Alright, fourth chapter! If anyone can tell me, do you have to put a disclaimer on every chapter? –Sweat drop-

Rikku: Sorry for the delay everyone… Pretty much had extensive writer's block for half a week, and it's been driving me crazy!

Kish: Calm down… 0.o

Disclaimer: Nope, still don't own TMM

Chapter Four: Visit

Kasai woke with a start and winced slightly as the pain from her injuries rushed back to her.

She sat up weakly and looked around again, remembering what had happened before she blacked out. She was lying on a makeshift bed in a dark room with computers and monitors.

"So you're finally awake." A voice came from the darkness. Ryou walked over to her from a computer monitor.

"Who are you? And what happened to Sakura?" Kasai replied, trying to stand up.

"Take it easy," Ryou said calmly. "If you're talking about that little furball, it's playing with Pudding."

"Pudding?" Kasai stood up fully now. Her arm was bandaged, and she could feel similar bandages were binding the wound on her back.

Ryou just sighed at her stubbornness. "Come on," He said, leading her into the café.

Kasai looked around and remembered. "This is that café…"

Ryou just nodded, but pointed to Pudding when he spotted her. "That's Pudding. Go over and talk to her, I'm sure she'll know where your pet is."

Kasai nodded back, making her way over to the little girl bouncing around the room. Pudding stopped once she saw Kasai, and waved happily, running over.

"Hiya! I guess you're feeling better." Sakura popped out from behind Pudding's head, looking good as new. Pudding picked Sakura up and handed her back to Kasai. "She's lotsa fun!" Pudding said happily.

Kasai took Sakura, putting her on her shoulder. She remained silent, looking around as if she was searching for something. She found Ichigo's pink hair and walked over as if she didn't feel the slightest bit of pain.

Ichigo finally noticed her approach and smiled a bit. "You okay?"

Kasai just nodded. "Was… Was that you in the forest?"

"Uh," Ichigo was silent for a moment before speaking again. "Yeah…" She said quietly, nodding.

There wasn't any customers left and the tables looked as if they had just been cleared off and cleaned up. A sunset could be seen shining through the windows, light orange and pink colors coating the clouds around the sun as it started to disappear behind a mountain.

Just then, the door to Café Mew Mew opened, and Kish, Pie, and Tart walked through. Kish was grinning, his hands behind his head, Pie was just continuing to walk, arms crossed, and Tart was smiling, looking around a bit.

"Hiya Kitty Cat!" Kish said to Ichigo as they approached, then looked over at Kasai. "Who's this?"

Kasai blinked, and then replied. "Kasai…" She said quietly. "What's with your ears?" She said, pointing to her own.

"They're aliens!" Pudding jumped in.

"It's true," Lettuce came over as well. "This is Kish, Pie and Tart. You see, they used to live on Earth a long time ago, but were driven away. When they returned, Earth was populated by Humans." She explained.

"…Okay. I've come to a conclusion." Kasai said after a few seconds of awkward silence. "You're all crazy." She walked past them all, grabbing her bag which was sitting on an empty table. Sakura scurried after her, as she had climbed down sometime when Kasai was talking to Ichigo.

Tart picked Sakura up on her way, examining her. Sakura struggled to be let go, but Tart just blinked. "What's this thing?" He asked nobody specific.

Kasai stopped, then turned and walked back to them. She walked over and took Sakura, placing her on her shoulder. She then turned, walking toward the exit again without a word.

Tart sweat-dropped, then turned back to the girls. "What's up with her?"

"She's a Mew Mew, but she doesn't know it yet." Mint said simply, taking a sip of her tea.

"Is she another kitty?" Kish asked as he grinned again.

"We don't even know…" Ichigo trailed off.

Meanwhile, Pie had disappeared and they all looked around. "Where'd he go?" Tart asked.

Pie had left the café, and found Kasai lying in a tree not far. Sakura was off her shoulder, climbing around on the tree.

"So you're a Mew?" He asked. He had missed most of the conversation inside, but obviously caught the part about her being a Mew Mew.

"What?" Kasai said lazily, playing with a lock of her hair.

"You don't even know what your own kind is?" Pie said, leaning against the same tree boredly.

"All I know is that this is the weirdest place I've ever been to, as well the people." Kasai crossed her arms and stared at a cloud in the sky. Sakura had climbed onto Pie's shoulder, and Pie stared at the creature for a moment.

Kasai leaned over the side of the branch. "Heh, looks like Sakura's drawn to you." She lay back down. "Consider yourself lucky, she doesn't trust just anyone."

Pie grumbled a bit, but then remained silent.

"Well, I'll be going now." Kasai said after a long while. Sakura looked over and scurried back up the tree and onto Kasai's shoulder. Kasai jumped down from the branch and walked towards the forest.

Pie just shrugged after about half a minute of watching her and walked back to the café.

"There you are. Where'd you go?" Kish asked.

"Outside." Pie answered simply. Kish shrugged and turned back to Ichigo and the others. "So, what're you gonna do about her?" He asked.

Ichigo shook her head. "Don't know…"

Rikku: Yay! I got over writer's block! –Does a little dance-

Kish: -Rubs lump on head- Why'd ya have to go and hit me last time?

Rikku: -Stops dancing- Because.

Kish: …Because why?

Rikku: …

Kish: You're mean.
