Dream World Chapter 6

It was burning. Everything was on fire. The trees, the grass... It was all burrrrrrrrrning. Burning like fire...

Ok, that was obvious.

The overall point is it was burning.

"Help meeeee!" Mew Satou whined, clinging to a tree that was hanging over the rivers of lava, "Help meeeeeee! I'm good! Really!"

None of this was helping. The trio of villains continued to laugh and the ground trembled as more lava was spat up. Mew Meron was next to Satou, trying her hardest to get herself and her friend untied from the vines Yousei had tied them up with.

"Teehehe! You know, your death was coming soon anyways." Yousei explained happily, "This'll be easy!"

"Yeah, but we're so young. Mercy, nya!" Mew Satou wailed, "I'll be good!"

"Nuh-uh! Hey, Satoshi, you got the lime green one?"

"Not yet!" Satoshi yelled in reply, flying after Mew Universe, who had taken the liberty of running up a tree and trying to reach her trapped friends.

"Ok. Hikaru, get the foxes, ok?"

"NO!" Mew Sumi screamed as she jumped from patches of bare land to... Other patches of bare land. Mew Amme was following her with her one and only weapon, the Amme Umbrella, which she used to float through the air.

"Mew Sumi!" Mew Amme called, "Grab my foot!"

"RIGHT!" Mew Sumi said firmly, jumping up and grabbing Mew Amme's foot as the fellow fox mew flew by, the wind pulled them up and then they glided smoothly through the air until they reached a little building; A little building that was still sticking out of the lava.

"C'mere, Kitsune." Satoshi teased as he continued flying after Mew Universe. The green and black Mew responded by jumping to another tree, but Satoshi got in front of her. This move resulted in a kick in the face for Satoshi, who tumbled towards the lava before catching himself and flying off after Mew Universe again.

"You're too troublesome." He muttered, grabbing her throat and taking out a knife, "I'll just kill you right no-"

"TIMBERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!" Mew Amme screamed, crashing into Satoshi and kicking him in the back of the head. Satoshi let Mew Universe go long enough for her to grab Mew Sumi's shoe. The three then floated, until gravity got the best of them and began pulling them down.

"AAAAAAAAAACK!" Mew Sumi screamed, "Mew Amme! WIND! Get us UP!"

"I can't!" Mew Amme yelled back, "I need wind to create itself to fly!"

"There's gotta be something we can do!" Mew Universe yelled to them, trying to remain calm. They were slowly getting closer and closer to the lava...

Mew Satou and Mew Meron exchanged worried looks.

"Mew Meron! Can you kick my Sugar Chime!" Mew Satou asked quickly, referring to the weapon she was holding behind her back in tied up hands. Mew Meron nodded and began to kick her feet until the tree swayed enough; The sugar chime's bell with it.

"Ribbon Sugar Wind RING!" Mew Satou screamed. A strong, sugar scented breeze came from no where and somehow managed to push the three near-death Mews higher into the air.

"Thanks!" Mew Amme called.

"You're welcome!" Mew Satou chirped, "Now help us out over here!"

Yousei twitched. She'd had enough of waiting.

"That's it." She said firmly, "This ends right now! VINES! RELEASE THEM!"

And, as ordered, the vines released Mew Satou and Mew Meron. The two girls screamed in horror, now hugging each other as they fell.

"I don't wanna die!"

"I know! We never even got to see a good dub of Tokyo Mew Mew, na no da!"

"This is a bad way to die, nya!"

Suddenly, Satou and Meron found themselves safe. It was kind of weird, how sudden this was. Shugo, who now had wings, had somehow managed to catch them and bring them to safety.

"Hmph! Yer still mean, nya." Satou pouted, even after Shugo was flying them to the top of the Cafe. The other three were already there, safe as can be. Meron and Satou landed on the Cafe roof and looked down.

"What can we do? None of us have the Dream Power to overthrow three." Mew Universe said sadly, "It's hopeless."

"No it isn't!" Mew Amme said firmly.

"Yeah!" Mew Satou agreed, "In the anime, the Mews put their power together! Maybe we can put our dreams together!"

"Ooooh! Sounds fun, na no da!" Mew Meron chirped happily, "Count me in!"

Shugo smiled and nodded. They really were the perfect Mews. He couldn't have asked for a better team.

"Well. It's about time I upgraded you five" He finally said. The five excited Mews turned to face him, looking a bit confused.

"Nya?" Mew Satou murmured, "Why?"

"Well... I guess you really are a good team. And Mew Satou? Sorry for being so mean to you, ok? I won't take advantage of your stupidity anymore. You're just so cute when you're mad."

Mew Satou started to blush and she giggled, "Ok..."

"He's taking advantage of her stupidity..." Mew Universe murmured to Mew Sumi. Sumi laughed weakly.

"Yeah... But we'd better not say anything, or she'll kill him before we get upgraded."

"Good point."

"Ok... You've been upgraded." Shugo said after a 10 second silence. The silence became about 20 seconds longer and then nearly everyone started whining.

"Awww! No shiny new henshin or anything?" Mew Satou asked miserably, "I want a new henshin1"

"I demand a new battle costume, na no da!" Mew Meron joined in.

"I DEMAND A RAISE!" Mew Amme pouted. No one seemed to noticed this.

"Calm down, calm down." Shugo said quickly, "Look at your henshin pendents."

Everyone instantly calmed down and looked at their henshin pendents, which were now made of the pretty, shiny crystal substance as the dream shards.

"Oooooh!" Satou said in complete awe, "Shiiinnnyyyy..."

"Cheesee..." Mew Meron added as she poked the new pendent, completely satisfied. Shugo sighed in relief.

"Now. Back to fighting with you."

"But Shugooo-chaaaaaaaaaan!" Mew Satou complained.

"Don't call me Shugo-chan. It makes me sound like a girl."

"Fine then. Shu-Shu!" Satou said excitedly.

"Stop it."

"Go-Go!"

"STOP. IT."

Much to Shugo's surprise, Satou stopped with the dumb nicknames.

"... Shugo-kun, we can't fight them. We need to combine our attacks."

"That's simple. It's a Mew Dream Extension." Shugo said rather proudly, "I had to make it something easy so you could figure it out."

"Nyaaa! That's so sweet of you!" Mew Satou squealed, hugging Shugo.

"Should we tell her?" Mew Universe asked Mew Sumi.

"Tell her what?"

"That he's calling her dumb?"

"He is?"

"... Never mind."

"Ok!"

"Are we being ignored?" Yousei murmured. Her two teammates nodded in agreement.

"It looks like we're going to have our butts kicked too." Hikari commented, "I say we take out leave."

"Me too." Satoshi agreed. In a blink of an eye, the two had vanished. Yousei twitched. Why were they LEAVING her? She was the most experienced member of the group! She deserved more respect then this!

"HEY! YOU! MEW MEWS!" Yousei called to the Mews, "C'mon and fight me!"

"If you want a fight, you'll get a fight." Mew Amme snapped.

"Hai, na no da!" Mew Meron agreed, "C'mon! Let's Mew Power Extension!"

"Alright then!" Mew Universe said firmly, "Let's go, minna!"

"Agreed!" The other four chirped, "Mew Dream Power Extension!"

Instantly, five beams of light shot from the Mews; Lime green for Mew Universe, orange for Meron, turquise for Mew Amme, red for Mew Sumi, and pink for Mew Satou. The Mews were now also floating in the beams, clinging to their weapons.

"Hey! I can see my house from here!" Mew Amme called.

"Really!" Mew Satou asked excitedly.

"Me too!" Mew Sumi agreed happily.

Mew Universe just moaned. How could they see their houses in reality if they were in Dream World? Oh well.

"Now what, Shugo, na no da?" Mew Meron asked, "Yousei's still here!"

"Yup. And I have no idea what in the world you're doing." Yousei murmured, looking very confused by the five mews hanging from no where.

"Now you can attack Yousei." Shugo explained, just say 'Mew Dream Power'."

"OK! Mew Dream Powa, na no da!" Mew Meron cried out in excitement. The orange beam flew over to Yousei and warpped around her, tying the poor girl up.

"Oh! Mew Dream Power!" Mew Amme echoed. Her turqoise beam mimicked that of Mew Meron. Both girls started falling, their beams now tying Yousei up in stead of holding them up. By some lucky twist of fate, they landed well next to Shugo.

"Mew Dream Power!" Mew Universe yelled, letting her beam fly and landed gracefully on the ground.

"Welp. Better go, eh, Mew Satou?" Mew Sumi chirped.

"I'm scaaaarrred." Mew Satou whined, "I'm gonna fall and crack my skull and my brain's spill out n'--"

"Don't worry, Satou!" Shugo called, "You don't have enough brains to spill out!"

"Shugo, don't let her go kill the few brain cells she has left." Mew Universe muttered.

"Ok, Shugo! Catch me!" Mew Satou yelled, "Ok!"

"No." Shugo replied.

But it was a bit tooo late.

"Mew Dream Power, nya!" Mew Satou called. Mew Sumi noticed this and yelped.

"Mew Dream Powaroar!" She called, leaping down and grabbing Mew Satou.

"Fly fly fly fly fly fly!"

"Why why why why why?"

"We're gonna die die die die die!"

"Oh."Mew Satou nodded and then fluttered her macaw wings, fluttering safely to the ground.

"YAAAAAAAY!"

"Uggg..." Shugo moaned, "Now. Let's go back."

"Ok!" Mew Satou chirped.

Shugo sighed, walking back to the school track in reality. Knowing Satou, she probably hadn't gotten very far in Reality before falling asleep. A couple seconds later, he heard someone moan and then start sobbing.

"K-Kisshu-kuun, nya? Oneesama? Anneka? Meron...? Someone come save me." Whimpered Satou, who had just woken up. Shugo sighed and started walking towards Satou, who had curled up in a little ball and was sobbing.

He kicked her in the side and Satou sat up.

"Nya!"

"Yo. What're you crying about?" He asked her as Satou uncurled herself and stared at Shugo, now laying on her back.

"Konnichiwa nyu. Can you take me home? I'm lost ish." She admitted. Shugo nodded and held out a hand to help the lost neko up and she took his hand, pulling herself to her feet.

"C'mon, Satou. I'll walk you home." Shugo said quickly, turning around and stuffing his hands in his pockets. Satou giggled and nodded, running after him and tackling him from behind.

"Piggy back!" She demanded.

"Satou, you're acting like a five year old."

"B-B-But!"

Shugo turned over his shoulder at Satou, whose eyes were watering a bit.

Then he dropped her.

"Ow! That was mean, nyu!"

"I know."

"... Say yer sowwy!"

"Never." He teased. Satou pouted, her cat ears and tail showing again, and then got to her feet.

"... I wanna go home." She grumbled. Shugo smirked and nodded.

"Sure. Whatever, Koneko-chan."

"That's the nickname Kisshu gave meeeee!"

"Well, it suits you. Now c'mon, or I'll leave you behind."

Satou: Ta-DA! I've found our Mistress of Death, who will hopefully appear in the next chappyter :3 Sorry for taking soooooo long to update TT;
