Me: This… is one of those random fics that just make it to being typed.
Mum: Aren't they all?
Me: MUUUUUM! GET OUT OF MY FIC!
Mum: Is that any way to talk to your mother?
Me: GO AWAY!
Mum: Fine! Li- Sorry M3W ANJU still lives under my roof, so she can't own Tokyo Mew Mew.
"Heicha? Come on Heicha, stop pulling my leg. Wake up, Heicha," Pudding called out to her little sister, sleeping in a hospital bed. The seven year old, now brunet, girl had been unresponsive for three days prior to the operation on her liver, but Pudding stayed by her side the entire time. Four hours after her liver transplant, she fell asleep, scaring both Pudding and the doctors. Now, the heart monitor was slowing, and the spikes were getting smaller, until, it was just a flat line. The monkey mew's fear reached a spike so high that she was happy she was wearing a hoodie, because she was so frightened that her monkey ears and tail popped out, so a tan hoodie with the hood up was a very helpful item.
The doctor to her left was very sympathetic. "Gomen nasi, Pudding-san, but we couldn't save her, and we know she was the only family you had left."
"No," Pudding shook her head, "She was my biological family I had left." Pudding turned around to see her four best friends.
Ichigo's hair had grown over the last four years, and it was always seen in a high pony tail. Much better for a seventeen year old up and coming actress.
Mint now let her hair down, and she was now beautiful, young, dance teacher's assistant. So between work and school, the girls don't see Mint much.
Lettuce, who now has shoulder length hair, is an exclusive scientist for a research company to find the cures for skin and lung cancers, and now lives in a very large villa.
Zakuro, who's hair is now the same at Lettuce's, chose to retire on her fortune, and also lived in a large villa, with many a staff.
So, sounds like they all have lives to kill for, right?
WRONG!
Ichigo's been rejected more times than anyone can count. Mint's so stressed that no one's been able to talk to her without her bursting into tears. Lettuce was rejected by every company, and ended up dealing dope for two months, until the police caught her and she was put into rehabilitation. Zakuro got fired because she wasn't on the news enough, so they replaced her with Berri.
"Don't worry Pudding, you can come live with me, none of us want you to be alone," Lettuce hugged the younger girl, who hugged her back.
"Plus, Zakuro, Mint, and I will come too, right guys?" Ichigo comforted, glancing briefly at the others.
"Duh! Lettuce's house is way better than mine," Mint laughed, sending everyone into shock. "What? I'm not allowed to laugh?"
Lettuce shook her head. "No, it's just a surprise, compared to the last two years," she explained. "Come on, Pudding, let's go pack."
Now, Lettuce lives with Ichigo, but they don't really live in a villa or a house, they live in the aliens' abandoned dimension.
When they arrived, Pudding just ran through the area looking for a room. Mint and Zakuro both went to their temporary rooms, as they visited often.
"Pudding, where are you going?" Lettuce yelled after her, as she was running into an area they didn't want her going, the old aliens' rooms.
The first room that Pudding came to was Ichigo's, once Kish's, which was decorated with pink walls and black kitten plushies, and one, single photo of one of the times Kish followed her, and she was smiling.
The next room was once Pai's lab and room that were now Lettuce's. All the finless porpoise posters were still up around the purple and green bed, and the bedside table now hosed a rare picture of Pai smiling.
Finally, Pudding came to the last room in the hall, and fell to the floor, crying. The room, which Lettuce and Ichigo forgot to lock, was Taruto's room, untouched from the day they left. The bed, still half made, was orange and red, a small plant resided on the shelf to the left of the door. One little box, that had collected dust, was stationed on the bed side table. When Pudding opened it, she found some of her mew uniform, a rock, a photo of the two of them, and a red candy wrapper.
"Pudding! Are alright?!" Ichigo asked. "You shouldn't have come down here," she said trying to pull the monkey mew away, who pulled her arm out of the cat girl's grasp.
"I want this room," she said, looking at her feet, with a stern voice.
Lettuce, who had heard the commotion, interjected, saying, "Hey, Pudding, are you sure? There are plenty of other rooms here, why don't you have one of those?"
"NO!" the little girl in question yelled at her two friends, then she stormed into Tart's old room, and slammed the door in their faces.
"Do you think…?" Ichigo asked.
"No, she's just a little stre-" Lettuce was cut off by a sound no one had heard in all most five years: A Charisma alert. And it was coming from inside Pudding's room. Soon, all the pendants were going off.
A loud smashing sound came from behind the red door, followed by a surprised shriek from Pudding.
Ichigo and lettuce managed to bash down the door only to see Pudding rolling around laughing and Kish freaking out over that fact.
Kish turned around to see the seventeen year old Ichigo. "Koneko-chan! Aren't you looking stunni-" Ichigo cut him off by hugging him, shocking him to no end.
"Are you really my Koneko-chan, or am I dreaming… again?" he thought aloud.
"Don't put ownership on things you don't own, baka," Ichigo hissed in his oversized ear, "But I did miss you!"
Suddenly, another portal opened up, and someone was heard yelling, "Ok, ok, I'm going! Jeez, Sorbet!" And then, out came Pai.
"Kisshu, Sorbet almost killed me because you weren't back," he started, not noticing the three mew mews in the room. "Ying, Yang, Cake, and Taruto had to hold her back, and even then she managed to get a hold of the kitchen knife and aim it at my leg! I only just missed it. Oh, hi Mew Lettuce, Mew Ichigo, Mew Pudding… Wait, MEW MEWS!?" This sent everyone into a huge laughing fit.
"Hello Pai-san, may I ask who Ying, Yang, Sorbet, and Cake are?" Lettuce asked politely.
Pai sighed. "Sorbet is mine and Tart's, very deadly, little sister, Cake, her best friend, is Kisshu's little sister, lots of fun, and Ying and Yang are our cousins," he explained, "We had to bring them along this time, much to our dismay."
"This time?" the mews asked in chorus.
"We've been sent back to try reclaim Earth… again," Kish sighed, slightly annoyed.
"Wait, so… he's… back?" Pudding whispered her question.
"He'll be here if we don't get back and lie to Sorbet. She's like the leader now, and I'm really not happy about it! She will kill me, since I'm her least favorite brother," Pai announced, teleporting out.
"Nice seeing you," the green haired alien said, too teleporting.
"Well, we know what this means…" Lettuce started.
"Yeah," Ichigo yelled, "I have to work at that dumb café again!"
"Shut up, Ichigo, we all have to, if we don't we become broke, and we go hungry," Pudding hissed at the neko girl.
Then, the Charisma alert went off.
Me: Yeah, I'm happy with this chapter! And I hate coffee!
Aria: I thought you were drinking coffee as you wrote this.
Me: Those were cappuccinos, Aria, get your facts straight!
Aria: Sorry, Anju, I'm little worried about Amelia, remember?
Me: Of course I know, I'm the one she calls all the time saying she's going to die!
Aria: We should stop cutting, huh?
Me: Yeah… Review people! M3W ANJU LUVZ YA'LL!
