Chapter 1

Ryou was sitting up in his room night thinking about the mew mew project, thinking about all the girls and just how many mew mews are actually out there.

It had started with just five; Ichigo, Mint, Lettuce, Pudding and Zakuro. And then Ichigo left to go with what's his face for a year and while she was gone Berry was found.

Now in the last year or less there have been four new mew mews found; Nashi and her younger sister Momoko from England, Kiwi from Ichigo's neighborhood, and Ayame from Hawaii.

Kiwi is sixteen and was the first one to be found; Ichigo found her struggling with becoming a mew mew in the art room at her school at the end of the day.

Once she figured out there were more out there like her, Kiwi quickly accepted the task and her role as a mew mew; she loved it.

Kiwi is the Great Panda Bear. In her normal form Kiwi has shoulder length brown hair with green highlights and hazel eyes. In her mew mew form has green hair with brown highlights and dark green eyes with panda ears and stubby tail. The outfit she wears is black and white Capri pants and a halter top with a black and white choker and a pair of black and white sneakers.

She's not very bright; like Ichigo she's a bit ditzy and because of that she was held back a year; she aspires to be an artist.

Ryou and Keiichiro had found Ayame on a trip to Hawaii for some business trip or something; she at the time was seventeen, homeless and scared. Because she was so scared she had started causing a lot of trouble for people.

When they found her, Ryou had a difficult time getting her to come back with them. Keiichiro on the other hand got her to come with them easily.

Ayame is now eighteen, living with Keiichiro in their new apartment and is a great asset to the team. Zakuro even got a small modeling gig with her.

Ayame is the Little Brown Bat. In her normal form she has long orange hair just above her butt and green eyes. In her mew mew for she has long red hair and red eyes bat ears and wings. Her outfit is a red and brown mini skirt, tube top and thigh-high combat boots with a red choker.

Nashi and Momoko were found next; they are sisters who moved from England to Japan after their father died to live with their grandparents, his parents. They have the same father, but different mothers; Nashi's mother died in a drive by being in the wrong place at the wrong time and Momoko's mother died in childbirth. No one really knows how their father died…

Like Berry, Nashi and Momoko have two sets of DNA; Nashi is the White Fox and Prairie Dog and Momoko is the Fennec Fox and Prairie Dog.

Nashi is eighteen with shoulder length light blue hair and violet eyes in her normal form. When in her mew mew form her silver hair and white eyes with fox ears and a prairie dog tail. Her outfit is a silver short onsie with short sleeves and white short boots and a white choker.

Momoko is thirteen with light blue hair down to the middle of her back with orange hair in her normal for. In her mew mew form she has light pink eyes and white hair with prairie dog ears and a deer tale. Her outfit is a short light pink dress down to her knees and white knee high flat boots and a white choker.

Like Zakuro, Nashi wanted nothing to do with being a mew or the others to start with; she just wanted to be normal and watch over her sister. Nashi got her GED and desperately wants to be a chef. She is very protective of her little sister and when it comes to her she'll do anything to keep her safe.

Like Pudding Momoko was super excited to be a mew mew, but her sister did everything she could to keep them away from that kind of stuff. Momoko doesn't know what she wants to be when she grows up, but ever since she met Pudding she's taken a liking to circus performing and is actually pretty good at it; she also really likes digging. She also thinks that Nashi is too over protective.

Eventually both sisters joined the mew mews and absolutely love it; Momoko works in the dining area and Nashi works in the kitchen with Keiichiro and Ayame making pastries.

Back to Ryou:

It was a dark and stormy night when he heard the front doors of the café slam open and shut and then what sounded like tables being knocked over. He thought that maybe someone was trying to break in so he grabbed a baseball bat and headed downstairs.

Ryou was about ready to beat the crap out of whomever it was that was downstairs until he saw who it was…Ichigo; who looked like she had been crying and in some kind of trouble.

"Ichigo?" Ryou asked slowly as he walked down the stairs.

"Ryou…I'm sorry…I didn't mean to wake you or anything. I just needed a place to stay for an hour or so before going home." Ichigo sniffed through tears and hiccups.

"What happened? Ryou asked concerned as he knelt down by her.

"Masaya…" Ichigo started but couldn't continue.

"Oh Ichigo…you didn't get back together with that scum-bag did you?" Ryou asked as he rubbed her back.

"No… I was walking through the park late last night when I bumped into him. I tried to avoid him and just go home, but he stopped me saying how much I meant to him and that he wanted to apologize." Ichigo stated remembering what had happened then and why they had broken up in the first place.

3 Months Ago:

Ichigo had come bursting through the café doors ten minutes late with tears in her eyes.

"Late again Ichi…" Mint started but stopped when she saw the tears.

"Ichigo, what's wrong? Is everything ok?" Lettuce asked worried as the girls all gathered around.

"How was your date with Masaya?" Pudding asked causing Ichigo to burst out in tears

"Did he do something to do?" Berry asked sitting next to her best friend.

"He cheated on me with some girl he brought back with him from England. She has pretty blue hair and purple eyes. When I confronted him he said that he needed someone who was smart and I didn't cut it in that department. He also she was way hotter than me and was more interesting." Ichigo sobbed even harder as she changed into her work uniform.

"Is that a bruise?" Zakuro asked narrowing her eyes at Ichigo's shoulders.

"Yes…I smacked him across the face and called him a two faced cheating jerk and then she got angry and grabbed me by the shoulders and slammed me to the ground. After that they ran away to I don't know where." Ichigo explained rubbing her shoulders.

"How could he do that? And that girl! She'll pay if I ever find her!" Momoko exclaimed bouncing from foot to foot with Pudding.

Nashi, Kiwi and Ayame we out and would be in later.

"What should we do?" Pudding asked curiously.

"What can we do?" Lettuce asked worried.

"There really isn't anything we can do…not unless he tries something again. And as long as Ichigo is done with his ass nothing should need to be done." Zakuro said simply putting a hand on Ichigo's shoulder and then headed out…Mint, Berry Pudding and Momoko right behind her. Lettuce stayed back just in case Ichigo needed help with anything.

"What's going on? Having a secret meeting in there?" Ryou and Keiichiro asked coming out sitting at some tables.

"No. Just talking to Ichigo, making sure she's ok." Zakuro and Berry said simply getting things ready while Mint sipped her tea.

"What's wrong with Ichigo?" Ryou asked raising any eyebrow. He could only imagine.

"Masaya broke up with her." Pudding started quickly.

"And then the girl he was cheating with grabbed her and then slammed her to the ground." Momoko finished quickly.

"What?" Keiichiro asked quietly.

"What the hell!" Ryou exclaimed a little loud.

"Shhh…she'll hear you." Zakuro said simply.

"I don't care! He was supposed to be her true love right. That shit just ain't right. Oh my god!" Ryou huffed as he marched upstairs to his room to fum.

"Poor Ichigo…" Keiichiro said going to the kitchen deciding to leave her alone and let her come to them when she's ready.

So one thing lead to another and not only did Kiwi, Ayame and Nashi find out, but so did the guys. We all know the girls told the guy of their choice…even if they're not dating yet.

Present Time:

"What happened Ichigo?" Ryou asked as he got her up to a chair and that's when Keiichiro came in baseball bat in hand.

"Oh, Ichigo, Ryou it's you two. What's going on?" Keiichiro asked setting the bat down.

"I don't know…something to do with ass-face." Ryou said and Keiichiro knew exactly who he was talking about.

"You're not getting back with him are you Ichigo. I mean if you are I'll support you." Keiichiro said simply sitting down.

"No, we're not getting back together…" Ichigo said simply.

"Oh thank god." Keiichiro breathed.

"So what happened?" Ryou asked again.

"Well I was in the park late last night headed home when I ran into him. I tried to just avoid him all together, but he grabbed my armed. He said he was very sorry and that he broke up with Peppermint and how much I meant to him. He said that he wanted to get back together, but I told him no and to go to hell and I yanked my arm away. But as I was walking away he grabbed me again and slammed me onto the ground…" Ichigo started but stopped and started to sob uncontrollably.

By this time Ryou and Keiichiro could only guess what happened.

"Ichigo…he didn't rape you did he?" Keiichiro asked gently while he and Ryou waited for an answer.

"…Yes…" Ichigo bawled causing Keiichiro go over and hug her. Ryou on the other hand was pacing around clenching and unclenching his hands.

'What the fuck! That motherfucker is dead the next time I see him!' Ryou thought angrily.

"Did you call the police?" Keiichiro asked concerned as Ryou continued to pace.

"No…somebody was walking through the park as well and called. And then they got him off of me." Ichigo said sniffling.

"Did he you know…cum inside you?" Keiichiro asked clearly embarrassed.

"No…but the police took me to the hospital just in case. Masaya's been arrested as far I know. After the hospital released me the police offered to drive me home. I declined…I couldn't go home, not right away. So I figured I'd come here for a little and hide in the dressing room. I didn't mean to wake either of you. I'm sorry." Ichigo said sniffling, looking down, starting to cry again.

"No, it's fine. It's a good thing you decided to come here. Why couldn't you go home right away if you don't mind my asking?" Keiichiro asked trying to sooth the young girl.

"My parents aren't home right now; they're on their anniversary honeymoon thing for five days. They've been gone for three…so two more days…I just didn't want to be home alone right away after that." Ichigo said calming down a little.

"Baka. You're always allowed here. No matter what time of day or night it is. It doesn't matter, especially in a time like this. If you feel safer you can stay here until your parents get back. We have the spare room." Ryou said calmly.

"Really? You mean it?" Ichigo asked shocked.

"Yes, of course he does. You and the other girls are always welcome here." Keiichiro said simply.

"Thanks a bunch." Ichigo said hugging both of them.

"Wait…Keiichiro what are you still doing here? Don't you have your own apartment now with Ayame now?" Ichigo asked confused.

"Because of the storm Ayame and I got stuck here." Keiichiro said truthfully.

"She's still sleeping? I'm shocked." Ryou said simply smirking evilly at Keiichiro.

"Oh shut up. We're not rabbits; we don't do it all the time. And yes, she's still sleeping; she can sleep through anything." Keiichiro said instantly regretting saying anything at all.

"Oh really…anything?" Ryou said in a childish tone.

"Shut up. Ichigo if you can find anything else to wear I'll wash your clothes in the morning. Now if you don't mind I'm going to bed to sleep. Actually sleep not what you're thinking. Goodnight." Keiichiro said walking away before Ryou could say anything else.

"Ok, well let's get you in something dry." Ryou said leading her upstairs.

About five minutes later Ryou found an old shirt and boxers for Ichigo.

"Here, these should fit you. They might be a little baggy, but they should do." Ryou said walking out of his room.

"Where are you going?" Ichigo asked curious.

"I'm going to get the spare room ready for you. Plus I don't think you want me in here while you get changed." Ryou said simply closing the door behind him as he left.

"Oh." Was all Ichigo said as she started stripping off her wet clothes and putting on what Ryou gave her. He was right, they were a bit baggy, but they fit.

"Are you decent? Can I come in?" Ryou asked knocking on the door.

When he didn't get an answer he opened the door slightly only to chuckle and lean against his door. There on his bed Ichigo was fast asleep.

Instead of picking her up and carrying her to the spare room and risking waking her he walked over and put her under the blankets. He then grabbed the picture of him, his parents and Keiichiro, walked out door, closing it behind him and headed to the spare room.

Once in there Ryou lie down on the bed and fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow, dreaming about killing that Masaya creep.

I hope you liked it.

will try to write soon.
