Description
Mew Mew Power Part 6- ArgumentsI hate arguments. I hate being in arguments and I hate having them. Especially when it's between two people that you really care about, and you're forced to choose between them. For example: Your two best friends, your brother and sister, your cousins, a boyfriend and his girl. But the one I hate the most, has to be Parents. I HATE seeing my parents argue. My parents don't argue like normal parents though. Because I doubt that other people’s parents whack each other and leave bruises and everything. There have been so many occasions when I've had to call my aunt to stop the fight. One time it was so bad that my Aunt just took Mum, Anna and me out of the house. I've seen my parents yell and slap each other practically from the day I was born. I've seen them argue so many times that I've decided that I'm never getting married. I like kids so I'll adopt a few. Then I'll have loads and loads of pets. Because you can never argue with an animal. Even though us humans are animals.
"Hey Liz! Ready to go shopping today?" Abigail asked me. "Ooooo! I saw this cute mermaid dress when I was window-shopping last week! We can buy the same dress in different colours for all of us. We can where it to prom!" Liv said running to Abi and I at the bus stop. I looked at her. "Olivia, fist of all Prom is miles away and second of all, where is Emma?!" I asked. "She said she'd be like five minutes late cos there was some History test yesterday." Abi said. "YESTERDAY?!" Liv exclaimed. Clutching her ear Abi replied, "Duh! She checks every single textbook she owns to see if she answered all the questions right!" Just then Emma came running, clutching a bag to her side. "Sorry guys! But hey, at least we didn't miss the bus!" she cried jumping in as the bus came to a halt. We got out at Kingston High Street. We went round all the stores. I bought this cute little pendant necklace for Mum and I bought Dad a bunch of colourful ties (Since he only likes to wear dull and bleak colours) and I got Anna a rainbow set of nail polish. I bought myself chocolate, books, black nail polish, this white miniskirt, a white tank top and a black hat. Abi, Liv, Emma and I modelled to each other the clothes we'd bought. We went out to Nandos to have lunch, and then went back. "Hey, Liz you know how you said you worked at this Cafe?" I nodded at them. "Well, we wanna see you in action! So you're taking us there!" all three of them looked at me pleadingly. "Uhh guys. Did you forget that I took a day off, so that I could go shopping with you nutters. Anyway I couldn't go because I need to drop this stuff off!" I cried. I can't believe I'm actually friends with these guys. "How many people work at the Cafe?" Liv asked me. "Umm 3 other girls. Although one of them acts like a customer herself! She doesn't work at all..." I realized I was chucking myself at them. I just gave them and myself a good reason to go work at the Caff. We arrived in front of Cafe Mew Mew lumbered with bags and exhausted with our walk. I pushed open the door with my foot and walked inside. "Well girls, take a seat I'll be right back. Corina was at her usual table and I saw that Bridget had settled in perfectly. I swanned in unnoticed and went over to the locker rooms. I pulled the door open. Elliot and Zoey were sitting on the couch together. They both bounded up off the seat. "Li- Liz, I thought it was your day off?!" Zoey asked blushing sheepishly. "Err my friends wanted to see me in action so they convinced me to come." I went over to my locker and dumped my shopping stuff in there "Excuse me Elliot but ermm..." I didn't need to finish the sentence because I was indicating that I was about to get changed. He understood and left the room, Zoey following after him. I know this sounds weird but just before they sprang apart I swear I saw them holding hands! I can see it so clearly. Elliot's hand clasping Zoey's thin little fingers. The thought made me want to gag. Who'd want to fall in love with Elliot? Well other than me! I ran out and the first order I took was my friends. "OMG! Elizabeth your outfit is sooo sheek! This place is sooo cute as well! It's like hearts and pink everywhere! I mean even the windows are heart shaped! I swear you said this place was owned by men?!" Liv shrieked. "Liv shut up! The place is owned by men, ok? So calm down. Whaddya want?" I said swatting her with my little pad. "Well we'd like the chocolate gateau with 4 choc shakes and four spoons please!" Abigail said. I wrote it down and sent the order to Wesley. He already had a chocolate gateau from earlier and he made the milkshakes in minutes. I took them out in two trays. "Here you are girlies!" I said placing the cake and the shakes on the table. Just then Emma grabbed my arm and pushed me into the chair. "Since you weren't meant to work today, I'm sure you’re allowed a few minutes to enjoy luxuries with your mates!" Emma said handing me a shake and a spoon to eat my quarter of the cake. "So that's why we didn't have desert!" I said smiling at them. You gotta love life when you have awesome friends like these! Bridget came along to serve the next customer. She had 6 cups of boiling tea on one tray. I tucked my chair in, to help Bridget get passed easier. It was a bad move. Bridge tripped up and poured scalding tea all over me, Abigail, Olivia and Emma. "What is your problem? Can't you see? I think you need to get your eyes checked hun!" Abi screamed at Bridget. I got up and saw that we had a few burns here and there but nothing I couldn't manage. Corina walked over and said, "Well excuse me! Bridget didn't do anything wrong. She didn't purposely come over and pour the tea all over you! Get over yourself!" Corina was sticking up for BRIDGET?! Wow she must be nicer than I thought. Abi, Live and Emma, being my bestiez and all, weren't gonna take this well. Abi got up and slapped Corina across the face. "Why you little!" Corina shouted. Which was quite ironic considering the fact that she was almost 4 years younger than us and quite short. "We are older than you! Don't call us little! You brat." Liv shouted. Come on guys lets go. I don't want to waste my breath speaking to this lot." Emma stood up and walked off, stopping and waiting for the rest of us at the entrance. "Beth is not going anywhere! She is gonna stay here with us!" Zoey yelled. "Yeah, dream on kid! Come on Liz." Abi said. Corina, Bridget and Zoey all looked at me, willing me to stay with them. Abi, Liv and Emma were looking at me expectantly. I was torn between the two. This is why I hate arguments. "I am going HOME." I said and pushed passed all six of them.
I went home and sat down. Mum was out because they'd had another fight. I just couldn't be bothered now. I've put up with this crap all my life. I don't want to know now. I got out the laptop to see if I could Skype with Anna, when Dad came and sat next to me. He turned on the news and it showed Australia's weather before it showed ours. "It's soo hot there!" I couldn't help exclaiming. Dad turned and looked at me with a serious face on. I looked at him. "When you and Anna are older try and live in the same country. Stick together. It would be even better if you were only a few streets away from each other." Dad said to me. "Dad, do you miss your brother?" I asked. Suddenly there were tears in his eyes. "Your Mum has got her two sisters and her brother right next to her. They all live in the same neighbourhood as well. But me, I have nobody. My Mum is dead. My dad and brother are practically on the other side of the planet." since I was taller than my father. I held him while he cried. "Do you know something, Beth? Ever since you were little I could see that you were the pillar of this family. You were always happy. Even when you were sad you'd smile your face off. You were so encouraging to your sister, when she was taking her GCSE's and there were huge problems here practically every day. You acted like every day you lived was your last. You always kept the family happy. In your presence everyone wore a smile across their faces. You never let your parents fights get in the way of your happiness and success. That is why I've decided to be a better person. I'm going to stop being suspicious over your Mum and I'll slowly stop drinking too. I don't want what happened to your sister, throughout her Year 11, to happen to you." Dad was sobbing now. I was crying too. We both hugged each other and were crying until Mum came home. "Beth, what are you doing here?" she asked. "I'm hanging out with Dad. And you can't tell me to go upstairs because it's my life, my choice." Mum started crying. "Don't start the waterworks Mum." I said. She came to Dad. I thought she was going to slap him so I stood up, in my attempt to stop her. But she didn't slap him. She hugged him. They were both hugging and crying. Then Mum said "I hate fighting." to which Dad replied "So do I. So do I."
I took the laptop upstairs with me and went on Skype, to video call Anna. She was already online so it was pips to start the call. "Hey Annabelle! Went shopping today and I bought you some nail polish!" I waved it in front of the camera. "How are Mum and Dad? They're not still fighting are they? Post the polish to this place man. I wanna try it out!" Should I tell her? Well they aren't really fighting now. "Mum and Dad are fine. Dad said he won't drink no more."
"Now where have I heard that before??" she asked. We laughed and talked for a bit more. That's when I first saw it. A floating guy with green hair and a wavy top. He had long socks and brown shoes. He had pointy ears too. He winked at me and pulled out an infuser. "Anna! Watch out!" I screamed. She turned around and screeched. He stuck out his hand and began to suck out her soul. "Anna! No! Who are you? Leave my sister alone, you freak!" I screeched. Anna went super pale and fell to the ground. He joint Anna's soul and the infuser. I had to ring the girls. I yanked out my mobile and called Bridget. However Corina was the one who picked up. "What do YOU want?" she asked me. "Look, Corina. I'm soo sorry about what happened at lunch. But you gotta help me. One of the Cynoclones just sucked my sister's soul!" I shouted into the phone. I looked into the webcam to see what the predasite looked like. It was a human sized predasite but this one had the structure of a bug. It could fly and it had wings. It had a brown body and four hands with two legs. "Corina? Please." I begged to her then I put the phone down. Suddenly the guy started talking to me. "Hey there, sugar. The name's Dren. Ask your friend if she remembers me. Oh and your sister's gonna take a trip to your house." for a moment I couldn't breathe properly. I looked at the screen, Dren, the predasite and my sister disappeared. My heart started beating super fast. "No point looking there, if we're here!" I turned round and saw him standing there. Well floating there really. I thought quickly. I can't let Mum and Dad see this! I opened my window and jumped out. Good thing I do ballet. I began to run down the street. There was a park, not the one where the Cafe is, nobody goes there very much. Dren was flying above me. He began to throw these bombs at me. I dodged them, with each dodge I ran faster. I felt something vibrate on my leg. I pulled out my phone and checked the caller ID. It was Zoey. I picked up the phone. “Liz! Where are you? The monitor says that you’re on the move. BTW there is a predasite and cynoclone behind you. Tell Mini Mew ‘Webcam On.’ Cos the alien thingy is following you go to some place where there aren’t any people and meet us there. See ya.” She put the phone down. I looked at Mini Mew and said ‘Webcam On.’ His eyes joined together and I could see Elliot and Wesley inside. Wow can’t believe I didn’t notice that! “Liz, where are you headed? We need to tell the girls where you are.” Wesley said urgently. “Erm I’m at the park near my pl...” I couldn’t finish because, Elliot so rudely interrupted. “Watch Out!” he shouted. I turned round to see Dren holding an infuser. For a second I thought he was going to infuse ME. Then he threw it down at me. It exploded in front of me throwing me about 5 feet backwards. This was the bombs. “Liz!” Wesley shouted into the webcam. I got up. I have to stay strong till the girls get here. Dren threw five more. I jumped up into the air and did a somersault, landing on my feet. Good thing I do ballet. “Bug, attack!” Dren shouted. The bug began to throw down wings. It was still flying in the air and new wings were being thrown down at me. I tripped up just as one of them was coming right at me. I saw my entire life flash before me. I hugged myself on the ground, waiting for the embrace. Nothing happened. I looked up and saw this barrier around me. I saw an arrow shoot threw the air. The Mews! Bridget came running toward me. “Liz are you ok?” she asked me. I nodded then jumped up. I had to help in this battle. “Bridget, Corina attack at the same time. Zoey go when I tell you to!” All three of them nodded at the same time. “Hard Arrow!” Corina shouted. “Tidal Wave Attack!” Bridget yelled. Their attacks flew across the air. “Zoey NOW!” I yelled over the commotion. “Strawberry Bell. Full Power!” she screamed. The predasite died down and Anna’s spirit and the infuser was the only thing left. “You got lucky this time, but I’ll be back kitty cat!” he said and winked at Zoey. We all looked at Zoey as Mini Mew ate the infuser. “I saw him this morning. He flew down from this building and stole my first kiss.” She said in this small voice. I picked up Annabelle’s soul and went over to Zoey. “Honey, he just stole your first kiss. Be happy he didn’t steal your soul,” I said “I gotta go and give this back to Belle. See you guys later. And sorry about before.” I left them to it and started walking back to my home. I came in through the back so my parents wouldn’t notice I was gone. I went up to my room and shut the door behind me. I sat on the floor next to Belle and placed her soul above her. It fell back into place and she woke up. “OMD! What am I doing here? And who was that guy who killed me?” she asked. “Nobody killed you Anna. Otherwise you wouldn’t be talking to me right now. Oh and you said you wanted your prezzie. Here it is!” I said presenting it to her. She hugged me and said thanks. Then I got Mum and Dad’s gifts and went downstairs with Annabelle. They all hugged each other laughing and crying. Mum squashed me and kissed me for her gift and Dad pretend swatted me saying he is not dull and boring. Belle decided to stay in town for a bit because it was the weekend so there was no point in her going back if she could hang out at home till Monday. Hopefully Mum don’t tell her about Cafe Mew Mew and Anna won’t want to come there.
