Chapter 8
Daddy will protect you!
The Girl clutched the old photograph against her chest and gave a terrified look at the older man. Her sensei had caught her in the act. The Girl stayed quiet as her sensei walked towards her, his eyes narrowing dangerously as he saw the file next to her, which she had accidentally dropped. He looked down at her, letting out a sigh and then asking coldly: "What are you holding?"
The Girl remained silent when sensei grabbed her chin and made her look up at his cold eyes.
"Answer me!" he hissed.
The Girl's look turned suddenly cold as hatred and the all other feelings that she had kept bottled up inside showed in her eyes.
The Girl's look was blaming, harsh and…just empty.

"Aoyama-kun!" Ichigo shouted in surprise as she saw him raise his sword for the attack. Then Kish shouted, "Don't you dare!"
A moment later he teleported over to Raspberry and placed a protective hand on her shoulder, giving the Blue Knight a cold look.
"If you even dare touch her, I swear I'll-…" Kish hissed, but Raspberry slapped his hand away and looked at the Blue Knight. Kish gave the alien girl a confused glance, but she gave a mean smile and said, "If the Blue Knight is still inside you…There is a possibility Deep Blue is too…"
After that Raspberry looked coldly at Kish and said in icy voice, "I would think YOU would have finished him…But no. How pitiful are you, daddy?"
After that Raspberry turned back to the shocked Blue Knight and let out dark laugh. Ichigo just shook her head, shocked, and not understanding quite what was going on. Kish just remained frozen in his place for a moment, then he suddenly forcefully grabbed the laughing girl and turned her so she had to look at him. Anger, hurt and something else could be easily read in Kish's eyes. Raspberry gasped as Kish hissed, "I tried and failed."
The girl looked shocked as she tried to escape the older alien's grip, but couldn't. Kish was much stronger than Raspberry.
While this all was happening, Ichigo just stared, not knowing what to do, when the Blue Knight stepped up next to her.
"A-Aoyama-kun?" she whispered quietly as the other nodded. "I still…I still don't understand…"
"Like I said, I'll always protect you, no matter what," he said, then glanced Kish and Raspberry's way. "Who is she?"
"Ah, erhm, she is Kish's future daughter," Ichigo said, deciding to leave that part out about not knowing exactly who the girl's mother was…
Just then Raspberry slapped Kishu's hand away, shouting at him: "Why you care? She choose that pitiful human over you! She hasn't done anything to get your respect, your love…"
Ichigo flinched a little bit as she heard Raspberry's harsh words. What she had said was actually true, unfortunately. But Ichigo loved Masaya, not Kish. Nothing could change that, right?
Raspberry turned back their way and then lifted her hand, just little bit. Ichigo let out a small yelp, without even realizing it as the Blue Knight used his sword to knock Raspberry's dagger away. Ichigo gasped as she saw her beloved was now furious.
"Leave Ichigo alone!" he stated, stepping in Raspberry's way.
The girl just smirked and summoned her other dagger. The Blue Knight took another step in the girl's direction, now pointing his sword at the girl. Ichigo gasped and said in a quivering voice, "Aoyama-kun, don't! She doesn't understand, she...she-…"
"But I do," Raspberry stated, looking at the Blue Knight. The Blue Knight let out a small smirk, which was sort of twisted, Ichigo noticed with some fright. And before she even noticed, the Blue Knight was already attacking Raspberry, who let out a small yelp. But before the actual hit, she faded away and appeared with Kish next to Ichigo. Kish let go of Raspberry, shouting to her: "What on Earth are you thinking? That guy is actually good!"
"But so am I!" Raspberry shouted back to Kish.
The other alien replied emotionlessly, "Then, why you then froze?"
All three of them turned to look at the Blue Knight, who looked at Raspberry, who looked him quietly.
"No answer? Well, I think I should teach you some manners then. You just can't come and claim you'll kill my precious strawberry," The Blue Knight spoke softly as he slowly walked towards Raspberry. The girl shivered a little, but didn't move. Ichigo was shaking her head as Kish suddenly grabbed her arm, whispering quietly, "Ichigo, quick, do something, before your boyfriend does something foolish."
After that Kish grabbed Raspberry, who tried to shake him off, but failed as Kish murmured something into her ear. Ichigo fearfully glanced at the Blue Knight, wondering what else Aoyama had hid from her. And, she wondered, had Raspberry been correct about that fact that Deep Blue was still be inside of her beloved?
