I don't own Gakuen Alice. Anyway, enjoy the story
Chapter 9
Mikan's POV
As soon as we got out of the class, we heard someone said "Wait". We turned around and saw a guy in his 20s with black hair and purple eyes. He was wearing a lab coat and he also had a glass. He looked so familiar….
"Who are you guys and why are you coming out from the infirmary?" He asked
"Because she fainted so I took her here but I can't find someone in the room so I just sit and wait." Hotaru said. Somehow, I felt a tension between this two.
"Oh, then I'm sorry. My name is Subaru Imai and I'm one of the doctor. The principal just called me so I'm not in the infirmary. Sorry." I suddenly saw Hotaru flinched.
Subaru Imai….Subaru Imai….Su..ba..ru..I..ma..i… Isn't that …
I suddenly remembered. I tried to ask if is it true but Hotaru shot me a shut-up-or-you-will-die look. I completely became silent.
"It's okay, Imai-san. She's okay now so you don't have to worry. Anyways, you can write her name Mikan Sakura in your note." Hotaru said nonchalantly.
"Okay. But if anything happen, come to me." He said. Then we waved and walked away. I heard him murmur something like "It can't be them, they have died…"
"Hotaru, as I expect, it's him, right?"
"Yes"
After that, me and Hotaru walked down the hall in silent and I took the schedule from my pocket looking at it. Let's see, today,
-Morning-
1st period: Homeroom – Narumi
2nd period: Math – Jinno
3rd period: Science – Misaki
4th period: Cooking – Fukutan
Lunch time
-Afternoon-
1st period: Girls- Manners-Himemiya and Boys-Fighting-Shiki
2nd period: History – Noda
3rd period: Music – Reo
4th period: PE – Rei/ Persona
Ugh, so many subjects. Sigh
We finally arrived at the classroom. When I opened the door, there was an old man who was standing in front of the classroom while holding a stick. He had brown hair and brown eyes with a frog on his shoulder.
"Who are you girls?"
"We are the new students. I'm Mikan and this is Hotaru"
" Why are you late?"
"Because I fainted during the free period of Narumi…. May I come in now?"
"Yes, you can. By the way, my name is Jinno and I'm the one who teaches math."
"Hai."
We came inside and realized that there were many people gazing at us with you-should-have-die, thank-god-you-are-okay, Mikan-sama-and-Hotaru-sama-looked-so-gorgeous and what-the-hell-happened-in-the-self-study-period stares. I just glared back at them and they turned their attention back to the board. I then realized Hotaru had gone to her seat near Nogi. So I walked to my seat and I saw that Hyuuga was sleeping soundly while he leaned on the chair, his foots on the desk and a manga cover his face. Sigh. So much for a partner.
I quietly took a chair out and sat down in order not to wake him up then turn on the board. But all the problems Mr. Jinno was teaching, I have studied them long time ago so I felt sleepy. Not too long after that, I yawned and slowly fell asleep. zzZZZ
"Mikan, be careful. I sense someone dangerous inside the school"
"…"
"….ra"
"…sa.."
"….ku…ra"
"Miss SAKURA"
I suddenly woke up by a loud and pissed voice. Who was that? Who dared to disturb my slumber?
"Miss Sakura, I have called you many time but it seems that you dare to ignore me. Do that problem on the board now." I heard Jinno said.
I stretched my arm and legs once more time then got out of my seat walking to the board.
Huh? This is the questions for college students. And that Jinno makes me to do this. He underestimates me so much. Sigh.
I wrote down the answer immediately and got back to my seat. Jinno just stood there dumbfounded. "Next time, something more difficult. This is all too easy,….Jin-Jin" Snickers could be heard in the classroom. Nice one, Mikan. Jin-Jin glared at me and I just shrugged. He opened his mouth to say something but at that moment, the bell rang. Jin-jin stomped his foot angrily out of the room.
"Oi, Polka" A masculine voice appeared beside me.
"What do you want, Hyuuga?"
"Where were you when Jin-Jin came in?"
"I fainted so Hotaru took me to the infirmary."
"What-"
"And don't try to ask me about what happened in Narumi's period. You will never know."
After that, Natsume became silent. The next 2 subjects were so boring. The science's teacher, Misaki, who had brown hair and black eyes, just showed us a small cactus that could move and it seemed to be able to find someone cheat during exam. It was kind of cute but who cares.
Then, we had cooking class with Fukutan, who had long black hair and glass-eyed. He told us to cook omelet. We finished it perfectly in 10 mins along with Hyuuga's group. Other groups, some came out nice but the other especially the fan girls were something really black and edible.
However, I always caught Hyuuga looking at me in this 2 periods. He just stared at me boringly like I was a rare species. It made me feel a chill to my spine. Sigh
-Lunch-
We sat in a table and began to eat our omelet. It was a good thing that Fukutan let us eat our creations. I still felt Hyuuga's stare.
"Hey, Mikan, Hyuuga has been staring at you for a while you know?" I heard Anna said
"Yes, I know but I don't know how to get rid of him." –Mikan-
"I have to admit, he's a hottie like all his friends" Sumire said dreamingly
All eyes turned to her with a we-don't-know-you-get-out-of-the-table-now look.
"Fine. I'll shut up now." –Sumire-
"Anyways guys, when I was sleeping in Jin-Jin's class, I heard Mikan try to warn me about a dangerous person in this school." Mikan said as she ate the omelet really fast.
"WHAT?" All the girls shouted in unison.
"Tch. Lower your voice" I said and they just sat down. "Finish your omelet and we will go out to find a place quietly and far from Hyuuga's stare to discuss about this problem."
They nodded and after a moment, we finished then headed out of the room.
Natsume's POV (Somewhere near Mikan's table)
"WHAT?" I heard the Sakura sisters shouted. I turned to their table and saw Polka look really pissed. That Polka is really suspicious. But why do I still have the feeling I have forgotten something that was so important when I see her? Tch. I thought as I glanced at Polka again and again
"Natsume, what's wrong?" –Ruka-
"Nothing" –Natsume-
"Then why do you keep looking at Sakura sisters?" –Ruka-
"…"
"I notice that you have been looking at them especially Mikan this whole class." –Ruka-
"…."
"Don't worry, Ruka. He's just a lovesick puppy." Koko said and grinned evilly at Natsume
I glared at Koko with the meaning shut-the-hell-up-before-I-make-you-into-Kokokrunch-for-my-breakfast. Koko immediately shut his mouth up.
"This is serious, Natsume. You are acting not like you at all" Then he stood there thinking for a while. After a moment, he stared at me with wide eyes "OMG. Then who are you? What have you done to Natsume? Bring him back please." Ruka said as he shook me violently.
"Ruka….Ruka….Sigh …RUKA, STOP" I shouted and he was back to himself. Everybody looked at them weirdly while fan girls giggled like crazy. Realizing the commotion he just made, he sat down feeling embarrassed.
"I told you, I'm Natsume. It's just that I'm wondering about them." I said and fixed my clothes
"Since when you start to care about something else?" Asked Tsubasa. I glared at him darkly.
"I just have a feeling like they have a hidden secret. A secret that could change the world." I said as I stared at the omelet. Then I realized the girls walked out of the class. I followed them but when I got out the classroom, they had gone.
Sh*t I cursed under my breath and got back to the table.
"Natsume-nii-chan" A child voice suddenly appeared while footsteps could be heard. Sigh. After that, a girl with raven hair and alluring crimson eyes along with a silver-haired with emerald eyes boys ran into class. The girl jumped on me. "Good morning onii-chan" She said happily while Youichi stood there nodding at me
"Aoi, what did I say about jumping on other people when they are eating?"
"…."
"Sigh. It's okay. Have you eaten anything?" –Natsume-
"I already ate my lunch at the canteen. You don't have to worry." Aoi said proudly. Yeah right
"Youichi?" –Natsume-
"What she said is true."-Youichi-
"Ne, Natsume-nii-chan, this morning we met a girl. She helped us to get away from the bad guy." Aoi said happily
"Wait, wait, wait, bad guy? You were bullied?"
"Yes, they asked money from us and then beat up Youichi."
"How come you didn't call me?"
"Because I was too scared to remember that I have a cell phone"
"How come Youichi look like nothing happen to him?" I asked as I pointed at Youichi.
"Like I said, we met a girl. She saved us and treated our wounds. I don't know how she did it but only half an hour later, all the wounds disappeared. It's like magic"
"Okay. But remember the next time you are in trouble, call me immediately" I said
"Hai." They said in unison
"Good. Now get back to your classroom for napping"
.
.
.
"Wait. What is the name of the girl that-" I asked them but when I turned around, they were no longer there. Sigh
.
.
.
"Natsume, do you think it's her?"
"Yes. I think it's her since she came to class late."
Polka, I definitely find out what secrets you are hiding even it takes me all my life.
Mikan's POV
We were walking and talking about various things. Suddenly, we reached a big forest.
"What is this place?"-Anna-
"I don't know but this is so marvelous" –Sumire-
"Over here, guys."
We heard Misaki said and ran to her place. In front of our eyes was a sign. It said 'Northern Forest-the biggest forest in the school ground, also the most dangerous place.'
"Why do people call it Northern Forest?"-Mikan-
"Because it's in the North, duh"-Hotaru-
"Why is it dangerous? It looks so peaceful"-Nonoko-
"Less talking. Come in to find out."-Hotaru-
Then we all walked into the forest. It was kind of creepy. Then in the middle of the forest, a wooden house appeared. It looked as if it has been built there years ago. We moved closer. I'm about to knock on the door, suddenly, a hand flew to my face. I stopped it in time. In front of me now, a brown teddy bear.
"What the hell?" I said as I looked at the bear weirdly. Its eyes shined and it started to punch me again while I tried to block all his attacks. In the mean time, all my sisters just stood there looking at us boringly. 5mins…..10mins….20mins….We still haven't found who was the winner. Me and the bear were both tired.
"I can't take it anymore." I heard Hotaru said. Then out of nowhere, she took a bucket of water pouring on bear. Now it was soaking wet and couldn't move anymore. It just sat there looking at the ground.
"Wow. This bear is good and cute, too. But why is it so violent?" Anna said
I came to bear's place and patted his head.
"I know you are doing this to protect yourself. People often mistake you as a monster so you were treated horribly, right? Then, would you like to be our friend?"
Bear looked at me surprised then gazed at the ground again.
"Oh, come on, Bear, let's me tell you something 'Being alone does not mean you are lonely, and being lonely does not mean you are alone'".
"Since when did Mikan become so wise?" I heard Misaki whisper to Sumire "Nobody knows"
"I hear that, girls." I said and they stood silently.
"Bear, come on, think about it. Do you want to be our friend?" I asked.
Bear looked at me again. Suddenly, a tear dropped from its eyes. I think it was because of the water. Its nodded and we hugged him in joy. "Welcome to the family, bear. Now, I'll call you Mr. Bear."
He nodded again. I turned away intend to leave but he took my skirt and pointed to his house. "You want us to come in?" He nodded. "Okay."
Then we came inside the house. Even though Mr. Bear quite small, the house was really huge. Everything were made of wood and very nice. We sat on a wooden table and a moment later, Mr. Bear came out with a stray of tea. He offered to us and we didn't have any chance to refuse. Because this house seemed to be far from the division so we started to talk.
"So you were saying there was someone really dangerous in this school?"
"Yes"
"Does that person work with them?"
"I think so"
"Who do you think it might be?"
"Maybe one of the teachers."
"But we haven't met all the teachers"
"True"
"Then how do we know who is the one?"
"That's why we must be careful. Don't let our secrets leak out. Someday, the world will know that we are the daughters of the most richest, most well-known and the most successful company in the world: Yukihira, Imai, Shouda, Harada, Umenomiya and Ogasawara. Just be careful. We still have many teachers to meet."
"Hai."
But we didn't realize that somebody was eavesdropping us outside. He smirked and took out a phone "Boss, I have found them…." Then he disappeared behind the bushes
Sorry for the late update.
