The steam had long left the bathroom, yet the two new found lovers still lay there in the bath cuddled together.

The alien held on top his Koneko-chan possessively, scared to let her go in case it was all a bad dream. He stroked her ears softly, earning a quiet but sleepy purr from her.

"Koneko-chan?" She opened her eyes.

"Hmmm..?"

"You sleepy?"

"Yeah…"

With that he stood up and got out of the bath and picked her up bridal style. Cuddling closer to the heat of his body, she let out a small meow. He smiled, quickly drying them both off with a towel and took her to her room and tucked her into her bed then got in beside her, wrapping an arm around her.

"I love you." He whispered. Blushing she cuddled closer to him again.

"I love you too." She drifted off to sleep only thinking of one thing. Maybe Kisshu was the one for her after all.


Ichigo awoke. Warm sunlight was shining onto her face and she felt an arm wrapped around her protectively.

Opening her eyes she saw the green haired alien laid sound asleep. Smiling, she cuddled closer to him and looked up, studying his face. She'd never looked at him this close up before. As he slept his ears had dropped slightly and his facial features relaxed. She no longer saw the evil-looking expressions that once played on his face. All she saw was love.

His lips were slightly in a pout, yet he was still smiling. He looks so happy, she thought. Leaning forward she gave him a soft kiss on the lips, letting them linger there. He slowly opened his eyes and she pulled away.

"That was nice Koneko-chan," he whispered. "Do I get one every morning?" He asked cheekily. She giggled, butterflies flapping around in her stomach.

"Of course."

At that moment mini mew came flying through the door. "ALIEN ALERT! ALIEN ALERT!" He screamed, hovering over Kish and Ichigo, occasionally swooping down and hitting Kisshu over the head.

"Mini mew! It's ok!" the cat girl stammered, trying to calm the annoying robot down.

"ALIEN ALERT! SENDING SIGNAL TO OTHER MEWS!" Oh….shit…. Ichigo thought.

"Kisshu…. You have to go. They're gonna be coming."

"But…"

"No go! I don't know what I want to tell them yet."

With that the annoyed alien got out of bed and put his clothes on. The little robot was still flapping around. "ALIEN! ICHIGO ALIEN!"

"SHUT UP!" Kish shouted at it, his patients wearing extremely thin.

"ALIEN!" Mini mew took another swoop at Kish's head. The alien grabbed him and threw him as hard as he could into the wardrobe and shut the door.

"I'll see you later." Bending down, he kissed her then teleported away.

She put her clothes back on then laid back down, noticing that the wardrobe was still shaking from the robot trying to get out. She knew that the annoying little fur ball had sent an alert out to her friends and that they would be arriving shortly to see what all the commotion was about. She contemplated what to tell them.


Kisshu teleported back to the ship, sad that he had to leave the cat girl again. He slumped down the corridor towards his room thinking about his time with Ichigo but silently cursing the little pink hairball that had made him leave. Turning the corner he bumped smack into Pai. "Uh?"

"Sorry." Kisshu replied to his friend's grunt.

"It's ok… But where have you been?" The older alien asked him suspiciously. Kisshu didn't think that anyone would have noticed his absence and he thought about what he should tell him.

"I've been with my Koneko-chan. Decided to pay her a little visit." Pai looked at him and raised his eyebrows.

"And? What did you do?" Kisshu hated lying to his comrade but he knew it would be for the best. He let out a fake sigh.

"She rejected me… like she always does."


As Ichigo's lay on her bed reading one of her manga books her bedroom door burst open and the mew mews along with Ryou and Keiichiro ran in. "Hi guys," she smiled.

"Mini mew sent a message saying there was an alien." Purin said, slightly concerned.

"ALIEN!" Mini mew screamed from inside the wardrobe.

Ryou looked towards the wardrobe. "Why is Mini mew in there?"

"He won't shut up." The blonde looked at her blankly.

"Was there an alien in here?" Ichigo blushed at the thought of what had happened and looked away ashamed that she was going to lie to her friends. She knew her face had given her away. Seeing six pairs of eyes looming curiously at her she answered.

"um… yes. It was Kish."

"Where is he now?" asked lettuce timidly.

"he…um… teleported when Mini mew started sending signals. Then mini mew wouldn't shut up so I put him in the wardrobe."

Ryou looked at her suspiciously. "What did he want?" the mew leader blushed a deeper red and refused to give him eye contact.

"h-he kissed me again," she stammered.

"You sure you're ok?" He asked again, irritation evident on his face.

"y-yes. Why wouldn't I be?" And why does Ryou care so much? She thought to herself.

"Ok. You're telling me I got out of bed for no reason whatsoever?" Minto grumbled to no one as she left the room. The other mews followed her out after saying their quick goodbyes to their leader.

"Bye Ichigo." Ryou said as him and the polite brunette exited her room. He shut the door and they made their way across the landing. Just as they were about to descend down the stairs Ryou grabbed keiichiro's arm.

"what is it?" He asked him.

"look over there." Ryou said, nodding towards the slightly opened bathroom door.

Keiichiro looked over where Ryou was gesturing and saw the carpet on the landing soaked. They walked quickly to the bathroom and opened the door and were shocked at what they saw. The room was soaked, the towels were scattered around the room and the window was wide open. Ichigo's clothes were also scattered. The room was a complete tip.

"What do you think happened?" Keiichiro asked, unsure weather he wanted to know the answer as he was sure he already knew.

"looks like a struggle."

"But… What would the struggle be over?" He asked, not wanting to believe what he was thinking.

Ryou looked over to him. "I think we already know. Ichigo said Kish was here didn't she?"

"Yes."

"Then maybe Kish wanted more that a kiss."

"You're not saying that he…" The chef trailed off, not wanting to say the last part.

"That he raped her? That's exactly what I'm thinking."

"But wouldn't Ichigo have told us?"

"No… she's probably ashamed that she let it happen. She wouldn't even look at us and the way that she was acting suggests to me that's what happened."

They looked around the room once more before leaving. Ryou knew that he'd have to talk to the redhead soon about what had happened to make sure she was okay. He thought it was best to leave her alone for a while before anyone asked her any difficult questions. If what I think has really happened I'm going to kill that bastard of an alien. Ryou inwardly thought to himself. He shook with rage. He didn't know why he was so angry or why he was suddenly caring for the cat girl, but one thing was for sure. If he ever found out that anyone had hurt her in that way he'd kill them.
