It had been two days since Ichigo had fainted and she had seemingly recovered from that incident. Now she was back to her cheery, ditzy selt…mostly.

"Hey Masaya, what's up?"

"I should say the same to you. You've been out of the normal lately, are you ok?" Masaya reached out to touch her head to check for a fever.

"I'm fine! Why!" Ichigo grinned.

Masaya sighed. "Nothing I guess…." The bell rang and they both ran off to class.

"Bye!" Ichigo waved.

"See you later!" Masaya waved back tensly.

"Good Afternoon class, I am your substitute Mr. Koshiro Iyama. Today we will study endangered animals…."

"Huh?" Ichigo furrowed her eyebrows at the strange teacher. Something about him seemed extremely familiar…in the bad sense.

"As you all know, recently there was a battle of the 'Tokyo Mew Mew' and creatures called the 'cyniclons'. The cyniclons wanted to take the earth away from us because they knew we were destroying it and they wanted the planet back!" Mr. Iyama's voice started to rise as if he were angry.

"Dude, like, why are you so mad? The Tokyo Mew Mew saved us!" A girl with silver eyes with a light black touch and orange wavy hair in two pigtails and…Ichigo squinted…faded red highlights….?

Mr. Iyama snickered. "Not completely…." He folded his hands behind his back and sauntered around the classroom, everyone watching him attentively. When he arrived at Ichigo's desk, he slightly leaned and whispered under his breath; "Isn't that right my kitty-cat."

Ichigo gasped. Then it all came back to her; the green hair, the pale skin, the sly voice…it was Kish! Ichigo gritted her teeth and glared. "What are you doing here!"

"Now, class, I wanted to discuss what we should be aware of…when the Tokyo Mew Mew's supposedly 'destroyed' the cyniclons, they merely 'destroyed' deep blue. But I doubt Deep Blue remembers such. For all anyone knows, he's just another high school kid, probably in your grade. Anyway, everyone has passed the thought that the cyniclons are still alive…and I'm not sure the Tokyo Mew Mew's would be ready for their attack…wherever they are…." He smirked.

He knows that they're gone….
