Galaxy Mew Mew is an AU story created by Annika, and is one of her first TMM fanon works. It's set in space, on colony ships that humans have fled to since Chimera Anima overtook their planet. The Galaxy Mews are a team of Mews created to combat these creatures, but amidst their fight, they soon learn of a greater threat that awaits them...

Plot

An Overrun Earth

In the near future, hordes of small parasitic jellyfish creatures that infect living hosts to transform them into monsters had been released throughout the world. This resulted in the Earth being overrun by what became known as Chimera Anima. While the infections began in a small area, the creatures soon started to rapidly pop up all over the globe, and nobody knew exactly how to stop them or where they were even coming from. The jellyfish-like creatures infected hosts so quickly that nobody could successfully capture any of them to study, and samples from the already-infected Chimera Anima were too risky to obtain.

The Rush

A man named Akio started working on a project that would transform five people into biological super-weapons. The aim was to infuse and enhance these human bodies with animal DNA and other elements from the world around them in order to boost their strength enough to fight against the Chimera Anima. He'd hoped to complete the project in time to save the Earth, but was unfortunately unable to do so.
Because the need for defenses against the Chimera Anima was so high, the urgency for the Mew project's completion was too. With so much pressure and not enough time, Akio failed to deliver what he promised, and world's governing powers that met repeatedly and made plans while he worked had to implement a backup plan of theirs. Colony ships had been built at the same time that Akio had worked on his project, created to allow the human race to survive outside of their planet, far from the creatures that overran it. People were schedule to board ships at a specific time, but as the Chimera Anima's population grew wildly, things got dire enough to where worldwide evacuations had to occur ahead of schedule. With so many Chimera Anima running free and rampant, humans had no way to stop them anymore. With failing weapon defenses leaving few options left, the humans fled their planet in the colony ships in an event known as the Rush.
Each colony allowed only a certain number of people on board, excluding scientists and world leaders who were guaranteed a safe passage. So, not everyone was able to escape—families were separated because of massive crowds, people were getting hurt and left behind, and others were just not physically able to make it onto the ships in time. Anyone who had escaped, especially with all their loved ones intact, was considered lucky. Even then, many people suffered injuries due to the Rush, and because they were unaccustomed to suddenly being thrust into space under questionable conditions or were weak to begin with, not everyone survived on the ships, and populations dwindled quickly for the first year or so.

The Galactic Mew Project

Akio was considered lucky, not only because he was deemed important enough to be boarded on the ship before anyone else, but because he managed to escape Earth unscathed. He did, unfortunately, only manage to escape with whatever research and essentials he could, and was forced to leave everything else behind. As such, his Galactic Mew Project had to be reconstructed almost completely from memory while aboard his colony. Akio had been granted permission by his colony captain, several head scientists, and other important figureheads to initiate the Mew Project as soon as he could and, in case of actual success, find five willing subjects to partake in the project. Reconstructing the Galactic Mew Project took Akio four years, but with luck and the support of others, he managed to complete it as promised.
Akio had wanted to use earthen elements for his project, but because he had to draw from the vast of space around him, subjects that he chose then had to be transformed via infusion of random animal DNA and galactic elements instead. Akio meant to have a way to reverse this process of transformation, but he had little time to create it with the enormous pressure he was under to finish the project as soon as possible. So, while he eventually finished the project, he did not have a way to reverse its effects on a person. He instead opted to work on a reversal method while the Mew team he gathered worked to clear the Chimera Anima threat. Despite the project's single flaw, Akio felt it ready to be tested and was given the green light to begin recruiting team members.

Characters

Main

The Galaxy Mews[]

  • Niji Harada: A feisty but kindhearted young Japanese woman who is living a rough life in her colony before she is approached by Akio. She is the first to become a Galaxy Mew, and is known as Mew Spectral Galaxy. She has the DNA of a White Wolf.
  • Hikari Yamamoto: A kindhearted, but terribly shy and timid young Japanese girl. She lived alone with her grandmother after The Rush, but Hikari lost her not long into their time on the ship. She was then "adopted' by someone who gave her a job and served as a father figure to her. She is the second Galaxy Mew, known as Mew Radiant Sun. She has the DNA of a Black Cat.
  • Chrysalis Müller: The third Galaxy Mew, a hardheaded German girl but one loyal to her friends. She lost her sight during The Rush, and lack of proper equipment at the time prevented her from getting the surgery she needed to get it back until years later. She is awfully headstrong, but brave and loyal. Her alias is Mew Lunar Dream. She has the DNA of a White-Tailed Ptarmigan.
  • Hotaru Kojima: The fourth Galaxy Mew, a bubbly, energetic prankster who has fun with everything she does. She is sometimes a tad excessive with her energy and can be a bit immature, but she usually means well and can focus when she has to. Her alias is Mew Onyx Storm. She has the DNA of a Yellow-Cheeked Gibbon.
  • Nexus: A young alien girl harnessing an immense amount of energy. Her people were destroyed by an enemy race, and after fleeing her planet, she wound up on Earth and met the Galaxy Mews. She is the fifth and final member of the team, known as Mew Nebula.

Scientists[]

  • Akio Fujioka: A scientist and the creator of the Galactic Mew Project. He trains and guides the Galaxy Mews on their missions. He acts as the girls' mentor, but has a rather close friendship with them too.
  • Alexander Knudsen: A chemist that carries out research aboard the colony. He's an oddly-natured but close personal friend of Akio (and later, Niji). He supported and aided Akio during a majority of the Galactic Mew Project's recreation on the colony.

Villains[]

  • Ehne: The main Antagonist of Galaxy Mew Mew—a gelatinous alien lifeform known as an Ajra who has created a subspecies of parasitic beings that essentially become Chimera Anima.


Supporting

Ecots[]

  • Ze'ena: The late queen of Ecoria, and Nexus' aunt. A kind and gentle spirit who was dedicated to the well-being of her people.
  • Cale: A young, intelligent male Ecorian who served Queen Ze'ena and was romantically involved with Nexus.
  • Aeie: A carefree, spirited princess and late cousin of Nexus, with whom she had spent most of her time.
  • Qis: Nexus' late father, a proud soldier for his people. Though kind, he tended to be extremely serious and formal about most things.

Humans[]

  • James Garrison: A close friend of Niji's who acts as a father figure to her and initially works alongside her in the boiler rooms before she becomes a Mew.
  • Emi Yamamoto: The late grandmother of Hikari. She helped take care of Hikari up until a few years before the main story.
  • Soren: A young man who acts as a father figure to Hikari. He runs a shop with her, where she acts as an assistant to him before she becomes a Mew.
  • Jason Müller: Chrysalis' older brother. He's overprotective of his younger sister at times, but also tries to be understanding of Chrysalis' need for independence.
  • Arisu Kojima: Hotaru's older sister. Much like Jason, she is overprotective of her little sister. She has a very cautious and nervous personality, though takes charge as the older sibling and is very responsible.
