Narrator:
In an empire called Aliceland, somewhere in the middle of Fire Kingdom, there is a young girl about to be born, holding power that no one knows about. At the same time she was born, a book (named Tales of Alices and Alice list) unread for thousands of years fell down on the dusty floor in a long forgotten library in the Yukihira Mansion, a mansion that belongs to the Yukihiras, one of the noble families in the Fire Kingdom. In Aliceland, there are ordinary people and people with alices. People with alices are called an alice and they are well respected by everyone. Alices are supernatural abilities that people can have. In most cases, alices are inherited from parents. Back to the fallen book, a page is shown on the page that opened when the book fell. On this page, there is a list of all the alices that exist or will exist or has existed before. Under a column called legendary alices, there are two alice names under it, nullification and stealing/insertion. These two alices are believed to be just legends and no one believes that they exist. For the reasons above, if you ask someone what a nullification alice is, or what a stealing/insertion alice is, they will most likely frown their eyebrows and ask you what you are talking about. These legendary alices have been forgotten after people decided that they probably don't exist.
In a private room of the Imai Hospital, there is a brown haired woman, lying on a white bed, panting as she gave birth to a small baby with big amber eyes that sparkle like stars in the night. The woman smiled at the newly born baby girl.
"Kazu, what alice does my child have?" the brown haired woman asked while looking towards a stern looking man with blonde hair. The blonde haired man looked at the brown haired woman's green eyes as he showed a bit of sorrow in his eyes.
"Your child does not have any alice," the blonde man named Kazu said solemnly. What they both did not notice was a faint orange glow surrounding the baby, as if shielding it from the world. The glow was very faint but you could see it if you looked very closely at the baby. The brown haired woman showed disappointment in her eyes as she frowned at the baby, as if wishing it to disappear. A man with dirty blonde hair and shiny amber eyes walked in the room as the brown haired woman turned to him.
"Izumi, our daughter has no alice. Should we put her in an orphanage?" The brown haired woman asked. The man with dirty blonde hair, called Izumi, widened his eyes for a moment before he decided to answer.
"Yuka, I think we should keep her after all she is from our blood. It would be quite cruel to put her in an orphanage. We could have another child later on, and this child can be a playmate for our future children. Hopefully, our future children will have alices," Izumi spoke to his wife (the brown haired woman) while thinking about their future. Hearing those words, Yuka nodded her head and decided that they should bear another child to take after them. This child that she had right now can be a playmate for their future child.
"What should we name her then?" Yuka asked Izumi.
"Let's call her Mikan because she looks like you and your name also relates to tangerines," Izumi announced after thinking for a while. The man named Izumi Yukihira, had the ghost manipulation alice while his older brother, Kazumi Yukihira, had the longevity and alice detection alices. The woman, Yuka Azumi Yukihira, owned the instant teleportation alice. Both men and the woman were born from noble families. The journey for the new born girl who is thought to have no alice, named Mikan, had just begun.
