Disclaimer- I do not own Tokyo Mew Mew...though I REALLY wish I could. D:
"Kisshu?" a red haired girl called out, stepping into her warm home. Ichigo had just gone shopping, seeing as she was almost out of food. It was a good thing that her parents had left her some money before they left for Paris, or she probably would have starved to death. Dropping the bags on the floor, she quickly took of her jacket and bounded up the stairs her bed room, two steps at a time.
Ichigo slowly opened up her bedroom door, not wanting to scare the golden eyed alien who was probably in her room, she hadn't told him where she was going so he was probably worried sick by now.
"I'm back!" She spoke out, her melodic voice filling the empty room. "Kish?" Ichigo started to get worried, seeing as Kisshu never really went out without telling her. "Kish, if this is a joke, it's not funny." A frown quickly replaced the smile that was on her face seconds before.
"If you don't come out right now, I…" she trailed off, pondering about how she should end the sentence. "I will never let you kiss me again!" The red head exclaimed, putting a hand on her hip. It took a few seconds for her words to finally sink in. "Crap, oh crap, I did not just say that, what's wrong with me, What if I'm turning into a pervert!?" Ichigo mentally screamed, clasping her hands together in hope that she wasn't.
"I d-didn't mean it like t-that," she stuttered, a light blush covering her once cold cheeks. "I just said that s-so you would c-come out. You can kiss me anytime you want!" Again, Ichigo covered her mouth, with her hand, trying to prevent herself from saying anything else so stupid.
"I'm just going to stop talking now..." The red head laughed nervously, and quickly walked out of the room.
"But seriously," Ichigo called over her shoulder, "come out, or I'll get mad at you."
As much as the red head tried to convince herself that Kisshu was alright, that he was probably off goofing around with Pai or Taruto, she couldn't get rid of the nagging feeling at the back of her head that something was wrong.
***
Ichigo was right.
At that moment Kisshu was struggling to get out of the cell which Deep Blue had put him in. After numerous efforts of breaking out, he still failed miserably. Ripping his attention away from the metal bars he quickly glanced at his arm, the wound that Deep Blue had given him had gotten worse, seeing as he didn't have anything to cover it up with, but luckily it had stopped bleeding.
The golden eyed teenager was lucky in general, instead of killing him off completely Deep Blue decided that it would be more fun to watch Kisshu die in pain, leaving him alone in a prison cell. From the time that his 'leader' had disposed of him, the alien had been racking his brain for ideas on how to escape.
Kisshu still had his teleporting ability, but was too weak to use it. The boy was sure that if he even tried flying he would end up collapsing on the floor, so teleporting was out of the question.
Walking over to a corner he slowly sat down, on the hard concrete floor, putting his head on his knees. He would get out of there, he had to.
***
Hours had passed and Ichigo still hadn't seen the alien. The red head had to admit, she did miss him a lot.
"Stop worrying so much Ichigo," she muttered to herself, leaning back on her chair, trying to concentrate on the homework before her. Just because Ichigo had been absent from school for about one week didn't mean that she didn't have any work. Moe, one of Ichigo's friends, had been kind enough to stop by the red head's house every day dropping off any school work that she missed.
"Ugh!" she groaned in frustration. I hate English! Nobody needs this anyways, stupid pronouns, stupid, stupid, stupid!" Ichigo ranted, slamming her pencil down on the desk. Pushing her chair away from the desk, the red head got up and quickly walked out of her stuffy bed room.
"This would be so much easier if Kisshu was here." She thought, coming into her bright kitchen. Ichigo opened the refrigerator and took out a carton of Apple Juice; pouring it into a clear cup she quickly drenched down the drink.
The girl sighed, resting her head against the cool fridge door. "Where could h-"A light 'thump' from upstairs quickly brought the red head out of her thoughts.
"Mew Ichigo?" She heard a soft but icy voice call from her room. Not thinking twice she ran towards the voice.
Bursting through her door, she saw a purple haired alien standing in front of her, a stern yet worried look could be detected on his pale face.
"Pai?" Ichigo squinted, to make sure that her eyes weren't playing tricks on her. "Why would he be here?" She thought, dumbfounded.
"Mew Ichigo," he addressed, his gray eyes flashing. "Normally, I wouldn't come to you asking for help but I will make an exception just this once. I take it you haven't heard from Kisshu today either?"
Ichigo looked as pale as…well an alien. A million questions where going through her head at that second, and she couldn't think of an answer to any of them. She only hoped that her golden eyed alien was alright, but she knew that the answer to that wasn't as she hoped.
