Evil Mew?

"So…" said Ichigo as she and the girls were leaving Café Mew Mew.

"So what? You got a problem, Ichigo?" asked Mint, in her usual preppy tone. It wasn't her fault that she was filthy rich.

"No. You're the one with the problem, Mint," Ichigo said, making everyone laugh. Mint just rolled her eyes and strolled off down the street.

"I'll see you guys tomorrow!" she called.

"Bye!" everyone yelled back.

"Does anyone want to go see a movie tonight?" asked Berry. She had been working all-day and wanted to go to the movies and see one that had looked interesting.

"Okay!" Lettuce agreed. She, like Berry, had been working all day too. Now though she wanted to just loll around and have some fun.

"We'll see you later!" the two girls called as they walked down the street to the I-Max Theater. Pudding laughed a cute little laugh before turning back around to see what Ichigo and Zakuro were doing.

"Well you guys," Ichigo began, "I don't mean to be rude but I have to go. I have a date with Masaya tonight and I really don't want to be late." Zakuro and Pudding nodded their heads in understanding.

"Where are you going this time?" Zakuro asked.

"Nowhere special, just a walk down the beach and some nice wine," Ichigo boasted, her cheeks turning a cherry-red. Pudding laughed hysterically and Zakuro just shook her head in pity.

"We'll see you later then," Pudding said hopefully.

"Of course," Ichigo said, winking. Then she headed down to the left of Café Mew Mew.

"Hey Zakuro?" Pudding asked.

"Hm?"

"Do you want to come inside the Café with me for a minute. I think I forgot my purse and it has all my money and make-up and crap like that in it." Zakuro held back a laugh and nodded her head.

"Sure thing," she said, smiling one of her million dollar smiles that could make practically any guy melt.

The two mews went back into the Café and retrieved Pudding's things from the kitchen, where se had left them.

"Okay," Pudding said happily. "Now we can leave." Zakuro nodded her head and headed for the exit when Ryou bumped into her.

"Sorry," Zakuro mummered, leaning over to pick up the papers that Ryou had dropped. As she picked them up, she couldn't help but read over a few. Her jaw dropped when she read one of the papers.

Ryou saw her reaction and knew she knew.

"Okay, okay." Ryou admitted. "I will tell you and Pudding what's been going on. But that's only because you two are the only two mews left."

"What's up Ryou?" Pudding said, concern filling her voice. Her eyes got big and wide. She looked so cute.

"There have been reports of more and more attacks by weird animals. We believe someone is causing there to be parasites again." Seeing Pudding's reaction, he added, "It's not our alien friends."

"Oh." Pudding said.

"Well, if not them, who is it that could possibly be creating parasites?" Zakuro asked, confused.

"Well, I believe that there is another mew mew. But not just any mew mew. I believe that this might just be a dark mew mew."

"Are you serious?" Pudding asked. Ryou shook his head.

"But there has never been a dark mew mew before," Zakuro protested. "How do you know that there is a dark mew mew causing all this to happen?"

"Well, whenever there are reports of attacks, there is always a young girl at the scene. People never see all of her, just her shadow. You can tell that the shadow has long hair and big wings, and a skirt. I don't know about you guys, but most guys I know do not wear skirts."

Pudding laughed while Zakuro played it cool.

"I want you guys to be on alert. I am depending on you to keep the parasites under control. Can I trust you?" Zakuro and Pudding nodded their heads. "Good. Now I can sleep a little better tonight."

"Okay. Well Zakuro and I are going to go get something to eat. You want to come, Ryou? I know that since Kiro left, there is not much to do around here.

Ryou thought for a moment before he answered.

"All right. But only for a little while. I have a lot of research to do." Pudding jumped up happily and Zakuro smiled.

"Let's go!" Pudding said.

She ran out the door and Ryou and Zakuro followed. Side by side Ryou and Zakuro walked, smiling at each other like sick puppies. When enough courage was built up, Ryou silently took Zakuro's hand. When he did it, she said nothing.

With Pudding ahead, they walked quietly hand-in-hand.

End chapter.
