---What happend so far: The Tokyo Mews head home after their tour of the city and are attack by a Chimera-Animera Racoon. They try to distract it from Raisu, whose been knocked into a tree and unconious by the monster, but it won't leave her alone. Thinking it was after Ichigo, who was proctecting Raisu, she leaves hoping to get it away from Raisu. But when she turns around she sees its still heading towards Raisu and Zakruo, who volunteered to protect Raisu. Suddenly when they think of why its after Raisu someone touches Zakuro's shoulder from behind. Its Raisu. She tells them she's gonna fight and suddenly she transforms into a Unicorn Mew! After defeating the Chimera-Animera, she says she'll explain at home where its safer then out in the open wearing their Mew outfits. And so we continue...---

-@The Garden Hotel basement@

-(Raisu opens a door in the basement.)

-(You see abunch of computers and technological machines in a room. A person is sitting at a computer typing wearing a hotel uniform.)

-Raisu: Hello.

-(The person at the computer turns around and it turns out to be Ame.)

-Tokyo Mews: Ame?!

-Ame: Oh, hello. {smile}... Um, is something wrong? {?}

-(Ame looks over at Raisu.)

-Raisu: Before I had the chance to tell them about me, we had an unexpected visitor.

-(Raisu holds out the slightly wiggling bag containing the Chimera-Animera towards Ame.)

-Ame: Oh! Another one! I see, would you explain while I take care of this?

-Raisu: Sure. {smile}

-(Ame goes to another part of the base that's in what appears to be another room.)

-Pudding: You know about the Chimera-Animera?!

-Raisu: There were a couple reasons behind your vacation to America, more specifically, my home.

-Ichigo: You knew about us! But why didn't you tell me Raisu?

-Raisu: Your the first ever version of the MEW project. After your sucess, an association was created specifically for the experiments of Mews. There are Mews right now in every country.

-Minto: Really!?

-Lettuce: But why didn't we know?

-Raisu: I figure that Shirogane and Akasaka didn't want to try and explain it. Ame has been communicating with Shirogane and Akasaka for a few months now.

-Zakuro: That long?

-Raisu: After I became a Mew, Ame swore to help me and deceided to get help from the most experienced "Commanders".

-Ichigo: Commanders?

-Raisu: Its the name given to the people who are conducting the experiments to produce Mews. For example, Ame is my Commander and Shirogane and Akasaka are your Commanders.

-(Ame enters the room again and stands with them all.)

-Ame: It wasn't until a few days after Raisu had invited you that I found out you were Mews like her. I found out when I had mentioned to her about the Tokyo Mews and name you Ichigo. She then told me she had invited her friend Ichigo to come over for vacation with her friends. I then asked her where her friends were from.

-Raisu: In which I replied Tokyo. It was then we realized the connection. Ame then spoke to Shirogane and Akasaka about mentioning the MEW Association. And they agreed, but we didn't plan on telling you until you had a chance to see the city and relax after your flight.

-Ame: But it turned out to have been not early enough.

-Raisu: That reminds me... I never had time to thank all of you for saving me back at the park. Thank you! {smile}

-Tokyo Mews: Your welcome. {smile}

-Raisu: But I am sorry I had to startle all of you back there. #(~_~)# {sad}

-Ichigo: Its ok! But... what animal DNA do you have?

-Ame: *giggle*

-Raisu: {smile} I have the DNA of a unicorn!

-Tokyo Mews: Wha-!

-Minto: Really!

-Pudding: AWESOME!

-Zakuro: That's pretty cool.

-Lettuce: ^They exist?!^

-Ichigo: Wow! They really exist?!

-Raisu: (silence) {sad face}

-Ichigo: Huh?

-(Ame notices Raisu and quickly glimses at her watch.)

-Ame: WOW! Look at the time! Its time for dinner!

-Tokyo Mews: Yum!

-Pudding: ^I'm starving!^ {smile}

-(Ame begins to shove everyone back towards the door leaving Raisu where she was.)

-(After Ame gets everyone into the normal basement she turns to Raisu)

-(A single tear falls down Raisu's cheek.)

-Ame: ^Raisu-?^

-(Raisu suddenly wipes her tear away and shakes her head and looks up at Ame.)

-Raisu: I'm ok! {forced smile}

-(Ame looks at her with doubt. Suddenly you see Ichigo peeking through door way looking sad and thoughtful at why Raisu was crying.)

-%A few days later...%

-(Raisu, Ame, and all the Tokyo Mews are helping Raisu's Mother with the food for dinner.)

-Mother: Aw, thank all of you for helping! {heart}

-Ichigo: I still can't beleive we're leaving so early tomarrow morning. {sad}

-Raisu: Don't worry, I'll have all of you come back and visit again!

-Zakuro: You both should come visit Tokyo someday. {smile}

-(Ame and Raisu glimmce at each other.)

-Raisu: ^Oh, we will...^ {an all knowing kind of looking face}

-Ichigo: Huh?

-Raisu: No, nothing! {smile}

-(Raisu, Raisu's Mother, Pudding, Lettuce, Zakuro and Minto head to the dinning room table carrying food.)

-Ichigo: = I still don't understand why she was crying that night we were in the Base... why didn't she tell me? =

-(Pudding stops in the doorway and turns to Ichigo who's holding the rolls.)

-Pudding: ICHIGO!

-Ichigo: Oh! Coming!

-(Ichigo turns to Ame who's about to leave the kitchen as well.)

-Ichigo: Ame...

-Ame: Yes?

-Ichigo: Does Raisu's Mother know about the Mew project?

-Ame: (pause)... Yes.

-Ichigo: Really?

-Ame: Yes, she does her best not to get in the way but she helps us both out alot by just being there. {smile}

-Ichigo: Why was Raisu cr-?

-(Suddenly Raisu jumps out of the doorway and looks at Ichigo and Ame.)

-Raisu: Are you coming!?

Ame: Sorry! {smile} If I didn't know better, I'd think you were hungry!

-Ichigo: Coming. = I never did find out why she was crying... oh well, she'll tell me when she's ready too. = {smile}

-Raisu: {smile} Lets go!

-Ichigo: Right! {smile}

-Ame: I'll take care of us if you all promise to take care of yourselves!

-(The Tokyo Mews begin heading toward to the boarding tunnel to the plane.)
