Living As Each Other

By Yonoko Ishizari

Summary: They heard something about a certain legend, but didn't realize that it was all true.

Something happens unexpectedly, that will shock all of them. Just wait and see…

Disclaimer: I do not own Gakuen Alice or any of its characters. Besides, Sune will probably do something about it if I do own it.

Natsume: How many times will I have to tell you to stop calling me Sune! (fireballs included)

Yonoko: You're saying it yourself now, very good. (pats his back)

Natsume: Yoko! (creates more fireballs)

Yonoko: I see you've improved a lot. Now, you're calling me by my nickname too! Hurray!

Natsume: Tell me what you put in that juice that I just drank, Yoko! (more and more fireballs)

Yonoko: Um…What juice? What…what are you talking about? I…don't know anything about that. (sweatdropped)

Natsume: Why do I suddenly feel so tired? (falls over) Zzzzz….

Yonoko: (tipy toes then touched Sune with a finger) Mwahahahaha! He's finally asleep. Phase 1: complete. Phase 2: ongoing.

Kokoroyomi: Are you sure about this?

Mr. Narumi: Yoko, don't you think that this plan is a little bit too much?

Yonoko: Of course not! It's totally under control. And before the plan, I really want to thank nikkiru, izumi/aher-kun, Ms. Cherrywolf, chaomi, denslashdenise, and dbzgt2004 for your reviews, and also to the readers out there! So, are you ready for the next chapter?

(Audience: Yes! Bring it on! We want it!)

Kokoroyomi: You're off to dreamland again, huh?

Mr. Narumi: (whispers to Koko: She may be a part witch and crazy after all. Maybe, Natsume's telling the truth.)

Kokoroyomi: (whispers to Mr Narumi: If it's true, hnn…creepy.)

Yonoko: If you're talking about me as a witch or crazy beyond all reason, dream on, people! I'm not, mwahahahaha!

Mr. Narumi & Kokoroyomi: She definitely acts like one.

Yonoko: So, Natsume influenced you huh? Help me decide on what potion to give you then.

Mr. Narumi: We're not saying anything. Right, Koko? (sweatdropped)

Kokoroyomi: Nothing to talk about. (sweatdropped)

Yonoko: Why are you so offensive all of a sudden? I'm only joking. Did you think that I actually have magical potions?

Mr. Narumi & Kokoroyomi: Kind of…what about that juice that Natsume drank?

Yonoko: I'll tell you at the end of the chapter, ok? Here begins Chapter 3!

Chapter 3: They Will Not Know…Right?

"What happened to us, Natsume?" Mikan asked.

"Do I have to spell out the obvious?" Natsume said irritably.

Do you want to know why they are acting like that? It's because, looking at the person beside them is like looking at a tall mirror seeing their own reflection…

"Why did this happen? What was that dream all about? How will we survive in the cruel world like this? I don't want to be a boy! What will everyone say?" Mikan shot so many questions all at once that Natsume didn't know what to answer first. But after a while…

"Don't ask silly questions. Even I don't know what happened, but be sure to remember one thing," Natsume said.

"What's that?" Mikan asked.

"Be sure not to tell anybody about this. Hotaru and Ruka must not know about this as well. We should live our lives like always. This will be the plan temporarily until we know how to get back to our original bodies," Natsume said.

"That's easy for you to say! I don't want to be you. You're pretty mysterious to other people. Besides, how will I act?" Mikan asked.

"Act like me and I will act like you which is totally disgusting by the way. We should try to realize that this is a big problem for the two of us if they knew about this. Understood, polka-dots?" Natsume said.

"Understood. And by the way, I should be the one calling you polka-dots because you're the one wearing it. Hahaha," Mikan was hysterical.

"You're right. I will change your lame style, and with it…your polka-dots," Natsume said teasingly.

"Let's just see about that, Natsume. Think about what I can do to your precious mysterious style. It's all going to change," Mikan also said teasingly.

"Whatever you do, I'll be two steps ahead of you," Natsume said.

'What does he mean?' Mikan thought.

DING! DING! DING! DING!

"Classes are about to start!" Mikan said.

"Let's go back quickly, and remember what I said earlier. Nobody should ever know," Natsume said.

They didn't seem to notice, but someone saw them from a nearby bush. It was Ruka Nogi. 'What are they doing together?' He thought. Fortunately, he didn't hear about Mikan and Natsume's talk.

Next period: Mr. Ginno's class, Will he notice?

"Ms. Sakura, could you solve this problem?" Mr. Ginno said.

Written on the board was a Math problem which was probably too hard for poor Mikan, but fortunately, Natsume's the one in her body. When Mr. Ginno said that, Mikan and Natsume stood at the same time to everybody's surprise. Mikan in Natsume's body realized her mistake and instantly sat down. Natsume on the other hand, went to the blackboard and solved the problem. To everybody's surprise…Mikan solved the problem correctly. Mr. Ginno's eyes popped out and everyone in the classroom, except for Mikan in Natsume's body stood up.

"What?" Natsume in Mikan's body said.

Suddenly, Kokoroyomi did a very strange thing. He read Mikan's mind! Which was by the way, Natsume in Mikan's body.

"Why is everybody so surprised? Oh I forgot about what happened. Koko, are you reading my mind?" Mikan or rather Natsume in Mikan's body said angrily. Then, another strange thing happened. Mikan or should I say Natsume in Mikan's body created fireballs that is now surrounding Kokoroyomi. Mikan in Natsume's body immediatedly ran to Natsume in Mikan's body and nullified Natsume's alice. After what happened, everyone became suspicious.

"What happened to you two? What just happened?" Mr. Ginno asked.

Yonoko: Sorry to end this chapter so soon, people. It's just that I'm so busy lately with all of the exams. It's hard to be in high school! Anyways, I hope that all of you will be contented with this chapter. I'll really appreciate reviews, criticisms, suggestions, and anything at all.

Kokoroyomi: So, now that it's finished, can you tell us what's on Sune's juice?

Yonoko: Wow, Koko! You too! You're calling Natsume by his nickname!

Mr. Narumi: (whispers to Koko: It's not that. Right, Koko? It's because you're scared of her, right?)

Kokoroyomi: (whispers to Mr. Naru: Totally!) Hey! You're changing the topic Yoko! Not fair!

Yonoko: Ok. Fine. The juice has…(cough)

Mr. Narumi: What is it?

Yonoko: (cough) (cough) (cough) (cough) (cough) (cough) (cough) (cough) (cough)

Kokoroyomi: I think that she means that she's going to tell us next chapter, readers.

Mr. Narumi: Seems like it. Huh…
