Chapter 6: Bullied

Disclaimer: I do not own Gakuen Alice. I can wish right?

Recap:

"After that incident with the girls, Nayomi only opened up to us, and didn't let anyone near her," explained Natsume.

"She always isolated herself," Ruka said.

"That's why you think that I could help her," Mikan said. Ruka and Natsume both nodded.

Nayomi headed towards the Northern Forest. She spotted a dark figure.

"Persona. What do you want?" asked Nayomi.

Persona never appeared, and Nayomi walked back to her dorm. She slipped into her pajamas, then went to bed.

The girls snickered and started to corner Nayomi. They started to throw raw eggs at her. She used her arms to cover her face. Her uniform got covered in eggs and she couldn't count how many pieces of eggshell was in her hair. She ran to the bathroom to clean up. When she went to class late, she saw the girls who threw eggs at her snicker.

"Nayomi!" Someone was shaking her. When she opened her eyes, she saw Ruka.

"Ruka... How'd you get in here?" she asked.

"You're door was open. I thought it was weird, and I found you covered in eggs."

Nayomi stood up and started crying. She ran to her bathroom and cleaned herself up. When she came out Natsume and Mikan were in her room too.

"I never should have come. Never!" yelled Nayomi. She broke down.

"Nayo-" started Natsume, but she cut him off.

"SHUT UP! JUST SHUT UP!" she yelled. She quickly got changed in the bathroom and ran out of her room.

I never should have come! Never! What was I thinking! thought Nayomi.

Nayomi ran into Seaweed-hair and a few other girls in the hallway.

"Hey look girls. She finally found her place in this school," snickered Sumire.

Nayomi backed up, and the girls pushed her into an open closest.

This is a living nightmare. thought Nayomi.

Nayomi struck lightning bolts at their feet and quickly ran out. She headed towards the Northern Forest, when she heard footsteps.

I'll get to the Northern Forest by jumping onto the branches instead. Nayomi thought.

She jumped and cleanly landed on a branch. She jumped from branch to branch quickly and quietly. She slowed down and needed a break, so she rested on the branch.

"Damnit! Where is she?" someone yelled, "Ruka did you find her yet?"

"Not yet Natsume!" Ruka yelled back. Nayomi stayed as still as possible on the tree branch.

"Natsume! Have you found her yet?" another person yelled, but it wasn't Ruka. It sounded like Mikan.

"No!" Natsume replied back.

I'm right here... thought Nayomi. For some reason she didn't want to blow her cover. Sumire started to run towards Ruka.

"Ruka-kun! Did you find her yet?" Sumire asked.

Why is she looking for me? She's the one who tried to push me into the closest. Probably the one who dumped eggs on me while I was sleeping too. Nayomi thought.

"Hey Natsume! I think she's on the branches of the trees!" someone yelled. It was Koko, the boy with Mind-reading Alice.

"Damnit," Nayomi muttered. She quickly jumped from branch to branch away from the search party. She just wanted to be alone right now. There was a rustle in the leaves of the tree across from the tree she was on. Nayomi jumped down and started running.

"Nayomi!"

"Nayomi!" Someone was shouting for her, but she didn't turn back. She just kept on running. As she ran, tears formed in her eyes.

I can't take it anymore! All the girls bullying me just because I'm friends with Natsume. What's wrong with that?

All of sudden something stopped her, and she was lifted from the ground. Mochiage found her and used his Alice to stop her.

"Hey Natsume! I found her!" he yelled.

"Let me down!" And with that she struck at least 15 lightning bolts at him. She was immediately let go and landed on her stomach. It hurt like crazy.

Man I just had a drop from like 20 feet in the air. Nayomi got up and started running again, only to be surrounded by a group of girls. All of them were snickering and jeering. Nayomi quickly made a wall of lightning around herself, and sat down, refusing to move.

At least I'm protecting myself now.

Let's switch scenes to where Natsume is!:)

Natsume heard Mochiage saying he found her. He started running towards the yell, but when he got there Mochiage was laying on the ground, clearly unconscious. A little ahead, he saw a group of girls in a crowd surrounding a circle of... lightning? There was only one person he knew could do that, Nayomi. He heard the girls jeering, "Scared?" Another asked, "Hey Sumire what should we do with this girl?" "Yeah what should we do? She needs to learn her place in this academy." His eyes widened, and realized that what happened at their old school was happening now.

"Get out of the way!" he yelled. "Anyone who touches her will be burned."

All the girls backed away from the circle of lightning, but Sumire said, "Aw… Natsume-kun. You don't want to protect her, do you?"

"Yes, I do. I know that you guys tried to lock her in a closest and dumped eggs on her while she was sleeping."

Sumire glared at the lightning and walked away followed by a bunch of girls.

"Nayomi," Natsume said, "It's alright they're gone. It's just me."

"Go away." The wall of lightning became bigger.

"Nayomi, you're going to hurt yourself."

"Oh… And like you don't hurt yourself either! Hypocrite!"

"Nayomi calm down…" Natsume's attempt to calm her down was useless.

"HOW COULD I CALM DOWN! I'M SICK AND TIRED OF PEOPLE BULLYING ME JUST BECAUSE OF WHO I AM!"

"Nayomi…"

"Just go a-" all of a sudden the lightning disappeared, and Nayomi started coughing violently.

"Nayomi!" The coughing continued. Natsume carried her and rushed towards the hostpital.
