Chapter 10

After class, Rose introduced them to a few of her friends.

The first one they met was Celestia, who had been sitting in the courtyard admiring the flowers. Celestia had the gambling Alice. Before she came to the school, Celestia actually used her alice to make money, but had to stop when the Academy got her. She occasionally went out, but it wasn't often due to her fame. Mikan was a little nervous around her, due to her poker face.

"I should also mention," Celestia told them once. "I am also a very gifted liar." She had smiled after this, unsettling Mikan even more. Nobara was a little interested.

"Really?" She had asked. "How gifted?"

"Very gifted." Celestia replied. "It's as easy as breathing for me. I could tell a lie right now and you would never know."

"Okay!" Rose cut in. "We have to go now. Come on Mikan, Nobara."

"Okay. Bye, Celestia!" Mikan said.

"Call me Celes." Celestia waved.

"What did you think of her?" Rose asked as they walked.

"I never knew there was a gambling alice." Mikan said. "I was surprised."

"So was I when I met her." Rose said.

"That reminds me," Nobara said. "How are you friends with her? You two are really different."

"When she first came here, nobody believed she had an alice, because the gambling alice has no noticable traits besides a good poker face." Rose explained. "So everyday, she would be surrounded by people and forced to gamble with them. She did win, but can you imagine what it was like?"

Mikan nodded. "I do."

"Yeah, so I got them to leave her alone." Rose said.

"How?"

"I have a dangerous type Alice. People know that, so they don't try to get on my bad side."

"What is it?" Nobara looked at the pink haired girl.

"Uh...Hey look!" One of my friends is over there." Rose changed the topic. "Come on."

Sorry this ended suddenly. I was going to add more, but it wasn't good after this. Yes, Celestia is based off of Celes from Dangan Ronpa, including her talent. The talent was cool, and I couldn't think of another name that would suit a gambling Alice.
