Aspen felt like he wanted to cry. Day after day, battle after battle. Will it ever end? He didn't know he was being watched. The same woman from before smirked, Aspen was alone. Now was her chance. She put her hood up so he would'nt know she was a human, and she walked up to him.
"Excuse me young man?"
Aspen looked up, tears brimming in his eyes. He had been crying, it was obvious. "Y-Yes?..."
"You look troubled. Is something bothering you?" She asked.
Aspen gulped, no way he could tell the exact truth. He didn't like lying but he didn't want to stir up more trouble...
"M...My friends are fighting...I don't like it... I don't have a say in any of it...I can't stop it..."
All according to plan. She smiled sympathetically, or so it seemed. "You poor dear. Here, have this candy. It's the best I can do."
Aspen didn't know what to do, this lady was being nice to him.
"T...Thank you..." He replied, taking the candy. It was a candy drop. He opened it and popped it in his mouth.
Heh, foolish boy. Now all I must do is snap my fingers and you will be under my controll. The woman thought. "How is the candy?"
"Good.." Aspen replied. The woman smiled.
"That's good."
"ASPEN!" Nanami called. Before Aspen had time to blink the woman was gone.
Nanami ran up to Aspen, she noticed he had been crying.
"There you are! Are you alright?" She asked.
Aspen got flusttered and spun around. "Y-Yes..."

They were at it again, only this time Kisshu was fighting Ichio, she was still a little dazed from what happened the other day.
"You don't look too good Koneko-chan." Kisshu teased. Ichigo hissed.
"Shut up you alien bastard!"
"Ooooh that hurt Koneko-chan!"
Ichigo sent a death glare toward Kisshu. She hated when Kisshu 'played' with her.
"You know Ichigo..." Kisshu said. "I just want the same thing as you, to protect my people! YOU are the alien in our eyes!"
Ichigo was confused now. "What?"
" All I want is to protect my family! This planet you live on? It used to belong to MY people! Can't you see?" Kisshu said. "In a way...We are Earth dwellers like you. We used to live here-"
"SHUT UP!" Ichigo screamed. "SHUT UP! STOP TRYING TO FOOL ME!"
Those words seemed to hurt Kisshu on the inside. "...I'm not.."
