"Shiro, there will be an urgent meeting with Lord Zero, everybody from "The Twelve" is going to attend." said Yoshida Takima, 15th in rank in the organization of the black knights.

"Thank you, Yoshida." Said Shiro, whose position within the organization was 3rd, making her one of the most respected members of the organization of the Black Knights, therefore making her a member of "The Twelve".

Shiro's POV

Why is there a meeting at a time like this? She thought while walking toward the only standing building left in the Shinjuku ghetto area, where, 7 years ago she lost her mother…

FLASHBACK

"Mother! I'm back!" She had shouted, back then, she had only been a defenseless eleven year old alice owner coming back from school to her apartment in Shinjuku, where she lived with her mother since 6 months ago.

"Hello, Mikan" answered her mother, Yuka Azumi, it had been six months since that day, were she had said goodbye to Hotaru, Ruka, Natsume…everyone…"Get down!"

BOOOOOOOOM! Afterwards, all Mikan had heard before falling unconscious had been the sound of gunshots, and her mother telling her to take cover…

When she had woken up, she had seen her mother laying dead in front of her, with trails of blood running down all of her body, her lifeless eyes staring into nothing, having taken all of the bullets aiming at Mikan, who wasn't hurt in the very least, except for her right toe, which was bleeding profusely and giving her an incredible pain…

END OF FLASHBACK

Once she entered the building, she started heading towards the basement, and opened a secret door, placed behind a ton of boxes full with dynamite and liquid sakuradite in case the Britannian army discovered their main headquarters of the Black Knights, these were designed for all of the information on its members to disappear and never be found out by the Britannian army.

Of course, before entering, she had put on her white colored mask, hence the "Shiro" nickname, and started to go towards the changing rooms, and once she put on her uniform, a black long sleeved blouse, black pants that reached her toe, black tennis with white laces, a red cloth tied at her waist, a necklace with a beautiful red stone as its pendant and put on a cloak with the emblem of the black knights, which marked her as a high ranking member of the organization.

When she was ready, she started walking towards the meeting room, and on her way, met up with her fellow companion and best friend within the Knights, Yakani Shikae, the second highest ranked member.

"Hey, Shiro!" asked Yakani, already with her sunflower yellow mask and black uniform.

"Do you know what this meeting will be about Hima-san?" Mikan asked.

"I believe it's about the threat that Gakuen Alice is to the Black Knights, especially with the Alices and all. So, what do you think, eh, Shiro?" Yakani asked Mikan.

"Eto….."

"Tell me later, then, you better have a good answer when the meetings over." She said while heading off to her seat, which, by the way, was right in front of Mikan´s.

"I welcome all of you, my loyal knights, to this meeting of "The Twelve"!" said a deep, male voice, Lord Zero's voice.

So, how was it? This is my first fic ever, so please, I beg you give me advice on how to make my story better.

SUPER IMPROTANT EDIT: So yeah… I decided to edit all of the story so far in minor ways to check for spelling mistakes and the like, because in hindsight, it wasn't well written at all, so yeah. AND another reason for doing so was for getting inspired and remembering what I did for the writing of future chapters.
