Disclaimer: I don't own Gakuen Alice. I'm not even Japanese…(I wish I was though!) This story uses scenes from the anime and the manga, so I don't own those either. Is that clear? Good. Start reading then.
Summary: Mikan and Natsume's relationship told through the eyes of Youichi. (Uses scenes from both the anime and manga)
Chapter 1~ Sakura Mikan
"Idiot," I said to the two smiling faces of Shoda Sumire and Sakura Mikan. I watched uncaringly as they stared dumbfounded. What is wrong with them? "Ugly," Natsume whispered boredly. "Ugwy!" I repeated to the two girls. "Go away, monkeys," he whispered again. "Go waway mwonkeys," I tried to say clearly.
The curly-haired girl started to cry waterfalls while the pig-tailed one's face started to grow angry. Ugly girl.
"Natsume! What are you teaching this child?!" Pig-tails yelled disapprovingly towards Onii-san. She looked towards me. "You-chan, you shouldn't be with such a person!" she said.
She didn't want me to be with Onii-san? The mere thought irritated me. Look at her, asking him to come with her somewhere. I started to glare at her and Ruka warned her about my Alice…one second too late.
"EVIL SPIRITS ALICE?!" Pig-tails screamed. The purple-eyed girl near her watched amusedly. She ran around in circles as my spirits chased her. She then proceeded to fall flat on her face. "Mikan-chan!" one of her friends said. They crowded around her. Meanwhile, I got an approving pat on the head from Natsume-senpai and he smiled at me. I liked when he smiled.
A flashback then proceeded to come into my head.
I was led to the Dangerous Abilities class by a person named Hayate. His alice was wind. He smiled at me then gave me to the "teacher" of the Dangerous Abilities class. I later found out his name was Persona. "Everyone, please welcome Hijiri Youichi," he said. I stared around trying to find a friendly face but could find none. Most of their faces were covered by a shadow. The rest of them were watching me in interest.
"What's his alice?" one of them asked impatiently. Persona leaned down and whispered to me to show my alice. I did as I was told and released the spirits around the room.
Some of the students laughed in appreciation while some shied away from the ghosts, apparently afraid. There was one student who sat by the window, but he never showed any expression since I was introduced.
I stared at him in wonder and he stared back. Not before giving me a small smile, though. I made a mental note to go up to him later on. "That's enough," Persona said. The spirits disappeared and everyone went silent. "It's time to assign your missions," he said. At once, muttering broke out the students. Clearly, this was not something to look forward too.
"Natsume, you have tonight's shift," Persona assigned. I looked towards the boy near the window in expectation. He stared at Persona then after a few seconds, he finally said, "Whatever." With that, he picked up his manga and walked out the door. Hayate-senpai then sighed. "That fellow…" he let his sentence hang in the air.
Persona then assigned the rest of the missions and said to me, "You won't be doing anything major yet, Youichi-chan, as you're still only 3 years old, but be sure to get some information on this class from your senpais. He walked out the door and everyone started talking at once and made their selves at home. This must be something they do daily, I thought.
No one noticed me, so I walked out the door attempting to find the boy sitting near the window sill. Fortunately, I found him sitting in a sakura tree. It was spring, so the cherry blossoms were in full bloom. I looked up at him until he noticed me, which didn't take long.
He stared at me a bit then asked, "Hijiri, Youichi right?"
"Ah."
He smiled and jumped down from his seat. "Hyuuga Natsume," he said extending his hand towards me. I smiled for the first time since I came to this academy and he picked me up and put me on his lap.
From then on, I admired Hyuuga Natsume and strived to become just like him, which resulted in me having a fan club that the girls of my class started. Those dummies. Honestly…
I came back to reality and a sign caught my eye. I was intelligent, so I can read. Can't speak clearly though… I tugged on Natsume-senpai's shirt. He looked at me questioningly and I pointed at the sign Pig-tailed girl used to ask him out. He looked shocked for a moment then, remembered that Central Town was my second favorite place in the whole academy. My first place was the sakura tree Natsume-senpai always sat at.
He accepted Pig-tailed girl's offer to come to Central Town. When she heard the news she was overjoyed, even though she had to work as a servant on the bus. I saw my senpai hide a small smile as Pig-tailed girl jumped up and down.
Later, I learned from Ruka- senpai that her name was Sakura Mikan, even though Natsume-senpai usually called her polka dots because of some incident when she first came to the academy. We then walked to the bus and in no time, arrived at Central Town, much to Sakura-senpai's happiness.
