More reviews!!! *Smile* Also, before we go into this story, if you would like to see a drawing of Ivumei, please tell me. I'm not the best drawer, but I can try. Now, enjoy!

Mikan's POV

"Ivumei!!" I yelled, running towards her. All of a sudden, she had collapsed. I was worried. Then, Narumi-sensei appeared.

"Hello, Mikan!" he greeted me, "Don't worry, everything is under control." A security guard carried Ivumei away. She seemed very limp in his arms, like a broken doll. I got scared.

"Narumi-sensei, can I go with her to the hospital?" I pleaded. He shook his head apologetically.

"Sorry, but we have to make sure she is going to be alright first. You can visit her afterwards, though," he said cheerfully. I nodded hesitantly.

"Now, go return to gym and have fun." Narumi finished and he and the security guard walked away with Ivumei. I sat down by Hotaru and plastered a smile on my face, but something didn't feel right.

Hotaru's POV

Mikan sat down by me with a fake smile on her face. I sighed.

"Baka. If you're going to pretend to be happy, do it better," I said. She protested, but then I shot her with my baka gun favorite invention to use on Mikan.

"If you're worried about her, then I can arrange for you to see her,"

I pulled out my firefly spy camara. Mikan smiled for real.

"HOTARU, YOU'RE SO NICE!!" she yelled. She started to hug me, but then I pointed the gun at her. Mikan backed away. I turned on the fly and took out the remote control. I guided it to hospital and saw Narumi and the guard. I followed them with the firefly until they put her in a room. Settling on the window, I put down the remote control and Mikan and I watched. Narumi and the guard left. For a while there was nothing. Mikan started squirming. I flicked her. Suddenly, Persona entered the room.

Ivumei's POV

I started to wake up. Where am I? Looking up, I gasped. Okay, maybe it was a bit of a shriek, but you get the idea. A man with a white mask and black coat stood in front of me, smirking.

"Well, you finally came about," he said. He sat down on the chair next to my bed (wait, why was there a bed?) and looked at me in the eye. Well, I think he did, it was a bit hard to tell with the mask.

"Now, why did you collapse?" he asked. I did not trust him. Call it intuition (or common sense), but he felt like something sinister.

"I don't know," I lied, staring at him eye to eye. I could play this game, too. His mouth hardened.

"Don't kid around with me. We know you used your Alice. But it was different than the Alice you showed us," he smiled sarcastically, "Now, how about the truth."

I shook my head.

"I don't know why I collapsed and that's the end of it," I said. He glared at me. This time I could definitely tell through the mask that his eyes were saying, 'Destroy her'. I began to get worried.

"Then you wouldn't mind wearing this would you?" he said, showing me a mask. What…the…heck. A mask. Am I going to some masquerade ball? It looked kind of like a dragon's face, though would only cover my eyes. Suddenly, without a word, he put it on me. I pushed him away and tried to take it off. It was stuck.

"What did you do?!" I shouted. He stood up and walked over to the door.

"If you ever use your Alice, it will shock you and we will know," he said, "You know, you could have avoided this by telling the truth about your Alice. Maybe the part that it's a lot stronger than you showed us." He left. Oh my god. I am so dead now. He found out. How I didn't know.

"Sorry, Mom," I whispered, looking down. A sudden movement in the corner of my eyes caused me to turn. A firefly flew out the window.

Mikan's POV

I couldn't believe it. Why did Persona talk to Ivumei and put a mask on her. We couldn't hear them except for when she yelled at Persona. I found myself wondering, who exactly is Ivumei? Hotaru and I shared a look. It was time to find out the answer from Ivumei herself.

Yes, I know this is chapter is short, but this is a good cliffhanger! Please review and give opinions. I want to know if I'm staying true to the essence of Gakuen Alice. Thanks!!
