Well heres the next chapter. (btw i dont really know any medical terms so sorry for the lack of medical stuff)

Kish crushed Ichigo's limp body against his chest and continuously wept. Everyone was stood still watching Ichigo. Ryou bent down next to her and took her wrist.

''Wha-what are you doing''.

''Im checking for her pulse'' he spoke quietly. Everyone was anxious in waiting. Ryou perked up ''There's a faint pulse''.

Everyone who had thought their friend was dead their eyes now lit up in hope.

''Come on everyone we have to quickly get to the van and go to the hospital'' Keiichiro said quickly.

The aliens couldn't teleport them to the hospital since they didnt know where it was. Everyone nodded and Kish gently as possible picked up an unconscience bleeding Ichigo in his arms bridal style.

As they soon got to the van Ryou drove to the nearest hospital exceeding the speed limit but that was not in his mind at the moment.

As soon as they got to the hospital they clambered out of the van and headed for the hospital.

Zakuro using her wit and charm managed to get Ichigo into the private part of the hospital and payed them a fee to keep quiet about the aliens ears.

As they got to the ward a doctor came and as his eyes fell on Ichigo he called the porters. They put her on a bed ''What happened'' the doctor asked.

''She fell of a cliff'' Mint answered him shakily.

''We must get her to the theatre immediately'', with that the porters and nurses pushed the trolley to the theatre.

Kish looked numbly ahead wishing he could do something. Pai put his hand on his shoulder ''There's nothing that you could do you have to trust the human doctors'' it was like he read his mind.

''I feel so helpless Pai I want to do something '' he shaked his head sadly. After a couple of minutes a nurse came out of the door

''What happened is she okay'' Kish immediately asked her after spotting her.

''The doctor is still with her at the moment. I cannot really comment on her condition you may be in for a bit of a long wait im afraid. But you can obviously wait in the waiting room of course, we are doing everything we can''.

Kish slumped on a chair and his buried his face in his hands and groaned out of frustration, he wanted to see his kitty and he wanted to see her now. How the day drastically changed it all started out as a harmless trip to the beach

now Ichigo was in their fighting for her life.

After a couple of hours.

It was night now and Pudding and Tart fell asleep on their chairs. Kish paced the room a couple of time within the hours. At last the doctor appeared with a serious look on his face.

''How is she?''Ryou managed to ask before Kish.

''Well we had to sort out an internal bleeding and she had some pretty bad trauma. She's got a nasty bump to the head. She has two broken ribs and a broken arm and leg . Her brain acted on instincts and tried to protect the body

from harm and fell in to a deep state of sleep. Therefore, im afraid to say she has fallen into a coma is a fifty fifty chance she will wake up. Let's just say the longer she stays in a coma the less likey she will wake up.

But in the meantime things are going as well as expected at the moment''.

Kish took this all in. He knew what a coma was Pai once told him. His face was expressionless

''Could I see her''.

''If it's just you I suppose''. Everyone smiled at him giving him the okay to go.

''Follow me''. Kish followed the doctor into the intensive care ward and there she was.

Ichigo layed on the bed in a hospital gown her chest rising and falling slowly. She was hooked up on various machines and a saline drip. She had an oxygen mask on and there was wires all over the place but Ichigo still looked as serene as ever.

Her red open hair fitted around her face forehead was covered in a bandage so was her left arm and right leg.

Her right arm and left leg was covered in a cast. Her wounds were cleaned although the bruising and cuts still came through, Kish gasped quietly, he suddenly had the urge to take her in his arms and teleport the two of them somewhere.

''If you talk to her she may be able to hear you, I'll give you some privacy don't worry I won't be far'' the doctor walked away he was pretty intrigued about his ears but seeing his distress he let it go.

Kish went over and sat at the chair beside her bedside. He pulled the chair in closer so his face was inches above her and he stroke her hair lovingly.

One of the nurse must have brushed it because now it was soft and like a blanket of silk free of leaves.

He started murmering quietly ''I don't want to lose you Ichigo, if you left me I don't know what I will do. This is all my fault im so sorry if I never returned then we would have never gone on that stupid trip but one good thing came out of it you

finally said yes. I hope you don't change your mind because I already have our future mapped out for us, well I already mapped it out ages ago. But i'll tell you them when you wake up . You are going to be better in no time at all kitty cat because

your strong your much stronger than me''. He chuckled lightly to himself despite the situation. ''There i've admitted it now and you have to wake up soon and say I told you so. I love you....'' he continued to speak to Ichigo

for atleast half an hour till the doctor came

''I think you should let someone else visit her now'' the doctor said softly.''I'll be back soon'' he kissed her on the cheek and reluctunctly peeled himself off the chair and walked back to the waiting room.

''You guys can see her now'' Kish told them. One by one they visited Ichigo but they didn't take as long as Kish they all knew how much he was yearning to be at her side again that and he kept drumming his fingers on the arm rest and kept

tapping his feet. After they all saw her briefly they all sat in the waiting room.

''Well it's getting quite late and we should visit Ichigo in the morning it's not like we can do anything whilst we are here and your parents must be getting worried. I have tried contacting her parents but I can't seem to get a line through to them.'' Ryou spoke.

Everyone apart from Kish nodded sadly in agreement especially the mews they didnt want to leave their friend. ''Well im going to stay here, Pai you couldnt tell my-'' Kish said but was cut of by Pai.

''Yes yes i'll tell your mum'' Pai wasn't not even going to bother advising Kish to go home, he knew how much Ichigo meant to him. Kish smiled at him out of gratitude and walked quickly back to the ward and sat beside Ichigo.

''Hey im back again told you I would come back. I won't ever leave your side''. He held her soft hands and squeezed it gently.

He lay back on the chair gazed at Ichigo. Every so often he would glance at the heart moniter. Very slowly his eye lids began to drop and he fell asleep without realizing it, the last thing he saw was Ichigo.

Lettuce pov

After being dropped off Lettuce went inside. She told her parent's they had a mechanical problem with the van. She wasn't sure she convinced them she wasn't very good at lying nevertheless, they believed her.

She got changed and sat on her bed. She worried for her friend Ichigo she hoped she was ok. There was a slight tapping noise on her window. She jumped slightly in fright.

She heard the tapping again and she warily walked over to her bedroom window. She squinted her eyes to try and make out the figure outside the window.

''Don't worry it's just me'' she heard a voice that put her at rest. She opened the window

''Pai ! What are you doing here''. A wet Pai clambered in the room.

''Well I wanted to see you''.

''You could have just teleported in''.

''I think that would be quite rude''. Taking her by suprise Pai took her hand in his.

''Lettuce today made me think. If you were Ichigo I would be like Kish to. Life is to short to be stubborn I tried to deny it but I can't anymore. I love you Lettuce''. She felt a bit light headed was this really happening?

''I love you to Pai''. It was really happening.

I thought i'd put a bit of fluff between Pai and Lettuce. I'll try and update sooner im not promising anything though read and review!
