Recap:

"I'm sorry, Ichigo, but yes…" Pai said staring at the ground. "…Kisshu is dead…"

I stared at the machine in shock. "No! He can't be dead! I don't believe it!" I practically screamed. I flung myself onto Kish's chest and sobbed. Pai and Doctor Yumi slipped out of the room. I kissed Kish more passionately then ever before. "Kish…don't die…I love you too much for you die…please…wake-up and tell me that this is all a dream and I'm going to wake-up soon…" When he didn't stir, I began cry harder. "…Please don't go…I love you…" With those final words, I fell into a deep sleep.

I awoke a few hours later still laying there on top of my dead love. Remembering what had happened in the last few hours brought fresh new tears tumbling out. I closed my eyes. I few moments later I opened them back up to the voice of somebody murmuring 'Ichigo…Ichigo…' I looked down to see Kish's eyes flutter open and a smile begin to play on his lips. I embraced the man who we all had thought was dead. "Kish…y-you're back…!"

"Ichigo…" Kish said weakly and gave me a sweet kiss.

"Kish, you're alive!" I started to cry again but this time it was tears of joy and relief. The alien nodded. "But, how?"

"You. You really do love me. Because of your love, you were able to bring me back. I had someone who still needed me." Kish explained stroking my cheeks.

"I do need you, and I do love you." I assured him. With that, we shared another sweet yet passionate kiss.

In the Hallway of the Ship

Kish and I had left the room and were looking for Pai. "Kitten. Listen. Do you hear those voices?" Kish asked. We turned to see the main office door open a crack. We walked over and listened.

"He's dead, sir. Even ask Doctor Yumi.." A voice said.

"If you're sure. The funeral shall be in two days then. But, make sure that you two get that strawberry-headed mew mew out of here by tomorrow." Another man said.

"But why, sir?" Yet another man asked.

"If she's here, then she will know that we have hired a new man to take his place." The second explained.

"Why is that such a bad thing?" The first asked. Kish knocked on the door then stepped into the room.

"I'm sorry. Are we interrupting something?"

"Kish?" Deep Blue stood up. I stepped in and grabbed Kish's hand.

"Kish? What are you doing here? You're dead." Pai also stood-up.

"Well, I came back! Is that a crime?" Kish said shaking Deep Blue's hand.

"Kish! You are alive! I told them!" Tart said giving Kish a friendly hug. Tart's eyes were all red and puffy.

"Well, Kish, we were just discussing your funeral. But I guess that won't be necessary now will it?" Deep Blue told us satisfactorily. Pai smiled at that comment. (A/N who knew Pai knew how to smile! Just kidding.)

"Well, Ichigo. I had better bring you home." Kish wrapped his arms around my waist and teleported to my house.

My House

Kish wobbled around. "Kish! You must've lost too much energy teleporting. Why don't you stay here for tonight?" I offered.

"Nah thanks. I better head back to…the…ship…" Kish fell over and landed on the couch. I grabbed some covers and covered him up.

"Good-night, Kish." I gave him a quick kiss and went to my own room.
