Her Wings but His Light

Chapter 4

"I am really sorry about falling onto you but I think I have the wrong room. I'm looking for my friend-" "You're looking for Hyuuga right?" He looked at her again as she smiled the smile she kept only for her friends. "M-Mikan? S-Sakura Mikan?"

"The one and only, Ruka-pyon. How has your bunny been?"

NORMAL POV

"Mikan!" Ruka gasped. "I haven't seen you since you escaped the academy! I thought the other agencies caught you or something!" He blurted out. "Ah, well of course they did. What fun would it be if I just kept running forever? But, my onii-sama has a job in each of these agencies and helps me escape each one." Mikan winked. Natsume sat there with a confused expression.

Ruka remembered why he was here. "NATSUME!" He jumped on the bed Natsume lay on and hugged him to death. Natsume groaned. He hated moments like this, but he hugged his friend back. "Release me." He finally spat when Ruka's hug was getting old. Ruka drew back and began talking.

"Natsume, how have you been? Are you and Mikan still best friends? How has Yuuki been? Did she come out when you were in danger? I would assume she did." Ruka went on and on.

Mikan put her face in her palm. Natsume zoned out and left one thought lingering in his head. "Me and Mikan... We were best friends?" Nastume thought aloud

. "No, I just me-" Ruka inturrupted Mikan. "Yes! You guys have been friends since you were young! Then again you aren't that old so I suppose that isn't a long time..."

"That's not possible. I just met Mikan." Natsume said with a dull expression, whacking the back of Ruka's head, playfully. "What have you been smoking while I was gone?"

He got out of the bed and walked towards the door. "See ya guys at school." And with that, he left. "Natsume! Wait for me!" Ruka ran after him, then came back. "Ciao." He said with a wide grin on his face.

Mikan sighed. "Looks like I'm going back to the academy." Yuuki nodded.

NATSUME'S POV

This isn't possible. I just met her... Then again, I got the feeling that I knew her from somewhere. It made me somewhat uncomfortable to be around her. I felt a pain. I felt like crying... She is a multiple alice user, She could've easily erased my memories of her.

Well, whatever this is, I will find out.

When me and Ruka got outside I sat down under a tree. Something began poking me. "OH! So you aren't sick." A voice from above me said. "Andrew!" Ruka exclaimed. "What are you doing here?" He asked. "Oh, nothing. Just the normal thing. Poking people with sticks." Andrew said nonchalantly, as he kept poking me with a stick.

I growled and lit the stick on fire.

Andrew jumped out of the tree and stood in front of me. "Aw, someones a little sensative." He smiled innocently. He had shaggy red hair and light green, playful eyes. He looked like he wasn't completely Japanese. He also acted somewhat cat like. "Ha! Andrew! Your ears!" Ruka laughed.

Andrew smoothed his hair and, while in the process, realized his cat ears were out. "My ears!" He chuckled. He also had a tail at the moment. "I guess I'm happy!" Andrew exclaimed.

"Natsume, Andrew has the ShapeShifting alice. He mainly uses his cat form to spy so his ears come out a lot like when he's happy or curious. He is also half American and was abandoned at a young age." Ruka said.

"My parents," Andrew's expression turned cold, then went blank.

"They wanted a child. Frankly, I was a freak in their eyes. They abandoned me here, in Japan. I was heart broken. I grew up on my own and fended for myself. You see, I would watch over my parents. I have, well, had a little brother. His name was Bryce. My father was mad at my mother for having freaks as children each time. He would abuse her and he killed Bryce. My mom soon died of a disease. Then, when I thought all was lost, I ment this girl. She had the most beautiful eyes and adittude. I've been looking for her ever since then. As I recall, her name was Mikan." My eyes widened.

Mikan. MIKAN. He loves Mikan.

Then again, why should I care? Because you love her. Look into your memories. Try hard to remember.

Something in my head spoke to me. I tried to remember, small snippits of memories circling my head. I then blacked out.

Natsume- Tch, you make me pass out way too much.

Me- Pshhh, I didn't do that on purpose in the first 3 chapters. I did it now cause I wanted to :P.

Nastume- *Twitches* ARGH! GIVE ME THAT GOD **** STICK
