Dark Angel: M14G8

Chapter 7: A loss…part 2

ZUKI: This is the part two! Oh and BTW Thanks for all those who reviewed!

SV: At last, something to past time.

ZUKI: Uh, whatever. Well, this is the part two everyone! Some may be wondering that I should've connected them if I put up the second part that fast. Well I started the second part as soon as I can since the last chapter was boring and full with introductions only and I didn't connect it since I just had the idea at the last minute and I don't want to change the first one because it will take more time again so…that's the reason. Sorry if my drama here is not that good…since I lack the experience.

SV: Yeah and as she bores you more on her speeches, this airhead doesn't own GA or its characters.

ZUKI: Hey!


Recap

Youichi whispers but made it loud enough to be heard by Natsume, "Nee-chan, I feel strange something from him."

"Don't worry Youichi," Mikan pats his head.

Natsume thought, 'Yeah, there's something more about him than meets the eye.'

Hotaru stood up, "Mizuki, you owe me 1000 rabbits for sitting beside me."

Then, she goes to Mikan and said, "Mikan, be careful around him."

Mikan nods and stood up as well, "Who wants to go to central town?"

Yuu and the others agree while Natsume and Ruka were being drag by the inventor again.

Hiro goes towards them and asks, "What's central town?"

"Oh right, you're supposed to be my partner, well, central town is a shopping district where people sell Alice-made items, I could tour you around," Mikan offered.

"Thanks!" Hiro replied.

End of Recap


In central town, Mikan began her tour. They went from shop to shop since the two popular boys were dragged around by the inventor, they went along but the others got tired so they went back to the dorms earlier. They had a fun time except the mentioned persons. After going around, they eventually became tired so they went to rest by the fountain.

"That was fun, right Hotaru?" Mikan asked as Youichi climbs on her lap.

Hotaru replied, "Torturing the two was fun."

Mikan sweatdropped.

"Tch."

"Cruel. Oni." (Oni means demon)

"Thanks for touring me around Sakura-san," Hiro smiled.

"Nee-chan, I want howalon," Youichi said as he sat on Ruka's lap.

As soon as he said that, the water from the fountain grew out of control and splashed every one.

Ruka said, "Mikan, your water alice!"

"Huh? But it wasn't me!" Mikan shook her head.

Lamp posts and other benches unexpectedly lifted on air and attack them. Luckily they dodged in time.

"What's happening?" Hiro asked them.

"Mikan, your alice might be out of control," Natsume spoke.

"What are you talking about? I don't feel my alice getting out of control," Mikan retorted.

Hotaru asked, "Then, how do you explain this?"

More benches were thrown at them as they continue to dodge while Natsume tries burning them but no fire appears.

'What happened to my Alice? Is Mikan nullifying it?'

"I don't know!" Mikan said.

Then, a pet shop's window has been shattered, destroying cages and making the snakes escape. The snakes chased them with posts chasing them as well. Since, they were in panic; they accidentally split up into different directions. Ruka and Youichi were together, running away from one post and 2 snakes. He tried using his Animal Pheremone but it was no use.

'Why is my Alice not working? Mikan, what are you doing?'

With Natsume, three posts were chasing him and a snake.

'Kuso. Shimatta. My Alice is no use. That baka.'

With Mikan, five posts and three snakes were chasing her. She tries to fight and destroy it but her body seems to refuse.

'What am I going to do? Why won't my body react at all?'

'Is it an alice? I'll use nullifying then.'

She used her alice and all that was chasing her stopped.

'What alice was that? Anyways, I must find the others.'

With Hotaru, two posts and a snake were chasing her. She grabs her baka bazooka and shoots at them the snake slithered away. After knowing it has an effect, she continues to shoot until they were nothing chasing her.

'That idiot, she better be alright.'

Then, she started to look for others.

With Hiro, as soon as he was at a reasonable distance, the ones chasing him stopped. He smiles knowingly, "Ah, the games has started."

Unlucky for him, the inventor overheard him.

"I knew you were up to something," Hotaru glared at him.

Hiro smiles, "Imai-san, joining the festival I see."

"So you had a different alice all along," Hotaru said.

"Really? Why can I shape shift then?" Hiro turns into a wolf and turns back into human again.

Hotaru tooks out her baka gun and points it towards him, "Two alices? Just who the hell are you?"

Hiro's eyes started to glow purple and walks towards her, "You really want to save her, don't you?"

Hotaru shoots him but the bullet stopped and dropped on the floor. She trembled as she tries to shoot him again and again but same result happens.

Natsume met Ruka and Youichi as they continue to run away. Then, the posts and snakes stops.

"Hey guys! Are you alright?" Mikan asked.

Ruka nods while Youichi trembled in his arms.

Mikan reassured and carries Youichi, "Don't worry Youichi, it's over now."

"If it wasn't you, whose alice was that?" Natsume spoke.

Mikan and Ruka shrugs.

Mikan looked for Hotaru, "Where's Hotaru?"

"She's not with us even Hiro," Ruka answered.

"You mean she wasn't with you?" Mikan panicked.

Youichi shook his head.

Mikan started to run, "Come on!"

Then, they followed her.

Hotaru trembled as she dropped her gun. Hiro stopped in front of her, eyes still glowing. He touched at her left cheek.

"You want her to be human again right? You want her to be saved from the permanent darkness that she's in right? No matter what costs it," Hiro smiled mysteriously.

'Don't look at his eyes!' Hotaru thought.

She struggled to close her eyes but his alice seems took over her so she looked at her eyes with fright. It was no use at all. She was manipulated.

"Yes, I want to save her…It's all for Mikan," Hotaru spoke.

Hiro pats her head, "Yes all for Mikan…"

Hotaru stood by his side when they heard a voice.

"HOTARU!" Mikan yelled.

Hotaru looks at her but she looked like she was in a daze.

Hiro spoke, "Irasshaimase Sakura-san, Hyuuga-san, Nogi-san, and Hijiri-san."

"What did you do to Hotaru?" Mikan asked furiously.

Hiro shrugs, "I simply did what she wanted…"

Mikan gave a confused face.

He continued, "She wanted to save you, all because of you."

Mikan narrowed her eyes, "No! Hotaru, you don't have to! Don't get involved!"

"Sakura-san, she can't hear you, she's already under me, she's currently on the first stage now," Hiro said.

The sky started to darken.

"That's right Mikan, as long as I can save you, I can sacrifice myself," Hotaru smiled a ghostly smile.

A loud boom was heard

Hiro spoke once more, "If you really want to save her, you have to give up yourself by the Tokyo headquarters like a good kitten you are."

Another loud boom was heard.

Hotaru touches his shoulder and Hiro smiles, saying his last words before they disappear, "Do what you must do."

Mikan screamed and cried, "No! Hotaru! N-Not her!"

She looked above as if she was saying 'Why me? God, why me?' and the rain was released, as she continues to cry.

Natsume approaches her and puts a hand on her shoulder for comfort.

Mikan looks up and hugs and cries on Natsume, making him fall to the ground, as he hugs her back. Ruka paid no jealousy to this action because this was no time for it.

Mikan mutters, "This is my entire fault. I was reckless. I didn't even realize the situation or his warning and now I'm too late. I'm such an idiot!"

She continues to cry as the rain continues to pour on them.

Natsume spoke, "You're right, you are an idiot."

She stopped hugging and looked at him with teary eyes, "You're supposed to comfort me at a time like this you jerk!"

"You are an idiot, crying won't solve anything you know, stop mourning for something that can be solved, baka. So stop crying," Natsume simply said.

"Be more direct aho!" She said still on top of him as she pounded a fist on his chest.

Then, she laughed and smiled, "But thanks."

Natsume smirked, "Are you really that obsessed with me that you want to be on top of me forever?"

Mikan noticed and slapped him on the face, "You jerk."

She stood up and looked away while blushing as Natsume stands up.

Ruka suddenly laughed, "You still have a funny relationship you know?"

Mikan stared at him, looking very confused.

Youichi smiled and knows that it's going to be okay after all.

As Natsume just left them until Mikan snapped out and noticed Natsume was already far.

"Hey wait for me!" Mikan yelled as she runs towards him.

Ruka followed suit.
