Sour Strawberries: Part 3

Stars shined high in the dark blue sky from the galaxy, and a young alien was looking from his balcony to the Earth. ‘I want to see her,’ the green haired boy whispered, while the picture from a red haired girl with sparkles in her grey eyes and a smile on her face appeared in front of the blue and green planet in front of his sight. He sighed, and then walked back into his room. ‘I must be crazy...’ he said to himself, while he fell on his bed. Months have passed after the last fight against their previous leader Deep Blue and even though the girl he loved had a relationship with another boy, he just couldn’ t get her out of his mind. He wondered how she was doing, now she didn’ t need to fight anymore against the three aliens who left the Earth with Mew Aqua in their hands so they could restore their planet. The soft smile on his face disappeared when he thought about the situation from their planet. Things were going good when they came back with the Mew Aqua, at least for a short time... New problems were showing up, and things seemed to be even more worse then before they began to fight against Tokyo Mew Mew. His amber coloured eyes were full with sorrow and anger. The sorrow was because he missed the girl who he gave his heart to, and that his people were suffering. The anger was coming from the fact that the red haired girl wasn’ t returning his love because of another boy was in her way, and also because he couldn’ t help his people even if he saw them suffering or dieing in front of his eyes. ‘If I could only see her one more time, I would give it up and let her live a peaceful live with that black haired nature-lover.’ he mumbled. Then he stood up and walked into the direction from the door. He leaved his room, and began to roam aimless through the hallway.

‘Kisshu.’ He turned around when he heard someone calling his name. It was Pai. The purple haired alien was standing in the door opening from the computer room and gave the younger alien a sign to follow him. Kisshu astonished entered the room, and stopped walking when he stood after his older brother. ‘Dos ta no?’ Kisshu asked, nervously looking at the back from the other alien. When he heard his voice a few seconds ago, Kisshu knew that he was going to tell something serious and most of the time it was bad news. ‘The walls that protect the city in the centre are slowly collapsing,’ he began. Kisshu breath caught in his throat when he heard the terrible news. ‘H- How...?’ he could only ask. His voice hoisted by the words that he just heard. ‘Holes are appearing by the low temperature and the strong snow that is quickly falling down.’ ‘Isn’ t there a way to stop it?’ Kisshu immediately asked after Pai spoke out his last word. His voice was trembling, and that was unusual for the always serious alien. ‘Yes. There is something we can do,’ Pai said. Kisshu was happy to hear that, but his happiness wasn’ t for long when he heard Pai continue. ‘Demo... The only way to save the people who are living behind those walls, is to get Mew Aqua.’ When Kisshu heard the news he could only stare at Pai’ s back, not able to get a single word over his lips. The green haired alien turned around and walked to the door. He needed some time for himself. ‘Kisshu. Where are you going?’ Pai asked, when he heard footsteps leaving the computer room. Without answering, Pai’ s younger brother disappeared in the darkness from the hallway...

He locked himself up in his room, and lay onto his bed watching at the ceiling. ‘Kisshu onii-chan?’ he heard a high voice, on the other side from the door. He realized it was Taruto, but he didn’ t need any company at this moment. The only thing he wanted was being alone for a long, long time... ‘Can I come in?’ Taruto asked. Kisshu heard the worried tone in his voice, but again he didn’ t gave an answer. Suddenly, a rippling in the air appeared and his younger brother stood next to him. ‘Idiot. What’ s the reason for locking up your door, when you know we can teleport?’ Taruto said, but then he noticed that the older alien was totally spaced out. ‘Hey... You alright?’ Taruto softly asked, touching Kisshu’ s shoulder. Kisshu nodded, but Taruto knew he was lying. He hoped that the next thing he would say cheer his companion a bit up. ‘Well... Are you coming, then?’ Taruto asked. ‘To where?’ Kisshu asked, actually not wanting to know the answer. ‘We’ re going to Earth for getting the Mew Aqua,’ Tartuto said. ‘...So we can see Ichigo and Pudding!’ Taruto continued when the green haired alien stayed silent. Kisshu blinked with his eyes, the information slowly processing. He got up, and sat on the edge from his bed, thinking. He could just go see Ichigo, without helping his brothers at the search for Mew Aqua. Satisfied with that idea, he stood up. ‘Let’ s go!’ he said. The brown haired alien smiled and teleported in front of his brother out of the room. “Koneko-chan. We’ ll meet again soon!” he thought, before he disappeared.
