Chapter 10: Limon and Qkumber
XD Yay! Chappie 10! This chapter's a bit more important, some things are said that are a little, uh, how should I put it? Foreshadowing? Yes! Foreshadowing! XD Big words!
Shugar's plans are going to just get eviler and eviler… MWA HA HA! I have such a twisted mind…
jenoker,
Anzu is Mint's daughter. There's way too many characters but most of them aren't important. Anzu isn't really a big character but she is kind of important… Yuugami and Hoshi will be more important later on. And yes Shugo Chara will be mixed in. But don't worry, I wont give anything big about the actual series away and I wont make it so you HAVE to have watched it to have a clue whats going on… Well, I'll try o.O My nerdy-ness kinda went wild…
SillyStreamers,
No you were not going on about Ichigo (surprisingly) you were going on about Tsubaki from Soul Eater. DWMA is Death Weapon Meister Academy, from Soul Eater. Remember….? And yes, we will provide the good people with some Succubi and Vampires CX
Ume's P.O.V.~
I sighed pulling a piece of paki from my bag. It had been a very fun day but now I was ready to go right to bed. The sun had slipped away and the moon had taken it's place. I stuck the paki in my mouth and pulled out my phone. Kanzou had texted me about a million times asking where I was and if I was ok. He's so over protective.
'im fine' I texted back. 'I was out w/ YuuChan.'
'oh' was all he said. He knew Yuugami and Hoshi too, we had been friends with them for a long time.
I stuffed my phone back in my pocket and pulled my paki out of my mouth. I sighed running a hand through my hair. Everythings changing.
I'm no longer human.
Yuugami is moving.
My mom has a new ALIEN boyfriend.
Earth is being attacked.
I have new friends to deal with.
New BOYS to deal with…
"Why does it have to be so hard?" I murmured looking up at the moon and the distant stars. Somewhere out there there was a whole different planet. Full of living, breathing, beings with pointy ears, cat eyes, and fangs. "I wonder what it's like…"
"What what's like?"
I spun around to see Kake floating above me. I reached for my pendant but he held up his hands. "I am not here to fight Mew Plum. I am aware Kisshu is residing in your home and that you are aware that Shugar is acting on her own accord, correct?"
I looked him over cautiously. "Yes."
He nodded lowering his hands. "Have you seen Pai then?"
"No, only Kish and Kompieto." I replied stiffly.
He nodded. "I see, I am sorry for disrupting you. Oh, and its quite nice, our planet." He smiled slightly before teleporting away.
I relaxed slightly. "I guess he's good too…"
I turned and continued walking. The sounds of the city were soothing in a way. I released a long breath closing my eyes.
Suddenly I felt a pair of hands on my shoulders. My eyes flew open to be met with a set of miss matched eyes, one bright orange the other a bright blue. "Tsk, tsk, someone so small does not deserve my Kommy-Kun's affection…" She pulled back, smiling in this creepy way.
This alien was very scary looking, even more than Shugar and her ugly scowls. She had this twisted smile and a dangerous gleam in her strange eyes. A long scar started at the corner of her left eye and ended close to the corner of her mouth, her left ear was missing, and at closer examination I realized scars were all over her body. She had short, pixie cut, coral pink hair, and wore an old, baggy, grey tank top and ripped up brown shorts.
"Wh-who are you?" I took a step back, more than a little creeped out by this new alien. She looked a few years older than me.
She smiled bigger, cocking her head to the side. What's with these aliens and their head movements, seriously? "Why, I'm your death…" She laughed. "Don't worry, we'll have LOTS of fun first…" She raised a hand and a large golden machete appeared there.
I pulled out my pendant but she knocked it from my hands. I took a step back from the still grinning girl. She was smiling but… I could see the tears threatening to spill from her eyes. "Who are you?" I demanded angrily.
"Limon, Kommy-Kun's true love, your killer, a warrior, a Cyniclon, do you wish to know more or is that enough?" She asked. That smile never left her face.
"Limon, when you say Kommy-Kun who do you mean?" I asked cautiously. I had a feeling I already knew but… I didn't want it to be him…
"Why Kompieto of course!"
"Then you should know there's nothing going on between Kompieto and me, I don't stand in your way of getting to him." I said trying to sound calm.
"Oh but you do, even if you didn't that wouldn't change your fate. You are human, you possess many things that belong to ME. Me and my people." She said taking a step closer. "Enough with this chit-chat, lets play!"
There was a long moment where nothing happened, neither of us said a word or moved a muscle. I began to wonder if she was going to actually do something or if she was waiting for me. Then she lunged forward.
I jumped out of the way, snatching my pendant from the ground in the process. "Mew Mew Plum, METO-MORPHO-SIS!" I cried. "Plum Sword!"
Limon giggled. "Cool! I wanna outfit like that! Where'd ya' get it?"
I glared at her shifting uncomfortably. What is WRONG with this girl! Is she insane? "Are you working with Shugar?" I demanded.
"Shugar? Oh! I almost forgot!" She cried. "Thanks for reminding me!"
Crap. What have I done now?
"Here Kitty-Kitty!" She lunged forward again, tackling me to the ground. Why do they all have to be bigger than me?
Suddenly everything went black and I felt like I was floating, like I was a balloon. And then weight rushed back to me and I found myself in a new room with Limon still on top of me.
We were in a large bedroom decorated with many beautiful and expensive things. I felt like she just transported us back in time to a castle in England.
"Oh, there you are." I heard Shugar call, obviously bored. I looked around franticly but could not see her.
Limon hopped off of me and I scrambled to my feet, gripping my sword and scanning over the room properly. Shugar lay across one of the large canopy beds, propped up on an elbow watching us lazily. On the edge of the bed sat a little girl, maybe a year or two younger than me but still taller.
She had dark eyes that watched me blankly. Her silver hair fell in perfect ringlets down her back. She wore a small black dress with poofy sleeves and tight black shorts underneath. Around her neck, ankles, and wrists were large silver bracelets that almost looked like they needed chains attached to them.
"It took you long enough…" She said softly.
"Hush Qkumber," Shugar snapped leaping off of the bed gracefully. "Now, Mew Plum, you have caused enough trouble. Limon, do with her whatever you wish."
A horrible grin spread across Limon's face and she got a distant look in her eyes like she was imagining all the horrible things she could do.
Oh crap.
I will NOT die tonight.
"Ribbon Plum SHOCKER!" I cried and bright purple lightning rushed from my sword, hitting Limon. I took the chance I had and raced towards the door on the other side of the room.
"NO!" I was tackled once again but it was by Qkumber this time. I struggled to turn onto my back and was able to block her mace from coming down on my head with my sword. "You will…" She grunted pushing down as hard as she could. Thank god she's my size. "DIE!" She hissed.
"No, she will not."
We all looked to the doorway shocked. A beautiful woman stood there, her dark black hair just reaching the floor and her long red and gold ball gown trailing behind her. Her beautiful face was twisted with anger, her dark eyes burning with an anger that did not match her icey cold voice. She looked like Pai in a weird way.
"Ie-Ieclair!" Shugar gasped from where she sat, leaning over the knocked out Limon.
"Shugar, I am VERY disappointed in you. You know this is…" Ieclair scowled in a very Shugar-like manner. "If anyone else did HALF of what you've done they'd be DEAD."
"B-but Momma!" Shugar whimpered.
"No." Ieclair growled. "Going to Earth without permission, attacking innocents, turning on your own, ignoring my orders, releasing two criminals. That's five death sentences alone. Princess or not."
"Momma! I-I just wanted to show you-"
"Stop." She said coldly. "Qkumber Sabi, you could also receive a death sentence. And Limon Mirane…" Her eyes drifted over to the steaming body Shugar was still hunched over. "Limon is a danger to everyone around her… Now get off of her or I'll kill you myself." Ieclair ordered Qkumber who quickly complied.
I scrambled to my feet still gripping the hilt of my sword so tight my knuckles were white. I watched Qkumber, Limon, and Shugar warily and they glared right back at me, well, Qkumber and Shugar did.
"Come child, they will not hurt you while I am present." Ieclair said calmly.
I turned to find her beckoning me towards her. She deffinately had a way about her that made you want to listen to her. I cautiously walked towards her and she stepped back so I could exit the room. I was careful not to step on her dress as I passed. She closed the door behind me carefully then turned to me.
A slight smile curved her lips. "Relax child, are you hurt in any way?"
I rolled my shoulders frowning. "I'm a little sore but that's nothing I can't handle miss."
"I can not transport you to your planet but I can transport you to Kisshu's home. From what I understand Kompieto has taken a liking to you and I'm sure he would gladly take you home." She said smirking.
I blushed furiously. I guess I don't have much of a choice. "Yes, that would be fine, thank you."
She laughed and I was surprised to find that it was a beautiful noise, not cruel or cold. "He's a handful but his heart is in the right place. Do not be too cruel to the boy. Come," she turned and began walking down the beautiful halls. It seems red and gold are the theme of this place.
"Uh, miss?" I said hesitantly.
"I'm not sure of your customs but you may simply call me Ieclair." She said calmly. "What is it you desire to know?"
"Uh… Limon, what exactly…" I bit my lip unsure of what to say. I didn't want to cross any boundaries.
"Limon is not sane." Ieclair said calmly. "I'm not sure how your planet works but here when a person is not in their right mind to the extent they are a danger to themselves and others they have to go to a place where they can be looked after properly. Shugar got Limon out of that place."
"Oh…" I said softly. "They have places like that on our planet… And Qkumber?"
"A troublemaker." Ieclair said calmly. She stopped in front of a large set of golden doors. "Wait here." She teleported away and reappeared a moment later. "Here." She placed a small yellow pill in my palm. "For your pain."
"Thank you," I said swallowing it quickly.
"Take my hand, I will teleport us to Kisshu's home." She held out a clawed hand gracefully. I placed my own in hers carefully. The world went black again but it wasn't as sudden as before. I felt like I was floating but was quickly brought back down.
We were now standing in a small living room. It was dark, the only light was the T.V. against the far wall. I peeked over the couch to find Kompieto sprawled across it fast asleep, Surup sitting in the floor leaning against the couch also asleep, and Moki curled up in her lap.
"If I leave now will you be ok?" Ieclair asked calmly.
"Oh, uh, yes. Thank you for bringing me here." I said quickly.
She smiled kindly, the T.V. casting strange shadows across her face. "Good luck, Mew Plum." The air around her rippled and she disappeared quickly.
