"Get away from, Momomiya-chan," Blue Knight said again.
"Not even in your dreams, bastard." Ichigo looked confused at Kart. Why isn't he afraid? Doesn't he know the Blue Knight could kill him with one hit?
"This is my last and final warning. Get away from Momomiya-chan!" Blue Knight charged at them, and Kart picked up Ichigo and jumped to the side.
"Kart. Aren't you scared?" He looked down at Ichigo and smiled.
"Not at all." He then jumped into a tree dodging Blue Knight again. I can't summon my swords though. Not until this hole is healed.
"Ichigo-san!" Kart and Ichigo stopped cold. They both looked shocked at Lettuce floating in front of them. She looked like a ghost though. Ichigo jumped from Kart's arms and ran over to her. She tried to touch her, but Lettuce backed away.
"Do not touch me or I'll disappear," Lettuce said. She then glared around Ichigo at Kart. "Hey, Kis-" Kart threw one of his swords through her, and she disappeared. Kart then went to his knees.
"Why did you do that?!" Ichigo yelled walking over to him. Kart looked at the ground.
"It-It could be a trick," he said. Ichigo didn't seem to notice the pain in his voice.
"Lettuce wouldn't trick m…how would you know what's going on?"
"I just do. The end," he stood up and avoided Ichigo's gaze. He walked over and picked up his sword and made it disappear.
"No you wouldn't!" Ichigo yelled. He started walking away. "Hey! Kart!" She grabbed is arm and turned him so she could see his face. She looked up at him surprised.
"What's the matter?"
"Nothing. No I have-I have to go," Kart turned and started running. Ichigo ran after him. He stopped after running a mile and looked over his shoulder. Man, Kitten. When did you get so fast? Kart then flinched and leaned back against a tree.
"Kart! Why did you run away?" Ichigo asked walking around the tree.
"Ca-cause I-I ca-can," Kart panted.
"Kart?" Ichigo said. Kart glared at her then turned and started walking away. "I-I wanna go to Magic Springs with you! When is it?" He froze then sighed.
"Fine." He pulled the tickets from his pocket and handed them to Ichigo. "Meet me at the park tomorrow." He then ran off. Ichigo looked down at the tickets then looked up to try to find Kart.
Kish groaned and rolled over on his stomach and floated a few inches off is bed. He then sighed and fell back don on the bed.
"What's the matter?" Tart asked. Kish rolled over on his side to face him.
"I can't stay floating too long," Kish said.
"You never had problems before," Tart said. Pai walked into the room and made Kish stand up.
"That's because he hasn't been hurt as bad, before. Seriously, Kisshu. Seven cuts on each hand, two gashes and now a hole. You need to rest."
"Fine," Kish said and followed Pai into his lab. He got in a large cylinder and sighed. Tart watched as Pai typed something into his computer. Kish then fell asleep.
"Will he be okay?" Tart asked as they walked out of his lab.
"Yes, he'll be fine. He just needs to rest. Which he hasn't done this whole week."
"Oh. So what are we gonna do with these Mews?" Tart asked looking at the Mews hanging on the wall.
"Kisshu is Kart, isn't he?" Lettuce said.
"Yes he is," Pai said grabbing Tart's arm and starting to walk away.
"Why? What is he going to do to Ichigo-san?" Lettuce asked.
"Dunno. Kisshu does what he wants."
"Why don't you stop him?" Lettuce asked and Pai stopped and turned to glare at her. He pushed Tart ahead, and Tart walked away, not even looking back. Pai walked over in front of Lettuce and the other Mews watched him.
"No one stops Kisshu when he's made his mind up. If he wants to kill himself it is his problem."
"Kill himself, na no da?" Pai nodded.
"If he continues to turn into Kart, then he will die. Especially with his wounds."
"Is that why you are healing him?" Mint asked. Pai walked away.
"For our people. Plus, the girls wouldn't be pleased if I killed their love." Pai walked out and Mint and Pudding looked at each other confused.
"'Killed their love'? Then why does he chase after Ichigo?" Mint asked.
"Because he doesn't love any of them," Zakuro said.
"Or because she's a human," Lettuce said.
"Different, na no da."
"True," Mint said. "But how are we going to stop him?"
"Ribbon Lettuce Rush!" Lettuce and the other Mews fell to the ground.
"Now how are we going to get out of here?" Mint asked.
"Dunno. Zakuro-san?"
"Ribbon ZaCross Pure!"
"Lettuce! Mint! Zakuro! Pudding!" Ichigo ran over to them and hugged them.
"Ichigo onee-sama, Kart onii-san is Kisshu, na no da!"
"What?" Ichigo asked looking at the other mews. They nodded.
"It's true," Zakuro said.
"No way. What kind of joke is this?"
"It isn't a joke!" Mint said.
"Kart is Kisshu," Lettuce said.
"I-I don't believe it. I-I won't!" Ichigo yelled.
"But it's true! Why else would he have stopped me saying his name?" Lettuce asked.
"Then prove it!" Ichigo yelled. The mews looked at one another. Then they looked back at Ichigo.
"We…we can't. We thought you would trust us," Lettuce said, shocked.
"He hasn't done anything Kisshu-like, so Kart isn't Kisshu!"
"Why'd you guys have to leave?" The Mews looked up at the aliens.
"Because we had to tell Ichigo important news about you, Kisshu," Mint said. Kish smirked and crossed his arms.
"And that is?"
"That you're Kart." Kish chuckled.
"Kart? That one guy that ran out when we started attacking?"
"So, that's what happened," Ichigo said. Tart rolled his eyes, and Pai shook his head. Man, she's so far up in dream world that she can't see the truth in front of her. Mint thought. I'll prove it to her! '"If he continues to turn into Kart, then he will die. Especially with his wounds."'
"Ribbon!"
"Minto Echo!"
"Pudding Ring Inferno!"
"Lettuce Rush!"
"ZaCross Pure!" The aliens dodged them easily, but Kish was quickly hit with Zakuro's whip. He slammed into the wall and glared at her.
"Onee-sama, you know what to do!" Mint said, and the other three Mews turned their attention to Pai and Tart. Ichigo looked between the groups confused.
"Ribbon Lettuce Rush!" Pai dodged the attack and had to block one of Mint's arrows.
"Ribbon ZaCross Pure!" Kish dodged her attack then was stabbed through the chest. He looked over his shoulder at a smirking Blue Knight.
"Bastard," Kish snarled then collapsed. Blue Knight pulled his sword out and walked over to Ichigo and Zakuro. The other three Mews were looking shocked at the knocked out Kish, along with Pai and Tart. Tart was the first one to recover though.
"Kisshu!" Tart flew over next to Kish and kneeled down next to him.
"Ribbon ZaCross Pure!" Tart glared at the purple Mew then closed his eyes waiting for the attack to hit.
"Ribbon Strawberry Surprise!" Tart then opened his eyes and looked shocked at Ichigo who was standing in front of them. She looked over her shoulder at Tart. "If you guys didn't have feeling you would've used that opportunity to attack us. Now you've proven even aliens have feelings. So hurry up and go." Tart nodded, and Pai appeared next to them. He picked Kish up.
"Don't think this makes us allies."
"Never," Ichigo said, and then turned to glare at the Mews. When she knew the aliens disappeared, Ichigo fell to her knees.
"Why did you do that, Ichigo?!" Ryou shouted, the next day.
"I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me," Ichigo said truthfully.
"You're becoming soft," Zakuro said, and Ichigo glared at her.
"Well, I don't want to be as hard as you!" Ichigo shouted. She then jumped from the metal table and started walking up the basement stairs.
"Where do you think you're going?" Ryou shouted after her.
"When did you become my mom?" Ichigo replied walking out the door.
Kart was leaning against a pole when Ichigo came running up to him.
"Hey Ichigo," Kart said and Ichigo looked him over. Kart looked at her confused. Let's see…Kisshu was stabbed in the chest. So, if I see any blood, then he's Kisshu. Shoot, he's wearing a black shirt.
"Is there any special reason why you're wearing a black shirt?" She asked then blushed and covered her mouth. "U-um, gomen. Just forget you heard that." Kart nodded, and Ichigo sighed.
"But why would you want to know?" he asked when they were in the park. Ichigo blushed more.
"N-no reason. It's just my friends had this crazy idea that you were that big jerk face." Kart stopped walking, and Ichigo looked back at him.
"Why do you think it's crazy?" Kart asked, looking at the ground.
"Because you don't act anything like him," Ichigo said walking up beside him. "Why do you look so upset?" Kart shook his head.
"It doesn't matter. How about we go on that?" Kart pointed to a rollercoaster, and Ichigo looked back at him shocked.
"On that?!"
"Sure why not?"
"Because we're going on it first." Kart flinched and saw Zakuro and Masaya standing in front of them.
"No you aren't. We are. Right Kart-kun?" Ichigo wrapped her arm in Kart's like Zakuro was doing to Masaya.
"Maybe it's not such a good idea," Kart said and started walking away. Zakuro grabbed his arm, and he flinched and looked at her.
"Scared?" She asked. He glared at her.
"You wish." He yanked his arm from her, and he and Ichigo joined the short line. Masaya and Zakuro got behind them. Masaya chuckled and Kart then turned around and saw Blue Knight and Mew Zakuro.
"Zakuro-san!" Ichigo yelled.
"Ribbon ZaCross Pure!" Kart ran in front of Ichigo and got thrown back into a wall. He groaned as he fell to his knees. Most of the people by now had run out in fright. Kart smirked. The people coming from that rollercoaster sure are in for some trouble.
"Kart are you okay?" Ichigo ran over to him. He nodded and stood up. He then glared at Masaya then realized Zakuro wasn't near him. He heard someone behind him, grabbed Ichigo, and jumped away just as Zakuro's whip hit the place they were standing. Ichigo put a hand to Kart's chest, and he dropped her. She looked at him shocked.
"What was that for?" She asked standing up. Kart was glaring at something above him. She looked up and saw Pai and Tart.
"There he is alright," Pai said, glaring at Kart.
"Now you guys too? What's with this? Are you guys also going to try to kill me?" Kart asked, and Ichigo looked at him confused.
"No, but you're going to die soon." Kart looked at them confused. "You don't have much strength left and you know it." Pai and Tart then disappeared. Ichigo looked at him shocked.
"Is it true? Are you going to die soon?" Ichigo asked. Kart laughed and shook his head.
"I refuse to die. Don't worry about me. I won't die soon. Not anytime soon." Kart smiled, and Ichigo smiled back.
"Ribbon ZaCross Pure!" Kart was once again slammed into the wall. He landed on his feet and barely missed Blue Knight's sword. Kart was about to summon his sword, but Ichigo grabbed his arm. He turned to look at her and saw she had already changed into a Mew.
"Ichigo?" Kart asked, and Ichigo nodded.
"Strawberry Bell!" Ichigo stood in front of Kart, and he stood behind her, tense. "Aoyama-kun! Zakuro-san! Why are you doing this?"
"You wanted us to prove he's Kisshu. Get out of the way so we can prove it." Kart looked behind him at the rollercoaster where all of the passengers looked at the Mews and Blue Knight shocked. Kart ran over to them.
"Get out of here if you want to keep your life." Everyone quickly got off. Kart ran over to the control box and turned the rollercoaster on. He then ran and jumped on. Like he thought, Masaya and Zakuro jumped in, in the very back.
"Kart!" Ichigo yelled.
"I'll be fine!" He called back. He looked back at Masaya and Zakuro. They were slowly climbing towards him. He started climbing over the seats until he was in the very front. He sat down and looked back at Zakuro and Masaya. Zakuro was four seats from him, and Blue Knight was only two seats from him. Kart cursed then looked ahead of him. He saw a huge hill coming and apparently so did the other two, since they sat down in the seat they were in. They went down the hill and Kart stood up and faced Blue Knight. He ducked, dodging his attack then jumped over him. He then dodged Zakuro's whip and jumped over her. He jumped over all the seats until he was in the very back. He then looked down at the ground. Kart then winced and put a hand over his chest. He looked back and saw Masaya coming towards him with Zakuro not far behind. He looked back down and sighed. He then jumped.
"Kart!" Ichigo saw him jump.
