Anvill99: Yellow, yellow!
Taruto: Um, what? Why'd you say 'yellow'?
Anvill99: That's my way of saying hi!
Taruto:...
Anvill99: D-don't look at me like that! It's perfectly normal!
Taruto: Yeah right, all of you humans are weird.
Anvill99: Just get on with it!
In a dark lab in the basement of the Mew Mew Cafe` a blond teenager was working on a giant dangerous machine. It was big, gray and had random lines of pulsating blue going around it. It was hooked up to a bundle of blue, red, and white wires laying on the ground. The machine was shaped like a ring with no inside and base at the bottom.
When spark of electricity came out of the side where the fair haired (A/N And sexy!) Ryo was working he stepped back in shock.
"Now, for the last step." He muttered to himself, no one was there with him anyways. He knew that if this machine he made actually worked he could win a Noble prize, and help the Mews fight the aliens.
It just had to work first.
He stepped cautiously around the wires to the right side of the machine and unscrewed the lowest panel. Inside there was a switch and two flashing buttons, one red the other one blue. Carefully, he flipped the switch and backed away quickly.
He stood in front of it and saw the middle flash once, then twice. Faster and more frequent every time. 'This is it, It's going to work.' Ryo thought.
Then the middle fully filled out reveling a color changing portal that lit up the whole room with purple blue, and green.
Ryo dropped his screwdriver he was holding and shouted in excitement,
"It worked! My time machine worked! (A/N Quick call Doc!)" He began to jump around in excitement and decided on what to do. "I have to tell the Mews!" Then he dashed upstairs.
The Mews where up in the Cafe` cleaning up after a long business day. Well, except for Mint who only drinks tea all day, but everyone else was helping out.
Lettuce was picking up all the plates on the tables then handing them to Zakuro to clean in the kitchen. Ichigo was wiping the tables clean afterward, and Pudding was mopping the floor as fast as she could. Keichiro was in the kitchen with Zakuro making cakes for tomorrow.
Then all of a sudden Ryo came up slamming the basement door hard and alerting all the Mews.
"R-ryo-san?" Lettuce said in surprise.
"Put down what your doing and come to the basement everybody!"
Everbody else was happy to what he said, except for Mint, who actually wasn't doing anything. " And, why should we?" She asked putting down her tea.
"I have something very special to show everybody!" Shirogane said.
Keichiro observed his friend, he had smudges of oil and other things on his face. His shirt was pretty dirty and scuffed up. Ryo hadn't told Keichiro what he had been doing down in basement for three weeks, but now he was curios.
Keichiro walked over to Mint and smiled that playboy smile and said, "Mint I think It would good if we all went down to the basement to check, right?"
"U-um..." Mint was caught in surprise.
"I'll make you extra cake and tea tomorrow. Alright?" Then he winked.
Mint blushed hard, but still accepted his offer with a tiny nod. He helped her up and took her hand, leading her to the basement with the others.
After going down the stairs all of the Mews had a collective gasp at what was in the middle of the basement floor.
"W-wow! Ryo-san, when you'd get time to make this!" Ichigo asked, her breathe taken away by the total shock of the huge portal.
"What'd you think I've been doing for three weeks?" Ryo said, pleased with reaction towards his creation.
"What is it, na no da?" Pudding asked while poking around various sides of the time machine.
"A time machi- Don't touch it!" Ryo grabbed hold of Pudding and brought her back to the group. "For Gods sake Pudding, you could have activated it on accident! I haven't even tested it yet!"
"Why not?" Lettuce asked.
"I wanted to have all of you down here in case something went wrong and it summoned a dinosaur or something." Ryo said matter-of-factly.
"So, you wanted us down here just in case your creation blew up or something?" Ichigo questioned.
"Pretty much." Ryo said.
Ichigo face palmed and sighed in annoyance. She didn't have time for this, she had a date with Aoymaya!(A/N Tree hugging bastard!)
Zakuro, Mint, and Keichiro stayed silent in the back. Observing the strange creation of Ryo Shirogane.
"Okay, but how do you turn it on?" Zakuro said, finally piping up.
"It's on already, but to get it to work you have to the remote first." Ryo said.
"Okay, where's the remote?" Zakuro asked.
"Ummm...It's around here somewhere." He began to scratch his head in a questioning way, and looked around in every direction.
"RYO! Don't tell me you lost it!" Ichigo shouted into the poor man's ears.
"I-I didn't lose It!...I just misplaced it." Ryo lied.
"Well we better find it then." Keichiro said finally coming to a decision.
Everybody then ran around the room in a panic trying to find the remote to the portal. Lettuce and Ichigo tripped several times. Mint and Keichiro collided and fell to the ground. Pudding was nowhere to be found. It seemed that Ryo and Zakuro were the only ones not falling or bumping into each other.
"Found it! Na no da!" Pudding shouted above the noise as she came back down stairs.
Everybody who was on the ground got up and watched Pudding walk down the stairs, remote in hand.
"Where'd you find it!" Ryo asked in astonishment.
"In the cash register. Na no da."
Everybody glared straight at Ryo's back, 'What's this impending doom I feel all of a sudden?'
"Whoops, must've...misplaced it?" He chuckled nervously. "Alright, now give it back."
He reached for it, but Pudding just dodged his hands with amazing skill. He tried it again, but she moved out of the way. This went on for 1 minute while the Mews watched until Ichigo got fed up.
"Pudding! Just give him the stupid remote!" She shouted and made Pudding flinch.
"No, finders keepers! Na no da!" Pudding said and stuck her tongue out at Ichigo.
"Grrrr...You little br-Mmmf!" Mint covered Ichigo's mouth to keep her from continuing.
"So...What would it take for give it back?" Mint compromised.
"Hmm, I guess some extra candy drops for me and my siblings." Pudding said.
"Alright! We can do that." Mint said, "That was easier than I expected."
"Ok, now give me the remote." Ryo said as he stepped over the wiring to get to Pudding.
"Sure! Na no da!" She gave him the remote, but Ryo took one accidental step backwards and fell on his ass. Then he dropped the remote too.
"Oh, man!" He tried to pull himself up with his elbows and succeeded, but pushed a button on the remote.
"Oh, crap!" He scrambled to his feet with the remote and tried to reverse what he just did. It didn't work though.
The portal started to pulsate slowly, sending a heartbeat like sound in through the air. The portal's blue lines started to turn red, and the portal flashed colors even faster until a rushing wind sound came through it.
Ichigo's eyes widened, "What'd you do Shirogane!" She shouted above the wind.
"I don't know I think I pushed the wrong button!" He shouted back.
"Well no duh!" Ichigo was angry now.
Then the portal stared to show shadows of people and small parts of conversation. The Mews began to get ready for combat, but before they could the portal went off. That's it shut off. Like that. Nothing else.
"Umm...What just happened?" A scared Lettuce said above the new silence that now filled the room.
"I-I don't know." Ryo stepped cautiously over to the machine.
Ichigo checked her watched and said, "Oh man I'm late! I'm late, late for a very important date!" Then she sped off up the basement stairs.
"Well, we lost Ichigo. What about the portal?" Mint said stepping over the wires as well.
"Mint-san, be careful please." Keichiro said, watching her cross the wires to the now vacant time machine. Then decided to help them work too.
While the others worked Pudding looked over all of the wires that were on the ground. She followed the red one to the machine, then the white one, and then the yellow one. She had a little idea when she saw them all hooked up from wall to the machine.
She walked over to the back of the machine, went down on one knee and began to fiddle with plugs. Nobody noticed her still. Not really anybody notices her a lot, but that was okay. She took the red one and replaced it with the white one, and took the yellow one and replaced it with the red one. 'So if this goes here, then...Got it!' She got back up and went to the front of the machine again, looking for the remote.
Pudding walked over to Ryo and started to search his pockets.
"U-um Pudding?" Shirogane asked her when her hands went dangerously low.
"Yeah?"
"Wh-what are you doing?"
"Nothing. Na no da."
Zakuro and Lettuce looked over to them while Mint and Keichiro just smiled.
"Ah! Here it is!" She pulled the remote out of his left pocket and went back to the front.
She looked at the remote and saw a bunch of confusing buttons and one big green button on the top that said 'ON'.
Pudding's finger hovered over the button and everybody turned towards her.
"No wait! Pudding don't push that bu-" Ryo's warning was too late.
The portal whirred and stirred as Ryo grabbed Lettuce's hand and pushed her out of the way. Mint was tackled to the ground by Keichiro when the portal started to flash dangerously, and Zakuro got away just in time before a big flash went off and everything went black.
Anvill99: Oh man, Pudding what have you done?
Taruto: Sh-she's okay, right?
Anvill99: Well, Taruto, people will have to review to find out if they're alright.
Taruto: Please review!
Anvill99: Awww, you like her!
Taruto: No I do not!
Anvill99: Whatever! Till' next time!
