Chapter 1

Mikan: Hi!

Me: Hi everyone!

Mikan: Natsume say hi!

Natsume: Hn.

Me: In this fan fiction, Natsume, Ruka, Mikan, and Hotaru will go to America! They will meet lots of people and run into trouble, as always. Anyway, in my first fanfic (Everything New Under the Sun) I realized that I made Natsume way to nice. So, Natsume's going to change back to his old grumpy self in this story!

Natsume: Hn.

Ruka: ChilyBear does not own Gakuen Alice!

Mikan: Where'd he come from?

Me: Dunno.

"Natsume, Ruka, Hotaru, and Mikan. The high school principal would like to see you four," Jinno said. They went out the door.

"Wonder what he wants us for…" Ruka said.

"I don't know. Natsume do you know?" Mikan asked.

"Hn." The four arrived at the principal's office.

"Hi Uncle!" Mikan said.

"Hello Mikan!" The HSP said.

"Why are we here?" asked Hotaru.

"We thought you four would like to go to America," the HSP told them.

"America?" said Ruka.

"Yes, we would like you four to study there for at least a few years."

"So when are we leaving?" Mikan asked.

"Tonight. That's why I called you here to find out if it was okay with you."

"Fine," everyone except for Natsume said.

"Natsume?" asked the HSP.

"Hn."

"I take that as a yes."

"Alright everyone. You should pack and tell everyone about your departure." The four kids left the office.

"Wow! America! It'll be so much fun!" Mikan said.

"Yeah, I agree Sakura," Ruka told her.

Now the four kids were standing in front of Alice Academy, American branch. It was located in Los Angeles, California. A man came up to the gates.

"You guys must be the exchange students from Japan," he said.

"Yes, we are," Ruka replied.

"Yes, yes, come in." He opened the gates only halfway, and they walked in. The gates then closed.

"I am Mr. Z. How was your trip to America?" he asked them.

"Very good," Mikan said. He handed them each a map of the academy.

"This branch is much bigger than the one in Japan. We have many cases of kids getting lost, especially in the Eastern Woods. You will be in class 8-1," he told them. He also handed them a manila folder. "This folder has all your information. What star rank, what food you get, your allowance, and your room number and key."

A girl with glasses and a boy walked towards them.

"Ah… the class reps are here," Mr. Z said.

The girl had light green glasses, and had light brown hair that was slightly wavy and went down to the middle of her back. Her eyes were dark green, and she was holding a binder. The boy also had light brown hair, and his eyes were a dark blue. He was walking slightly behind her. They were both pretty tall.

The girl said, "Hello, my name is Kimberly Johnson, and this is Joseph Pierce. You can just call me Kim. You must be Mikan Sakura, Natsume Hyuuga, Hotaru Imai, and Ruka Nogi. Nice to meet you all."

"What's in the binder?" asked Mikan.

"Nothing much really, just something she carries around," Joseph said.

"Joe!" she elbowed him.

"What are your alices?" Ruka asked.

"Mine is chemistry alice, and his is teleportation. What are your alices?" Kim asked.

"Hotaru's is invention, Ruka's is animal pheromones, Natsume's is fire, and I have Nullification and S.E.C. which stands for Steal, Erase, Copy," Mikan replied.

Joseph whispered something into Kim's ear. She immediately elbowed him in the stomach. "Don't be an idiot Joe!" She looked at the four. "Sorry, but Joe is an extreme idiot. If you guys looked at your folders, you'll all be triple stars. And I know that you, Natsume, was a special star in Japan. I'm sorry, but that's how the principal wanted it. Joe here, will lead you to class. Since he's being a total idiot." With that she left towards the building leaving Joseph all alone with the four.

"You guys can call me Joe if you want. Everyone else does." He led them through the hallway and stopped.

"Sorry, but I have to go, the classroom is straight down the hallway and to the left. It's the last room." Joe ran and left them. The group continued to walk down the hallway when Mikan bumped into someone.

"I'm so sorry!" Mikan blurted.

"Whatever, Polka-dots. Just get off," someone said.

"Natsu- Wait… Natsume's standing next to me." Mikan looked and saw a girl.

"You pervert!" Mikan yelled at the girl. All of a sudden, Natsume grabbed Mikan's waist.

"I'm the only one who can call her that," he said defensively.

"Hm… Whatever," the girl said. She had black hair and eyes so dark, they almost looked black. She was wearing spandex shorts, so that no one would see her underwear, unlike Mikan.

"RINA CHU GET BACK HERE RIGHT NOW!" someone yelled.

"Damn…" the girl muttered. She started to run, when Kim and Joe jumped out and grabbed her arms.

"Target captured," Kim said. Surprisingly, Rina didn't try to struggle. Joe lifted her up and put her on his shoulder. The four exchange students were watching in awe and shock. A different boy came up and kissed her on the forehead. Her body went limp, and Joe walked off triumphantly toward the classroom.

Kim walked towards the four still in daze. "That girl you bumped into Mikan, is Rina Chu. No one knows anything about her. She's scary to be near, and all the boys love her. She has her own fan club started by a boy named John Hayes. Her Alice is a secret. She refused to tell anyone. I would stay away from her if I were you."

"Who was the boy that kissed her forehead?" asked Mikan.

"That's Lucas Wong. He has human pheromones. He's our main tool in preventing Rina from escaping. Anyway let's go to class." They went to the classroom. When they entered, Rina was laying down on a desk.

"Ah… The exchange students. We've been waiting for you. I'm Mr. Lee," the teacher said. Mr. Lee clapped twice to get the students' attention.

"Class we have four exchange students from the branch in Japan. Please introduce yourselves."

"I'm Mikan Sakura. I have Nullification Alice and Steal, Erase, and Copy."

She looked at Natsume who looked at Ruka.

"The idiot who won't introduce himself, is Natsume Hyuuga. He has fire alice," Mikan said. She glared at Natsume who looked at Ruka.

"I'm Ruka Nogi and I have animal pheromones Alice."

"I'm Hotaru Imai and I have invention Alice."

"Any questions?" asked Mr. Lee.

A hand shot up. A girl asked, "Natsume? Are you single?"

Natsume replied, "No." A couple whines were heard.

Another girl asked, "Natsume, who's your girlfriend?"

"Someone, no more questions about my social life, or I'll burn you," he said.

"Aw… He's so hot when he's angry." someone whispered.

Mr. Lee clapped his hands again. "Natsume and Mikan, you'll be Rina's partners when she wakes up. Ruka, you'll be partners with Joe, and Hotaru, you'll be partners with Kim. You will sit next to your partners. Everyone free period. Be nice to the transfer students, and when Rina wakes up pull the alarm." Mr. Lee left, and the whole class burst into talking. All the girls went up to Ruka, since Natsume was taken. Kim and Joe went and sat close to the alarm in case Rina woke up. The boys crowded around Rina, waiting for her to wake up. Lucas waited by the windows, in case Rina decided to jump out the window.

"Man, it looks like everyone's preparing for Rina to wake up," Mikan commented.

"Of course, she's the most dangerous one in the class. No one even knows her Alice which makes it scarier," a girl said. "My name is Hanna Wu."

"Hi Hanna," Mikan said cheerfully, "Will you excuse me for a second?" Mikan went over to where Natsume was sitting.

"Hey Natsume. Did you notice something about Rina's eyes?" Mikan asked.

"No."

"Her eyes were just like yours when I first met you."

"Hn."

"That means she must be in the same situation."

"Hn."

"Anyway, what abilities class are you in?"

"Special. You?"

"Special. Wait, why were you put in Special?"

"How am I supposed to know?"

"I can answer that for you," Hanna said.

"Really?" asked Mikan.

"Yeah. You see in America things run a little differently than in Japan. In America, the army takes care of missions you might do in Japan. So, basically, the Dangerous Abilities Class is for bad kids, like Rina."

"Oh… So Natsume, isn't a bad kid, so he was placed in Special."

"Yeah."

"Hn."

"But why does the army take care of missions?" Mikan asked.

"In America, there's a law against child abuse, so sending a child on missions is a form of child abuse. Plus, the president is against risking children's lives who have potential of doing great things, so we have a separate 'army' made of adults who have alices that do missions."

RING RING RING RING RING

"Looks like Rina woke up," Hanna commented. Rina stood up and ran towards the window. Lucas grabbed her ankle and pulled her, but Rina kicked him in the stomach. She jumped out the window and landed softly on the grass.

"Darn. Let's go, Hanna," Lucas said. The two also jumped out the window and landed. They chased her. Mikan and Natsume followed. Rina ran and ran. Hanna and Lucas were close, and Rina was slowing down. When Lucas and Hanna were about to grab her, Rina suddenly jumped. She landed neatly onto a tree branch and jumped through the trees.

"Damnit, call Aly," Hanna said.

Lucas whistled a rapid tune. A girl with red hair and blue eyes came their direction.

"She's headed east through the trees," Hanna said.

"Roger," the girl saluted and flew off.

"That's Aly, she has the flying Alice."

Everyone heard a sharp whistle. A giant hawk came and landed.

"Everyone hop on!" Ruka said. He was running towards them. Everyone was on the hawk, and Ruka gave the signal. The hawk soared. All of a sudden Hanna jumped off. "Thanks for the ride Ruka," she said. A little further, Lucas jumped off. "Thanks," said Lucas. Natsume grabbed Mikan and jumped off. "Thanks Ruka," Natsume told him. Mikan screamed, but Natsume covered her mouth. He landed neatly on a tree branch carrying Mikan. Rina was running towards them at top speed. She jumped over them cleanly and kept running. Natsume put Mikan down.

"Come on, we might as well help them." Natsume and Mikan ran through the trees. Hanna and Lucas were close behind. All of a sudden, the four pursuers stopped. They had reached the East wall, and Rina was nowhere in sight.

"Look!" Mikan said. Rina was underneath them. She looked up and saw them. She started to run again.

"Get her!" Lucas yelled. The four of them jumped down and ran. They ran and ran and ran until they bumped into something, but they didn't know what they ran into. It was invisible.

"Damnit. She must've known about this. Now we're in the Eastern Woods how will we get out," Hanna muttered. Rina appeared.

"Found you!" Lucas said. He ran towards her, but she dodged.

"Don't use your Alice. You need to find a way out right? I can do that, but you can't tell anyone about what you see here," Rina said.

Hanna and Lucas looked at each other. Hanna nodded.

"Deal," Lucas said. Rina flicked her wrist. A dragon made out of blue fire appeared.

"What the…" Lucas said. Rina flicked her other wrist. Another dragon appeared but it was made out of normal red fire.

"What kind of Alice is that?" Hanna asked.

"I just have a really advanced fire alice, and I can put life into the things I make with my Alice temporarily," Rina said. Rina climbed onto the blue dragon.

"Natsume and Lucas on the red one, and Natsume you should be the to drive. That's why I didn't make it out of blue fire. Hanna and Polka-dots, you're with me," Rina said. She made two reins, one blue and one red. She threw the red one to Natsume.

"It'll put the reins on itself. Just hold onto the reins and follow me," she told him. Rina whistled twice, and the dragons took off. They flew low in the trees, so that no one could see them. Rina stopped, and then Natsume stopped.

"Why'd you stop? We only have a short distance to go," Hanna said.

"This is a secret, what would happen if I landed right in front of the building? Everyone would see," Rina told her, "Everyone off." She patted the two dragons on the head. "Good job you guys. See you soon." The dragons disappeared, and everyone started to head towards the building.

"Wait, Lucas use your Alice on me," Rina said.

"Why?"

"Because we have to make it look like you captured me, duh…" Lucas kissed Rina on the hand, and she fainted. Hanna set Rina on her shoulder, and headed towards the building.
