Chapter 2

Stitchery and Knitting Classroom

Hotaru sighed as they entered the classroom.

"Come on, idiot, we're sitting next to the window." Hotaru said plainly as she walked over to the seats near the window.

"To watch the amazing, colourful flowers sway with the beautiful breeze?" Mikan said dramatically.

The people who saw her kneeling on one leg and putting her right hand on her forehead while her eyes were closed, sweat dropped.

"No, idiotic drama queen. We're going to watch out." Hotaru said.

Mikan walked over to her friend and sat down.

"Then what are we going to do by the window?"

"We're going to watch out." She said as simple as possible.

"Watch out for the beautiful blue jays as they fly in the vast sky?"

"No."

"Watch out for the kindergarteners as they run past the window?"

"No." Hotaru was now pissed off.

"Watch out for--"

Mikan got smacked on the head by Hotaru.

Everyone around them laughed nervously and took a step back.

"As I said earlier. No." Hotaru was going back to looking for a certain nothing.

"Then what are you looking for?" Mikan asked, being the persistent one.

"You'll see."

After that the teacher came in and greeted the class. She had them make a knitting of a scarf.

"Hey, Hotaru. What colour will your scarf be?" Mikan asked.

Silence.

Mikan shrugged and continued knitting.

When Mikan was half done she sighed because of it was very grueling. She looked to her side and noticed that there was one silent girl beside her and she had already made one full scarf and is making another, just to pass time.

"You're pretty fast." Mikan complimented.

The girl beside her just sheepily smiled and continued her work.

Mikan smiled back and continued talking.

"Hi! I'm Mikan Sakura." She introduced herself.

The girl stopped what she was doing, smiled and introduced herself.

"I'm Anna Umenomiya. I'm the first princess of Coraline." She said as she became more confident.

Then suddenly a girl popped up behind her.

"And I'm Nonoko Ogasawara, her sister and second princess of Coraline. And I heard you're Mikan and you are the princess of?" The girl said.

Mikan sweat dropped at the sudden introduction but continued talking anyway.

"As I said I'm Mikan and I'm the princess of Alice. And this is Ho--"

She was cut off.

"Princess of Alice? As in the Alice Kingdom up in the north?" Nonoko interrupted yet again.

"Uh. Yeah." She replied with a twitchy smile.

"Okay..." Nonoko said naturally.

"Okay and this is Hotaru Imai, princess of Tech and my best friend." Mikan said as she pointed to Hotaru.

"Hi Hotaru!" Nonoko said energetically while Anna just nodded and smiled.

It's so magical how these two are sisters...

"Hn. Don't ever bug me." She said as she looked up from what she was doing.

Nonoko and Anna moved away a little and smiled nervously.

"It's okay guys. She's just like that outside but deep inside she's saying 'Hello world! Hear me speak when I say Hello!" Mikan said with stars in her eyes.

Hotaru took out a mallet out of no where and hit Mikan with it.

"Never do I think or say such idiotic quotes."

People just stared at them but went back to knitting when Hotaru glared at them.

Mikan looked out and saw a something in the distance with something flashing on and off.

"Hey, Hotaru. What's that?" Mikan said pointing to the glimmering light.

"It's about time they got here."

"About what time who gets here?" Mikan asked curiously.

"Were going outside after this class is finished. It will be break then won't it?" Hotaru told her.

"I don't see the connection." Mikan said, head tilted and finger on chin.

"That's because your stupid." Hotaru said noticing that class was finally over.

"Hey, wherever we're going can we bring Anna and Nonoko?" She said hopefully.

Hotaru sighed and spoke up.

"As long as they don't bug me." Hotaru replied.

"Yipee!"

Mikan turned around and asked the two if they wanted to come. The two agreed.

"Sure Mikan. We'll go to wherever you're going." Anna said with a smile.

She looked back and saw Hotaru leaving the classroom.

She turned back to the two and spoke.

"Come on before Hotaru leaves us!" Mikan suggested, dragging the two to Hotaru.
