The Rescue: Chapter 1

It was a warm summer night, and fire flies danced in the air while the crickets played their own song.

A gravel path wound it's way through the park and was only visible due to the fact that light posts

lined each side separated only by a foot or two each. Trees dotted the land while there were nicely

maintained gardens, stone benches were placed in the most scenic spots. Not many were out this

night, the moon hid behind the lurid clouds, and the stars were barely visible. A small sniffle could be

heard from behind a group of bushes but since no one was out the sound was not investigated,

except for a mischievous alien named Kish. Kish shoved his hands in his pocket and huffed like a

little kid who did not get his way. "I can't find Ichigo any where, she wasn't at the cafe, or at her

house..." He gave another frustrated huff, as he kicked up a bit of gravel and was followed with a bit

of dust. Another small sniffle was followed by a pathetic whimper, being Kish he couldn't resist the

urge to find the creature who made such pitiful noises. He poked his head around the bushes and he

then saw the crumpled up Ichigo. She wore a pair of plain jeans with a pink shirt, the pair both

excentuated her newly formed curves and Kish definitely liked it. Although it broke his heart to see

her in such a state, he moved out of the bush and over to her side. "Kitten?" Ichigo was laying in the

fetal position her head buried in her arms. She sniffed again and looked up, her eyes red and puffy

and tear stains ran down each cheek. Even though it appeared she had cried herself out it seemed

that that was not the case as fresh tears formed in her eyes once more. "K-Kish...g-go...a-away..."

Kish frowned but he wouldn't be told off so easily, she would have to do a lot more then that to get

rid of him. He managed to pull her up and set her on his lap where he brought her head to rest on his

chest. Ichigo only resisted for a moment before she let her exhaustion overcome her and she relaxed

in Kish's hold. He let his hand run through her hair over and over again as his chin rested on the top

of her head. "Aw...Kitten...tell Kish what is the matter...I will do my best to make it all better."

Ichigo groaned but then just sighed as she let some of the tension release. "It's...Masaya..." Her

voice sounded broken and hurt and all Kish cared about was helping her and making her feel better,

then he would get to the jerk Masaya and take care of him...but that was later. Kish was brought

out of his reverie by the sound of her voice once again. "He...was...s-sleeping with some other

girls...and I confronted him hoping it wasn't true...but it was a bad idea I soon found out. I-I didn't

know Kish..." Tears fell down freely once again and Kish brought her face up to look at him and he

placed a kiss on the tears a warm and comforting look on his face. "What did you not know

Kitten?" He asked, he was indeed slightly interested now, what Mr. Perfect Masaya had done. "He

had begun to drink...Masaya...good ole' Masaya...he was drunk and he slurred alot but he managed

to slap me...hard too..." She placed a hand over the place on her cheek where it was still slightly

pink. "He t-told me that he was angry...that I wouldn't s-sleep with him...so he told me it

was...was...over..." Ichigo broke down again. "Kitten if you do not stop crying you shall shrivel and

die and I so badly do not want that to happen." He kissed her forehead a innocent lopsided grin on

his face. Ichigo even though she felt awful could not help but laugh at his sweet humor. Why had she

not seen Kish like this before? Maybe she was too set on loving Masaya that her and Kish were a

no...but what about now? Could she love Kish?
