A/N: I hadn't seen anything like this up here before. I've seen one KisshuOC fic it was really bad. It seemed like the OC's sole purpose in life was to be Kisshu's perfect match. I'm really hoping that this one doesn't come off that way.

This is a friendship based romance, meaning that the 'romance' bit doesn't come until quite a bit later. It will follow the normal storyline (with a few adaptations due to the presence of another Mew) up till about episode 39-40ish.

Also, I take bits and pieces from the original amine, the dubbed version and the manga. So this is a bit of a mishmash of all three. See if you can pick what's what, na no da (=^w^=)

Ichigo was hurriedly making her way to Café Mew Mew to slave away for the three evil Demons. The banes of her existence. The villains of her everyday life where she was the damsel in distress needing to be rescued instead of rescuing others. They were the... well you get the picture. They made her do all the work and she was feeling just the slightest but under-appreciated.

She had already been late when she left school five minutes prior and now she was super late. 'Stupid Teacher giving out stupid detentions,' she thought angrily.

Currently, she was a mere 100 metres from the deceitfully cute café and running through the nearby park. As she ran, a small gathered crowd caught her attention. Then she heard the music. It sounded like an acoustic guitar, but it must've had an amplifier of some sort, there was no way it could be that loud otherwise.

Due to her lateness, Ichigo ignored the crowd and kept running. Until she heard the singer, that is. She had never heard a voice so saddening yet so uplifting at the same time. Through the crowd Ichigo caught a glimpse of the mystery girl and was surprised to see her wearing the same uniform as she was.

"The world is full of poets
We don't need any more
The world is full of singers
We don't need any more
The world is full of lovers
We don't need any more..."

The song ended and the crowd dispersed, with a few people dropping money into her guitar case. Now that Ichigo could see the girl clearly she recognised her. The black fringe brushing across her eyebrows and ponytail combination was unmistakable!

"Ume?" The girl looked over.

"Oh, Ichigo," she smiled weakly, "Fancy seeing you here."

"I work nearby. At Café Mew Mew," Ichigo clarified just to be sure. Speaking of which, she looked at her watch.

"Wuahh~! I'm super late! Hey Ume, why don't you come to th-" she trailed off, staring at Ume's throat. Seeming to realise what Ichigo was staring at, Ume's hand flew up to her throat.

"I'vegottogo!" She packed up her guitar and bolted out of there in record time, leaving Ichigo in the dust.

"But wait~! Ume, it's oka-GRR! Why does no one ever listen to me!" Ichigo threw her hands in the air. In doing this she noticed her watch again.

"I'M LAAATE!" Ume heard the scream and chuckled as she imagined Ichigo running frantically to get to work

Ichigo all but fell through the kitchen doors, panting to the point of being unable to coherently form a sentence.

"A-ka-sa-ka-saaan..." On the last syllable, Ichigo fell over flat on the floor "I-I think – I whoo," she exhaled sharply.

"Would you like some water?" he asked politely, with his unique brand of charm that makes most girls weak at the knees. Ichigo was already on the floor so she just nodded while trying to get up. Keiichiro got her the water and helped her up onto a seat. When she calmed down enough to talk, he was surprised with what he heard.

"I think I found another Mew."

"That's not too surprising. I did say there were five of you, didn't I?" Keiichiro didn't seem too concerned.

"She's in my class, it just surprised me a bit that's all," Ichigo reasoned.

Keiichiro looked intrigued, "In your class. Wow. The odds of that are one in a million."

"More like five million," said a voice from behind Ichigo causing her to jump out of her seat.

"SHIROGANE!" she screeched. "Why do you have to pop up out of no where all the time!"

"Actually," Keiichiro interrupted. "He was there the whole time."

"Oh, uh. Right. I knew that" Ichigo blushed at her somewhat unobservant nature.

"Ichigo," she turned and found Ryou standing over her "Go get your uniform on. We open in five."

This one's a tad on the short side but the other chapters (ones I've written) are all upward of 1500 words, most reaching 2000. I had written about 5 chapters, however, my dad recently updated the computer without backing everything up because I usually do that myself, so. From chapter 3, I'm starting from scratch.
