Chapter 2

Natsume...Natsume...Gomene...I'm..Really...So-

Natsume sat up sweating, he was dreaming about that girl again. These days he was having nightmares about a girl apologizing to him. He saw this girl's image before, she has a brown eyes and her hair was braided, and was rested on it's shoulder.

She was crying in front of him, and all he can see was pitch black everywhere. Somehow she got the familiar feeling that he knows that girl, and how her voice was so nostalgic for him to hear.

"Damn, Why am I having nightmares this days...Tch!" He irritatedly mumbled as he lay down and tried to sleep again, but his spirit was not that tired. Because of the sudden woke, he can't get himself to sleep nicely again.

He ruffle his hair until it was all messed up. He was trying to maintain his calm since he can't let his emotion get over him, anger is the first thing he needs to avoid. Since his power is Fire.

He stood up and went out of the window. He can't sneak out using the door because around 10:00 P.M, there are already Body guards securing the door in case someone tries to sneak in or sneak out.

Natsume sat upon the Sakura Tree. Every night, he went up there and do nothing but to stare at the shining stars. And then again, the image of the girl he was dreaming suddenly popped out of his mind. He clenched his fists as he remembered how sad the girl was while crying in front of him. Apologizing for something he doesn't know what he did that made her apologize to him like that.

Until hours has passed Natsume was still awoke in the top of the Sakura tree. Something was definitely wrong tonight, even though he had the same nightmares each day, but why is it that this time, it's a little bit difference. Like something is about to happen.

He took out a necklace that was kept in inside of his T-shirt. It was a letter 'M' Even himself doesn't know what it means but, surely it feels precious to him. Everyday, he wears that necklace for his safety. He feels safe whenever he wears it on.

"Who is this girl I've been dreaming about?" He continued on with his voice sounded desperate and was willing to know what he needs to know.

His mind was all mussed up with questions like: Why does he feel so sad whenever he hears that girl's voice? Why does his chest hurt whenever he saw that girl showing him with a sad and lonely face? Why can't he tell who she is even though she looks familiar?

All of that was rolling over and over to his mind. Somehow...Something happened that made all of this situation so complicated, but he just can't point it out. He glance up once more at the stars and finally slide down the Sakura Tree and headed back to his dorm.

Hotaru was still awake, she was arranging her tool box. Somehow she had the feeling that she should arrange some things but, then again. She don't know why.

Some tools were already spread in the floor since she's arranging them in their proper tool boxes. And at the very deep part of the box. She touched something, it's shape is not a tool but a frame. She pulled it out and felt her chest started to hurt. She saw a brunette girl smiling at the picture.

How her smile made her relief, but why is her chest hurting? She was panting and can't hardly breath properly. Her vision was also turning blurred and the figures she was seeing was uncleared to her. She reached for her communication phone to contact Yuu, the more she moves the more she can feel the pain starting to affect her whole body.

Her eyes was getting heavier and heavier like she wants to close it. But she knows that once she closed it, she might not wake up for hours.

Once she went to her contacts she saw Ruka name on and immediately push the call button. Within minutes the call was answered.

"Hello?" A hint of high tone was heard from his voice. Since it's rare for Hotaru to call someone.

"Yuu? Please...Come...And Help..." She cough since she feels like her heart is being squeezed.

"HOTARU?! WHAT'S WRONG?! I'LL BE THERE AS SOON AS I CAN!" The call was ended while Hotaru rested at the floor. The pain was still there.

"This is bad..." She mumbled in her mind. Her vision was completely blurry, she can't see properly now. She looked at her side. "Sakura petals...?" She mumbled again as she saw Sakura petals flowing inside her room, the window was closed and she doesn't feel any wind.

But she looked at the door...But it was closed too, she weakly sat up and observed her surrounding. There was Sakura petals every where, it was dancing in the air.

"HOTARU?!" The voice came in rushing towards her. And right on time, Hotaru finally closed her eyes (Ruka catched her).

Deep inside her, she saw a girl...A brunette girl standing and smiling to her before she lost her conscious.

Ruka stood up immediately and carried Hotaru out of the her room. It took him some time before the guards finally let him in. He heard something fell on the ground. He glance towards it and saw a picture frame. With the same expression as Hotaru, his eyes widened.

Just like Hotaru and Natsume. He has a feeling that he knows the girl who was smiling in the picture- no a feeling that he knew that girl all along, they just can't remember her name.

Somewhere in Nowhere.

"Hmm...I misjudge this kids after all...But, no matter what you all do. Mikan Sakura is already Mine. No matter what you do, she will not return to all of you..."
