Oh my GOD I haven't updated in over a month! WAY over a month! How long has it been?

Important Author's Note: I'm thinking of dropping this fic. I have absolutely no idea where it's going, and I have no ideas…I'm just writing whatever pops into my head. Please tell me in a review if you want me to continue! If I get 5 reviews saying I should then I will.

Anyway…review replies!

Mew-Sahara: Definitely. But I like it. And so do a lot of other people I think

IloveDren: Yay! 10/10! Glad you like it! I'll keep writing, don't worry. Nice name.

Clover of Damnation: Thanks. I had to recommend your stories. They're awesome. I'm glad you were happy, I like doing that.

Tokyomewmewgal: Of course Kish saves Ichigo. Kish is awesome. And yes, Masaya should die…a lot of people agree on that I never thought of that…I'll do something in the next chapter.

Applecake: I love the pairings too. Especially Taruto x Pudding and Kish x Ichigo. Seems like you love T x P more than I do though… :P

Fareeha: You FINALLY reviewed, it's about time! I know I need to name the chapters, I'm just too lazy :P Thanks for the review!

I still need an editor…anyone interested? At all?

Disclaimer: Sighs I do not, and never will, own Tokyo Mew Mew. Sob

Last Time

Ichigo got her purse and hurried out the door. Unconsciously she went toward the shortcut through the alley she had been avoiding since she turned into a cat.

"Well, look what we have here! A pretty little girl with a purse!" A man stepped out of the shadows. He was shabbily dressed, but looked strong and tough. He had seen a lot.

More men started coming out of the shadows. There were five of them, dressed the same as the first.

"Leave me alone!" Ichigo shouted, looking afraid. She was strong, but not enough to take on these six, unless she transformed which she obviously couldn't do.

One of the men came charging at her, knocking her down hard. He stood triumphantly over her-and then fell with a gasping noise.

"Leave her alone!" A voice yelled. 'Kish!' Ichigo thought. He teleported behind another man and knocked him down with the hilt of one of his Dragon Swords. He then teleported to Ichigo, scooping her up in his arms bridal-style. Ichigo whispered, "Kish?" before he teleported away and everything went black.

Now

At The Café

"What happened?" Lettuce, Mint, Pudding, Zakuro and even Pai were clustered around the bed that Ichigo was laying on, still unconscious. Kish had fallen asleep on a chair in the corner, and Tart still hadn't arrived.

Lettuce walked over to Kish and gently shook his shoulder. He woke with a start.

"What happened?" Lettuce asked softly.

"Mugged," was the only reply before he went back to sleep. Lettuce sighed and went back over to Ichigo.

Suddenly, Tart teleported in. "TAR-TAR!" Pudding yelled and promptly glomped him. "GET OFF ME!" he yelled, before taking in the scene. "What happened to the hag?" (Kish muttered, barely conscious, "She's NOT a hag.")

"She seems to have been mugged, from the one word that Kish has said," replied Ryou. "But she didn't have many injuries, so I'm guessing that she fainted while Kish teleported."

Pai moved away from the wall. "That seems to happen frequently with humans." He then went on to explain, but by then nobody was listening except Lettuce who watched him raptly.

Ichigo stirred. "I think she's waking up…" said Mint, who had been watching Ichigo. Suddenly Ichigo sat up, clearly bewildered. "Kish?" she asked, loudly, and then blushed. Kish jumped up at the sound of his name, then hurried to the bed. "Kitten! You're awake!" Clearly satisfied that she was all right, he hugged her. Tightly.

"Kish…not breathing…"

Meanwhile, Lettuce and Pai had been talking about random things. Like math. And science. (A/N How could people possibly enjoy talking about stuff like that? Anyway…) Pai was enjoying himself more than he had in a long time, though he would never admit it. He was doing most of the talking, after all…nobody had wanted to listen to him about anything in a long, long time. Lettuce was just happy to hear Pai talk, and blushed when she thought of that. Kish and Tart, the only people Pai was exposed to for a long time, never wanted to talk about anything like that. Kish was happy to talk about Ichigo and Tart was only interested in talking about Pudding and then vehemently denying he was talking about her. This was different…he was talking to a person who was genuinely interested in what he had to say, someone who he was actually interested in listening to.

Movement to the side caught his eye. Ichigo had sat up and yelled out Kish's name, and was now a fiery red colour. As he watched, Kish jumped up and ran to wrap his arms around his 'Kitten', who was soon turning purplish-red.

Abruptly, Ichigo's cellphone started ringing. Managing to get out from underneath Kish, she pulled her purse-which was still with her, thanks to Kish-out from under the bed, and took out her phone. "Hel-"

"ICHIGO WHERE ARE YOU WHAT HAPPENED WE PHONED ABOUT 50 TIMES WHAT HAPPENED!" her mom screamed from the other end.

"Mom-"
"Don't try and talk young woman I know you were in a hurry to get to work but you could have at least told us where you were going!"
"Mom I'm fine! Don't worry! Anyway, I have to go. See you later." She hung up on her mom…Ichigo felt it was better not to mention the incident in the alley.

She looked around and noticed that some of the Mews, Kish, Ryou and Tart where trying, and failing, to hold in laughter. Ichigo turned a light pink. "What?"

Kish, between convulsions of laughter, said, "Does she…always do …that? I think everyone…in this room heard…exactly what she was… saying to you…"
Masha suddenly flew out of Ichigo's backpack. "Ichigo! Chimera Anima! Chimera Anima!"
The Mews looked at eachother in confusion. "But the aliens who were sent to destroy Earth are right here…" Lettuce said, stating the completely obvious.

The colour suddenly drained from Pai's already pale face. "That means one of two things…either Deep Blue has recruited more of our people to attack the Earth, or… he might be coming himself."

MUAHAHA! MINI-CLIFFIE! YAY!..I'll try to have the next chapter up a LOT sooner than this one, but I don't prewrite my chapters like lotsa other people do, and that makes me pathetic. . Sorry!

And I am still looking for an editor!

Wow. I just looked at the stats on this story…there's 25 reviews and 922 hits. 25 reviewed, 897 didn't. Now I am sad…please review! .-.
