As I established in the LAST CHAPTER! Mikan will NOT DIE!!! I think I am the main person on here to kill Mikan off, I don't hate her, it's just no story ends exactly how you want it to, and I only made the alternate chapter because everyone disagreed with her death, except one person, who didn't even bother to read the alternative chapter!
Sorry, I am cranky, but oh well, and Hikari finds her father, NOT Mikan. Now, sorry yet again, I am in a bad mood and not a jolly one today.
Me: ...
Mikan: She doesn't own Gakuen Alice...
Hikari: But she owns ME!
Me: ...
Hikari: She's sour, today, mom...
Mikan: I know... Oh well...
Hikari: ... On with the story, then!
Chapter Four: New School, new Friends! New you!
"Hikari, are you ready for your first day of middle school?" called Mikan, walking into Hikari's room as her daughter gave a small nod, and showed her mother her outfit. It was all black. Black, baggy pants, some fingerless elbow gloves with purple and black stripes, a black shirt with netted sleeves and her hair was in pigtails, with a dyed pink streak in to add effect. Mikan smiled as she stared at her daughter.
She somehow resembled her dearest father that way. Mikan sighed as she stared at Hikari, she didn't have any objectiosn to her daughter dressing that way, but she wondered if she would fit in, is all, because not many people wore black in Japan, unless someone had passed away. Mikan rolled her eyes, America was different, she thought to herself.
"So, you're ready. Oh my, you're growing up! Soon, it will be high school and then... collage!!" Mikan cried out dramatically as she hugged Hikari, who giggled and tried to pull away, trying not to look mildly embaressed as Mikan cried and hugged her daughter tightly, then tried to make her clothes look a little presentable.
"Mom! Don't worry about me, I'll be okay! School will be fine for me! Promise!" Hikari said, proudly as Mikan smiled, nodding and she went to pick up Hikari's new back pack, and she handed the bag to her daughter, and Hikari took it, smiling, then Mikan handed Hikari her MP3 and some money.
"For lunch, and to listen to music. Hikari, remember, no listening to music while your in class, and be a good girl, oh, and don't forget to smile!" Mikan said, her face plastered with her own smile as Hikari giggled, nodding and slipping on her boots. She couldn't wait for her first day of school. She wanted to make it a fun day, like Mikan always did!
"I'll be going now, mom! Have a nice day!" called the young girl, and she ran out of the apartment Mikan had bought and Mikan smiled, waving to her daughter as Hikari ran off. She hoped her first day would go well. Mikan smiled, of course it would...
"Wowzers, this is big!" Hikari mumbled as she stared at the school gates, and saw the kids walking into the school. She saw cheerleaders, jocks and preps, punks, rockers and goths. Some emo's and some geeks. Her eyes widened, mainly cheerleaders and jocks.
"Oh man... Hell." she mumbled, when someone accidentally bumped into her, and she gasped, falling almost face first, until someone caught her by the wrist and pulled her up as she blinked dimly, she hadn't payed attention, and she looked totally clueless. A trait she had been given as a child that was so much like Mikan's. Hikari then shook her head, and stared at whomever held her wrist captive.
"Oi, Joey, you shouldn't barge into people! Joey!" cried a persistnat voice, a manly voice, as well. Hikari stared at the guy as he ran after his friend, waving a fist. He was wearing all black, and his hair was spikey and dark brown. Hikari watched him run as the other guy, Joey, who was blonde haired but also wore black, ran away, grinning.
"Sorry, Gareth!" he croned as Hikari watched them, blinking, then she heard the bell and gasped, running into the building. She needed to pick up her schedule, locker code, books and school map. Hikari was panting by the time she got to the desk, and the receptionist stared at her, eyebrow arched finely.
"Yes?" she asked crisply as Hikari tried to manage a small smile, and she straightened herself up to look presentable.
"Sakura Hikari... I mean, Hikari Sakura, I am a new student here." she replied as the woman stared at her, then rifled through some papers, and produced numerous pieces and handed them to Hikari, rather quickly and she never made eye contact. Hikari blinked. This woman, she was weird, right?
"Here, those are the important things, get your mother, father or parental guardian to sign these things once you get home, here's your homeroom number, and first bell has gone, now, leave." snapped the receptionist as Hikari blinked, then hurridly ran off in the direction of her homeroom, which she couldn't really find, because the school was so big, and all the halls were crowded with students who were talking and laughing, paying no attention to the new girl who was lost.
"This is a pain in the ass!" Hikari groaned as she scanned the halls, where was her damned homeroom? She sighed, and was almost ready to give up, when a hand was on her shoulder, and she turned around, to see a guy standing behind her with glasses and he wore all black. He looked fairly cute.
"Hey, you lost? Are you a newbie?" asked the guy as Hikari stared at him, warily, nodding her head slowly as he smirked,
"What's your homeroom class?" he asked, and Hikari quickly checked her paper, staring at the numbers on it, and stared back up at him,
"Room 306, Mrs Fletcher, do you know where it is?" she asked him as he grinned, nodding, "Sure do, that's my homeroom. Come on, Mrs Fletcher is always late so she won't give you detention. Say, you Japanese?" asked the boy as Hikari nodded, walking with him towards their homeroom.
"Yep, how'd you guess? I thought people would mistake me for chinese people here." Hikari mumbled as he laughed and stared at her, he had to admit, she was cute, and he liked her attitude, innocent but evil, he thought to himself.
"I take Japanese classes, after school, my mom wanted me to enrol in something other than skating or trying to shoot the jocks, so, I took up Japanese, and I like it, that seemed to amaze both e and my father, since he thinks I have no interets in anything or anyone/" he explained as Hikari stared at him, and smiled.
"So, what's your name?" asked the guy suddenly as Hikari stared at him for a small second.
"Hikari Sakura, what's yours?" she asked him politely, and he smiled. She noticed he was WAY taller than she ever would be.
"Mark Lucas, pleased to meet you, and welcome to hell, er, I mean school. Hope you enjoy it here. Oh, if you wanna go for cheerleading try outs, ask our class hottie, Amanda, she is the cheerleading coach and school spirit." Mark explained as Hikari rolled her eyes. She had never really been into cheerleading, although she had always like Gymanstics.
"No thank you, but Gymnastics will go down well with me, if you know that club?" Hikari asked, and Mark smirked, nodding,
"Sure, my cousin's in it, she'll show you the ropes and all that... And can I ask you, how do you know so much english? Mustn't it be hard, being Japanese in an american state?" Mark asked as Hikari smiled, and they stopped in the halls for a second as she stared at him.
"It isn't hard, at all. My mom enrolled us two in english classes when I was 4 years old, and she had taken them in her school before I was born, and she got a B+. I never took english until I was 7 years old in school and I was taken to advanced class because I was more of a 14 year olds level of English, and my Japanese grades were also quite impressive." she said, smiling as he smirked, she wasn't so modest now, was she?
"Wow... Erm, we need to go up these stairs, then, Homeroom." he pointed out, and Hikari smiled, nodding as she followed him up the stairs, where some jocks and cheerleaders were hanging out, and stared at Hikari.
"New girlfriend, Lucas? Although, I thought dweebs couldn't get girlfriends. What is she... Chinese?" snorted a blonde haired cheerleader as Hikari stared at her, then smiled, hands on her hips.
"Chinese? More like, Japanese, dumb ass. And I didn't know bitches could get boyfriends, but I think the ken dolls like plastic. Bye bye, Barbie." she said, and walked off as the blonde watched her, wide eyed and shocked at what Hikari had said, and wanted to scream. Mark was pretty impressed.
"First day and already you have made enemies... You are my idol." he sniffed, and Hikari laughed as they walked into their homeroom, where everyone looked up and saw Hikari, they stared at her as she stood with Mark, and she smiled as Mark tried to go to his seat. Not exactly everyone in the homeroom liked him much. Hikari waved to everyone, then walked to the teachers desk, and showed her the schedule and her things as the teacher nodded. (I dunno what happens in american schools sorry)
"Class, this is our new student, Hikari Sakura, who transferred from America. Make her feel welcome, treat her right and don't out cast her. Treat her like she's a friend, okay?" the teacher asked as everyone nodded, and the teacher walked out briskly as Hikari stared at everyone, smiling as they looked her up and down. Hikari then went to the seat next to Mark, and smiled as she set her bag on the floor, and people turned to look at her more.
"Your from Japan? You look chinese. Are you a cheerleader?" asked a preppy girl as Hikari stared at her, and shook her head as the girl rolled her eyes like it was 'typical', and turned around as Hikari stared at the back of her blonde, layered head.
"No, but I'm a gymnast." Hikari suddenly said, and everyone's attention, including Amanda's, was once again focused on her.
"She speaks english?" Amanda said, bubblegum falling from her mouth as everyone stared at Hikari, and she smiled, nodding. Everyone seemed a little taken aback since she spoke perfect english.
"I'm fluent in English, Japanese, Korean and French." she explained as they stared at her more, and then a black haired girl stood up, smiling brightly.
"Hi! Welcome to the homeroom! I'm Lizzy Lucas, Mark's cousin. The captain of the Gymnasts team!" she cried out happily as Hikari smiled. She hoped she would have fun in America... She hoped to find fellow Natsume Hyuuga fans, as well...
"Did you hear, the hot Natsume Hyuuga is performing next montyh! It will be his 13th concert here in America!" Amanda said that lunch at the popular table while Hiakri listened in on it, and rolled her eyes. She sat at Mark's table, with Lizzy and their other friend, Tyrant, who was really called that. He looked pale and only ate chicken at lunch.
"You know, Natsume Hyuuga is full Japanese but learnt fluent english before he became a top hot singer." Hikari explained as Mark shrugged, he already knew that, and Lizzy looked half amazed. She was another Hyuuga fan. Like half the popular people were fans, as well.
"Wowzers, your full of suprises, Hikari. Oh, I wish I had tickets to his concert. He is so cool." mumbled Lizzy as Hikari smiled, of course, she had pre-ordered her tickets, she was well organized, and she had her own tickets, plus a back stage pass which would come in handy when she went to tell her father the whole story.
IF she went to see him at the concert. She wasn't so sure if Mikan would let her go... Unless Hotaru used a little pursuasion.
"I might go, I love all his songs! I have every single one of them on my MP3 and I have posters and pictures on my computer and laptop!" Hikari explained as she ate her burger and Lizzy smiled.
She was glad there was another sane person who loved her fave singer, other than the preps and cheerleaders. She sighed and went back to eating her salad and chicken nuggets as Hiakri stared over at the popular table, rolling her eyes as that Amanda blonde girl started flirting with numerous guys, trying to get their lunch money.
"Was she born evil?" Hikari asked, and Lizzy and Mark gave small nods as Tyrant played with his hair and a rubix cube, getting all the colours done in seconds flat as Hikari watched him in amazement.
"Wow, Tyrant. You have a talent!" she smiled, but he just grunted to show her he was listening. Mark and Lizzy rolled their eyes, typically. It was normal for them as Hikari smiled towards Tyrant.
"He's normally like this, rarely ever talks. He is SO weird, right?" Lizzy said as Hikari rolled her eyes again and kept her gaze on Tyrant. Lizzy just laughed as he sat there, finishing 2 more rubix cubes and then eating his chicken before leaving them all to eat without him. Lizzy sighed.
"He's weird..." she mumbled, mainly to herself, and her hair fell in her face. Did Hikari just hear disappointment in Lizzy's voice...?
