Disclaimer- If I own Tmm, Masaya would be in hell right now and Ichigo would be in love with Ryou or Kish. Since none of that is happening, that means I don't own Tmm.
Darkgoddess17- Another Chap!! Aren't you all sooo happy?

All- (Unenthusiastically) yay.....

Darkgoddess17- (Still smiling) Anyway, last chap was too short, I know. Really sorry. This chap is going to be longer!!! (I think)

Ichigo- Can you just hurry up? I have a date with Masaya after this so please do not waste any of my time.

Darkgoddess17- (Evil glint) Oh. A date with Masaya eh.....(Goes off)

Ichigo- wait....I shouldn't have told you that....

Darkgoddess17 Voice- Nope! You shouldn't have...(Echoes)
Chap 7 Truth

"Your powers?" asked a confused Kish.

"Yes! They are gone!!! I wa..was going to tra..transform but it won't le..let me!" stuttered a dazed Ichigo.

Kish suddenly laughed.

"What the hell are you laughing at?" snapped Ichigo. "Think it is funny that I am completely helpless do you?"

"No...no..it's just that (Laughs) I forgot to tell you something.." laughed Kish.

"Tell what?" asked Ichigo.

"I forgot to tell you that once you've being in a spatial dimension for too long, your powers sort of disappears, but only for the time being. As soon as you get back to earth, you would regain your powers." Kish said simply.

"You..Forgot..To..Tell...Me..THAT?" said Ichigo through clenched teeth.

"Sorry, didn't occur to me that you would actually use your powers here." Shrugged Kish.

Smoke came out of Ichigo's ears.

Kish, seeing this, quickly made up an excuse to disappear.

"I..uh...I think Pai needs help with his computer....you stay here.." Kish hurried off, leaving a very angry and helpless Ichigo in his room.
"So Sama, you are saying that one of Ichigo Momomiya's parents could be one of us.." said Pai slowly, taking this in.

"Yes." Said Deep Blue coldly. "That could explain the extraordinary powers she have."

"But what good would the powers be to us? Wouldn't it be all good anyway?" asked Pai.

"Yes, it would. If Ichigo decides that she and her powers would like to stay on the good side." Deep Blue said.

"Her, and her powers? Hasn't she already chose the good side?" asked Pai.

"The before her has. But the new her could not yet take total control of her powers yet. Her newly revealed power not even she knows where it came from. The period of time when she somehow turns into a cat? That's when the power is slowly growing inside her, coming out. Since she could not yet take total control of her powers, we are going to use that knowledge to help us. If we play our cards right, we might just be able to convince her to our side." Deep Blue said coldly.

Pai remained silent.

"Update Kish and Taruto on this. Also, remind Kish that if anything happens to the girl, he will be the first one to die." Deep Blue said before disappearing.

Pai stared at the place where Deep Blue was, a face of confusion and worry.
"You asked?" asked Kish to Pai.

Pai took a deep breath and sighed.

"Yes." He answered.

"Well? What does he want Ichigo for?" asked Kish impatiently.

"Deep Blue Sama said that...Ichigo..might not be what she seems..."Pai trailed off.

"What the hell does that mean?" asked a frustrated Kish.

"It means that Ichigo might have more power than she realize. Than all of us realizes. It means that one of her parents might not be human. One of them could have being an alien, just like us. That parent must have passed his/her powers to Ichigo." Pai said simply.

Kish was silent for a long time.

"But what does all this got to do with Ichigo? What does Deep Blue wants?" Kish asked quietly.

"Sama Kish. Deep Blue Sama." Pai reminded him.

Kish waved an impatient hand in the air. "yeah, whatever. Answer my question"

Pai sighed.

"Deep Blue Sama wants Ichigo to join our side. He want her powers, he wants her powers to help him conquer this planet. He wants her powers to win the final battle." Pai said.

"How...is he going to manage that?" asked Kish slowly.

"I don't know yet. But it seems as if Sama wants her to join our side with a willing heart, and helps us to win our planet back." Pai said.

Kish let out a cold laugh.

"Ichigo is never going to betray her own family and friends. She has already chosen her side. And she has already shown me what she thinks of us." Said Kish sadly.

"Sama believes that Ichigo have no control of her powers yet. We are going to use this time to persuade her powers are meant to be used to help us." Pai said.

"How are we going to do that? It won't...endanger Ichigo in anyway would it?" asked a worried Kish.

"That, I am not sure of....but as long as Deep Blue Sama needs Ichigo, she will be safe." Pai said quietly.

Kish stayed silent.

"Also Kish, Sama has told me to tell you that if anything happens to Ichigo..hinting hat if you somehow let her escape.. it would be your head that's paying for this thing." Pai said slowly.

Kish looked at Pai coldly.

"Tell Sama that that would not happen" Kish said coldly before turning around to walk off.

"Kish." Pai called out.

Kish stopped walking but did not turn around.

"Don't...use your heart Kish....It won't do any good to you.." pai said quietly to Kish's back.

Kish was silent. He continued to walk off without a word.

"One day, the mew mews are going to destroy us. Totally." Pai murmured softly to no one.
Kish walked back into the room and saw Ichigo still sitting in the position he left her in.

Kish sighed, thinking about what Pai just said. It may sound easy, but it is truly hard for him not to love Ichigo. He might seems to be obsessed with her, but he also truly loves her. Too bad she can't understand.

Kish's thoughts were interrupted by Taruto's voice.

"Yes what?" he asked impatiently.

"Pai asked you to bring the hag. Deep Blue Sama wants to see all of us." Came Taruto's voice.

Ichigo looked up at Kish.

Kish was silent for a while.

"Tell Sama that I will in a few minutes." Kish said, eyes never leaving Ichigo's face.

"What does he want from me?" asked Ichigo in a small voice. "I don't even have my powers anymore. What good would I be to him?"

"Don't think so much Ichigo. Remember, I'll protect you if anything happens." Said Kish softly.

Ichigo looked at Kish, lost.

Kish quickly regained his coldness.

"Follow me. Don't even think of escaping." He said threateningly.

Ichigo sighed and followed Kish out of his room.
"They are here Sama." Said Pai, bowing his head.

Deep Blue observed this girl standing in front of him. The more he studied her face, the more familiar it looked to him.

"yes...I am correct...Yukiko....my dear Yukiko....." Deep Blue whispered.

Kish coughed.

"May I just ask Sama, um..are there any orders you would like to be done?" he asked.

Deep Blue snapped out of his trance.

"Indeed." He said coldly. "Girl. Do you know why I captured you and brought you here?"

Ichigo slowly shook her head.

"I, brought you here because I want to tell you something that you do not know, something about you family." Deep Blue said quietly.

Ichigo finally found her voice.

"Sorry Deep Blue Sama" Ichigo said sarcastically "I think I know about my family enough. I do not need an outsider to explain to me about my family."

Ichigo stood up and prepared to leave when Kish dragged her down.

"If you still want to live then don't move." He mumbled.

Ichigo glared at him but stayed anyway.

Deep Blue let out a cold laugh.

"You think you know everything don't you. Then, how do you explain your sudden ability to change into a cat? How do you explain the sudden amount power you gained when protecting the blue knight?" challenged Deep Blue.

Ichigo remained silent.

"Let me tell you girl. The reason you can change into a cat is the first sign of your power awakening. You have shown so much power when you protected that idiot is when your powers decided to come out, and reveal itself." Deep Blue said to Ichigo.

"That is a load of rubbish Deep Blue. I know about my powers. I know about why I can change into a cat. So don't think you can confuse me." Said Ichigo angrily. She stood up once again and shrugged out of Kish's grasp and turned to leave.

"Your parents now are not your true parent girl." Deep Blue said to the back of Ichigo.

Ichigo turned around to look at his foggy form.

"Wh..what do you mean.." she asked.

"I mean. That one of your parents are actually one of us. Aliens." He said simply. "Your mum came from our planet on a mission to eliminate all humans. She, has fallen for a human being, though one with special powers."

"Where are they now? Can you prove it?" challenged Ichigo.

"Your mum is called Yukiko. Your so called dad abandoned you when he found out that your mum is actually sent to rid of the humans. Your dad left you and your mum, all alone, in the world o suffer." Deep Blue continued "Of course our planet would not accept your mum back any more. She betrayed us. Betrayed our race."

"Where are they now?" asked Ichigo again.

"Your parents are both dead. Your dad was killed in a battle. Your mum committed suicide after she heard the news of your dad's death." Deep Blue said.

Ichigo laughed. A sad Laugh.

"If you think I would be stupid enough to fall under your spell Deep Blue, you are wrong." Ichigo said.

Deep Blue sighed. This is harder than he thought.

"You don't have to believe me Ichigo. You can go and think about it. But you should remember that since you are basically half alien, we would not hurt our own race. Take your time. Think about this, if you change your mind about believing, you can always come back and talk to me again." Said Deep Blue, trying the kinder approach this time.

Ichigo's expression softened.

"Kish, Take her back to the rooms." Deep Blue said.

Kish and the others bowed and stood up. Kish took a confused Ichigo back to his room.
"Confused much?" asked Kish.

Ichigo slowly nodded, shocked at what she and just found out.

"Ichigo.." Kish started.

Ichigo looked up at him with her chocolate eyes.

"No...never mind" sighed Kish.

Ichigo couldn't take it anymore. She burst into tears. Kish took one look at her and took her in his arms. To his surprise, Ichigo didn't refuse.

"Sh...It will be okay...I'll help you..." Kish murmured into her hair.

Ichigo looked into his eyes.

"It will be alright..." said Kish as his face inched closer and closer to Ichigo's...
