Chapter 2
Another Three New Students
Mikan's POV
Darn it! I slept in again and now I'm late for class! Things couldn't get any- oomph!
End of POV
Before Mikan could finish, she bumped into Anjelika and Nikki.
"Aah! I'm sorry Mikan!" Nikki said and helped her up.
"Nah, that's okay. Oh, hi Pacheco!"
"Hi Mikan!"
"So you're late too, huh?" Nikki said.
"Uh, hehehe, yeah, kinda…" Mikan replied. "We better hurry and get to class!"
At the Classroom
"Morning everyone!" Mikan greeted. "HOTARU!"
BAKA BAKA BAKA
"Do that again and you get the Baka Cannon," Hotaru replied.
"Hotaru, you're so cruel!"
"You okay Mikan?" Yuu asked while helping her up.
"Yeah, I'm fine…" She replied. "Morning Natsume and Ruka!"
"Morning Mikan."
"Whatever," Natsume said and read his manga again.
Suddenly, Anna and Nonoko appeared out of nowhere.
"Did you hear? We're having three new students!"
"New students?" Nikki and Anjelika said at the same time. Then, Mr. Narumi came in the room.
"Good Morning class!"
"Morning…"
"We're having three new students from the Philippines again. Please welcome them!" Three girls walked in. Some boys whistled, some blushed, girls glared while everyone else just stared, waiting for the introduction to be over. The first two had shoulder-length hair while the other one had the same type of hair as Anjelika and Hotaru.
"Meet Erika, Celina and Marian."
"My name is Erika Kate Garcia and I'm twelve years old. My alice is telepathy, otherwise known as mind-reading," Erika said and then bowed slightly. "Nice to meet you all."
"My name's Celina Bianca Alejandro. I'm twelve too," She said. "My alice is Wind."
"And my name's Marian Atienza and I'm twelve also. My alice is Fire."
"Hey, she has the same alice as Natsume," Some people whispered. Natsume looked up from his manga and heard the voices saying "She has a fire alice like the Black Cat" or "She's like Natsume" and all that.
"Okay then, Erika, you sit behind Pacheco, the tall girl wearing glasses with a smile plastered on her face, and Celina you sit in front of her. Marian, you sit in front of Nikki, the one who seems to be glaring at you for some reason. Oh, by the way class, Mr. Jinno's absent because someone just happened to dump a whole bucket of water on him and he caught a cold yesterday," Mr. Narumi said, then snickered. "Also, the last new student is gonna come in about a week or so. Anyway, I'm off!" They just blinked and went to their places.
"Yay! You guys are here! Now I won't be alone anymore!" Anjelika suddenly said.
"Oh really? So what am I, invisible or something?"
"Of course you're invisible. If you weren't, I would be seeing you by now, stupid."
"Dimwit!
"Idiot!"
"Weirdo!"
"Ugly!"
BAKA BAKA BAKA
"Just shut your mouths," Hotaru said.
"Yes ma'am…" Both Nikki and Anjelika replied.
"Hey, how come you all seem to know each other?" Mikan asked.
"Oh we go way back," Anjelika said. "We were childhood friends!"
"Umm, can we say something? Hello?" Erika said. "We. Don't. Know. You."
"Wah! How could you say that?"
"Because I can."
"She's got a point, you know," Celina replied.
"Wah! You're all not getting fruit baskets from me today!" (A/N: Why fruit baskets???)
"You weren't gonna give us fruit baskets in the first place," Erika replied.
"How would you know?" Anjelika said.
"Hello? Mind-reading alice?" Erika replied.
"Oh yeah… Well… hehehe…"
"So… you guys know each other?" Mikan asked again.
Anjelika: "Yeah!"
Erika: "NO."
Celina: "Of course not."
Marian: "Hn."
Nikki: "I wish I didn't." (Joke)
"I don't understand you all," Mikan said.
"They know each other because they're all childhood friends," Koko said.
"How do you know that?" Erika, Celina and Marian asked.
"I'm a mind-reader also, like Erika."
"Oh…"
"We know each other. So what?" Marian said.
"Duh! We've been friends!" Anjelika exclaimed.
Mikan's POV
That girl named Marian seems very familiar. She reminds me of someone…
"Hey, Nikki, what's up with you and your friends?"
"Well, we've all been friends since childhood but one person's still missing."
"Who?"
"Her name is Patrice and we don't know if she has an alice or not so our group is still incomplete," She answered. "So I don't know if we'll ever see her again."
"Well, I bet you will," I replied. She looked at me, smiled and then nodded.
"You're probably right," She replied. Then she started to continue to write her story. It read:
Three new students came to the academy and they just happened to be Yukino's friends.
"Yumi! Akira! Mitsuei! Wait, where's Kana?" Yukino said. "Is she going to come here as well?" "Yeah, she'll go here soon," Akira said. "So, what do you think of the Academy so far?" "It's okay, but I still miss my family," Yukino said. "What about you guys? Don't you miss your parents?" "They wouldn't miss me in the first place," Mitsuei scoffed. "Well, I don't miss my parents," Yumi said. "I don't care anyway. What did Asami do when she got to the Academy?" Akira answered. Asami was Yukino's best friend and she came to the Academy too the same day she did. She had the power of controlling the air's temperature, which depended on her mood. "Well, she was happy because she had a special power and was actually rejoicing," Yukino replied. "But it is Asami, so it's probably considered as normal." Just then, the one and only Asami appeared out of nowhere. "Hi guys! Isn't it great that we're classmates? By the way, what are your powers?"
Yumi: "Why should we tell you?"
Akira: "None of your business."
Mitsuei: "Hn."
"Wah! You guys won't receive gifts from me today!" Asami replied. "Fine, fine." They said.
Yumi: "Mind-control."
Akira: "Water."
Mitsuei: "Darkness."
"Yay!" Asami cheered. "I have a better power than all of you!" "No you DON'T." They all said at the same time. "Well, I say so and that's that! Hmph!" Then Kyoko appeared out of no where. "Oh, so you guys know each other?"
Asami: "Yup!"
Yumi: "Haven't met her in my entire life."
Akira: "Definitely not."
Mitsuei: "Hn."
Yukino: "If only I didn't."
"Okay…" Kyoko replied. "Anyway, you three are new here so why don't we show you around the Academy?" They nodded and followed Kyoko like a little tour group everywhere and had some fun on the way as well.
And that's when the story ended.
"Wow, you're getting really good everyday!"
"Nah, not really. I'm not as good as you think…"
Just then, the bell rang.
End of POV
Just then, Anjelika, Hotaru, Erika, Celina and Marian walked up to the both of them.
"What are you guys talking about?"
"Nothing…" Nikki replied.
"Okay then… Oh, you must be Mikan," Celina said.
"Yeah, nice to meet you!" Mikan greeted.
"She's too cheerful and full of joy," Marian said, and then shrugged.
"Yeah, I know," Hotaru said. "And I have to put up with her everyday."
"I'm so sorry…" Marian sympathized.
"Hey!" Mikan said, and then pointed at Marian. "You seem to remind me a lot of somebody!"
"You're too loud, Polka-dots," Natsume suddenly said.
"PERVERT!" Mikan said.
"PEST! MONSTER! DISGRACE!" Nikki continued. Everyone sweatdropped.
"Yeah… You remind me of someone… But who?" Mikan asked herself. (A/N: Mikan is so dense…)
"I can think of someone in particular…" Nikki mumbled, glaring at both Marian and Natsume.
"Did you say something?" Mikan looked at Nikki.
"Huh? Oh, no, no, I didn't say anything, haha…" Nikki laughed nervously.
"Okay then," Mikan said. "Wanna go to Central Town again?"
"What's Central Town?" Celina and Marian asked.
"A place where you buy stuff and blah, blah, blah," Erika said plainly.
"You read her mind?" The two asked.
"No, I couldn't somehow," She replied. "So I read their minds." She pointed to Nikki and Anjelika.
"That's because I have a Nullification alice," Mikan said. "It'll cancel out your alice."
"You don't need to brag about it, you know?" Hotaru said.
"I'm not bragging about it!"
"Yeah, yeah."
"Anyway, do you guys wanna go?"
"Yeah, okay," They replied.
At Central Town
They looked around and had fun on the way as well. But when some boys tried to flirt with them, they had to deal with Nikki. And when boys deal with Nikki, bad things happen…
Anyway, on with the story!
"Hey, Mikan, what's that?"
"Oh, they're called Howalons. You want to buy some?"
Anjelika and Nikki: "YES PLEASE!"
Hotaru: "No."
Erika: "Okay."
Celina: "Sure."
Marian: "No but if I did want some, I wouldn't have any money on me anyway."
"Okay, I'll be right back!"
Later…
"Man, that line was long!" Mikan said. Everyone except Marian and Hotaru got one each.
"Tastes like heaven!" All of them said.
"Hey, there's still one left." They all stared at each other, and then…
"MINE!!!" They said. They were making such a fuss about just one Howalon while Marian and Hotaru sat quietly on the bench, watching them when Natsume and Ruka came.
"What are you doing?" Natsume said. They all stopped and looked at him. Celina had a hand grabbing Anjelika's hair, Anjelika had her hand on Nikki's forehead, pushing her away, Nikki had a hand holding Erika's ear, Erika had her hands on Mikan's feet and Mikan had the last Howalon in her mouth. (A/N: I wonder how that would look like…)
"We wanted the last Howalon," Mikan tried to say, but her words got all jumbled up and she mumbled something else.
"We're being squatters!" Anjelika suddenly said. Everyone sweatdropped.
"Everyone, pretend you don't know her," Celina said out loud.
"I can hear everything you're saying, ya know???"
"I'm sorry, who are you?" Erika said.
"Anjelika!" She said cheerfully.
"Idiot…" Celina said.
"Guys haven't you noticed…" Nikki said lightly but started shouting, "WE'RE STILL IN THE SAME POSITION AND SOMEONE'S WATCHING US!!!"
"Oh yeah… Those guys…" Erika said, pointing at Natsume and Ruka.
"Whatever. Let's go Ruka," Natsume said.
"You go ahead, Natsume," Ruka replied. "I have to take care of something."
"Suit yourself," Natsume said, then walked away. Ruka watched him until he was out of sight. He took a big sigh and then…
"IMAI! Why did you sell those pictures?!?" Ruka exclaimed.
"So that I could get money," Hotaru simply replied. "Duh."
"What pictures?"
"Him playing with a giant chick."
"Oh, so he's the guy called Ruka?" Anjelika said. "Hotaru gave me a sample picture for blackmail that she took of you. See?" She then held up a picture of Ruka and Piyo playing together. Ruka tried to get it, but Anjelika was just too tall.
SNAP!
"Huh? Imai! Give me that camera!"
SNAP! SNAP! SNAP!
"IMAI!!!"
The rest were just staring at them.
"Does this always happen?" Nikki said.
"Pretty much," Mikan said.
"They look…"
"Look what?"
"They look… cute together for some silly reason!" Nikki said, and then smiled.
"…" Mikan pondered on this for a moment. "Wha? How could you say that?"
"It's only my opinion."
"Opinion of what?" Erika, Celina, Marian and Anjelika asked, which made Nikki and Mikan jump.
"You guys were listening?!"
"Just from the part where you said that Hotaru and Ruka looked cute together," Celina said.
"Hey, I've thought of something!" Anjelika said.
"How is that possible?" Erika said. "You don't think."
"Hey, I'm smart in a way as well!"
"Okay, okay, what's this brilliant idea of yours, genius?" Celina said sarcastically.
"I think that we should start a group to pair them together!"
"You just met them recently."
"Wait, Anjelika has a point though," Nikki said.
"She does?"
"Yeah, think about it," Nikki said and then started whispering stuff about getting to know them better and seeing how they act towards each other and stuff like that.
"Okay, we start in a few weeks!" Mikan said. "Hey, wait, where are Hotaru and Ruka?"
SNAP! SNAP! SNAP!
"IMAI!"
"Hmm, your pictures aren't good enough today. But they will have to do," Hotaru said. "Come see me again next week." And she ran off.
"IMAI!"
---
"That was fun!" Mikan said. "Let's do it again some time soon!"
"But Mikan, Mr. Misaki's giving us a test soon so we have to study," Nikki said.
"Oh yeah, I forgot about that," Mikan said. "But we can make the time."
"Yeah," Anjelika said. "Well, see ya tomorrow!"
"See ya!" Mikan said.
"Pacheco, remember that we have a practical test on how to blackmail our victim, a.k.a, Ruka," Hotaru said.
"Yes ma'am, I won't forget!" Everyone sweatdropped.
"Anyway, see all of you guys tomorrow!"
"See ya!"
Author's Note: Hi! Thank you for those who reviewed and I'm sorry for not updating too much! You see, my internet time ran out and I had to buy a new card. Anyway, please give suggestions for a title. By the way, the new students are based on real people. The author of 'More than an Angel' is Anjelika while the author of 'My Only Hope' is Celina. Please RxR their stories and mine as well! Oh, and by the way, my name's Nikki so therefore, I'm the Nikki person in the story. Oh, and try to guess who Kyoko is please. It could be Hotaru, Anna, Nonoko, and blah, blah, blah. You have to wait for the NxM pairing later on in the story. There'll be chapters where it'll be one of the character's POV. Oh, and to those mentioned in my story, I'm so sorry if you seem kinda different but I don't know what to do! Anyway, RxR please!
