"Are you okay, Mikan-chan?" Midori asked me.

"Huh? Oh, I'm fine…*pant* just a dream." I said. We had just finished training for a mission and later tonight, our task commences.

Who's Midori? Well, my mom and I met Midori when I was 12 years old. I was training when suddenly Midori popped out of nowhere yelling that he didn't get any sleep because of the noise of my training. He attacked me with a bunch of icicles but I dodged it easily, then he bent down and touched the ground with his index finger and the ground opened up almost immediately. I jumped up a tree and threw a large fireball and it hit him pretty hard. He fell down, and was unconscious for 3 days. My mom and I took care of him since I was the cause of it all. It turned out he had the same alice that I have, SCE. He's on the run for almost a year back then and he hasn't seen his parents since the day they parted ways. So that was when my mom and I decided to train him. He was like a brother to me, like the big brother I never had, but he was just a month older than me…

"we have to get ready now." Midori said, extracting me from my walk down memory lane.

"What are we going to do tonight?" I asked

"A rescue mission, this girl, Hyuuga Aoi has been kidnapped-"

"What?! Aoi! Kidnapped?!" I shrieked. Midori covered his ears from my sudden outburst.

"What? What happened?!" I hissed through my teeth.

Aoi Hyuuga, Natsume's little sister who escaped to the outside world together with her father. She was used as hostage for the academy to make Natsume do missions for them.

"Well, she was kidnapped by the AAO yesterday afternoon when she was walking around a certain park, her father reported it immediately to Gakuen Alice and they asked as to do the mission." He explained

"Is that all? We don't have to retrieve a certain file while we're on the mission?"

"Well… Oh yeah, we have to figure out what the AAO wants with that girl." He replied sheepishly

"Okay then, let's go."

"Fine…" Midori sighed.

=== a few minutes later===

A blood-curdling scream pierced our ears as we observed a girl with crimson eyes being tortured through her mind.

I lit up a blue fireball. (Why blue? I don't know. I just think it contradicts Natsume's flames ^^)

Midori shot me a "not now" look and I replied with a "precaution" look. He shrugged.

Then the scream filled the air again, I stiffened, my eyes lay intent on my prey.

"Tell me, is Natsume Hyuuga the one doing the missions against us?" a man with black hair asked. So that's why they kidnapped Aoi, for questioning. Well, unfortunately they picked the wrong person to kidnap… I've been the one doing the missions against them, and they never found out.

"*pant* I do not know… I don't know what my nii-san does for the academy…*pant*" Aoi replied, face red and cold sweat dripping from her face.

"Tell the truth!" the man shouted and used his alice on her again.

Aoi's scream filled the room again, this time I couldn't stop myself. I threw a fireball at the said man who crumbled and burned to ashes instantly. Midori sighed, he knew I was being provoked by Aoi's screams.

I ran to where Aoi is, and burned the chains constricting her to a sturdy chair. Aoi looked at me, mouth gaping open at the sight of me, good thing I was wearing a mask.

"Midori, get the girl out." I ordered the man who was trailing a little bit behind me.

"Hai!"

"W-who are y-you?" Aoi asked me.

"Let's just say I'm a person to whom you can rely on." I replied.

Midori teleported Aoi outside with the teleportation alice he copied from my mom. I took off to the highest tower, slaying everyone that got in my way by my wind alice. Why was I charging like this? Well, because if someone was operating the security system a while ago, they could've seen us and report us to their higher ups. Destroy evidence, first rule on missions. Midori always lets me handle this part in missions because my alices are much stronger than his and I have more experience, experience on killing everyone inside a room without hesitation. After a few seconds of running from room to room (and killing everyone inside) everything was quiet… well except for the fact that the building's "Intruder Alert" siren was still blaring around the place. I used my x-ray vision to check if Midori and Aoi got safely outside the building, and yes they were. Midori was giving her some first aid on a minor injury.

"Okay then…" I murmured, satisfied by my nights work. Then I blasted the whole building into ashes. I nullified my way out of the wreckage and headed straight to where Midori and Aoi was.

Aoi was staring at me, wide eyed, Midori was gaping at me, too, scrutinizing…

"I like the way you styled your look tonight." He commented, I glanced at my clothes…

My white polo shirt was stained with blood and dirt while my black denim pants was tattered and cut at some places.

"Damn." I cursed as I took in my appearance. Then my gaze fell on Aoi, her jaw almost reaching the ground.

"If you will let your mouth open like that, flies will surely come in." I joked. She closed her mouth and smiled sheepishly at me.

"Are you okay?" I asked her, she smiled a little then nodded.

"Uhm… What is nee-chan's name?" she blushed, thinking if it was right to call me "nee-chan".

"Why would you want to know?"

"Urn… It's just that I feel like I know you…" she answered plainly, face turning redder at the moment. I stiffened, Midori fell silent too.

"Well… Aoi-chan, we're not allowed to give our names away, we're so sorry. But, let me give you a hint-" Midori broke the silence and took off his mask. "My name is Topaz Sun. While this girl here" he pointed at me "is Sapphire Night." I chuckled at the names he gave us. I admit, I like the way Safaiya (Sapphire) and Yoru (night) blended. Safaiya Yoru…

"Yeah, right… Topazu…" I chuckled again.

"Well then, Topazu-nii and Safaiya-nee, thank you for rescuing me…Uhm. They're going to make me go to Gakuen Alice, right?"

"That, we don't know, but it's a possibility since you'll be much safer there." I answered.

"Does nii-san and nee-chan go there?" Aoi asked us. I glanced at Midori, he looked… dazed?

"No, we don't…" I answered plainly.

"Oh… I just thought that you know my nii-san…" she murmured sadly…

Then my cell phone rang I answered it at the second ring.

"Mikan… Get Aoi Hyuuga here at Gakuen Alice now. Her father agreed on letting her stay here." My mom's voice said from the other line…

"Okay…" I answered then I shut my phone up.

"Okay then… Let's get you to Gakuen Alice." I announced to Aoi.

"What?! But my father?!" she shrieked.

"Calm down little girl… Your father agreed on letting you study there since you're much safer inside the school. So come on…" I explained swiftly.

"Wow…" was all Midori said.

Then we teleported to Gakuen Alice's gates.
