WOOF WOOF POWER, CHAPTER TWENTY- SIXT

"this time.,..it's perconal!"

otachi and Mints wehre wondering where LEttuce was. They were worried. Mint had on her searching glasses. they looked everywhere but could not find Lerruce. She was problaby getting into trouble, thought mint...

"Oh, I hope she is okay!" Said Mint Otachi. Otachi nodded and agreed he did not want lettice to be in troubl, the thought was scary in itself.

Just then they saww the evil coming...IT WAS A VAMPIRE.

"Mint! Look out!" said Otachi. Mint reacted and transformed. Otachi got out his wolf sword and held it up. the vampite landed, and there...he was with someone, it was LETTUCE

"lettuce" said otachi "what are you foing with that vampire?" he narrowed his eyes and they were red like rubies. Lettue blushed and held her hand out "dont attack" she said "i am with a friend he is here to help us."

oatchi and Mint looked at the vampire questioningyl. "Who is this then" said mint, looking at the vampire over. she got close to otahci because she was scared of b in vampires.

Ciel snorted and scoffed. "IWHO AM I?" he said. he was still drunk from bloos. "I am the king of the vampires...of ALL OF THE CAMPIRES! Of course you should know who I am!" he laughed and fell over, letcue was embarasd

"whats his problem" mint asked

"he looks drunk" said otachi.

"he is drunk" confirmed the lettuce.

"I can se ehtat said Mint, but what is he doing HERE?" she tappbed her foot, impatient.

"he is here to help up he is a good person, I promise, he's just sad and...he has a drinking problem, I think" I said to Otachi.

Otachi saw Ciel. he was on the floor, lying down and barfing up blodd. It was gross, but thats how vampires get when they are durnk. "Sigh okay let's get him back to Cafe Mew, he needs out help obviously."

"WAT" said Mint. She did not like that idea.

"thank you" lettuce said, picking Ciel up. They put him on the top of the mew mew tank and began to drive to the cafe.

mint was

brooding thast because she didn't like the idea of ciel being there, he was an evil vampire in her mind. there was nothing good to be happening if a vampire was among the mew mews...they were suppose to uphold justice, not be some vampirte hospital people!

"I don't klike this" mint said. they didnt hear her. they got to the cafe and mitn stayed off to the side.

"I dont need your help" Ciel said bitterly as otachi helped him in him into the cafe. He sat down with on the chair.

"who this" said Ryou who came up.

"Hi bro this is a guest... said otachi. ryou looked unconvinced.

"He's heere to help up, please be nice to him he's drunk" said Lettuce.

"I NEED A DRINK!" shouted Ciel. Lettuce was embarassed...she knew he didn't mean it, but he was acting like a fool!

Otachi pushed Lettuce to the side "Lettuce is this a good idea are you sure? he looks..."

"I know." said lettuce. "i will take care of it" so lettuce and ciel went into the back room, leaving mint and otachi in the main room alone. there were no customers in the cafe. mnt sighed.

"I can't wait until spring brake is over..." she said "i am tired of fighitng I want to be a student again. first i am a mew mew and then go into spave and now vampires? otachi this is too much..."

"it's okay we will protect eachother...okay? i will protect you."

"I guess so so" said mint and she hugged otchi. being close to him mafe her heart race...she could feel his breath on her cheek. "otachi...do you lick anyone?" she asked gently.

"why do you ask" asked otachi curiously

"i...i like someone"

"who"

"you." she said quietly.

Otachi blushed and kissed her forehead "i like you too, mitn, you are a good friend.

"Friend?" mint was embarassed. she turned and left.

"wait!" otachi called after her but she did not hear her. she needed to be alone. it was too much to bear, she was so streessed and sad from all that was happening. She cried into her hankycheif and was by herself.

just then, she heard a voice.

"you look said child" mint looked up it was an old gypsie lady. mint was wondering what she wanted and asked "what do you want?" the gyspies said "I am doing fortune readings let me do you for free my pretty" mint shrugged and did it to get mind off bad happenings and to maybe learn of good prospects in this future.

the lady drew cards and read them

"oh my" she said

"what is wrong" said mint. the gyspies said "take this, mint, it is miportant for your safetly"

"How do you know my name!" said gasped, but the lady was gone. in her hand was a crystline magic pendant. Mint looked, it was a silver chain with tiny diamonds and a big blue ruby in the center. it was beautiful. mint put it around her neck. I wonder what it is, she though. how strange of the lady to just vanish like this"

Mint went back to the cafe. Ciel, Lettuce, Otachi, and Zakuro were there. Ryou was there, too. She went up. "whats happening"

"Ciel is better." said lettuce. "what is that you have?" lettuce asked.

"oh nothing just ive always had this" mint said defensly but lettuce ent to touch that

"NO!" shouted ciel he recognized the pendant "DFONT GET THAT ITS MAGIC!" but it was too late. all of the people in the room were engulfed in a hot, white light. Then, they vanished, leaving bob there alone.

THEY WENT TO...THE PAST!
