Mew Mew Power Part 1 - It Begins

I checked the time on my watch, 2pm. My parents didn't know school was out early, so I decided to go back. I'd never been back, not once. I took all the right buses and I got to that street. Hamilton Avenue. Six years its been. Six years since I was that 10 year old girl falling for that 10 year old boy. Elliot. Memories of him came rushing back. His cheesy grin, the way he was always nervous around me, always the kind of geek. He was so protective of me - got himself into trouble just to protect me- But then I remembered. All of it went away when...

I stopped in front of where my home should've been. It was rebuilt after the fire. I was so scared. And when Elliot got back with Wesley... It killed me to see him cry. We could've stayed. My mum was best friends with Marie (Elliot's Mum) ever since they had moved next door to us. It was completely different now. It was white instead of peach. I hated it. I ran all the way to the end of the street, tears streaming down my face. The old park where me and Elliot would often hang out. I looked at it. At least some things stay the same. I loved the huge field on the outside of the park. It was a huge circle. Wait, there is something there now. Bang in the middle of the park, there was a pink building. I started jogging towards it. I was only about 10 metres away. I stopped running so that I could see what it was. Hearts for windows! Wow this definitely has to be the girliest place I have ever been to. What is it?

I went right up to the entrance, it said 'closed'. I pushed the door open. Inside, everything was heart shaped! The chairs, napkins, frames... you name it they were hearts, except maybe the tables. Nobody came to yell at me, no alarms nothing. Just then a tall guy with long brown hair came up to me. "Um excuse me, but I am sorry to say that the Cafe is not currently open! I'm sure there was a sign on the door..." he said walking towards the door. "Oh sorry sir, but erm I was just wondering what this place was. I guess I must've missed the sign!" I quickly said. I am so glad I have dark skin now. Otherwise my cheeks would be blushing like crazy, I was telling such a whopper! "I'm sure that is impossible, since there is a huge sign on the front of the door, so do you mind getting out since we were actually quite busy." a voice from behind me said. I turned around, to see who said it. I couldn't see anyone. Who was speaking? My heart was pounding like crazy! I ran out the door without once looking back.

The morning after the next I knew I had to go back. I went down the stairs and had my breakfast. "Mum, I'm going out with my mates later, k? We are gonna have lunch at this new caff that opened and hang out for a bit." I said to my mum who was eyeing me suspicously. "Are you sure it is just your 'mates' sweetheart? This is how it..." my mum began, though I cut in. "began with Annabelle. I know Mum. Even so it turned out quite well for her she went to Imperial so like yeah." My Mum raised her eyebrows. "It doesn't mean that I am, though Mum!" I hastened to reassure her. Why did everyone think I was just like my sister? I grabbed my bag and my scarf and headed out the house.

I arrived in front of the Cafe. This time it said open. There was only about 5 customers in there. I grabbed the handle and went inside. I sat at a table on my own. I grabbed a menu and looked through. There wasn't any proper meals, just drinks and desert. Nobody came to take my order. I stood up, there was a sign that said toilets and was pointing to the left. I walked over. There was a long corridor. I walked down it. One of the doors was slightly ajar. I looked at the sign. Nothing to do with toilets. I peeped inside and listened hard. "Look, we've been at this project for 5 almost 6 years! I am not going to give up just because I can't find the first member! We just need to keep our eyes peeled. We can find her, OK?!" one of them screamed. They were both men for definite. I could only see one person, though. He was the same guy I saw yesterday and it wasn't him that was talking. I pushed the door a little bit. The door (Clearly hated me) gave the biggest creak and before I could stop it, opened wide enough for both men to see me. "Oh not you again! What do you want?" I could see him clearly now. He looked exactly like him! He looked exactly like Elliot! Well he was lots taller and he was way hotter! I grinned. This was Elliot for sure. I would know who he was in my sleep. "Elliot? Elliot Grant?" I asked. "Uhh how do you" Elliot began. The brown haired guy scraped in. "I knew it! I knew when I saw you yesterday! But he didn't believe me! He didn't get to see your face properly but I did, so I know. It's Elizabeth isn't it?" he said. And that is when I realised. This was Wesley and Elliot. "OMG! I can't believe it. After all this time..." I threw myself at Elliot and hugged him like crazy. "Get off of me you freak." Elliot said. I looked up at him. "Who do you think you are? Just walk in here and throw yourself at me like that? I don't even know you. Get out of here. What do you think you are doing anyway?" This blonde haired, blue eyed guy was giving me the weirdest look on the planet. I honestly felt like throwing up. "Elliot, but..." I started. "Just shut up, ok? I think you've embarassed yourself enough. Don't come back without proof that you are actually MY Elizabeth!" His words stung. The only nice thing he had said to me that entire timr was 'MY Elizabeth' and he probably didn't even mean it. What kind of boy doesn't recognise his childhood sweetheart? I remembered something then. Something only Elliot and I know. " I will prove that I am Elizabeth." I said removing my shoe. "But I'm telling you now. I will show you the proof, then I will leave." I showed him my foot. The mark I had since Elliot first moved next door. I always told him that my body was just telling me that I should marry him that's why I only got it when he moved next door. I loved that mark for that reason only. Elliot breathed in so much air it was a wonder that there was actually any left for the rest of us to breath. I slipped on my flats and walked towards the door. "Elizabeth..." Elliot said. "Save it. I knew who you were since the minute I saw you. You didn't even know that I existed till I showed you the 'proof' you needed." I was ready for a long rant. "I don't want to save anything. I just wanted to tell you that, that mark doesn't symbolise our love but it is a Mew Mark"

I sat down on the chair. " A what mark?" I asked. "A Mew Mark. You know how before my mum and dad died, they just told you and your family that my father was jjust doing some random research." Elliot started. "Shut up, Elliot. I know this stuff. I read one of his files and it took me ages to understand what it meant but I get it now. So save me a headache and move on from that!" I cried.
"Fine. Well after the fire and you guys rehoused. Wesley and I carried on with my dads research. We know how to stop the Cyniclons! We just need 5 supernatural girls who have the correct DNA to match the 5 Red Data Animals we picke out." He said. Oh wait, he couldn't be hinting something could he?! "And before you say it you are not a Mew. You have the right DNA but it won't set with you. Dad tested it out on you when you first came round. He said that your instincts haven't awoken yet and will only reach the highest level when you are 16 years old." he said. I could've cried. But still I was 16 in December. Only 4 months to go! " You can help us with the research until then. We need you to find the Mews and take care of the Cafe until we find more staff. So until then you are going to be a waitress here." he said. Wesley handed me a box. "Put that on. You are the first employee. We are going with hair colour for the uniforms so good luck! Changing rooms are opposite." I walked out smiling as my gratitude.

I opened the door with 'Locker Room' printed on the front. There were six lockers, each with a different colour as the border and a lighter shade of that colour as the actual locker. The black framed one had my name and on it with 3 boxes underneath. I got changed into my uniform and put my clothes inside the locker. I got out my phone. It was almost 10am. I groaned. I came out the doorand went into the 'Main Room' "Head to the dininig room Elizabeth. Take peoples orders then come and tell me and Elliot. We'll be in the kitchen!" Wesley said. "K, thanks." I said and headed to the dining room. There were about 50 people inside! I almost passed out. This is going to be a long day, I thought. After all the customers were gone and it was just me, Elliot and Wesley left, it was almost 9pm! "Soz guys! I'd love to stay and chat but my Mum is going to kill me!" I ran into too hte locker room and pulled on my clothes. I ran out. " I'll be back tomorrow guys see ya!" I yelled running.

I got home at about ten. I opened the door and went as quietly as I could. "Do Not take another step young lady" BUSTED! I turned around to see my mums angry face looking back. "Just going out with your friends, eh? Do you actually expect me to believe that? I want the truth and only the truth. Where have you been?!" My mum looked at me interrogatingly."Mum, well we went to the Cafe and well they umm didn't have any waiters or anything. So they asked if they could hire us andmy friends were like no cos they didn't want to get their hands dirty but I was like sure so they hired me. And I had to start working straight away and..." My mum didn't look like she believed me. Most of it WAS the truth so I don't know what her problem was. "Well I will be coming to see you in action. This better be the truth for your sake. Now get to bed! First day of school tomorrow!" My mum reminded me. Oh poo I forgot! First day in Year 11! Sweet 16 this year! I bounded up the stairs, ran into my room, jumped into bed and shut my eyes tight.
