Rikka awoke to the sound of her cell phone ringing. She sat up suddenly and glanced about her bed. She was still half asleep as she ran her hand under her pillow and finally found it. She brought it up to her ear and rubbed the sleep from her eyes.
"Huh? Uh, hello?" she mumbled.
"Rikka, where are you?" the voice shouted.
Rikka pulled the phone away from her ear as the person on the other line continued to shouted. She slowly placed it against her ear and sighed.
"Who is this? Ichigo?" Rikka whispered.
"Ichigo?! No, it's Tori! Now, where are you?" Tori shouted.
"Home...I was sleeping," she replied.
"WHAT?! Why?"
"Because it's nine something..."
"Exactly! Think Rikka! Nine thirty, track and Kiyo...and the rest of the team!"
"Oh, no! I'll be right there! Tell coach I'm on my way!"
"Hurry, Rikka!"
Rikka jumped from her bed and grabbed her bag and her shoes. She ran through the door and slid down the stairs. She glided past her mother and escaped through the side door. She slipped her shoes on as she ran and threw her track bag onto her shoulders. She started running faster and fell. She pushed off the ground with her one hand before she hit and continued to run like that.
As she neared the school she pushed herself to her feet and turned into the track feild. She slid across the ground and Tori appeared.
"It's about time...actually, record time!" Tori cheered.
Tori was shorter than Rikka, but only by an inch or two, and had black hair with a tint of purple. She had dark violet-green eyes and she was very strong. She once beat up a guy twice her size. She was known for her strength but also her beauty.
"Rikka! You made it," Kiyo called.
Rikka turned and smiled. That's when she noticed the small girl again. Her face dropped and when Kiyo got closer she smiled again, at least she tried.
"Kiyo-kun, of course," Rikka replied.
"I just thought after last night you'd skip," Kiyo stated.
"Last...night?" Rikka pondered aloud. "Oh, right. Who's this?"
"Oh, my younger sister. This is Shai, Shai this is Obin Rikka," Kiyo introduced.
"N-Nice to meet you," Shai stammered.
"Same here," Rikka stated. "Well, we should warm up."
"C'mon, guys!" Tori announced. "You two are up first, so get busy!"
Tori ran off and joined her division. Shai scurried off to the crowded audiance and took a seat. Kiyo and Rikka sat down and started stretching out with the five minutes they had left. Rikka hadn't noticed, but ever since her DNA had been infused with her animals she had become more fexible. Kiyo took notice when she was finally able to touch the ground with her nose when she stretched out her legs.
"Hey, Rikka," he whispered.
"Yeah?" Rikka asked as she sat up and directed her attention to him.
"You're not going to use your Mew powers to help you win, are you?" he asked softly.
"No! of course not! I don't need that to beat them," she replied.
"Good. Well, see ya at the finish line!" Kiyo cheered as he stood up and ran off to join the other male competitors.
Rikka stood up and watch Kiyo greet the other racers. She turned and saw something she wished she hadn't.
Pai.
She turned back to Kiyo and then to Tori. Finally she looked at her coach and sighed. She ran over quickly with on eye on Pai as his disappeared into the park. Rikka stopped and tugged on her coaches arm.
"Coach, I feel sick. I'm going to run to the bathroom," she stated.
"Do you want someone to accompany you, Rikka-chan," he asked.
"No, sir. I'll be fine," she replied.
She turned and started running, Kiyo looked up and saw her turn the bend. He didn't think, he just took off after her.
Rikka jumped into the bushes and when she emerged in the park she was all Mew'ed up. She climbed to her feet and fluttered her wings to reveal them of the bush's leaves. She looked up at the top ot the slide and glared at Pai.
"I'm surprised. Usually Kish is the one following me around. Either you lik me too or Kish is paying you," she taunted.
"Not quite," he replied as he sat down.
Rikka spun around and slammed her septar into Kish's stomach and he hit the ground. She jumped away and stared up at Pai. She smirked and then glanced to Kish who was trying to climb to his feet and summon his two swords.
"Nice try, you cat fool me that easily," she stated.
"Oh no? What about now?" Pai asked.
Taruto jumped from the tree above her. She turned as he started falling, but she wasn't quick enough. He collided with her and slammed her into the ground when she turned to run. Her septar flew from her hand and Pai caught it with delight. She ly againstt he ground with Taruto on her back and her arms twisted and resting against her back with Taruto's pressure on them.
"Nya-! Let go-!" she screamed.
"Gotchya, kitten," Kish chimed.
"For the last time! MY NAME IS NOT KITTEN!!!! NYA-! Now let go, you brat!" she shouted as she started struggling.
Taruto started laughing as he put more pressure onto her arms. She winced and tried to get away again. Kish sat down on the ground and stared at Rikka's suffering face. Pai smiled and twirled her Snow Septar on his index finger. taruto finally let go and jumped away and as she tried to get up he caused the tree behind her to mutate.
Vines flew from its trunk and wrapped around her waiste. It pulled her back against the trunk and restrained her. The vines coiled around her arms, legs, everywhere. Every time she tried to move they'd get tighter and tighter.
"So, Kitten -"
"N-Not...Ki-Kitten!" she stated between shortening breaths.
"Uh-huh, right. Kitten, are you going to join us now? Or not?" Kish asked proudly. He thought he knew the answer.
"N-No! Not a...chance!"
"Really?" he asked sarcasticly. "Pai."
"Fuu Rai Sen!" he shouted and he sent a wave of thunder at her.
She screamed as the thunder collided into her body. She closed her eyes as the attack died of and she tried to move her hands over her burned stomach and chest. The vines restricted her from tending her wounds. She started crying and she glared up at Kish.
"My...a-answer is st-still...NO!" she cried.
Kish: C'mon, Kitten. Just give in and join us! the sooner you accept our allience the sooner you can stop the pain. So just accept it arleady!
Rikka: No!
Kish: Pai!
Pai: Fuu Rai Sen!
Rikka: Ahhh!
