Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN GAKUEN ALICE.

Summary: The fairy land is in trouble. Mikan, the princess of the fairy world step up and decide to do something about it. Her only choice is to appeal to the land of the Demons. On her journey, she meets this boy whose name is Natsume and also is the prince of the Demons?! What will happen to her?!

AUTHOR NOTE: I realised I totally forget about Nonoko in chapter 13 ! I keep concentrating on Sumire and Mikan and forgets about her ! Gomen! But since I left her out, just think that she is rescued and the whole land is peaceful again, LOL. (to keep my job easy =P)

Chapter 14
Is not the end, yet.

Damn, my body is numb... My back hurts, is injured? I feel some bandages is wrapped around me....
Natsume was resting in his chamber. He is sweating due to his injuries.
"Natsume, are you alright?" He is sweating like crap.Mikan whisper to Natsume and helped him wiped his sweat."Please be okay."
Natsume tried to move himself, he moved his fingers a little, he didn't want Mikan to be worried about him.
"Don't move dear, the numbness will be there till tonight, please bear for awhile, this is to stop the pain while healing the injuries." Mikan say to him softly, caressing his face.
"Mikan, aren't you going to eat?" That was Hotaru at the door.
"Sshh...."
"Whatever, please eat, everyone is worried about your stomach" Hotaru rolled her eyes.
"I'm not hungry, really. Please tell them not to worry about me, I'm fine."
"Are you sure? If you feel like eating just go to the dinning hall, your food is there."
"Sure, thanks Hotaru."
"Bye." And Hotaru walked out of Natsume's chamber.
She's not eating...Natsume thought.
And the night came so slowly for the both of them. Mikan fell asleep beside Natsume in his big bed. Natsume's injuries recovered by the night(you know, magics), his numbness wears off. He sit up slowly as his muscles and bones have been stiff for the pass few hours on bed. He saw his little princess sleeping soundly beside him, stupid.He was worried when he heard Mikan was not having any food, She must be starving now. He caress her face and went down to kiss her warm pink lips. Thank you.

************

"Mikan, wake up" Natsume tried to wake Mikan up.
"Hmmm?" Mikan still sleepy and hardly open her eyes.
"Morning, sleeping beauty."
Mikan smiled and replied, " Morning Prince, is your injuries still hurt?" Mikan rolled over to face Natsume., still sleepy.
"It doesn't hurt anymore.", "You look so pretty when you wake up,"
"Stop seducing me, I might get high blood pressure." She chuckled.
"I'm serious you know." Natsume look deep into Mikan's eye, like the whole world surrounding them is invisible. Only when Natsume notice something blinking before his eyes, the two of them came back to where they should be.
"You didn't wear the ring I gave you?" Natsume asked sadly.
"I'm wearing, but it's chained. I didn't hear your 'actual' propose, on the other hand, I was thinking I might not survive in the war. But now, everything ends just like this, so fast and quick, but we live through the days cautiously and so stress..." Tears starts to stir in Mikan's eyes.
"The story ends here, next is our story, will you marry me, Princess Mikan?"
"Do I have a choice? Or maybe a reason to reject you?" Mikan teased.
"No, you don't have a choice nor a reason" He kissed her forehead and whispered,"Thank you for being my bride" They hugged together, like they have been separated for a long time.
"OH PLEASE! WE ARE WAITING FOR YOU AND YOU FOR BREAKFAST, FOR GOD SAKE! WE ARE WAITING ! BE QUICK! STOP THE MUSHY OUT THERE!" A loud voice shouted by the door, which is Hotaru, led by Aoi's and Ruka's giggles.
"We will be right there! Give us some time please Hotaru!" Mikan shouted back.
"FAST!" Hotaru demanded.

************

During breakfast, everyone was concentrating on their food, only when Hotaru broke the silence, everyone got surprised.
"Mikan, we are going back today, the land need us ASAP, Narumi can't forever rule for us." Hotaru say.
"That fast?"
"Yes, please get ready and leave by late afternoon, plus we have a ceremony to attend."
"What ceremony?"
"Something about taking over the role of ruling the country."
"But is not about me!'
"It is us!"
"I don't want to..."
"You have to."
Mikan was shaking with tears, Natsume who is sitting beside her held her hands, he knows Mikan didn't want to leave his side.
"Is okay." Natsume say so softly only Mikan can hear.
On the other hand, Ruka wasn't that worry about Hotaru(Independent woman).

After packing, they reach the gates where the carriages are prepared.
"We will be going now." Mikan forced a smile on her face, trying not to cry. she don't like partings to be crying all around.
"See you soon." Ruka say.
Natsume walked up to Mikan and whispered something that makes Mikan smile and cried in joy.
"Bye." Mikan peck Natsume on the lips and went onto the carriage with Hotaru.

FEW MONTHS LATER....

After the ceremony ended and eveything in fairyland is back to normal, they finally get a chance to settle down and rest.
Mikan send back the fairies just before she leave Natsume. She is bored, she is lonely, she is stress with the paperwork given by Hotaru ( Hotaru needed help ), everything she does seems to distract her thinking of Natsume. When she is finally free, she stay around the balcony to breathe in some fresh air. As the 2nd Queen, there is surely much more things to do than before.
I miss Natsume...

When she stares at the sky thinking about her Natsume, Hotaru barged into her room and ordered her to stand straight and let the maids do the measuring.
"What is all this measuring for?" Mikan tried to ask.
"A new dress for some event, stop asking and don't move."
Well, she is used to attending events and ceremony all these months with new dresses ordered by Hotaru.
"Can I know the colour scheme for this dress you are making me?"
"Have not decided. You will know soon." Well, Hotaru is good at lying (LOL).
"Great, events again."

**********

A few day passed and Hotaru barged into her room again.
"BLINDFOLD HER AND KIDNAP HER TO THE VENUE NOW!" Hotaru ordered the guards and maids to tie and blindfold Mikan up and bring her to the carriage.
What is all this about?!Mikan tried to struggle but too many people is holding her down. So she was frustrated and waited patiently while "she" is being delivered to the so-call "venue".
When the carriage stops, she was bought down and carried for a very long way and finally settled down. Hotaru took off the blindfold and untied her.
"What is this Hotaru?! And where am I?!" Mikan asked.
"Just shut up! Maids please do the make-up and change her into the gown, ASAP, quick!" Hotaru demanded.
