Chapter 11: I Want to Help!!

Lettuce was asleep. Her head lay on the larger desk, where she was attempting to work. She had stayed with Pai in the lab to help him with his work, but her tiredness had finally overtaken her and she dosed off.

"Lettuce did you find—" Pai started, as he walked in from the back room. He stopped when he saw her sleeping on the desk. He knew it was only a matter of time. Pai walked over to her and carefully scooped up her sleeping body.

He teleported her back to the room where Kish, Ichigo, and Ami were being held. He saw that Ichigo and Kisshu were leaning on the wall, also, fast asleep and that Ami was between them with her head down. Pai assumed she was also asleep. He walked over to the wall and put Lettuce next to Ichigo. She place her very carefully so that she wouldn't wake up. He stood ready to leave.

"Daddy?" a small voice said before he could leave. Pai looked down and saw Ami staring up at him. She looked over at Lettuce and then back up at him. "Is Mommy okay?" she asked her voice sounding worried.

Pai bent down so that they were eye level. "Of course she is, honey. Mommy is just really tired." Pai responded reassuringly. He smiled and added, "Now get some sleep, okay."

"But I already did," Ami whined, "and I'm not sleepy anymore."

"Just try to okay, sweetie?" Pai said not knowing what else to tell her. She really couldn't do anything else in this empty room, and the others were asleep so they couldn't entertain her and Pai, well he had work to do.

"Fine," Ami said folding her arms to look mad. Pai smiled.

"That's my girl," Pai said ruffling her hair.

"Daddy, when are we going back home?" Ami asked. Pai's smile faded, Ami noticed. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing," Pai said smiling again, "I don't know when we'll be going back home, but very soon I ho— promise."

"Okay," Ami said sounding satisfied, "Bye Daddy." She said closing her eyes, knowing he was going to leave again.

"Bye Ami." Pai said before teleporting away. When he was gone Ami opened her eyes. She wasn't sleepy and she wasn't going to try to sleep either.

She stood up and walked to the other side of the room. She was so bored and she didn't know what to do. And on the other hand she couldn't help but feel like her father was keeping something from her. She saw the way his face changed when she asked about home. Something was going on and no one wanted her to know.

"Hey, you." A voice called. Ami turned around. There was Yukio floating behind her.

"Yukio!" Ami called sounding happy to have someone's company.

"Shh." Yukio said quickly, "you don't want to wake the others." He said referring to Lettuce, Ichigo, and Kisshu.

"Oh, no," Ami whispered.

"Can I talk to you about something important?" Yukio asked. Ami looked at her mom.

"Uhh I thought we weren't supposed to leave," Ami said not wanting to be separated from her mom again.

"Well, with my permission you can," Yukio responded, "Please its very important."

"Oh, then maybe you should talk with my dad," Ami suggested, "he's good at handling important things."

"No," Yukio said sounding annoyed, "I need your help."

Ami thought for a second. He really sounded he needed her, and Ami loved helping people, but part of her didn't want to go because she didn't want to leave her mom. However Yukio was pretty nice to her when they were on the ship and she didn't think he would hurt her.

"Okay," Ami finally said.

"Thank you," Yukio said holding out his hand. Ami took it and Yukio teleported them out of the room.

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

Ami looked around. They were in a smaller room, with a huge cushioned chair and another smaller chair, and again no doors.

"Hello Ami," a voice said. Ami looked up and saw a woman with elf ears, like hers. She had long orange hair and was wearing a long, flowing yellow dress. She had a crown on her head and her ears stuck through it.

"How are you?" Ami asked while looking around. She didn't see Yukio anywhere. It was just her and this lady.

"I'm Mai, Queen of this empire," she answered.

"Where's Yukio?" Ami asked getting worried.

"Don't worry he'll be back soon," Mai answered, "but I would like to talk to you about something very important Ami." Mai noticed Ami's worry. "Would you like to sit in my throne?" Ami's face lit up.

"Sure," she said sounding excited. Mai lifted her up to the seat. "It's comfy." Ami said.

"Thank you," Mai replied, "Ami, you're a very special girl, did you know that?"

"Well, my mom said that everyone is special in their own way," Ami answered.

"Ami, you're more special than anyone else," Mai started, "Do you know why?" Ami shook her head. "Because, you have a special power, Ami. Do you like this planet, Ami?"

"Well I was scared to be here at first—"

"Well, do you like Kisshu and Pai?"

"Well yeah! They're my family and I love them!" Ami answered.

"What about Yukio, what do you think about him?" Mai went on with a smile.

"Well, he was my first friend here," Ami said.

"So don't you like the people from this planet, Ami? Aren't they nice, good people?"

"I guess so," Ami said sounding a little confused.

"So you see Ami, something bad is going to happen here to all these good people."

"Why?" Ami asked.

"Well Ami that's a good question with a long, complicated answer," Mai replied, "but something bad doesn't have to happen! You can help us, Ami."

"How," Ami asked.

"By giving us your special power," Mai went on, "that's all you have to do for us. And then you save everyone. Isn't that great?"

"Well, yeah but how do I give it to you?" Ami asked.

"Oh, don't worry about that part," Mai said smiling, "Let us handle that, but will you help us Ami? Can we count on you?"

Ami thought about her mom, and how she helped people everyday. That's what Ami wanted to do, help people like her mom. And if she did this then she would be helping this whole planet.

"Ok, I'll help!" Ami answered.

"Oh thank you, Ami!" Mai said hugging her, "You've saved our planet!"

"You're welcome," Ami said with a smile.

"But, I must ask you for one more favor," Mai said pulling away, her voice serious, "Don't tell your parents about this conversation."

"Why?" Ami asked confused, "My mom loves helping people, she would be really proud!"

"In that case," Mai started, "Let's keep it a secret so that we can surprise her."

"Okay," Ami agreed. Just then Yukio appeared. "Yukio," Ami called, "guess what!?"

"I know," Yukio said with a grin, "You're going to help us. Thank you!"

"Yukio take her back to her room, please." Mai said. Yukio took Ami and teleported away.

Mai sat down on her throne. "Want something done right, you have to do it yourself."
