Chapter 1: Birthday Nightmare! Welcome to GA?
BANG! BANG!
It wasn't supposed to be like this! Today was my 13th birthday and I had plans of eating cake and lighting sparklers with grandpa in the backyard. It wasn't supposed to turn into my nightmare. Rushing around, I pushed my auburn hair out of my face as my hazel eyes scanned every window of the rooms I ran through.
Following Grandpa I ran up the stairs trying to escape the men in black suits who seemed to be covering every window and door of our house. I had been living with him ever since I was 7, the year my parents were assassinated by the same scary men who were coming after me now. Cowering in the corner of my bedroom, I cried as I heard the sound of feet making their way up the stairs.
Grandpa placed himself in front of me as the footsteps drew closer. Glancing over his shoulder he gave me a sad smile and with a pleading voice he murmured "Mikan I love you, always remember to look for the good through the bad."
With that my bedroom door busted open revealing two black suited men who wasted no time in rushing towards Grandpa and I. Trembling as I watched Grandpa be hurled into the wall across my room by one of the men I gasped. How did he do that? He never even came close to grandpa! Before I knew it I was being thrown over one of the men shoulder as I stared wide eyed at the man forming a gun in his hand out of thin air. Thrashing against the back of the man carrying me I watched as the man took aim and shot my grandpa right before my eyes.
Why!
Why kill Grandpa when you already had me in your grasp!
Silent tears ran down my face as tremors rocked my body. Grandpa's words filled my head as I shook off the echoing voice. There was no good to look for. I always brought the bad people. They were lead to mom and dad because of me, and now grandpa too.
"MONSTER!" was the only word that escaped my lips as anger, pain, and horror washed throughout my body.
That was the last word I screamed before a bright light enveloped the room and my mind fell into the black.
Cracking open my eyes I stared at the white ceiling as I stretched, waiting for whatever pain my body had been put through while my mind was on vacation. Only a bit of soreness had taken over my muscles as my body rested back into place.
"Ah, I see you've finally awakened Ms. Sakura."
My body shot forward hearing the feminine male voice that had spoken to me. Spotted off to my left was a man probably aged in his late twenties with blonde hair to his shoulders, purple eyes looking calm yet cautiously at my startled expression.
"Who are you? And where am I?" I said frightened as I backed away. Maybe he was the one who had sent the scary men in black after me. He was probably now seeking revenge for not being able to capture me the first time when he sent his men after me while I was with my parents.
He smiled at me before standing and walking towards me slowly. He then extended his hand and said,
"I'm Narumi sensei and Welcome to Alice Academy MIkan-chan!"
"Eh?" My jaw has officially hit the floor and I can feel my eyes popping out of my sockets as I shook Narumi sensei's hand.
"You've been passed out for 3 days Mikan-chan. Your mind needed to rest after the trauma you went through. The guards and I showed up right when the AAO (Anit-Alice Organization) was trying to leave your grandfathers house with you. We were able to get you back from them but not capture them. Now tell me Mikan do you know what an Alice is?"
I hesitantly shook my head no before sitting down on the end of the hospital bed across from Narumi.
"Do you know about your parents past?"
Another no came from my shaking head as I looked down ashamed of not knowing what this nice man was seeking.
"Well that's alright dear. Your mother and father were both holders of Alices. They had attended here before escaping when your mother found out she was pregnant with you. Both of your parents were powerful Alices that the AAO was after to control. That is why they faced the gruesome death that they did trying to protect you from being taken, the same as your grandfather. If my mind serves right, the bright light that blasted through the area came from you."
"Me? How did that come from me?"
"Because Mikan you have the nullification and SEC alices. With the nullification alice you can cancel out any other alices that are being used, the SEC stands for Steal, Copy, Erase. Very rare alices you have inherited there dear. So with that being said, you are now a student here in AA where we can keep an eye on you and protect you."
Protection. I finally wouldn't have to worry about running away anymore.
Forcing a small smile onto my face, I looked up to Narumi and asked the question that made his face light up with excitement…
"So when do I start?"
