Satou: Isn't it wonderful? I've barely even touched the actual plot of the story and I've got 90 reviews! I WANT 200!

CHAPTER 9! With 90 reviews! HOW COOL IS THAT!

"Here you are, Retasu. Pillows." Kisshu said with a loud sigh, walking into the dark room with a mountain of pillows in his arms, "Hope they help."

"Oh, that's ok. This movie isn't so scary since I've got Shirogane-san here to warn me when something's going to happen." Retasu explained in a soft whisper.

"Oh, that's great... HEY WAIT! You started the movie while I was gone! FLUFF!" Kisshu tossed the pillows into the air and then, suddenly, there was a loud popping sound. In mere seconds, the amount of pillows doubled, then tripled and then, uh, quadripled... Or something... Whatever, there were a lot of pillows now.

"NYA!" Ichigo shrieked. As it started raining pillows, Minto snatched the remote to turn the TV off, but Masaya fell out of the sky from no where and knocked the remote out of her hand before that sound happen.

"ACK! YOU CREEP! GET OFF ME!" Minto screeched, kicking Masaya across the room just as a large, blue pillow fell on her head. The rest of the pillows also came falling and, before you could say something really long that would have taken over 30 seconds to say, the room was practically covered in pillows. They were almost floating, since there were spaces were air could stay and make moving around possible. The five Mew Girls began shrieking in terror. All but Purin. She was shrieking in glee.

"What happened?" Ichigo demanded, her voice a bit muffled in the pillows. Luckily, Kisshu managed to hear her and she could hear him thanks to her cat ears.

"I'm sorry, I must've said the word."

"What word, nya?"

"It was Pai's idea!" Taruto quickly said, "Pai decided that since she didn't have many resources to survive off, he'd install this device that doubles and triples the items we're holding. There's a certain word for everything. K-I-T-T-Y doubles things, D-O-G triples them... But we could never figure out what word filled a room with stuff. But thanks to Pai, just in case this happens, there will always be air pockets here no matter how much stuff we put here."

"Why would you care? You guys don't need air to breath." Ichigo snapped.

"Kisshu suggested it. He's been wanting to save you guys for a while now. That's also why there's air on the ship."

"Oh... Thank you, Kisshu, nya."

Kisshu turned a bit red and smiled faintly. Thank you... It made him happy to hear her say that so truthfully...

"Your welcome, Honey. You can give me a kiss and we'll call it even."

"LEAVE ICHIGO ALONE!" Minto snapped. As it appeared, Minto had been worming her way around the pillows for some time now to find Ichigo.

"HEY!" Kisshu protested. Almost the second he said this, though, he made a bad move. He moved and knocked Minto, who was above him, off her balance and she fell right on him.

"ACK! Y-Y-You!" She stuttered, her face turning cherry pink, "PERVERT!"

"Hey, YOU fell on ME!"

Meanwhile, Ichigo was burning with jealously.

"Hold on Kisshu! I mean, Minto! I'm coming!" She called, now struggling around in hopes of reaching Kisshu, though we all know she really wanted to see Minto.

Minto obviously heard this, though, and she looked down at Kisshu. Taking a deep breath and swallowing, Minto quickly moved away from Kisshu and vanished out of view just as Ichigo came, making soft, muffled sobbing sounds as she left.

"KISSHU!" Ichigo cried out happily, hugging the alien boy almost the instant she found him, "You're ok!"

"Y-Yeah. Of course." Kisshu said with fake happiness, his golden eyes straying to the place Minto had exited.

Minto... What's her problem? Did I do something to make her sad? Blegh, I don't care about her.

Kisshu returned Ichigo's hug and, for the first time, Ichigo just giggled and smiled, obviously not minding. Actually, she liked this.

Minto somehow made her way away, out of the pillows and through a sliding door. As she opened the door, some pillows fell and she could hear surprise gasps from the others as the pillows shifted towards the exit. Minto crawled out of the mess, then got to her feet and dartted down the long hallway, tears in her eyes.

It wasn't fair! Ichigo had always been her best friend, and she'd been protecting Ichigo from that perv! Sure, it made her a tiny bit happy that Ichigo was in love with someone who cared so much for her, but why HIM? It just wasn't fair that she'd like HIM! And care more about this guy she'd just recently fallen in love with, the guy she'd hated days before... Like him more than her! They were best friends...

"Oneesama!" Minto gasped, sliding the kitchen door open. She knew Zakuro was her, she just knew it. It was fangirl's instinct. Minto knew that when she was sad, she could turn to the person she loved more than the world...

But things weren't as the lorikeet girl had planned. When she slid the door open, she found Pai and Zakuro hugging and...

"Oneesama... He's k-k-kis--- Don't worry, I'll get him away!" She said quietly, her whole body shakey and dumb. Please don't ask why Pai and Zakuro are suddenly so very honest, by the way. It defies all logic, but it had to happen someday, so... Congrats, Zakuro and Pai kissed today. Be happy, it'll never happen again!

"Oh. Minto." Zakuro said quickly, turning a bit red, "Uh... It's ok. Really. Don't bother."

"Wh-what? Don't tell you like him back..." Minto said quietly. What was going on? She didn't need a reply. In stead, Minto just darted out of the room and slammed the door behind her. Not Zakuro too...

I wish he'd just left me! That pervert should've just let me die! No one here cares about me! NO ONE! I hate this!

Minto kept running until, finally, she found a door she'd never seen before. It was large, with a red carpet-covered floor leading up to the large, metal door. Desperate to find a place where she could cry without worrying about being found, Minto scrambled up the stairs and pressed a hand against the door. It was cold... And seemed to melt as her warm hands trembled against it, like ice.

"What do you want?" Asked a girly-sounding voice. Minto gasped, feeling very cold now

"Just leave me alone!"

"Why are you sad? Have they betrayed you as well?"

Minto paused. What was this voice talking about? Betray? As in her friends?

"My friends left me. The people I trust more than anyone! Retasu has Ryou, Purin as Taruto, Ichigo has Kisshu, and Zakuro-oneesama has P-Pai! It isn't fair! I'm all alone now!"

There was momentary silence. Then Minto felt as if someone had put a hand on her head and was attempting to comfort her.

"Me as well. Those miserable servants have left me."

"Ser...vants?" Minto repeated quietly, "Then you must be..."

"I am Deep Blue. You must be the Lorikeet Mew, Mew Mint."

Minto twitched and pulled away from the door, which she just now realized she'd been sinking in to.

"Leave me alone, you monster! I can't want anything to do with you anymore!"

"Oh... But you've got more to do with me now than you could ever imagine."

Minto glared at the door, then took off again. She'd NEVER go near that dumb door AGAIN!

Satou: Sorry about the shortness. x-x; Yes, Berri and Meguro will probably appear next chapter. Bwahaha. Plot ish starting up very soon, expect drama and stupidity. o.o; And stuff. Whoops n' stuff...
