Author comments: Booyaka! Sorry minna-san for keeping you waiting! School these days is getting rough, but my vacations are coming so I'll speed up the process! And for pictures Natalie and Nate, go to and search for Orihime00sama (very familiar right?)

P.S: These aren't Parallel H arts, these are PH arts.

Right now I'm feeling very enthusiastic! Finally at last, reviews! And if you noticed, in Chapter 7, I misspelled the word 'chizome' (bloodstained) and wrote 'chizogome' (not sure if real word).

In this chapter's title, the word 'madoushi' means 'wizard' but it can mean 'mage' as well. Also, if you never saw a meme (like 'me gusta' or 'troll') then you won't get the 'derping' part; and if you unbelievably never saw or heard about Dragon Ball Z or about Vegeta then you won't get the 'over 9000' part.

dude (guest): Thank you very much for reading the story and I really appreciate the review! Right now, I'll answer your questions!

"Had Alice forgot of Kevin? Wasn't he her childhood friend?" A: Alice didn't forgot of him, she's trying to get him back but she needs to keep an eye on Break to make sure that he doesn't get hurt or even killed; something that would affect Kevin as well, also Alice became Break's Servant, so she is forced to stay with him anyway.

As for your other questions, they will be answered in the story.

Well then, enjoy~!

CHAPTER 11 – Akatsuki No Madoushi, Nate Alucard

The Wizard Of Dawn, Nate Alucard

~current time flow…

Alice made her move to Mirajane's place, the door was opened, it was dark and she wounded her leg again; Mira heals her and goes get the notebook. Alice smiled eagerly as she took a seat.

"Ta-da! 'The Luring Shadows Within The Twilight'! This book holds the answers to all of your questions!" Mira popped from a dark room with a notebook and a big book. The book seemed very old and it had some cracks on the red leather cover.

"Damn, that book's big! And why you need a notebook?" Even with a big book, Mira still had a notebook with her; when they met, she always mentioned a notebook.

"This notebook has everything that I could decipher from the book, I think it can help." Mira had a serious face during her last phrase, and it started to worry Alice. "Decipher? …"

"Yeah, everything in this book is codified, like" Mira opens the book "- Thy heart burnt into flesh thee -" While Alice gave Mira the 'dafuq u read?' look, the latter opened the notebook "For what I got, it's supposed to mean something like … "Your heart burned in the flesh"; flesh as body and burned as within." After hearing the explanation, Alice gave the 'oh, now I get it! I guess.' look.

"Then… how much of it did you deciphered?" Alice's currently thanking God for sending someone as Mira that actually understands the book, even if it is a little of it.

However, Mirajane gave Alice a not very likeable expression, "Umn… like a third of it, the most calling phrases… I spend lots of time reading this shit yet nothing came up…" Mira 'facepalmed' as she felt her fail, as it leaves Alice distressed as well, Mira felt bad after noticing Alice's sad expression.

"W-ell! Let's not worry about this, maybe with two of us; we'll be able of deciphering more." The latter notices Mirajane's depressed expression and tries to cheer her more; little by little, it starts to work.

"Y-eah… you're right, maybe we'll find more." They smile to each other and start reading.

~And after a few minutes of reading…

"Impossible" Alice starts "I don't get anything." And yawns in a bored way "What should we do?" Mira concentrates and starts thinking, until an idea comes up. "The only way is to meet him."

"Him?" Asks the confused Alice to the determined Mira, "The author, I know him; one of the most powerful persons whom I ever met." Alice gulps as Mirajane sighs "The Wizard Of Dawn… Nate Alucard." While Mira said it with a straight tone, Alice gave her the 'who?' look.

"Oh sorry, since you're a newbie here then you mustn't know about him. Let me explain first." And Alice gave her the 'go ahead then' look.

"Due to some wars, the most powerful vampires separated themselves into four families; and one of them is the Alucard family, its head is Nate. Due to his abilities, his name is known around the world." And as she sees that Mirajane's over with the explanation, Alice finally nods.

"So, how we'll find that Superman person? Are we going to fly there or something?" Mirajane starts laughing and goes place the book to its place.

"Well, umn, I have an idea. First, we must meet your Master." Mira emphasized the master to tease Alice, and due to Alice's pissed reaction, the teasing worked perfectly. "Just shut up."

~some time after…

"As I said before, I'm going to take your lovely dolly with me for a mission! Any objections, Mr. Tightfisted?" Mirajane sharply and kindly requested Break's authorization to take his lovely dolly (Alice) with her.

"And what would the Lightning Empress want from a humble Servant?" Break replied while faking a serious tone; Mira on the other side, twitched as she noticed that Break wasn't interested in denying at all, he simply wanted to get under her nerves. "Well, that humble Servant of yours caught my eye, so I've thought of taking her with me. So, can she come with me?"

Break grinned in a childish way "I don't know, can she~?" towards Alice who was standing next to them. "I'm not a kid! Stop derping around and spit a fucking answer already!" The extremely annoyed Alice fumes in rage as her Master continues grinning. "Ah~, I really hope that your filthy mouth gets deep bleached with that mission." With a comical yet cynical tone he gives her the answer she wanted; his other dolly on his shoulder stands jumping "Filthy mouth~! Filthy mouth~!"

"Why you…!" Alice starts talking until Mirajane grabs her and starts pushing her out of the room "He already gave permission! Let's just go!" While Mira was pushing Alice, the latter's Master was watching them.

~after…

The cousins walked to a portal, and appeared at a dark and misty zone. Many crows, owls and bats were flying around.

"Where the hell are we?" Even though Alice was a newbie in the business and got scared during her first mission, she got used pretty quickly to dark places. "Good to know that you're not scared." Mirajane teased Alice who glared at her from embarrassment with a slight blush on her face. "Anyway, what's the mission?"

"Don't worry, we're here." Mira's pace changed as the air got heavy; Alice summoned a scythe and got in her battle stance.

"What the?-" Even the earth started to shake, and a gigantic beast, A.K.A a Card Soldier; emerged from the shadows. Two figures were on top of it, a petite girl with long, waist length orange hair, and a young man with shoulder length, styled orange hair; they both had dark orange eyes with black lines vertically reaching their cheeks. They resembled a couple of twins, so very like and yet different; the girl had tanned skin and the boy had light skin, not to mention their height, the girl was at least 2 heads shorter than the boy, and she wasn't short, the boy happened to be really tall.

"Long time no see, Nate and Natalie." Mirajane's voice had a friendly tone, as if she was acquainted with them. The girl, Natalie, cheerfully smiled and the boy, Nate, sharply smiled.

"Those are exactly my words, Mira-dono." Nate started, his attention then went to Alice "Who is-" "Who's the Cat-ears Lady? Is she your friend?" Natalie quickly and loudly cut Nate off, eyes sparkling with a curiosity obviously over 9000 as they ran a scan on Alice, who on the other side, was pretty embarrassed and pissed with her nickname.

"Y-yes she is, Natalie. This… uh… Cat-ears girl is my little cousin." Mira sighed, patting Alice's head. While the latter in the other side, turned her head away, blushing. "The name's Alice."

Nate sweatdropped to Alice's rudeness "Why am I having the feeling of nostalgia?... Guess the cousin part wasn't a lie…"; as Natalie squeals "Cat-ears Lady is so cute!" Alice glared at Natalie with a visible embarrassment "My name is not Cat-ears!" Mira continued patting Alice trying to calm her down, though, with no success.

"Uh, can we get going? Things are getting hot right now." Nate nodded to Mira's hurried request.

~some time later…

"Ah, so your name is Alice, Ali-nee then!" Natalie chirps as she crushes Alice into a bear-hug, as Nate and Mirajane were having tea and discussing Alice's situation. "L-let me go! I can't breathe!" Even though, Alice couldn't break free from Natalie's grasp.

Sometime later, Nate quickly stood up and went to Alice's direction, in a speed that managed to make Natalie run away to Mirajane's back; his expression showed extreme concern. "You… you know Kevin?" The nostalgic name resonated in Alice's ears as the memories/feels flashed back.

"Kevin…" As Alice spoke the name, she couldn't help but to let tears form in her eyes, at this sight, Nate's intense glare mellowed, "I-I'm sorry, I shouldn't press you like that…". Even so, Alice straights herself and wipes her tears "Y-yes, I was his childhood friend… I don't even know if he ever considered me as a friend… I discovered the truth about him, and in the bad way." The saddened stiffness of Alice's voice made Nate mellow even more.

"If that's what happened, then I must tell you the whole truth." And with that, the dead mood between them ascended from its finale and became serious.
