The Power of Love

"W..why are you doing this, Nushka?"

"I.. I TOLD YOU, MY NAME'S DARKEST INDIGO AND YOU HUMAN, ARE AT MY MERCY."

Ichigo stood up and clenched her fist in defiance," Why are you doing this?"

"B…b…because…I …I…" Nushka clenched her fist, " I…I…" She looked up. Her eyes seemed softer and the yellow in them had a warm glow. "I…I…." Ichigo held out her hand. "I…I…" As Nushka held out her hand to Ichigo's, her eyes suddenly glowed bright yellow again. She screamed, "I am Darkest Indigo and I need no one's HELP!"

"You will have to DIE NOW, Kitty," Before anyone could do anything, she hit the self-destruct button.

Only one thought flashed through Ichigo's mind at that moment, "RYOU!"

When the smoke cleared, she searched desperately for his body. She had been saved by Kish's forcefield while the Mews had been saved by the bubble that imprisoned them. However, the impact of the explosion broke burst it but the girls were unharmed.

"No, Ryou. Where are you? Ryou?" Ichigo sniffed. The tears blurred her vision but she continued to look through the rubble that were once Kish's spaceship.

"Looking for this, Kitty?" Indigo held out a limp body, "I wouldn't give up such a cute little plything so easily." She smirked.

Ichigo wiped her tears away. "Are you going to stand there talking, or are you going to fight?"

"Are you challenging me, Kitty?" Indigo sneered.

" I said ARE YOU GOING TO FIGHT OR JUST STAND THERE YAPPING AWAY YOU UGLY WITCH!"

"Grrrr….You'll pay for that, Kitty!"

"Kish, protect the rest,"

"Ichigo. Please….." Kish pleaded. He caught the glare that she gave him. "A…all right. "

"Amethyst Razor Slasher!" Indigo attacked while Ichigo's back was turned.

"Hah, Looks like this battle is over, Kitty."

"Not quite, Nushka." Ichigo lowered her staff. The forcefield that protected her melted away.

"The power of love will defeat you. RIBBON STRAWBERRY LOVE HEALING!" a gigantic flash of light exploded out of her staff.
