So Pai, how are you feeling?
Pai; I feel like my body is attacking itself and it gets worse when I think of-
No giving away the plot!
Pai; sorry about that
No problem! Now, disclaimer please!
Pai; She owns nothing, except for the strange mind that comes up with these things.
I know! Time to die- I mean begin!
Pai; what?
Chapter two;
Welcome back to the land of the living, Pai.
Black eyes slowly slide open, they look around the room, and they slide shut once more.
'Alright, let's start from the beginning, see what I can remember,' Pai thinks, lifting a weak arm to his forehead, 'My name is Pai Alexander Ikisatashi. I'm sixteen, or maybe seventeen, depending on how long I've been slipping in and out of consciousness. My parents both died in a fire when I was nine, as well as my newborn sister.' His hand flies to his chest as a sharp wave of pain rips through his body, he begins breathing heavier. 'Calm down. Alright, I have two brothers, Kisshu is fourteen, considering that I haven't woken up during winter, and Kish's birthday is on November ninth. My other brother is Taruto Zachary Ikisatashi, and he's ten, or eleven. I don't know Kish's middle name, nor if he even has one. I should ask him. Taruto's birthday is the fifth of June, and mine is March fourteenth. That's why my name is Pai, as in the mathematical term. I live with my brothers, grandpa, and aunt. We went to earth to fight the mews. Ichigo, Mint, Lettuce, Pudding, and Zakuro…'
Pai pushes himself up to a sitting position, noting that his bed has a quilt he hasn't seen before. 'Zakuro… she was the one closest to my age. She was pretty- no. That doesn't describe her well. Deadly is accurate, she's kind of like fire, pretty to look at, but you can't get too close. Ugh, I sound like Kish talking about Ichigo!' He pauses to chuckle, thinking of Kish talking about how he'd win Ichigo over by being a friend, then getting after she breaks up with the tree-hugger. 'No, I'm not that obsessed, she is interesting though.' Pai puts his weight on the desk next to his bed; he had used this desk for a long time. A dent in the wood remains from when he was angry and threw a throwing knife from his belt in a random direction, it wound up hitting the desk. He walks over to the black dresser on the other side of the room, several pictures adorn the top of the desk, one is a woman with long purple hair like Pai's, and orange-gold eyes like Taruto's, and a Man with short brown hair and black eyes a shade or two darker than Pai's.
Pai grabs some clothes and makes sure the door is locked before getting changed, 'I've been half-dead for at least three weeks, considering I've discussed with my brothers my plans involving the droids which can work longer and harder than humans. Naturally, my grandpa would want to wait until everyone else's houses were built until building ours. My aunt is a tailor, and my grandpa is a leader of the government, no doubt he was put in charge of the country they formed.' He pulls off his shirt after changing his pants and boxers, wincing when his arms go over his head, and pulls a dark grey shirt with buttons down the middle on one arm at a time. 'I'm the leader of the best warriors, only two are older than me. There are… twenty others? No, twenty-two, a few of them are mentors for the other groups. They're all around my age, one was thirteen when we left' he opens his door and takes in his surroundings.
A small grass yard is surrounded on all sides by a building in the shape of a 'u' there are about twenty rooms. To the right, past another door is a house with a sliding glass door. A girl with blonde hair and silver eyes along with a boy with brown hair with red tips, his head turned away from the door, are sitting in a living room with Kish and Taruto. A lady with dark purple hair and white eyes is leaning on the back of the dark brown couch where Kish and Taruto are sitting. 'Taking into account our cousins and other relatives, makes sense. Perhaps the mew mews would be interested in visiting Cyniclon.' He walks to the door and slides it open, Taruto turns and suddenly Pai is being hugged.
"You're awake!" Taruto yells. Pai chuckles and gives his brother a small hug back.
"Yes, now let go, I'd like to stay awake, and I still have wounds on my chest," He replies. Taruto floats a bit back, letting go of his brother. "Good, so how long have I been asleep?"
"About a month," The blonde girl replies calmly, "There are now three countries, farms are being established, there's a government for all three, people are healthier, and the prisoners from before all died before they were going to be sent to the other side of the world with no way to teleport.
"Interesting," Pai says, thinking for a few seconds, "Hey aunt."
"Hey Pai, you have to be hungry, be right back!" She runs into another room.
"So… did I miss anything else?" Pai asks.
"Well, in general terms, the government was impressed by your droids, but claimed you clearly got the idea from Earth, sent someone there, realized they didn't have that technology yet, and gave you the patent rights," The girl responds, "They also had to give credit for your stations in space that cut the travel time from Earth to Cyniclon to four days. So yeah, you're still a credible inventor-guy."
"Ross, you know I meant with the others," Pai says to the blonde.
"Well Mathew is bi, and we caught him making out with another dude, Ruby, Nala, and Macy are, well they're them. Olivia and Isaiah are both in Seaborg, another country, Lacy and Travis are dating, and the rest are just being themselves."
"Good to know Will," Pai says calmly. He walks over to the couch and sits down, one leg bent under his other knee; he grabs his laptop (Black, with the symbol for pi on the center) and turns it on. He looks up at the others as the computer turns on. They sit there for a few seconds in a comfortable silence, the Spanish soap operas continuing on the television.
"Taruto, Kisshu," Pai starts, his brothers snap to attention, "You're leaving for Earth soon, aren't you?"
"Well…" Kish starts.
"We we're invited by the mew mews!" Taruto says, standing up, "Pudding gave me an e-mail address, and they asked us to come back to Earth to visit sometime!"
"When do you leave?" Pai asks.
"Next week…" Kish says, "We were waiting for you to wake up so we knew you were alright. You'll come with us to Earth wont you?"
"Kish, I would, but I can barely walk around, there's no way I'm going to Earth yet," Pai says, "so you two should go on ahead, and I'll join you on Earth in a month or so. I want to see how Cyniclon is doing, and see if I can improve on whatever they're doing."
"Aw," Taruto says, "You'll probably be here for a year!" Pai chuckles, and presses some buttons on his laptop, blueprints flash on screen.
"I swear I'll leave for Earth at two months max," Pai says, "That sound good?"
"Yeah, but cousin wants to come to Earth as well," Kish says.
"Xander wants to go to Earth?" Pai asks, "Why?"
"He doesn't want you upstaging him," Taruto says.
"Alright, you realize someone who knows how to cook needs to go with you right?" Pai asks.
"Yeah, but you could just teach Taruto!" Kish says, "But not me, Gramps will kill me if I damage the house again."
"Again?" Pai asks, "When did you damage the house."
"I didn't damage the house!" Kish says, laughing nervously, "I definitely didn't crash your hoverboard prototype thing into the wall of your lab!" He slams his hands over his mouth as Pai glares at him.
"You WHAT?!" He stands up and Kish runs away, "Get back here!"
"And things are back to normal…" Ross says.
"Yep, Rossie, we have to go!" Will says, "We're going to be late." She nods and they leave, waving to Taruto.

"Well, well," The keeper says, sitting in Café Mew Mew, watching the mew mews at work while eating a strawberry quiche. "How funny, I find a strawberry quiche in the heart of the mew mews. How interesting."
"Sir," Lettuce says timidly, "H-here's your hot cocoa." She hands him a purple mug filled with the liquid.
"Thank you, you shouldn't stutter, you're too pretty," He says smoothly, taking a sip from his mug. She blushes, then turns and walks away quickly. A smirk forms against his pale lips.
'Shame she's so annoyingly shy, other than that, she was very much worthy of the power of mew aqua,' he thinks, admiring the fish-girl, 'hmm… I think I'll offer her the position of my queen. If she agrees, I may be willing to help her with her imperfection. Yes, she will do quite nicely.' He listens into Lettuce and Pudding's conversation from across the room.
"So their cousin is joining them, and Pai has to stay back for a little while?" Lettuce asks Pudding.
"Yes Na no Da! He's a year older than you Na no DA!" Pudding says, rather loudly, Zakuro walks up to them.
"Why can't Pai come immediately?" Zakuro asks.
"Because he was injured Na no Da!" Pudding says, "Taru-Taru didn't give me any details, but it sounded bad."
'Oh it is much more than bad,' Keeper things, 'Everything that makes him unworthy will cause him to feel like his wounds are being burned with boiling hot water, and salt sprinkled into the wounds. Wait… that doesn't sound right…'
"I see… wonder how, must be bad, after all it's Pai we're talking about." Zakuro turns on her heel and heads over to another table, dropping the conversation. Pudding and Lettuce follow suit.
"I think I need to do a little research on this cousin of theirs, might be interesting…" he rises from his chair, leaving the money on the table. "I hate doing research though, wish I could make Pai do it, but that wouldn't work." He walks into a secluded part of the forest and his bat wings shoot from his back and he heads off, already planning. "Yes, this will be fun, and Abigail won't be able to stop me this time!" He lets out a laugh, and opens a portal to a beautiful white world, stepping through, he kicks Abigail's dead body down some stairs, and it lands in a small fountain. "Let's begin." He sinks into a black chair, and powers up an orb of energy, showing a boy with red hair and bright orange eyes, he's laughing next to Pai, who's glaring at him. The keeper sits back to watch, lazily eyeing the boy, who is dressed in black and white, and his short hair is spiked slightly.
Yay! I updated!
Pai; should I be concerned about all the not-main characters who are appearing?
Nah, they're not important, well, other than your cousin I guess. Just needed some people for you to know
Pai; alright, so long as you're not going to introduce too many new people.
Right! That isn't going to happen, at least in this story.
Pai; wait what do you mean-
SEE YOU ALL NEXT TIME!
