Okay, in my defense, I have no reason. Because, I have actually written half of the 9th chapter and LONG time ago but... I'm a lazy arse butt so... :) But, I have to tell you, I cant update because of 1) My comp has no Microsoft Word. We renovated the house and I got a laptop for Christmas so this comp has like, no Microsoft Word, the only thing I know how to use to update Fanfiction. 2) I'm studying for finals that's coming up next year. Yeah, for you Singaporeans who know when PSLE is yes, it's a long time away but hey, I wanna get a real high score xb
So yeah, well, here's the 8th Chapter... ENJOY.
I do not own Gakuen Alice
Enjoy…
The door to the classroom opened. "Where is she?" A man shouted.
"I'm sorry sir but we have no idea what you're talking about." Yuu acted innocent.
The man and the class started a staring contest.
Chapter 8
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ()()()Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ
"Natako, how did you get pass the gates in the first place? I thought the last time when you got out you had to blow up the gates!"
"It's a trick I learnt over the two years that I was out of that hell hole. You didn't think I learnt nothing did you?" Mikan smirked.
"Woman you smirk way too much."
"Why thank you! I'm so touched!"
Everyone in the pub just shook their heads and laughed. That was their little junior for them. Always in for a fun time of sarcasm with that 'I'll do what I want' attitude.
Gakuen Alice
"Class, I'm sure you all know about the recent break into the academy because of that, all students are to be in their room for the next few weeks so we can investigate how that person got into the academy." Narumi sang to the class. "So, you may all go back to your dorms now! Have good weeks!" Narumi danced out of the classroom.
Everyone started packing and flowing out of class all around the academy. The halls were filled with students walking back to their respective dorms.
Three knocks were heard on the door of Hyuuga Natsume. The door opened.
"Imai."
"Hyuuga."
"What are you doing here? In front of my dorm door?"
"Don't you want to know how your dear Mikan got into the academy and out so easily?" Even though you couldn't see it, Hotaru winked.
"What if I say I don't need your help Imai?"
Hotaru scoffed. "We both know that, that isn't true Hyuuga."
"God, the world must be coming to an end." Natsume groaned. (A/N: or did he? D)
He opened the door and Hotaru walked in bringing a wagon of things in with her.
"What's all that crap you're bringing into my room Imai?"
"It's not 'crap' Hyuuga." Natsume rolled his eyes.
"One day those eyes of yours will just pop out I swear to God."
"Nn." Natsume walked into the room with his hands in his pocket.
In Natsume's Room
When Hotaru entered the room and locked the door, Natsume was locking the windows and all. When every possible entrance to the room was finally sealed, Hotaru began opening boxes that were in her wagon. Soon, an invisible shield was formed around Natsume's room.
"Imai, what are you here for?"
"We have a request to go to headquarters in two months' time."
"How do you know?"
"Yuka contacted me telling me to get the others ready. She saw a vision on Mikan going to the head and she wants to make sure Mikan sees all of us."
"For introduction? Shouldn't Mikan already be a part of it all?"
"The ESP had too much of a grip on her when she was still in the Academy because he knew what Mikan could do, and what she did do, escape."
"Didn't she contact her those two years? I thought…."
"She wanted to wait for Mikan to go to her not the other way round."
"Then…."
"March. Rei is going to give us the details soon. Knowing that Mikan is going to be a part of us soon gives me the feeling that the war is going to start very soon."
"How much longer then?"
"I'm not sure, but all I can tell you is that you should be prepared for the most unpredictable. I don't think it's going to start with people already planned on what to do and soldiers marching up in formation. It's going to be messy. Be prepared for the most gruesome fight you've ever seen in your life Hyuuga. Well, make sure not to plan anything big in March okay?" Hotaru packed and began walking out of the room. "See you…" She muttered before she totally closed the room door.
2 Months Later (March)
Mikan's Apartment
Mikan lay on her bed trying to find something to do. I can't visit them since I just did and if visits get too regular they would find out…maybe… Mikan grinned. She took out her laptop and started typing.
An Hour Later
"Mikan, is that really you?"
"Mummy!" Mikan and Yuka hugged for a while before letting go of each other.
"Why are you here? How did you even get out? Has it really been 7 years, oh dear me."
"Mummy, I have my ways! Plus, it's a real long story and, yes mummy, it's been 7 years." Mikan giggled.
"I want to know everything my little muffin has been up to. Do you still remember how you used to love muffins dear?"
Mikan laughed. "Yes! I was still so young then!"
"Indeed. Not the fine woman you've grown to be now."
"Mummy, I'm only 17 years old."
"A very fine 17 year old… so, tell me. What happened?"
"Well…"
Another Hour Later :\
"…so that's all that happened I guess."
"You sang at the Christmas Ball? That's so cool. Oh, I almost forgot, since you're here, I want you to meet a few of the people who I've been with the past 7 years since I had to give you up to the Academy."
"Okay, let's go now then."
After 10 Minutes of Driving (So many time skips LOL)
"Mikan, welcome to the AP Headquarters'. It's underground as you've noticed. Some of the people you'll also notice you actually know. We're actually connected to some of the Alice Academies just so you know."
"But…."
"I'll explain everything to you clearly in due time just come with me first. There're some people who can't to see you and yes we automatically speak English once we enter this place. It's the most common language after all…"
Yuka and Mikan walked into a room. There were many people lined up in the room. Kids in front, adults behind, teens in the middle. They had people whose ages ranged from 2-imortal.
When Mikan entered the room there was eight people who caught her eye.
"Katie, Robin, Melvin, Spencer, Alex, Hotaru, Natsume, Luna? You're shitting me. You're totally shitting me this isn't true right?"
"Is that really anyway to greet us polka?"
Mikan sighed. She suddenly realized something. "Wait, I can understand Katie, Robin, Melvin, Spencer, Alex, Hotaru and Natsume… but Luna?"
(A/N: Alex is one of them. Mikan and him made up in those 4 years... yadi yadi yada.)
"Mikan, Luna was being mind controlled all along."
Luna gave a sheepish smile. "I'm sorry for all the hurt I've caused you in the past Mikan. If you allow me to call you that of course I can totally understand if you don't even want to talk to me after everything I've done."
Silence engulfed the room for a while. The atmosphere got tenser and tenser by the minute.
"It's okay Luna-chan. You didn't mean any of it after all right? I'm sure we'll be great friends." Mikan gave Luna a sunny smile.
God how I miss that smile of hers. Natsume thought.
"If you wanted me to smile more you could have just told me Natsume." Mikan laughed.
Natsume blushed but covered it with his bangs. Mikan said hello to all her friends again and it carried on like that for the rest of the afternoon. When evening came, Natsume, Hotaru and Luna had to go back to the school. Yuka led Mikan to a room that was made especially for her. When Mikan was in the room Yuka told her to sit down on her bed while she told Mikan all about the AP.
"The AP was first organized by the High School Principal of Alice Academy America and Alice Academy Germany, the two largest Academies' in the world. At first, it was about trying to save all the Alices that were taken by the AAO but, as the AP grew bigger, and they got more information, it was also becoming related to taking down the Elementary School Principal of Alice Academy Japan. They recruited people whom they knew they could 100% trust and that's why at the same time, the AP isn't that big either.
For the Academies with students willing to join the AP were also invited in. Here's where the important part comes in. The few students who are actually invited in, when they reach the age of 18, they gain a certain type of a 'power up'… It only happens to a few Alices as it is in their blood and most of the time it'd be those who are in the dangerous ability class. We try to get them before they can fall into the hands of the AAO. Alice Academy Japan on the other hand, we're protecting them from the Elementary School Principal.
To the people who don't know about the AP, this entire building, that we've bought, looks like an office building. There are higher levels because of rooms where some of the people in the AP live in. To half the people here this is their home after all.
Going to the subject of the Elementary School Principal of Alice Academy Japan, for those who resisted him, they would be mind controlled, like Luna. We had tried ways and means to get to the Dangerous Ability class of the Academy. Even the High School and Middle School Principals couldn't help us. Until, one day, we stumbled across a little black sparrow. Just like that, we had everyone we needed. All, but you Mikan. Now our collection is complete.
There's still a bit to tell but I think I'll leave you tonight to do whatever you want with your room and yes, you can connect your room with your apartment.
Oh, yes I almost forgot, take this necklace. It's a pass you'll need to get into the building. It's just a big round chunk now but if you touch it you can mold it into whatever you want." Yuka handed Mikan a necklace that had a sliver chain on it with a big odd shaped transparent chunk at the end of it. "If you want to change the length of the chain you can change it too. Different Alices have different coloured stones."
Mikan held the transparent chunk in her hand and molded it into a cross. She lengthened the chain so that the cross would end up just at the bottom of her chest.
(A/N: She made it so long because she still wears the Sakura Choker and Natsume's Alice stone. (Yes, Mikan and Natsume have exchanged Alice stones already if you haven't noticed.))
Mikan connected her entire apartment to her new room; replacing her old bedroom with the new one she was just given. Putting all her old stuff in the drawers and all. She put her linked her iPod into the speaker, choose a random song and clicked play. She took a bath and changed into shorts and a tank top. After drying her hair, Mikan jumped into her new bed which was, to her surprise, a water bed! Mikan had always wanted one. The good thing is, how watery it was could be controlled. She hugged a random pillow and slowly drifted to dream land.
Okay, I think I'm going to add a song in the next chapter. It could be background music or something I don't know but all I know is that I want to add a song to the next chapter. Oh yes, and I made Persona a good person since someone requested it! Oh, and Persona only acts like a sadistic asshole so as to not put suspension into the ESP's mind. Okay… REVIEW PLEASEEE?
