(REALITY!)
It's been a little over a week. Satou had been chatting online with Amme Motto nonstop... Kind of. Amme hadn't replied to Satou's last e-mail in a few days. It was getting a bit scary, and Satou was having random spazz attacks. She'd been to spazzy during the last fight with Nightmare Bugs in Dream World that Shugo had even started to try and cheer her up. This was big news, since Shugo rarely cared about the stupid neko.
"Nyaaa! What is Amme got swallowed by a whale while taking a shower in the sewer!" Satou whined as she walked to school with Shugo, practically crying on the poor boy's shoulder.
"I highly doubt it..." Shugo said slowly, looking a bit annoyed. She'd been like this every morning. He'd gone out shopping with her the day before and Satou had finally gotten around to buying some arm warmers like Cupcake's and a new black skirt. Before that, he'd brought her to a movie so she'd calm down. But none of it seemed to be working.
"Satou, you still see her in Dream World."
"Nuh-uh. She hasn't beens sleeping, I guess, 'cause she's never there."
Shugo just sighed. They were now at school, and he felt it was best not to bring up Amme anymore. Satou's worry fit was going to be getting rather unhealthy soon.
"Nyaaaa... So sleepy..."
"Satou..." Shugo said slowly, turned around and grabbing Satou's shoulders so she'd look him straight in the face, "Now that we bring up the subject of Dream World, you don't appear much until really late and then you leave really early."
"... Nuh-uh!"
"Uh-huh."
"... Nevvvverrrr!"
"Yesssss."
Satou sighed and then looked away.
"It's not meh fault."
"What's not your fault?"
"That I'm not sleeping well. Izz not my fault."
Shugo just sighed and started dragging Satou off to class again.
"C'mon, I can hear the bell, Satou. You, Meron, Sumi, and I are having a loooong chat at lunch. Got it?"
"Whatever. I'm sleepy."
"Great."
A couple hours and naps in class later, Satou brought her lunch to an empty classroom. Shugo had been hosting little Dream World related meetings here recently. The room was empty, so the tired kitty put her lunch on a table and sighed.
"Where are they nyooooo? Oh right... I never told Sumi and Meron to come. Better go get them, then, nyu..."
Taking a deep breath, Satou got out of her chair and wandered out into the hallway. She could hear a lot of noise and some loud arguing. A fight, perhaps? The cat girl's cat ears suddenly appeared and she put her hands over them as she walked out to get a better view.
Down one of the long halls was a fight, just as expected. Two kids were fighting a very violent and dangerous fight that was worrying just about everyone around. Even the teachers were rushing forward in hopes of breaking the fight up.
"What's going on?" Satou squeaked to the kid next to her.
"Those two idiots are fighting randomly." Commented the kid with a shrug, "Anyways, it looks like the teachers can handle it."
"Yeah right. those two have been mad at each other for weeks, it's not clearing up anytime soon." Commented another kid. Satou just sighed and watched. She wanted to take a nap...
"Satou!" Called a voice from behind. Satou turned around to see Shugo and Sumi running towards her, looking a bit worried.
"Satou, c'mon." Shugo urged, "Meron's in the room. We've gotta talk."
"But there's a fight. Mew Mews to da rescuuuue!" Satou protested. Shugo Obviously didn't care, because he just grabbed her now-there tail and dragged her away while she screeched in pain.
"My tail." Satou whimpered once she was in the room, "You hurt it."
"Oh well. Now listen, we've got important matters to discuss."
"What?" Sumi asked, handing Satou a band aid for her throbbing tail, "What's wrong?"
"Last night, another shard fell and someone's got it." Shugo explained, "It fell in this basic area, so we've got to locate it and put it back on the wall."
"GOT IT!" Meron chirped happily, "Now, can I go get something totally awesome from my locker, na no da?"
"... Sure."
"YAY!" Meron, grinning ear-to-ear, got up and marched out into the hall. The door slammed shut behind her and everyone fell silent.
"Wait, nya... Isn't Meron's locker on the hall with the fight?" Satou asked quietly.
More silence.
Then the words the three had been dreading.
"STOP FIGHTING, NA NO DA! I can't reach my locker, na no daaa!"
As quick as lightning, the three scrambled to their feet and rushed out, only to find Meron was thawpping the two fighting kids with a nearby text book. The fight was quickly broken up and all attention turned to Meron.
"This is bad." Shugo sighed, "Satou, go back into the room and transform."
"Why, nya?" Satou asked quietly.
"Meron's about to get herself beat up. Now hurry!"
Satou pouted lightly and walked back into the classroom, taking out her Dream Mew Pendent. It was already glowing a bit and, as it glowed, something near the fight began glowing as well. It was an object in the hand of one of the kids. This quickly caught Shugo's eye. It was in the hand of the female fighter.
"Mew Mew Sugar. Metamorphosis." Satou whispered, kissing her pendent. She transformed quickly, with no one to see her, and then rushed out of the room.
"Stop right there, you bullies!" She snapped, "How dare you set your sights on a girl who's just trying to get into her locker! And why are you fighting in school anyways, nya? For the peace of school, Mew Satou is gonna be of service, nyan!"
Shugo sighed. No need for the speech... But oh well, it was too late now.
The fighting was now very very stopped, and everyone was staring at the pink and black Mew girl who was standing in front of them.
"Oh wow!"
"HOW CUTE!"
"Are those real?"
"Idiot cosplayer!"
Mew Satou found herself blushing as random cries of awe and disgust came from the crowd. The teachers were talking about the dress code and Mew Satou's tube top.
"OH DARNIT! She's here!" Screeched the female fighter angrily. No one seemed to notice, but Shugo, as the girl slipped through the door leading to the stairs. There was a burst of light, and then Yousei burst through the door, panting heavily and holding her pixie stick in one hand while the other hand was balled up.
"DANGIT! I thought I killed you!"
"Me too! But the world of the dead was really comfy and smelly, so I got out!"
"ARRRRRRG! Then I'll kill you again!"
"Nuh-uh! I won't let cha!"
Satou, obviously, was no longer tired, because she quickly struck a Mew Ichigo "Chikyuu no mirai" pose and giggled.
"I won't let cha hurt peoples, nya!"
"Whatever! IT'S TIME FOR A SONG!"
"Never! SUGAR CHIME!"
Mew Satou chraged towards Yousei with her Sugar Chime and began thwapping the pixie repetitively with her weapon, but to the delight of her audience. The fight was just getting started when a loud rumbling sound came from the ceiling.
Everyone in the school froze and looked up nervously. Yousei gulped and unballed her hand, letting a little dream shard fall to the ground.
"What's that sound?" Yousei asked nervously.
"Dunno." Mew Satou replied quietly.
And then, suddenly, it happened. Dun dun dun!
The ceiling caved in! Mew Satou and Yousei both screamed as the ceiling above them caved in and the girls found themselves hugging eachother for comfort.
"Oh no... Is that?" Shugo said quietly, eyes wide with horror.
"Don't tell me that the map worked, na no da..." Meron said quietly, backing away a bit. Shugo and Sumi quietly ran forward as the dust settled and out of the clouds of yuckyness came...
"SATOU-CHAN! I FOUND YOU!" Screeched Amme as she warpped her arms around the pink Mew. Meron squealed excitedly and hugged Amme, but Shugo quickly pryed the two girls off of Satou and sighed.
"C-C'mon, you two."
"OK! Good luck, Satou!"
"Ok! THANK YOU!" Mew Satou called.
"Grrrr... I'm leaving." Yousei said quickly, running back to the door she'd come from. Mew Satou blinked, then shrugged and turned back to the students.
"Ok then! THANK YOU FOR BEING GOOD N' JUNK! I'm on my way, then! JA NE!" Mew Satou laughed nervously and then flew away as fast as she could. Before anyone could realize she was gone, Shugo snatched her and dragged her into the classroom. The crazy Mew Mew glowed as he dragged, returning to normal and giggling. Shugo sighed, then realized he'd yanked her too hard and found himself falling to the ground with Satou on top of him.
"Awww! You two are so silly!" Amme chirped, "Can you believe that I got here? I followed the map and then VOLIA!"
"Great. I guess you should call your parents." Shugo muttered, waiting for Satou to get off. The cat girl blinked and then quickly got up, laughing nervously.
"Anyways, that was fun."
"Yeah, sure." Shugo groaned, "Anyways, Satou, did you get the Dream Shard?"
"... Huh?"
"Dream. Shard. Yousei dropped it when Amme appeared."
Satou froze and then started laughing nervously.
"Eheheheh..."
"Sa. To. Oh." Shugo said firmly, "Where. Is. The. Dr.Eam. Sha.Ard.?"
"It's not meh fault!" Satou wailed.
"YOU MEAN YOU LEFT IT!"
As the crowd cleared up, a young girl visiting the school ran out to the hall and picked up the Dream Shard Yousei had left. She smiled, looking closely at it before gasping in surprise.
"Oh wow! Izzat Mew Mew in dere!" She asked excitedly, "It tis! It's da Mew Mews!"
"Emily, come on now." The girl mother's called, "We've got to look around more before deciding if we should transfer you to the elementary school here."
"It's not Em-Lee! It's Zoey!" Emily corrected as she ran after her mother, "Lookit, mommy, this rock looks like its got Zoey n' Corina n' everyone in it!"
"That's nice, sweetie."
"Looook!"
But Emily's mother didn't look. She just kept walking, leaving her daughter to stare sadly at the rock on her own. Oh well... She'd put this stone on some string and put it on the neck of her kitty doll...
That night, Satou and Amme found themselves in the same house. Satou had decided to take Amme to her house, and Amme's parents were surprisingly ok with their daughter staying at a stranger's house. The parents of the two kids were too confused to ask how the girls knew eachother.
So Amme Pepper's old bed, since Satou's sister had gotten anew bed and room, and Satou still slept in her old bed, which was a twin to Pepper's.
((Dream World))
"Nyaaaaaaa! What a day." Satou yawned as she got up in Dream World. While she usually woke up feeling great, she had a strange feeling today. It the gut of her stomach, she felt sick and... Scared...
"What a bad feline... But it'll probably got away..."
Satou yawned again, then gasped in shock and surprise.
"Did I just say... What a bad FELINE? Was that a... Cat pun?" She asked herself, hands over her mouth now. What was that all about!
"N-No way. I would never say something so... Mew Mew Power is..."
There was another long pause. Unless the poor girl was mistaken, she'd sounded really preppy when she said "Mew Mew Power"...
"Nya! What's happening to meow? AH! I did it again!"
"Satou, what's going on?" Sumi asked, barely looking amused, "You're talking like Zoey."
"Eheheheh... It's nothing. Where's Kisshu?"
Kisshu sighed, walking into the room with a very stressed look on her face.
"Kisshu? What's wrong?"
"Kiss you? Who's that?" Kisshu asked them, looking a bit confused, "Isn't that kind of a disturbing name?"
"... Eh?" Satou muttered, eyes wide, "Wh-What do you mean?"
"Yeah. You're Kisshu." Sumi said quietly.
"No. My name's Dren."
Everything stopped. All the sounds, the two girls... Everything. Satou just stared in a horrified way and Sumi passed out.
"Eh... EH!" Satou screamed. What was going on!
Satou: Told ya that it was scarey o.o;
Kisshu: I am Kisshu. ee;
Satou: Anyways, nyan. No one got ALL the couples, but you all get cookies anyways o,0;
Kisshu: x-x;
Satou: ANYWAYS! If anyone hasn't already guessed... Dream World's next few chapters are "dubbed". So I need dubbed names for Shugo, Satou, Sumi, Amme, Meron, and Kelly/Mew Universe. o.0;; I haven't thought up any good ones x-x; Waaaah... And I don't know Keichiiro's dub name ;
