Kumori: “You’re a demon but there’s real poison sprinkled on the petals.”
Ryou: “Just hand the girl over now and give her the flowers!”
Kumori: “I can’t! It could kill the babies!”
Ryou: “What are you talking about?”
I drop them on the ground. The dust flies around. I fall to the ground.
Kumori: “Louie doesn’t look alright…why hasn’t he woke up, already? Did they poison him, too?”
I pick up the flowers. I focus my energy. The flowers turn to ash then disappear. I fall to the ground.
Pudding: “Why are we hurting them?”
Masaya: “We aren’t…it just looks like we are…yea…”
I wake up.
Ryou: “Why haven’t you grabbed Ichigo, yet?”
Masaya: “I was waiting for her to pass out so she won’t get in our way.”
Ichigo: “Masaya?...It’s you?”
Kisshu: “Stop! Please don’t go, Ichigo! I beg you! You can go if you want, just don’t forget what you’re leaving behind.”
He rubs her ears.
Kisshu: “LOL…I took your virgin ears.”
Masaya: “You did what?”
Kisshu: “I wish I had gotten as far as sleeping with her. I bet she has great passion.”
Masaya: “Shut up!”
I hear a ringing. I reach for the phone.
Kumori: “Every one, shut up!”
I answer it.
Kumori: “Uh-huh. I see, sir. I think that can be arranged. Let me call you back. I’m in the middle of something.”
I hang up the phone.
Masaya: “Who was that?”
Kumori: “Why could I tell you?”
I stand up.
Kumori: “Now get the hell out before I take you out!”
I pull out my pistol putting it to his head.
Louie sleepily looks over at us.
Kisshu: “What’s going on? Who called?”
Kumori: “A man with a heart-felt story and a big job. Hey, we’re back…now get the ******** out of our house!”
He backs out. The others follow. They shut the door.
Kumori: “Are you ready to join the team, Ichigo?”
Ichigo: “I don’t know…um…um…”
Kumori: “You better chase quickly, ‘cause we got one of the biggest hits we’ve had in a long, long time.”
Kisshu: “You sure you want to do this?”
Kumori: “Yea…this man’s family, he and his little girl need their justice.”
I hand her a gun.
Kumori: “You know how to use that?”
Ichigo: “No!...”
Kumori: “Huh…we need to train you…but we don’t have the time now.”
I take the gun back, giving her a knife.
Kumori: “You’ll need this, eventually.”
I flick my cig, grinning.
Louie: “What man? This is big!”
I put on my cloak, sliding it on.
Louie: “”It fits nicely.”
Kumori: “Aw…thanks. It’s been awhile.”
He wraps his arms around me.
Louie: “It has.”
My hair glistens in the light. The curls tighten up and my hair grows longer. I giggle.
Louie: “I remember our old life together, before Dova and Wolf.”
Kumori: “Me, too…”
I reach into my pocket pulling out a blue rose.
Kumori: “It’s not wilted.”
Louie: “Of course not because you’re ability to love hasn’t wilted. It’s gotten stronger.”
He kisses me, and then gently taps the flower. Its petals spread out and the petals have black sparks.
Ichigo’s eyes get big.
Louie: “WOW! You still love me a lot…a lot-a lot!”
Kumori: “Hell yea! Especially now.”
Louie: “WOW! Someone’s frisky!”
He rubs my neck. His ears stand up.
Kisshu: “We are right here.”
Louie: “What? Oh sorry…forgot you two were there.”
He stops rubbing my neck.
Ichigo: “So what’s going on?”
Kumori: “We have to kill or hold captive one of Tokyo’s biggest bank C.E.O’s.”
Ichigo: “Oh WOW…that’s a big, dangerous job. It doesn’t seem right.”
Kumori: “Don’t worry; it’s the right thing to do.”
Ichigo: “I trust you and if this benefits the good, I’ll join the team.”
Kumori: “I’ll go over the plan tonight, this goes down tomorrow.”

Masaya: “What are they planning?”
Ryou: “It’s probably nothing…got rest…you need it.”
Masaya walks out of the room. Ryou sits down in a chair…he sighs.
Ryou: “They are planning something.”
Keichiro: “They are I can feel it.”
Ryou: “What’s wrong?”
Keichiro: “What if they are not evil?”
Keichiro: “I believe they aren’t evil, they might be a little dark, but they’re still good.”
Ryou: “Is that because you like Kumori?”
Keichiro: “A little, but for other reasons…”
Ryou: “Yea…Huh?...”
The next day:
I walk down a white, narrow long hallway. I walk past a long oak desk. I walk over to an elevator, I step on. I press the top floor button. I put on my black cloak. The elevator stops. Some people get on. Most of them look at me and the floor I was waiting for. An old man looked up at me. He looked nice. I smiled at him.
The old man: “Hello, Deary. Looks like you’ve gotten a lot of people interested in you.”
A man: “Shut up old man!”
I look down at the old man and smile.
Kumori: “Don’t mind them. What’s wrong?”
The old man: “I’ve worked in this company for 60-years and they move me to the mail room. They fired me today. They said that my job could be done at a faster pace by a younger up-tight, fast working youngster. What am I gonna tell my wife? That horrible grumble.”
Kumori: “If she truly loves you, she’ll understand. You seem like a very nice man and that C.E.O. will get what’s coming to him. I promise.”
The old man: “Thank you. Good luck.”
He and a few people get off with the old man.
Kumori: “Bye. Almost there….God, it’s hot in here.
I flip my hood down, whipping my face off with a wet wipe. The door opens at the top floor. I put on my hood.
Kumori: “This is my stop.”
Body guard: “Huh?...Who are you? You aren’t supposed to be here!”
I walk off of the elevator.
I do a flip. I land in front of his desk.
I mutter: “Mew Mew Fox transformation.”
I drop my hood.
Kumori: “Hello sir…hmmm…”
C.E.O.:”How are you?”
Body guard: “Just tell me to and I’ll take her out.”
Kumori: “He wouldn’t want to do that knowing he’s on TV.”
C.E.O.: “What? I am?”
A black cat jumps out of my cloak.
Kumori: “I am a member of the team Dark Mew.”
C.E.O.: “Like Tokyo Mew-Mew?”
I jump up behind him.
Kumori: “Sort of…except Dark Mew doesn’t fight Aliens, we fight injustice, like what you’ve done.”
C.E.O: “What are you doing?”
Kumori: “Thinking whether I should kill you or not.”
C.E.O.: “Why would you want to do that?”
Kumori: “You know why. Because of all of the people you’ve screwed over. Lying off some people, I can understand, but the old man from the mail room and the man whose daughter needs a liver transplant. He begged you not to lay him off and he’d do anything to keep his job so that he could pay for meds.”
C.E.O.: “I know…but we couldn’t pay for him.”
Kumori: “******** could have given him money. No…NO…too much corruption! You blame others but people like you are to blame!”
C.E.O.: “So what are you gonna use your prettiful power on me?”
Kumori: “My powers are pretty and I prefer to call them abilities and they’re very colorful but I’m not going to use them.”
C.E.O.: “Then what do you plan to use?”
Kumori: “My gun.”
I put my gun to his head.
The body guard pulls out a gun pointing it at me.
Kumori: “Oh WOW…I dare you!”
Body guard: “What are you gonna do?”
He shoots the gun.
Kumori: “You shouldn’t have done that!”
It hits me in the forehead. I fall back onto the table. The black cat jumps from my lap, landing in front of the body guard. It transforms into Louie.
Louie: “How dare you touch her!”
I sit up; rubbing my head, the blood drips down my hand…I watch it…”
Louie slowly pulls out his katana. I look up at him noticing he was in his Mew form.
The body guard backs up against t wall. He puts the katana to the body guard’s neck.
Louie: “You’re lucky the camera is on.” He flips the katana, putting it back in the holder. He then pulls out his gun. He pistol-whips the body guard. He passes out.
Kumori: “Now let’s get back to what we were sent to do.”
C.E.O. “What are you planning to do?”
Kumori: “Empty your pockets…and your wallet.”
I gather together the money.
Kumori: “Now…tell me where the safe is.”
C.E.O.: “Why? Do you want to kill me in front of all of these people?”
Kumori: “Someone’s getting cocky…just like an American C.E.O. WOW…oh and I didn’t mean kill you. I meant hurt you.”
C.E.O: “I’d like to see you try.”
I grab him by the neck. He kicks me. He starts choking me. I grab his leg.
C.E.O.: “What are you doing to me?”
A little puddle of water floats next to my head.
Kumori: “Let’s just say that water there used to be in your body.” He gets wide-eyed.
C.E.O.: “It’s under the latch on the floor under my desk.”
I let go of him. The water goes back.
I run, getting under the desk, moving it.
C.E.O.: “HA! I have a gun and you don’t have the safe code!”
Kumori: “I don’t need it.”
I put my hand on the safe and focus my energy.
The C.E.O. shakes, holding the gun. My hair blows back. The top layer of the safe starts to turn to ash. I reach in, grabbing the cash.
The C.E.O. stares blankly at me.
I grab the camera. Lovie teleports us home.
Ichigo: “WOW!”
She looks at me. I spread out on the bed. She noticed one of my tattoos.
Ichigo: “What’s Ka-le-b?”
Kumori: “Someone I love a lot. He’s one of my most important people.”
She looks at my ears, then back at hers.
Ichigo: “Why hasn’t Louie pierced your ears?”
Kumori: “Huh?...Oh…”
I rub my ears. Louie rubs behind them.
Louie: “Because she’s never asked me to.”
Kumori: “LOL…I wanted one of the two Earth Guardians to do it, Dova or the Wolf.”
Louie: “I know Wolf would like to.”
Kumori: “I know.”
Louie: “It’s okay with me.”
He lay me back down on the bed. He slowly kisses me on the neck.
Louie: “I’m the lucky one. I get to see you whenever I want to.”
Kumori: “Yea, that’s true.”
Louie hands me a cup of tea.
Louie: “Drink up.”
I drink it. It tastes like strawberry cream.
Louie: “What do you think about us having a baby?”
Kumori: “I’d like that.”
I sip the tea. I hear footsteps and a knock on the door followed by a loud banging.
Ryou: “Let us in, NOW!”
Louie pulls his katana out from under the bed, unlocking the door, and then slowly opening it.
Louie: “What do you want?”
Ryou: “For you to let me in.”
Louie: “No way in hell because there is the slightest chance that you could hurt someone in my family!”
Kumori: “Let them in.”
Moonshi lies on the bed, spreading out. She looks at Ryou in the doorway. She lays her head down. I put my hand on her belly, setting down the tea. Kemuri steps down out of Louie, setting his head under Moonshi.
Pudding walks in, sitting on the floor.
Ryou: “Why are you smiling?”
Kumori: “We are making this world better for these little childrens.”
Pudding: “Aw…”
Kumori: “Why are you all here and not attacking us?”
Ryou: “Because there was enough nobleness in what you did even, that it was so stupid.”
Kumori: “And you want something from us.”
Ryou: “Yes, Ichigo and then we’ll leave you alone.”
Kumori: “No! We don’t trade family!”
My eyes glow blue.
Kumori: “Uh…looks like our family’s about to grow.”
Moonshi’s eyes turn blue.
Moonshi: “Ah…um…”
I get a towel, placing it on the floor with a clean pair of trimmers and a rag with a bucket of water.
Ryou: “What’s going on?”
Pudding: “The babies are coming.”
Kemuri faints. Louie sits on the floor with me. Louie, baby?”
Kumori: “Already?!”
Louie: “No…help!”
Ryou: “Cover up Puddings eyes!”
Jin walks in with Kisshu.
Kisshu: “LOL…Dr. Jin to the rescue!”
Jin: “Let me take over this.”
I hold her down in my hand.
Jin sticks her with a needle.
Jin: “Yea there was no way in hell she was giving birth without drugs. Now push!”
Moonshi: “What do you think I’m doing, fool! Uh…Ah…OH MY GOD! Uh!!!”
Jin: “Keep going! We have a head!”
Moonshi: “Just get it out!”
Jin: “Come on. I’m just trying to be supportive.”
Kemuri: “Baby, hang in there and don’t break my tail.”
Moonshi: “Darn you! AH!”
Jin: “We have us a baby boy!”
He cleans him off. I hold him.
I had him to Moonshi.
Kumori: “Aw…he’s so cute!”
Moonshi: “He’s a painful little treasure.”
Jin: “Aw…now we just have to wait for baby number two.”
Moonshi: “Oh…crap…GOD!”
I hold the baby, showing him to Louie, Kisshu, Ichigo, Ryou and the others.
Ichigo: “Ah…so cute!”
Moonshi: “Um…uh…the other’s coming, Jin! Get your a** back over here, now!”
Jin rushes over.
Jin; “Now, deep breaths…be calm.”
Moonshi: “No way in hell! AH!”
Jin: “It’s coming. There’s the head. A little more, now…it’s a baby girl!”
He cleans her up. I hand her to Moonshi.
Moonshi: “She’s so pretty! And tell me that the pain has stopped…”
Jin: “It has…LOL…until next time you get pregnant.”
Moonshi: “Bad doctor!”
Pudding: “Your babies are so cute!”
Kemuri: “Rest my fallen Angel…just rest.”
The babies start to feed.
Louie: “So cute!”
Ichigo: “I want to have kids some day, too!”
Kisshu: “Aw…you have beautiful babies!”
Ichigo: “Aw…yea!”
Masaya: “Sorry to be rude, but back to our settlement.”
Kumori: “What?...We didn’t agree to it…Ichigo is family, so we’ll protect her, no matter what!”
Masaya: “How is this protecting?”
Kumori: “Keeping her where she’s loved and away from you!”
Masaya: “But she was loved with us.”
Kumori: “Well that’s good because otherwise I’d have to kill you! Now please leave. You are bothering our family. Pudding, Lettuce and Keichiro are fine, but you two and Mint, go!”
They all walk out…
