The Rabbit Mew

Chapter 4

The next day, Anna skipped to school. "Hey, Ichigo!" She said as she hopped by. "You're definitely a rabbit. Look, your nose is twitching!" Ichigo said, laughing. "I didn't know you were the one who moved in down the street. Mom just said it was the Ninshin's." She said, after she recovered.

At recess, Masaya went up to Anna. "You're the new girl, right? I was wondering if you wanted go out with me?" Slap! Without a word, Anna walked away from him. She went over to Ichigo. "Masaya tried to go out with me." She told her. "What did you do?" Ichigo asked. "Slapped him." "Good girl."

She marched over to Masaya. "I'm breaking up with you." She told him. "Why?" He asked stupidly, holding his cheek where Anna slapped him. "Because you tried to cheat on me." "How did you know that?" Masaya asked. "Because I'm her friend." Anna had come up behind Ichigo. "Exactly." "Ummm...Whoops."

The bell rang and Anna and Ichigo walked to their lockers. "This is Retasu and Minto." Ichigo said, indicating the green haired girl and the blue haired girl beside her. "They work at Cafe Mew Mew too... sort of." Retasu smiled at Anna shyly. Minto gave her a quick once-over. Ichigo elbowed her. "Zakuro onee-sama seems to like you, so I guess you're OK." Minto said. "Do you think Ryou fixed your uniform?" Retasu asked. "Probably not." Anna replied, making Retasu giggle. "Ryou can be a real jerk sometimes." Ichigo said. The other three nodded.

They walked to their next class. "Anyone ever thought of rebelling against Ryou?" Anna asked. Ichigo laughed. "Minto already does." Retasu sidled up to Anna. "Trust me. The Mews are the best friends you'll ever have." "Yeah, you would know, wouldn't you, Retasu?" Minto asked. "Don't make me hit you." Anna said, raising her hand as if she were going to backhand Minto.

"The new Mew is violent." Kish, who had been watching the four Mew Mews, said.

"Ichigo!" Minto whined, running over and hiding behind her. Ichigo laughed. Anna smiled. "Just sticking up for a friend."

After school, all six of the Mew Mews headed to the cafe. "I'm cutting out early. I have a modeling deal to take care of." Zakuro said. "What makes you think Ryou will let you leave early?" "Who said I'm gonna tell him?" Zakuro smirked. "I'm telling Ryou, na no da!" "Purin!" The others yelled. "I was just kidding." She said.

They got to the cafe. "I forgot to get your uniform fixed, Anna." Ryou said. "What a surprise." Anna muttered. "What was that?" Ryou asked. "Nothing." Anna said, whistling. "What's the matter, Ryou? Still shocked over the fact that she looks like you?" Minto asked. "Shut up and get to work, Minto!" Ryou snapped. Anna giggled. 'She hit a nerve.' She thought to herself. She took her uniform and went into the back room to change. She came back out, tripping every so often.

Purin grinned. "Jingle bells, jingle bells, tripping all the way! Oh what fun it is to fall flat on your face, hey! Na no da!" She sang. That provided Zakuro with an oppurtunity to slip out the door, while everyone laughed.

When the cafe closed, Ryou said, "I promise I'll get that fixed." Anna nodded. "OK." She walked out and headed home. 'Yeah, right.' She thought to herself.
