Sorry for not updating for so long. I had writer's block! Sorry!

Disclaimer: I don't own Tokyo Mew Mew. If I did, there would be more KishXIchigo scenes and no Masaya.

Claimer: I own Sakura, Yumi, Fala, yadda yadda yadda. I had a few instances where people stole my characters. You'd have to have my permission to use them.

Sakura's POV

"Ryou told us to meet here, so where is he?" I asked Yumi. Both of us were the only ones in the abandoned Café Mew Mew. Yumi was wandering and exploring the place. "Be patient Sakura." She picked up a stray magazine on the floor. I sat down patiently. 5 minutes later I was up again pacing around. "When is Ryou going to be heeeeeeeeeeeeere?" "Hush." She snapped. I sat down on the chair again. "That's easy for you to say. Only you would be interested in a cooking magazine." Suddenly the door to the café burst open. Inside rushed Ginger. "Is Ryou-papa-san here yet?" She said. I sighed. "No. Shouldn't you know where he is because you're his daughter?" Ginger panted heavily. "Retasu-mama-san drove me here, said it was important. I figured it would be about Ryou-papa-san." Yumi looked up from her magazine. "Well, do you know anything that she might classify as important?" Ginger looked thoughtful. "Well……" I changed the subject. "If Ginger, Yumi, and I are here then shouldn't Umeko and Fala be here too?" Yumi set down the magazine, meaning she was finished. "Most likely, but we should be patient." I scowled. "It's 5 minutes after the time Ryou told us to meet here." Then as if on cue the kitchen door opened. In stepped a familiar purple hair disabled alien. "Umeko-chan!" I exclaimed. She glared at me. "What?" I sat back down. "Now we just have to wait for Fala-chan." Umeko looked around the café. "Why does he keep on calling us here in this dump?" Yumi shrugged. "In the days of the original Mews this was their home base." I stared at a dead cockroach. "So why isn't it used now?" "It is being used right now Sakura. Don't you realize it?" I realized what she meant. "Ah…." Umeko suddenly became alert. "Did you hear that?" I shook my head. "No." Yumi tried to listen for whatever sound Umeko heard. "I hear nothing." She announced. Then there was a faint groan coming from the back room. "Chimera animal?" Ginger suggested? That could be a possibility. "I'm not taking any chances." Umeko said. "MEW MEW UMEKO METAMORPHISIS!" She transformed and went off towards the noise. Yumi and I looked at each other. "Might as well help." I said. Ginger joined in our transformation.

"MEW MEW MINT!"

"MEW MEW GINGER!"

"MEW MEW SAKURA!"

"METAMORPHISIS!"

We all rushed to the back room where Umeko was already. "Did anything happen?" Yumi asked. Umeko shook her head. "Nothing except strange noises." I pressed my neko-ears to the door. I heard strange noises like what Umeko said. "Do Chimera animals speak their own languages?" I asked. Ginger walked over and tried to listen in as well. "No. I've been working with Chimera animals for years and the noise they make is not a language." Ginger summoned her Ginger castanets. "If they are Chimera animals then we attack them right?" Yumi muttered something. I got my Cherry bell out. "Let's do it!"

"RIBBON UMEKO LASH!"

"RIBBON GINGER STREAMS!"

"RIBBON MINT GUST!"

"RIBBON CHERRY FLASH!"

All of our attacks sort of combined together and slammed into the door. There was a brilliant display of lights and colors, but I didn't see any Chimera parasites floating around. Just a lot of dust and a roomful of empty boxes. What I did hear was a voice that sounds familiar. Out of the boxes came a monkey tail. "Fala-san?" Ginger said. She rushed over and pulled the tail out of the rubble. Indeed it was Fala. "Why did you attack me na no da?" She rubbed her bruised arm. I stared at Umeko. She returned with a glare. "We thought the sound was a Chimera animal." Yumi said. Ginger poked Fala's tail. "That proves Ryou-papa-san's theory." The tail disappeared. I looked at Ginger curiously. "What theory, no da?" Fala jumped up. "What's a theory na no da?" Ginger sighed. "A theory is a prediction someone makes about something that is currently unproven. Ryou-papa-san's theory is that if…… um……." She muttered the rest very quickly. None of us got have gotten what she said. "Can you repeat that Ginger?" I asked. Ginger blushed. "Never mind." She whispered.

Something rustled under the boxes. Ginger jumped away looking scared. "Is it a Chimera animal?" I felt unprotected now since we have all untransformed a while ago. Fala shook her head and stood up. "It's Kappuke-kun, na no da!" Something burst out of the boxes and cover her mouth. "Don't" he stopped talking. Everyone was staring at him. "Why is the little nuisance here? Better yet why did you cover Fala's mouth?" Umeko asked. Fala managed to push his arm off. "He's Kappuke-K" the alien covered her mouth again. "I told you not to say" "Can someone explain what's going on?" Yumi said impatiently. I looked around. "I'm not sure what's going on either." Umeko sighed. "He's the same alien that we caught the other day." He stared at her. Then at all of us. "I should have known." He uncovered Fala's mouth without knowing it. She jumped at the opportunity to speak. "HIS NAME IS KAPPUKE-KUN NA NO DA!" He jabbed Fala in the nose. "Shut up!" Ginger rushed over to Fala. "Fala! Are you alright? Is your nose alright?" Fala sat up. "My nose ish bleeding na no dash." Ginger glared at Kappuke-kun. He backed up. "I didn't mean it." Yumi rolled her eyes. "Sure you didn't." I got a tissue from my pocket and rolled it up in a tube. Then I handed it to Fala. "Arigatou na no dash." She stuck it in her nose.

I heard a car pull up near Café Mew Mew. Umeko's ears pricked up. "Who would that be?" She asked. I ran out of the storage room. "It would be Ryou of course!" Everyone else but Ginger, Fala, and Kappuke-kun followed me to meet him.

Inside the main big room Ryou was there with a man with a long ponytail. He looked at us tentatively. "I see only 3 Mews. Where's the other two?" Yumi pointed behind her. "In there. But you shouldn't go in there right now." He raised an eyebrow. "Why not?" "Because Kap" I started to say only to be cut off by some yelling. I couldn't hear what Kappuke-kun, Ginger, or Fala was saying but it sounded like they were having a fight. "Keiichiro, you talk to the remaining Mews about what's going on and I'll see what the other two are doing." The other man (apparently Keiichiro.) nodded. "You be careful." He told Ryou as he entered the storage room. Then he turned to us. "So you're the girls Ryou told me about." I nodded. Keiichiro walked over to me. "It's an honor to meet a girl who had done so much." He kissed my hand. Yumi and Umeko stared. I gently pushed him away. "I'm sorry…. But who are you?" He stepped back. "I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Keiichiro Aksaka." No one said anything. "In the past I helped Ryou with the Mew Project." Still there was silence. Finally Yumi spoke up. "Mother told me about you. You moved away to America didn't you? What brought you back?" He looked at Yumi. "You must me Minto's daughter. A pleasure to meet you." She blushed and stepped back a little. "Ryou brought me back. He said that he needs some help reviving Café Mew Mew." He answered. Reviving? Does that mean………

"How can you revive the café if this whole thing is a mess? I mean, look! Dust and cobwebs everywhere! And" I stopped. Ryou wouldn't bring back Café Mew Mew if it was hopeless. He's not that type of person. And why was I blurting everything out loud? "Don't worry. Everyone will be cleaning it up together. Sooner or later the café will be back to its former glory." I nodded. "Wait, did you say everyone?" Yumi poked me. "Weren't you paying attention?" "That what I said." Keiichiro replied. "Maybe you convince your mothers to help us." Umeko doesn't have a mother. Zakuro left her. I looked at her face. She hadn't said a word since we meet Keiichiro. But her face didn't look troubled. "We'll be cleaning up this weekend, if that's alright with all of you." I shook my head. "Actually, mum and I are going on vacation for a week starting on Friday." The door to the storage room burst open. Ryou was dragging Ginger and Fala. Kappuke-kun was following behind him sulking. "What were you doing Ryou?" he asked him. Ryou let go of the two other Mews. "They were fighting. Apparently the little midget here wanted to go back home but Fala forced him to stay. The rest is self-explanatory." I heard Kappuke-kun mutter "I'm not a midget." Ryou sighed. "It's almost dinnertime. I'll explain everything these two. Keiichiro, you can take Yumi home." Keiichiro stood up. "We'll discuss more 2 weeks from now. Sakura has a vacation on Friday for a week." Everyone looked at me. "Is it the annual visiting-your-crazy-grandparents-vacation?" Yumi asked. "Yes. And my grandparents aren't that crazy." "Enough talk." Ryou said. "Everyone can go home now. It's going to get dark."

Wow, I have not updated for a month. I'M SO SORRY!
