It was a different afternoon in the Yami house, Heina is lounging on the couch after a short lived yet tiring day of school. Thirza and Destiney both had yet to make it home, however it seemed that from the figure Heina could see out of the window, Destiney would be the first of the two. Grinning, Heina rolled off of the couch, and fell on the floor. She hid in order to scare Destiney when she walked into the house.
The door slowly creaked open, and the sound of the door closing followed footsteps. Destiney, having entered the house did her usual routine of taking off her shoes and dumping her bag on top of them. To her the house was suspiciously quiet, no indecent Anime being watched on the television or mess in the kitchen.
"U-um... O-onee-chan?" Destiney asked, her voice sounded unsettled.
Destiney's movements were slowly and careful, as she walked around the house. Slowly, she came towards the couch where Heina was hiding in wait for her. Once Heina figured Destiney was close enough, she sprang up from behind the couch and imitated a ferocious lions roar. Her younger sister let out a high pitched frightened scream, and then there was a quick burst of light. After the light had cleared, it seemed that Destiney had disappeared.
"Eh... Dest?" Heina asked.
There was no answer for a moment, it was unsettling that she had mysteriously disappeared. Just as Heina was about to call out Destineys name once more, there was a small, squeaky meow. Heina scrunched up her face, they didn't own any cats, so why did she just hear one?
"Alright, what's going on... Here..."
Heina slowly stopped her sentence for what greeted her eyes made her speechless. Looking down on the floor behind the couch, Destiney's clothing had fallen in a pile and from under them, a small black cat with neon blue eyes had poked it's head out.
"What the heck?! Dest, how did you...?" Heina asked her, although right now trying to talk to Destiney was as good as talking to a wall.
Destiney, now reduced to a cat looked up at Heina with a confused look on her face, at the least it seemed. Then, realizing how incredibly large Heina now seemed she took a look at herself. All she could see through her eyes was shiny black fur. Looking at the sight caused her ears to slowly go down flat and her cat like eyes wide with surprise. Heina reached down to try and touch Destiney, and before she could lay the tip of her finger on her Destiney was off like a dart into a different part of the house. Pressing her palm to her forehead and against her dark black hair, Heina jumped off of the couch.
"Thirza's gonna kill me... Please, someone out there who can hear me, give me some sort of good luck."
Just as Heina was going to begin her search, the sound of the door opening once more was a noise that cause Heina to cringe. The sound of Thirza's voice echoing through the house made her back arch straight up. Slowly she began to walk to the front door to greet Thirza, her expression seemed suspicious as well as her movements. She leaned over, showing her head and half of her bust from behind a wall. Seeing Heina's unusual behavior made Thirza raise her eyebrow at her.
"Heina, what did you do now?" Thirza asked, the tone of unamusement was carried with her voice as she took off her shoes.
"What? I was just coming down here t'say 'Hi' to you, and this is what I get?! What kind of a sister are you?!"
"What kind of a sister am I?! The kind that knows enough about you to know that you're hiding something weird!"
"Yeah, I'm hiding something weird! Sure! Wanna know what it is?!"
"What are you waiting for!? Tell me!"
Heina opened her mouth to begin yelling again when they heard a small, meow from down below them. Thirza looked down to have her bright green eyes greeted by the cat form of her twin sister Destiney. Thirza, unaware of who the cat really was, kneeled down and looked into her bright blue eyes with blissful ignorance.
"You snuck a cat into the house? That's it?" Thirza said, slowly reaching her hand over to see if the cat was friend or foe to her. "Huh... She kinda looks like Dessie..."
"Er... No, I didn't sneak a cat into the house." Heina replied.
"Then how did it get in here?"
Thirza reached over and began to pet Destiney, then picking her up and cradling the small, soft cat in her arms. Slowly closing her small eyes, Destiney began to purr contently. It felt nice to be cradled in Thirza's arms, to feel the fabric of her black and blue school uniform against her soft black fur. A goofy smile appearing on Thirza's face, she cuddled her closer and laughed a bit.
"Aww... You're so cute! You really do remind me of Dessie!" Thirza squealed.
"Er... Well, that actually is Destiney." Heina bluntly implied.
"Wait, what did you just say?"
"That cat is Destiney. She turned into a cat when I tried to scare her, it's a pretty funny little story actually!" She said.
There was a sudden silence, with no noise to fill it. Just standing there, Thirza's blank stare at Heina soon became an unpleasant look of anger.
"You... You idiot! Why on earth did you do that?!" Thirza yelled.
Thirzas abrupt yelling quickly sent Destiney off and running for another room in fear. The two of them watched her run off, then they exchanged glances. Heina's glare to her sister was sarcastic and almost teasing, Thirza's in a state of anger that almost screamed the words 'This is your fault' to Heina.
"Oh crap... We need to find her, now." Thirza said in a slightly panicked manner.
"'We'? You're the one who made her run off! You find her!" Heina yelled back.
"And you're the one who made her into a cat in the first place! You need to help!"
"Gah! But you! Fine! I'll help!"
In the midst of their yelling, the sound of knocking at the door echoed through the room. Both of them abruptly stopping, Thirza turned away from Heina and towards the door.
"You start looking, I'm going to see who it is." She said, turning her attention back to the door.
"Whatever..." Heina replied, walking off to begin her search.
Rolling her eyes at Heina, she opened the door to see who it was. Standing before her was a young man, with a rather familiar look of blue eyes and silver hair that made it halfway down his neck. Considering it was the middle of November, he was wearing a black jacket and a white shirt under it with a pair of slightly baggy black denim jeans and blue and black sneakers that were partly concealed by his jeans. The last thing he was wearing was a pleasant grin on his face, one that was also all too familiar to Thirza.
"Yo Thirza, long time no see!" He said.
Thirza blinked for a second in surprise, just standing at the door and staring at him. She then shook her head and looked back at him, her round green eyes displaying her surprise easily.
"How the... Where on earth have you been for the last six months?! You know what, hang on! I have to take care of something!" She said, then darting away from the door.
In a matter or ten seconds or less she made it into Heina's room, and the lovely sight that greeted her was the lower half of Heina's body sticking out from under her bed while the upper half was under it. Thirza's eyelids lowered down and the tone of her voice was the perfect match for her unamused expression.
"I see you found the cat." She said.
"Heck yeah, she's hiding back in the corner there! I can't reach her though..." Heina replied, her voice somewhat strained. The stench of month old food rotting under her bed made it hard for her to breathe.
"Well I'll try to get her out for you, I need you to go to the front door and go say hi to our brother!"
"Wait, which brother?!" Heina asked, her voice said in a rather torn way.
"The big-big brother! Not the little-big brother!"
Without another word, Heina was out from under the bed and out of the room before Thirza knew it. The loud noise of running feet pounding against the hardwood floor followed the sound of Heina's voice yelling "Onii-san!". Hearing the noise of tumbling out at the door, Thirza could tell that Heina most likely tackled him down.
"Weird people get along with weird people, it's how the world works..." Thirza grumbled to herself, getting down on her hands and knees.
Outside of Heina's bedroom, she had already invited the man whom she had called "Onii-san" into her house. Given how Heina and Thirza had referred to him, it was easy to tell that this was their older brother.
"So, really, tell where exactly did you go off to for the past six months?" Heina asked him as she relaxed herself, leaning against the couch.
"I was training." He replied bluntly, jumping over the same couch and landing on his back.
"Oh yeah? Just Martial Arts?" Heina replied, a mischievous smirk tugged at her lip as she prepared to make her way over the couch and jump him; maybe even starting a sibling wrestling match.
Just as he was about to answer and she was about to jump, Thirza slammed the door to Heina's bedroom open. The shivering black cat Destiney was being held tightly and securely in Thirza's arms.
"I got her, Heina!" She yelled.
Flinching from the sound of Thirza's voice, Heina refrained from her position and sighed.
"I can hear ya just fine!" Heina yelled back. "Hey bro, I gatta go do something. Spend some quality time with Thirza and I'll be back in a second."
"Alright then! Jump on me whenever you get back." He replied, watching her walk away.
Taken a bit back for a moment by her brothers remark, she made quick stride to Thirza. Shoving Destiney into Heina's arms regardless of whatever she might do to her, she easily made her present stress known.
"Okay, Heina, I found her! Now you change her back!" Thirza said, releasing her hold of the cat.
"H-how do I change her back?!" Heina replied, holding onto Destiney tight enough that she could hardly breathe.
"You figure it out! I'm going to go make sure Memphis doesn't intrude on you, but try to make sure you're quick!"
"Fine! Fine! I'll think of a way!"
Slamming the door in front of Heina, Thirza walked away from the room while Heina formulated a plan. Silently giving Destiney her condolences, she entered the living room where Memphis was looking through one of Heina's schoolbooks that was carelessly left on the floor.
"If you were wondering, that's hardly touched." Thirza noted.
"You and I both know Heina, I figured that out pretty fast. The pages look brand new anyhow." He replied.
Sparking up a conversation with her brother, within minutes, they heard a shrill scream followed by books and jewelry clattering on the floor. Turning their heads to the direction of Heina's room, Thirza feared that Heina was tormenting Destiney now. Rubbing her temple, she stood up to check on them when suddenly she saw that Memphis was standing right outside of Heina's door with his ear pressed against it. Reacting on her own impulse, she broke out into a quick sprint across the hall. Her arm reaching out for him, she grabbed the collar of his shirt and yanked him away from the door.
"Stand right here Memphis, no questions asked!" She yelled.
"Alright, alright! But are you trying to hide something from me?"
"I am not hiding anything! I just need you to casually stand here!" She exclaimed.
"You're really funny sometimes, Thirza. Alright then, I'll just stand right here casually for you!"
"Thank you!"
She turned away from him and faced the door, then pulling her long charcoal colored hair back and pressing her own ear against the door. Inside she could what sounded like bullying, torment, or worse.
"O-onee-chan! St-stop! Th-that hurts!" Destiney's voice cried.
"Haah... Hold on kid, It's almost there..." Heina said to her.
"B-but i-it's too t-tight, O-onee-chan!"
Thirza's eyes were now apparent with worry and fright, and without a thought she grabbed hold of the door knob. With a sharp movement of her wrist the knob turned and the door slammed open.
"Heina! What the heck are you doing to poor Destiney?!" She yelled.
"W-wuah! D-d-don't l-look at me!" Destiney shrieked.
There was a sudden silence as Destiney hid her face from Thirza and Memphis. Heina, sitting behind Destiney, her hand holding a zipper pull which hung from the back of Destiney's dress. Thirza's face has shock and embarrassment written on it from ear-to ear.
"What the heck do you twothink you're doing?! I'm just doing her a favor!" Heina yelled, offended from the reaction Thirza gave her.
"Nice move, Thirza." Memphis teasingly praised, then letting out a small amused chuckle.
Thirza groaned in annoyance and then punched him in the shoulder, turning to walk away.
"Shut up, I'm going to go do... Something." She said, then taking hold of her schoolbag prior to entering her bedroom.
After Thirza cooled off from the heart attack she was given, Destiney took Memphis out to show him the Cafe. Sitting in her small, quiet bedroom at an old carved wooden desk, Thirza was making an attempt to decipher her Maths homework. To her, the problems were like trying to stop a bomb; she didn't know whether to cut the blue wire or the red wire. Sudden the sound of a fist rapping at her bedroom door loudly made her lose her concentration just when she had figured out what to do. Grimacing, Thirza groaned loudly in frustration and slouched back in her dark brown chair.
"Come in, Heina." She said loudly, the tone of annoyance present in her voice.
The door flung open, and the noise it made when it slammed against her bedroom wall made her wince.
"Why thanks, Thirza." Heina replied to her, walking in and slamming the door behind her.
She walked over to Thirza and kneeled down beside her, looking over her homework and then raising her eyebrow.
"You must be either really bored or really frustrated if you're trying to figure this crap out." She said to her.
"Oh no, I'm perfectly fine!" Thirza replied sarcastically.
"You sound like you're angry, but I'll take your word for it. So anyways..." Heina grumbled softly, the words were hard to make out.
"'So anyways' what?" Thirza replied, staring down her paper intensely.
"I'm sorry for the fiasco I created earlier... There, that make you a bit happier?" Heina asked, looking away.
"Why yes, it did! And now I guess it's my turn... Um... Thanks for changing her back into a human, Heina." Thirza replied, scratching the back of her head.
"Thanks for showin' some gratitude, it wasn't easy changing her back."
Cringing, Thirza turned her head and looked at Heina with slight curiosity.
"And what exactly did you do to change her back, Heina?" She asked, trying to be kind about the question.
Heina's mouth curled up into a somewhat perverted grin, and her eyes narrowed down.
"I kissed her." Heina said teasingly.
"You... You did what?! Heina, you're her older sister!" Thirza yelled at her, anger slightly stimulated in her.
"Calm down! Jeez! And here I thought we were going to have a wonderful sister bonding moment!" She said, unhappy with the reaction she got. "But I fixed her, so it's all good now!"
"For now... But until we tell Memphis about this, we have to be careful about this. I just don't want him weirded out by it... And that means you can't scare her like that! She'll turn into a cat again!"
"Alright! I hear ya! I know! I'll keep it on the down-low until he knows about this! But seriously, I think he'd find it pretty cool. It's not like he's dense anyways, so he would find it out on his own eventually."
"I know... But now, we should probably go start making dinner. It's already five thirty."
Thirza stood up from her seat, and the moment she did her phone began to ring. Turning to where her neon green phone was vibrating. Picking it up and unlocking it, she cringed her face in confusion at the called I.D.; 'Sumiko'. Peering over her shoulder, Heina raised an eyebrow.
"Eh? Why's she calling right now? I thought she was busy with helping the old man out at the cafe." Heina said.
"I'm not sure why she is, but there's only one way to find out!" Thirza replied, the level of curiosity in her voice rivaled Heina's.
Hitting the green answer button on her phone, she pulled her hair back and pressed the phone against her ear. The sound of panting was the first sound to beat against her eardrum. The expression on her face went from curious to confused, and she spoke up.
"Sumiko-chan? Is something wrong?" Thirza asked, slight concern in her voice as she began to exit her room and make her way for the kitchen.
"Thirza-chan, where are you right now?" Sumiko replied, slowly catching her breath.
"I'm at home dude, why?"
"Me and Heiwa-san were on our way to the cafe when we got attacked by these two girls! One of them had Golden blonde hair and these really bright orange eyes, and the other one had green hair and eyes to match. Thirza-chan, if these girls targets are Mews then you three are in trouble!"
"Oh no... Sumiko-chan, thanks for telling me!"
"No problem, be careful Thirza-chan!"
Hanging up the phone, Thirza then raced her fingers across it. Entering her contacts, scrolling down, she finally came across Destiney's number. Calling it, she paced impatiently as Heina looked over at Thirza.
"Hey, what did Sumiko-chan want?" Heina asked as she pulled out some raw fish.
"Sumiko-chan and Heiwa-san got attacked by two girls! Sumiko-chan said that one of the girls had, Well... Um... Blonde hair and orange eyes? And the other one had green hair and green eyes.. So the enemy might be attacking us now!" Thirza explained, groaning in frustration as she continuously called Destiney again and again.
"Hmm... If this has anything to do with that orange haired chick that tried picking a fight with me and Eimi-chan, then I'm taking a wild guess these girls are with our enemy."
"If they're only attacking Mews, then I'm all for your guess. But right now I need to make sure Destiney knows." Thirza said, the tone of her voice both concerned and aggravated.
The faint sound of a cell phone buzzing in Destiney's jacket pocket could hardly be heard against the noise of cars racing down the streets and pedestrians chattering. Destiney was leading Memphis to Cafe Mew Mew. Memphis was curious as to what this place was, as he had no recollection of hearing about a "Cafe Mew Mew".
"U-um... S-so, O-onii-chan, h-how was y-your t-time t-t-training?" Destiney spoke up in question..
"It was just pretty much training. Hard work from dusk to dawn." He replied to her.
"W-wow... I-it must b-be p-pretty intense a-at y-your r-rank..."
"Yeah, but it's worth it. I become better than I was before."
"Y-yeah... U-um, O-onii-chan?"
"What is it Dest?"
"Um, d-don't yo-"
"Tsubasa, just look at this. Isn't it cute? An older brother spending some nice quality time with his sister. Isn't it a pity I have to break it up?"
The unfamiliar voice sent Memphis into a calm defensive mode, and Destiney into a instinctive frightened panic. Looking around frantically, she spotted the origin of the voice. A girl with autumn orange hair that was in a newly done clean and short cut, lightly tanned skin that was covered by autumn colored casual clothing and rather narrow red orange eyes who was sitting on top of a somewhat newly placed bus stop that was about eight yards from Destiney and Memphis. Accompanying her was another girl that was around the same age with long pale blue hair that was being pulled back by a dark blue headband, skin that could compete with the whiteness of Destiney's, and eyes that reminded you of freshly fallen snow.
"The other two mews aren't here, Junanaiko-ka-san. Should we still attack?" The other girl asked.
"Don't worry about them, we can find them later. If you want something to do, keep her brother out of the way while I get the work done."
"You know the work isn't done right unless she transforms?"
"And you know how big brothers are, right? They're protective. Just keep him busy and I'll make sure she takes her Mew form."
"Destiney, do you have any idea what they're rambling on about?" Memphis asked her.
"Um... I-I, w-well I k-kind of-"
Her voice cut off and replaced with a frightened cry as carefully poised hand swept by her chest, just a hair away from hitting her. The orange haired girl had taken the chance she had when Destiney wasn't paying attention to her. Memphis was about to react when the other girl made her move and quickly pulled out a sword and threw it out in front of him; one move and the blade would slice the skin on his neck.
"It seems that I'm your opponent. Do you fight with your fists or with your blade?" She asked.
"I fight bare handed, so it looks like you've got me at a disadvantage." He said, waiting for her guard to go down.
"That's the point; I tend to be unfair. It's convenient for me."
"O-onii-chan... O-oh no..." Destiney's voice squeaked.
The orange haired girl slowly walked up to Destiney, blocking sight of her older brother.
"You should be worrying about yourself right now, the only way either of you are getting out of this is if you transform into a Mew."
"H-h-how d-do y-you know a-a-about M-mews?!" Destiney exclaimed.
"Because that's the reason me and my ally are here, we have a certain job. If you transform we'll make sure your precious Onii-chan get's home safely and we'll guarantee you'll live."
"I-I... B-but, O-onii-chan, I c-can't l-let him s-s-see m-me t-turn into a-a M-m-mew."
"Mori-san." She simply said.
She stepped to the side to show Destiney that the girl had began to cause damage by pressing her sword into the base of her brothers neck. The cut was thin; however blood was slowly finding it's way out.
"Make a move and it's off with your head." The girl with the sword said.
"Wuah! D-d-don't h-hurt O-onii-chan! E-emerald D-"
"Not so fast!"
In the blink of an eye a crimson red figure with the ears and tail of a tiger jumped down and gave the blue haired girl a boot to the blue haired girl fell over from the sudden attack, dropping her blade and landing on her bottom. Once the red figure had stopped moving and gained composure, it was easy to see that Mew Darkness has stepped in and gotten Memphis free to move and protect.
"H-heina-chan!" Destiney said.
"For the last time! It's Mew Darkness!" She yelled back to her.
Running up from behind her, Mew Thirza stopped in front of Destiney. Heina turned to Memphis and gave him a small shove.
"Nice to know you're on board with this. Don't ask questions. Don't freak out or call the cops. Help us take these girls down and I'll make sure Thirza explains everything!" Heina said.
"Don't move the painfully long explanations to me!" Thirza yelled.
"I wasn't planning on asking anything right now. Do what you have to do and I'll help you guys out. And nice costume Heina, it really suits your perverted personality."
"Than- Did you just call me a pervert?!"
"You take pride in it until someone calls you one?"
"No! I mean, gah! Just get your butt ready before I kick it!"
Thirza rolled her eyes at the two and turned to Destiney, holding out her hand to help her off of the ground.
"Next time you leave the house, don't leave your cell phone on vibrate."
"Ehehe... S-sorry, Th-thirza-chan."
"Now, us three can't take down these girls without your help. And it's too late to keep this a secret, so why don't you transform?"
"R-right! E-emerald DNA S-switch!"
In a quick flash of bright, luminous light; Destiney transformed into Mew Destiney. Just after the light vanished, the girl with orange hair made no hesitation to strike at her. Before her hand could hit, Thirza blocked with her lower arm.
"Mew Darkness! You and Memphis take care of the girl with the pointy stick thing! Me and Destiney are going to make sure this girl get's the punishment she deserves!"
"Right! Ahem, Dark Bow!"
Throwing her arm out to her side, Heina summoned her black colored bow. Motioning Memphis, she struck a rather crane like pose looked at the other girl in a rather sassy way.
"Come at me little girl!" She yelled.
"He wasn't kidding when he said you tend to be an idiot."
Holding her sword in hand, she dashed forward and prepared to strike. Her sword just barely reaching Heina, when she was just as far away as paper was thin to slicing through her she was stopped by Memphis who had grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
"She can be an idiot, a lot of times she can be. But sometimes the idiot knows what she's doing!" Memphis said.
"What do you two think you're doing?!" She asked.
"Making sure you know not to come back after us!" Heina shouted.
Gaining a fairly good balance, Heina jumped up into the air and pulled one of her arms back, summoning an arrow in her bow. Knowing what would happen if she kept acting weak and just stood there, the girl elbowed Memphis and pulled away. Turning around, she slashed him in the arm as quick as she could; causing a wound and ripping his jacket. Moving to strike her sword again, before she could hit her sword was grabbed by Memphis, holding the blade still with his bare hands.
"You should have payed attention to the girl with the bow." He said.
Her eyes going wide in realization, she heard Heina yell out her attack. Releasing her sword, Memphis ducked as the girl turned around to be greeted by a crimson red arrow speeding at her at the speed of light and hitting her chest, sending her flying back into a lamp-post. Standing back up, Memphis let out a sigh of relief.
"I'm so glad I didn't have to hit her."
"Ha! You're such a typical boy!" Heina yelled at him.
"Keep your focus Heina! If you don't pay any attention that girl's going to sneak up and stab you"
"Yeah yeah, don't get your panties in a twist."
Annoyed by Heina's last remark, Memphis grumbled a bit and prepared himself again to see if the girl would stand up or not. The white haired girl just sat there, her head hanging. Heina cocked her head to the side and then narrowed her eyes. It began to sound like the girl was weeping. Memphis turned over and looked directly at Heina, then turning back. and slowly walking towards her with extreme caution. Something about her crying felt suspicious.
Once he stepped close enough, she sprung up and prepared to strike in spite of her injuries. In defense, Memphis grabbed hold of her sword and used a greater amount of force than she was to knock her back down. But in turn for saving himself, his hands were cut and bloodied. Back on the ground and her sword far from her; she began to reach for it once more when a crimson red and jet black high heeled boot stepped on it. Looking up, she saw Mew Darkness who had her bow in hand and a grin in preparation to strike.
"Give up yet?" She asked.
"I..." She then smiled in a pleased way. "My mission is complete, I put my hands into the air and surrender."
Heina and Memphis exchanged confused looks and then looked back at her.
"What the heck are you talking about?" Memphis said.
"My mission is complete; that is all I will explain."
"I think she's lost it dude." Heina said.
He rolled his eyes at Heina and looked down at his hands, grimacing slightly at the sight
of blood.
"Damn... Heina, do you think we should see if Destiney and Thirza are doing alright?"
"Eh, they'll be fine. Well, Thirza will be- Yeah, we should help. This chick won't be going anywhere anyways."
Heina turned over to look at Destiney and Thirza's half of the battle which wasn't far at all.
They could see the girl pound at Destiney with her fists and then get pounded by Thirza's fists and hit by Destiney's attack, then Thirza getting hit along with Destiney and they both go back at her with their energy-based attack. Looking at each other, Heina jumped up onto a lamp post and awaited for her chance to step in as Memphis also took position to prepare; both keeping close eye on the white haired girl to see if she would try to pull something.
"Th-thirza-chan!" Destiney squeaked, ducking down to avoid a punch.
"Right Dessie! Shining Starlight!
Throwing her arm out, she threw off a quick attack the hit the girl in her side. Stumbling
over, she growled in frustration and quickly got back up. Despite the fact that her mission
was complete as well, she had gotten caught up in the heat of her fight. Throwing her
arm out, she slammed her fist into Destiney's side. Letting out a loud cry, she was
thrown onto the ground. Dusting off her hands and looking at her bruised body she turned
around only to see Memphis' face directly in front of hers. About to kick him in the shin, he
grabbed her ankle and lifted her up.
"Don't touch my little sister ever again, or you'll be facing me. Dest!" He said.
"H-huh?" She said, picking her head up to look at him.
"Get up a teach this girl here a lesson." He said, smiling slightly at her.
"R-right, O-onii-chan! Th-thirza-chan!"
"I'm right here with ya Dessie!"
Helping Destiney off of the ground, she lifted her off of the ground and threw her up into
the air, then leaping up with her.
"Shining Starlight!"
"R-r-ripping M-moonshin-"
"That's enough of this!"
Their attacks fizzling out and canceling, a figure stepped out from the area which had
been cleared of pedestrians since the battle began. He looked similar to Memphis;
however he had jet black hair that was in a rather long cut and narrow crimson red eyes,
like Heina. Noticeably as if she knew
him, the white haired girl stood up and looked directly at him, gripping onto the same
lamp post she had been slammed into for support.
"Yami-san, I apologize. This got out of hand."
"Yami-san, what... The heck?!" Heina said to herself.
"You weren't supposed to get yourselves killed! You were supposed to gather
more information about the Mews." He said, anger imminent in his voice.
"Wait a second... Mephisto?" Memphis asked, surprised.
"Mephisto-kun! I..." The orange hair girl said.
Looking at her slightly drowned his anger, however it was replaced with more of a different emotion that was too vague to tell what it was.
"Shukumei-chan, Tsubasa-san, we need to go. You have no more business here."
"Yes, Yami-san." The white haired girl said.
In a quick dash, she sliced at Memphis' arm with the last bit of strength she had to
endure the back pain she had and caused a gash. The sudden shock of
pain caused him to release Shukumei and step back.
"Let's go, Shukumei-chan." He said.
"Wait a second Mephisto, you're not going anywhere until you explain!" Memphis
yelled.
"I have nothing to explain brother! I would ruin the big surprise I have for you and the sisters later. Now then, Akumi!"
Suddenly, a portal made itself apparent from behind Mephisto. Quickly dashing to grab him, Memphis reached to grab him but with no luck Mephisto entered and the portal disappeared before he could get anywhere close. Behind Shukumei and Tsubasa as well portals opened up; both of them stepping in and disappearing in the blink of an eye.
"There isn't any way to go after them, we don't know where they are now." Thirza said.
"We can't go after them anyways, Memphis and I need some stitches and I think Destiney needs a nice, long bath." Heina said.
"Or an X-ray." Thirza grumbled.
"She got up, didn't she?!" Heina yelled.
"I-I d-d-don't n-need an X-x-ray!" Destiney squeaked.
"Heina's right, if she can get up and move she'll be fine. She's just going to have a big blue mark on her waist to match her eyes." Memphis said. "And on the way up there..." He then glared at the three of them. "You have to explain this Mew business to me."
"R-right..." She said.
Late at night when they all got home from Heina's and Memphis' treatment, Destiney sat in the bath relaxing after she had washed herself off. She sighed, and looked at her side a bit, there was a large bruise making itself apparent. Groaning and sinking herself low into the water, she closed her eyes.
"I-I'm g-g-going to b-be st-stuck with that f-for weeks..." She said.
Suddenly, her cell phone started going off from inside of her jacket. Sitting back up, she reached over and messed through her jumbled pile of clothes for her phone. Pulling it out she read that someone had sent her a text, the name of the contact being "Onee-chan." Gasping in surprised, her phone slipped out of her hand and almost fell into the bathtub. However instead it sat there in the bubbles with something under them holding it up. Blushing of embarrassment, she picked it back up and unlocked the phone to read the text.
"Hello, Destiney-chan. It's been a rather long time since I've spoken with you, hasn't it been? Ever since I started college and you started High-school we've been out of contact. I am texting you to say that I am well and I hope that all is well with you as well. I recieved a text from Heina earlier saying that she and your older brother had to receive medical treatments today, did something happen? I hope that Thirza and Heina are taking good care of you. Let's meet at a Coffee shop sometime soon when neither of us are busy, as I have had a rather hectic life lately... Ah, I suppose it is good to be kept on your toes.
From, Onee-chan.
A small yet happy smile spread across Destiney's face as she set the cell phone back down.
"I-I love m-m-my O-onee-chan, m-my O-Onii-chan, I'm s-so h-h-happy th-that I h-have sisters a-and an o-o-older b-brother w-who l-l-love me and a-are th-there for m-me... B-But... Mephisto O-Onii-san. Wh-what w-was h-h-he doing? S-something t-tells me... Th-that s-something b-bad i-is going to h-happen in the f-future..."
