Twelve

Ichigo, Kish, Ryo, Keiichirou, and the other mew mews stood their ground up against the aliens. They seemed to be unfazed. They don't really seem to care that they're up against like eight to two.

"Puny humans." Pai laughed.

"Kish-kun." Ichigo looked over at him.

"Come on, Ichigo." He smirked and jumped up towards Pai and Taruto. He slashed at Pai but he teleported before Kish could hit him. He teleported behind Kish and nailed him, with his elbow, in the back. He came falling down near Ichigo. He lifted the top part of his body, revealing scars and bruises on his cheeks and arms. He got back on his feet and acted like it was nothing. Next, Lettuce and Pudding prepared their attacks…

"RIBBON… LETTUCE RUSH!"

"RIBBON… PUDDING RING! INFERNO!" Lettuce's attack went rushing towards Pai and Pudding's, towards Taruto, they easily dodged it like it was nothing. Pai teleported behind Kish and knocked him in the back, causing him to fly forward. Taruto went behind Ichigo and threw his shocking weapon at her. Ichigo caught onto it and quickly moved, dodging the attack. Kish stood back up from Pai's attack. He tried to make himself seem as though he was unfazed. He brought his swords back up and glared at Pai.

"What are you going to do, Kish? You have no one to back you up. No one here cares about you… If you were to give us the manual, however, we could be a team again." Pai said, with crossed arms, with his fan still at hand. Kish pushed his eyebrows together, staring at Pai.

"That's why you don't know anything!" Kish yelled and ran towards Pai. Pai quickly moved out of the way, knowing Kish was coming towards him. Kish quickly teleported behind him and knocked him to the ground.

"That was for earlier." Kish smirked. Pai growled at him.

"Sorry Taru-Taru, but you're being mean… RIBBON! PUDDING RING… INFERNO!" Her attack went glowing towards Taruto, who barely dodged it.

"Kish!" Ichigo yelled from across the area. Kish quickly turned towards her.

"Give the book to Ryo!" she called. Ryo quickly went running over to Kish, who quickly grabbed the book from his pocket and tossed it towards him…

Seeing this happen, almost in slow motion, Pai grew a smirk on his face. He teleported and caught the booklet in mid-air. He landed softly on the ground and teleported to the sky.

"Iie!" Ichigo shouted.

"Oh no!" Lettuce yelled.

"Pai!" Kish yelled. Pai simply smirked. He held the book in hand and opened it.

"Taruto! Go!" Pai yelled. Taruto launched an attack towards the grassy ground, causing dust and debris to fly around.

"Walk!" Pai commanded. Through the dust and debris flying, through the air, Ichigo did as the command said and came out of the dust and towards Pai. She stood under him as he flew above her.

"Oh no." Ichigo let out, sluggishly standing on the ground. Kish growled at Pai and Taruto. Pai let out a small bit of evil laughter.

"Now we will have her destroy you and all the mews. Deep Blue-sama will be proud." He smirked.

"Go, Strawberry! Bite!" Ichigo awkwardly leaped onto her fore paws and back paws and ran over to Kish and bit his ankle.

"Itai!" he shouted and jumped up, rubbing his ankle.

"Now attack him!" Pai commanded.

"Iie!" Ichigo yelled. Pai's face grew over with frustration.

"Baka neko! Do it!" Pai yelled.

"Never!" Ichigo screamed.

"Sit, neko!"

"- Ah-!" Ichigo fell into the dirt.

"Mew Mews! Go! Help Ichigo!" Ryo commanded.

"Right." Lettuce shook her head along with the others.

"RIBBON… ZAKURO'S PURE!"

"RIBBON… MINT ECHO!"

"RIBBON… LETTUCE RUSH!"

"Walk, neko!" Pai commanded. Ichigo quickly walked in front of their attacks.

"Ichigo!" Kish yelled. As the smoke cleared from the scene, it revealed Ichigo barely standing from the harsh attacks. Her face was bruised and scarred. Kish's 'almost smirk' turned into a horrible frown.

"Ko- Koneko…" He let out, trying to hold back from crying. Ichigo barely looked up and Kish. Her cat ears were drooping and her tail was dragging the floor.

"Attack now, neko!" Pai commanded once more…

"No," Ichigo stated, standing to her word, "No. Iie. I won't." she looked up at Pai floating in the air. He just grew more angry and frustrated.

"Taruto! Get her!" Pai yelled.

"But, Pai-."

"Do it!" Taruto teleported and attacked her with his shock-thingy (Sumimasen, I forgot what it was called.).

"Ho-Rai-Den!" Taruto yelled and it hit Ichigo. She fell to the ground with her eyes still partially open.

"Iie! Ichigo!" Kish yelled and went running over to her. He looked up at Taruto and Pai with lustful anger. His teeth clenched together tightly.

"Err!" he quickly teleported behind Taruto and slashed him with his swords. Taruto shockingly fell face down, to the ground.

"Taruto!" Pai exclaimed.

"Taru-Taru!" Pudding yelled, worriedly.

"Let it go, Pudding." Ryo put his and on her shoulder…

"Taruto!" Pai called out once more. Taruto didn't reply.

"Kish!" Pai yelled, "You are going to pay!" Pai pulled back his fan and prepared an attack.

"RIBBON… PUDDING RING… INFERNO!" Pudding's attack went straight for Pai. He was covered in a gel-like substance. He blinked a couple times, realizing what had happened. He bunched his eyebrows together and angrily bursting out. He took back his fan and pushed it forward letting out a huge gust of wind. It went whirling towards Kish and knocked him down to the ground, separating the grass from the rocky ground.

"Kish-kun!" Ichigo yelled, reaching out her hand as if she would be able to grab him. As the flying dirt cleared, it revealed Kish lying there in the broken ground. His eyes were barely open and he was straining to get up.

"Hahahmm…" Pai chuckled. He didn't care at all about what he just did to his formal friend.

"No! Kish-kun…" Ichigo yelled out with teary eyes. Ichigo looked back and glared at Pai. She busted out with anger and went running up towards Pai. She jumped up in the air with her Strawberry Bell Bell and it attached to the rod. A bright light surrounded her…

"RIBBON… STRAWBERRY… SUPR-!"

"Sit, baka neko!" Pai commanded. Ichigo quickly fell to the ground before her attack could finish.

"Déjà vu all over again…" Ichigo rubbed her head and strained to stand up from the hard fall. Kish stood up from the ground, barely standing, with his knees shaking.

"Now I'm going to finish you off!" Pai yelled. He held back his fan and pushed it forward hard.

"Windy-Thunder-Fan!" Pai yelled. The largest gust Ichigo's eyes had ever beheld went rushing towards the injured Kish. His eyes widened. He knew what was going to happen… He looked over at Ichigo, with a worn out smile.

"Kish-kun!" Ichigo yelled out with tears streaming down her face.

"Bai bai, Koneko…" he smirked. The gust of wind hit Kish. It looked like the wind itself was tearing his clothes apart. Finally, as the wind passed, Kish fell flat to the ground.

"Kish!!!" Ichigo screamed. She went running over to him.

"You alien!" Ryo yelled at Pai. Pai just hovered in the air with no facial expression at all. He crossed his arms staring down at Kish and Ichigo. Ichigo knelt down beside Kish.

"Kish-kun, get up!" Ichigo yelled. He didn't move.

"Kish-kun, get up!!!" she persisted. He still didn't move…

"Iie… Iie… IIE!!!" Ichigo screamed, "Hanamomimoaru, guddorukkingu Kish…" Ichigo's cheeks were moist with tears…

Ichigo placed her hand under Kish head and held it off the ground as she stared at his closed eyes. She couldn't hold anything in any more… She busted out with heavy tears, falling on Kish's face.

Ping.

"Nani?" Ichigo paused upon hearing a noise.

-Shine-

All of a sudden her necklace began lifting up and the Mew Aqua began to glow. Ichigo marveled at the sight. Then, the Mew Aqua glowed so bright Ichigo had to close her eyes…

Break.

Ichigo opened her eyes to find the necklace fell off and the Mew Aqua was floating in front of her, still glowing… Then, the mew aqua slowly grounded itself on Kish's heart and glowed brightly. Ichigo watched impatiently…

"What is going on?" Pai yelled from the sky.

Ichigo's eyes watered a little more as she leaned her face down towards Kish's lips. She sat there for a second in that position as she moved closer and closer until her lips touched Kish's. She closed her eyes and kissed him passionately… After a couple seconds she released…

"I- Ichigo?" Kish blinked his eyes.

"Kish-kun…" she said happily. Kish sat up rubbing his head. "Wha- what happened?" He looked down at the ground seeing the necklace lie there.

"What happed to the Mew Aqua?" he asked.

"I don't know…" Ichigo said smiling, "And I don't care…" she smiled. Kish couldn't help but smile back. He sat up a little straighter, leaning in towards Ichigo's face. She did the same. Their faces got closer and closer until their lips locked. Kish kissed her passionately as she kissed him back. He finally released and looked at her in the eyes… He slid his first finger down the side of her cheek and smirked. She smiled back.

"No! This can't be! This plan was flawless!" Pai exclaimed.

"Come on, Kish-kun." Ichigo smirked. He smiled. They both stood up in unison, holding hands… They jumped up into the air Kish flying and helping Ichigo up in the air as well. He threw her up high in the air towards Pai as she held her Strawberry Bell Bell in front of her…

"RIBBON… STRAWBERRY… SURPRISE!!!" A bright glowing rainbow filled the scene, as the background faded out…

As the dust and debris from the scene cleared, Pai was no where to be seen… Ichigo dropped from the air and Kish flew by and caught her, then placing her on the ground. She stood there beside Kish and smiled…

"Now you don't have to use a collar anymore." She smirked. Kish smiled.

"Aishiteru."

"I love you, too…"
