Recap...

"Sorry for the delay class. I see that you have all sorts of ideas for the trip. Thank you for your contribution. Now, I'll be telling you the outcome of the meeting yesterday."

The class fell silent and went back to their original seats.

Mr. Narumi looked at the class. He noticed the absent students.

"First of all, I'll go through with the attendance. Just tell me the ones who're out so that I could explain the meeting afterwards." He smiled

--Five minutes later--

"So that's Akatsuki Maya…Dionela Jaylee… Hyuuga Natsume… Imai Hotaru and Kaji Hide… The attendance is done so let's go on to the meeting, shall we?" The class had their hearts beating in a sharp rate.

"Ehem… I'm happy to announce to you that the tour is ON" Several 'Yahoo's were heard.

"The trip will be on the 12th of July. Your class will be with the second graders an--" He was interrupted by three gentle knocks on the door.

"May I come in sensei? They're here." Said the voice.

"Wait for a while Jaylee" Mr. Narumi responded back. He then turned to his pupils and continued; "I forgot to tell you class: New students will be joining us and uhm... this class will be over soon and I won't be here to explain the details. Leaflets will be again given to all of you later. Now then Jaylee, bring them in" he smiled.

Students were a bit upset but they continued to be patient. It's really rare to have transferees nowadays. Especially in the last year of middle school. Jaylee entered the room with Natsume and Hotaru. The three black-haired students were followed also followed by two black-haired newbies. One was a boy, the other was a girl. It seemed that they were twins. They had the same sociable expression on their face and they have the same eye color. 'They look so friendly…' Mikan thought and smiled to herself.

Mikan averted her eyes from the window and eyed them from head to foot. The boy had a weird hairstyle on him. It had spikes at the end and it was the most unique hairdo Mikan ever seen. She then looked at the girl. The girl had this cute smile on her face. She has long black hair that reaches her waist. Her fringe was fastened on each side of her face by a pair of blue and green ribbons. She has two silver hoop earrings on her left ear and one on her right.

"Welcome to Alice Academy! Please introduce yourselves! Excuse me but I have to go now. My name's Narumi. Feel free to call me Naru-sensei. Mr. Misaki won't be in for the next class so use it to welcome our new students" Mr. Narumi then waved adieu and run off the room.

Hotaru, Natsume and Jaylee went back to their seats. Yuu stood up and held out his hand. "Yuu Tobita, better known as Iinchou. Please do introduce yourselves" The boy shook his hand and began introducing.

"Hajimemashite… Ninomiya Shouta desu. I really am pleased to make your acquaintance" He lets go of Yuu's hand and took a step back. The girl took Yuu's hands in hers and smiled a little.

"Ninomiya Maika. Shouta-kun is my brother. We're obviously twins. Nice to meet you all!" she said and lets go of Yuu's hand.

Sumire raised her hand and when Yuu saw her, he nodded for her to question the newcomers.

"Shouta-san, Maika-san, what are your alices?"

Maika turned to her brother, and said: "Onii-chan?"

He just replied to her with a smile.

"Ehm… Mine's the Copy Alice. It's self-explanatory really. I can copy an Alice. " The class had their eyes widened. Natsume knew that this girl will be used for missions. He didn't mind much because missions were his part time jobs. The real things will happen next year.

Shouta cleared his throat and began, "and mine's the Erase Alice. If my sister gets too much alice, it would be my job to erase them since she doesn't know how to control them. I can remember that Alice and use it to return that Alice if I wish, back to its owner. I can only use the alices I remember at a low level. The Alices I remember will only go back to its original owner."

The class was impressed by the twins' alices. Yuu gestured them to their seats. There was an extra row behind Mikan's, Natsume's and Ruka's row. Maika was facing Mikan's back while Shouta faced Natsume's. Beside Shouta was Jaylee.

The class greeted them hello's and welcome as they sat down. They then kept quiet after that. They were scared that Natsume might get annoyed. Yuu was giving out the leaflets.

"Hey there. Sakura Mikan desu. Call me Mikan-chan. Hope we can be friends. Beside me is Natsume and beside him is Ruka-pyon. You can ask me around later. Why don't you join us for lunch?" Mikan turned to Maika and Shouta.

"Sure. We only know Natsume, Jaylee-chan and Hotaru here. We were with Natsume-kun and Jaylee on our way here and we met Hotaru. I'll tell you more later at lunch Mikan-chan. And please call me Mai-chan or just Mai. Call my brother Shou-kun or whatever you like" Maika smiled at her.

"Nice to meet you. Hope we can all know each other better later" Shouta added.

The class then began reading the leaflets. It was a normal one, thank God. A plain white sheet of paper

It said…

The Scheduled Trip for the students

As promised, the staff had decided about the trip. Class 4-B, you are to spend your trip on Miss Jaylee Dionela's beach resort.

Things to bring:

Beach items (sunscreen, lotions, swimsuits, towels etc.)

Money

Student I.D. card

Clothes enough for two weeks

Whatever you want

Regarding number 5, we obviously will NOT permit students to bring dangerous materials such as bombs and guns.

We will provide the students an 'All around trip helper' courtesy of Miss Hotaru Imai. It will come as a bracelet. We are already in the process of buying them off from the said inventor. These bracelets will be worn by all students: Elementary, Middle school and High school. Further instructions about the bracelet will be given at the day of your trip.

Your trip will last from the 12th until the 25th of July.

Thank you.

-Yamada Serina

The group of students cheered. The bell rang and they had their next class. All were waiting for lunch time.
