Chapter 3: What did you see?

12.32pm in Class B…

"Hum… seems that Narumi-sensei noticed it." Said a boy.

"Who wouldn't." Said another one and some nodded to it.

"That's true! It's pretty obvious that there is something odd about her."

Then there was a silence. And everyone turned their head to the back of the classroom which made feel that everyone was suspected… him.

"Huh… What?" Said harshly a crimson eyed boy.

His face was covered half the way by his manga. He sensed that everyone was looking at him, even if he looked at them with an angry look nobody wanted to back off. His look was pretty murderous, he wanted at that... burned everyone in a second.

The silence was really persistent that made everyone feel really uncomfortable by exchange glare. They were about to say something when suddenly the door opened. Everyone looked at the door.

Nothing. And most of the student muttered some word which was: ghost. When suddenly…

"YOUICHI." Yelled a girl. It was Sumire. She was about to go near him when…

"Back off hag girl." Said Youichi with a harsh tone, which made Sumire stunned. Everyone sweatdropped by the word of the little boy.

He passed of the stone Cat-Dog Alice girl in searched of his onii-chan. He found him and ran toward him who just looked up from his manga once again. Youichi was about to arrive to his onii-chan when he stopped by a table, looked at it.

"Natsume-nii-chan, why isn't the Ugly Hag back yet?" He asked while looking at Natsume and the seat.

Everyone looked at him: some tried to figure out the meaning of Ugly Hag and other the meaning of back.

"Huh… Youichi… you saw her?" Asked Natsume.

"Hai!" He answered as well nodded while sitting on Natsume laps.

"Where did you see her?" Asked Anna to Youichi. Before he could answer there was another question.

"Was she with Narumi-sensei?" Asked Nonoko.

"Was she leading here?" Asked Sumire after some time of stunned.

"Was she feeling well?" Asked Yuu (typical of him)

Youichi got really pissed of by these question and wasn't been able to answer none of them. Ruka saw that his tempter reached his limit, he backed off as possible. It was the same for Koko, who just read the little boy's mind and immediately hid under a desk and looked at the scene. Even Hotaru, she just entered one of her invention which seemed to be a shell. Natsume just looked at the little boy exercising his Ghost Alice on the student. He let out his ghost friend whose just went after all the student except for Natsume, Ruka, Hotaru and Koko.

After the attack, everyone passed out for some time, which made Natsume smirked to the situation. He then looked at Youichi, while Koko touched a boy on the ground with admiration and curious to the body, but specially to the thought that the guy had. He had here a WILD smile.

"So could you tell me where did you see her?" Asked Natsume to the little who began to chill a little.

"Huh… next the fountain… hum… in front of the hallway…" Said Youichi while pointing outside and looking straight in Natsume eyes. "With that freak feminine pheromone guy Alice" Continued pointing outside the window with a kind of disgust look.

"They were talking."

"Do you know what they were talking about?" Asked once more Natsume who seemed to be really concerned.

"Hum… no I don't know…" He tried hard to remember the scene with his head up and a finger on his lower lip. "I don't know. I just saw them and passed though them; they didn't see me because I was behind them." Continued with the same position.

Youichi tried hard to remember every fragment of the scene but something was missing, which was stucked in his head but couldn't remember it carefully or so was not sure about it.

Then Natsume realized it. He just patted the little boy head with a don't-try-hard-if-you-remember-it look (or it was don't-worry-about-it look, it's the same).

Youichi looked at his onii-chan when he was about to nodded and smiled, he suddenly blinked and jumped twice or three times and shouted. (A.N : he's on Natsume lap when he did that)

"But she was weird…"

Everyone was now back to their selfmode and looked at the little boy with some surprise look and wondering look.

"What do you mean by weird?" Askd Natsume after blinking to his sudden shouting and jumping.

"Yeah… we know that… she was already weird back there." Said the flying boy Alice while some student nodded to his remark. (forgot his name)

"So explain it to us, Youichi." Said Natsume before Youichi let out his demon to the student once more. He was looking really badly to the student.

(A.N: when I say badly it's really it, he wanna kill them all once a time… so scary… well just like Natsume in the second or third episode when he knew that Mikan took Ruka as a hostage )

He turned his head to face his onii-chan. He tried to remember what he saw about the girl.

"Well… she seemed to not be in her selfconscious… It's as if she wasn't in her body, as if there was not soul in. It was what I felt when I saw her awhile ago… and…"

He stopped to talk which made everyone curious and also unexpected for the minus description of their friend.

DROP

Tears... dropped his little cheeks.

Youichi started to cry which made everyone felt nervous, because if he cried so that means that… they could say hello to the hell and… demon, once more. It was too late to escape since they were to close to the little spirit caster. They closed their eyes and waited for the chaos scene.

3…

2…

1…

Nothing. There was nothing, no demon, no scream, no… cry.

But little chuckle and choked tears.

They all looked at what had happened when they saw Natsume… hugged (yeah hugged like a father and son, so cute.) the little boy in his arms. It was unexpected from the famous coldest emotionless dangerous Cat fire Alice boy. (A.N: I know it's really long but wanna do it because… it's pretty funny. plus its nonsense)

SNAP… FLASH… CLASH… CLACK…

Everyone blinked and turned their head to source of it, even Natsume and Youichi. Ruka, him, just closed his eyes and had a I-knew-she-was-about-to-do-it smile, or so it was a thinking.

It was Hotaru. She was holding a camera and had an evil smile and her eyes showed money and a… famous I'm-going-to-be-rich look. (so typical of her)

Everyone sweatdropped by her action, especially in this kind of situation, and their head turned immediately to see what was the reaction of the target. To their thinking, normally Natsume would have been really unhappy and wanted to throw a fire ball. But to their surprise, it didn't happen. He just looked at her, who had always her evil smile, and with his famous cool attitude and emotionless look, which turned to a I-want-to-kill-you-now-but-something-say-to-me-to-not-doing-it-now look. So everyone turned to the opposite side to see the girl in question. She had also one of these look : if-what-?-just-try-to-kill-me-and-you'll-regret-all-your-life-no-SHE-wont-forgive-you-easily look and her smile had turned to a smirked really... scary. Once again all eyes turned to... well it's was a talking by looking between these two if you want... he had now a that-is-why-i-said-that-something-didnt-want-me-to-do-so look and beginning to get on his nerves.

Everyone began to sweat drop by this... talking which seemed like they were really talking loudly, and some tried to figure out the meaning of the word sheAnd here we go again for a verbal war without tone but look. She continued to talkor so argue with him: hum-seems-that-you-like-her-a-lot-for-proceeding-to-it look, this time. Here also everyone had a puzzled on them for this time the word 'like'.

Something smelt really... burning... no the room began to be heat, and all of them were trying to keep their body cool down. And so the heat began to down a little.

It seemed that Natsume had begun to be had taken back his coolest attitude. We'll-see-about-it-later-ok look was the ultimate look he had. And it made a mixed of Hotaru's smiles, a demonic smile with a grin. Her glare also turned to an ok-we'll-do-it-later look.

She then put her camera in her bag and turned to her target with a malicious smile.

A chuckle was heard. (no this kind of laugh but sound like more to a cry) And the entire stare was over a cute crying boy. He had more tears than before and his eyes were all red. Nobody understood it. Something was sure, it wasn't their fault.

"Youichi what's wrong?" Asked a sweetly Ruka, while approaching him and patted his head, with a concerned look. "why are you crying all of the sudden?"

"She… she… huh" He cried even more and more loudly than before.

"Youichi… what's wrong? Tell us what did you see there?"

This time, it's Natsume who patted his back and tried to calm down the little boy but wasn't been able. So here entered a suggestion. (interesting)

"If he can't tell us what he saw, we have someone who could do so?"

It was Hotaru's voice and suggestion. All of them looked at each other then suddenly turned to a boy who had a small smile and sweated. (A.N: I don't know why)

"Ok, ok, ok, I'll do it."

It was Kokororomi, his alice is Reading Mind and it bothered a LOT of people, specially a raven coloured hair boy. He took a deep breath and concentrated to his target mind.

"Hehehehe… seems that I can't do it if he cried loudly and his feelings are mixed…" He scratched his back head.

Suddenly Koko saw something shine and sweatdropped and finally had fear. He saw the famous yet improved baka-gun of a certain raven haired girl who had a little light in her eyes, means that it didn't yet use.

"I… I… I try it again." Koko concentrated once again and this time, he backed off as if someone had pushed him violently. He fell over on the floor with a horrific look, a scared one. It was as if he saw a ghost or a scary movie. (A.N: that would be my case mode sweatdropped)

"So what did you see?" Asked everyone at the same time. They were all hoping that he'll say it but seemed that the Reading Mind Alice boy had here some difficulties to talk.

After a few moment of silence, Koko blinked and Youichi was calmed down. Koko was about to spill it out but was cut off by the little boy with a little voice.

"She wasn't anymore… Mikan" Said Youichi with some difficulties and accentuating on the brunette girl name.

Everyone was confused and didn't understand at all.

"Her face seemed to listen but…" Stopped Youichi and breathed.

"Her eyes showed darkness and nothing" Continued Koko.

"She had a small smile but…" Said Youichi.

"… inside her, it was chaotic…"

"… it was a devil …"

"…smile and her aura…"

"… was dark even more than…"

"… itself."

"And…" Youichi strated to cry when suddenly someone patted his head. It was Hotaru who looked at him with a sweet and comforting glare with a little rare smile on her lip which immediately stopped him to cry.

'Cute… her smile is pretty cute… and her look… her eye… dark big eye are really…and her lips…I want…WHAT WAS THAT FOR…' Thought someone.

(A.N: I wonder who was the thinking was XD mode BIG SMILE)

Everyone was too shocked to what they just saw that they even didn't see that she was holding her baka-gun and hit everyone with it, as to say you-didn't-see-anything-look. Each one had a bump, a BIIIIG one, on their forehead, except for Natsume, Youichi, Ruka and Koko, who was hiding under a table and other concentrated on a little boy.

"Youichi… we know that scared you but… we have to know what had happened to Mikan…do you understand?" Nodded youichi.

"So Youichi, What did you see?" Asked Hotaru with a sweet stone, merely monotone, while holding her baka gun.

"And… there was… IT…" He said it and cried loudly and letting out some demon and ghost out of him, which made everyone panicking to death. This time he couldn't stop to cry. He took refuge in Natsume arms who tried to stop him to cry.

"IT?" Everyone questioned themselves, who were all of them hiding under a desk and turned to Koko who seemed also even more confused than they did.

"Koko?" Called a pink haired girl.

"Huh… I… I don't know… I don't know anything about it…" Said a panicky Koko while waving his arms in all the direction, showing that he really didn't know anything.

Everyone was looking at each other and didn't know what to do now. There was confusing, panicking, questioning and crying look in all the student face of the class B. And also muttering was heard all over the classroom, and the silence come back once more and staring at each other was really uncomfortable to bear for everyone.

All eyes were now on a little boy face who was crying and breathed really hardly.

'What have you seen back there for making you cry like that, Youichi?' Thought everyone looking the little boy.

"Koko…" Said Hotaru breaking the silence. "during the class, did you try to read her mind?"

Everyone was now tense while looking at the Reader Ming Alice boy.

He crossed his arms. After he put his fingers on his temples trying hard to remember and suddenly he tapped his right hand on his palm. He didn't say anything yet and it makes anyone nervous, even the two famous coldest and emotionless Alice students.

"No." Said Koko with a 'stupid' smile and scratched his head.

His answer made everyone fell down anime style. And with that we could clearly see behind them the falling students flaming eye from a certain raven haired girl, who had a big – BIG Enormous Gigantic Shinny Baka Gun, and a certain raven coloured hair boy, who was surrounding by some fire little ball which grown each time, but not the usual colour but a red colour as the blood, and had a BIG one on his palm. They were about to kill the poor guy sweating all over with an anxious smile, his eyes reflecting the two BIG weapons in the two side of him.

(A.N: when I say BIG Enormous Gigantic Shinny it's… one hundred time more big than the usual one; and for the fire caster… it's not what you think, it's about the size of a… BIG dog XD this time I exaggerate a lot. )

When Koko saw them with their 'Dangerous' Weapon, and heard their 'little (even if it isn't that little) Murderous' mind, he just fell down, backed to the wall with terror and a please-God-help-me look and a please-don't-kill-me-i-want-to-live-some-more-time-i-havent-yet-taste-my-time-with-my-girlfriend-yet look, while others just backed off the three of them.

"AAAAAAAHItsnotmyfaultIdidnthearanythingeitherseehermindbecausetherewerenothingexceptdarknessasiftherewerenothinginhereithersouloflifeall IcouldhearwasthethoughtofeveryoneherebutevenifItryhardIwillnotbeabletohearanythingitwastotallydarkandUNLIVING." Shouted Koko out of his lung and without breathing.

(here the right script: "AAAAAAAH… It's not my fault… I didn't hear anything either see her mind because there was nothing… except darkness… as if there were nothing in her either soul or life… all I could hear was the thought of everyone here but… even if I try hard… I will not be able to hear anything… it was totally dark… and UNLIVING")

Koko closed his eyes waiting for a BIG harm on his skin from the fire caster and a BIG missile from the genius inventor Alice. He opened his right eye to see why there wasn't any impact, and saw that everyone were even more tense, nervous, confused, anxious and concerned, even the Natsume's and Ruka's Fangirl. Everyone was looking at each other and tried to figure out the situation.

'Why couldn't Koko read her mind? And what is the meaning of 'this'?' It was what everyone was thinking about and asking themselves.


Review please...
