Chapter 4: New Hope

Lettuce was standing in Kygomi Park. She thought going there would bring some answers, any answers, but she had found none so far. She wandered how Pai was doing. He was getting his ship ready for tomorrow's departure. Lettuce knew it wouldn't take too long because she knew Pai goes in there and keeps everything up to date every once and awhile. He thought she didn't know but she did.

Lettuce sighed before she looked around again. Who would come here in broad daylight to abduct a child? Was Ami that important to whoever took her.

Ami...

Lettuce felt her eyes water. All she wanted right now was to know if her daughter was safe and sound.

Her phone began to ring.

She pulled out her cell phone and flipped it open. "Hello?" she answered.

"Lettuce?" the other line said. She recognized Pai's voice.

"Yeah?"

"We have a problem." Pai answered.

"What?" Lettuce asked quickly.

"My system on the ship it's been wiped…clean," Pai stated.

"What?—What does that mean?" Lettuce asked confused.

"It means that Kisshu was right and whoever took Ami knows who we are or they wouldn't know to wipe my system," Pai responded.

"What does this mean for us?" Lettuce asked.

"They wiped it so we couldn't track them," Pai answered, "So know we don't know where they are."

"Wouldn't they be going back to your planet?" Lettuce asked.

"Well, that's the safest bet but we don't know for sure, so—"

"I understand," Lettuce interrupted, "Any ideas?" She heard him exhale.

"Not at the moment," he answered. Lettuce closed her eyes.

"Yeah ok," she said before closing the phone. Why was all this happening? She looked down at her phone. She really shouldn't have hung up like that but right now she didn't care too much. She opened the phone.

"Better call Kisshu and Ichigo," she sighed to herself. She scrolled through her Contacts list when a name flashed on her screen. She gasped. She hadn't seen or heard that name in awhile. That's when an idea popped into her head.

************************************************************

Ami stared at her reflection in the silver tray. Her ears were huge and elf-like, but that wasn't the only thing she was staring at. Her eyes that were dark like her fathers were now lighter and brighter shade of purple-lish blue. She stared at herself in disbelief.

"How did this happen?" she asked aloud.

"It's pretty easy," a voice answered. Ami gasped and looked up. She didn't see anyone.

"Who?" she asked looking around. She turned around and saw the alien that brought her food. "How'd you get in here?" Ami asked confused.

"Teleported," he answered flatly.

"What's that?" Ami asked still confused. He rolled his eyes and teleported right in Ami's face. She fell backwards from the surprise. He stood up straight and turned around.

"That's teleporting," he said. She stared up and him a little afraid to talk.

"I-Well why are my ears like this?" Ami stuttered.

"It's because your part alien," he answered lightly.

"I'm part what?" Ami asked.

"Alien," he repeated, "like me."

"How?" Ami asked.

"Well I think you should have that talk with your parents," he said, "but I will tell you that you are part alien, because of either your mom or your dad."

"Mom or Dad?" Ami thought aloud. They or one of them were aliens. How? "Do you know which one?"

"Yeah," he answered, "but I'm not gonna tell you. You should figure it out yourself."

"So I'm part alien," Ami said more to herself than to him, "What do you want with me?" He smiled down at her.

"Oh that part will come soon enough," he said teleporting out the room. Ami took one more glance into the tray.

"Why didn't they tell me?"

************************************************************

Lettuce stared at the double door. It had always been there. Yet she didn't come anymore. She stared at the pink walls and red windows. She took a deep breath and raised her hand to knock on the door.

Right as she knocked the door opened. She was face to face with a red-headed girl. She looked like she was in a rush.

"Oh uh is Ryou Shirogane here?" Lettuce asked.

"Yes," she answered examining Lettuce, "Why?"

"I really need to see him," Lettuce said, she was starting to get impatient. The girl looked her over one more time then leaned inside the door.

"Ryou you got company!" she yelled before walking past Lettuce. Lettuce looked back at her. Then turned her attention back to the door. Ryou appeared before her. He had gotten taller and his hair was a bit longer.

"Lettuce?" he said as if he was dreaming. She nodded.

"Ryou I really need your help," Lettuce said.

"Come in," he said motioning towards the entrance. She walked in and took a quick look at the Café. It had changed. It wasn't that girly café she had known it. The colors were darker and there were computers everywhere. It had turned into an Internet Café. Ryou closed the door. "What's going on?"

Lettuce told him everything. How Ami had been abducted by aliens, and how Ichigo was hurt, and how the computer system for Pai's ship was wiped. By time she was done she was on the verge of tears.

"Lettuce I'm so sorry," Ryou said. Lettuce wiped her eyes with her sleeve.

"I was wandering if there was anyway you could help?" Lettuce said.

"How could I help?" Ryou asked.

"I—Well," Lettuce thought about it herself, "do you still have Masha?" she finished when an idea hit her mind.

"Well, yeah but he's been turned off for years," Ryou said.

"Yeah but he still has sensors right?" Lettuce asked hopefully, "If you turn him can't he—"

"We could try Lettuce," Ryou interrupted, "but no promises."

She followed him to the basement. She looked around on the way there.

"So where's Kiechiro?" Lettuce asked.

"He left awhile ago," Ryou answered, "It's just me and Akimi now."

That must be the red-head.

They reached the basement. Ryou walked towards a box and opened it. He pulled out Masha. He clicked a switch and Masha immediately perked up.

"Alien Alert! Alien Alert!" he squeaked. Lettuce's eyes brightened.

"He could just be sensing Pai and Kisshu," Ryou pointed out.

"No No!! More Aliens!" Masha squeaked. Lettuce rushed over and scooped up Masha.

"Masha, where are they?" Lettuce asked.

"983X, 873Y" Masha answered. Lettuce looked up at Ryou.

"It's a coordinate in space," Ryou said shocked himself, "I guess I never realized how strong his sensors are."

"Masha I need your help can you help me?" Lettuce said to the little furball.

"Masha help! Masha help!" he squeaked.

"Thanks Ryou," Lettuce said.

"I just hope you find Ami alright," Ryou replied with a reassuring smile.

"I know we will," Lettuce said turning to go.

"Thanks again," she called running up the stairs. She ran out the door and towards her house.

"Masha you're a life saver!" she whispered.

So what do you think. We're starting to get to the good stuff! Oh and I'm gonna be making a video for youtube kinda based on this. It's gonna be like a family tree with Pai, Lettuce, and Ami (what I think she would look like) So yeah I hope to get that up soon.
