Chapter Thirteen: Once More
"Thank you Tokyo!" Momo stepped off the stage from her most recent concert, this time she wasn't kidnapped. It's been almost a month since the fight with Deep Blue and just about everything returned to normal. The girls are still working at the café like before, Momo and Ryo still fight, and Momo's still waiting for Kish's return.
"Good thing nothing happened this time." Momo removed her costume and her normal clothes were underneath. "I was actually expecting another kidnapping." She started brushing her hair since it got a little messy while she was on stage.
"Hey Momo-chan!" Her manager burst through the doors to her dressing room. She got a bit scared.
"Don't do that!" Momo yelled getting ready to throw a baseball bat at him. "Did you ever learn to knock?"
"Sorry Momo, but I noticed that your vacation should be over." He pointed to a small calendar that he was holding. "You should probably start thinking about going back to America." Momo rolled her eyes.
"Sorry, no-can-do." She said spinning around in her chair. "Due to the surprise concerts I had to do, I'm not going anywhere for a little longer. Plus I'm terrible with goodbyes." She placed her hands behind her head and started swaying back and forth.
"But, I said that you'd be back in America last month but you said that you weren't done with your vacation." He said almost getting irritated.
"Well that's not MY problem." Momo said. "Look, if you have a problem with it then go be someone else's manager and I can stay here in Tokyo." She turned around to face her mirror as her manager walked out the door.
"BEEP Hello, HQ? She's going to be staying in Tokyo. Make sure you get here soon, I don't know how long I can keep this up…I understand. I'll keep her here till tomorrow."
Momo walked out the door to her dressing room and started down a long hallway to the main lobby. "I have to stay a little longer. I have faith that he'll come back." She opened the doors and there was a swarm of fans waiting for pictured and autographs. "Sorry folks, no time right now. I have to get somewhere." She made her way through and started running toward the sidewalk. She kept running till she reached Café Mew Mew. "Hello everyone!"
"Momo onee-san!" Pudding ran up to her and hugged her. "How did the show go?"
"It was OK." Momo answered. "But believe it or not, I was expecting being kidnapped like in every performance." She shrugged.
"Well at least you didn't have any complications this time." Mint said. "After all, we wouldn't want any problems."
"I guess you have a point there." Momo said.
"Besides, I'm sure that people will become afraid if you keep getting kidnapped." Lettuce added.
"Say, did Kish say when he was gonna be back?" Ichigo asked. "It's been almost a month." Momo looked at her feet and shook her head. "Oh, well I'm sure he'll be back soon."
"Yea, you're right." Momo smiled. The doors started to open and Masaya walked into the Café.
"Aoyama-kun!" Ichigo ran over to her boyfriend.
"Hey Ichigo." Masaya said with his usual smile. "Hello, Momo-san." Momo waved at him and smiled.
"Hey Masaya."
"You feeling OK?" He said and everyone noticed her eyes seemed a little bigger (uh oh, tear build up).
"Mm hm." Momo replied wiping her eyes. "I'm alright."
"Oh, Momo and Masaya are here." Keiichiro said from the kitchen. "We have a slow day today so I thought we could have some cake." Momo jerked her head around when she heard the word "cake". Suddenly a giant cake with strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, etc. were on top.
"NYA!" Momo ran over to the cake and her eyes started to sparkle.
"Looks like Momo has a thing for sweets." Mint said.
"LET'S HAVE CAKE!" Momo shouted.
---- ---- ---- ----
On Kish, Tart, and Pai's home planet, the Mew Aqua really did its job and the storms had ceased. "Well, that should do it." Tart said sprinkling one last bit of Mew Aqua.
"Our planet is safe at last." Pai added. Kish looked around and nodded in agreement of his two friends. He looked up at the sky and wondered if Momo was alright. Since it was night on their planet, he stared at the billions of stars that were in sight.
"Hey Kish." Tart nudged him and broke his thoughts. "Aren't you forgetting something? Your promise?"
"I didn't forget." He said walking away. "Now that our planet is as it should be, I can go get her." He disappeared leaving Pai and Tart alone.
"He never stops thinking about that girl, does he?" Pai asked.
"Nope. Their crazy about each other." Tart joked. "But still…"
---- ---- ---- ----
Back on Earth, it was the end of the day and Momo just got home from the café. "Ok, note to self: never eat too much cake in one sitting unless you're Pudding." She went to the kitchen and started making a smoothie.
"MOMO-CHAN!" Momo jumped when she heard her manager call her name and smoothie splattered everywhere.
"Yea?" She answered.
"I've decided to-" He just stopped when he saw her covered in smoothie and started to laugh. "Did you forget to put the top on again?"
"No I didn't." She said grabbing a towel. "Anyways, what were you saying?"
"You'll have to decide when to get back to America. It has to be soon though."
"Yea, I know." Momo said. "I'll figure something out." She put one hand behind her back and crossed her fingers.
"Great!" He left the kitchen and she was all alone. When he got into the hallway he took out his cell phone. "Hello? Yes…I see… You'll be here tomorrow?… Good… I'll keep her in the city." He hung up and started for his room.
"Well, looks like the smoothie will have to wait. I need a bath." Momo said walking into the bathroom. She slipped on a bathing suit (since her manager usually burst out of nowhere) and started running the water. She slipped into the water and started washing the juice off. "Man, if he doesn't scare me to death I don't know what will."
Masha popped out of nowhere. "Momo! Momo!" Momo jumped and water splashed everywhere.
"DAMN IT MASHA DON'T SCARE ME LIKE THAT!" Masha's alarm started going off. Momo stared at the little pink ball of fluff. "What is it?"
"Momo in danger! Momo in danger!"
"Huh?" Momo tilted her head to one side and gave Masha a strange look. "Um, what kind of danger?"
"Momo in danger! Momo in danger!"
Momo was starting to get aggravated and got out of the bath and dried off. She put her clothes back on and walked into her room. "Alright Masha. Tell me where the danger is." Masha lead her out of her room and into the hallway. They started toward her manager's room and saw him come out.
What the? Why would Masha lead me here? Momo though to herself. When he started in the opposite direction, Momo went up to the door of his room, which was open, and walked inside. The only thing inside was a desk, a laptop, and a dozen folders scattered everywhere.
"OK, this is creepy." She looked on top of one of the folders and saw a picture of her as Mew Peach. "Wha? How'd he get this?" She looked at the computer and saw there was a government logo on the desktop. "Hello." Masha started going through some of the folders while Momo looked at some of the things on the computer. A news article pulled up on the screen. "Hey…"
Daughter of famous movie star Emiko Williams and artist Travis Williams disappeared late last week. It was said that she had left in the middle of the night. No one has seen the young nine year old and authorities say they will do all they can to find the girl.
Masha pulled out a sheet of paper and carried it over to Momo. "Read! Read!" Momo took the piece of paper and started to read it. Most of it she read to herself till she got to:
Put in charge of finding Momo Williams who disappeared almost a year ago.
"Hold up, this means my manager is-"
"From the FBI?" Momo's leopard ears just shot out of her head as she heard her manager's voice from behind her. "That's right Miss Williams. I was hired by your parents to find you." Masha's alarm started sounding.
"Masha! Get the other mew mews." Momo explained.
"On the way! On the way!" Masha disappeared in a puff of smoke.
"You think your little friends can help you?" He asked. "Your parents and the army are on their way here, and should be here really soon." There was a giant boom outside and Momo's ears stood on end. "Oh yes, and there's a thunder storm outside so you can't escape." Momo was afraid of most loud noises so she would usually freeze up. He started to come at her but she leaped over him and ran out the door and into her room. She locked the door and ran to a window. She opened it up and it was down pouring outside. There was another roll of thunder and flash of lightning. Momo got scared but finally gained some courage. Her manager was able to get the door open. "Now Momo, lets not do anything stupid. Now be a good girl and come over here." He pulled out a gun and aimed it at her.
"NO!" She jumped from her window. He rushed over and Momo remembered she was on the tenth floor. She grabbed her pendant and started to transform. "MEW MEW PEACH! METAMORPHO-SIS!"
---- ---- ---- ----
The girls were still at Café Mew Mew but were starting to close up. "I hope Momo will be alright, she's terrified of lightning." Ichigo said.
"Momo onee-san is a strong girl! She'll pull through!" Pudding said joyfully. Ryo ran up from the computer room in a panic.
"Everyone! A mew mew's signal just came from the other side of Tokyo!" Everyone looked at him. "It came from Momo's place!" Shock overcame everyone.
"What do you mean?" Lettuce asked. Masha suddenly came out of nowhere.
"Momo in danger! Momo in danger!"
"So it's true." Zakuro said. "Where is she going?"
"Not sure." Ryo answered. "I'll keep an eye on her signal and report where she's headed. Till then, go find her!" Everyone ran towards the door and into the pouring rain.
"What could she be running from?" Keiichiro asked.
"I don't know, but it's not an alien."
---- ---- ---- ----
Momo, fully transformed, started running away from her house and into the city. "I won't let them catch me!" Another bolt of lighting was in the sky but she didn't have time to cover her ears.
"You better get here fast! She's on the run!"
She kept running through the streets not caring if anyone saw her. A helicopter appeared in the sky. Momo suddenly remembered that night. It was the same copter that took Kish away. She picked up the pace and tried to lose it but it was no use.
---- ---- ---- ----
Ryo and Keiichiro watched the monitor and kept their eyes on her signal. "There! That's where she's headed!" Ryo shouted.
"Girls, can you here me?" Keiichiro started contacting the girls.
"Keiichiro? Ryo?" Ichigo answered.
"Pudding is here!"
"Any news on Momo's location?" Zakuro asked.
"Yes. She's heading for Tokyo Tower." Ryo answered. "She's being chased by something. I can't really tell what it is though."
"Alright! We'll find her as soon as we can!" Ichigo said.
---- ---- ---- ----
When Momo reached the tower she was out of breath. The copter was about to land. "Oh no you don't! RIBBON PEACH TORNADO!" She shaked it a little bit but it continued to land. "Damn it!" She kept running but there were officers blocking her way.
"Put you hands in the air!" Everyone looked at Momo.
"Hey! Why are you aiming at that mew mew?" Cried someone from the crowd.
"Momo Williams, it's taken six long years to find you." Her eyes widened. How do they know it's me? "Put your hands in the air!"
"NO! RIBBON PEACH TORNADO!" She sent a tornado at the officers and knocked them over. She started towards the entrance to the tower but an officer from the copter shot her in her leg. She started to scream with pain.
"Don't shoot at her!" She turned her head and saw someone jump out. It was her mother. "Momo-chan!" She ran over to Momo and hugged her. "Momo-chan! Are you alright?"
"H-hai." Momo answered. Her father was the next to leave the copter.
"Emiko! Get away from her!" Her mother obeyed his orders and started to back away from Momo. There was a small girl standing behind her father probably about seven years old). "Kimi, that's your onee-san." Momo had a little sister.
"Onee-san?" Little Kimi repeated. She stared at Momo and hid behind her father.
"What do you want?" Momo said scornfully.
"We've come to take you home." Her father replied. Momo glared at him and tried to stay standing even though her leg was causing her pain.
"I'll never go back to that prison you call my home!" Her mother looed at her eyes and saw that they weren't the same as the little girl she knew years ago. "I'll never go back! All you'll do is keep me locked up in my room again! Never to meet new people, never to make friends! Look at me! This is me! If I stayed in that house any longer, I would have been dead by the time I was thirteen because of depression!" Her father started to get angry and walked over to her and slapped her across the face.
"You listen to me! You could have been dead at any time! You were sick! We protected you!"
"NO YOU DIDN'T!" She yelled back. "You said you were protecting me, but you were keeping me away from things that matter more!" Her father grew silent then took her arm.
"You're coming home!" Momo tried to pull away but her father's grip was too strong.
"RIBBON MINT ECHO!" Momo's ears perked up when she saw a Mint Echo hit a bunch of officers.
"MINT!" All five mew mews had made the scene. "Everyone! How did you find me?"
"Ryo onii-san told us." Pudding said. "Let go of Momo onee-san! RIBBON PUDDING RING INFERNO!" He let go of her arm to avoid getting him. Momo jumped out of the way but as she landed her leg started acting up. Ichigo ran to her aid.
"Ichigo-chan."
"Momo-chan, are you alright?" She looked at where she was shot. "Who did this?"
"One of them." She pointed to the officers near the copter. More of them started aiming at the mew mews.
"RIBBON STRAWBERRY SURPRISE!" Ichigo hit a large amount of them but not enough. Suddenly something started to fill the air.
"TEAR GAS!" Momo covered her mouth, nose and eyes. The others started falling to the ground coughing. When the gas cleared up, Momo was the only mew still standing. "ICHIGO! MINT! LETTUCE! PUDDING! ZAKURO!"
"Your friends can't help you." Her father said. Momo clenched her fists and started glowing. "Be careful! Get ready to fire!" Everyone took aim and prepared to shoot. "FIRE!" Dozens of shots were aimed at her and she couldn't dodge them. She closed her eyes awaiting her doom, but nothing happened.
"Did they start a party without me?" Her ears started twitching at the sound of a familiar voice. "I said I'd be back, Momo-chan."
"Kish!" Momo was happy to see him again. He had just protected her from the shots.
"You again!" Her father pointed at him. "Get away from her!"
"I don't think so." He said smirking. Momo was surrounded by a familiar light and started to transform. Everyone was in shock when she transformed again. "I like you in this outfit more than the mew mew one." Kish said half joking.
"I'm guessing it's a compliment?" Momo asked. She took out her sword and aimed it at the officers. "I left to find the one person in this world who ever helped me. When you took him from he, I would stop at nothing to find him!" Her eyes started glowing as she prepared an attack. "RIBBON INDIGO BLAST!" After the blast cleared, Her father, mother, and little sister were the only ones still standing (you know what I mean :P). "I won't waist my time with you." She transformed back to her normal self.
All the other mew mews got over the tear gas. "Kish, you came back!" Ichigo yelled.
"Kish onii-san!" Pudding said cheerfully.
"That's right. I said I'd be back."
"Why are you here?" Her mother asked.
"I came to pick up Momo-chan." Her father and mother were shocked; the mews already knew this would happen. "I promised that we'd go someplace where no one will trouble us ever again." He put one arm around her waist and pulled her closer.
"GET YOUR HANDS OFF HER!"
"Nope." He said smirking. Her father pulled out a gun and aimed it at them. Kish threw a dragon sword and it hit the gun out of his hand. "You ready to go?"
Momo made one quick nod. "I'm ready when you are." She looked at her father. "I don't have to take orders from you anymore."
"Momo onee-san!" Pudding ran over and hugged her. "Please say you'll come back." Everyone started walking toward them.
"I'll be back Pudding-chan." She made a joyful squeak and let go.
"We'll be waiting for you here." Ichigo said.
"Try not to take too long." Mint said.
"I can't promise that." Momo said smiling.
"Kish if you do anything to make her cry, you'll be sorry!" Ichigo said raiasing one of her fists to his face.
"Don't worry koneko-chan, I'll take good care of her." He replied.
"Let's go." Momo said leaning against his shoulder.
"OK. Hold on." He put his other hand on her waist and they teleported to his ship. The five mew mews looked at the sky and saw that the storm was disappearing. The sky started to clear up.
"We'll be waiting for her arrival." Zakuro said. "Till then, we'll wait for them."
Yup." Pudding answered.
