"Every maiden should attend the royal ball in search for the next princess to be married by my one and only son, the prince Natsume Hyuuga, signed by your highness, the king..." after that announcement the group of guards clad in heavy armor along with the royal announcer.
After that natsume hurried home fuming in anger about what he heard. With Mikan, she wasn't allowed to eat any dinner tonight because of her tardiness of a minute. The poor lass remembered what her stepmother and stepsisters did to her a while ago before they left her in her room...
Mikan's POV
Wow! A ball?! I've never been to a ball... I wish I could come... But I don't have any dress... this is all I've got, a pair of ugly shoes and patched old maid suit.
'Can I go to the ball?' I asked my stepmother with a tint of hope in my voice.
I hoped for a yes but nothing came out but only laughs of the 3 wicked witches. They laughed their hearts out, tears forming in their eyes. Sumire was there rolling on the floor laughing like no tomorrow. Luna can't believe of what she heard and started laughing like my face was that funny.
'You think anyone as hideous like you would be liked by the prince?! You look horrid! At the sight of you, the prince will faint...'
A thousand needles pricked my heart when I heard that. It stung, stung like hell, at a moment I thought I wanna die. I wanna kill those ugly witches, but if I ever hurt one of them they'll cast a spell on me.
'LOOK AT THE MIRROR, BITCH!' I felt my hair being pulled by that perm sumire as she showed my face on the mirror, then luna continued 'THAT HORRIBLE FACE, THINK THAT WILL BE LIKED BY THE PRINCE! ENOUGH WITH THAT DREAM OF YOURS! A PERSON LIKE YOU DO NOT DESERVE A HAPPY ENDING! HAHAHAHA!' Am I that ugly to be hated?, am I that horrible to be treated as a trash?! Do I not deserve to live?, do I not deserve to be happy?
Why do I have to be treated like this? I want to be respected, I'm also a human. I felt my tears welling up in my eyes but I tried my very best to prevent it from falling. I sat there in the dark, with my head bowed, trying to build up my shattered hopes.
I can hear the sound of their sandals getting away from my room. At that moment, at that minute, I promised to myself, I will not give up! I deserve a dream come true!
End of POV
"OTOU-SAN" the voice of prince natsume hyuuga came in roaring in the room.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THE BA-" he was cut off when he saw his cousin, Hotaru along with his best friend, Ruka sitting.
"It's been a while..." Natsume was greeted with a warm smile by his childhood buddy.
"What brought you here?!" the raven haired lad asked the lavender-eyed princess in front of him.
"I want crabs..." the oh-so-calm genius inventor said so calm as she remained emotionless.
"Crabs?!" he asked patiently as a vein popped out from his head.
"Food..." she remained there emotionless.
"Food?!" the gorgeous young boy asked controlling his temper.
"On the ba-" a loud deep happy voice cut the ice queen.
"Prince Ruka from the Nogi kingdom, how's it been?! I heard you've mastered your animal pheromone alice..." the king hugged the blond so tight that ruka began to choke.
"Oh sorry..." the king released his hug as the group sweat dropped at the sight.
"Oh, what do we have here, you've gotten very pretty, Princess Hotaru of Imai kingdom..." The loving king kissed the lass on the cheek.
"I want crabs on the ball... Oh! I forgot! This is the Baka Gun 1.6, shoots better than the last version. And it'll upgrade faster and aims far too. And I've added instructor's voice too. To all of those who wants to buy, contact Imai kingdom and buy this latest version of Baka gun for 130,000 rabbits only..." the raven haired girl said to no one. At the sight of the inventor they all sweat dropped.
"What ball?!" Natsume asked with a cold tone.
"Oh we've decided set a ball up in search for the next princess, your fiance..." his mom day dreamingly explained everything with her eyes glittering with joy and hope.
"But I have someone I love..." he whispered the last part of his phrase as he looked at the marble floor as his lips made a frown.
"Did you say something, darling?" A woman that is called 'your highness' with a golden shining tiara along with a red ruby on the center asked her crimson-eyed son.
"Nothing," Natsume said plainly as he walked out of the room.
Mikan escaped from the house, nothing in hand, to the lake near central town, as she gathered all her guts not minding the consequences of her escape.
With Natsume, he was in his room, reading his manga, bored. Little he didn't know that her mother went out of the palace wearing a crimson cape.
The queen, walked through the streets of the Hyuuga Kingdom not knowing she dropped her crest.
"Is there any of your fluff puffs, sir?!" she acted like a young lady with respect for the old man. Since the beginning, this former princess doesn't like to be treated more special than others.
"Yes, young lady, there are 3 large boxes left..." the old man replied smiling.
"How much does a box cost, sir?!" the queen tried to act innocent as a young lass.
"Let's see... 25 rabbits for the small sized, 35 rabbits for the regular sized and 50 rabbits for the large size...will you buy it?!" he explained.
"Yes, I'll take it all sir." She stated and handed a thousand rabbits and left.
"Wait! your change miss!" the old man shouted aloof.
"It's yours..." she replied softly but the man heard it, thanking the old man for being a humble and nice.
"Thank you...May God bless you..." the man said in a whisper.
The queen looked for her golden crest and was shocked to have her thing lost. Dark Grey clouds started to form as it started to drizzle big drops.
In no time the heavy rain started and good thing for the queen she brought an umbrella. She stared at the girl from afar and look at her.
She neared the crying girl and shared the umbrella with her.
"Why are you crying?!" she asked at the girl as she kneeled down in front of the crouching girl.
"I found this and I wanted to give it back to the owner but i don't know him or her..." Mikan said sniffing.
The queen was shocked to see the crest in her hand but again she smiled.
"It's mine..." she said as she removed her cape and showed her that she's the queen.
"I'm so sorry your highness for talking with you like that..." the young lass immediately bowed at her.
"Thank you! I'll leave now..." mikan said as she handed the golden crest and ran through the rain.
"WAI-" the queen said but then smiled
"I like that girl, I"ll search for her... and surely, Natsume will like her. She has an alice too, the nullification and copying alice she'll change the alice world for sure..., after all she healed me..." looking at her hand where her her bruise was located before.
Mikan's POV
I just can't believe I talk to the queen... She's so pretty and kind too... I wonder what is she doing out there...
I just ran and realized that i don't have any place to go. I felt a warm liquid welling up in my eyes, and realized it's been a while since i showed tears... Tears have been always in me... I don't even know why I don't just dehydrate and die...
I tripped and fell, i feel i can't go on anymore... I shifted my position and cried more, watching the rain fall into me... I remembered all the happy memories I made here on Alice...
They say when you're near your death you'll remember all the things you've made... and that's what is happening to me...
Natsume sat there, on the futon and sensed something wrong is happening. He immediately wore his coat and fetch his horse.
He rode his horse fast and went to the enormous wet silver gates of the palace and went off not minding the voice of his father.
"NATSUME, COME BACK HERE IT'S RAINING HARD OUTSIDE YOU'LL GET SICK!!" his father shouted as the queen tried to calm him.
"It's okay natsume's not a kid anymore let him be..."She smirked. "As if you weren't like that before..." she kissed him on the cheek.
"DAD! will you lower your voice down I'm trying to sleep here..." A cute young girl in the age of 14 pouted at the old man. She has raven colored hair that was tied on two braids that made its way below her shoulders. She has a pair of crimson eyes and she was hugging a big bear, rubbing her eyes. Yes, indeed, she Princess Aoi Hyuuga, sister of Natsume...
