Natsume's P.O.V:
When I first saw her on the ground I thought that it couldn't possibly be Mikan. But…after Narumi said what he did…I needed to make sure.
But seriously, are things going to go back to normal? Or not? And why the hell did I try and-UGH! I just don't know anything anymore! How is it that she could be so-
Third Person:
"Oi Hyuu-ga~!" A cold and recognizable voice whispered through his ears, sending a shudder down his spine.
Natsume jumped away in fright.
"What the hell's got you so distressed? Last time I saw you, you were about to break out and now you're here bending over with your head in your hands." Hotaru asked suspiciously.
After Mikan left Hotaru stopped making her inventions and became even creepier, if possible. She suddenly started sitting in the back of class, as well as not paying attention, and her grades dropped along with her star rank, she completely changed. Every time she got enough money she would buy Halolowon (I think that's how you spell it) and put it outside Mikan's old room. It was like she was possessed. Possessed by Mikan and all thoughts, memories, and traits of her. She hadn't cut her hair either and it was now down to her waist. Her eyes were still purple, but they always seemed sad, confused, and lost.
"Huh? Oh nothing! It's just…she's back…" Natsume replied, looking out the window. Hotaru froze, her eyes widening.
"What?" She asked in a husky voice.
Natsume opened his mouth to speak but when he looked back to where Hotaru was…she was gone.
"Man that girl works fast…!" He remarked as he turned around.
Natsume stumbled back when Hotaru re-appeared only a few inches from his face.
'There is no way this woman is human! Absolutely a phantom! A Phantom!' Natsume told himself.
Mikan slammed the pen down and fell back against the couch.
"Finally! I thought I'd never finish!" She cried out.
Narumi brought over a cup of tea and she sat up again. "Seriously, what's with you and tea, Naru-Sensei?" She asked before taking a sip.
He didn't reply. Mikan frowned. He really wasn't himself at all. But why?
Mikan put the cup down and stood up.
"Narumi-Sensei…Can I go now? I'd like to say Hi to my friends and go to my room." Mikan asked politely.
Narumi just nodded and Mikan's brow furrowed deeper. She left without another word.
Mikan's world had previously revolved around the academy and everyone in it. But as Mikan walked down the path along the Sakura Garden, she realized that world was gone. That was five years ago. She had changed, her friends had changed…her world had been reborn as an unpleasant being. But still. She couldn't put her finger on what it was that made Narumi, most of all, so different.
"MI~KAA~N!" A voice shouted and Mikan snapped out of her thoughts.
Someone was running towards her. Unfortunately, she couldn't register who it was because she was hit in the forehead by something that made a loud… 'Baka!' sound.
Mikan sat up, holding her head.
"Hotaru…you probably shouldn't greet people like that." A worried voice came and Mikan recognized it easily.
"Luca-Pyon! Hotaru!" She exclaimed as she jumped up and pounced on Luca, wrapping her arms around his neck.
"Ah! I-it's b-been a while, hasn't it, S-sakura-san?" He asked, blushing.
Mikan let go and went to hug Hotaru. Surprisingly, Hotaru hugged her back warmly.
"You definitely look 100% cuter with such a broad smile, Mikan." She said as they broke the hug.
This made Mikan smile even more broadly, if possible. A shout came from the trees above and a green haired girl pounced on Mikan's back, making her stumbled back and forwards.
"Mikan! You finally came back! I'm sooo happy now!" She exclaimed as Mikan tried to pull her off.
The girl was heavy and as Mikan struggled to pull her off she fell to the ground. The girl stood up and pulled Mikan up by the scruff of her neck. The girl was Permy.
Permy had changed a lot. Her looks were the same, but her wild, and sometimes annoying, behaviour had diminished. She had forgotten about the Natsume and Luca fan-club and was usually asked to sit out of P.E. classes due to the force she built with all of her pent up anger and sadness. But the Permy that stood in front of Mikan…was the old Permy. Just as wild and happy as she always had been.
"Permy…you shouldn't do that to her either! She just got back! Give her a break!" Luca hissed again and Permy frowned.
She stormed over to him and leaned in so her face was a few centimetres away from Luca's. He looked down at her eyes in a slightly frightened matter.
"Eeeh? You said something…Pyon-Pyon?" She asked with a glint in her eyes.
"It's Luca, damn it!" He shouted back and Permy just walked back to Mikan.
Luca hadn't changed too much; he was the one who had been trying to get people to cheer up and forget about Mikan…but to no prevail. Although he did this, in truth he was suffering as well. He really had loved Mikan, just like Natsume, but he knew Mikan would be sad if she saw the state everyone was in and decided to try and make them the way Mikan would want them.
Another shout came from behind them all and they looked back.
"Oh? They sure do work fast. I only sent them the message a few minutes ago." Permy said as the five ran up to the four, huffing and puffing.
Yuu was the first to recover, although his face was still red. He hugged Mikan and welcomed her back and she smiled very happily. Then there was Kokoro and Kitsuneme.
These three had also been depressed (A lot of the gang were) but they, like Luca, knew Mikan would be sad, or even angry, if they dropped their standards and soon became apart of the student council.
Nonoko ran up and hugged her friend tightly, jumping up and down.
"YAY! Your back! Your really back!" She exclaimed, hugging her again.\
"Sure am! Where's Anna?" Mikan asked and Nonoko told her she was having trouble with her shop.
Mikan was shocked to hear she had a shop, it was incredible news!
Anna and Nonoko had become silent to everyone but themselves and worked together only. After a while they had bought two shops, side by side, in cental town that had become their collaboration shops. Anna's half was a sweets store and Nonoko's was a chemistry sort of store (I apologize I have no idea what to call it), these turned their store into a magical café/restaurant with many exciting decorations and a new theme each day.
The last person to arrive was Youichi. The devil. The brat. The one who would protect Mikan with everything and anything. (Other than Natsume)
He walked up and hugged Mikan's waist. He was eight now. Mikan smiled down at him and sat on her knee's to hug him back. Youichi managed to give her a peck on the cheek before she stood up again.
Youichi hadn't changed at all. But he had released a very dangerous aura from when Mikan left till today. His eyes were still their beautiful and enchanting emerald green and his hair had lost its silver, becoming white.
With the gang pretty much back together Mikan was glad no-one had changed, or so she thought.
"Ne, ne, Mikan? Want to go to mine and Anna's store? You'll love it!" Nonoko suggested and Mikan agreed.
Only Hotaru, Permy and Youichi came with them. The rest had things to do.
When they all arrived at 'Wonderland'. Mikan was awestruck. There weren't many people there, partly because of classes, but the place was still fairly busy.
There were three girls running around frantically, taking orders and serving food.
They were all dressed in pink gowns with frills and glittery items. Wearing tiarason their heads, and roller-blades on they're feet, they worked amazingly as a team.
"Today is a Princess Theme. Yesterday it was a Fairy Theme. This week is all about girl fantasies. And Next week it'll be Fairytales." Nonoko said as she waved a girl over.
Nonoko whispered in her ear and she looked shocked but nodded and skated off into the back room.
Around the place was different glowing, moving and exploding chemical inventions and there was music playing in the background, although it was very hard to hear.
Suddenly the music stopped, the lights turned off and someone stepped up on the stage at the far right of the room.
"Good afternoon! And welcome to Wonderland!" The blond said, waving his hand to a long table in the middle of the room.
"It's your birthday today right, little girl?" He asked as a purple spotlight singled the girl out.
Her eyes were sparkling with awe.
"Yes, Mr. Prince-Sama!" She answered.
Permy made a gagging noise.
"Seriously, why do Anna and Nonoko put up with this?" She questioned but was hushed by Nonoko's hand.
The blond pulled her up on stage and whispered something in her ear. She whispered back and the blond stood up, straightened his white tailcoat and signalled someone up the back. A song started playing.
Three girls came out in cosplay and the blond moved off stage. One of the girls, wearing a red-pink wig took the girls hand and smiled at her before looking at the crowd.
"kaerimichi surechigau shunkan sono manazashi RUURU ihan ja nai? kakehiki wa shinai TACHI dakedo ne shikata nai kara ukete tatou ja nai!" The three began singing and dancing on the stage and singing.
"kantan! mujaki na koi miseru no wa. kontan? miemie na little girl. jakkan... MURIme na SUTOORII. akkan! akkerakan to KIMOCHI uchiakete."
"seishun naraba Happy Go Lucky! NAI mono nedari All right PYUA na HAATO wo misereba in ja nai? sono ba shinogi de! seishun nante Happy Go Lucky! umaku yuku ka wakannai dakedo cute na SEORII misetsukete furimukaseru yo!..." Permy rolled her eyes but Nonoko stood with her arms folded looking like she was examining the performance.
Mikan and Hotaru watched without care and Youichi…looked lost. He seemed to be staring at one of the girls and blushing. This didn't go unnoticed. Mikan looked down at him and realized he was obviously admiring one of them. She smiled devilishly and whispered in Hotaru's ear. She didn't move, her face stayed the same, but there was obviously a glint of evil in her eye.
"…seishun nante
Happy Go Lucky!
umaku yuku ka wakannai
dakedo cute na SEORII misetsukete
furimukaseru yo!" The girls finished after a while and the tune went on for a little bit longer whilst the girls danced with the birthday girl.
"Say Happy 8th Birthday to Saika Mikiri!" They said in unison and the crowd clapped loudly.
The name sprung something in Mikan's mind, but she couldn't place her finger on it.
"Saika…Mikiri…?" Youichi copied.
Nobody noticed this, lucky for him.
Aaah~ young love! I mean-! Ah crap! Oh well, hope you liked it! ^_^
Yes it was short again but oh well, its the way I roll.
Btw the song is Happy Go Lucky from the anime: Himechen! Otogi-tic Idol LilPri!
