Disclaimer: I don't own Gakuen Alice or it's character i only own the story line

A raven haired boy was laying on the couch in the living room with a manga across his face. He was Natsume Hyuuga. When Natsume heard the door being opened and closed he took the manga of his face and threw it on the coffee table. He looked at the boy who had just come through the door with his deep crimson eyes. It was Youichi with a slight frown on his face.

"No luck Youichi?" He asked though already knowing the answer he reached for his manga again on the coffee table.

"Nope" Youichi said as he walked past the boy and into his own room.

After a couple minutes the door was opened again and Usagi walked in with a big smile on his face.

"What with the smile kid?" Natsume said though this time not removing the manga from his face but merely looking out the side of his eye.

"You talked to Youichi earlier I guess" Usagi said, still with a big smile plastered on his face.

"Yeah..." Natsume said and judging by his tone he was getting annoyed.

"Well, don't pay any attention to him. She passed with flying colors, though she did say some unusual things ... Oh well!" Usagi said happily before walking off.

"What did she say?" Natsume asked acting like he couldn't care less or maybe he didn't, who knows?

"Secret!" Usagi yelled back at him before disappearing into his room.

The manga slid of Natsume's face as he growled at the little boy's response to his question.

He hated not getting his way.

Not five minutes later the door opened for the third time revealing Persona, Tsubasa and Ruka. Any other time Natsume would be downright pissed at the interruption of his peace and quiet but this time he had something he wanted to know.

"So you guys care to explain why I'm getting contradictory information from the little ones?" Natsume asked as if nonplussed about it. He was still laying on the couch but he had removed the manga from his face before their just ignored him and his question as he walked past him into his room. Natsume just rolled his eyes at this as he expected this action from Persona. Tsubasa sat down on the couch opposite the one Natsume was sitting on whilst Ruka went to the fridge and grabbed 3 soda for them. Once Ruka had handed out the sodas he took his seat next to Natsume.

"Well," Natsume said making sure his previous question hadn't been forgotten before opening his can of soda and taking a gulp.

"What are you talking about dearest Natsume?" Tsubasa said in a sickeningly sweet tone after finishing his mouthful of soda. This just caused Natsume to glare at him.

"Well, you know Youichi, he er ... takes things at face value ... And he didn't hear what Usagi heard ... hehe" Ruka said quickly to try to stop the glaring contest in the making.

"Whatever, so what did she say? And what's her name?" Natsume replied after taking his eyes of Tsubasa and turning to Ruka, knowing who he was going to get the information he wanted off.

"Well-"

"If you wanted to know you should have come!" Tsubasa said cutting off whilst saving an unsteady and nervous Ruka.

"You know damn well know why I refuse to have anything to do with this place!" Natsume hissed.

"No, I'm not sure I do. Why is that again?" Tsubasa said innocently pushing Natsume over the edge.

"Piss off Tsubasa! We all have our own pasts we're running from, you know that!" Tsubasa furrowed his eyebrows at this statement.

"Well, that would be okay if you actually admitted to being haunted by the past, but according to you; you just up and left this place. Nothing that terrible ever happened."

"Did you ever stop to think that maybe what I said is true?"

"Bullshit! Other than the younger two, you were the last one to join this group. When we met you, you were 9, a kid, and yet already broken. Don't you dare tell me nothing happened! I know for sure something happened in your past, in this place. Worst, it's still eating you up inside, and yet you refuse to even admit it. Sure we all have things eating us up inside but at least we can accept it!" Tsubasa blurted out, half angry, half disappointed.

There was silence, Tsubasa and Ruka were looking at Natsume as he tried his hardest to avoid their stares. After a few moments of this Natsume then silently got up and walked to his room leaving the other two in shock of how their words effected him so.

"You weren't wrong, he was broken and whilst he may not look it all you have to do it look beneath the surface and he is still completely broken. The worst part is no matter how hard we try it can't be us to put the pieces back together." Ruka whispered so quietly Tsubasa had to strain to make out what he was saying.

"No, the worst part is whoever did this to him, whoever broke him, he is doing this for them." Tsubasa replied.

"Yeah, I know we all have things that keep us up at night but he's in the worst shape of all of us, I just hope it isn't too late for him ...?"

As soon as Natsume had closed his door he picked up the closest thing and threw it as hard as he could against the wall in anger. He was pissed. How dare they talk about his past as if they have a clue?

The worst part is that they were right.

Right now all he could think about was her.

Her Screaming.

Her Tears.

Her Fear.

"GET OUT! LEAVE ME ALONE! DON'T HURT ME!"

"YOU MONSTER!"

Hope you enjoyed and isn't to confusing to follow :D
