Attack on the main base
Ichigo felt someone's hand on the shoulder shaking her. She opened her eyes lazily and saw Mint with her proud nosed up face. 'Oi Ichigo get up. Did you forget that we need to save our home? We don't have a time for nap.''
'Mint sorry but I just couldn't sleep last night.'' Ichigo answered rubbing her eyes sleepy not fully awaken.
''Why? Did you need someone to tuck you in?'' Mint teased.
Ichigo's eyes winded. She remembered last night. She remembered Kisshu being next to her bed and making her feel good. Wait a minute that last night wasn't a dream. Her mind suddenly felt confused and her cheeks start to burn. Why he was so kind and sweet? Or maybe it wasn't him? Ichigo took a look on the Kisshu who was talking to Rua. He was his own self floating and smiling as usual. It was probably a dream or someone else.
Soon the time for battle came and they were ready. Hugame took mews and others to the base where the enemy was. They all were nervous but also ready, it was not the first time to face the mighty enemy to mews, but still last time they had luck on their side. This time their only chance was to be brave and strong enough to defeat these mechanic beasts.
Holding each other's hands aliens managed to teleport mews not far from the main entrance of the base. ''Ok we are here now the entrance is up there. ''Hugame said pointing her finger at the door that was guard by some dog robots.
''I didn't saw this kind of robots before'' Zakuro said.
''I know. This one's must be new one. I still don't have any information of their strength or abilities.''
''We need to enter silently. So then how we should get rid of these things, we need a decoy?'' Kisshu said seriously.
There was a silent for couple of minutes until Kisshu got bored and by his old habit he began to annoy Ichigo by floating around her head and playing with her cat ears witch she hated.
''Will you stop it you are going on my nerve!'' Ichigo whispered in fretting tone.
''I can't you are so cute when you are angry.'' He petted her hair.
''That's enough.'' Hugame said with calm voice. ''We need to focus. And Kisshu this is really serious and dangerous mission so if you don't start to act like a warrior you will... Oh who I kidding you are never serious.''
''Hey sis what is in this box?'' Kisshu asked picking up little box that has fall of Hugame pocket.
''That is some powder with the bacteria that live on human's. You better don't touch it or you will got in the contact with bacteria that is living mostly on the humans lips, as you see I'm trying to research what kind of batteries had developed on humans with influence of pollutions.''
''Still researching about our clan secret?''
''Yes.''
In that moment Kisshu suddenly drop the box and some little powder felt on Ichigo's lips. The blue lights and fog began to surround her and she turned into little black cat.
''Aw Koneko-chan now you are the real kitten so sweet'' Kisshu took Ichigo and start petting her had.
The cat Ichigo was trying to break free from his hug and when she finally made it, she began to scratch him all over his face. All Kisshu could do is hearing other taking deep breath and trying to separate Ichigo from his face.
''Owww that wasn't necessary ichigo I was just kind.''
''Yes but I think you didn't hold her rightly.'' Hugame said holding Ichigo like a baby. '' Hey mew Ichigo could you try to take attention of this dog-bots while Rua and Ruka shut them with arrows.''
Ichigo meowed like a sing of nodding and she followed Hugame's plan. The mission went successfully. In couple of seconds all of aliens and mews were inside the base. Then Hugame returned Ichigo into human form.
They all found themselves in the big hallway with no doors. There was only some kind of cable that looks like a veins filled with blood. They start to follow it and soon they enter into the one huge room that was filled up with dog-bots. The battle had started.
The dog-bots had been fast and it was hard to fight against them. Ichigo was trying her best but without her blue knight to protect her, she felt useless. She was cat and she had to fight mechanic dogs, it was enough bad that those things were dogs but robot dogs was too much for her? It was more that she cold handed. Other mews and aliens on the other hand had more luck in fight. In fact they all start to fight together.
Mew Mint, Rua and Ruka were attack from the air. They had position back-to-back and with them arrows they had protect everyone from the attack from behind.
Mew Pudding and Taruto had more fun than fight they look like a two acrobats with childish weapon. Taruto was flying over Pudding and every time when they were attacked Pudding would stop machines with her weapon and Taruto would destroy them with his weapon.
Mew Zakuro and Hugame take this fight really serious and like always Zakuro was fighting with all her strength destroying everything on her way, and Hugame was doing the same thing but she also had protecting Kisshu if he was attacked with more enemy that he could handed.
Mew Lettuce was staying next to Pai because she was afraid that he still might be hurt. In one attack when five dog-bots attacked them they fired up in the same moment and accidently combine them power. Combining Lettuce wave and Pai's thunder they create giant slash of water full of electricity that had shock all of the robots.
''That was amazing NA_NO_DA'' Pudding yelled jumping.
''Yes it was.'' Hugame said amazed ''Looks like if we work together we can defeat them.''
''Well Pai it looks like you and green mermaid actually make a perfect couple'' Kisshu teased.
''N-n-o w-we don't'' Lettuce barely said blushing so hard that she start filing warm.
''Idiot'' Pai said cold voice. He just ignored Kisshu's joke and took the peace of the robots. ''I will analyze this when we go back ''
They saw the door that those dogs were protecting and opened it. But when they entered they were all shocked. They saw a hundred of bubbles (like those in Tokyo) with aliens sleeping inside. The cables with blood that they saw earlier, was actually attached to the back of sleeping peoples. It was like it was taking them blood example. It was horrible view, old, young, children, and even babies, were trapped inside.
''W-w-what is this?'' Lettuce asked shaking.
''It looks like whoever is responsible for this mess, he want to have blood example from every live person on this Earth and our planet.'' Pai answered.
''This is terrible '' Ichigo said with tears in her eyes. ''How can anyone do something like this? Wait a minute are they even alive?"
''Yes they are'' Hugame said ''I can sense them life force. They are in some kind of hibernation, but alive. Those bubbles keep them in life but I'm not sure how. We should analyze it before we try to help them.''
In the corner of the room was one computer but not like one that aliens used, it was more like computer from the earth. Pai did some tipping on it and found some of the information that they need. He was trying to found out all about this invasion and how those robots and bubbles work.
Others were waiting until he finished his work. Rua and Ruka were guarding the entrance in the case of attack. Ichigo was sitting holding her head in her knees. The thought that this same horror is happening to her parents and boyfriend was killing her. She began to feel useless again. Why did that thought went thought her head every time when she need to fight. She suddenly felt someone's hand on her shoulder, it was Kisshu. Did he come to make me feel better?
Kisshu sit right next to her taking her hand. ''Don't be sad koneko-chan. You look lot sweeter when you are happy, and with this kind of depression you will never defeat the enemy.''
''Shut up Kisshu I'm not in the mood. Didn't you see what happened when we were attacked few minutes ago, I wasn't able to save even myself? If Pai and Lettuce didn't combine then attack those things would rip me apart.'' She Yelled ''I'm useless.
''So you want say if those things attack us once more you will lose?''
''Yes I will, I'm not even strong enough to fight you.''
'' Really? '' Kisshu asked with his evil voice and evil smile. '' You can't fight with me huh? Even if I do….'' His hand slowly went down on her back, and then when he was sure that she is totally lost in time and space he put his hand on her butt.
''Nyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!''
SPLASH
''You pervert, how dare you, I'm gonna kick your ass when I get you. '' Ichigo yelled while she was trying to catch Kisshu who was flying just little out of her reach. ''I'm not going to forgive you for what you done you are dead now.''
''Ichigo-san please come down.'' Lettuce asked holding Ichigo.
''Kisshu are you ok'' Hugame ask checking the red mark on his left cheek.
''Don't worry I don't even fell a thing.''
''No wonder, she hit you so hard that even people in bubbles could hear it.''
''Everyone! The party is coming here!'' Ruka said.
The mechanic balls and robotic dogs ran towards them. This time mews and aliens weren't ready to fight them all, so every alien took one of the mew and teleport to the shelter.
''Ok , that was really close. ''Hugame said angrily looking at Kisshu. ''Pai lets analyze those robots and see what data you found about those bubbles.
''Yes''
The others got the mission to rest for a while. Rua, Ruka and Mint were talking. Taruto and Pudding were fooling around, Zakuro was lost in her thoughts and Lettuce was lying on her bed thinking of what they saw today, and feeling bad for the prisoners.
Ichigo was ready to continue the fight with Kisshu but soon she figurate out that he wasn't there. She went out to look for him. He was sitting on the roof and watching into the sky. His eyes were sad but in the same time angry, what was he thinking of?
From his pocket Kisshu pulled off the necklace that he found when they were in his house. He held it strongly; it was obvious that that necklace was import to him.
''Kisshu?''
''Yo Koneko-chan did you miss me already?''
''No I just came here to continue our little fight from before. What were you thinking?''
"I was just trying to see your smile or any other face except the one you had. ''
''Oh...Well you could do something else you pervert.''
''Sorry that was the only thing I could remember.''
Idiot.
Kisshu continued to tease Ichigo, and for some reason she couldn't leave him, so she just continued with fighting back. Their game last for some time and Ichigo finally felt a bit better but then Hugame came out and ask Ichigo to leave her alone with Kisshu. She was really serious and with nod Ichigo left.
When she entered inside the shelter Ichigo could hear Hugame and Kisshu having a terrible fight. She couldn't hear everything, but she was sure that Kisshu said something bad to Hugame and then the fight was over. Kisshu teleported inside and Hugame just enter hiding her eyes. She looked so ashamed and hurt, and it was obviously that she didn't want to talk about it.
Few hours later Pai finally managed to get the information about the enemy and explain the situation to everybody. ''Our enemy is someone from the Earth but it looks like it is not human. I'm not sure who is he but right now we must be really careful because he found out about us and now every machine have order to hunt us. ''
''His base is working similar as the human body. The place where we were today is ventricle. That is the place from where he taking the blood. But his weak spot is in the other room. If we attack him there with all of ours powers combined we will be able to defeat him." Hugame continued Pai's speech.
Mews and aliens nodded realizing the situation; they were all determined to fight tomorrow and no matter what win. They had to their families and friend's lives were on the line, and when times like these come nothing is more important than defeating the enemy. Tomorrow the last fight will take the place and they have to win, they must and they will that was their decision.
