Pai: Why are you so upset?

Mew Bubblegum: Kisshu hates me! And I hate him!

Taruto: Aww don't cry. It makes Pudding sad and I HATE THAT!

Pai and Mew Bubblegum exchange odd looks.

Taruto: What?

Pai: *clears throat* Mew Bubblegum does not own Tokyo Mew Mew and would like to thank the original owners for creating it.

Taruto: If she did own it, then Kisshu would be here chatting up Ichigo-san^^

Pai: *sigh*

Chapter 6: Tears of a Ghost

Minto, Pudding, Zakuro and Taruto were all hanging from chains on a wall, in a deep dark cave. Every so often, a drip of water would hit the floor. Minto was practically losing it.

"GET ME OUT OF HERE!" Minto screamed.

"Minto, keep calm," Zakuro reassured her.

Zakuro had also been kidnapped by Kisshu's father, even though she was in America. {A/N: He's making efforts now} Pudding wriggled about and sighed as she still couldn't break the chains. She looked over at Taruto, who was still unconcious. A tear slipped down Pudding's cheek. The boy had been beaten more than the others had, and blood was dribbling down his forehead. This worried Pudding. She looked around at the other chains that held skeletons, proberly from ancient times by the look of some of their clothes.

"Zakuro-san... Pudding's scared!" Pudding whispered in her old childish voice.

"Don't worry, Ichigo and Lettuce-chan will help us. I can feel it," Zakuro looked through the hole in the ceiling.

Only a small amount of light could get in, but they could tell it was daylight.

Under the beating sun, Mew Ichigo ran and ran from Crystal's blasts. She jumped up onto a roof and continued to run. What's with her, I didn't do anything to her! I bet this is revenge for Lettuce! Mew Ichigo shouted in her thoughts. I've got to find a way to attack her. These shocks are too fast and I'm starting to get tired. Mew Ichigo, suddenly got an idea. She focused her eyes on a big tree and headed straight for it. Maybe I can catch her out by that tree, Mew Ichigo thought. She ran in and up the tree, appearing at the top. Crystal was nowhere to be seen. Then a zap of blue caught onto Mew Ichigo's arm. A stream blood followed into the warm wind. Mew Ichigo clutched her arm, blood was running down it and her glove was covered.

"Strawberry Bell!" Mew Ichigo whispered and grabbed her heart shaped weapon.

She sneaked along the branch of the creaking tree, up behind Crystal. Mew Ichigo winced as the pain in her arm grew. Suddenly, she realised it hadn't only damaged her arm, but the side of her body as well. Her eyes widened. No! I will be strong! I've got to do this... For Lettuce-chan! Mew Ichigo stood upright and held out her Strawberry bell.

"Ribbon... Strawberry... Surprise!" Mew Ichigo shrieked.

Crystal looked back to see a blast of pink and blue soar towards her. She smirked and disappeared before it hit her. She appeared again behind Mew Ichigo and drove her hand into Mew Ichigo's back. Electric waves fried Mew Ichigo's body. She screamed and screamed with the pain.

"Now you feel it? Death shall be your new friend!" Crystal laughed, wickedly.

She took her hand back and let Mew Ichigo drop to the ground with a thud on the head. The Cat Mew lay still on the soft grass. Crystal floated down and held her head to the side. She smiled like an innocent child and vanished into wind.

Pai, Taruto and Kisshu's house

Pai rested his head on his folded arms and gazed at the sleeping green-haired girl. I have no right to deserve you. I hurt you so much in the past. I can't believe I'd even compare myself to Kisshu; but he was right, love hurts the strongest of people. Pai lost himself in his thoughts, so much that he didn't realise that Lettuce was beginning to wake up. She opened her big, green eyes and they immediatly looked for Pai. She focused on him and saw the sadness that shon in his deep and mysterious eyes.

"Pai-san," Lettuce whispered with her delicate, but ruff voice.

Pai's eyes shot up and beamed ever so brighter with the sight of Lettuce's smiling face.

"Lettuce-chan, you're safe," Pai smiled.

Lettuce moved over and placed her arms around his neck, holding him very close to her. Pai felt the urge to do the same and placed his arms around her waist.

"I won't let the world hurt you..." Pai whispered in Lettuce's ear.

It made her tremble, that he might get hurt, but she didn't want to spoil a beautiful moment between them.

Under the rustling tree

Mew Ichigo's body was still untouched and not moving at all. Her chest only moved ever so slightly with every little breathe she took. The blood was draining fast from her body, making every breathe more of a struggle.

Kisshu walked towards Ichigo. His hands holding his dragon swords tight. His glare was frightening and mysterious. Ichigo stepped back with every step closer he took. This was it. This was the end. He was going to kill her, once and for all. Ichigo held up her power pendant and tried to transform, but the power wouldn't escape the golden pendant. Ichigo was now pressed up to the wall, with Kisshu almost right in front of her. Kisshu extended his left sword to Ichigo's neck and it dispersed into nothing. His hand grabbed Ichigo's hand. With her in his clutch, he forced her to walk with him. No one spoke.

A pair of golden-amber eyes flew in and out of Mew Ichigo's mind. Though her heart was almost stopping, her mind was fast at work. A pair of brown boots stood by Mew Ichigo's body.

Kiss me, Ichigo.

A voice asked in her head. Mew Ichigo parted her lips a bit more and brownish pair locked in with hers. The figure that kissed her started to shine a golden pink colour, his yellow eyes opening to see the terrible sight that lay before him .

"Ichigo!" he gasped.

Kisshu wasn't aware that he had just stolen Mew Ichigo's life. He knelt down beside her and raised her head with his left hand. With his right hand, he leaned over her body. He held his cheek just above Mew Ichigo's mouth: he couldn't feel any air. He kissed Mew Ichigo again and again and again. Kisshu wasn't going to give up until Mew Ichigo was alive. Still he tried and tried, but with no success.

"ICHIGO!" Kisshu screamed at the top of his lungs, throwing his head up into the air.

He placed his forehead on her stomach area and sobbed into her dress, covered with blood. His whole body shook with every pounding breathe he took. {A/N: Play, Love is War by Mergurine Luka, before reading onwards}

Kisshu's scream had some how reached everyones ears. They all knew, somehow, what had happened. Lettuce and Pai winced at the sound. Zakuro bowed her head down, while Minto wailed her head off and Pudding gathered tears in her eyes.

Kisshu raised his head and then placed his body down, beside Mew Ichigo's. He held onto her hand and turned his face to look at her head. He snuggled in close to her, just if she were alive. Kisshu adverted his eyes to the sky above them and looked at the red raw sky. It looked painfully evil and the brisk sunlight was still harsh and harmful to the eyes. Kisshu rubbed his eyes a bit and snuggled his face onto Mew Ichigo's shoulder and closed his eyes.

"I'll stay with you forever..." Kisshu whispered with an aching touch to his voice.

End of this harmful chapter :'(

Taruto: That's... So sadening, but why didn't I get mentioned again?

Mew Bubblegum: You were unconcious, how could you hear Kisshu then. See smartness. So everyone to explain the song: I think Love is War is a good example how love is a battle for these Mew Mews and also the piercing scream of Luka, in my opinion, is one fo the best and totally explains the pain that was drawn on Kisshu (Plus the other Vocaloids' screams just don't compare, in fact they are flat). Sorry for the short chapter again, but I couldn't actually think of much to write. I'll try and think of a good lengh for chapter 7, I promise!

Taruto: Review it or Lose it^^ I love my lines!
