Okay, I know this sounds weird for Gakuen Alice to have a family day, but truly… here are some minor details not included in this chapter that you should know about:

-It was actually the HSP who suggested them to have a family day, not the MSP. Considering that the HSP has a kind personality, he was the one who suggested it so… yeah.

-The ESP was against this idea, but he had a plan. This plan will be said in the later chapters in the stories.

-The third years' practical exam is going to be held in the music class. Clearly when I say duet, one will be playing an instrument and the other will sing.

-You want to know what happened to Luna? Hehe, just wait, it will be mentioned in the next chapter.

Note: Anybody want their favorite Anime/J-pop song posted in here? Clearly in the next chapter. Just post a song included in your reviews and if I consider it… it will be included in the story. *the lyrics I mean* I'm gonna use the song that I picked in Fuji's practical exam.

Princess of Tennis Chapter 9: Family Day

"AOI!!" Natsume ran up to his sister to with closed fists. Mikan sighed then spoke, "And I was hoping I'd surprise you with this,"

Aoi smiled as she hugged her elder brother. Natsume smiled in the inside, releasing his sister from the hug. Aoi and Natsume turned to look at Mikan.

"What do you mean surprise me? You were hiding her all along haven't you?" Natsume questioned a frowning Mikan. She stood there, listening to Natsume's unbelievable words.

"What if I did hide her all along? Just be thankful that Aoi-chan is safe!" She pointed out while crossing her arms in front of her chest. Natsume was boiling with anger again, while Aoi just stared back and forth between the two.

"Then I'll burn you to crisp!" Natsume answered, running up to Mikan with a ball of fire in his hands. Mikan just stood there, consciously activating her nullification alice. Aoi noticed this then ran up to Mikan also, she was faster than Natsume because of her age and stood in front of Mikan, her arms stretched out, defending her. Natsume stood there, shocked that his sister was defending Mikan.

"Stop it, Nii-chan!" Aoi exclaimed frowning. Mikan just smirked then frowned more. She turned her head to Aoi and said, "Thanks, Aoi-chan! You saved me there," Mikan smiled, so did Aoi.

"Get out of the way Aoi!" Aoi ignored her brother then smiled more widely at Mikan.

"Well, you saved me didn't you, nee-chan?" Aoi looked back at her brother, disappointed. "Is this how you treat the one who saved me from the AAO?" Aoi frowned at her brother. She had to admit that she was glad to see him again but she hated it when Natsume uses that kind of attitude towards people.

"Saved you?" Natsume calmed down, the ball of fire vanishing. Mikan nodded, still calm as ever. She looked at Aoi and Natsume for a moment then smiled.

"Ryoma-kun!" Mikan ran up to him to destroy the awkwardness in the room. Mikan sighed then removed his cap, "Sleeping again, huh?" She asked while Ryoma looked up.

"What do you want?" He asked blushing suddenly. Mikan was tapping her fingers on the table, her head only 2 inches apart from Ryoma's. She was still holding his cap.

"I want to skip today! Could you please accompany me?" Mikan begged with puppy dog eyes. Ryoma just stared not affected by her eyes.

"Seriously, you're nothing like Fuji-senpai," He said ever calmly attempting to grab his cap but he failed.

"I'm not giving you back this cap until you come with me," Mikan smirked while Ryoma did the same. She stared confused at Ryoma's reaction. Shouldn't it be something like, 'Oi! Give that back!?

"Fine, have it then." He said, grabbing another cap from his tennis bag then quickly putting it on, grinning evilly. Mikan just stared, "Hey, no fair! You had an extra one!"

"Geez, you're just like a copy of Natsume but you're not perverted, unlike him." Mikan returned the cap to Ryoma as he frowned.

"No, I'm not." He argued.

"Yes, you are!" She pointed out frowning.

"No,"

"Yes,"

"No,"

"YES,"

"No,"

SLAM!

"Ohayo, minna!" Narumi interrupted by shouting so loudly as usual. Nobody dared to greet him back, well except for Mikan of course. "Ohayo, Narumi-sensei!" Everybody turned to look at her. She raised her eyebrows then put her hands to her waist.

"At least I have some respect to my elders," She sat down on her seat beside Ryoma. It became her seat for now, since she didn't like sitting Natsume. Clearly because he makes her uncomfortable.

"Well, then. I just have to make an announcement," He said smiling widely. Everybody turned to listen, except for Natsume who was now sleeping so quietly.

"Okay, we're going to have a project which would be submitted today. As you all know, today is Family Day and as a request from the MSP, he said to introduce at least one of your family members in class. This project will serve as a practical exam. The better you introduce, the better the grades you have. The exam will be held this afternoon, after lunch." He explained while twirling around and around. Mikan and the others were confused so being the brave one, she raised her hand to ask a question.

"Yes, Mikan-chan?" Narumi asked with sparkling eyes. Mikan sweat dropped then decided to let it go.

"Ano… Narumi-sensei, how would we introduce them?" She asked.

"Simple! There are three choices you have to choose from: The first one is, personally bring them to the class. The second choice would be a picture of your family member and the third choice would be the easiest. You just have to say their name and tell something about them. Concerning grades, the first choice would get the highest. Oh and for those who have relatives here in Gakuen Alice, you have no choice but to choose the first one because we already know who in this school has a relative studying here. All of those kids' relatives will be excused from their classes when its time to introduce them to the class. Get it?" Narumi drew on the board while talking. Unlucky for him, only Mikan was listening since she was the one who asked. Almost half of the students were partially asleep from the long explanation.

Mikan nodded slowly then asked again, making the other students groan in irritation. "Are we the only one who is doing this so called exam?"

Narumi wagged his head in disagreement, "The whole school will do it but it's a different style for the other sections." Mikan nodded again then sat down. Narumi grinned then skipped towards the door.

"Now, I have to go… Free period!" He declaimed, racing out of the room. They all stared at him and waited 'till he was out of sight then immediately the students began to chatter but no chaos began. Everyone was already planning on what to do this afternoon so she thought about it for a while,

'I guess I'll ask nii-chan later at lunch. He'll be excused from his class anyways. But I have a feeling that I don't have to introduce him anymore,'

Mikan rested her head in her hands for a while, looking outside at the leafless trees. She sighed then whispered, "Winter is coming soon,"

LUNCH

KKRRRRIIIINNNGG!!

Jinno's explanation was cut off as the students cheered for joy. He glared daggers at them then stormed out of the room.

"Eh? Are you coming or not?" Mikan stood up from her seat, fixing her things in her bag. She grabbed her tennis bag and slumped it on her back. She waited for Echizen to fix his things up but he didn't move a budge in his seat.

"Why do you wait for him anyway? Just leave him be, Polka." Natsume butted in. Mikan glared daggers at him be he wasn't affected at all. "PERVERT!" She shouted before Natsume left the room completely leaving the two alone.

"Hey?" Mikan poked him around the shoulders. Ryoma looked at her then stood up, grabbing his tennis bag.

"Come on!" She grabbed his hand then dragged him out of the classroom, heading to the third years' classroom.

"Hey aren't you going to the cafeteria?" Ryoma asked when he saw Mikan took the wrong turn. Mikan stopped then turned to look at him, "I'm going to nii-chan's classroom. You can go ahead if you like," Mikan offered. Ryoma just stood there hesitating to answer but when his stomach growled…

"Hehe, go ahead of me. It's fine!" She giggled then smiled angelically. Ryoma blushed as he saw her ran off.

"Ano… Let's see," Mikan mumbled while looking up, staring at the sign. She was hesitating whether it was 3-A or 3-B.

'Might as well try them both, I'll go with 3-A first.' She thought, knocking three times and waiting for someone to answer. After a few seconds, a girl opened the door.

"Hey, there! What do you--?" The girl was cut off when her eyes became all sparkly as she stared at Mikan. Mikan stared back confusion in her eyes.

"KAWAII!!" The girl exclaimed, suddenly hugging Mikan. Mikan struggled but failed because of the girls' tight grip.

"Please, let go!" Mikan managed to choke out but the girl didn't hear it out.

"Eh? What's cute, Yuki-chan?" Mikan's eyed widened upon hearing almost all the girls speak.

'This is going to be a disaster! Waahh, I don't need some commotion like this! I just came here to see if my brother is in this room!' Mikan thought closing her eyes, preparing for the hugs and comments about her.

Meanwhile…

"Ne, Fuji, What do you think the noise is all about?" Kikumaru looked up from his work then stared at the girls swooning over something. Fuji also looked up then took a glance at the girls.

"I don't know, Eiji. I've never seen the girls have that kind of reaction except if we were to talk to them," Fuji answered getting back to his work.

"Use your teleportation alice to get out of the crowd!" They heard Misaki shout to someone inside the crowd.

"It must be a person then," Inui said adjusting his glasses.

"But I wonder who it is," Kawamura rested his face in his hands for a while but they all got back from their work anyway.

"Now!" They heard Misaki shout once again but this time she could be clearly seen beside Tsubasa's desk, panting with Mikan doing the same.

"Arigato, Misaki-senpai!" Mikan dusted her uniform before returning to her kinda happy and cheerful self.

"Ah! Mikan-chan! How've you been?" Tsubasa stood up from his seat then hugged Mikan tightly.

"Baka! She just recovered from those girls! Stop hugging her you pervert!" Misaki smacked Tsubasa's head with her fist then pulled Mikan to her side.

"Ow! Misaki!"

"Eh? It's alr--…" Mikan was cut off by the sound of the girls spotting her.

"Eh? She's gone!" One of the girls shouted, "Over there!"

"Ano… I have to go! Ja!" Mikan spotted Kikumaru then ran towards him. When she got to Kikumaru, she automatically hid herself behind him, her hands holding on his shoulders.

"Eh?" Kikumaru turned around to see whose hands wereon his shoulders.

"Gomen, Kikumaru-senpai but can you hide me for a moment?" Mikan begged while whispering softly, pointing at the girls' who were looking for her.

"It seems that they haven't given up on looking for you yet," Oishi said getting Mikan's attention. Mikan turned her head, spotting Inui and Oishi behind her and Tezuka and Kawamura beside their seat.

"I guess not too," Mikan smiled at them while they all smiled back except for Tezuka who just nodded but something or rather someone was missing according to Mikan.

"Eh? Onii-chan is in a different section?" Mikan whispered, trying to avoid getting too much attention. The others just smiled then pointed at the guy beside Kikumaru.

"Oh, thanks!" Mikan grinned then crawled beside Fuji. She went into a kneeling position then laid her head on Fuji's shoulder.

"Ah, Mikan-chan. What are you doing here?" Fuji asked turning his head only a little bit to the right to avoid hitting Mikan. She smiled then stood up properly when she saw that the girls were gone. Probably they were going to have lunch already.

"I just have to ask you about something, nii-chan." She grinned then explained everything including the details and the consequences.

"Ah, you have a practical exam like that too?" Fuji said, smiling as usual. Mikan nodded in agreement as she smiled. She always feels so happy when she's around with the regulars.

"Yup! That's why I want you to come with me in homeroom later after lunch. Though I don't really know why there is another period of homeroom today, we had one session earlier this morning." She chirped, "You have one too?"

Fuji smiled then nodded, "But it's a different type, or so you call it."

"How?" Mikan asked, imagining some random things about it.

"We have to express our love in our family by singing. And we have to choose our own songs too," He explained frowning a bit. He never really did like the idea of singing after all.

"So you have to sing?" She corrected while sweat dropping with a weird look on her face, "Eh? Sounds interesting…" She smirked.

"What's with the weird look and the smirk?" Fuji shrugged then finally figured out what her smirk and weird face was all about. "Are you telling me that I can't sing?"

"Nope, not at all bro,"

"Really?"

"Hey! I listened to your singing when it was Yumiko-nee's birthday last year!" Mikan pouted then crossed her arms. Fuji chuckled a bit then smirked also, his blue eyes showing.

"However, didn't I say earlier that 'we have to express our love in our family by singing'? I didn't say that I have to do it myself," He smirked more as he saw Mikan's eyes widen.

"What? So I have to sing too? We have to do a duet?!" Mikan stared at her still-smirking brother wide eyed.

"You can say that, though you don't expect me to sing do you?" He grinned when he saw Mikan sigh.

"Fine, but don't blame me if this goes all messed up. Anyways, I'm going to have lunch now bro, you coming?" Mikan shrugged the family thing off. The only thing she doesn't get is that since when did the academy care about the students families?

Fuji nodded in agreement when they all stood up. All of her senpai's and Fuji to be exact though Kikumaru and the others were speaking about something different instead of their practical exam this afternoon - they didn't leave Fuji and Mikan behind.

Mikan positioned herself between Oishi and Fuji, holding Fuji's left arm in her hand. Walking along the corridors while heading towards the cafeteria, they saw Momo and Kaidoh arguing in the hallway, quickly inviting them for lunch.

"Oh, I forgot! Ne Oishi-senpai, when will you have the practical exam?" Mikan tugged his shirt gently until he looked down then smiled, "It's actually in the period after yours is held, Mikan-chan." He replied looking straight ahead to the cafeteria.

"Eh? Where's Echizen?" Momo suddenly asked, making the others worry too. He was their 'super rookie' anyway.

Mikan laughed when she remembered what happened earlier, getting the attention of the Seigaku regulars. "Oh, that! Well, I was with him earlier – when I was on the way to your classroom but it seems that he couldn't wait for food any longer, so I asked him to go ahead of me." Mikan replied giggling sweetly making all of the regulars join in except for Tezuka who just smiled a little.

Meanwhile…

LUNA'S POV

"NATSUME-SAMA!!" I heard Sumire squeal beside me, grabbing Natsume-sama's arm. Oh no she didn't! Natsume-sama is mine!

"Get off, Sumire! Natsume-sama is mine! I thought you were into Ruka-sama?!" I complained quickly pushing Sumire's arm off of Natsume-sama and pulling him towards me.

"You get off you whore!" Natsume-sama stood up annoyed, along with Ruka-sama who just stared at me.

"Look at what you've done, Sumire! This is all your fault!" I shouted at her, half-angry and half-playfully. Then I sighed, looking around the cafeteria looking for that girl who humiliated me in front of the whole school during that match until I saw Ryoma-sama sitting in a table alone, eating…

"Hey, Sumire! Come on! We're going for Ryoma-sama this time!" I whispered, picking up my tray then walked towards Ryoma Echizen, the so called 'super rookie' in Seigaku.

"Act nice and simple," I whispered again to Sumire as she nodded. If this plan works, I might have Ryoma-sama all to myself.

"Ano… Ryoma-kun… May the two of us sit beside you?" I asked, dropping off the '-sama' in his name. I smiled sweetly then nudged Sumire to do the same. Must I always be the one reminding her?

In reply, he just stared then said, "Do whatever you want,"

I smiled, somewhat kind off pissed – but who cares? I'm with a tennis prodigy here, people! Sitting down, I heard laughter coming from people outside the cafeteria. Alright! This must be my lucky day! Seigaku regulars are probably going to sit in the same table as Ryoma-sama so I have a chance to get close to them! Heh, this is going to be fun.

"Eh? But nii-chan, you promised me you'll treat me today!" Damn that girl! Pretending that she's Syusuke-sama's little sister to get popularity!

I heard them all laugh, even Tezuka-sama smiled! I can't believe it all -- she gained this popularity because of me! If it wasn't for that match against me, this would've happened to her. Stupid girl, making rumors that she's Syusuke-sama's imouto. I don't believe her at any costs! I wonder why Syusuke-sama hasn't done anything, could it be that the rumor didn't reach him? Heh, this is going to get interesting later when I expose it to him.

"What's wrong with her?" I heard Ryoma-sama ask. I looked at him eyes wide. Did he just ask about my condition?

"Oi, Luna-san... What's wrong?" How dare Sumire ignore Ryoma-sama's caring question for me! This girl is so ill mannered!

"Ryoma-kun, are you going to eat with us?" I looked up, my eyes narrowing. It was 'her' again with the Seigaku regulars behind her. What does she want with Ryoma-sama anyway?

I didn't notice, when I was in deep thought about 'her' Ryoma-sama swiftly stood up, grabbed his tray with only his left hand then left with only one word, "Ja,"

'Perfect timing, you damn girl! It's time for the show,'

Bowing my head down, I grabbed Ryoma-sama's right arm. "Nani?" I heard him ask. Smirking evilly on the inside, I spoke…

"Nothing, but… Mikan can you face me for a moment?" And that caught everybody's attention. Mikan turned to face me, smiling – But that smile will be replaced by tears.

"Yes, Luna?" She smiled more.

"Do you know about the rumor?"

"What rumor?"

"Oh so you don't know? There are some rumors that you've been pretending as a sister of a member of Seigaku to gain popularity. Answer this, Are you using them or not?" I shot at her, pretending to be serious. Her eyes widened a bit then she looked down, her bangs covering her eyes and half of her face.

"…" No reply came from her. So, my plan worked after all, huh?

"Silence means yes, Mikan. You are using them aren't you?"

"Oh, that rumor! Yeah, I've heard of it. We just want to make sure Mikan," Sumire finally backed up! That ought to be the first thing I didn't tell her to do.

"Please, don't create lies. I don't care what you think, just don't create lies about 'them'," Mikan commanded. She was shaking a bit. What's wrong with her? Is that her 'weak spot' or something?

Weak spot, huh? I hope I figured it out. Heh, what a drag.

"I didn't tell you to answer differently, just say 'yes' or 'no'. Can't you understand what I'm saying at all?" Why can't this girl just say 'yes'?

I glared at her evilly while frowning. Just then, Syusuke-sama leaned over to whisper something on Mikan's ear. Oh what now?

Mikan shook her head, somewhat in disagreement, I think? I hope this plan will be successful. It's the only way to get my popularity back.

MIKAN'S POV

Again, Luna has been attacking my weak spot. It's my only weak spot and now she's using some excuse to gain popularity.

My body was shaking and my fists were closed, my nails making bruises on my palm. This happens almost once a week – Luna's bullying. It's her fault that her popularity rate had gone down right? It's not my fault right?

'Calm down, Mikan. Calm down,' I tried to calm myself down and succeeded when I felt nii-chan's hand on my shoulder. He leaned closer to whisper something to me,

"Is it true? That you're only pretending to be my sister?" He whispered softly into my ear. As a reply, I just shook my head in disagreement then he smiled then grabbed my free hand.

"Huh? Where are we going?" My brother pulled my hand, slowly nodding to Ryoma-kun to take care of Luna. He nodded at buchou too to excuse ourselves. It seems like he's hiding something from me, and since when did nii-chan and Ryoma-kun have signals like that? I guess it's better to read his mind…

'……one more chance,' Nii-chan thought, he was now smiling like nothing happened. What does he mean by 'one more chance' anyway?

"I understand; I'll tell sensei about it later, see you later Fuji." Tezuka-buchou said in a calm and serious manner. Weird, Nii-chan will be skipping the first period after lunch just to tell me something? I shrugged, the fact that we skipped lunch.

時間はスキップ...

"What are we doing in front of…" I looked up to read the sign above the door then continued what I was saying, "…the HSP's office?" I looked at my brother who just smiled at me then knocked on the door.

We were greeted by a decent kind of old man that had a huge smile on his face. I smiled at him then bowed politely introducing myself, "Hajimemashite, Fuji Mikan desu. Douzo yoroshiku," I stood up properly then looked at the HSP, smiling. I just hope that he is one of us who opposes the ESP.

"Ahhh, Konnichiwa Mikan-chan, Syu-chan! How's my niece and nephew doing?" The HSP stood up, a somewhat happy and cheerful smile on his face. Huh? Who's he calling niece and nephew? And Syu-chan?

"Mikan-chan, meet Kazu Yukihara, Otou-san's brother." Nii-chan explained the situation then went beside the HSP.

Wait! Otou-san's brother? So that means…. "Uncle Kazu?" My eyes widened then I ran up to hug him.

"I'm glad you noticed Mikan-chan," Uncle turned to look at Nii-chan then smiled.

"I heard that you two just returned from a mission last night… Are you two okay?" Brother frowned then nodded solemnly. I suppose, Uncle Kazu is just worried about us. Though, this is the first time I ever saw him. I only heard his name when there were reunions and still, and whenever I ask where is he, Okaa-san keeps telling me that he can't go to family reunions or such things.

I looked up at uncle then spoke seriously, "Don't worry! We'll be fine, right nii-chan?" I switched my gaze to my brother. He was standing there, somehow in deep thought.

"Ano… Nii-chan?" I waved my hand in front of his face after a few seconds he blinked then looked at me.

"Gomen, Mikan-chan. I was thinking of the song that we will sing later. Any Ideas?" Bro, replied to me. In fact, speaking of their practical exam… what about mine?

Five words… Five words immediately entered my mind after I glanced at my wrist watch.

We're going to be late.

"Ahahahaha, Okay. Now, enough with the talking and we have to start moving before I arrive late to class. And that would be B-A-D! Sorry, uncle but we have to rush! Me and Syusuke-nii have to go attend a practical exam. Ja!" I grabbed brothers' hand, waved to Uncle Kazu then dragged my brother to my classroom. Oh wait, I forgot, I shouldn't have just used my teleportation alice! Silly me!

Running through the hallways, I tightened my grip on nii-chan's hand then teleported ourselves in front of my classroom. It was silent… very silent.

"Ahh, I just noticed. It's the first time you called me 'Syusuke-nii'." My eyes widened. Oh I think that one just slipped right out of my mouth. What can I say? It's not on purpose right? I mean, I call Onee-chan 'Yumiko-nee' often so there is no problem right?

"Ah, that. Well I just think it fits. I call big sis, 'Yumiko-nee' so why not you too?" I grinned then prepared to open the door.

"I get your point though. Now, please open the door slowly. I don't want fan girls to go ambush me again." Onii-chan… Oh, scratch that! I mean, Syusuke-nii chuckled then I slowly opened the door, people no where in sight. "Ahh, Mikan-nee! You also have a brother?" Aoi said behind me, Natsume beside her staring at us, coldly.

Syuske-nii and I turned to face the two siblings behind us then smiled. I nodded smoothly then kneeled in front of Aoi.

"He's my partner when I rescued you. Meet my brother, Fuji Syusuke," Standing up, I saw Syusuke-nii smile gently at Aoi.

"Nice to meet you, I've been waiting to meet you Aoi," They shook hands, both smiling at each other.

Aoi giggled a bit then thanked brother, "Thank you very much! I don't know what I would do without you two!"

"No problem," Syusuke-nii smiled once again then turned to face me. "No fan girls this time?"

I frowned at the names he mentioned, "I think not, but be ready later when it's my time to introduce you. I think I might have to put a barrier to keep those screams and girls' out."

I sighed, walking towards my original seat beside Natsume, Syusuke-nii following closely behind. Sitting down, Natsume turned to look at me.

"Oi, Polka! Isn't that your seat?" Natsume pointed at one of the vacant chairs behind me, smirking with an unknown reason.

"Would you stop being a pervert?! And F-Y-I, this is my original seat. I only seated beside Ryoma-kun because I don't want to seat beside you. And come to think of it, where would my brother sit if I sit there?" I pointed out, my arms crossed.

"And why don't you want to seat beside me?" Honestly, I don't really know why I said that. I really don't care if he calls me that stupid perverted nickname of his. The word 'pervert' always slips out of my mouth when I hear him say it.

"Eh… Uhm… Erm… I get annoyed just by sitting beside you? Uh, yeah! That's right! I get annoyed just by sitting beside you!" I grinned then sighed in relief even though he didn't believe it.

"Whatever," He said, sitting down but failed to do so. Why? Simple! I pushed him out of the way before he could sit down thanks to my speed alice.

"What are you trying to do, you idiot?!" Natsume shouted at me. He actually didn't know why I pushed him out of his seat?

"Oh, shut up! You're the idiot here you know? Be a gentleman for goodness sake!" I pointed at his little sister who was staring back and forth between the two of us.

"Oh so that what this is all about!" Aoi said, smiling widely then immediately sat down on Natsume's seat. She giggled then looked up to Natsume, "Thanks, Natsume-nii!"

"And where am I supposed to sit?" Natsume pointed back. I thought about it for a while then flicked my fingers, another wooden chair appearing in front of him. He groaned then sat down. One more thing… I didn't notice that they were many eyes watching us? I thought this room was empty? Or is my watch just advance or something? No time to worry about that though.

"Ah!" My head snapped up then I turned to look at Hotaru, waving with Subaru-nii in front of her, obviously, the two were having a glaring contest against each other. "Hotaru! Subaru-nii!" I shouted across to them, quickly breaking their contest. I guess Hotaru dragged her brother all the way here. They haven't changed since childhood at all.

"Yo! Syusuke! Mikan!" I smiled at the sound of Subaru-nii's voice. To me, Hotaru and Subaru-nii are family already. The fact that we aren't related at all, Subaru-nii, in my point of view was the oldest among us all. He served as Syusuke-nii's best friend and my other older brother. How did we meet? Well, the truth to be told, he was Hotaru's companion when they visit me at home.

Syusuke-nii and Subaru-nii high fived, their laughter filling the room. Hotaru stood in front of my desk, emotionless as always. Smiling, I tried to get her attention.

"So, you dragged him all the way in here?" I smiled looking up at her cold face. She looked back at me, staring into my eyes, somewhat annoyed.

"Obviously…" She replied, taking a glance at her brother, a little amount of black aura emitted from her body. "He obviously wanted me to fail so he objected, but thanks to you, knowing that you will bring your brother here, I somehow convinced him to come with me."

I nodded swiftly, stretching my arms out the same time…

"Eek!" I jumped out of my seat when I felt someone's breath on my neck. Turning to look at the one who did that, I had two suspects of course.

Glaring daggers at Ryoma-kun and that perverted Natsume, I met with their eyes. "Who did that?"

"Who did what?" Anna and Nonoko asked in unison. The two of them were beside me - Yuu, Koko and Ruka behind them.

"Breathe on my neck," I answered, looking back at the two boys who just stared.

Ryoma-kun was the one who did the first move, "I did nothing,"

He was right though, reading his mind, it shows that it was the truth. So I turned to glare at Natsume.

"I just wanted to know how you smell," A smirk grew on his face as anger boiled up inside of me, "And you smelled like strawberries," The smirk grew bigger and bigger by the second. Oh no he didn't!

"YOU ARE DEAD! YOU STUPID, IDIOTIC, GAYISH AND PERVERTED JERK!" Did I just call him….?? Never mind, I could defend myself anyway. Activating N-A to full power, prepare for incoming fireballs and the S-A just in case he explodes and ends up burning the whole school. Could that actually happen? Oh well…

Oh that's the close for this chapter :D Hmmm… seems that I didn't update earlier huh? Sorry I had vacation for almost two weeks xD Man, what a bummer! Anyway… hmmm I think I have this story planned out. This will extend until Chapter 28 – 30 I think? Depend if I have anymore ideas :D Oh anyone wondering what N-A and S-A means? N-A = Nullification Alice while S-A means Sleeping Alice. Note: S-A is not Special A. You know? The anime? xD LOL… Okay now, I guess I should go! Ja!
