Disclaimer: I do not own Gakuen Alice.
Flashback:
Mikan took a glimpse at the window to see a full moon surrounded by stars. She strolled into her bathroom, to check her face. When she checked in the mirror, she looked terrible. Her eyes were red and puffy, her nose was red with her sniffling. She might even scare her fan club with her face. Mikan turned of the water faucet, and washed her face with icy water which brought relief to her exhausted face. She grabbed a towel and gently dried her face. She looked up, she looked about the same now, her smile was the only thing missing.
She frowned, and left with the bathroom. She turned off the lights and a dim yellow light remained on the nightstand by her bed. She went over to her bed and slid into her bed with her silky, cherry blanket covering her. As she reached over to the little lamp, and switched it off. She gazed sadly at the ceiling, then turned at her side to go to bed.
Unknown to her, her translucent window shown a shadow standing outside of her room before vanishing. There's was another thing about the silhouette she had missed. It was an outline of a boy.
End of Flashback
Disappeared Chapter 12
The morning was just… perfect. The birds were chirping, the temperature wasn't too hot nor too cold. It seemed almost like the perfect day. However, no matter how wonderful the day seemed. In someone's eyes, it was just another day that was going to be three things. Unbearable, annoying, and especially irritating. By now we all know who this could be. Right?
In a large bedroom which was very neat, the bed had a velvet-like blanket covering a lump that seemed to be breathing. The sunlight by now had reached it's way into the room using the window, and began to shine upon the person's face. The mass groaned in annoyance as the sunlight continued to beam on the its' face. Until no longer could it ignore it, so it shove it's incredibly soft blanket off itself.
The person sat up, clearly upset that his long-needed sleep was interrupted by the sun. Another thing was, he had a HORRENDOUS time trying to get sleep last night thanks to his small stroll outside the other night. He just HAD to accidentally saunter by her room, while thinking about her, and peek into her room. What a mistake that was. Thanks to the cute look she had as she was sleeping, the boy couldn't sleep as his thoughts contradicted each others' comments throughout the nighttime. By the time he could rest in peace as his thoughts became quiet, the sun just had to shine on his face.
He went into his bathroom and took a quick bath and thought maybe he should get to the classroom early to take a nap before class. And maybe during class too, or even after class. But he knew his class, he couldn't possibly leave him be, especially not after how they saw him treat Mikan.
'Stupid Polka-dots, it's her fault for being so selfish, and so… unlike herself.' Natsume sighed as he messed up his raven hair. He had already on his uniform so he left to the hopefully, silent classroom. He quietly was traveling through the empty hallways, with his thoughts starting another uproar, which was giving him a massive headache. But all of that went away as the picture of Mikan calmly sleeping appeared in his head. He shook his head to get rid of the image. 'Sure, she was kind of like a friend to me. But why does images of Polka-dots keep popping up? My brain trying to remind me how she was forgetting her friends?' Natsume thought.
Sure, Natsume let's go that reason, for now at least.
Natsume finally reached the classroom, he opened the door. And had felt a little bit relieved to find the classroom. He went over to his desk sat on the cold chair, as he reached into his desk to grab his favorite manga as he covered his face with it, and began to rest again.
All was silent in the classroom, with the room brightly lit. As a hand appeared at one of the desks. It pulled itself to its feet as it sighed, putting their hand over their quickly beating heart. Their brown hair was once more freely loose, looking silky. They sighed when they remembered, they could've use the invisibility alice!
Mikan slapped her forehead, thinking how could she could forget. When she realized that she wasn't alone, she quickly turned to Natsume who luckily was still sleeping with his breathe remaining steady. She sighed, she couldn't think clearly when she used her super-hearing alice, where she heard someone's footsteps. She just had that gut feeling to duck under someone's desk. Luckily her feeling was right.
Mikan woke up early because she just couldn't get back to sleep after she woke up. So she just got ready for class, planning on greeting everyone. She was thinking now however, that maybe she should leave Natsume to his peace. She turned to leave for the door.
Thud
Mikan looked back at Natsume, his manga wasn't on his face anymore. Mikan didn't like the face he had on right now. His face had a angry, and upset expression on his face. Mikan sighed. "Why can't Natsume be just as expressive with his emotions like he is in his dreams…..?" Mikan whispered to herself. She wanted to comfort him, when she just recollected that she had the alice to look into people's dreams as well. 'Worth a try. At least I can see what's bothering Natsume in his dreams.' Mikan thought. Mikan yawned, and her eyes began to flutter closed.
Thud
Mikan collapse to the floor, it's seemed serious as if it was critical by the way she fell to the floor. But she was plainly sleeping, for that's the only way for a person to sneak a peek at people's dreams. However, it might have outdo the outcome of her position if she only had sat at a desk before activating her alice. Forgetful Mikan.
Natsume was running around in streets in casual clothes, seeming to be following someone. Hm… Looks like a flashback, the streets in here were from America. Plus he seems to be pretty determined, on whatever he's doing. But…. The streets here don't seem familiar to me… Where is he? Mikan stared in confusion as he continued running through the crowd when he stopped at this building. He walked in as if he had any business to be there, well, he did have business with his mission. He walked through various hallways, until he noticed a opened door revealing a conference currently being held.
He silently walked into the room, he saw the room was only filled with kids with this boy around his age who seemed to be planning a upcoming party. He scanned impatiently around the room, when he smirked. There was a browned-haired girl with her hair up in pigtails. Mikan widened her eyes saying, "I never went to event like this I would be constantly with Alyssa, Annika, Chris, Izzy, and Hikaru." Then a image of them appeared, and Mikan pouted.
The conference went on for another hour, after that people began to leave the room. With the room almost empty, the brunette was surrounded by others. Natsume sat in his chair, bored waiting for Mikan's companions to leave her. He hoped she would notice him soon, since he was beginning to hear girls whispering, taking a glance at him every second or so.
He looked at the girl talking with the others. He was kind of glad to find her safe and sound. She of course would be Mikan, same voice, same face, almost same EVERYTHING. However, there was something odd about her. He didn't want to think too much on this so he just glance at his watch. April 17, it read above the time.
Mikan narrowed her eyes at the date, as she knew her brain was trying to get her to recall a memory. Then that's when she realized what she was doing that whole day, it was actually the day she met Izzy for the first time. She remembered she glanced at the calendar which read, April 17 as well. However she did remember there was this scandal going around about her going to these various events when she had never heard of them. However Alyssa had told her she'll fix the problem, so they usually would dissolve as soon as Alyssa had told everyone that Mikan was with her the whole time. She never knew Natsume was one of them to witness this. But she could understand why they thought she was actually there, with this person. It could've been her twin! But that's impossible, or her sister would've been here right now with her. Mikan then began thinking ridiculous reasons the person could act and look SO much like her.
The girl looked up at Natsume, who smirked knowing Mikan who start yelling why he was there and such. However, he got the exact opposite of Mikan's personality. "Stop, staring at me. Creep!" Natsume rose his eyebrow as Mikan had the snobbish look on her face. Maybe Mikan is playing around?
A bit later she was leaving as Natsume caught her wrist as she was heading towards the parking lot. "What?" she asked in an annoyed way. Natsume found it strange. "I'm here to take you back to Gakuen Alice." Natsume bluntly said. Even though he was beginning to feel curious as to why Mikan was acting like this.
"Gakuen Alice? No. No. NO! I never want to see those losers back there! I have better friends here!" Mikan laughed. Natsume could feel his fury growing, but he knew he just had to bring her back no matter what. "What about Imai? She's the main reason you even came into our lives." Natsume reasoned. "I don't really care for anyone there. Now leave me alone!" She tugged more roughly on her arm to release herself from Natsume's grip. So she continued, "Why do you care so much? I don't care about you either!" Natsume's eye for second, widen with his grip on her loosen, as she pulled her arm away. Then she left him, alone in the lobby as if he was dust.
Mikan instantly knew any idea of that person relating to her flew out of the window. As well the idea of it being like her number 1 fan. She also knew no one hates her, so… who else is there? Mikan then left the motive alone, then started thinking how the person could exactly copy her but her personality. However, she began to drift from the subject and into the topic of alices. She began thinking about how hard it was learning the alices, especially with Annika's and Alyssa's difficult way of teaching things. Then, she knew she was getting off the important thing. Then paid attention to Natsume's flashback dream once more.
Natsume felt insulted, hurt, confused, but mostly furious. He coldly glared at her and the guy waiting for her by the garage door. He turned and went on his own way. He didn't watch much T.V. nor listened to the gossip from the magazines. He mostly -
Suddenly his dream was beginning to fade away from Mikan's vision. It was becoming darker and darker. "What's happening?" Mikan wasn't sure what was happening when everything went dark.
*Poke*
*Poke*
*Poke*
"Hm?" Mikan slowly sat up, and boy did her back ache! She rubbed her eyes, and blinked as her eyes was getting adjusted to the light in the room. When they did, she noticed some people were at their desks. She noticed Koko with a stick? So that was what was poking her? Anyways she knew one thing.
The Mikan Natsume saw was an imposter.
