Introduction.

Eleven and twelve years old. Mikan and co were now having a sort of peace of life. After what happened with Mikan's life, they were able to settle down a lot of things. First of all, Mikan and Natsume were known to be the couple of the day(s) and year(s). Therefore, a long and hard relationship was about to begin with between two spectacular persons: Hotaru and Ruka. However, things will soon be disturbed by a news that would break off a part of their newly life.

"Happy birthday, Mikan." Shouted a group of students in a classroom. They were surrounding a brunette girl with long hair and tied up in a low ponytail. She was looking at them with surprised as she held down a raven haired boy's sleeves. She then got tears flowing down her cheeks. Everyone did not know what to do at this moment. But she got the most beautiful and sweetest smile they ever had seen in their life.

"Thank you." Said she with a broken yet sweet voice. She smiled and the day went by so fast.

And finally, the night came. She was left alone with three more persons under a Sakura tree. They went out of the party earlier compared to the other. They had to stay alone for some matters. And they knew perfectly it would be their last moment to be together. Yes, it would be their last before a long moment.

"I don't want to go."

"Mikan, you can't do anything about it. You have to listen to what the Academy asked you to do." Said a raven haired and unemotional girl.

"But…"

"Imai is right. Either way it's not as if we won't see each other anymore." Added a blond haired boy while the raven haired girl nodded.

"Ruka… Hotaru…" said Mikan as she looked at the last boy and who was right beside her.

"And if you have any problems out there, we'll come to fetch you." He said looking at her in eyes. "And I'll burn them all until there's nothing left of them." Muttered he with a dark aura surrounding and a pure red fire ball appeared in his right hand.

"Natsume?!" said Mikan as she laughed at him and they all did. She put her head on his shoulder. She smiled slightly as her eyes glow in a blissful chocolate light. "Yes, I'll be coming back in a way to another."

The night ended in a perfect timing with the sky full of stars, which glow in a magnificent light.

Two days later, everyone was back to class. It was almost time for them to prepare for their exam, graduation and New Year in an upper class. However, only one person would not be able to have it with them all: Sakura Mikan. She was now in America for a job asked by the Higher.

Mikan was now known as the sweetest and the most beautiful girl of the Academy. There was no one who would not know her existence. After all, she was the Black Cat's girl, Hyuuga Natsume. Therefore, she was the High Section Head Master's niece. Everyone would ask how she can be his niece, who was really not 'calmed'. And she was not good with her studies, especially in Mathematiques. All the teachers liked her a lot but only Jinno was really strict towards her. It was scary in a way.

Also, Mikan, sweet as an Angel, had a real big reputation in the Alice's world. You would say she was an ordinary girl with no Alice and who was thrown into a world full of magic and fantasy, just like Alice in Wonderland written by Lewis Caroll. There was almost no difference between them. Innocent as she was, she was pulled here and there by a Rabbit who was indeed a big stubborn Black Cat. However the end was different, Alice did not end up with the Rabbit, good thing to hear; on contrary Mikan who was the Black Cat's girlfriend. This was truly a beautiful and sweet end… that is what we would like to say. Reality was hurtful than illusion.

These two, after long and complicated moment, were separated for an unknown moment. Mikan was sent to America. The reason was unknown to them. And nobody knew anything about it, not even the teachers. It was strange, but there was no answer. Everyone would have thought that was about a transfer student, but it would be Hotaru who would have gone… normally.

So how was it? Please Review so I know what is good and what is bad. And thank you for reading.
