Chapter Two: More Guests
BOO! Who's ready for more Halloween tricks and treats?!
First off, I'm happy I've gotten some reviews for this story and I hope this chapter will answer the one question many of you were asking.
Disclaimer: I do not own Tokyo Mew Mew, if I did my work would be canon!
Alright! I'll let you guys read! Enjoy!
Ichigo opened the door, to find her friends Retasu and Minto. "Hi, guys! So glad you could make it!" the witch happily greeted. Retasu smiled, "Thank you for inviting us! I've been looking forward to this party all year!" she said eagerly as Ichigo moved aside to let her and Minto in. Looking around the den, Minto grinned. "Nice job with the decorating... Way better than last year." Retasu nodded, "You did a great job, Ichigo!"
Midorikawa Retasu was a creature from the Black Lagoon but she was much prettier than most of the creatures. She was fair-skinned and covered with delicate scales. Her hair was long, curled and bright green. She had green fins for ears and seashells pinned in her hair. She had kind ocean blue eyes behind cute nerd glasses. Retasu was very beautiful and seemed more like a mermaid than a fish monster. She wore a simple scaly green and black dress with glowing sequins. She had a leather belt on her waist with small blue vials attached. Being a fish creature, she needed to keep hydrated... Each of those vials gave her enough water for hours at a time. Her legs were long and her feet were bare. Between her toes were thin silk-like webbing.
Aizawa Minto was a siren. A beauty that could lure any male creature into her palms... But she had vowed to never use her magic on anyone close to her friends... Minto was a high member of society and was a snob, but she was Ichigo's first female friend and they were very close. Minto was beautiful, she had dark blue hair that was curly and shoulder-length. She was fair-skinned and her eyes were an alluring blue. Her lips were pale and accented her smooth skin. Minto wore a blue dress that reached her mid-thigh. The dress was smooth and had small blue feathers strewn around, it was sleeveless and fit her figure perfectly. On her back was a small pair of blue wings with smooth feathers. Her small legs were smooth and her feet had little flats with sparkly feathers pinned on.
Ichigo shut the door and watched as Minto sat down on a red chair with her legs crossed. "I'm eager to see what you and that hunk of a roommate have set out for food this year..." Ichigo rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. "Ryou has worked hard and I greatly appreciate his help." she said, wiping her hands on her skirt.
Speaking of the blond boy, he came in with two plates of steaming white ghost cookies. "Ichigo, the cookies are ready." he said, looking over to see Minto and Retasu sitting in the den. Smiling gently, he greeted them with a hello.
Ichigo then proceeded to help Ryou bring all the prepared food into the living room and onto the coffin table. Platters shaped like pumpkins, tombstones, bats, skulls and spiders were arranged in circles around a large display stand that held a five layer black cake with orange spiderweb designs on the black icing. On the top was a candied jack-o-lantern smiling creepily.
Ryou wiped his hands on his pants as Ichigo admired the work. Turning toward him with a happy smile on her face, she said, "Thank you so much! I appreciate the help!"
Ryou felt his cheeks heat up at her words but he looked away. "I-I'm going to check in the drinks!" he said as he moved into the kitchen again.
Ichigo giggled, Minto and Retasu giggled as well. "He's such a nice guy." the witch said.
Eeeeeeeaaaaaaahhhh!
More guests were arriving! Ichigo floated over to the door, grabbed the handle and opened it.
An eager smile appeared on her lips. Before her stood Fujiwara Zakuro, Fon Purin and Akasaka Keichiro.
"Hello Ichigo." Zakuro greeted, a calm smile on her thin lips. "Good evening, Zakuro-san. You too Purin and Akasaka-san!" Ichigo greeted and stepped aside to let her guests in. "Good to see you again, Ichigo-san." Keichiro said warmly.
Ichigo closed the door, and watched as Minto immediately rushed to Zakuro's side. The siren was always eager to see her 'onee-sama'. Purin was hugging on Retasu while Keichiro was talking to Ryou in the kitchen.
Keichiro was a walking corpse. He was very pale and half of his appendages were bone. Keichiro wore a white shirt with tears in it, black pants and brown loafers. His hair was long and brown, he always kept it tied at the nape of his neck. His right arm and left leg were pure bone while his face was still covered in flesh, he was quite handsome. His eyes were dark and colorless but he was still kind. He had died before Ichigo was born and was resurrected as Ryou's gaurdian. He was a kind man who loved to bake and cook, a man of high domestic skills as well. Keichiro was a pure gentleman...
Ichigo smiled as Purin tackled her in a hug, Purin was part werewolf and she was always full if energy. She nuzzled Ichigo happily, her tail wagging. "This is goin to be so much fun, Ichigo-onee-chan! Na no da!" she squealed.
Purin was fairly small but what she lacked in size she made up for in energy. She was covered in a thin coat of golden brown fur that was smooth and looked like silk. She had blonde tresses that were lightly braided, she had big brown eyes that made her look adorable instead if terrifying. She had a tiny black nose and sharp canine teeth. Purin also had claws on her feet and hands that could retract, her feet were always bare. Purin wore an orange Chinese sleeveless shirt and matching pants. The bottom of the pants were tight on her calves. Behind her waved her little furry tail. She was absolutely adorable...
Ichigo stood with Purin still hugging her, looking down at the little girl, she smiled. "Ne, Purin?"
Purin looked up at her, "I invited him too." she whispered.
Immediatly knowing who 'he' was, Purin grinned widely as she squealed. "Awesome! I get to see him again! Na no da!" she cried. She jumped up and down eagerly as the others looked toward the energetic girl.
Ichigo giggled at the girl's excitement. She had so much energy! She was now dancing about happily while the others laughed and watched.
Eeeeeeeaaaaaaahhhh!
The doorbell rang eerily again as Purin continued to dance about. Ichigo turned and opened the door after smoothing out her skirt again.
Once the door was open, Ichigo was looking up at Ikisatashi Pai and Ikisatashi Taruto The first and third sons of the Phantoms.
"Hello, Pai-san! Taruto-san! Good evening!" she greeted happily, offering them a way in. Pai nodded solemnly as he moved quietly inside. Taruto followed, "Thanks, from both of us." he said as he followed his big brother into the living room.
Ikisatashi Pai and Ikisatashi Taruto were the sons of the head of the Phantoms, a creature that could become invisible, go through walls and fly. They were a quiet family but they were happy and well-functioning.
Ikisatashi Pai was the oldest son and a genius. He was tall and stoic. He had violet hair and pale skin, his eyes were matching his hair. Pai wore a dark gray shirt and crisp black pants. He wore shiny black shoes and had a dark trench coat on his shoulders. On his head was a gray fedora. He looked like a mysterious figure from an old forties movie... Though he was quiet and intimidating, he was in a relationship with Retasu.
Ichigo found it absolutely adorable that they were together. They both loved books and were quite smart! They were such sweethearts!
Purin and Taruto however, though they were friends, Purin was very persistent. She loved tackling him in hugs and keeping him close. They did enjoy pulling Halloween pranks together though...
Taruto was the youngest child of the Ikisatashi family. He was mischievous and loved pulling pranks throughout the year. Since he was young, Taruto had not fully developed into his abilities. He could fly but he could not become completely invisible or fly through walls. Taruto was still a cute young man. He had brown hair tied in cute pigtails but tonight he had his shoulder length hair tied at the nape of his neck. He had orange eyes and pale skin like his brother's. Taruto was wearing a dark red collared shirt and black pants. He wore brown laced loafers and a black coat. He had no hat on his head like his brother.
Everyone seemed to be accounted for, Ichigo scanned her living room for anyone missing.
She invited the siren, the werewolf, the corpse, the vampire, the fish maid and the phantoms.
Ichigo frowned as she tried to think of someone who she had invited but the name did not come to mind, much to her annoyance. She pressed her knuckle to her lip as she thought.
Who else did I invite?
Suddenly, a pair of arms wrapped around her waist and pulled her back. Ichigo squealed as her back fell against a firm chest. The others were now looking at her.
A soft voice whispered into the girl's ear: "Good evening, my strawberry witch."
Large black feathers fell from the air and onto the carpet as silence filled the room.
Ha ha! More of our characters have appeared! The party will soon commence!
