AnimeKoneko is back and ready to continue with the story.
Ikuto: It's about time. We were starting to think that you had abandoned us.
AnimeKoneko: I haven't been away that long.
Ichigo: Yes, so shut up, Ikuto!
Ikuto: *Pulls one of Ichigo's pigtails*
Ichigo: Ouch! You idiot! *Transforms and attacks Ikuto*
AnimeKoneko: Okay . . . let's just continue.
Ichigo: And thank you Nikaru12 for the review . . . Ow! That was my tail!
AnimeKoneko: Chapter 2 everybody! And remember: I DO NOT OWN!
Ichigo started walking towards the strange creature, but she had hardly taken a step when someone grabbed her arm, pulling her back. The cat girl yanked her arm free and immediately turned around, coming face to face with a blue-haired boy.
"What do you think you're doing?" Ikuto said. "It's dangerous here."
Ichigo snorted. "I can tell you the same thing."
She didn't give Ikuto time to reply and instead ran to the enemy's location. Yoru appeared beside the lynx boy.
"You must character change-nya."
Ikuto didn't say anything and just nodded in agreement. In the meantime, Ichigo had also activated her transformation.
"MEW MEW STRAWBERRY. METAMORPHOSIS!
"MY OWN HEART: UNLOCK!" (If you guys want, you can check out this video I found on Youtube: watch?v=mFSyGBZoYGI, it's the two of them transforming together. PS: I don't own the video)
Once their transformations were complete they were both looking very different.
Ichigo's hair and eyes have turned bubblegum pink and she had grown black cat ears and a tail. Her tail has a dark pink ribbon tied around it with a bell. Her hair is let down and is slightly curlier. She wears a short light pink dress with matching arm garters and a leg garter on her right thigh, along with a choker around her neck. Her gloves are dark pink that reaches to her wrists. Her boots are dark pink with black laces and reaches to her knees. She has dark pink lace, lining the top of her dress and the top and bottom of her arm garters, leg garter, and her choker. Her choker also has her Mew Pendant dangling from it.
Ikuto had grown black cat ears and a cat tail and wore a short navy top with long navy pants. He also wore gloves on his arms with metal claws on his right hand. His collar is also in an upright position, hiding his chin.
Both of them gasped when they noticed each other's new appearances. Especially the cat ears and tail part. Ichigo was shocked to see another person with cat features, especially the person being a boy. Ikuto's eyes were wide, betraying how surprised he is that another cat person even existed.
Is this the character that she wants to be?
The lynx boy looked around but didn't spot any charas, only a weird pink, fluffy creature that circled Ichigo's head. That was no chara. He was very confused and just kept staring at her.
Although Ichigo was surprised, her gaze hardened and she saw this boy as a possible threat, maybe even an alien.
That must be the only explanation, right?
She turned her back on him and hissed over her shoulder.
"Don't get in my way."
Ikuto didn't answer and just kept staring at her. Ichigo snorted and jumped into the air, wanting to land a blow on the little creature's head from above. She extended her leg and landed on the big red cross, that's located on the black figure's head, with a loud thud. The Mew's eyes immediately started to water as pain shot through her entire leg. It was excruciating!
Ichigo landed on the ground, grabbed her injured leg and started jumping around on one leg (the leg that is not injured of course)
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!" she hissed through gritted teeth. "That alien's head is sure hard-nya!"
Ikuto smiled at the funny sight and Ichigo shot him a glare, but the lynx boy didn't even flinch and just widened his grin. The pink Mew took a deep breath and called for her weapon.
"Strawberry bell!"
"Why aren't you fighting-nya?" Yoru asked. Ikuto smirked.
"She seems capable of defeating it."
Ichigo was now holding her weapon out in front of her, pointing it straight at her enemy. But before she could call the familiar words, the little creature gave a huge grin and floated higher.
"HATE!" It screeched, releasing a purple force that clashed into her, sending her crashing against a fence. Ichigo screamed as her body made contact with the hard wood and slithered down into a heap on the ground.
"Now?" Yoru asked when he noticed Ikuto's shocked and worried expression.
"Yes," Ikuto said preparing to jump when he felt someone push him out of the way. His eyes widened when he saw Ichigo jumping into the air again, her weapon in her hand.
Is this girl crazy? Ikuto thought. That was a pretty hard hit.
Ichigo yowled and started hitting the creature with her strawberry bell, specifically aiming for the cross on its head. Something told her that was its weak spot.
The cross on the figure's head started cracking and Ichigo gave a satisfied smile. She stepped on the creature's head and used it to push herself higher into the air. Twirling with her arms extended on either side, a bright light formed around her. She lifted her bell above her head and screamed,
"Ribbon Strawberry Surprise!"
Different colours appeared out of her weapon, heading straight for the X-figure. It screeched and then vanished altogether, leaving in its place a white egg with distinctive golden markings. The egg flew away at a fast speed and Ichigo watched it go with confusion in her eyes.
Weird, she thought when she planted her feet on solid ground once more. Her weapon disappeared and she stood with her back facing Ikuto.
"What are you?" she asked, not looking behind her. "Since you have appeared, strange things had started happening."
When Ikuto didn't reply, she continued.
"Is that egg that had just flown away dangerous? Can it hurt somebody?"
Ikuto didn't answer and just kept staring at her. Ichigo growled with annoyance and spun around rapidly, her hands clenched into fists.
"Answer me, dagnabbit!"
The cat girl froze when Ikuto came closer, making the gap between them shrink more and more. She backed away until her back touched the wall behind her. Ikuto smirked and extended his hand to lightly touch her cat ear. All her instincts told her to wipe that grin off his arrogant, but handsome face. But Ichigo's heart told her otherwise.
The Mew allowed Ikuto to touch her ear. He smirked when he felt how warm they are.
"Well, they're definitely real," he said, flicking her nose. He loved teasing her and grinned when he saw how angry she looked.
"Of course they are real!" she said, pushing him away. "And who do you think you are, just touching me whenever you feel like it!? And I know you're an alien, so you can stop pretending."
Ichigo jumped onto his back and started pulling his cat ears, trying to get the 'disguise' off. Ikuto shrieked in pain when the Mew gave a strong yank. It felt as though his head was being pulled off his shoulders.
"Come on, alien ears. Show yourself!"
Ikuto started running around in circles with the crazy cat girl still clinging onto his back, refusing to let go. She also started pulling his face, making him yell when her claws dug into his delicate skin.
"Reveal yourself, alien!" Ichigo ordered, pulling his hair.
"I'm no alien," Ikuto said, before his legs gave way and he fell onto the cement floor with Ichigo on top of him. The Mew gasped and tried to get up, but was forced back down when Ikuto wrapped his arms around her back, pulling her close.
"What are you doing?!" she shrieked when she noticed how close her face was to his. Ichigo didn't look into his eyes, her face turned, trying to get up.
"You sure are one crazy girl," he whispered into her ear, before releasing his hold, allowing her to sit upright. Ichigo turned beet red when her hands landed on his stomach.
This is just wrong in so many ways, she thought. Ichigo crawled backwards until she was off him before she stood up. She didn't want him to look under her dress. The Mew's blush darkened when that thought came into her mind.
"Blushing about me, I see," Ikuto said as he stood up, dusting himself off.
"Of course not, you arrogant boy!" Ichigo said angrily. "Doing what you want is still not okay!"
"Oh?" Ikuto said questioningly as he lowered his head to look her in the eye. "But I bet you enjoyed every second of it."
Ichigo felt her face burning up when she realized that Ikuto's spoken words might be true. Ichigo crossed her arms in front of her chest and turned around with a last 'hmph'.
"I'm going home," she said in a snobby tone, slowly walking away from the lynx boy. Ikuto chuckled when he lost sight of her, shaking his head.
That girl is something.
His character transformation dissolved and Yoru appeared in front of him.
"What was that all about-nya?"
Ikuto grinned and patted the chara on its head, ruffling its fur.
"I just have a feeling that that girl is very special."
Ikuto looked over his shoulder again, contemplating if he should follow her or not. It would be convenient to know where she lived. He made up his mind and character changed. Now, only his cat ears and tail appeared. Ikuto jumped onto a branch above his head and held onto the tree's trunk while searching for something pink.
He did spot dark pink hair and came to the conclusion that she must have also detransformed. The lynx boy looked at the path that she had followed more closely, wanting to remember it. Ikuto jumped onto the ground again and started following her invisible trail.
Ichigo: You're gonna follow me home!? Blegh!
Ikuto: Don't be so stubborn. We all know you can't resist me.
Ichigo: *Slightly blushing* Idiot.
AnimeKoneko: Come on, Ichigo. Admit it.
Ichigo: *Turns her back on the duo* I'm not speaking to either of you two.
Ikuto: Please review, or else I might follow you home as well.
AnimeKoneko: Now you know they won't review! *Glares at Ikuto*
AnimeKoneko Out!
