The Hartman Chronicles Season 2 Chapter 3
I then began to walk back to the café. There was so much to think about now. Who could the other Mew Mews be? Who is Nightwolf? Is Ocean Depths behind this? And if we squeeze olives to get olive oil, how do we obtain baby oil?
I shook my head and sighed "So many things to think about and so little time to do it"
I soon closed in on the café, and as I opened the doors I saw Ryou on the phone.
"Really, she's here already? That's great! What school is she attending?" Ryou paused "That's the same school on of the other Mew Mews go to. Maybe she'll meet them sooner than we first thought…She also the star of the javelin team?"
Ryou chuckled
"I should have known. Well I look forward to seeing her! Alright, bye"
Ryou then hung up the phone.
"Who was that?" I asked
"An old family friend" Ryou said "Where is Lisa?"
"She went home" I said
"Ah" Ryou said "If you excuse me I'm going to head to bed"
Ryou then headed upstairs and I stayed downstairs for a bit. I looked at the full moon.
"Beautiful" I smiled, I then heard two wolf howls "And yet creepy at the same time"
I then decided that it was time to get to bed too. I headed upstairs and got in bed. The next thing I knew I was fast asleep. My dream was weird though. I on a beach in the Astral Plane. I soon found a small cove and went inside.
"Adrian!" A familiar voice exclaimed. Umi's head then shot from the water in the cove "Hey Adrian! How are you?"
"I'm good" I said "You?"
"I'm great" Umi paused "Sorry I havn't been in our realm for a while. I've been training to use my second technique"
"Really?" I asked "What is it?"
"Ribbon Shark Riptide" Umi said "It's going to be great once I get it down"
"It only took me about a day in a half here to get my Siberian Cannon down"
"I know but this place is so great!" Umi smiled "I'm actually living my life long dream!"
"And that is?" I asked
"To swim in the ocean and see tons of fish!" Umi giggled
"We need you Umi, try and get back soon" I said
Umi nodded "I'll try"
"Speaking of members, there have been a few new Mew Mews" I said
"Cool" Umi said "If you excuse me though I need to get back to my training"
"Alright" I said
Umi then went back underwater and I woke up.
"Good to see Umi's okay" I said as I got out of bed. I then got dressed and headed downstairs. Kyoto and Lisa were down stairs. Lisa was in a light blue French-maid outfit, it also had a dark blue apron. The whole outfit had a gold trim.
"It looks great!" Kyoto squealed
"Thanks" Lisa said, quietly "Now please stop inspecting it"
"I can't help it" Kyoto said as she looked up and down the outfit
Lisa sighed
"Well I see you two are getting to know each other" I smiled
"Yes" Lisa said with her southern twang "A little too well"
"Oh come on" Kyoto giggled "It's great to meet new people"
Lisa rolled her eyes. All of a sudden, Ryou's voice yelled "The café open in a few minutes!"
Lisa then looked at us "Adrian, get cooking, Kyoto you get the cash register"
"And what are you going to do princess?" I scoffed
"I will be taking orders and serving people, thank you very much!"
Lisa snapped
"Yeah whatever" I said as I started for the kitchen. Before I could get there though, the café doors opened. There Momo and Lavender stood.
"Hey Adrian" Momo said as she walked over to me, she then gave me a kiss on the cheek, I blushed and kissed her back "Can I ask you something?"
"Sure" I said
"Do you want to come to my school's track meet?" Momo said "Lavender is coming too"
I smiled "Sure! I'd love to come!"
"We're coming too!" Kyoto chimed in as she looked at Lisa
"Yeah" Lisa said "Now will you all get to work!"
I laughed "Yes princess"
I then headed into the kitchen and began to make treats. After a few hours we soon came to the part of the afternoon where we had an hour off. I walked out onto the café and saw that the girls were ready to go.
"You ready?" I smiled
"I am" Momo said "And so are the others"
"Well then" I said "Let's go"
Momo nodded and motioned for the other girls to follow. We were soon out the door.
"I wonder how Umi and Aki are doing" Lavender said
"Funny you should mention that" I said "I just saw Umi in a dream last night. She's doing fine but she's taking forever to learn her new technique in the Astral Plane"
"The Astral Plane?" Momo asked
"Yeah remember when I was knocked out for a good month or two" I said
Momo nodded "I remember that"
"Yeah I was on the Astral Plane learning my Siberian Cannon technique" I said "The Astral Plane is a plane of existence where our spirit animals gather…I think"
Momo nodded "Ah, well did you see your animal?"
I nodded "Indeed I did, I also saw yours"
Momo nodded
"And it was going to be married to mine" I said
Momo blushed as the other girls looked at us.
"Does that mean?" Lavender asked
"No clue" I said, I thought of telling them about the vision I had seen, but that would be over kill. We soon came upon the track field and we quickly grabbed seats in the bleachers. I looked around and noticed someone else familiar in the audience. It was Calvin.
"Hey Calvin!" I yelled "Calvin up here!"
Calvin didn't seem to notice me and just watched. I sighed and went back to looking at the athletes get ready. The event soon went underway. After the hurdles, shotput, and discus throw, it was time for the javelins.
"First up!" The announced for the game said "Is our very own Abigail Eden!"
A girl then walked onto the field, she looked about 16. She had a long blonde hair, blue eyes, and a petit frame. Her face was pretty too, when I say that I mean it. Because when I normally talk to woman I happen to do the boy thing and stare at their breasts more than their face. The girl then went to the end of the Javelin field and picked up a javelin. She then tossed it and it flew through the air with a grace it had never seen before, mostly because when ever I saw stuff thrown it was thrown and somebody to hurt them.
The crowd cheered as the spear hit the five hundred meter mark.
The announcer then spoke; he had a different, more menacing voice now.
"I'm sorry to spoil your afternoon but there is important scientific research to do!" The intercom buzzed "In a few moments a knock out gas will be distributed across the field. Those of you who are not needed by this experiment will be knocked out those who I need will not notice an difference in their behavior"
Gas canisters then shot out from under us and exploded. It was a small, harmless explosion. As the gas began to settle, people began to drop like flies. That was everyone except me, the Mew Mews, and Abbie.
Odd, I thought, why is she still standing.
"Ah good" The announcer laughed "Now I'll be sending my creation Patchwerk to pick you up. Please comply or he will be forced to kill you"
The announcer's voice cut off as the earth began to tremble. Soon a mass of stitched together flesh made its way toward us. It had two huge arms, a disfigured face and a fat belly. The girls almost puked when they first saw this abomination.
"Patchwerk want to play!" It said
I looked at the Mew Mews and we all nodded.
"May God Have Mercy" I said as I slammed my fists together "For I won't"
I soon went into my mew form. Momo was the first to attack.
"Ribbon Peach Blossom!" She exclaimed as she shot an energy flower from her staff. It hit the abomination's stomach and the thing roared.
"You hurt Patchwerk! That not nice! Patchwerk kill not nice people!" The thing said. The abomination then roared and ran at us. We rolled out of the way and I fired my Siberian Cannon at the thing. Lavender used her attack as well. The two attacks hit the abomination at the same time. This hurt it, but not too much. The abomination then leaned forward. Kyoto sprung into action. She ran up to it with light speed.
"Ribbon" She said as she twirled her bamboo staff around, hitting the abomination several times.
"Apple" She said as she smacked the thing in the chin
"Strike!" She said as she leaped into the air, her staff glowed white and the roar of a panda was heard, she then slammed her staff into the back of the abomination. The thing hit the ground but easily got up.
Lisa was next "Sour Lemon Howl!"
She then howled into her microphone and sounds waves emanated from it. These waves hit the abomination, sending it back. The abomination then lunged at the group and quickly grabbed Momo and I.
"You two will make a good snack for Patchwerk!" It laughed
"Ribbon Truffle Spear!" I heard a new voice say. A spear enveloped in a windstorm shot through both hands of the abomination. It then flew back to its thrower. I turned to the thrower. The throw was a girl that looked almost exactly like Abbie, except she had arctic grey wolf ears and an arctic grey wolf tail. She also had Snow white hair. She was wearing a cape made from the hide of an arctic wolf. Her torso was covered by wolf leather vest that cover her entire chest. She had on a long skirt that had the pattern of an arctic wolf and went to the top of her knees and looked as if they were real. She wore hide boots that went to the bottom of her knees. She had a wolf tooth necklace as well.
"Hey who ever you are" I said "Thanks, you did a good job"
The girl nodded and smiled "Thanks"
The abomination roared and opened its mouth and vomited up green slime bolts at us. We dodged all of them.
"Nightwolf Barrage!" I heard a voice say. Soon that wolf boy from last night came onto the scene, letting thousands of white energy bullets out his two pistols. The bullets ripped the abomination's stitching apart. Nightwolf then looked at the girl.
"Finish it off" Nightwolf smiled "I know you can!"
The girl looked at Nightwolf and nodded. She then pulled a wolf tooth from her necklace which then turned into a spear.
"Ribbon Truffle Spear!" She exclaimed as she threw her spear forward. The spear went through the abomination's head. As it collapsed to the ground it muttered its last words.
"What happen to Patchwerk…"
Nightwolf then took out an incendiary grenade and threw it at the corpse of the mass of flesh, which soon caught on fire.
"Just to make sure" Nightwolf spat "Now if you excuse me I have some more work to do"
Nightwolf then bounded off into the distance.
"So what is your name?" I asked the girl
"Abigail Eden" She said "My parents own the Alaskan Wild Berry Products company"
"Can't say I've heard of that" I said
"I have!" Kyoto said "I LOVE their chocolates!"
I sighed "Sorry Kyoto is always this hyper"
"So what is your name?" Abbie asked me
"Adrian Hartman" I said
Abbie nodded "Ryou told me about you"
"Wait, you know Ryou?" I asked
"Well a friend of the family knows him, and when I became a Mew Mew that was one of the people my family's friend put me in contact with" Abbie said
"And how did you become a Mew Mew?" I inquired as we all demorphed. The crowd began to wake up
"I'll tell you later" Abbie said "Also Ryou said that you had a team that I could join"
I nodded "We could use someone of your skills"
Abbie nodded "Alright I'll meet you at the Mew Mew café after this"
I nodded and headed back to the stands, the other girls followed me. The track and field event soon went underway and for the rest of the time I smiled. Abbie seemed like a good addition to the team.
"Yeah" I said to myself "This is going to be one kickass team"
