate driving around Hilliard during rush hour. I hate rush hour. CRUSE YOU RUSH HOUR! I need Vol. 4. cries Well, as you might have figured out, this story takes place about 6 years after Tokyo Mew Mew. I haven't read the new Tokyo Mew Mew series, but I will, oh I will. Anyways, please R&R. No flames please. Constructive Critism welcome, just no flames. I am still healing from the burns I got earlier. My Kagome action figure is looking at me weird. I am scared! Anyways, like I said, R&R.
Ichigo: Make her happy!
Smurf: Ichigo?
Mint: R&R
Pudding and Lettuce: yeah!
Zakuro:...
Smurf: I must be losing it!
