Chapter 10: Tears of Love

The two shadows jumped down from the tree.

Natsume was shocked when he saw who were there.

"Persona and ... Reo?" Natsume asked.

"Hi, Natsume." Persona smiled.

Reo just stood there, staring blankly.

Then Natsume knew what happened, Reo has lost the gleam in his eyes.

"What did you do to Reo?" Natsume asked.

"Nothing, I just ask him to help me something." Persona grinned.

"Help you something?" Natsume looked at Reo, who stared at the trees blankly.

"Anyway, we can't keep Reo waiting, do you understand?" Persona asked as he stared at Mikan.

"Of course."

"Natsume, stop! You are injured!" Mikanshouted before Natsume and Persona start fighting again.

Just as Natsume turned around and told Mikan to run away before Persona catch her, he got hit by Persona.

Nastume sat on the floor, staring at Persona who was walking towards him.

Mikan rushed out, trying to protect Natsume.

"Idiot! Go away!" Natsume shouted.

"I said my name is MIKAN!" Mikan shouted.

And they started arguing again.

Persona nodded to Reo, and Reo walked towards Natsume and Mikan.

Before Natsume and Mikan realized, Reo has already started mumbling something.

Mikan started concentrate on using her nullification alice, but it didn't seem to work.

"What is happening, my alice, it dissapeared? It can't be..."

Before Mikan could continue, Natsume got hit by something, they were fire.

It seems that Reo has used his alice to control Natsume by using his fire to hurt himself.

But it was not enough, Reo started mumbling something again, this time, Mikan heard a word, "...Kill..."

What is he saying? Mikan thought.

Then Natsume stood up unsteadily, his face was full with pain, as if he is fighting with something.

"Natsume, are you ok? Are you sure you can walk now?" Mikan asked.

Natsume didn't answer.

Mikan stared at Natsume, he was being control by Reo, but surprisingly, he was still arguing with it.

"Run." Natsume whispered.

"No way, I won't, I won't leave you behind, no matter what." Mikan said.

"Just run, idiot." Natsume shouted, using his remainging strength to shout.

"I said I won't." Mikan shouted back.

At that time, Natsume was just in front of her.

Then he started using his alice.

Mikan closed her eyes, she didn't have any power to use her alice, tears rolled down her cheeks.

But Mikan didn't get hurt, she opened her eyes and saw the fire burning Natsume.

"Don't! Natsume! What are you doing?" Mikan shouted and pushed Natsume away from the fire.

Natsume quickly stop the fire, "I told you to run." he said to Mikan who was on top of her.

"I won't let you do those stupid things." Mikan said, then she realized that she was sitting on top of Natsume, she blushed and quickly backed away.

But when she got up, Natsume's eyes were closed, "Natsume! Are you ok! Don't die!"

Mikan shaked Natsume.

"How can I die with you keep shaking me." Natsume said.

Mikan sighed.

At that time, Reo said to Persona, "Persona-sama, his body is too weak, so he won't be able to burn himself."

"We don't need fire to kill him now." Persona smiled as he walked towards Natsume and Mikan, ready to kill them.

But a shield appeared in front them and stop Persona.

Persona sighed and dissapeared with Reo.

"Mikan, do you remember when we are at that maze, I have something to tell you?" Natsme asked.

Mikan nodded.

"I wanted to continue my words before I die, those words are... 'I love you'" Natsume smiled and fainted.

Mikan was too shocked to respond, after a few seconds, she looked at Natsume.

"Natsume! Wake up! What does that mean?" Mikan shouted.

But Natsume didn't wake up.

Mikan held Natsume tightly, "Idiot, why did you do it?"

Tears rolled down Mikan's cheeks and landed on Natsume.

"Wake up please, Natsume, I still haven't reply you." Mikan sobbed.

Suddenly, Natsume's eyes began to open.

"Natsume!" Mikan was very surprised, she hugged Natsume very tightly.

"Get off me, idiot! I can't breathe!" Natsume shouted.

"Sorry." Mikan gave Natsume a tearful smile, "I am glad that you are safe."

"You said you will reply me now, what's the answer?"

"The answer is... I love you too." Mikan smiled.

They stared at each other and kissed.
