It must have all been just a dream..... Shina thought sadly, but half with relief. Even if she really hadn't seen Zakuro Fujiwara in person, at least there hadn't been any earthquake!

"Okay, let's go home, Reuran...."

Flash-forward!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Friday morning Cafe Mew Mew!!

To celebrate the end of a great week, AND the vanquishing of another Kirema Anima, the MewMews are having a Party before the customers come!!

Ichigo ran around the Cafe, frantically stringing up colored streamers. "C'mon Mint, help me put these up! We have to get this done before Ryou comes back!"

Mint yawned and sipped her tea, ignoring Ichigo.

Pudding jumped up and down on the long table set up it the center of the room. "Yay! This is the perfect surprise!"

Mint glanced over. "Pudding, don't jump on the table like that!"

Lettuce came out of the kitchen, covered in flour, with Zakuro at her side, carrying a cake they just finished frosting. Lettuce sighed.

"Poor Ryou. . .He really needs a break. . . .Pudding, NO!"

Pudding had just slipped on a napkin and flew off the table, sending plates and silverware flying everywhere.

Lettuce sighed again and started to pick up plastic forks. "At least they were PAPER plates..."

"Wha- WHOA!!!!! Watch ouuuut!! Acrobat coming throoooough!!" Pudding slid across the floor and banged right into Lettuce, sending them both crashing into the wall.

Ichigo laughed and ran over to help Lettuce up. "You two make the perfect pair!"

Lettuce giggled a bit, embarrassed. "Heh, I guess...."

Pudding picked up some spoons and starts playing. "Look, I can fit two on my nose and two on my ears and balance more on my fingers!!"

"PUDDING!!"
