Passion for Fashion
Me: Wow! I got a compliment!! Thank you very much! So this would be the twenty-first chapter, did you notice that I'm not writing an author's note in the whole Chapter?? Hehe, so you'd better read my notes since I'm going to put secrets or something about the story! Passion for Fashion would end on Chapter 25; I have been planning this out since I started this fic. I hope you enjoy this chapter!
Chapter 21: Alice Festival...?
"I told you before! I will NEVER ambush your mission NOR kill any of you!!" Luna said as she wiggled out of the ropes that tied her hands to a post
"Just shut your pie-hole up Koizumi!" Natsume said
"Yeah! Because if you keep on shouting, your beautiful voice would be wasted!" Tonouichi said, Mikan and Luna glared at him, but he just shrugged it off
When they were ready to depart at 4:30 in the morning, Tonouichi unleashed her from the post, but her hands were still tied by the rope…
"Natsume, you aid Koizumi, Mikan and I will be for look out." Tonoouichi said, but Natsume disagreed with the idea
"No, you aid her, she likes me, but I don't so you should aid her." Natsume said
"But she thinks I'm a kid molester! YOU should be the one to aid HER!" Tono countered and glared at Natsume
"Hell no would I aid her!" Natsume barked and glared back, Mikan then volunteered herself to aid the tied up soon-to-be newcomer of the school
"You two, Shut-up! I'll be the one to aid her then!" Mikan said and broke the glaring battle of the two men; they never stop glaring at each other, do they?
So in the end, Mikan was the one with Luna, But Luna kept on talking about Mikan's Past, which made Mikan glare, Huff, Sob, Sulk and whatever verbs you can think of.
"You didn't tell them about last night?" Luna asked
"No." Mikan answered, between clenched teeth
"So how's Kyu and Ryu?" Luna asked, acting civil, as if she isn't an enemy or anything, instead a friend who lost communication after a month.
"Never have been better, Ryu-nii is still the same older brother I have, and Kyu is still the annoying jerk he is." Mikan answered and shrugged
"I see… So tell me about the academy's oh-so famous kuro and Shiro Neko?" Luna asked
"Why should I tell you about those?" Mikan asked and sent Luna a lethal glare, but Luna just ignored it and gave her a dead serious and down right adamant look.
"Because." Luna answered and snorted, glancing at her side
"Because, what?" Mikan asked again
"Just, Because. Now tell me about the two!" Luna said and gave Mikan a lethal glare which was more effective than hers, and since it was more effective, she gave in.
"I uhh… Natsume is the Academy's Black Cat… and the White one… ano… shiro… Shiro is…" Mikan stammered; Natsume took notice that Mikan was giving information reflexively.
"Koizumi, if you dare talk to Mikan about the Academy's Black ops… You might not see the Academy gates…" Natsume said and glared at her, this made Luna shut up and smiled sweetly at Natsume, but it was too sweet for anyone's taste…
When they arrived at the Academy gates, they all wore their disguises like the Academy guards. Black clothes and sunglasses, Mikan's hair was tied up into a ponytail, but instead of black slacks, she wore black skirts. Luna wore her 'casual yet formal' designer dresses…
Ah, a commotion it is in Alice Academy…
"Oh Kami-sama…. I've read this on the Seventeen(1)! It says that Luna Koizumi is going to back to school but I didn't know that it'd be in the Academy!" a girl gasped in a whisper
"Really? Oh yeah! I've read that too! So that's why there are a lot of people here!" another said in realization
"Wow, this year is the coolest year ever! First were the Sakura Siblings, then Heidi Klum and Tyra Banks, and now… Luna Koizumi!!" a girl said and gasped as she fanned herself.
"Totally! And did you purchase The Runway(2), Seventeen and Playboy(3) magazines? Because if you compare the three magazines… you'll notice that they all have the Luna Koizumi and Mikan Sakura Rivalry-thingy Column!" A girl said and giggled
"Really? What's it says in Runway?" another girl asked, why they are gossiping of course dear readers, this you should have expected if we are to talk about celebrities!
"Luna challenged Mikan on a Show down… I don't know the reason why, though, since Luna did not state the reason in her interview in Playboy mag.…"The girl answered
As the one-fourths of the mob were gossiping, the remaining three-fourths were all screaming and shouting as they welcome the said 'hottest' model of Japan, even though she's half American that is why she got that kind of publicity, Her father was a former Hollywood Producer, and her mother was just a common Japanese girl…
"Hi! Thanks for the hearty welcome! Loved it!" Luna said and blew kisses at every direction, as Mikan gave a forlorn look at Luna's direction.
"Miss Koizumi, we should proceed to the Heads…" Mikan gestured Luna out of the crowd…
"hmp." Luna Huffed and walked to the head master's room, but of course, as a model, she had her steps criss-crossing. They arrived at the Head Master's Office. Mikan, Natsume and Tonouichi immediately reported to Persona upon Arrival.
"Aa.. Luna Koizumi-san… It's nice to finally see you…" the Head Master said as he gestured Luna to seat
"Yes. It had been quite a while, huh? Head Master-san…" Luna answered and grinned
"Why yes… So how is your cousin? Still Revolting against the Academy?" The Man asked
"She'll Never change." Luna answered forming a forlorn look
"Aa… and what brought you here, my dear?" He asked, Luna light up and smiled at the man
"Why to go against my dear cousin, of course!" She answered with the cheery smile plastered on her face
"Oh, So I see… would you like to be a part of the Black Ops?" the Head Master offered, but Luna just shook her head
"I'm here for three reasons… Revenge, My Career and… Life…" Luna answered and Her cheery smile turned into a sly one.
"Ohohohoho! So you're the revenging cousin, eh?" He heartily laughed…
"Yes. I do expect this to happen, after making me look like a fool in her organization, I cannot tolerate her! I can't even believe that we have the same blood running through our veins " Luna said and huffed
The Head Master again, laughed. "That, we cannot change!"
"Anyway. Would you permit me to use my mobile phone while in the Academy?" Luna asked, the head master simply agreed.
"You'd be aided by one of the teachers here to your room." The Head Master said and with that, the blonde girl left the Office and was greeted by a blonde guy…
"Konnichiwa Luna-Chan! I'm Narumi, I'll soon be your teacher!" Narumi said flashing his "charming smile" at the girl, Luna wore her sunglasses
"dare call me 'Luna-Chan' and I'll eradicate you from this world!" Luna hissed and glared at Narumi, she was a inches taller than the teacher, that is why she has to look down
"uhh…Hai…" Narumi mumbled
"hmp." Luna huffed and looked away
"So.. uhh.. Should I escort you to your room?" Narumi asked, Luna just nodded and they both walked down and up the halls of the Academy, until they arrived in a Special star room, but this time, it was far better than any other special star rooms, because it has a computer and a printer, as well as a TV set
Yes. She's so lucky.
But you might wanna ask why give her this kind of treatment if she's from the enemy's organization?
Easy.
Who do you think gives the information for the Academy's black Ops? Of course there are spies. And we count Luna Koizumi as one.
Luna surveyed her new room, checking for any CCTVs but found none.
She turned to the computer and produced a rare smile, she turned it on, and then opened Microsoft Publisher, she chose the 'newsletter' and started typing information, or should I say, news?
She started the newsletter with her heading; she tapped her chin, and then thought of something snappy yet good for a gossip…
.
.
.
3 Days had past, and the Alice Festivities had already started, colorful banners and the different Ability classes, doing something unique to win the Alice fest.
The gang had already visited 2 ability classes which where the Latent and Technical type. It had been a great three days.
Nothing new, nothing unusual; well, except the fact that the Attractions where entirely different from each other. But no missions came up. Natsume was still acting cold, Mikan was still the same idiot, and Hotaru was still the cold genius inventor. Nothing changed, apparently.
"Well?" Asked Mikan
"Well, what?" Asked Natsume, they stared at each other, then Hotaru snapped a picture at them, Natsume popped a vein, and tried to control his anger…
"Hotaru!!!" Mikan squealed and tried to hug her best friend, but instead of succeeding, they ended up chasing each other around the Academy, well not until Mikan ended to a halt on their Sakura Festival RPG. She gaped at it…
"Whoa…" She mumbled and gazed at the scenery, there was more than ten stalls, and one Alice tends to each stall, the lights were amazing, everything looks like a Sakura festival…
"Hello! Are you here for the Sakura-Alice festival?" a girl, cosplaying a random anime asked, eyeing Hotaru.
"Umm… She's a friend of mine, umm… wait… Miyu-chan... Why are you here? Aren't you in the latent type?" Mikan asked eyeing the 10 year old girl in front of her.
"Well yeah, but like you Mikan-sempai, I have to be in the Special type and the Latent type!"Though I never attended any special ability classes…' She said and continued in her thoughts, Mikan read it and giggled, Hotaru just stared at the two, seeming uninterested.
She then pointed her Baka gun at Mikan…
Baka. Baka. Baka!
"WHAAAA!!! Hotaru! Why did you do that?!" Mikan asked (translation: Whined)
"Baka." Was the only thing Mikan heard from Hotaru as the genius inventor rode her duck scooter and sped off
Mikan sat there on the cold cement, wailing on why Hotaru hit her and left her!
After some minutes, she realized something…
"OH F---!!!" She cursed and sped away, leaving a confused and surprised Alice Tracker behind…
"What's that supposed to mean?" Miyuki asked herself and shrugged and then left, going back to the ability class.
While Mikan sped off to Natsume, then it came to her, Natsume must not be involved to this! So she changed direction, now going to the teacher's lounge.
-Meanwhile-
"Aa… I wonder if where Tomichii and Sakura would be…" Natsume mumbled, as he looked up at the tree, staring at the Flowers, blooming…
"Mikan Sakura could've been mine, before that French actor showed up…" He mumbled again, and then he noticed Mikan Running her energy out, she abruptly stopped and changed direction, he got confused by the girl's action, but then, he just shrugged it off; Knowing that she had been doing that ever since.
"But… Polka-dots is still worth…" Natsume said, finally realizing that there's still a Mikan waiting… But what he never knew was that Mikan would always be there. Waiting for him. Waiting for him to make a move and ask her out! Duhh.
He looked up again, wondering about his feelings for the actress and the clueless polka dots…
And to think, you call her clueless… you're far more clueless than her!
Am not. And why did you show up just now?
I'm only here when you need help. Duhh. I'll make it fast; I'm knitting a teddy bear…
Knitting? Have you gone nuts??
No. but I should say, it helps improve patience and concentration…
Whatever. Back to topic.
Okay so… you should make up your mind, Hot Model or dense idiot?
You know, Dense and idiot, doesn't make a sentence…
Whatever, I've gotta go. I have to finish that teddy bear!
Natsume heaved a sigh, what a weird conscience he has, thought he. He then stood up and started walking to his room…
-back to Mikan-
"But Narumi Sensei!" Mikan pleaded
"Mikan-Chan, Koizumi-san's room is a restricted area… you can't just barge in, without her consent!" Narumi told the brunette
"But I have the right to!" Mikan said, pleadingly, she had a puppy pout, and tears are welling up on her eyes, to make her act believable
"Fie, fine… but be sure not to invoke her, okay?" Narumi asked, waiting for an assurance, Mikan nodded in agreement, and skipped going to Luna's room, when she arrived, she knocked on the door…
"Who is it?" A voice asked behind the door, Mikan cringed upon hearing the sound. The voice itself made her wanna puke. It was sickening sweet.
"Koizumi, it's me. Sakura, Open up the door!" Mikan hissed, rather harshly, on the other side of the door, we can see Luna give a huge smirk, then stood up, she opened the door, only to be greeted by a punch
"What the hell??" She questions, and glared at Mikan, she tried to aim a fist on Mikan's Face, but failed. Mikan pushed her in to the door, as she closed the door.
"You have to tell me your reason!" Mikan said, and she glared at the blonde girl with a bleeding nose
"why the hell should I? You just broke my fucking nose!" Luna hissed, as her glare intensify
The two had a short glaring contest, which lasted less than a minute, Luna finally gave in. and sat on her bed, trying to cure her now-broken nose.
"Let's make a deal. I'm going to heal your nose, but you HAVE to tell me your reason on why you're here." Mikan said, as she sat beside the girl.
"Fine. I'm here b'cuz' I need to get a rest after being the Academy's spy for almost 10 years." Luna answered formally, but still caressing her broken and bleeding nose.
"Oh, so you were the one who was giving out us the information, eh?" Mikan asked, Luna just glared at her in return. She then healed Luna's nose, emitting a greenish light from her palms, then she healed the broken nose, the blood dried out, and the nose was back to normal. Luna hugged Mikan, and of course, she was also surprised by the sudden action. A huge smirk was displayed on her face; she then bit Mikan's flawless neck… The brunette's chocolate eyes glowed red and then back to its normal color.
"Mikan… You do know about the black ops right?" Luna asked, Mikan nodded
"Tell me everything about them." Luna commanded Mikan, and she blurted out everything. After it, Luna just shooed the girl out of the room…
