Chapter 5------
Retasu looked up at Ichigo's palace and slowly walked through the front gate. Everything seemed to... Disturbed. People were running back and forth in chaos and calling out for Ichigo. Even Mrs. and Mr. Momomiya looked a bit worried. Why was going on?
Retasu scanned the pink palace walls and noticed something that didn't fit into the picture. Prince Ryou?! She stared for a momment as he finished talking to Ichigo's parents and then found his sapphire gaze on HER. She gulped and walked forward, trying to act like nothing was wrong. But something HAD to be wrong. Ryou only visited Ichigo when something really terrible was happening around her palace...
"Good Morning, Retasu-san." Ryou said with a short bow of his head. Retasu returned the bow and walked right up to Ichigo's parents. She'd completly forgotten about telling Ryou how she felt. "What's going on?" She asked quietly as she took a look around. Sakura frowned and looked at the ground sadly.
"Ichigo ran away..."
Retasu stared for a momment, trying to process the information. Ran... Away? She was gone? But why? Had Masaya's death really been so bad?
"Why?" She asked softly, trying to keep her cool.
"Ryou asked to merry her and that just... Well, she ran away..."
Retasu's expression went blank. Ryou wanted to marry Ichigo? Why? But she loved Ryou! She did! Not Ichigo! She did!
"I... I hope you find her..."
"You' re welcome to just stay here..."
"Sure... I guess I' ll go to my usual room..." Retasu replied quickly. She turned around and walked off before letting a couple tears roll down her face. Why? Why? This just wasn' t fair! Why?!
It was the dead of night in the village around Minto's palace. The stares twinkled with delight and the moon emptied it's light on the dark skies of night. But not everything was as peaceful as the stars suggested...
"Yeeeeak!" Minto, in Mew form, screamed as she fell from the sky and crashed into a nearby sidewalk. The sidewalk crumbled but Minto was still able to get up and dodge the next attack. A large red macaw plowed into the sidewalk head first, having hoped to jab Minto but missing completly since Minto had rolled away last minute.
The macaw yanked its head out of the sidewalk and dove at Minto once again. Minto screamed and jumped into the air, her feet skimming the creature's head as she flew over it.
"Minto Arrow!" She cried out as a little blue arrow formed in her hand. She grabbed it hard and spun around but the macaw rammed into her and knocked her back. She kept the arrow in her hand tightly and was the macaw swooped up again and pointed her little heart arrow tip at it.
"Ribboooon.... MINTO ECHO!" She screamed loudly. The arrow shot off and hit the macaw's wing but didn't make enough contact with it to returned it to its original form, a simple scarlet macaw.
The bird's eyes grew wide and it flew down at Minto once more, this time knocked her to one side and leaving deep wounds in her shoulder. The fight was pretty one sided in the anima's favor now...
"Ribbon Zakuro pure!" Yelled a voice. A bright purple whip tied itself around the macaw's body and held it in place. Minto reacted quickly and took aim with her arrow.
"RIBBON MINTO ECHO!" She yelled. Another arrow was released and the attack easily cured the Macaw of its virus. Minto turned around and saw the purple haired Mew of the Grey Wolf... The Mew of Purity Kingdom? But that couldn't be right! There was no Mew of the 5th Kingdom anymore!
"You... You're.... Zakuro Fujiwara!" Minto knew that face anywhere. The face of her role model and master theif... Mew Zakuro!
"Don't look into it..." Zakuro replied coldly.
"N-No! This is awesome! You're the final princess! We can finally fight back!"
"Hmmm?" Zakuro looked stunned... In fact, she was a bit amused by the idea of having the power of a Princess over a kingdom... "Whatever. I want my palace."
"Oh yes! Come on!" Minto said cheerfully. This was going surprisingly easily but, then again, this was probbly as easy as things would ever get for Minto. Zakuro followed her as they began to walk towards the Purity kingdom but Zakuro didn't want to just walk.
"Come on." She said firmly as she jumped onto a tree. The tree didn't have time to bend under her weight before she threw her body into the sky and landed on top of a large glass building. Minto flew after her and looked around.
"Oh! That's right!" She said quietly as she clipped her pendent off her collar and whispered something into it. "Miss Momomiya? Please have all the Mews report to Purity Palace." She said calmly before returning the locket to its rightful place.
"Now... How should we get there?" Minto asked. Zakuro looked even more amused. Didn' t Princess Minto know about their powers? Zakuro took her weapon and held it in the air.
"Repeat after me." She said firmly "And hold your arrow into the air."
"Uh... Ok?" Mint held her arrow into the air and repeated every word Zakuro said.
"Powers of the sky and purity unite! I command you!" Zakuro yelled with Minto's voice trailing behind her. A large flash of light split out over the sky kingdom, engulfing everything, and then slowly faded...
