Chapter 1
Hey guys! This is an AU fic but I need a little introduction to explain. They still have Alices, but there is no Alice Academy. They just go to regular school and try to hide their Alices from regular students (usually). Okay, now I'm done.
Oh, and I'm raising their age to fourteen. (Oh early teens :D)
Disclaimer: I don't own anything from Gakuen Alice to any music I may use. (It will be disclaimed on its chapter).
Intro:
I know you all know the story of how Hotaru left to go to Gakuen Alice so that the school wouldn't close down, but what if there never was an alice academy? What if Alices were known of, but there wasn't a school for them?
Well, that's what happened, and as I find myself having to leave my school, which closed down, for a new school.
Little did I know that this would not be an easy transition.
Mikan's POV:
I sadly stood as we watched the principal of my beloved school speak. I can't believe that it's closing. We tried bake sales, fundraisers and art auctions but it seems that we have reached the inevitable. I tried to grasp Hotaru's hand but she swatted me away. Realizing that we would be parting, I sniffed and looked at her.
"Don't cry dummy. Your crying face is 60% more ugly." She finally let me squeeze her hand.

i looked up at my strong, violet eyed best friend. She seemed almost cool with the school closing down.

School ended early for us so that we could aid our parents in setting up our transfer. I don't have parents to help. My dad left before I was born and my mother disappeared when I was four, so I live with ji-chan. (sorry if its spelled wrong)
I sat with him, looking for schools to enroll in. "What about this one?"
He looked at the screen and said in surprise, "You want to go to a boarding school?"
I shrugged, "The courses look manageable."
"What's the name?"
I squinted at the top of the page, "Sherwood Academy." (Idk :P)
Ji-chan pointed at the screen and started, "Mikan I don't think this school-"
I got annoyed, "Can't I pick a school myself?"
He looked at me and smirked, "Okayy, but I'll be expecting your call to transfer soon."
I take that as a challenge. How does he not trust my ability to pick a school! I am fully able to judge this school myself!
"Fine!"
I handed him the laptop and said, "Enroll me in this one, please."
"Whatever, Mikan."
I walked over to my room and opened the door. Looking at my orange walls, I can't believe that soon I won't be here. My posters of animals, flowers, and various music groups will gather dust without eyes raking them everyday. I sat on my pink comforter before burying myself under the covers and flipping the light switch next to my bed.
I tried to move from the wall, but the cold metal of chains linked my arms to the concrete cellar walls. Tears of frustration hit my cheeks, "No! I'm not going to join you!"
I don't know how I got here, I don't know why I'm here. I felt a thin metal blade slice across my cheek, followed by a warm thick liquid in its place.
"But, my Sakura, you realize that you are here. He won't find you! No one will find you and you are standing here pleading death instead of service?"
I couldn't help but notice his poetic structure; he's trying to confuse me and it won't work.
I heard a metallic click of knife hitting ground and watched him walk off. How much longer I would last was a mystery.
I sat up and wiped sweat from my face. What kind of nightmare was that? I guess I'm just nervous about leaving my life for a new school. But how does that dream analyze?
Maybe I feel trapped or something?
Who cares, I'm getting some warm milk.
~~time skip~~
I pulled my suitcases out of the car meekly but when I saw the campus my jaw dropped. There wasn't a single girl anywhere. Where are they? This must be the guy's dorms.
"Ji-chan, I think we're at the boys dorms."
He laughed, "I know we are!"
My eyes got big, "do you want me to walk to find my dorm?"
He laughed harder, "This is your dorm, what did you expect from an all male school?"
My jaw dropped. Okay, take back all that I said about being able to pick a school. I opened my mouth to scream but I remembered Ji-Chana's 'challenge.'
A man walked up with blonde hair and purple eyes. "Hello! Well who are you?" he said, stooping down to be at my head level.
My ji-chan opened his mouth but I beat him to it, "I'm just here to see my brother off!"
He smiled, "Is he your older brother?" I paused for a second.
"He's my twin. We're identicle!" It was the perfect cover.
I smiled again, "let me help him bring up his bags."
Narumi brought me up to the dorm that I- I mean, my brother would be staying at and he helped me with one of my bags. Luckily, I had opted to bring ji-chans black bags because of their capacity, rather than my neon pink ones.
I entered and immediatly smelt a rush of cinnamon and a smell best described as burnt lavender, but less strong. The room had I decorated tan walls and brown carpeting. There were two beds and one looked slept in and unmade.
I stuffed them by my bed and quickly said, "I can hear my brother in the bathroom! Seems like he's already here."
He smiled, "I'm going to go talk to your grandpa. Make sure to be gone with him in the next two hours."
He left and I sighed with relief. Who had I heard in the built in bathroom anyways?
Realization him me that this was my roommate. I can't let him figure it out!
I frantically spun in circles, trying to find a place to hide. As I heard the water shut off, I leapt under my bed. Luckily I fit without having any of me show. I heard a bang of the door opening and I watched black -sneakered feet walk over the carpeted floor and towards the door. The person stopped after opening it, seemingly looking around. After deeming the area empty, he walked back, and then over to the other bed. I heard the sound of bed springs moving as he sat on it and I freaked out.
What if he doesn't leave?
I looked around at the room, finally getting a good look at its cleanliness state. It was more or less the room of a boy. There were some worn shirts on the floors along with other articles of clothing. Socks ew pants to be expected boxers those have to go! I could feel myself blushing already.
All of a sudden, the door burst open and I heard someone's voice.
"Are you coming to lunch, Natsume? Wait, what are all these bags here for?"
I heard the other voice, presumably Natsume's, "They're giving me another roommate. Seems that they didn't learn from the other failed ones."
I gulped silently, who is this 'Natsume.' What's his problem that he can't keep a roommate?
"Lets go, " said the emotionless voice of my roommate and I watched his feet trail to the door.
As it closed behind him, I crawled out from under the bed and quickly rooted through my bag.
I pulled out a baseball cap and shoved my hair under it. It'll do until I can get a wig. I opened the dresser on my side and pulled out one of the provided uniforms. I threw it on, noticing that it was a bit baggy on me. Oh well.
I ran down the steps and into ji-chans car.
"You look great," he scoffed.
"Hey, can we stop at the costume shop that we drove by down the street?"
He smirked, "sure scamp."
We drove to a cute little shop for costumes that we saw earlier and I ran to the back. Spotting a male wig that looked the same color of my hair, I grabbed two of it, one in case the other is messed up, and four hair caps to keep bumpy hair in the wigs. I ran to the front and paid for the with ji-chan before running to the back room to put one on. I gasped at the realistic ness of the wig. My hair looks like a guys hair! I might be able to pull this off!
I quickly pulled the pink backing off of my phone and threw it away. No need for pink.
I ran back to the front room and smiled at ji-chan with a look that said 'ha!' I'm not in the clear yet, but I'm closer. What would my name be? Mikan is too girly. I was pulled out of my thoughts by my grandpa taking my hand and lightly pulling me towards the car.
When we got back to the campus,I saw him off, wondering what I had gotten myself into. I've long since missed lunch by now, so I headed to my dorm. It's Saturday, so there are no classes today or tomorrow.

I entered the dorm to find myself pressed up against the wall by an angry looking black haired boy.

:D By the way, how do you like the name? Should I change it? Let me know. Also, if I don't get any reviewd, than I won't post quickly.
Bye byes!
