Chapter 7 : The green light
The next day : It was 8:30 am at cafe Mew Mew.Retasu entered inside.
"Sorry guys, I´m late.Where´s Shirogane-san ? "
Ichigo answered :
" He´s still upstairs, preparing.
" preparing for what ?
" Didn´t he told you ? Cause, he was supposed to…
" Tell me what ?
" Well, the energy we´ve been looking for has changed her target, she´s heading south.We were gonna go look for it today.
" Ok.I suppose he forgot to tell me.So, we aren´t working today ?
" Nope ! " answered Minto.
" Well, if you´re looking for me, I´ll be outside.
" Retasu, wait ! " said Ichigo.
" What is it ?
" Where were you last night, I tried to call you, but you weren´t at home.
" Oh, that.I… was still here, working.
" So, are you ok with the fact that a thing out here wants your death ?
" I just guess it couldn´t be worse.And I´m sure we´ll get rid of it before it´s too late.
" Well, then that´s really good.
" Thanks, all of you.I´m going outside !
" Okay, see ya ! " they all said.
Retasu got out and closed the door behind her, still thinking about her strange nightmare last night.
I really felt like this thing was calling me…what could it possibly mean ?
Suddenly she felt that something was wrong.She wasn´t alone…
Retasu looked up, and she screamed :
In front of her, flotting in the air and glowing, there was a shining green energy ball, the one that wanted her !
Then the door opened and Retasu´s four friends got out.The energy quickly flew away.
" Retasu ! What´s going on here ? "
" No...nothing. " she answered.
And she ran into the café.
It happened again ! I ´ve got to tell him !
Retasu ran into the café and quickly got upstairs at Ryou´ s room :
Ryou was looking at the window.When he saw her entering, he turned his head.
" Shirogane-san ! " Retasu called him.
But before she could say anything else, Retasu slipped on the floor.Ryou held her before she could fall.
Retasu opened her eyes, who met his, and then she blushed :
" Uh…hi. "
Please, Ichigo, don´t come in this time... Thought Retasu.
Suddenly the door oppened, because Purin had chosen this very moment to sweep in like a whirlwind :
" Hi ! You couldn´t believe what Purin sa… "
She saw everything, and she couldn´t believe it.A cold airstream passed through the window…
Deathly hush…interrupted once again this time by Retasu´s voice :
" This is terribly embarassing ! "
Purin, who wasn´t saying anything for a moment started to become very happy :
" Wow ! This is so cool ! Don´t you worry guys, Purin won´t tell anything ! Your secret is well kept, na do da ! "
Then she ran off as quickly as she got in, and a few seconds later the two of´em heard her shout :
" Hey guys ! Guess what happened upstairs, na do da ! "
Retasu reacted :
" No ! Purin, wait up ! "
And she ran off too, leaving Ryou all alone :
Wow…this is the second time that kinda thing happens to me.
