Disclaimer: I don't own Gakuen Alice….
Both of them soon doss off and entered the dreamland together.
"Natsume-kun? Why do we get to see each other in the dream again? I don't think I get to see you in my previous dreams when school starts." Mikan asked.
Natsume looked at the surroundings, "My guess is that it will only happen when we both sleep together in a room." He answered.
'This place looked a lot stranger that the last time I saw it. It looks as if a huge war is going to come. The tension here is so nervous.' He thought.
Soon, 2 figures walked towards them and they recognized that they are Hikari and Takeru. Both of them are fully armored and both looked very well-prepared for fight.
"This is going to be the last battle, Kari." Takeru said.
Hikari nodded in agreement, "I wondered what the fate of this village will be? We might have evacuates all the innocent and powerless villagers, but there are still some more people here."
"I'm sure we will be alrite, Kari." Takeru answered, with a bit of uncertainty.
Hikari looked at the Sakura tree, which has been watching this couple grew up since young. This is the tree where they swore their love to each other; where they made up every time they quarrel; where they shared their first kiss; where they will normally hang out at.
"Ne, T.K, if… I mean if I can't make it back from the battle, please stop waiting for me. Go and find someone better than me." Hikari said, looking solemnly at him.
"What on earth are you talking about, Kari?" Takeru shouted. "We will make it back safely… we will be together forever…" He then exclaimed.
Hikari looked at him, "No one knows what will happen in this battle, T.K. I'm just implanting that if… if I don't make it back safely…" Hikari stated.
"Mou yamerou…. We will be together no matter of what, Kari…" Takeru interrupted her by hugging her. "Look, if we get separated in the battle, let's meet back here after that. I have something to give you." He then said.
Hikari hesitate for a while, "Ano… ok, I promise…" she agreed.
Just as they were still in their own, small space, talking about their things, someone called out loud, "Omi's troop is coming. The Omi, Shinta, is approaching the village."
"We better go now, Kari. The rest of the villagers are of no match to Shinta." Takeru said and she nodded.
Natsume and Mikan followed them to the battlefield frontline. Once they reached there, the sight immediately stunned Natsume and Mikan. The troop that Takeru and Hikari they all are fighting are armed with guns and swords. Furthermore, there are a lot of people, compared to the villagers.
"This is finally the last battle, T.K" Hikari said and he agreed.
The leader of the troop finally stepped out, "Finally, Ouji-sama, Hime-sama. We have finally meets and this time round, you people's power will finally be mine. After this battle, no one will be able to stop me from conquering the world." That guy said.
"Not until you have wins us, Shinta!" Takeru replied.
As soon as Takeru finally his words, both parties started to fight. The battle is a very fierce battle as a lot of people, regardless the villagers or their enemies died. While they were fighting, both Natsume and Mikan are standing at one corner, watching it.
"Wind tornado!" Hikari shouted, preventing the enemies attack to the villagers.
"Wave Rush!" Takeru launched at Shinta, but was blocked.
Shinta smiled, "There is no way you people can do to me." He said.
Both Hikari and Takeru worked together and defeat many from the troop.
"Sugoi… Ne, Natsume-kun, they are really unbeatable when they worked together." Mikan said as they observe they fight.
Natsume nodded as he continues to observe their fighting method, 'Mikan is right. They are truly very good and skillful fighters.'
"There is too much casualties here, T.K. We have to do something about it first." Hikari said, looking around.
Takeru looked around, "I agreed too… let's do the work separately. I'll heal the people here. You tried to evacuate all the rest of the people in the battle. And, Kari, remember our promise!" Takeru said before he left to heal people.
While Takeru is healing the injured people, he also has to look out for Shinta's troop's attacks. However, one person is not able to do various tasks. He was fatedly wounded by one of Shinta's man, but it did not stop him from continue fighting and healing people.
'I won't lose… I can't lose… I have to keep my promise to Kari… I have to save all this people… I can't lose now… I can't be beaten down now…' Takeru thought as he continues his tasks.
At Hikari's side, she is also busying fighting and evacuating the rest of the wounded people out of the village. As she was evacuating the people, one of Shinta's men gave her a fatal shot from her back, costing her to stumble. This, however, did not stop her from her task. Instead, her attacks are more powerful each time she releases.
'I… I cannot lose here… I can't afford to die... T.K…. T.K. says that he has …. something to give… give me… I have… had to make it back to the Sakura tree.' Hikari thought as she evacuates the last of the villager remained.
Both Hikari and Takeru use the very last of their life and energy, and finally defeat the enemies, killing all of them. However, they did not let go of their very last breathe. They both still have a promise to keep and, use the very last of their strength, made it back to the Sakura tree.
"Hi…Hikari…" Takeru started as he held her. "It seems that… we don't have much time left… I… I intend to give this to you before the… the battle begins… but, now… I guess it seems a bit to late…" Takeru stated, holding something on his hand.
Hikari took it over and opened it up. She was actually very surprise to find a ring in the box and cried softly.
"Ta… Takeru… I… I don't know what to say…. I don't think we are able to…" Hikari started. "But… But, in our next life, let's continue our love, shall we?" she said.
"Ok, Kari…." Takeru said, kissing her.
Hikari took Takeru's hand and wrote her name, "My name is written in your hand… keep it in your heart… this way, we will be able to remember each other deeply in our heart." She then said.
Takeru nodded and wrote his name in her hand. He then took out that ring and put it on her finger. They finally died with a sealed kiss under that Sakura tree which has watched over them since young. Seeing this sight, Mikan's tears started dropping again. Natsume held her close to him and comfort her. It was only 3 days after the battle when the villagers found the bodies of Hikari and Takeru and buried them together.
Right after the villagers buried their bodies, the whole surrounding suddenly turned black.
"What… What is going on here, Natsume-kun?" Mikan asked.
"Not sure… we better be more alert…" Natsume suggested.
Suddenly, a binding light appear in front of them and someone walked towards them from the light. Natsume and Mikan shield their eyes from the light and, soon, they saw 2 figures in front of them.
"Hi there, you two…" The guy asked.
"Who are you?" Mikan asked. "You two looked very familiar." She then said.
"Oh dear, surely you have not forgotten about us, who died in front of you a few minute, or maybe, seconds ago?" That lady smiled.
Natsume looked at the 2 of them, asked, "You two are Fuyuki Hikari and Misaki Takeru?"
"Bingo! You're correct, Natsume-kun. We are Hikari and Takeru alrite, plus, we are also the 2 of you previous incarnation." Hikari answered.
"But… How…" Mikan asked.
Takeru smiled, "Our spirits has been sleeping inside your bodies ever since the 2 of you were born. We didn't mean to wake up or disturb your lives, but, recently we sense that the evils are getting closer to the 2 of you." He then looked at Natsume, "Especially you, Natsume-kun. Since you are working for the school, the organization will notice you easier compared to Mikan-chan." He then said.
"Therefore, we are here to warn you guys about it… You both have seen the power of our Alice and the power of the evil. Now is the time for the 2 of you to continue fulfilling the destiny." Hikari said.
Both of them started to diminish faintly, "And remember, you two are not alone….." Takeru said finally before they diminish together.
