BZZZZZZ…Right. I know what you're up to now. There is no way you will con me into saying what you want me to say. You know what I mean. I'm not going to say it this time. Not like the other six times. I see you're giving up. I knew you wouldn't get me to say Mental-Magikarp does not own Tokyo Mew Mew or any of its contents. Argh! I just said it again didn't I…BZZZZZZ
Ichigo screamed as the MasayaBot came closer and closer to her. Everyone else seemed paralyzed with fear. Maybe it was the sight of the mechanical monstrosity coming closer or it could have been their realization that they were all going to die. It obviously thought Ichigo was the biggest threat because it was coming for her first. One of the enormous scythes came down nearly slicing her arm off and sending large chunks of metal fly everywhere. She rolled to the side just in time and felt the metal slam into her face and blood trickle into her eyes.
Ichigo felt something soft and gentle just to the side of her as she rolled. It couldn't be, could it? She looked up and saw a giant marshmallow! No, wait. It was Kish. He looked taller, stronger and a lot braver than he ever had before. He was stood between Ichigo and the MasayaBot holding a huge twelve inch blade in each hand.
"If you want Ichigo, then you'll have to go through me first!" he yelled. His voice was as fierce as the fire that burned in his eyes. He moved at lightning speed as he aimed a backhand slash at the MasayaBot. He was fast, but the metal monster was faster still. It dodged easily and brought its scythe down again slashing Kish's top open. He winced as another blade lopped off a chunk of his hair. Yet another looked like it was about to carve a slab of his chest out, but Kish parried expertly and slashed at the MasayaBot with such force that it was sent flying.
A smug smile crossed Kish's face as he crouched ready for another attack. He twirled his blades for dramatic effect and, to everyone's surprise, the one he'd just used to attack with shattered into tiny pieces. Ichigo stared absolutely petrified. A cruel grin came onto the MasayaBot's face as it got to its feet. Kish backed away slowly, his remaining blade held like a two handed sword in a defensive position. He'd backed away so far that he now had his back to a huge metal control panel. The MasayaBot crouched, then hurled its massive bulk at Kish who ducked and rolled away from the impact. The metal beast smashed into the machine and literally broke it in two. A huge explosion hurled both Kish and the MasayaBot across the room and into the wall.
Energy started flowing out of the machine and into everyone in the room. Ichigo suddenly worked it out. The machine must have been feeding the power that had been taken from them to the MasayaBot. Ichigo felt her powers and strength returning to her. She looked at the other Mew Mew's. They obviously wanted revenge as much as she did. Ryou, Keiichiro and the aliens looked like they were prepared to kill, they were so angry. Revenge would soon be theirs. Ichigo could tell the Mew Mew's were ready.
With only one chapter to go the Mew Mew's should be prepared for the fight of their lives. Read the grand finale of this tale in chapter eight, coming to a computer near you soon!
