Disclaimer: I don't own Tokyo Mew Mew, because if I did, KISH WOULD HAVE HAD ICHIGO, MAYASA WOULD HAVE DIED, RYOU AND LETTUCE WOULD HAVE GOTTEN TOGETHER, AS WELL AS TART AND PUDDING, AND MINT AND ZAKURO!

Thank you for the reviews! I feel special!

In answer to your question, cheeseisawesome, I'm sorry, but I always tab and my computer doesn't like cooperating with me.

Note: I am writing two stories at once, so I might be a bit slow on updating. Thank you for understanding (my other story is Super Sayain Girls! DBGT)

New Powers

"Omigosh! Omigoshomigoshomigosh!" yelled Mint. "What's happened to us? Why do we have our powers back? Omigoshmoigoshomigosh!"

"Mint, calm down! Get yourself together!" yelled Zakuro.

"Omigosh!"

"Mint!" Zakuro slapped Mint.

"Thanks. I needed that," said Mint weakly, ashamed that Zakuro had seen her like that.

"Don't worry about it. We all do it. Who was that on the phone?" asked Zakuro.

"Lettuce. She and Ryou are coming over. Something happened to Ichigo and Pudding."

"What!"

"I don't know. Lettuce didn't tell me. She just said she's coming over," said Mint.

"Alright. Then how about we make some tea?" Zakuro smiled. Mint smiled back. This was another reason why she loved Zakuro. She always knew what to do, and never hesitated to take charge.

DING DONG.

"That must be them," said Zakuro. She and Mint walked over to the door. Mint opened the door.

"Hello, it's nice to see you after so long," said Lettuce. She was wearing a long overcoat, which covered her body, and a hat. Both were soaking.

"Why are you wet?" asked Zakuro.

"I'll explain inside," said Lettuce.

"Wow, you three sure have changed. First I go to Lettuce's house, and she had blonde hair. Now Mint has brown hair, and Zakuro has black! Can we come in?" asked Ryou. Zakuro motioned for them to come in. Once they were inside, Lettuce took off her interesting outfit, and threw it on the floor. Water sprouted from her head, as it used to.

"I guess I should explain all of this," said Ryou.

"Yes, you should!" yelled Mint. "Why are we like this? Haven't our clothes changed when we transformed? Why-"

"Mint, sh," said Zakuro. Mint shushed.

"What happened to Ichigo and Pudding?"

"Kish and Tart kidnapped them."

"Why? I thought we made up," asked Mint.

"Here, I think you should sit down before hearing this," said Ryou. Zakuro sat down on a chair, Mint on the table, and Lettuce on the couch. Once they were all settled down, Ryou spoke.

"Please don't interrupt. We have a new enemy. They killed Pie." Ryou paused, as if seeing if the girls would obey his order. They did. Ryou continued. "Their leader is Mayasa-" this time he was interrupted.

"WHAT?" yelled Lettuce, standing up. Mint and Zakuro followed suit.

"Girls, sit. Mayasa is under mind-control," continued Ryou. The girls sat down. Ryou did not add that he wasn't sure if Mayasa was under mind-control (A/N I do hate Mayasa, but you reviewers might get mad at me, so depending on your reviews, I will choose if he really is under brain control). "As you can see, you've got your powers back. But, you each have a new edition to those powers. This is because you need more power then ever, because your enemies are worse then ever. There is no way you can bet them without these new powers. Your battle cries are still the same, and you can use these extra powers anytime. Lettuce, you can control water-"

"You mean I didn't have to get wet!" as soon as Lettuce said this, the flow of water ceased.

"I will now continue. Lettuce, you can control water, as well as make it, convert it to fog, mist, ice, anything that is water based-" Lettuce covered her mouth with her hands. "Mint, you are super fast, in both air and land. In both air and land, you can circle the globe without missing a spot ten times in a second-" Mint gasped. "Zakuro, you are super strong. You can lift hundreds of Jupiters with only one hand-" here Zakuro also gasped. "Yes, all your powers are very impressive. Ichigo has sharp claws and teeth, which can cut through anything, and she can control how dull or sharp they are. Pudding is super flexible, and can bend her body into any shape. She also has superb balance. Oh, one more thing! You guys can't convert to human form anymore. Ever." All three girls stared at him, dumbfounded.

Pudding started to stir.

"She's waking up!" said Tart. Kish and Tart had explained everything to Ichigo. They had said that Mayasa was part of a new group, The Holy Ones, along with Xexo and Querida, a girl and boy outcast from the world that Kish and Tart live in. Once Ichigo had understood that Kish and Tart meant no harm, they had untied her.

"Huh? Where am I? Why am I tied up?" asked Pudding, confused. She then saw Tart's face leaning over her. "Tart!"

"Hey," said Tart nervously.

"Why am I tied up?" While Tart was telling the story, Ichigo and Kish slipped out. Once Tart was done, he untied Pudding.

"No offense, Pudding, but you seemed to have um..." started Tart.

"Changed? Yeah, well, a lot of bad things has happened since the last time I saw you," said Pudding. Tears stared coming to her eyes. She got up. "Where do I sleep?"

"With Ichigo." Pudding's eyes darkened.

"I'm not staying with her," said Pudding.

"Why?"

"Let's just say her boyfriend is the reason why I'm like this," said Pudding. She lifted up her dark sleeves. Both her arms were scarred, all up and down. Tart gasped. "It's like that everywhere," said Pudding. Her face darkened more, but Tart thought he culd see a bit of sorrow mixed into the darkness. "Mayasa is a murder and a fiend. I will not room with his girlfriend." Pudding sat back down, sobbing.

Sad, I know. I feel for Pudding, but it's essential. You might find out in the next chapter what happened to her.
