"What are you…?" a woman squealed besides her husband in the corner of the room. In front of them, is a ten years old girl; her eyes are cold and it seems like she was about to finish them up.
"I'm out of here, mother," said the girl tearfully. She then looked at her hand and concentrate on it. She held it an inch from the pairs and suddenly, the woman and the man shudder and became unconscious. The girl walked away from the room, leaving her parents behind.

"Well class," says Mr. Narumi cheerfully. "Today you're going to have a new friend. She just discovered her Alice recently, so please help her around, okay? You can come in now, Miss. Rui," the ten years old girl comes in and faces the crowds.
"A new student?" thought Mikan.
"Hello," the girl smiles timidly. "I'm Yumeka Rui and I'm ten years old. My friends back home called me Yume-chan. Nice to meet you all,"
"Perhaps you can introduce your Alice, Yumeka?" asks Mr. Narumi.
Yumeka nods and answers, "My Alice is, well, manipulating minds," Mr. Narumi then let her sit besides Hotaru and starts the lesson. Hotaru seems to not care at all about her new classmate and continues paying attention to the lesson.
But Yumeka feels like she should say something to Hotaru. So she whispers, "Hey, there, what's your name? Nice to meet you by the way," Hotaru turns her head to see Yumeka. "Hotaru Imai," she says quietly. Yumeka then gasps. "You're Imai's sister!" she almost cries.
"You know my brother?"
"Yeah, my brother told me about him all the time,"
"That's great, Yumeka, Hotaru, but I'm teaching here, you know," Mr. Narumi suddenly appears. "Honestly, Yumeka. The first day and you're already busy talking,"
"I'm sorry," says Yumeka.
"Oh, well. Just pay attention, okay?" Mr. Narumi is saying, as he goes back to the front of the class. "So, now, there's…" he continues what he was saying, and this time, Hotaru pays close attention to it. But Yumeka is not listening to a word of what the teacher speeches. Her mind is on her brother and on her thoughts about the Academy.
Thirty minutes has passed, and the bell rings. Hotaru immediately gets up, and so do Yumeka and some other students. They all walk to the class door noisily together. That is, until Mikan hugs Hotaru and got Yumeka a shock.
"Hotaru! Let's eat!" she says.
"Get off me, baka," Hotaru ignores her and keeps on walking. "Wow, she's (sort of) rood," thought Yumeka.
"Oh, but why? We're supposed to be best friends!" Mikan squeals.
"But I don't want to get any of your stupid germs, do I?" says Hotaru bluntly. "Harsh!" Yumeka thought about them again. "Best friends much?"
"Oh," Mikan finally notices Yumeka being there. "Hey, you're the new girl, Yume-chan, right?" she says cheerfully; as usual. "I'm Mikan Sakura, nice to meet you,"
"Nice to meet you,"
Then there were a pink haired girl, a blue haired one, and a boy with glasses coming towards them. "Hey, Mikan, let's go to the park," Nonoko, Yu, and Anna says. "You can come too, Yume-chan," Yu says to the rather confused Yumeka.
"Okay, thank you!" Yumeka smiled.
