Okies, when I went on MSN today I found my email inbox had 34 messages in it and I almost fell off my chair! Hey, Kaya-chan90, thanks for wonderful reviews! Oh, and here it is, the next chapter! Yes, Khiara and Bambi are the same person, but no one knows and Shiro may get confused about who he likes more through it all.

Well, this chapter may be mainly based off of dearest Khiara, mainly her in this, some NatsumeXmikan, I hope! Lol. Well, please, RR, you can read, you don't have to review, although, it will be much appreciated.

Blue -Niagra: I do not own Gakuen Alice or the merchandise, wish I did.

Mikan: Every girl can dream!

Blue -Niagra: Yes, and, I own Shiro, Khiara and Bambi. Please, enjoy this fic I made. Stories made by fans for fans.

Chapter Eleven: Nightmares...

A little pink haired girl sat in a small tent that she had make-shifted from twigs and cloth she had found in the woods. It wasn't comfertable, she had to admit, but it would do. Her whole clan was asleep, but she stayed awake. She had been having nightmares.

Ever since she had met Shiro, she had realised he was a boy whom she would deeply care for, but if she became too close to the said child, she would kill him, and she would be heartbroken. That was why she went as Bambi to his world, she wanted to make sure he was happy with another little girl who had a similar alice to the one she had abandoned, but could never forget.

Possessing and poison were almost alike, you could poison a person, and they would die, you could possess a person, and still they could die if you were'nt able to control it. Khiara had learned to control it, but it was in her blood to kill her closest loved ones with that strong, dangerous alice of hers. She regreted ever being born, sometimes.

The child had forgotten her parents, she had known from when she was 4 years old they disliked her, they had died, hundreds of years ago, after she left for the academy, and she was left alone. Even in the old days, everyone treated her poorly.

But now, she had Shiro-kun, and he treated her nicely, and it shocked her. But what she wanted to do most of all, was to make him love Bambi and forget about Khiara, if he did that, then she wouldn't need to kill him with the poison alice, because as Bambi, she didn't have it any longer. She was just a child with a less dangerous alice, but still, it was harmful towards the boy she liked.

Khiara had nightmares, she dreamed of hurting the boy she liked and seeing him die. She had seen many people like that before, but, seeing Shiro-kun scared her more and more. She wanted to scream and cry, but she was too brave to cry or scream. Khiara wasn't a baby anymore.

She would just drive him away towards Bambi, and be mean to him as Khiara-chan. She really didn't want him to die, or be unhappy.

So, she wanted him to be with Bambi and not herself, although she was actually Bambi, but she had been Khiara for a hundred years. She had stayed 5 years old that long. It seemed so, so long since she had stepped foot into that academy...

"Everyone, this is our new class member, Bambi Hikarari, she is 5 years old, gemini and weilds the Alice to poison people. Be kind to her, her parents recently abandoned her." said Domo sensai as everyone stared at her, coldly. Bambi stared at them all and sighed...

"Stupid girl! No one likes you! Everyone hates you!" yelled a boy who was older than her, and he tripped her and she fell in the mud, her hair getting wrecked and her cheeks burned red as she tried not to cry. Everyone around her laughed and she stood up, tears burning her pink eyes.

"Stop it! Stop it! This isn't fair!" she cried, and someone started to mimik her cruelly as she sobbed and ran off, but someone, a boy with the fire alice, burnt her hair and she screamed as others laughed and she screamed, trying to put it out as she yelled for help, but no one cared, not even the teachers. It was because of her alice...

Other times, the boy with fire burned her skin because he didn't like her freckles, and then he made sure he destroyed her. He made her hair burn until it was short as she cried. Bambi screamed, and suddenly, people around her screamed in pain as poison emitted their blood, and killed them. Bambi screamed, and ran off towards some woods...

Bambi found herself in a different time and stayed there, she stayed and started a small clan, then, she died as Bambi, but she took over another girls body and became Khiara, who was the Forest Guardian...

"AARGH!" yelled the little girl as she woke up, sweating, her eyes wide as she gasped, a hand over her rapidly beating heart as she looked around the tent and sighed, then started to slowly cry silently as she thought about her past life.

So many people had been cruel to her, and in return she killed them. But Shiro-kun was a person she didn't want to hurt at all...

Shiro-kun trudged through the muddy grounds. It was a gloomy day, but that didn't faze him. He was smiles, and looking for his friend, Bambi, whom he hadn't seen for a few days. The teachers had told him she went to hospital regualarly because she was ill, so he waited.

Then, a girl came up to him and smiled, and she put her hand in Shiro-kun's as he beamed and hugged her tightly, he had missed his friend!

"Bambi-chan! Are you okay now? Did the doctors treat you right? Do you wanna eat lunch with me, mommy and Natsume senpai?" asked the chirpy boy as Bambi giggled and smiled, nodding at her friend. Khiara and Bambi were two very different people. Bambi was shy and happy, Khiara was sometimes mean, but secluded like the woods she lived in.

"I'm okay, Shiro-kun! They treated me okay and I would like to meet your Natsume sempai and Mikan-chan today, please. That's very nice of you to offer." she said, Shiro took in that she was formal in speaking, and she smiled as they walked towards the lunch cantene, and suddenly screams emitted around the halls from his fan girls and Mikan's girly friends who thought he was adorable and sweet.

But the little girls his age soon grew angry because he was holding Bambi's hand and he liked her more than them. He wasn't at all like Natsume-kun when it came to women, he cared for Bambi-chan lots, and would hold her hand in public.

When they reached the table that Mikan, Natsume, Anna, Koko, Nonoko, Yuu, Youichi and Hotaru were sat at, Shiro-chan sat beside Khiara who sat next to Nonoko, who suddenly took interest in the tiny little girl that Shiro-chan was so fond of. Mikan was beside Natsume-kun and feeding him as she giggled and he flushed red with embaressment, then tackled her with kisses as she laughed and squealed.

Shiro rolled his eyes and grinned towards Bambi, who smiled quietly and watched Mikan and Natsume. She wondered if Mikan's alice of nullification could cancel out her poison alice if it ever came back?

"Hey, Bambi-chan? Do you want to share my dinner. I have too much." Shiro said, blushing as he handed some of his food to Bambi who blinked and then smiled, picking up chop sticks. Mikan and Natsume knew he was lying, because Shiro-chan never had too much. He was like Mikan, he loved his food. Especially the gormet food that the boy recieved.

"Arigatou, Shiro-kun! Gee, you're sooo sweet! You're the bestest friend ever!" she squealed as girls from other tables from both Shiro's and Bambi's class grumbled, wishing Shiro shared his dinner with them. They were terribly jealous.

"Natsume-kun, don't eat mommy's face off." giggled Shiro, being cheeky as Mikan and Natsume made out in front of everyone who could see. Natsume stopped what he was doing and grinned towards his son, and poked him in the ribs.

"Cheeky wotsit... One day, you'll be doing this, kid, and having children of your own." Natsume grinned as Mikan giggled and looped her arms around Natsume's neck as he hugged her and kissed her temple. Shiro grinned.

"Stop eating each other!" he said and everyone laughed as Bambi giggled and then stared at Shiro-kun she wondered what it would be like to kiss him... She shook her head, and resisted. She wished for him to forget Khiara, but she didn't want to push the child. Shiro seemed to be happy as friends, for the time being.

"Shiro-kun, finished! I'll be going now, I am so tired from the hospital. Bye bye!" said the little girl, waving to everyone as they waved and so did Shiro. He didn't follow her, he thought she was safe, and she was, but he didn't know she was venturing into the woods where she changed into Khiara.

But Khiara didn't know he had plans to see her again later that day...

"Mommy, daddy, can I go now? I wanna go play." Shiro said as his parents nodded, and the child went to run off to find Khiara. No one was outside because it was muddy and rainy. He didn't care. He knew in the world Khiara lived in, it would be sunny.

Winter was fast approaching, and that meant snow. Shiro of course, loved the snow. He normally made crystals when no one was looking. He only let special people see him make crystals. Mikan had seen once, and never again, and then Khiara had seen. Shiro wasn't ready to show Bambi, he wanted to have Khiara as his best friend, he loved her. He felt that, already in his early stages of life.

He walked fast towards the entrance to the woods, and soon found himself in a warm, enclosed space of the woods, and the girl he desired back flipped and stared at him, then curled her pale, scratched hands into fists.

"Wha---Why are you here, again? Hyuuga, I have no time to play!" she snapped, and went to walk away, but Shiro stopped her and pulled her back as she grumbled in protest.

"Khiara-chan! I want to say hello to you! How are you? Guess what, I made a new friend! Her name is Bambi!" he cried happily as Khiara rolled her eyes. She already knew, because she was Bambi.

"So? At least now you can stop bugging me. You get annoying after a short while, Hyuuga." mumbled the pink rose head girl as Shiro beamed and hugged her, he never let go of the rose headed girl as she struggled to push him away. Attempts were futile.

"Khiara! I will never leave you! You're my best friend! And, I gave you those crystals, remember?" he said, smiling as she glared at him and pushed him away.

"I threw them in a river." she lied,

"Oh... Well, no worries!" he said cheerily as she rolled her eyes, and jumped into a tree, and then another to get away from the child who admired her. She loved him, too, but she didn't know that, yet. She loved him as both Bambi and Khiara, and it was harder to grasp if she had 2 personalities.

"Oh, just go away! If my clan comes, then you will be toast, kiddo! Now disappear!" she hissed, and teleported away. Shiro was puzzled. If she didn't like him, then why was he still alive? Khiara had teleported to another tree and sat behind it, watching Shiro-kun as he walked away, confused.

Khiara sighed and shook her head, then came into the clearing. Ever since the day she met him, she knew he would take her away from the darkness and give her happiness. Why did she know that? Well, it was... Instinct?...
