Hey guys!!! This is my second fic and my first story. Thank you for all the people who read my first one and also thanks for the ones who reviewed it. I expect the same support.

Hope you'll enjoy.

Chapter-1

When the people around the world are busy with their stupid schedules, we have this Academy where a cheerful brunette is skipping gracefully in her carefree way, spreading her beautiful smile, which is radiant like the sun .Also a pair of crimson orbs watching her secretly and adoring her presence.

"What is it now persona," Natsume twitched.

"Smart …huh," Persona said coming out from his hiding place, "What do you expect for…black cat...just another mission."

"Tch...Whatever," saying this he collected the information required and disappeared to another mission.

Mikan: "Oh! I'm bored. Now-a-days I have to spend most of the time alone. All my friends are paired up (Koko x Anna, Yuu x Nonoko, Sumire x Moucho, Tsubasa x Misaki, and even Hotaru x Ruka pyon)."

"I wonder if Natsume has gone on a mission today too. Huh! Why do I care as if I'm bothered. Ok...Ok, I agree, I'm worried to death. He, that moron, that jerk!, mostly does dangerous missions and returns wounded. My heart breaks into pieces seeing him that way. I just feel like embracing him tightly in my arms…oh! What the hell am I thinking…It's so embarrassing."

"Anyway I feel like seeing Hotaru right now. I miss her." With that Mikan started off to her so called best friend, the Blackmailing Queen's room.

On the way, her thoughts: When we were 12, Ruka pyon realized that he liked me but actually loved Hotaru. He confessed to her about his feelings. Though Hotaru took her time to reply, but accepted him. They are dating and it has already been 3 years. Inspite of all that Hotaru continued blackmailing Ruka."

[That's right guys everyone is 15 except Tsubasa and Misaki who are 18]

I reached out to the door knob of Hotaru's room and opened it slowly without making any noise in order not to disturb her, man she sometimes acts weird and hits me with her infamous baka gun if I disturbed her. But after what I saw, I decided better not to go in.

Mikan's pov: "I saw Ruka hugging Hotaru from behind and whispering something in her ear. He started kissing the side of her neck." Gosh! I don't want to see anymore of it. With that she returned to her room.

In Hotaru's room:

Ruka hugged Hotaru from behind and whispered "I love you sweet heart," with that he started kissing her neck. She, as usual is working on her new invention and as we know that Hotaru spares none if they disturb her, took out her baka gun version 3000 and hit Ruka on his head.

"Hotaruuu…you are so mean," Ruka whined in pain and asked, "please give me back the photo you took in the garden just now."

"It costs 40,000 rabbits," she demanded.

Ruka walked to her and bent over her kissing her lips. Hotaru pushed him away softly and said "one more to my collection."

"You said you are returning it to me if I pay, right,"he complained.

"Yes I won't sell it, but I'll keep a copy of it."

With a smirk on his face [when did he start it], he said "anything for you." with that once again started kissing her. But she hit him again.

"Why did you do that for?" Ruka asked.

"You are disturbing me baka…" she stated coldly.

"Hotaru you're a devil!" but, still he ended up hugging her saying, "I love you the way you are."

"Enough of all that cute and innocent stuff, just sit on the couch and I'll complete my work in 30 minutes and also we need to talk about something."

Mikan is now a two star despite which her room remained the same.

A certain flame caster who returned from his mission is watching the brunette from the tree which is near her window.

In Mikan's room:

Mikan's thoughts: If Natsume returns, I'll go to central town with him to buy hawoloans.

With that she drifted into sleep. The black cat slowly entered her room with out making any noise and crept on to her side. He placed a gentle kiss on her forehead, hugged her tightly and slept.

The so called pleasant morning of the gakuen Alice is interrupted by a loud scream of a certain nullifier.

"Natsuuuumeeeeee….." "Why the hell are you sleeping here?"

"Tch...Stop it already stupid."

"I need an answer" she said tapping her feet on the ground.

"I don't need to answer it. Get ready! I'm gonna pick you up in 10 minutes."

"But where are we going" she said with a sudden change in mood.

"Tch...central town" he said.

"Really….?" She said dreamily with her mouth watering, imagining the view of hawoloans

She wore a jade green dress with a cute hat and our flame caster wore white polo and jeans.

At the central town:

Mikan: "huff… huff…huff…what a crowd. But any way I got what I want," she said skipping along Natsume's side with a box of hawoloans.

Natsume: "can't you walk properly polka" he said smirking.

Mikan: "pervert" saying that she walked away angrily.

On the way she saw Hotaru with Ruka, who are pasting posters on walls and ran to them.

"Hey Hotaru what are you doing" she asked her.

"Just have a look at it and you'll know baka" she said coldly.

"What? An ice cream competition? When? Can I join it?" she asked excitedly.

"No. You can't baka" she stated.

"But why?" our brunette asked.

"You'll know soon" Hotaru said.

"Is that so?" she wondered what Hotaru had planned for now.

Ruka's pov (while helping Hotaru): Sorry Natsume. I have to do this…it may help you but there is another reason behind my doing this. My girlfriend will sell pictures of me and usagi having a bath together if I refuse.

Natsume's pov: Where is that idiot? I'm searching for her. I wonder how would be the days with out her. No. I don't even want to imagine my life without her. She is mine. May be that may sound possessive but yes INatsume Hyuuga, is going to make her mine soon. I don't have an idea how to tell her that (don't misunderstand that I don't know how to confess or so, she is an idiot who doesn't get it in one go). Any way she has no choice. I'll never let her date another guy, that's for sure I'm gonna burn them all if they even tried to touch her. (Smirking)

Suddenly out of no where, Hotaru came flying on her duck scooter and threw a paper on our infamous black cat's face, who currently is drowned in his thoughts.

Coming out of his world he took a quick glance at it and glared (with what_ the_ hell _do_ you_ think_ want _to_ get _roasted look) at the person who threw it.

With the side of her lip curving up (obviously her evil smirk) she said "guess who the prize is?"

"What the hell is she blabbing out?" he thought but "wait, did she say the prize is a person? NO WAY!!!!" with that he runs to the venue mentioned in the poor piece of paper which he burned a few seconds ago due to frustration.

On the other hand our brunette, unaware of the current situation is happily giving a hand in her so called best friend's work i.e., inviting people to participate and stuff.

She watches a figure approaching her and recognizes it as none other than Natsume. She excitedly asks him to participate in the competition.

Conjuring fire balls in his palms he glares (which gives do_i_look_like_a_gay look) at her.

Mikan guessing that he's gonna burn the entire set up displayed over there, cries out "don't even think about it Naatsuume!!!"

Ignoring her he sets the entire set on fire but what happens next is not known to him though.

Hotaru pops out of no where again and states that, "It's of no use Hyuuga. I made them fire proof .You cannot burn even a single thread of any of them."

Natsume: "What about that?" he says pointing to the ice cream container.

Hotaru: "Why not give it a try?" she says playfully.

What people see next is the container being attacked by a wall of flames but out of no where big daggers of ice come piercing through the flames and freeze the container.

Our confused brunette tilts her head and looks in the direction from which they came and runs to that person happily.

(A/N: I think you have guessed who it is?)

Well it is none other than our Ice princess Ibaragi Nobara, who is currently smiling at our brunette.

Well they didn't notice the glare they are getting and are chatting animatedly.

Natsume: "Not bad! You got your sources huh! But that's not gonna stop me" with that he throws a few fire balls at Nobara inviting her for a combat but unfortunately or fortunately our fluff puff lover uses her nullification making the fan girls( well they popped out, of course out of no where and started crying out for their gorgeous God : Go kill her Natsume!! Kill Sakura!! And stuff). And soon their hairs, skirts were on fire of course.

Natsume: "What's that for polka?" he questioned her and eyed her suspiciously, "don't tell me you too are into it."

Mikan: "First of all why did you do this and second what are you talking about?" she asked confusedly.

Natsume: "Tch…nothing just get out of the way polka" and turned to face our blackmailer and said "Imai I need a talk."

Hotaru nodded in agreement and lead him to a private chamber which she installed in the tent laid for maintaining the ice cream cans.

"So what's the deal, want some rabbits" Natsume smirked.

"Of course always but not now coz I'm getting more than what you offer" Hotaru declared.

"Just give her back to me you evil bitch" he commanded.

"That's not possible. Win her yourself in the competition."

"What do you think of me, an idiot? Do you think I'll eat those disgusting dirty things (referring to ice creams) like a crazy gay and win that stupid thing (competition)" he said twitching his eyebrows.

"So you are the same after all these years huh…….bragging about your pride. Well in that case, I would like to offer you a favour if you want."

"What is it?"

"Well, it costs 1000 rabbits"

"Whatever"

"Here it is"

She handed him a bottle filled with a viscous purple potion

"What is this?"

"Just drink it. You'll know" with that she rode away on her duck scooter.

Hotaru's thoughts:

After all Nonoko's potion, which I purchased a few days ago proved to be of good use. (Rabbits in her eyes).

Misaki and Tsubasa are walking hand in hand, with Tsubasa teasing Misaki and is getting hit by her. But inwardly he is smiling and overwhelming that his woman is too strong to keep him bound to her.

"I think something is going on over there" she said interrupting his thoughts, pointing to the newly setup tent.

"Looks like Imai put up something. Let's check it out" he said enthusiastically

Similarly, all our pairs and other people who are wandering in the central town for fun and enjoyment gathered in the competition grounds.

Our brunette who is innocent is helping out her best friend and her marionettes inviting participants and arranging chairs, tables and bowls to carry ice creams etc.

Where as for the participants, some entered this competition just for fun, some for the unknown fabulous price, some for just tasting all flavors of ice creams, some to prove their appetite and some for various reasons.

Well every one is excited about it.

Soon the ground filled with participants and people who came to cheer their friends.

Hotaru took the mike and announced

"Every one silence"

"I'm going to say this only once so listen up. If you ask me to repeat, you'll be out of the competition immediately" she grinned.

"The rules are:

1. Each ice cream costs 20 rabbits. If you were unable finish all the ice creams given to you in the specified time you'll have to pay for all of them.

2. Using your alice is strictly prohibited. If you violate this rule you'll have to face the circumstances.

3. Winner will be the one who follows the mentioned and eats more in number.

4. Finally coming to the price, it's that idiot who is standing over there Mikan Sakura."

She said nonchalantly.

All the male population drooled at last sentence she mentioned. (A/N: I think you know the exceptions)

So how is it?

Good? Bad?

Do review!

Flames accepted.
