Strange Love
Chapter 3 : Snow day disaster
Frost's POV
"Cuz! Wake up!" Rika yells running into my room. She scared me half to death. I yelped, fell off
my bed and landed with a thud. "What?" My growl was muffled due to the fact that my face was
still planted in the carpet. "The two best words in the English dictionary, that's what!" I sat up
"Snow day?" I asked getting excited. "You guessed it!" She yelled jumping up and down, I
joined her. "Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!" We were doing the whole jump-up-and-down-screeching
like obsessed fan girls thing. "Ladies, with all that screaming you'd wake the dead!" The maid,
Lizzy, said with a laugh. Rika and I stopped screeching and started laughing. "I would suppose
you two will be spending the day outside?" Lizzy asked. I walked over to the window and
examined the garden. It looked like there was at least three feet of snow. "You bet we'll be out
side!" I answered. "What you like for breakfast?" She asked picking up my laundry basket. I
looked at Rika, she shook her head indicating she didn't want anything. "Nothing, thank you" I
replied. She nodded and left the room. "Meet you in the foyer in about five minutes" she said
rushing out the door. I quickly changed into a pair of blue jeans, a band t-shirt, a blue fuzzy
sweater, my matching scarf and gloves and a pair of black hiking boots. By the time I made it to
the foyer Rika was already there waiting "What took ya?" she asked sneering. Her outfitwould
have been identical to mine except her sweater was rusty red. Her red-brown hair up in a high
ponytail with glittery pieces of ribbon in it. "Shut it!" I said flipping my hair over my shoulder. I
pushed past her and ran into the garden. The swirling snowflakes were dancing in the sunlight as
they fell silently to the ground. I soon found out the snow was waist deep. 'What a snow storm' I
thought to my self. I feel backwards into the soft, white blanket covering the ground and started
to make a snow angel.
"I hope you never lose your sense of wonder,
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger,
May you never take one single breath for granted,
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed,
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
I hope you dance...I hope you dance."
I started to sing waiting for Rika to catch on. This was a song our mothers used to sing to us.
Now we sing it to remind us of them. I also still sing a lullaby my mom would sing to me when I
was little called "Promise", not that I would admit that to anyone. Rika flopped down beside me
in the snow and started to sing with me.
"Hope you never fear those mountains in the distance,
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Livin' might mean takin' chances but they're worth takin',
Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin',
Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter,
When you come close to sellin' out reconsider,
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance."
We both burst out laughing. It was the first time we had sung that in a long time. It was still
kinda dark outside, the stars were still slightly visible. The small blue fuzz ball in my pocket,
whom I named Yuki, started beeping. "Aliens Frost! New Mew Mew !" she said flying out of
my pocket. Rika stared at her wide-eyed. "W...what is that...thing?". Before I could answer, the
ground started shaking. 'Oh no' I thought. Rika was going to see my mew form. A large, white
mutant rabbit came bounding into the yard. I bit my bottom lip debating whether I fight and
show Rika my mew mew form or take the risk on getting us both killed. I went with the first. I
pulled the pendant out of my pocket. "Mew Frost Unimorphosis!" I felt myself changing but
when the lights and music faded I didn't look the way I did the first time I transformed. My shirt
was an ice blue, sleeveless midriff . Right above my bellybutton the ends of my shirt came into
wavy points. My bottoms to the outfit were the same color, tight fitting shorts. I had a clear belt
with a snowflake for the buckle. Attached to my belt were two pieces of see-through, sparkly
fabric that came down into points about where my knees were, they went around to the back of
my belt and attached there too. Close to the tip of my tail was a matching bow with another
snowflake in the center where the knot was. I still had my choker with my pendant around my
neck. I had a white, glittery band around the top of my right arm and another band around my
right leg. I had arm warmers that went up to right above my elbows and leg warmers that went to
right above my knees. The arm and leg warmers were made of soft, white fur. My boots were
like Zoey's only black, not that you could see them under the leg warmers. The most amazing
thing was the clear, glittery, see-through wings. Rika gasped. Three more rabbit creatures
appeared out of nowhere. Yet again I bit down on my bottom lip "Rika! Get out of here! Run!" I
yelled. She didn't move, she sat there and whimpered. The first rabbit ran toward Rika and
whipped it's paw out. "No! Rika!" I ran forward and noticed my speed had tripled. Even though
I had the speed boost I still didn't get there in time, I saw her fly backwards a few feet and land
in the snow. I waited to see if she would move, she didn't. I went into panic mode major and
started crying, completely for getting about the rabbits. I felt a blow to my head "Rika..."I
whispered before blacking out.
Normal POV
Frost lay unconscious in the snow. Yuki flew over to Rika "New Mew!" she chirped and a
golden pendant fell out of her mouth and floated above Rika. She slowly sat up, dizziness
rushing over her.
Rika's POV
When my head stopped spinning I noticed I wasn't laying in my yard anymore. Everything was
red glitter . This strange looking wolf-like animal sat in front of me. I think I was imagining it
but, I'm sure it smiled at me. "What are you?" I asked. "I am an Ethiopian Wolf, as are you." the
wolf, whom I assume is a female from her voice, told me. "What do you mean 'as are you'?" I
said reaching out to stroke her fur. "You will learn in time young wolf cub" she told me softly.
With that she jumped into me! "Say 'Unimorphosis'" she commanded. I did as I was told "Mew
Sapphirine Unimorphosis!" I heard soft music in the background, the song we were just singing,
I Hope You Dance from LeeAnn Womack., that calmed me down some. I felt everything
changing, it was both scary and exciting at the same time. The lights and music faded and I was
left standing in the snow. I looked down, my outfit was like that of my cousins only red-brown
and black instead of blue and white. A small area in the sky made a warping motion and a small
dude with pointed ears appeared. "Who are you?" He asked, I shoved it back in his face "I could
ask you the same thing". "Don't talk to me like that!" he yelled. "I'm not afraid of some pint-
sized pipsqueak" I retorted. "That's it! Attack!" he commanded to the animals. Two ran toward
me, the others to my unconscious cousin. 'What do I do?' I thought starting to panic. 'Call upon
the Sapphire Flute and play' my wolf friend told me. "Mew Sapphire Flute" I held out my right
hand and a golden flute appeared. The flute was the size of a regular one, it was gold, and had a
thin leather string tied on near the end with what looked like hawk feathers hanging from the end
of the string. I put the beautiful flute up to my mouth and started to play. The animals stopped in
there tracks and their pattern started to deplete. I looked to where Frost lay. A green blur swept
over her and she was gone. I got scared again. I played a final high-pitched note and the animals
completely disappeared. "How dare you! You ruined my creations!" the tiny dude yelled then
left through a warp in the sky. I felt myself changing again and when the music and lighted
faded I was back to my normal self with a pendant in my hand. I fell forward onto my knees.
That took a lot out of me. I felt a hand on my shoulder and I looked up. Another guy with pointy
ears was standing behind me. My eyes got wide and my only thoughts were 'I'm gonna die!'. As
if he read my mind he shook his head "Calm down, I wont hurt you." he said in an annoyed tone.
"Who are you and what do you want?" I asked pushing myself onto my feet. I stood awkwardly
for a moment before my knees gave out again. "Dizzy?" he asked amused. My head was
spinning and everything was going black. Blacking out was nothing like fainting, you knew it
was coming, being consumed by darkness. It sucked. With my last few seconds of consciousness
I asked again "Who are you?". "Don't worry...I'm a friend" he told me softly. He started to say
something else but everything went black.
Normal POV
"What do I do with her?" Kish asks aloud looking at the girl he heard Frost call "Rika". He
sighed and picked her up. 'I cant leave her here...' he though and transported himself and Rika
into Frost's room. He set the redhead down on the futon in the right corner of the room. He
looked at Frost lying on her bed. She was still asleep, the gashes on head almost completely
gone. She hadn't changed out of her mew form like Rika had. He went to the bathroom
connecting the two girls' rooms. After searching through most of the drawers he found a blue
washrag and wet it down with cool water. He first walked to Rika. After finding she had no
visible cuts he went on to Frost. He gently washed away dried blood from her face and shoulder.
The cut on her shoulder was deep and had just started to heal. It was strange, the other mews
couldn't heal themselfs but she could. She grunted in her sleep. He wasn't going to leave her, not
in this condition anyways. He looked around the room and spotted a bright blue book laying on
the desk. His curiosity got the better of him and he went over to examine it. He opened to the
first page and started to read.
'Dear Diary,
It's me Frost, big surprise right? Well, I'm sitting in study hall writing about how I was a
normal 16 year old girl...'
He read down a paragraph or sobefore he found something that amused him.
' I whirled around, he caught me in a kiss and pulled me closer to him. I hate to admit it
but I just about melted. After a good three minutes I realized what was happening and pulled
away from the kiss, still in his arms. Did I mention his arms were wrapped tightly around my
waist? Well they were. I shoved him away. He had a silly grin plastered across his cute face. I
think it was safe to say he enjoyed that about as much as I did.'
Kish smirked to himself. 'So she did like it.' He looked at the clock on the wall. It read 12:45
p.m. He had been reading longer than he thought. Frost mumbled something in her sleep. He
quickly shut the book. He remembered Pai had explained that teenage girls kept books called
"diaries" to keep their deepest-darkest secrets in and became enraged when another person,
especially a boy, read them. Kish didn't want to become road kill. After realizing she wasn't
awake he opened one of the drawers and found tons of things. A picture of Frost and Rika, they
looked a year or two younger, pieces of ribbon, a blue tinted flute and another blue book. Kish
grinned. He carefully picked up the book and opened to the first page. It was dated back to three
years ago.

Dear Diary,
I write this entry as I sit on the plane to Akita, Japan. Everything is going wrong! Wrong! Wrong! WRONG!
Flashback to a week ago
"Ryou, where are you taking me?" I asked wrapping my arms tighter around his neck. "Calm down Zee, I wont drop you" he
said with a chuckle. Earlier that day Elliott said he had a surprise for me and to meet him after school. We met behind the
playground. "You'll love it!" he said happily. "When do I get to see this surprise?" I asked. He looked around to make sure no
one was around and leaned in towards me. I think he was going to kiss me. I started to lean in towards him...
