Chapter 8: Enemies

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

Recap:

"Good morning everyone!" Narumi-sensei said. Today he was wearing a purple frilly robe, and his hair was in a ponytail held up with a purple bow.

"Good morning Narumi-sensei~~" replied Mikan.

"Good morning Mikan-chan~~~" Narumi said, "Today we have a new student from America!"

Everyone started whispering. The girls hoped it was a boy, while the boys hoped it was a girl. Narumi clapped twice.

"As I said we have a new student from America, and his name is Thomas Hayes," Narumi said. Nayomi stood up and slammed her hands on her desk. She walked over and opened a window. Before she jumped out she said, "Tell him I'll be in the lawn outside the window." Then she jumped out. She landed neatly on the branch she was aiming for and waited there.

In the classroom everyone was so surprised they started to whisper. A boy with dark brown hair and navy blue eyes came in.

"Where is she?" he asked. The whole class pointed to the open window. He went over and jumped out. He landed on the grass. Mikan, Ruka and Natsume stood up and left, but not out the window. They hurried to see what was going on. When they reached the lawn, they saw Thomas looking around.

"Nayomi Hatoko where are you!" he yelled.

"Not under you that's for sure," Nayomi said. She was laying down on a branch, and seemed very relaxed.

"Still scared to climb trees Thomas?" she jeered.

"Get down here, so we can settle this like men!" he yelled back.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not a man," she said. He shot a stream of water going so fast it cut the tree she was on, but before it could fall, she jumped and landed neatly on the branch. They did this over and over until there were only two trees left around them. The one Nayomi was on was tall and the trunk was thick. The other tree was a little shorter and a little wider. This time Thomas cut both trees at once. Nayomi just jumped and landed on the ground.

"I know all your tricks Thomas," she said.

"Then if you know all my tricks, quit the tree climbing and fight."

"Fine."

Nayomi shot a dozen lightning bolts at him, but he blocked them all with his water except one. It hit him square in the nose. By now the whole class had come out to watch.

"Murderer! Are you going to kill me like how you killed them?" Thomas asked.

"I didn't kill them!" Nayomi yelled. Thomas shot a stream of water at her, but Nayomi dodged neatly to the side.

"For the last time I didn't kill them! Stop trying to avenge their death by killing me, when I didn't kill them!" Nayomi yelled. She was on he verge of tears, but she held them back. She needed to be strong.

"What are you guys talking about?" asked Narumi.

"Stay out of the way Gaylord!" Thomas yelled back. He shot at least 30 streams of water, but Nayomi dodged all of them, not even breaking a sweat. On the other hand, Thomas was panting hard. Naomi noticed this, and decided to end it. She shot one huge lightning bolt about a centimeter in front of Thomas. It made a huge explosion and Thomas flew towards the building and landed hard against the wall of the school. Nayomi walked toward him, grabbed his collar, and said in a low, frightening voice, "For the last time, Thomas Hayes, I didn't kill them." She threw him down and walked away. Natstume, Ruka, Hotaru, and Mikan followed Nayomi, while everyone else crowded around Thomas. After seeing he was okay, Anna, Nonoko, and Koko headed to the direction Nayomi left.

Nayomi headed towards the Northern Forest. She stopped at Bear's house.

"Bear are you here?" she asked. Bear came out and ran to Nayomi. He jumped and hugged her. She started to laugh.

"Bear, how are you?" Bear just hugged her more, and Nayomi took it as a "I'm fine, thanks for visiting."

Meanwhile, as Natsume, Ruka, Hotaru, and Mikan approached Bear's house, they all stopped dead in their tracks. Hotaru pulled out her Baka cannon, and Natsume, Ruka, and Mikan hid behind a bush.

"Oh… Hotaru. And Mikan, Natsume, and Ruka," Nayomi said. "Why are you guys hiding behind a bush?" She looked at Bear and saw him "glaring" at them.

"Bear. Have you been being mean to your friends?" Nayomi asked.

Bear hung his head low.

"You have to be nice to your friends. Say sorry okay?"

Bear faced the group in the bushes and nodded his head and "glared" at them.

"Don't worry you can come out of the bushes now you guys," Nayomi said.

The group reluctantly stepped out of the bushes. Hotaru still had her Baka cannon ready to shoot just in case.

"How do you know Mr. Bear Nayomi?" Mikan asked.

"I'm Kaname's cousin," she replied. Everyone was really surprised.

"Cousin?" Natsume said.

"Yeah."

"How come I didn't know of this?" Natsume asked.

"Because you never asked," she replied. She patted Bear on the head.

"I don't see the resemblance," Hotaru said. She slowly put her Baka cannon down. Nayomi laughed. There was a rustle in the leaves and Tsubasa appeared.

"Tsubasa-senpai~~" Mikan jumped into his arms.

"Hi Mikan," He said, "Not getting beat up by Bear today?" Nayomi walked towards him holding Bear.

He pointed at Bear, "How'd you make him so that he would let you hold him?" He was really surprised.

Nayomi laughed, "I'm Kaneme's cousin."

"You're his… cousin?" He asked.

"No resemblance, right?" said Hotaru.

"Anyway, I came because I heard that you had this giant fight with a new student, and after the fight headed here," Tsubasa said.

"Oh, yeah that's we followed you," Natsume told her.

"Supposedly, you and the new kid were fighting about you killing someone," said Tsubasa. Nayomi sighed and put Bear down.

"Let's go to someplace else, so that I can explain," Nayomi said, "Take care Bear, and don't be so mean to other people!"

They arrived at a clearing with a set of white tables and chairs.

"Now explain why the new student-"

"Thomas Hayes. His name is Thomas Hayes," Nayomi cut off Tsubasa.

"Okay, explain why Thomas accused you of killing someone," Tsubasa continued. Hotaru brought a device and put it on Nayomi's head.

"This invention projects the image of a memory or something, so that we can see what the person is thinking," Hotaru said.

"Okay, so when I was in America, I went to stay away from Alice Academy. Since there is only one branch in America, and is a bigger country, it made it easier to run away from Alice Academy. There are a lot of thugs and bad people in America. One day I saw Thomas and his parents were surrounded by men with guns. One of the men said, 'Let us get the boy and nobody will get hurt.' I jumped into the center and surrounded us with a wall of lightning. I made a small opening in the circle lightning. 'Hurry and go. I'll handle them here,' I told them. They ran, but the men stopped them. I shot the men in their way with lightning bolts. 'Hurry and go!' I told them again. They ran away. 'I'm your opponent now.' I told the men. They captured me and took me to Alice Academy. I was put into the Dangerous Abilities Class immediately."

"Wait, you didn't tell me that you were put into Alice Academy when you were in America," said Natsume.

"Well, what you don't know won't hurt you," Nayomi replied, "Anyway let me continue. So, after about 2 weeks since I was in the Academy, Thomas came to our class. He was also put into the Dangerous Abilities Class. Then one day on one of my missions I saw his parents being attacked by the AAO. I ran by them and surrounded us with lightning so that no one could shoot at us. I made a small opening in which his parents could escape through. I someone on top of a building pointing a gun at the opening. I knew they were going to shoot once one of his parents stepped out. When his parents were about to go out, I saw the man on the building getting ready to shoot. I quickly closed the opening, but they ran through and died. After that, Thomas blamed me for killing his parents and we fought all the time. Everyone in the school blamed me also. No one believed that I was trying to protect them. I couldn't take it anymore and decided to move to Japan. And now I'm here."

"Oh… That's tough," Ruka said.

"That's why you came back to Japan so quickly," said Natsume.

"Yeah… There were rumors going around that you killed your dad too," Tsubasa told them.

"I didn't kill him. He committed suicide," Nayomi replied, "People think I killed him, since he used lightning to suicide. We both had the same Alice."

"Oh… So that's why people think you killed your dad," Nonoko said.

"Actually a lot of people were afraid of talking to you. Nonoko and I felt the same way," Anna admitted.

Nayomi stood up, "Anyway you guys should stop hanging around me. Now that Thomas is here, it's too dangerous for any of you to be near me. He would do anything to hurt me, even kill my friends."

This was a long chapter... -_-
