Forgive me, Awokiena! I'm such a procrastinator! But I really want to get this done before MY birthday…so…here's part two of your present!
Otulia: Unfortunately, I'm not in this chapter. Relative disclaimers apply!
The first thing Awokiena noticed was that everything was dimmer; apparently her enhanced demonic senses had returned to normal, boring human senses. And her glasses had reappeared, much to her annoyance.
The second thing she noticed was that the skirt she was wearing was WAY too short for her liking. She had somehow ended up in a Japanese school uniform.
"So I'm in Japan," she deduced. "That must mean…I'm in Tokyo Mew Mew! Cool! I wonder how I'm going to find-Wait! I wonder if anything in this bag will help!"
She quickly opened up the magic rucksack, which had turned into some sort of fuzzy contraption on her shoulder. Immediately, her hand closed around something oval-shaped. She pulled it out and gasped; in her hand she held a yellow pendant with the pink Mew symbol on it.
Before she had time to react joyously at the thought of being a Mew or wondering what red data animal her DNA was fused with, someone nearby screamed.
Down the street, Taruto had released a Chimera Animal, and it was already wreaking havoc. It was some sort of plant, wildly waving vines at everything that moved-and at quite a few things that didn't.
Without even really thinking about it, Awokiena held the pendant up and said, "Mew Mew Nashi, metamorphosis!"
In a burst of light and sparkles, she transformed, her ears shifting upwards and growing, becoming more sensitive, and a pair of leathery wings sprouting from her back. Her school uniform was replaced with tan knee-length shorts and a T-shirt; much more to her liking.
She ran towards the Chimera Animal, too excited to realize that she didn't have a clue as to what she was supposed to do. But if she had realized that, she'd probably just wing it and hope for the best anyway.
Taruto spotted her and paused in his laughter. "Hey, who're you?" he asked.
"Mew Nashi," she replied automatically. "Call off your Chimera Animal, or else…"
"Or else what? You'll take it down? I can always make more, you know."
Mew Nashi made a face at him. "No, or else I'll squish ya'!"
Of course, Taruto didn't call off his Chimera Animal. So Mew Nashi jumped into action.
"Nashi Ribbons!" she called out, and two long white ribbons magically appeared on her wrists. She spun around in a circle, the ribbons flowing around her, the air starting to swirl with it. "Ribbon Nashi Cyclone!"
A moment later, a whirling vortex of wind shot straight at the unsuspecting Chimera Animal, hitting it dead on, and it disappeared. A moment after that, a stunned Taruto was tackled out of the air by none other than Mew Nashi, who had just figured out that she could fly.
"You're so cute!" she squealed, hugging him tightly.
"H-hey! Let go of me!" he protested, struggling to get out of her grasp.
Just then, the other Mews arrived, only to stop dead in their tracks, gaping.
"Why are you hugging TaruTaru?" Mew Purin asked.
"Because he's cute," was her answer.
Fortunately for the alien, that question distracted Mew Nashi enough for him to escape. And escape he did.
Later on, at the café, the girls all sat around a table, watching Awokiena devour cake.
"So what red data animal DNA do you have?" Retasu asked.
Awokiena shrugged. "Some kind of bat, I think."
"How did you end up as one of us, anyway?" Minto inquired. "Shirogane-san didn't know anything about you."
"I think it was part of my birthday present," she mused aloud.
"It's your birthday?" Ichigo blinked in surprise.
"Purin will give a special birthday performance!" the little girl exclaimed, immediately jumping on top of her ball and rolling around the room, spinning plates on sticks as she did so.
Awokiena clapped happily. "Oh!" she suddenly said excitedly. "Purin, I know someone you'd be great friends with! I'll be right back!"
She jumped up from her chair and reached for the invisible border she knew was there, and yanked on it, throwing herself back into InuYasha. Once again, she was a regal wolf demoness on a mission. And that mission; find Shippo.
She sniffed the air, immediately picking out the scent of dog, and finding close to that, a scent that could simply be described as adorable. She took off in that direction, running full speed.
In no time at all, she'd come upon the group, with the new additions of two very angry wolf demons, Koga and Ayame. Everyone looked up when she approached, and she smiled sheepishly, waving. "Hi!"
"It's you again!" Koga and Ayame shouted in unison, the former terrified and the latter furious.
"Uh, yeah…I'm just here for Shippo, bye!" With that, she snatched up the confused kitsune and took off again, reaching out for the invisible border, and yanking on it. Unfortunately, just as she did that, Ayame latched onto her tail, and got pulled into Tokyo Mew Mew as well.
"Get back here, you! I won't forgive you…for…" Ayame had just caught sight of their new surroundings, and was looking around in shock. The girls of Tokyo Mew Mew were in just as much shock, staring at the demon that had just appeared in their midst.
Great. Awokiena thought. Now I have to get Ayame back into InuYasha.
Before she could think of anything, Ayame snapped out of her trance and growled at her. "I won't forgive you for trying to take Koga away from me!"
"Uh, Purin, this is Shippo. Shippo-Purin. Have fun!" Awokiena said hurriedly, plopping the small demon in front of the little girl, and reaching frantically for the border.
When she yanked on it, however, Ayame didn't come with her, and she wasn't in InuYasha. Blinking at her surroundings, she didn't pay attention to where she was going, and walked right into someone.
"Hey, watch where you're going, will ya'?"
Recognition dawned on her. "Hey! You're…"
And, a cliffhanger! Not really, but…yeah. Sorry if it's a bad chapter, I've been fighting writer's block for AGES on it…The next chapter might be just as bad, since I only really had plans for the first and last chapters, lol. Oh well…
And because I feel you all must know, and couldn't figure out a way to work it into the chapter, Nashi is a type of pear, often known as the Japanese pear. And her red data animal was the giant golden-crowned flying fox. Yes, it's a bat. A rather adorable bat, too…
