Chapter 10 The play!
It was another oh-so-ordinary day at Alice Academy. Well, a brunette seems to be back on her daily routines.
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!I'M LATE!!!" Mikan shouted while running at the hallway. As usual she bumps to the famous Kuro Neko.
"Watch we're you're going Polkadots or should I say tangerines." Natsume said teasingly.
"Natsume Pervert!!! Oh I forgot I'm going to be late. Jin-Jin will surely send me to detention." She panicked and began running around like an idiot. Natsume tripped her and Mikan fell on the ground.
"Ouch…Why did you do that?" she shouted angrily then she remembers something, "I'm going to be late and it's your entire fault."
"Idiot, its 30 minutes before the class starts and besides that Naru is our first period."
"And why are you going on the other way? You're planning to skip class?"
"It's none of your business." He said and started to walk away.
"Yes it is, now let's go or we will be late for class."
"I said I'm not going." He said firmly.
"Yes you are!"
"I said No, and that's final."
"Yes, you will go!"
"Fine, just stop bugging me."
"Yay!!!" she squealed and began jumping up and down.
Natsume began to walk to go their classroom ignoring her. Mikan notice that he already left.
"Natsume-kun, wait for me!" she shouted while running after him.
When she reaches their class she greeted everyone.
"Ohayo minna-san"
"Ohayo Mikan-chan!" they greeted back.
'That pervert he just left me there but I'm still glad that he didn't skip Narumi-sensei's class.' She thought happily and went to her seat.
She spotted her bestfriend and greets her, "Ohayo Hotaru!"
Then Mr. Narumi entered wearing a funny costume.
"Ohayo minna!" he greet cheerfully.
"Ohayo Narumi-sensei!" some of them greet back.
"Hope you had plenty of rest last week, cause this week we'll be very busy!"
"What do you mean by that sensei?" one of the students asked.
Mr. Narumi had a sly smile on his face. Some have a bad feeling about this and some are excited.
"We're going to have a play!" he shouted with joy.
The class started chatting with each other, all excited well, except for three Natsume, Hotaru and Ruka (isn't it obvious?).
"But what for sensei?" a student asked.
"Well nothing special, we decided that you need more bonding moments and that's why we're having a play."
'What a nonsense reason' some of them thought.
"Narumi-sensei when will it be held?" Mikan asked excitedly.
"Well, I think it will be held two weeks from now. It means that we have two weeks to prepare.
"Who will be going to watch us?" Sumire asked.
"The whole academy will watch that's why we all need to do our best!"
"So what will be the story of our play?" Anna asked.
"Well as the director and your adviser I wrote a classis tale entitled…" then he write on the board: THE WILD SWANS.
"Anyway the play will be lead by the SA class."
"You mean Tsubasa-sempai and the others will help us?" Mikan asked happily.
"Yes. Seems like everyone's excited so we will start with the casting now. We will have a draw lots."
Then Tsubasa, Misaki, Tono and the other SA students arrive, well Youichi with some girl the same age as him and Nobara are also there as well as Otanashi.
"Sensei we're now here. Some of us will help with the props, clothes and other things we need and some will act." Tsubasa said.
"That's right. Same for our class." He told his students and he divided the class into two.
"This group will be included in the play" he said pointing to the group where Mikan and the others are, "and this group should help with the props" he continued pointing at the other group.
"Well those who will act line up here and those that are assigned for the props discuss what you need outside."
He took a bowl and it contains rolled papers written inside are the roles. Those who will act line up and each of them get a paper.

Mikan was finding Natsume because Mr. Narumi they need to practice together.
"Where could Natsume be?" she asked herself and she remember that he's always at the Sakura Tree. She run as fast as she could until she reach the place.
"Natsume!!!" she shouted while approaching him.
"What do you need?"
"Oh well, Narumi-sensei said that we need to practice together."
"Whatever."
"Have you read your script?"
"Hn." He just replied without looking at her.
"Okay, oh well I think I should read it first." Then she began reading her script.
"Glad that I don't have so many lines here." She said to herself.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Narrator #1: That night, Caroline dreamed of a mysterious wizard flying above her on a leaf.
Wizard Andrew: I'm Andrew a wizard from a far-away place. I know you want to save your brothers. You can break the spell if you are prepared to suffer. You must collect stinging nettles from a graveyard and knit eleven shirts from their soft flax. When you have finished them all, throw them over your brothers and the spell will be broken. But beware – until you are finished you must not laugh or speak even a single thing.
Princess Caroline: I don't care! I'll do anything to save my brothers.
Narrator #2: When Princess Caroline awoke, it was morning and her brothers had gone. On the floor beside her lay a huge pile of sharp nettles.
Princess Caroline: (started to knit the shirts by making flax using her hands)
Narrator #3: She set to work at once. By the time princes returned to the cave, they found Princess Caroline knitting a curious garment. Her hands were scratched and her fingers were blistered from making the flax.
Prince Sebastian: What are you doing?
Narrator #1: Princess Caroline could say nothing.
Prince Sebastian: (Tears started to fall in his eyes as he bent over his sister to watch her work)
Narrator #2: The tears spilled onto her fingers, and at once the blisters disappeared.
Princess Caroline: (just smiled at him gracefully, but dared not to speak or laugh)
VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV
"Don't read it aloud. You're making me deaf." He said irritated and started to walk off.
Mikan just stare at his retreating figure and smile.
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
The Next Day…
Narrator #1: When Caroline turned fifteen, the king decided to send for her.
Narrator #2: The queen pretends to welcome her kindly.
Queen Marlene: Come my dear, you must get ready to your father.
Princess Caroline: Yes mother. Thanks for welcoming me.
Narrator #3: While Caroline undressed for her bath, the queen used her magic to summon three huge toads.
Narrator #1: She picked them up, one by one, and gave each a kiss and command.
Queen Marlene: I want you to sit on Caroline's head and make her stupid. You shall lie near her heart and harden it, and you shall hop on her forehead and make her ugly.
Narrator #2: Then she threw the toads into the bath, and soon the water turned into a sickly green.
Narrator #3: Caroline's innocence and sweetness broke the witch's spell. The toads turned into scarlet poppies, and the water became clear as crystal.
Narrator #3: The queen flew into a rage. She grabbed the innocent girl, rubbed the walnut juice on her face, and tied knots in her hair.
Narrator #1: When she appeared before the king, he was shocked and angry.
King Eric: This child is not my daughter!
Princess Caroline: Father it's me! I'm Caroline your daughter! (crying)
Queen Marlene: Ha! A dirty wretch who's after your gold!
King Eric: Take her away!
"Cut! Well that's enough, you're all good. You were able to show all the emotions in each line." Mr. Narumi said, "Well it's time for a 30 minute break." He said then all of them went to the cafeteria to have a break.
They spend the whole two weeks like that. They went practicing for their play while having fun at the same time.
