Hi everyone! Hope you're liking the story so far! Next week, I'm planning on uploading my second story! Woo hoo! It's going to be a fanfic on the lives of the most famous Madoka Magica witches when they were girls. NightSkyWolves, I can see you smiling right now. It's going to be in third person and I hope I did a good job at it! So without further ado, Chapter 13! Yay! (Kermit the Frog style…)
Chapter 13
I surrender
Sonya stared at the Chimera swan in the cage. It stared back at her in reply. Andrew and Matt watched them in concern. "She's been doing this for ten minutes straight!" Matt whispered.
"I wonder if either of them blinked yet," Andrew stated as he watched the cat Mew starring at the Chimera swan.
"It's one of Carrot's Chimeras," Sonya said as she still eyed the bird. "So he's the only one that can do this, right?"
"From what I've taken from a feather sample on the Chimera swan is that it's a mix of an actual trumpet and a trumpet swan both placed into a Chimera," Matt explained.
"In short, he can take one living thing and mix it with an inanimate object and create a new species of Chimera," Andrew concluded.
"Have the Tokyo Team ever seen anything like this?" She asked. "They might know any easy weaknesses."
"I just Skyped them. Ryou told me that that has never happened to them before. I also got some girls crowding around the screen," Andrew gulped a bit. "They wanted to talk to you and the 'deceased' Mews," he told her.
Sonya sighed. "Did you tell them that they're gone?" Sonya's eyes saddened at the mention of her old team. "Did you tell them that they'll never come back?"
"I told them you would tell them what happened. It makes sense that you'd be the one to break the news," Andrew explained. "I just told them that they would all 'see them in another place' soon."
"So that's you cover up for 'I'm sorry but the previous Toronto Mew team with the exception of Mew Salt were killed'," Sonya growled as she still starred at the bird.
"Uh Sonya? Look at me," Andrew walked over to her. "Why do you keep starring at that Chimera swan?" He asked her.
She licked her lips. "I want to eat the birdy...," she stated. "So...yummy..."
"Okay! Time to get you some goldfish crackers!" Matt ran over and started to drag Sonya away.
"Goldfish? Did you say goldfish?" She asked as her cat ears and tail popped out. "So hungry..."
Andrew sighed as they left the room. "Okay bird. Talk," he frowned at the bird. The bird still just stared back. "Why aren't you moving? Seriously," Andrew opened up the cage. Suddenly, the trumpet trumpeter swan flew out of the cage. Andrew yelped in surprise.
The bird tried to fly out of the room. It made a loud surprised trumpet call. Andrew covered his ears. "Ah! You bird! Seriously!" He yelled. He tried to recapture the swan Chimera.
"I never knew you people were so harsh to creature. Good thing we're here to destroy you humans."
Andrew turned around. Before he could even gasp, an arrow with a blue coloured feather shot him in the arm. Andrew fell to the ground, slowly falling asleep as the arrow slowly dissolved into him.
Hemlock lowered his bow and went to get the Chimera. The bird still flew around in fear, honking in protest. Lime got a red tipped arrow and tried to shoot it, only to drop his weapon and cover his ears. "Man, you're loud!" He commented. "I'll get Carrot for this..."

Carrot on the other hand, was getting what he deserved. He was sitting near the door of his prison cell at the police station. The musicians from the gazebo were talking to the police while he waited in a small locked room with a door that had a small space to talk and wire between the sheets of glass. He was curled up in a small ball against the wall; his head was in between his legs.
I deserve this, right? I mean why would I be here if I didn't? Oh God, forgive me for what I did, he thought as he started to cry a bit in his cell. He thought about the movies he and Lime had watched together. He thought about the scenes that had people in jail.
"Don't I get a phone call?"
"Wait, what did you say kid?" The guard that was watching him in his cell from a desk asked. "What was that?"
"I said, don't I get a phone call?" Carrot, human name Carin, asked again.
"Here, I'll let you out to do your 'phone call'," the police officer got up and went to unlock Carin's cell. Just as he unlocked Carin's cell, Carin quickly ran away from the room and down a hallway.
"Stop that kid! Someone!" The officer yelled. He ran after Carin and got a Taser ready.
Carin kept running. I want to teleport away but they have cameras, he noted. He kept running until he ducked behind a group of trash bags a man had left there. He quickly hid himself in the bags just as the officer went down the hall.
"Where are you red head? I got you now!" The officer moved the bags away but blinked in shock. Carin was gone.

Claudine started to walk home from school. She had the four day long weekend to forward to. Freedom for four days! This is so awesome! She thought as she walked a smiling on her face. She walked past Sonya's old school as she went to go and work at the dinner.
I wonder if Carin is still around, she wondered as she walked by. She decided to go see the school up close.
"Carin? Carin are you there?" She asked out as she ran over to the building. She held her clover key necklace as she ran. "Carin?"
Suddenly, a red hair figure could be seen in the building. Claudine smiled and ran over. "Carin!" She yelled happily. "Carin, it's..."
"Claudine! Look out!"
Claudine blinked and gasped as a large, rusted metal beam was coming down to fall on her. She stiffened up as the beam went to fall and crush her. She shut her eyes tightly.
Suddenly, she felt a pair of hands grab her and she felt herself land on her back on the ground. She yelped slightly. "Ow... Uh...," she groaned as she felt the jolt of pain rush over her.
Claudine slowly tried to open her eyes. She saw a boy with orange hair, green eyes and slightly pointed ears look down at her. The person looked panic. "Carin, is that..."
Suddenly the boy moved in closer and kissed her lips. Claudine started to blush bright pink and slowly closed her eyes from being kissed. When she opened them again, she saw Carin looking down at her.
"Carin?! Carin what was that kiss for?" Claudine asked in shock as her cheeks still blushed pink. "Why did you do that?!"
"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to! I'm really sorry I," he tried to say. He gulped as he looked at her, regretting what he did as he felt a knot in his stomach.
"I-I wanted to save my first kiss for my wedding day," Claudine looked away, still blushing. "Carin... Thanks for saving me," she finally said.
"N-No problem. I-I'm just glad you're safe," he smiled down at her.
"How...how did you get here so fast? I-I mean you were about three classrooms away. How...," Claudine tried to ask.
"I'm a fast runner you could say," he closed his eyes and smiled.
That beam was coming down so fast. He wouldn't have gotten to me after I was crushed, Claudine noted. She looked up at him and looked at his ears. They looked normal but had a tiny bend to make them a tiny bit elfish. What I saw before was large elf like ears. Did Carin change? What's going on? She wanted to ask aloud. Instead, all she said was "Um, Carin? Y-You can get off of me now."
Carin blinked. "Oh, um, yeah. Sorry," he apologized. Carin was holding Claudine's wrist down near her head. He was over top of her with her legs underneath his. He slowly got off of her. "Sorry about that," he said and blushed. He started to stand up and help her up.
Claudine slowly got up. "It's alright. No harm done," she smiled at Carin and tried to get up. "I-I really wanted to see you. I haven't seen you in so long," she told him. "I wish you'd come back to the diner."
"I can't. I just can't go back there," he said a bit coldly. "I can't go back there anymore."
"Why not? I mean it's okay now. Sonya's not," Claudine tried to say before Carin interrupted her.
"No. No, I can't go back there! I just can't!" Carin started to cry. "I can't face this any longer!"
"Carin, look, it's okay! Stop freaking out like this!" She told him. She had never seen him act like this. "Carin, please stop doing this! Stop running away! Would Jesus run away from the cross?"
Carin stopped for a moment. He slowly wiped his tears away. "No... But Claud...," he tried to say. He started to walk, then run away.
"Carin! Carin wait! Don't go!" She yelled at him. "Please come back!" Soon, Carin was out of sight. "Carin..."
The Chimera swan watched Claudine from afar. Master's comrade will be very pleased! It thought. It turned around and started to fly back to where Hemlock was waiting for it.
{}..{}
"Ah, you came back. Good," Hemlock smiled as the Chimera swan Carrot created flew back to him. "Now, what's the golden Mew's progress? He asked.
The swan just made a trumpet call. Hemlock frowned. "Sorry, I cannot understand trumpet calls," Hemlock stated.
"I believe the birdie said 'the girl's oblivious as a child. She's too easy to defeat," the girl with silvery wings stated. She was flying beside Hemlock, twirling her weapon.
"Now, you know the plan right?" Hemlock asked her.
"Know it? Hello, I made it! I won't kill your kitten whiskers, tree sapling. I'll pluck them out one by one," the girl told Hemlock. "Don't worry. Trust me dude," she told him and gave a quick wave goodbye. She then flew away.
Hemlock frowned. "I'm named after a poison, not a tree!" He snarled. That girl. Mew or not… she's a pain, Hemlock thought.

On Good Friday, Sonya was the last one to leave the church service. She was wearing black like the day called for; a black leather jacket, a black shirt, black jeans and black streaks dyed into her hair.
Sonya slowly started to exit her pew and walk up to the alter. The alter had a small cross positioned on it with the giant stained glass windows casing coloured shadows as the rain fell against the window and the outside world.
"Why God? Why me? Why did I live and the others die?!" Sonya yelled and fell to her knees. She cried in agony in front of the alter. Tears poured onto the carpet floor as she cried. "Just why?! God, You died in order to save us from our sins; to save us from separation from You! Lord, yes I know they are with You in heaven Lord... But why me? Why save me and let them die? Lord, I'm too weak and unable to lead these girls! Why couldn't one or all of the others live and me die instead? Just why?!" She cried out.
She looked up at the stained glass pictures. The main one in front of the pulpit was stain glass pieces cut and shaped to show Jesus ascending into heaven. She imagined the others were also going up into heaven alongside Him.
Sonya slowly stood up, feeling as if someone was nearby. "Who's there?" She asked.
Your faith was wavering. Ever since I called you to defend My people, you lost sight of who I was and what I did for you. Their faith was strong; strong enough to die for my sake. You needed a situation to awaken your faith and belief in what I did for you. Sonya... I love you and I knew that something like this would awaken your faith in me...
Sonya blinked as she felt those words enter her ears. She started to cry; this time not in sadness but in realization. Her faith was the weakest. The Word of God never touched her heart like it did the others. She kind of asked God into her heart to follow along with the brokenness the others were facing. She didn't truly believe. Sonya clasped her hands together. "Oh God... What have I been doing? Oh God, why have I been drifting? I didn't truly believe in you then or now. I can really see that now that I didn't. So...take all of me. Right now. Don't let my faith fail me now in this time where I need to believe in you the most. Take all of me Lord. Please. I believe in you and I admit nothing I can do can save myself from what I have done. I'm stupid. So stupid. So take me now and cleanse me of my sin. I'm yours. ...Amen..."
Sonya had her eyes close and tears streaming down her eyes. She was so deep in pray to become a true Christian she didn't see a figure with wings watching her pray.
{}..{}
Sonya started to walk through an alley way to get home from church. She felt a giant burden had left her shoulders and was gone for good; all because of Jesus' death and soon to be celebrated resurrection. Sonya was closer to the main street when she heard a voice.
"Where are you going on this sad Good Friday?"
Sonya quickly turned around. "Who's there? Show yourself!" She ordered.
A figure landed right in front of Sonya. Sonya quickly turned around and saw a silver haired girl with silvery eyes and silver wings. "Hi there," the girl smirked at Sonya before Sonya was thrown away from her.
Sonya screamed as she flew five feet through the air before she hit the ground below. She screamed in agony and went to find her Mew Pendant. She looked at the winged girl before she kissed her pendant.
"Mew Mew Salt! Metamorphosis!"
Soon, she was in her usual white dress, her white hair and her cat ears and tail. She made her Salt violin appear. "Who in the world are you?" She hissed at the newcomer. Mew Salt put an arm around her stomach. "What did you hit me with?"
The girl twirled a large spiked mace in her hands. "Eh? What did you say? All I heard was cat hissings," she said as she examined her mace.
"I asked who you were! Are you a Mew?" Sonya asked as she readied her violin to attack the newcomer.
"I would say no. I'm more of a Squawk then a Mew. Sounds of animals you know," the girl told her. "You could say in your worst nightmare."
"Well, if you're going to hurt me, then I'll fight back!" Mew Salt hissed and played her violin. A hurricane started to pick up. "Ribbon Salt Symphony!"
A small whirlwind appeared as Mew Salt played her violin. The winged girl gasped and covered her face as the whirlwind covered her. Mew Salt stopped playing her violin as the whirlwind still surrounded the girl. "Never pick a fight with me," she told the girl and tried to turn back to normal as she started to walk away.
Suddenly, chains filled the alleyway. Sonya was caught off guard as she was suddenly chained up. "What? What's going on?! Let me go!" She said as she tried to struggle free. The metal cut her skin, causing to wince in pain. "Ah!"
The hurricane had chains sticking out of it as it dispersed. The girl was holding a stick that once held her spiked ball mace. Instead, chains were coming out of the stick. Seems like it a chain mallet instead, Sonya growled.
The girl smiled and flew over to Sonya. "Don't under estimate me kitty whiskers. In fact," the girl snatched her Mew Pendant away. "You never will ever again."
Sonya gasped. Kitten whiskers... Sawyer always called me that, Sonya recalled. She was too much caught up on the past she didn't realize that the winged girl snatched her pendant.
"Well, Ta Ta! Tell your kitty cat Mew friends 'Mew Mace is coming and she's won't leave until you're all gone'," she told Sonya. She turned around and flew away. "Bye..."
"Come back here! Let me go!" Sonya yelled in protest. Soon, the chains disappeared and dropped her. Sonya rubbed her arms. "Mew Mace eh? Well, Miss Mace, you're going down..."
