DISCLAIMER: I don't own Tokyo Mew Mew, just Kiwi and the story line for this fic

XXXAn Interesting BeginingXXX

It had been a long day. School had lazily dragged itself from one lesson to the other till, finally, it decided to take her back to the battle ground of world war three that was her home. Kiwi knew that as soon as she opened the door, her parents would demand to know who she had decided to live with once the divorce was settled, as they had do every day before. Every day she gave them the same answer: "boss just called, sorry, but I've got to go," and with that, she would run out of the door. There was only one flaw with this lie: she didn't have a job. Instead, she would visit some parks around Tokyo until sunset. She knew the night could reveal a wicked world.

Today, the young twelve year old found herself standing by a fountain. She remembered someone telling her that a small girl use to preform tricks for money here, but that was a long time ago and the girl was long gone. Kiwi sat on the edge of the fountain and looked down into the cold water. Staring back her, was a large pair of gray eyes that sat on a simple, yet pretty heart-shaped face. She smiled at herself and gently tapped her reflections nose. Once the water settled again, she pushed her long, curly, brown hair behind her right ear, beginning to study a white mark on her neck that glistened in the water.

She had found it one day, after waking up from a strange dream. Ever since then, Kiwi had worn her hair down, to hide it. It was only small, but if her mother ever saw it...she hated to think. Just moving here over a month ago already had her screaming for the way things use to be. That's what made the divorce so hard to take sides on. Kiwi could either: stay here with her farther and give Japan a chance or she could go back to a town called Runcorn in England. She like both ideas and whatever she did, her sister would follow.

Sighing, she turned her back on the water, trying to forget about her family problems; it was too difficult for her right now. Instead, she listened to the wind. In the distance, she could hear shouts as people called to one another. The voices were muffled, but Kiwi was pretty sure she heard the word 'mew' and 'ribbon'. Mew...Ribbon... "Mew...Ribbon." She whispered, as if she was seeing how the words tasted on her tongue. To her, they were bitter. She had heard these words before, despite the short time she had been here. After all, they were impossible to avoid. The distant shouts became louder, clearer and more urgent until, suddenly, several voices cried out simultaneously: "LOOK OUT!"

Kiwi looked up to see a brown blur heading straight towards her. Unable to make out what it was, she twisted her body slightly, just in time to see the blur fly past her nose. The sudden movement had it's consequences thought. Losing her balance, Kiwi fell backwards into the large fountain. 'What the hell?' She thought as she sat up and rubbed the water out of her eyes. Surly she was just tired and imagining things. Soon her vision cleared.

Standing a little way in front of her was a strange, gray creature. From afar, the thing could have been mistaken for a human in a very, very good Halloween costume. But humans didn't have claws, fur or a tail! It was the most ghastly thing imaginable. As if some freak had taken a squirrel and a man and combined then to make this...this.... unearthly creature. Scattered around the thing were five girls, each dressed in a different colour with hair to mach. Pink, green, blue, yellow and purple. Tokyo Mew Mew; Japan's very own super heroes.

"Ribbon Mint Arrow!" One of them yelled and from her small, blue bow, shot an arrow towards it. The monster jumped out of the way, so quick and elegant. As it moved, the Mews shadowed it. No, better than shadowing, moving in time with it, or with some with it, ahead, predicting its moves and acting before it could. She could see now, the mew's were trying to surround it. Its capture looked hopeful, until there was only one opening left and that opening was toward Kiwi. The monster realized this too and, soon, was running full speed in her direction.

'What...the...hell.' Kiwi was frozen with fear. That thing was going to crush her. Move girl, move! But she couldn't, the message was lost somewhere on its way to her arms and legs. This was it, her fear and shock was going to kill her. Something warm and soft wrapped around her arms, lifting her so fast, her vision became blurred once again. Kiwi gasped. One minute she was about to be trampled, the next, she was flying through the air. When her feet touched the ground again, a safe distance away from the monster, Kiwi looked around. On either side of her, holding her arms, were the pink and green Mews.

"Are you alright?" The Pink Mew asked. As far as Kiwi could gather from her past, quick glances of the Mews, this one was the leader.

After as second of staring in amazement at her, Kiwi nodded.

"Mew Lettuce, stay here and look after her." The Mew ordered.

"Wh – err, no. That's..." What could she say? Yes, protect me so your one short in your fight? No, she knew how to stay out of the way. "There's no need for that. I'll be fine. You go. Go." Kiwi urged.

"Are you sure?" They asked.

Kiwi insisted that she would be fine on her own. Just as they were about to return to the battle, a small voice chirruped from above.

"Good luck Lettuce, good luck Ichigo." All three of them looked up to see what almost looked like ball of fluff with crimson wings, tail and the biggest pink eyes imaginable.

The Pink Mew smile, but only a little. "You look after her then, Masha," she told it and with that, the two girls returned to the fight. Kiwi watched the Mews dodge the animal's attacks with great curiosity, unaware that the fluff ball hovering about her, calling for Ichigo to come back. Suddenly, the small robot grabbed a thick lock of Kiwi's hair in its mouth and began to tug on it.

"Ow." She cried in pain as it tugged and tugged. "Leggo! Leggo!"

The fluff-ball voice called out again. "Ichigo! Ichigo! Mew Mew! Mew Mew!" But no one other then Kiwi was paying attention to it. Kiwi pulled her hair, attempting to yank it out of his mouth. Masha only pulled back. A single head turned in their direction to watch the tug-of-war. Their eyes widened as they noticed the white mark that the robot was trying to expose to the Mews.

"Leggo!" Kiwi cried once again. As they both pulled against each other, Masha, finally, let go, causing Kiwi to stumble and fall on ground. Angry, confused and most of all, scared of her surroundings, she sat up, half scowling, half regarding the flying, pink, ball of fluff with frightened eyes.

"Mew Mew! Mew Mew!" Masha repeated. He opened his mouth and spat out a golden pendent that landed on the ground beside her. "Mew Mew! Mew Mew!"

This was insane. There was a reason why super people and aliens should stay in stories. Kiwi scrambled to her feet, her pulse increasing every second she stood there. She only needed to look down at the gold pendent before deciding to leave it. It was alien to her and therefore, untrustworthy. Before being able to see the outcome of the battle, Kiwi turned and ran. She ran as fast as she could to the one place she never thought she would ever be running to. Home.

As the girl left, a pale hand reached down and pick up the abandoned pendant. A dark smile spread across his face. The pendants belonged to the Mew's, and they all already had gathered together against him. Or so they thought. Things were about to get interesting.

His plotting was interrupted though, by the voice of an angry angel. "Kisshu!" While all the commotion was going on between Kiwi and Masha, the Mew Mews defeated the chimera animal and were now ready to teach him a lesson.

As if he was going to let them.

Hiding the pendant out of sight, he smiled at the five girls. "Next time," the alien told them, "I'll have a surprise for you." The air around him rippled as he laughed and teleported away.

Ichigo sighed.

"Ichigo! Ichigo!" The little robot, called yet again, this time, catching the Mew's attention. "Mew Mew! Mew Mew!"
