This chapter took me long than usual because I've been wondering how exactly to describe her transformation other than the obvious blinding light. Sorry about all of those spelling mistakes in the last chapter which I tried to fix as soon as possible. Please leave comments! Byeee :3

Chapter three: Me and my tail

Misaki was encased in a stunning bright light, blinding everyone around her. The sparkles hovered over her torso and stuck to her like glue. This happened all over her body. More and more bright light was sticking to her and sparkles vibrated all over her body. They slowly drifted away form her body and created two cat ear shapes. They spun round and round, creating swirls of sparkles every where it went. Eventually, they landed on the top of Misaki's head. The sparkles gathered at the tips of her hair and spread out and downward to elongate it.

Some sort of fabric had gathered around her body and was stretching and tearing all around her, creating shapes of the most wonderful colour she had ever seen. The fabric clung to her body and the sparkles then moved onto her feet. They danced around them until they too clung to her lower legs. Two long cream boots appeared just as the sparkles evaporated.

It wasn't so much as a tiny twang of pain that had made a tail sprout from her bum. It was all over in a matter of seconds, yet to her it felt more like minutes. She was relived when the glowing stopped and she could finally see again, even if her eyes were still fuzzy from crying.

Misaki stepped out of the glowering light. Ryou's eyes glittered when he saw her in her mew form. "She looks just like 'her' " he muttered under his breath.

Who's 'her', Misaki wondered for a moment before realising what had just happened.

She looked over herself and blushed. She was wearing, well…hardly anything. A cream love heart shaped tube covered her chest and soft ruby fur edged the top of her boob tube. Red fur also covered a band about an inch down from her boob tube and her belly button was clearly on show. Her shoulder had some kind of arm garnet, which was puffy and cream and was also rimmed with ruby fluff.

She wore Cream puffy mini short with red fur lining the top of them and knee high cream boots with ruby encrusted laces and red lining.

Covering her left hand were fingerless gloves rimmed with a white bow and jagged edges, her right hand consisted of the same gloves but was a deep red. Each glove had a triangle cut out on the left side of each hand, one cut out had her mew mark clearly engraved into it.

Her hair was elongated to reach to her hips and was a redder colour than usual.

"What happened to me!" Misaki was panicking and a look of shock swept over her. She gave herself the once over, her hands reaching for her ears and tail. For almost the fith time today her eyes welled up with slippery tears. She couldn't help herself. If she had any weakness it would be her cowardliness. "What has happened to me! I'm a…a…I'm a cat! That pendant turned me into a freak!" She shriek loudly and pointed a nasty finger at the shimmering pendant around her neck on a cream chocker.

Ryou laughed and turned to meet her gaze.

"What's with that weird smile!"

"You remind me of someone, that's all…" His thoughts wondered back to when he first infused the mews. They had saved the world from the evil clutches of the cyniclones only ten years ago. Ichigo, lettuce, Mint, Zakuro and Pudding. Pudding was the only one still in Tokyo but she wasn't much use to Ryou and Keiichero anymore since they had all lost their powers five years ago.

When he looked at Misaki he thought of Ichigo. He didn't know how or why but she resembled her in some ways. Maybe because they were both infused with a type of cat or because they both had similar red hair. All Ryou could hope for was that Misaki was a brilliant team leader as Ichigo was.

"Now get down there and fight that monster!" he ordered.

"wait, wait, wait… I've got to fight that monster?" Her heart was beating like a water pump. She couldn't fight that! Not unless she had some sort of super human powers as well as her super human ears.

Before she knew it she was falling through the air having just been pushed by Ryou. Her cat instincts kicked in and her legs bent backwards, leaving enough space for her feet to land gracefully between a fallen tree trunk and the monsters feet. Her ears pricked up and she did a treble back flip and landed on the opposite side of the repulsive beast. Her eyes glazed over and she repeated after her thoughts,

"How dare you attack innocent people you slim ball! You will pay for your doings beast!" "Mew Mew style, Mew Mew grace, Mew Mew power in your face ~ Nya!"

What has happened to her. She felt all wriggly inside. She wasn't in control of her speech anymore and that unsettled her. Not having control was something she hated more than anything. What made it worse was that she had meowed without knowing how she did it.

The monster stomped toward her. Misaki stepped back but the monster kept coming and coming,

"Nice little Ratty" She shouted. It's response was terrifying. The demon rats shriek shook the ground like an earthquake. Misaki shivered " Okay…maybe not little." She said, quivering "Nice disgustingly big mouse" She looked up at Ryou who was obviously enjoying her moment of peril.

"Ryou! It should be the other way round! The cat is meant to eat the mouse, right?" She shouted "I'm not meant to be eaten for breakfast by a giant demon rat!"

Ryou finally stopped laughing at whatever it was amusing him, "Say the first thing that comes to mind" She stared at him desperately, what was that supposed to mean?

"Something like…peaches?" He burst into another sudden laughing moment when she knew that he was obviously not going to be much help. She yelled at the top of her voice " Peaches!" Ryou now had tears streaming down his face, he couldn't stop laughing. Nothing happened. She knew screaming 'peaches!' at the monster wasn't going to do anything but what did she have to lose? Only her life. Her eyes welled over again "No, I wont cry anymore" she said determinedly. She shut her eyes and said of the first thing that came to mind, just as Ryou had told her.

"Caramel Wand!" A sudden burst of light sprung form her left hand. It moulded and shaped itself it a stick shape. Sparkles flew form no where and created gems and crystal beads all around the wand. Spirals and swirls appeared on the tips of the wand where a big red gem lay glowing brilliantly. To finish it off a cream bow and angel wings appeared below the ruby gem. It was beautiful and it glimmered silently. Misaki was unfazed by the enormity of the power radiating from the wand she was more interested in how beautiful it was. Say the first thing that comes into your mind she thought. She span her wand around her in circles, creating a blur of sparkles everywhere it flew.

"Ribbon…Caramel heart" She drew the wand to her chest and painted a love heart picture full of sprinkles of glitter, "Flash!" She pointed the wand at the monster and rainbow tinted bubbles flew out of her wand and splashed onto the monster, creating an explosion of glitter. It shrieked, quieter than before yet it still shook the ground. It evaporated into a pile of dust. She walked over to it and noticed a slight glimmer in the grey sands. She delved for it wondering what it could be. Her hand touched something soft as velvet. She clutched it tightly and opened the palm of her hand; a pearl lay still in her hand. It had a light touch of purple to it. She decided to keep it to herself. She was surprised to find that her mew outfit had a hidden pocket on the side of her shorts and carefully placed it in there.

Ryou jumped down from the stump he had sat on to watch the 'show' and walked over to her.

"Good job…"He said without even a glance towards her" welcome to the team!"

She looked at him for a second

"Hey, mister I have so many questions to ask you!" She sneered at him "What do you mean by 'team' there's only you isn't there? Two, why did I turn into a cat! Three, how do I turn back to my normal self-" He sighed dramatically and put a hand on Misaki's shoulder. She blushed and murmured the rest of her last question.

"Come with me and I'll tell you everything you need to know" A bight light surrounded them and they were no where to be seen. Any passer Byers must of thought they teleported or were seeing things, because they just disappeared into, what looked like, thin air…

I know, I know, another cliff hanger but I cant help myself it just to tempting. Review please, have a nice day, I look forward to seeing ya'll in the next chapter! :3 review!
