Notes from the author: finally! My next chapter! I had some major writers block, but, I'm hoping I won't have that much trouble any more. Okay, this is going to get extremely confusing if I don't do something, so here's something to keep in mind for this chapter. If I use their untransformed names, I'm talking about the Mew Mews from the present/past. If I use their transformed names, then I'm talking about the Mew Mews future selves.

Chapter 8

Rescue

The Mew mews landed outside the old junior high. Ichigo was amazed at how ruined it was. One of the floors didn't exist, the windows were all broken, and the doors were literally in shreds. The entire building looked completely inhabitable. After the older mew mews finished arguing with their husbands for a quarter of an hour about why they couldn't come in, the mew mews of the past and future quietly entered the school building.

Masha led them, looking for its future half. It guided them out one side and in another. Finally, it turned and tweeted sadly.

"The other Masha must have broken down." Ichigo said, holding her hand out to Masha. It landed on her outstretched hand, but then flew onto Ichigo's shoulder.

"Let's check the roof first and work our way down." Mew Ichigo suggested.

Lettuce nodded. "That sounds like a good Idea."

The Mew Mews past and future got up to the roof, but there was no one there. Or so they thought.

"So, you've made it this far have you?" A sneering voice everyone could Identify as Dren sounded behind them.

"Where are the Mini Mews, Dren?" Ichigo shouted.

"I'll tell you, if you can beat all of them." At the end of his sentence, a ton of alien monsters burst from the doors leading up to the ceiling. He chuckled and teleported off.

Dren reappeared where some other Aliens were busy creating something obviously evil.

"I've bought us some more time." He reported.

"Good. We're almost done. Bring us one of the Mini Mews so we can make sure it works." Another Celayan answered.

"Got it." Dren said, He had a certain Mini Mew in mind for the test.

The Mew Mews fought against the seemingly endless hoard. Finally, they finished it off.

"He disappeared. Lets' keep on looking." Zakuro said as she pocketed her whip.

The Mew Mews had gotten all the way down to the place Masaya used to practice kendo before they encountered anything else. In the middle of the floor was a huge monster. Larger than anything they had encountered before.

"Spread out! Attack from all sides." Mew Ichigo ordered. They did not realize that Dren was floating right above them.

As the mew mews fired their attacks, the monster brought up a shield that looked a lot like Custards, and then sent a pink attack that looked somewhat like Raspberry's at the Mews in front of it.

"What's going on?" Ichigo asked, perplexed.

That's when Dren spoke. "I hope you'll have fun with this monster." He laughed. "You see, it's absorbed all of those little brats, the Mini Mews. I'd like to see you land a hit on him. And even if you do, it'll be the Mini Mews you'll hurt. So, who are you going to save, the earth, or your daughters?"

Authors note: Wheee! It's a cliff hanger! Now to drive you all insane because I don't come out with the next chapter fast enough. Smiles evily well, I'll try to come out with the next chapter soon. Until then, thanks for reading!
