Ryou gave Frost a strange look "She's a Mew also?" he asked. Rika glared at him. When they were
younger Rika despised Ryou with a passion. It was mainly Frost's "If he's staying I'm outta here"
she said before walking out of the room, slamming the door behind her. Frost sighed. The
snowflakes danced outside the window, swirling gracefully to the ground. A wave of contentment
washed over her. Everything outside the window was a still blanket of glitter white. She sighed
again. "I wish it could stay like this" she said to no one in particular before continuing "I feel a
strange kinship with the snow. It's like it's a part of me or something...kinda silly, isn't it?" she
asks turning to Ryou, not really expecting an answer. He gave her a small smile. They sat in silence
for a few moments. "So...Why did you come over?" Frost asked curiously. "You didn't show up
for work or call, the girls were worried." he said shrugging. She was silently hoping he would have
said he was worried, but that's not really his style. 'It still would have been nice to hear though'
she thought. Ryou walked over to Frost who was currently sitting on the window sill. "Is
everything ok?" He asked putting a hand on her shoulder. She jumped slightly. "Uh...yeah, just
fine" she said forcing a smile. 'She is still our princess...' kept echoing through her mind. "I know
you better than that, tell me" he demanded. What was she supposed to say? 'Hey Ryou guess what!
I'm a princess for an alien planet! But not just any planet, the same planet that you guys just
happen to be fighting!' She didn't see that going to well. "Nothing, it's nothing" she assured him.
"I don't believe you" he told her flatly. How were you supposed to tell your best friend you're his
enemy? She shook her head "It's nothing" she told him again. She turned her attention back to the
falling snow. Ryou sighed 'Why does she have to be so secluded sometimes?' he asked himself.
"Frost?" he asked the fox girl. She turned toward him "Hmm?". Ryou didn't reply. His piercing
blue eyes met hers . "Yeah?" she asked again. Ryou leaned down and kissed her, pulling her up to
him. The old emotions for him that Frost had hidden within the deepest confines of her heart
started to stir. Blushing, she kissed him back. Frost started to realize just how much she had
missed him. She broke away and buried her head in his chest. "What was that for you baka?" she
asked softly. "Hn. You have to ask?" he replied.

Hotaru, Kurai and Frost sat in a small circle in their old tree house. "Kinda small isn't it?" Kurai
asked braiding a small section of her blue bangs out of boredom. "It's good to finally have you
back in Tokyo!" Hotaru said glomping Frost. The fox girl laughed "Cant...breathe!..." she said
pretending to gasp for air. Hotaru let go of her friend and grinned "Finally! The three of us back
together!". "It is pretty cool" Kurai commented unraveling the braid. They spent the next hour
talking about random things that had happened since Frost had left. "Does Ryou have a girlfriend?"
Frost couldn't help but ask. Kurai shook her head "Do you still like him?" she asked. Frost
blushed and after making them swear to secrecy, she told them both about the kiss. "How did you
feel when he kissed you?" Hotaru asked. "I don't know, It's kinda confusing. I felt happy and upset
and sorta guilty..." Frost answered truthfully. "Why do you feel guilty?" Kurai asked smirking.
"Kish...I mean it's not like we're together or anything, but..." she stopped. "Ooooh, another guy? I
want to meet him!" Hotaru exclaimed clapping her hands ecstatically. Frost shivered "You just
might get too..." she warned them. Her instincts were telling her something was wrong. She got up
and walked over to the window. A large mutant black bird flew by the window. "Get out of here,
fast!" she told them calmly. "What is it?" both girls asked coming over to her. The tree house
lurched. She felt for the pendant in her jean pocket as she heard the cracking of wood. "Power
Pendant Activate!" she yelled kissing the silver pendant. She was consumed in light. "I feel...
weird" Hotaru said sticking her right arm out in front of her. A blue crescent moon with a star
attached to the top end of the moon glowed on her hand. She looked up at Kurai who was staring
wide-eyed at her. Hotaru had two blue antennae on her head and partially formed dragonfly wings
on her back. "Your turning into a bug!..." Kurai said still staring in disbelief, her left eye twitching.
Hotaru gasped. Black cat-like ears had taken the place of Kurai's regular ears. A red star with a
semi-circle underneath it was tattooed on her forehead, she had a black tail hanging behind her.
"And your turning into a panther!" she said in a whisper. A burst of light exploded where Frost had
been. Standing in her place was a fox-like version of herself. She turned to look at them. Another
crack was heard and the tree house started to shift. She remembered what Keiichiro had said about
the flute he had given her. 'This flute is not a weapon, it is more of a...protection device. You can
use it to teleport yourself and others. It can't transport you very far but it should come in handy '
Frost summoned her flute and started playing. A bubble surrounded the three of them and they
were transported about ten feet away from the collapsing tree house. Yuki came flying out of
nowhere and over to Frost. "Friends are mews!" she told her owner. Frost looked at the two girls
and noticed the changes. She nodded. Yuki then flew to the two girls and gave them each a pendant.
Kurai instantly grabbed the pendant and held it above her head "Power Pendant Activate!" she
yelled. Kurai was engulfed in golden light. A black panther sat at her side "Are you ready?" it
asked. "Bring it on!" was Kurai's answer. "This isn't going to be easy" it warned walking out in
front of her. "I'm not scared" she replied. The panther roared and everything became black. She
blinked and she was back where she originally was. Kurai looked down and noticed her outfit had
become a pair of blue shorts with black lining and a matching sleeveless shirt that she thought was
skimpy. "Mew Kurai at your service!" she said to Frost Hotaru enthusiastically grabbed her
pendant. "This is soooo cool! Power Pendant Activation!". She was surrounded in red and orange
flames. Hotaru held out her arm and a large dragonfly landed on her wrist. "Your so pretty!" She
exclaimed. "Thank you" a female voice said. "I hope your ready for this, there's no going back" the
dragonfly said before flying through her chest and disappearing. She blinked and was back on the
ground, all the flames gone. Hotaru looked herself over. She had large blue wings, blue antennae, a
bright red full body suit with orange lining and a diamond shape cut out from the bottom of her
neck and ending right above her breasts. "Me likie!" she said floating up a few feet and coming
back down. Frost growled a low menacing growl. "Watch your backs" she told the other two girls.
"Yuki! Get the other girls, this isn't going to be pretty. Tell them to hurry!"she commanded and
Yuki took off through the air. A girl Frost's age appeared in front of her. "If it isn't the snow
princess" she said sneering. Her black hair went down to the middle of her back. Her eyes were
translucent purple. The girl's outfit was the exact same as Frost's only pure black. It looked as if
she was fused with some type of wolf. "Who are you?" Frost asked watching her closely. "I am
Kali, queen of darkness. I see you have the light and fire princesses with you. Where are the other
ones?" she replied calling her mutant bird over to her. "Even If I did know I wouldn't tell you"
Frost retorted. Kurai and Hotaru came to stand with Frost. The three girls summoned their
weapons. Frost had her bow and arrow, Kurai had two katanas, and Hotaru had a katana also. Frost
pointed her bow at Kali "Frost Arrow!" she yelled releasing the arrow. The bird blocked the attack.
"Hotaru, can you stop that bird?" Frost asked summoning another arrow. "You got it!" Hotaru
replied. She lifted up the sword and yelled "Flame Blade!". The sword shot out four spirals of fire
hitting the bird directly. It screeched and disintegrated. Kurai ran forward towards Kali. "Darkness
Slash!" just as the blades were about to his Kali she disappeared and Kurai fell forward. Kali
reappeared behind a beaming Hotaru and elbowed her in the head. Hotaru fell to the ground. She
went to try the same trick on Frost but she jumped out of the way just in time. "Too slow!" Frost
taunted. "Bitch" Kali growled. "That's not nice!" Frost said avoiding another attack. As fast as
Kali was attacking she didn't have enough time to set her arrow to attack. "Kurai, I could use some
help" The fox-girl yelled. "Darkness Slash!" Two dark purple whips surrounded Kali's arms.
"Frost Arrow!" Frost released her arrow, it hit Kali in her right arm. The whips faded. The wolf
girl stopped and looked at her arm. She took her index finger and wiped some blood from her
wound. "Lucky shot. I'll be back, count on it. This planet will be mine" with that Kali transported
away from the battle scene. Frost went over to Hotaru and helped her up. Ichigo, the girls (minus
Pudding) and Ryou came running to the girls. "You guys needed help?" Mint asked. "We're ok
now" Frost said powering down. "Who are they?" Zakuro asked pointing to the two new girls.
"Kurai and Hotaru, two of the newest mews. You guys still need to meet Rika" Forst said putting
the pendant back in her pocket. "There's another girl along with these two?" Ichigo asked. Frost
nodded. All the other girls sweat dropped.

---------With Pudding-----------
Pudding put her younger siblings to bed before going to sit on the front steps. "Pudding wonders
where her Taru-Taru is, na no da" The stars shown brightly in the clear, navy blue sky. Pudding
looked down the street at all the houses decorated for Christmas. "Mabey Taru-Taru will help
Pudding decorate her house, na no da?" she questioned out loud. "Stop calling me Taru-Taru!"
Pudding heard the voice of the young alien boy. "Where are you Taru, na no da?" she asked
looking around. He appeared in front of her. "Miss me?" She jumped up and hugged him happily.
"H.. Hey...let go!" he said looking embarrassed. "Pudding is sorry Taru-Taru! Pudding missed you,
na no da!" she told him letting go. "Why is Taru-Taru at Pudding's house, na no da?" she asked.
"Uh...I was board" he said matter-of-factly. "Does Taru want to help Pudding decorate her house
with pretty lights and things? Taru can fly, flying will be a big help na no da!". He shrugged "Ok,
why not?".

All the girls sat on the floor in Frost's room. "This sleep over is going to be cool!" Ichigo
exclaimed. "Thank you for inviting us over Frost-chan" Lettuce said politely. "No biggie" the fox
girl told them. "It's Dance Dance Revolution time!" Rika said jumping up. "I wanna go first!"
Ichigo said raising her hand. "Ok, me against Ichigo." Frost said hooking the game up to her tv.
"How about Candy?" Frost asked the cat girl. She nodded. "That's her best song..." Rika warned
Ichigo. She shrugged "Bring it on!". Frost ended up winning. "Told you" Rika teased. Later, after
all the girls (minus Frost) had gone to sleep, she got dressed and went into the backyard. "Kish!
Hey Kish!" she yelled trying to summon him. Seconds later he appeared in front of her. "Hiyas
Kitten" He leaned in for a kiss. She put a finger to his lips. "Kish I want you to take me to your
planet. I need to be back before dawn."
So... Frost requests to see her home planet, what will she find? The next chapter might take a few
days to get out. Right now I'm grounded for bad grades - -; I was hoping for five reviews before I
