*~*Normal POV*~*

A fourteen year old brunette opened her light brown eyes to the bright sun leaking through her curtains. Next to the curtains stood a fourteen year old inventor, dressed in jeans and a blue t-shirt, gazing at the brunette with cold purple eyes. "Hotaru… Let me sleep in a bit longer!" Mikan whined, pulling the thick covers over her head. BAKA! BAKA! BAKA! "Okay I'm up!" Mikan squealed as Hotaru shot her with her invention, the Baka Gun. "We have school today baka… Hurry up, or I'm going ahead."

*~*Mikan POV*~*

I was having a wonderful dream about food, slightly drooling, when the cruel sun screamed at my innocent hazel eyes. But then Hotaru had to wake me up. So here I am now, getting dressed for boring old school! Uhg! I hate that word… It makes me cringe in fear! I always get bad grades from that hell! But no matter, it was required. I put on my pink long sleeved shirt with a monkey in the middle, and my faded blue skirt, and knee high white socks. Beginning to put my auburn hair into two ponytails, one of my ribbons snapped! Joy… And guess what else happened! When I tried to put it in a single pony tail in the back, the OTHER ribbon snapped! That's what I get for using them around my wrist when I sleep! I guess I'll just have to wear my hair down today… I ran out to the front door, seeing it slam shut, Hotaru just leaving. Groaning, I put on my brown boots that went just below my knees, and tied the strings, snatching my yellow back pack and chasing my best friend. Today was not going so well as I planned.

*~*Hotaru POV*~*

I have had enough. School started in seven minutes, and I was going to be late because of that baka, Mikan. So instead of being the kind person she was, and waiting, I left. Calculating in my head the speed I was walking, I noted that I would get to school on time, with two minutes to spare. I heard a lot of noise behind me, and just before the creator of it head butted me in my spine, I dodged the hit, causing Mikan to ram her head into the tree. That's when I noticed her hair was down. "Lose your ribbons again I see?" And that idiot replied, "Nope! They broke!" In an ever so casual tone, also!

*~*Normal POV*~*

Mikan followed her best friend into the classroom, whining and complaining. "But Hooootaru! That's not fair!" What did I do that was not fair? Those hair ribbons had been a gift, and now she would pay me 100 yen each. "Baka." I muttered under my breath. We took our seats, and minutes later the homeroom teacher walked in, calm like usual. "Good morning class," She started. "Before we start, Imai-san, Sakura-san, the principal would like to speak to you." "OKAY!" Mikan shouted, pulling Hotaru by the hand.

The principal was in his desk, writing on some paper. He looked up when the two girls walked in, a bubbly cheerful Sakura-chan, and a dull but incredibly smart Imai-chan. "Ohayo. Somebody wishes to speak to you girls, so have a seat, I will go get him. As the girls sat down, he got up and walked out of the room. "What do you think we did wrong, Hotaru? I'm hungry!" In reply, Mikan got a punch to the head. "Baka, we did nothing wrong." The door opened as Hotaru said 'wrong', and a man in a light pink frilled shirt and purple pants walked in, with shoulder length blond wavy hair. "Konichiwa, my name is Narumi-sensei, and you two will be transferring to Gakuen Alice! Isn't this so exciting? We already contacted your parents, and already have your stuff! So let's go!" Mikan stood up to follow, but our young inventor stopped them. "Just a minute. Why are we transferring without being notified. And why to a famous school? This baka couldn't get into a smart school to save her life." As she said this, Mikan started to make a fuss, crying at Hotaru's rude remark. "That's so mean Hotaru!" Giving the teacher an ever so cold glare, Hotaru waited for Narumi to give an answer. Sighing, the teacher sat down on a chair. "Do you know what an alice is?"

Hotaru and Mikan both gave a blank and confused look, waiting for the sensei to tell them what an alice was. "It's sort of like a super power, I guess you could say! Like reading minds, x-ray vision, and many more!" "Wooow!" Mikan said, quite amazed. "And you two possess an alice. Imai-chan, I believe you have the invention alice! And as for Mikan-chan, you have nullification!" Mikan gave a blank look, like she did when she had no clue what was going on. Narumi put this into simpler terms for the teen. "Nobody's alice has an effect on you." To this, Mikan gave off an 'aah' and nodded. "So, shall we get going?" Narumi said, standing up, arm in the air. And with that, the young cheerful Mikan dragged Hotaru to the black car.

*~*Natsume POV*~*

I was sleeping on the eighth branch up of a sakura tree, Manga covering my face from the sun. Yes, as usual, I was skipping. I heard a noise that was not often heard during daytime outside of missions, and this noise woke me up. Lazily snatching my manga off of my face, I turned to face the sound, and saw as a black car drove into this academy. More like hell… I thought. This got my attention big time. There was rarely a new student in the middle of the school year. So, curious at who it was, I went to class, hopping Koko had heard something. After all, he could read others minds, he was bound to have heard something. I opened the doors to my classroom, and saw people using their alices. Floating, laughter, mini explosions, and some people just sitting on top of their desks talking. He walked over to Koko, a boy who was chuckling, hand on the back of his head. "Oi, Koko." This got the boy with light brown hair's attention. "Hey, Natsume-kun! I heard there's two new students in our class today! Both girls!" There was a small wave of groans coming from the girls in the class. They obviously wanted a male student. I took my seat

Just as I sat down, Naru twirled in, gay as ever. "Ohayo, everyone! Today we have new students, please make them feel welcome! Come on in!" As he said that, two good looking girls walked in, well, more like the brunette dragged the short black haired girl in. They both had the blue middle school uniforms on- that was a no brainer- the brunette grinning and the creepy looking one had no emotions on her face that were obvious. "Konichiwa! My name is Sakura Mikan, I am fourteen, and have a special star! Pleased to meet you all!" Mikan said. Damn, her voice was so loud and annoying. Natsume turned his attention to the cold one. "Imai Hotaru, fourteen, three stars." Way to keep it simple. I thought, bored. "Well then, any questions for them?" Naru said, in an annoying cheerful way. Several hands shot up. "What's your alices?" One green haired girl asked, standing up boldly. "Nullification!" "Invention alice." The girls spoke at the same time. "Class?" Koko asked, his grin permanently glued to his face. Narumi answered this for the girls. "Special ability and Technical type!" The girl with the green hair spoke up again. "Why does she get a special star? And who will sit by them!" Narumi now had a vein in his forehead ready to pop from this girl. "Well, that is because I say so, and lets see… Imai-san go sit by Koko-san, and Mikan-chan…" It took him a moment to think while Mikan sulked at the fact Hotaru wasn't her partner. "Natsume-kun!" "What!" The green haired girl screeched.

*~*Mikan POV*~* I walked towards the back of the room, and sat down next to a boy who was leaning back in his chair, talking to a blond haired boy with a bunny in his lap. "Hello! My name is Sakura Mikan! Nice to meet you!" I whispered. He turned his eyes towards me, looked down for a brief second, and back to my face. "Oi, Polka dots. You're too loud." With that, he turned back, looking at the ceiling, and closed his eyes. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. "PERVERT!" By now Narumi-sensei already escaped, and this boy was labeled as a pervert none other than by me! "You have no right to be peeking under a woman's skirt! Especially since you are too young to act like that!" He just gave me a 'hmph' and I had enough.

Raising my right hand high in the air, it came down with a hard smack! The class gasped at me, but I didn't give a damn. "Listen to what I am saying." I said. I had snapped, if only for a split second. Then I was back to my normal self. The boy named Natsume now had his fingers touching his red cheek, eyes hidden under his bangs. Murmurs rose within the class, and the girl I would call permy stood up. "HOW DARE YOU HIT MY NATSUME! YOU SHOULD JUST LEAVE THIS ACADEMY WITH YOUR TAIL TUCKED BETWEEN YOUR LEGS!" Wow, permy was loud. Natsume rose from his seat, and walked towards the door. "Lets go, Ruka." He said, in a smooth voice, as the boy with the bunny stood up, and followed him. The door slammed, and I was standing in the middle of the room surrounded with vicious wolf-like people. "Now now, we can all solve this like normal human beings!" I said, sweat dropping. Permy spoke up-again. She seemed to be the loudest person in this room! "We aren't normal human beings, so that's impossible! I will make sure you are the most hated person in this academy! Nobody will like you for the rest of your time here! So enjoy the sweet moments where nobody knows you exist yet! Trust me, I have my resources to make this possible!" Great. First day of my life, and I already have the whole school against me.
