Satou: ; Thanks. Well.. Enjoy?

CHAPTER 2

"Ugg! Ryou is such a jerk!" Ichigo had through the jungle. The looked a lot prettier and less scary from this height. Ichigo sighed, completely forgetting Ryou, and leaned against a tree trunk. So... She was stuck as a human? Until she got Kish to date her. Then she'd turn back into a cat. That sucked. Kish would only date her if she was human and if he did she'd become a cat!

"WHY CAN'T FATE JUST LEAVE ME ALONE NYA?!" Ichigo shrieked. A couple birds scattered from the tree tops and Ichigo sighed heavily. "Why? This is so cruel... It's wrong..."

"What's wrong?" Asked a voice from above Ichigo. Ichigo looked up and noticed Kish. That was kind of sudden... And only the second paragraph of the 2nd chapter! Too fast for Ichigo's comfort. Something was up...

"N-Nothing!" Ichigo stuttered, her face turning cherry red. Nice going, Ichigo! He's right here and you haven't decided what to do! Arrrg! Ichigo's thoughts were just as scrambled as the words she started saying.

"Uh... Um... Thank you for the bell. Ah, what... Never mind. Maybe... Uh... Um..."

Calm down, Ichigo! Just stay calm and don't let the secret out!

"Nothing's wrong at all. I just got lost, that's all... Why are you here?" She asked quickly.

"I could ask you the same, the park doesn't open yet." Kish replied, folding his arms over his chest and staring hard at her. Something about this girl was so familiar...

"And if it hasn't opened then you shouldn't be here!" Ichigo said firmly. That's right, Ichigo. Keep him from falling in love with you until you figure out what to do.

"I work here."

"DO NOT!"

"How would you know?"

"YOU NEVER FED ME IN THE MORNING!!! Uck... Ah..." Ichigo turned a couple shades more red and stared at her feet "Sorry 'bout that..."

"Never fed you? What's that supposed to mean?" Kish asked. He seemed to be teasing her as he walked closer. He liked her attitude. It was cute. She was cute. Like a cat.

"Stay back! I've got claws, uh, wait, I've got a purse full of rocks!"

"No you don't, Koneko-chan."

"D-Don't call me that!" Ichigo screamed, turning very red. He gave me a cute nickname! Squeee! She thought excitedly, before realizing that was bad in this situation. Oh crap! A NICKNAME? He likes me! Yay! Uck... Wait... Arrrg!

"STAY AWAY!" Ichigo screamed as Kish grabbed her chin and held her still. He's going to kiss me...? Should I be happy or scared?

There was a loud cracking sound, the sound of a twig snapping under someone's weight, and Kish let her go and moved swiftly in front of her in a protective manner. Ichigo's eyes widened and her cat ears appeared. She yelped and covered her head, but they were gone before she could try and hide them.

"What's going on, Kish?"

"How do you know my name?"

"Lucky guess, I guess... Ah!" Something shot out of the trees and sliced the tree behind Ichigo in two. Ichigo yelped in terror, trying to get out of the way and ending up hugging Kish from behind. "What's going on?!"

"Tart! Is that you?!" Kish yelled angrily. Ichigo trembled uncontrollably as a large plant with razor sharp leaves pushed the trees apart. It had been one of its leaves that had sliced the tree behind her.

"Yeah! So?!"

"Stop it!"

"Why?!"

"There's a human here!"

Tart gasped in surprise and made himself known, peering over his plant monster and at Ichigo.

"Actually, Ryou says I'm a Mew..." Ichigo said quietly, but lucky for her Kish didn't here.

"How do you know she's not a Mew Mew?" Tart snapped "They've been wandering around and screwing up our plans!"

"Are there any Mews like her?"

"Yes! All the Mews are ugly old hags!" Protested Tart. Ichigo and Kish both twitched with anger at the same time.

"I WOULDN'T BE CALLING ME OLD, YOU RUNT!" Ichigo yelled at Tart. Tart glared at her and twitched with his own anger.

"HAG!"

"MIDGET!"

"HAG!"

"RUNT!"

"HAG!"

"RUNT!"

"STOP IT!" Kish yelled angrily. "Tart, go to your room! And you!" He turned to Ichigo and she winced in fear.

"Don't get involved with idiots like him! They aren't worth your time, Honey."

H-HONEY?! YUM! What a second... Honey? My dad called mom Honey...

Ichigo felt like her heart would stop.

He's acting like we're already married!

"H-Hai (yes)." Ichigo replied softly, hanging her head and nodding shyly. Tart didn't leave though. He merely looked around frantically. "Kish? They're here." He whispered. Kish frooze and pushed Icigo behind him, once again acting very perverted... I mean protective. Yeah...

"Stop right there Kish!" A girl's voice called as a figure landed on a tree branch, the branch of a whole, safe tree. The figure had bright blue hair and blue eyes, wearing an old light blue outfit. She also had blue bird wings and a feathery tall. Ichigo opened her mouth in awe. She even had a pretty bow and arrow!

"We're not going to let you and Tar-Tar destroy our lovely home!" Cried another voice, this one less serious and more childish, as a short figure fell from the sky and tackled poor Tart. Tart fell off his plant monster and screamed in anger.

"LET ME GO!"

"Never Na No Da!" The blonde, yellow monkey girl squealed in delight "Mew Purin won't let her friend go no da!" The girl, Mew Purin, said happily.

"Purin, don't flirt with the enemy." The blue figure said miserably "Try to be more serious. even Retasu works harder then you and she cares about everything she sees!"

As if on que, a tall girl with long green hair, a green outfit and white ribbons coming from her head landed next to the blue girl.

"Actually, Mint, I think it's cute..." The green girl, Retasu, said quietly. The blue haired girl, Mint, sighed. Then she looked up in delight. "And now for the most lovely of us all... The fabulous MEW ZAKURO!"

Mew Zakuro had long purple hair, a purple outfit and the ears and tail of a gray wolf. She showed no signs of emotion but merely glared at Kish. Kish gulped and backed into the tree Tart had destroy, Ichigo right behind him.

"Uh... Tart?"

"Yeah?!" Tart called, still trying to get Purin to leave him be.

"Do something."

"I CAN'T!"

"Tar-Tar! Tar-Tar!" Purin squealed happily. Tart finally got her to let go by tickling her and flew back onto his plant monster.

"Kirema Plant! GO!"

"Gwooooooah!" Moaned the plant as it leapt forward. Ichigo stared. What was going on? She was the only Mew...

"First to save the nice young lady! Ribbon Lettuce Rush!" Retasu cried out. A stream of water came from no where and pushed Kish aside, but he grabbed Ichigo's hand and dragged her with her.

"Kya!" Ichigo screamed, holding Kish's hand tightly. She was about to scream again but realized a new set of words was popping into her head.

"Mew Mew Strawberry! Metamorphosis nya!" She yelled. Almost instantly she began to glow and, out of shock, Kish let her hand go.

"Kyaaa! KISH!" Ichigo screamed at the top of her lungs while glowing. The glow slowly faded away to leave Ichigo as the Pink Kitty Mew Ichigo.

"Whoa. Another Mew?" Mint said quietly in awe. Zakuro stared in surprise as well but there wasn't much time to sit and stare. Tart's Kirema Plant shot a razor leaf at them and it sliced the feathers on Mint's tail. Mint shreiked and raised a hand into the air, glaring at the plant.

"Ribbon Minto Echo!" She screamed. A flash of violet power shot from the bow and arrow set and knocked the plant over, but didn't destroy it as Minto thought it would.

"My attack isn't working!" Mint complained. The plant sent another leaf at Mint but Zakuro picked Mint up and got out of the way quickly.

"Onee-sama!" Mint said happily, hugging Zakuro. Purin glared at Tart and two rings appeared in her hands.

"That was mean, Tar-Tar na no da!"

"STOP CALLING ME THAT!" Tart screamed, but Purin wasn't listening.

"Ribbon... Pudding Ring! INFERNO!" Purin yelled. The plant was caught in a tube of orange jelly. All the Mews turned to Ichigo, who was desperately trying to get Retasu to stop attacking him.

"Help out already!" Mint spat angrily, but Ichigo wasn't listening.

"Mint-onee-chan! The pudding ring won't last forever na no da!" Purin yelled. Mint nodded and pointed her arrow at the plant once again.

"Ribbon Mint Echo!" This time Mint's attack completely destroyed the Kirema Plant and Tart teleported away, right after he stuck his tongue out at Purin. She smiled and waved in return.

"Kish! Kish! You ok?!" Ichigo asked loudly, shaking Kish back and forth after Retasu stopped attacking.

"I'm SO sorry! I didn't know he was your boyfriend!" Retasu yelled in panic, rushing towards Ichigo "I'm so sorry!"

"He isn't my boyfriend!" Ichigo said quickly "If he was I'd be a cat right now! Waaaaaah!" Ichigo started crying for some reason. Kish was knocked out and Retasu seemed to completely understand her pain over Kish and the boyfriend thing.

"It's ok. You're a Mew too and so am I... I understand. I can't date he guy I like because of this ether..." Retasu said softly when Ichigo's sobs grew a bit fainter.

"It's not fair! All I wanted was to be his girlfriend!!!"

"The girlfriend of your enemy?" Mint snapped. She'd been standing behind Ichigo the whole time "My my. This is interesting."

"Don't be so mean, Mint-onee-chan na no da!" Purin snapped "She doesn't know the facts! Don't confuse her yet na no da!"

"What nya?"

"Too late." Mint said in a sing-song voice "We'll have to take her back to Keichiiro."

"Eh?"

"Don't worry... Oh, what's your name?" Retasu asked cheerfully. Ichigo froze.

"This is sad. She doesn't even know her own name." Mint said miserably.

"Awww! That's sad na no da! What should we call her no da?" Every faced Purin, who was acting like Ichigo was a new pet.

"How about Max na no da?!"

"This is a girl." Zakuro said coldly. Purin sighed.

"Darn... Heicha? Wait, that's my sister's name... Na no daa..."

"Uh... Kish called me Koneko..."

"Koneko? Nah. It'll give away the fact you're part cat... What else did he call you?" Mint said thoughtfully.

"Honey?"

"HECK NO!" Mint screamed.

"Ok then... Ichigo?"

"That'll do. Welcome to the team, Ichigo."

"What team?"

"We'll explain later! Leave your future to us!"

"EH?!?"
