Akuma- Hey there readers.
Tarou- Suika, Ichigo and Kisshu won't be here today. So I'm helping her with the hosting.
Akuma- True. But its too quiet here, Let me add a few people in. *snap her fingers, Pai and Hiro appear*
Pai- Need some help with something?
Hiro- Because we're in the middle of doing some research about earth soil.
Akuma/Tarou- *sweat-dropped* That's it?
Hiro/Pai- Yes.
Akuma- Will you and the two smarty-pants do the honor of doing the disclaimer, Tarou?
Tarou/Pai/Hiro- Of course. AkumaMurasaki doesn't own Tokyo Mew Mew.
Akuma- On with the story.
What's Akuma Hiding
"Don't worry, dearest sister. I will destroy those who have turned you into an animal, even if it means that they're your friends." She grinned, showing her fangs and knowing that the certain brown haired girl had joined the newly renamed team, Tokyo X. "Let the game begin." With that she disappeared.
At the café, everyone was done reporting Ryou and Keichiiro about their battle. "So there's been a zombie on the loose?" Ryou questioned, hoping he got the information right. The girls, except Akuma nodded saying yes. "It's ghoul to be exact." Akuma corrected. All eyes stare at the dragon Mew.
"What's the difference between them?" Tarou asked, confused about the word zombie and ghoul. "Zombie is a dead corpse walking around without its brain, while ghoul is a corpse that reanimates by a wicked spirit or black magic." Akuma answered. Everyone was surprised that she knows about those things very well by looking at it.
"How do you know so much about it, Akuma-san?" Lettuce asked as Akuma wide-eyed. 'Crap. I forgot I'm not supposed to tell anyone about that. Gotta think, quick.' She thought of an excuse to get her out from this trouble. "Books." Akuma said, a little bit too quick. The Mews, aliens, Ryou and Keichiiro stare at her in confusion. "About myths and legends." Akuma finished.
"Oh." Everyone replied. But Tarou was curios about her actions, like she was hiding something. 'She's hiding, I know it. Better follow her, just in case.' Tarou thought. Everyone went back to their job, well Ichigo and Akuma to be exact. Mint was drinking tea and ordering Ichigo to do her work, Pudding and Suika was performing in front of the customers, Zakuro was scaring everyone away, Lettuce accidentally broke some plates and Akuma was having a hard time trying to ignore the boys staring at her and Ichigo was basically working hard. The aliens decided to hang around in the basement with Ryou, while Keichiiro was in the kitchen baking.
After the café closed, the girls went to the changing room and get changed. Akuma was the first to come out within few seconds. The others came out after few minutes, shocked that Akuma always beats them in changing. "What are you guys staring at?" Akuma asked, the Mews shook their head and Akuma sighed. They all went home and Akuma was on her way home, little did she know that someone was following her.
'Once I know what she's hiding, I'm outta here. She's really creeping me out.' Tarou thought, shuddered about what happens next. Once they arrived to her house, his jaws dropped. 'That's not a house, it's a mansion.' He thought in surprise. Her 'house' was two storeys high, a huge garden filled with rose bushes, most of the bushes were filled with red and black roses. The gate was painted black and the house is pretty much the same, like a haunted house, mansion to be exact. Akuma walked in and Tarou followed her. The mansion was huge, there's a black chandelier hanging from the ceiling, a huge stair case in the middle of the room leading to the next floor, a lot of doorways to every part of the room. There are black candles lighted everywhere, from the front door to the top floor.
'Wow, I didn't know she was that rich. Almost richer than that Mint girl.' He wondered. When he turned around, he noticed that she's gone. 'Oh man. Now how will I find her? There're hundreds of doors leading to who-knows-where.' He thought, regretting about his plan to follow her. With that, he went in to every room in the mansion to find her.
Akuma's POV
When I went in to my mansion, I noticed that someone is following me. I decided to shrug that of, since I already know who that is. So I kept walking to my room, which is on the top floor with the black door and doorframe. That's when I didn't felt someone following me.
"Maybe he's lost." I muttered and went to the mirror. "Akane!" I called. The mirror began to get foggy and a girl looks like her appeared in the mirror. She wore a black Victorian dress and had very pale skin, her eyes are deep red and her hair is tied up in the same style as me.
"Onee-san, wonderful to hear from you again." She said sweetly. I knew she had something to do with the ghouls that attack recently. "Did you happened to use your undead spell to attack us?" I asked, hopefully she answer my question sincerely.
"I have no idea what your talking about." She replied. I can see the smirk on her face, I'm sure that she knew what I'm talking about. "You knew exactly what I'm talking about. You use those spells to attack us, including me. WHY?!" I yelled at the last part. All she did was giggled and disappeared into the mirror.
I punched the mirror and it shattered into pieces. I cursed her name under my breath and walk out the door angrily. As soon as I opened the door, Tarou was there, panting. I wonder what happened to him while I was in my room.
Tarou's POV
I went in to every room to find her but no such luck. I've went into the kitchen. It was painted dark gray and everything was clean and tidy, my first thought was that it was filled with spider webs and dust. I went towards the refrigerator and grab a drink. 'Hope she doesn't mind letting me to have a drink.' I thought. I opened the refrigerator door and it was filled with drinks and blood packages. 'Wait. BLOOD PACKAGES?!' I mentally screamed. Why would she need those things?
'Maybe those were from her last Halloween party or something.' I cooled myself down and went to grab a canned drink. When I opened the can and drank it, I spill it out. It taste like tomato juice, I looked for the label to the canned drink and it printed out 'Fresh Tomato Juice'.
"Yuck, I know humans are strange, but I didn't know they were that strange." I said, throwing away the can. I went in to another room filled with musical instruments; I assumed that this was the music room. In the center of the room, there was a giant organ. I tried playing one key and it sounded creepy. After that, I went in to the next room and it was empty. When I tried walking in, the creak sound was heard and a lot of red glowing dots formed on the ceiling. I used my night vision and saw that they were not glowing dots, they were bats. They started flying around the room and escaped through the door.
"Bats? Are you kidding me?" I asked incredulously. "First the ghouls, then the speed of her changing, and then the creepy mansion filled with weird things like blood packages, mysterious organ and bats. What's next?" I asked, counting out how many weird things about her. Suddenly, I heard Akuma's voice.
"WHY?!" she yelled. I can feel the fury in her already. I teleported to her front door to her room and realized that why didn't I think of teleporting to her room before.
"I'm such an idiot." I cursed myself. When I was about to open the door, she came out looking less surprise.
Normal POV
"Why are you standing there for?" Akuma questioned. Tarou had lost for words when she didn't even bother asking why he is following her. "I know you followed me here, but you didn't have to be invisible to follow me." Akuma finished. Tarou was dumb-found when she had answered his question, like she had read his mind.
"Umm… Why are you yelling exactly? " he asked. Akuma went pale, thinking he could have heard her conservation with her sister. "What's it to you?" Akuma spatted, thinking why he is so nosy to her life. "Well for one thing, you had a creepy mansion with creepy stuffs like bats, and blood. I mean, what's with the blood packages?" He questioned. I forgot to store away my blood packages.
"Well I-" she was cut off by her Mew pendant beeping. 'Saved by the mission.' She relaxed. Then she pulled out her pendant and heard Ryou's voice. "Everyone, we had another attack at Inohara Park again. Tokyo X! Go!" Ryou informed form the pendant and went off. "Let's go." Akuma informed and he nodded.
"MEW MEW AKUMA! METAMORPHOSIS!" she called out and transformed into her Mew form. Tarou grabbed her shoulder and teleported to the park, all the Mews and aliens were there. Now, they were facing more ghouls. 'Oh no. Why is she doing this?' Akuma thought, trying not to look worried.
"Strawberry Bell!"
"Mint Arrow!"
"Dragon Sword!"
"Lettustanets!"
"Pudding Ring!"
"Zakuro Whip!"
"Suika Fan!"
"Akuma Blade!"
"Dark Sword!"
"Dark Bow!"
"Dragon Daggers!" they called out their weapons and ready to fight. Taruto and Pai had taken out their weapons and aim for the ghouls. They used their special attacks and the ghouls were destroyed one by one. When all the ghouls were gone, they heard giggling above them. They all had their head up to see the hooded girl on the sakura tree.
'What are you planning now?' Akuma thought as worry began to build up inside her. The mysterious girl jumped down from the tree and landed safely without a scratch. She looks similar to the girl in Akuma's mirror and she started to walk towards them.
"So this is the Tokyo X I've heard. Please, she could have joined a better team than joining these animal children." She complained. The Mews, except Akuma and Zakuro, were frustrated and Ichigo went in front of her and began to complain. "Hey! We're not children, we're mid-teens." Ichigo argued. Akuma walked next to her. "What do you want?" She asked.
"I want to reclaim what's rightfully mine." She replied, the teams, except Akuma, were confused about her answer. "But we don't have anything that belongs to you." Lettuce said, the girl's smirk turn to anger as the green Mew said those words. "Yes, you do." She said, her finger was pointing to Akuma and they all stare. "You have my sister."
"Who are you anyway?" Zakuro started. The girls' smirk grew wider and pulled the hood back, revealing her face. "I'm Akane, the pureblood vampire of the Murasaki family and… Akuma's twin sister." She replied, her answer shocked the Mews and the aliens that she's a vampire and Akuma's twin sister.
"It's a pleasure meeting you, Tokyo X, Onee-san. We'll play again next time." with that, she disappeared. Now all eyes are staring at the dragon Mew, thinking that she had a good explanation about the girl and their connections between them.
"I'll explain everything once we head back to the headquarters." Akuma said calmly. Everyone transformed back to their original human form and head back to Mew Mew Café.
Akuma- Done. *exhausted*
Tarou- Are you ok?
Akuma- Yup, just tired from typing the story too quickly. Now my hand sores.
Hiro- Pai will help you with the sores, while my brother and I will do the rest.
Akuma- Alright. *Pai went over to her and heals the sores*
Hiro/Tarou- Please review, so the next chapter will be updated soon.
