Alice Academy

The car zipped past the trees, further into a place that resembled a forest. The brunette stared out of the window, her eyes looking at everything but seeing nothing at all.

I wonder if my decision was right.. I hope they will forgive for running away like this. Its not as if it's the first time I've done it she thought with a weary smile. The car made a sudden turn, snapping her out of her stupor. She looked up as if she just realized that she was there in the car and her mouth fell open.

Massive.

That was the only thing that came to her mind as she gaped at the sight of the sprawling grounds in front of her and the stately white manor in the exact centre of it. No .Not massive…enormous, colossal, humongously huge would be better adjectives. she thought as the car neared the building. She was still open mouthed when the car came to a stop right in front of those beautifully carved oak doors.She got down from the car and admired the beauty around her as the driver took care of her luggage. She looked around her, taking in the surroundings not realizing that a pair of eyes were following her every move. Geez.. This place is so isolated. Middle of nowhere .One would think that they are trying to hide something very badly. Which of course they are. Her eyes darkened as she turned them towards the sky, a lonely expression in her face.

'Mikan Sakura?'

She turned around at the sound of her name.

'Yes. May I..'

She got cut off when she found her hands being shook, or rather being wringed by a man with sunshine blonde hair and green-blue eyes.

'Wonderful. How was your ride here? Hope it was comfortable. Though I didn't understand why you want to start at the middle of the night. I was looking forward to meet you for so long! I'm sure you'd get along with the other students fabulously, Mikan. Well I can call you Mikan, right?'

Mikan looked at the man standing in front of her with huge eyes as he rambled on.

It took her a moment to realize that he had stopped speaking. She blinked, and answered ,'Of course you can call me Mikan. May I please know your name?'

It was his turn to blink at the sight of her bright smile. He thought that she looked almost like an angel when she smiles. Well, exactly like an angel.

'How stupid of me! Didn't even introduce myself! I'm Mr. Narumi, and I'll be your homeroom teacher. We'll head inside now. I'll have to brief you about the academy and of course you'll need your uniform. So do you want to join today or would you like to settle down today and join tomorrow?'

'I'll join today Mr. Narumi. I'm not tired at all. Actually I feel pretty energized right now.' Mikan replied.

Narumi nodded and smiled at her as he led her through the oak doors and the marble stairs . He took her hand and drew her into a room where another man was already waiting for them by the window. He smiled as Mikan entered the room and walked towards her with an outstretched hand.

'Mikan Sakura right? I'm Mr. Misaki. I'm here to help this moron here in briefing you.' He said, with a meaningful glance at Narumi's direction. Narumi just gave her a goofy grin, as Mr. Misaki continued. 'Do you seriously think I don't know who stole the growing whip seed from the greenhouse? If only Sakura weren't here…'he said with a menacing glint in his eyes. He turned towards Mikan, his expression considerably softer now and motioned her towards a chair. She took her seat and looked expectantly at the two of them.

'Well. I think you already know that you are an Alice user, right Mikan?' started Narumi. Mikan nodded her head. 'And you also know what your Alice is.. Good.' He added as Mikan nodded again. 'As an Alice user you are expected to know how, when and where to use your Alice. Of course you must know how to control your Alice as well. That's what we're her for. But seeing that you have controlled your Alice for so long without any problems, I think that you wouldn't be needing too much help in that field. You are free to use your Alice in the campus, provided that you don't hurt other people.' Mikan's face darkened at this.

Yeah. Never use your Alice to hurt people. Of course these people are to high above to care about things called ideals.

Narumi, oblivious to the change in Mikan continued without a stop. '..Of course we teach the students the basics like Math and History. I'll be your English teacher Mikan. Unlike other high schools you don't have a choice here. Other than that you'll have your classes with your own Alice Type on Saturdays.' And he went on to explain about the Alice types. Mikan listened to him patiently as he explained her about the Latent Types, Technical Types, Somatic and Special Abilities. But what he said next caught Mikan's attention. 'Though these are the four main types. There's also a fifth type, the dangerous abilities. The Alices in this group can be classified in any of the above, but their powers are those considered as dangerous to the school. That's all you need to know about the Types. I think that's all.' He concluded with a big smile, as if he just finished a particularly complicated lecture.

'Now we just need to get your uni..'

'Wait a second, Narumi.' Mr.Misaki interrupted and looked at Mikan. 'As an Alice user you are different from the other normal people. So, for the sake of your own safety and those of others in the Academy, any contact with the outer world will be restricted to letters. Even the letters will be checked before they are sent.' He took a breath and went on, ' Once in a year we give one student The Honour Student award. That student will be allowed to go visit his family for a week and meal tickets from Central Town. Let's say Central Town is our own shopping district. You'll get all you want there. All the other details that you may need are in the envelope. Any questions, Mikan?'

'Yes. What are Mr.Narumi and your Alices?' she asked looking up to them.

' Well Misaki here has the Alice of Plants and I, have the Alice of Human Pheromones. It means I can make people fall for my charms and do my bidding.' Answered Narumi while flipping back his hair. There was a knock on the door. 'Well, that must be your uniform Mikan. Two other pairs have been sent to your room already. But as school will be starting soon, we thought it best not to take you to your room right now.' He explained as he took her new uniform from the man standing outside. ' Your partner will take you to your room later, if its okay with you Mikan.'

'Of course. I don't mind. Where am I supposed to change?' answered Mikan.

'Third door to your left, Mikan. We'll be waiting for you here.'

Mikan took her uniform and left the room. Misaki turned to face Narumi who pretended to be busy arranging the papers on the desk.

'Narumi..'

'Hmm… Yes Misaki?'

' About Mikan's partner… are you sure it'll work out?'

Narumi glanced up at Misaki before getting back to his work.

'Of course it will. Mikan Sakura has exactly what is needed to break through his shield. The rest of the class will also do better with someone like her around. Don't worry.' He added as Misaki tried to interrupt him. 'She can take care of herself. And I won't let anything happen to her.' He said with a determined look on his face.

There was a knock on the door again, as Mikan entered the room, wearing her new uniform. Narumi's eyes widened as Mikan turned around in a circle.

' So, how do I look?'

'Absolutely gorgeous.' Said Misaki. 'I bet you're gonna have some trouble with our boys.' He added with a wink.

Mikan laughed before replying, 'Well, I'm sure I can handle a couple of frenzied guys. So what do you think Mr.Narumi?'

Mr. Narumi just beamed at her, a smile which was so simple, but yet managed to touch Mikan.

'Mikan Sakura, Welcome to the Alice Academy.'
