Chpt.4-Clues
"Ryou, you're alive! where were you, where's the rest?" Ichigo asked hugging Ryou
"I don't know where I was or where everyone else is," Ryou said as Ichigo gave him a confused look.
"I was blindfolded and tied up, and when I turned into a cat, I saw that I was here, but since there was no one else was around me I started walking around and that's when I came up to you," Ryou explained
"Let's look for the others, we have to find a way out of this place," Ichigo said as they started walking down the tunnels
"Hey um Ryou...while you were blindfolded did some sort of white light all of a sudden came up and took you to a certain world?" Ichigo asked breaking the silence as they still walked down the tunnels
"Yeah...and it was really weird something that'll probably never happen, and you?"
"Yeah, I had one too...and for some strange reason instead of landing at my house or at Cafe' Mew Mew I was in the park,"
"The same thing happened to me, do you think the others landed in the same place?" Ryou asked as Ichigo nodded, then Pie, Lettuce, Tart, and Pudding blinked in front of them
"Ryou, you're alive!" everyone said thankful that they found their guide
"Listen, when you guys had your dreams, where'd you go to?" Ryou asked
"Me and Pie didn't have the dreams, instead we woke everybody up," Tart said making Ryou even more confused
"Well I was in the park," Lettuce said as Pudding nodded
"I was in the park too, na no da!"
"Same here,"
"Me too,"
'Hmm, I wonder if that means anything,' Ryou thought as they continued to search for the others.
"I'm so tired," Ichigo said yawning as they found a way out of the tunnels
"I could carry you if you want," Ryou offered
"No way, if Masaya saw me he'll probably think I'm cheating on him, then there goes my perfect life with him, I fine with walking," Ichigo said crossing her arms as Ryou shrugged his shoulders
"Suit yourself," Ryou said as his mind went back to the dream that he had
Flashback
:Ryou's POV:
'What's going on, why can't I see anything but a white light, am I dead, did I go to heaven!" I thought as an image of the park came into my view and I saw someone sitting on the bench crying so I walked closer and saw that it was Ichigo
"Ichigo what's wrong?" I asked as she looked up to me with tearful eyes
"Masaya broke up with me, he said that he'll never go out with someone named after fruit, and then he went to Mint, and he was probably the only boy that was perfect for me," Ichigo said as she broke out into deeper sobs
"That's not true, for all you know I could be the guy that's perfect for you," I said as I grabbed her face in my hands and gave her a long deep passionate kiss.
'This isn't real, I can't stay in this spell, I have to wake up,' I thought as everything disappeaered and returned to the dark blue cloth that covered my eyes
'I have to escape, the others are probably lost somewhere,' I thought as I tried to loosen the ropes that held my hands together. A few minutes later I decided to turn into a cat since I had no success in being free so when I turned into a cat the cloth and ropes came off of me and I saw that I was in a old tunnel and when I heard footsteps I decided to follow the direction that they were coming from.
End Flashback
"Here's the room and there's Zakuro and Keiichiro," Ryou said as they walked in the room and saw Keiichiro and Zakuro sleeping in seperate beds so everyone clamied a bed and went to sleep.
"Ryou wake up, we're going to go look for the others," Ichigo said shaking Ryou's shoulders a few hours later
"Okay, stop I'm awake," Ryou said as Ichigo stopped shaking his shoulders allowing him to get up from the bed and they followed everyone out of the room to continue their search.
"Pie...uh...can't you just trace Kish and look for the rest?" Lettuce asked blushing a little now realizing her crush on Pie
"I haven't been able to trace him and even if I am able to he probably would've been seperated from the rest," Pie said as they entered a room that looked like a ballroom
"There's a secret passage somewhere here," Ryou said starting to feel the walls for a button so everyone else did the same.
"Hey Ryou why is Meika's spirit lurking around the mansion?" Ichigo asked while she was still searching
"...I don't know, it's been like eight years since she died, so everything is a blur," Ryou said sounding like he was hiding something but Ichigo didn't notice, then Ryou heard a click and he quickly grabbed Ichigo's waist before she fell down a slide that appeared through an opening through the wall
"Thanks, but let go of me you hetai!" Ichigo said as she balanced herself
"Who's going down first, na no da!" Pudding asked as she walked up to them holding Tart's arm
"I'll go, after all I do know where it leads to," Ryou said as he jumped on the slide and slid down with everyone following him.
A few minutes later Ryou was knocked down by everyone landing on top of him "Could you get off of me, you guys are too heavy!" Ryou said as everyone climbed off of himthen when they got on their feet they started walking foward but then Ichigo accidently tripped over something
"You're clumsy no matter what," Ryou said helping Ichigo up a little
"Well FYI I tripped over something and this time it wasn't over my own feet," Ichigo said as Ryou flashed his flashlight to where Ichigo tripped and there on the ground was a dead Kish.

Here's the Japanese glossary:
hetai: pervert
And of course here's the sneak peek:
"Was there by any chance that you saw a ghost looming around these walls?" Lettuce asked Suko, the Australian investigator as he just laughed
"You lot still believe in ghosts, but why do you ask? I've sure heard a lot o' rumors 'bout a spirit lurking these here walls but to me it's all dilly squat," Suko said as everyone gave a nervous laugh but then Mint showed up in front of Suko
"Mint, you're all right!" everyone said but Mint didn't answer them
"I'll show you dilly squat!" Mint said in a different voice from her original voice as she moved her hand and sent Suko flying through a wall
"You'll regret not even bothering to look for my body, Ryou and you know where it is!" Mint said in an angry voice as she turned around and everyone saw that Mint's eye color was the same eye color as Ryou's then Mint disappeaered into the shadows.
