RECAP: Soon, it became dark and Auntie Nina left us saying she has to unpack in her new house. We all said bye and we all started heading back to the dorms. We lived in our parent's dorms even thought we had dorms for ourselves. Daddy and Mommy tucked me and my idiotic twin in our bed that we share and kissed us good night. They smiled at us and left the room turning the lights off. "Sarah, it waws fun todway. I lwove Auntwie Ninwa!" My idiotic twin said. Even though he was idiotic, he was one of the most important people in my life. Well, after Jirou.

I don't understand it yet but Mommy said I'll understand soon why I have a connection with Jirou. "Yes, Miharu, I love Auntie Nina too." I said sleepily. The thing I didn't notice was that my parents were listening to our conversation and was smiling as they were walking away. With that, I fell asleep. END RECAP

January 1st. That meant two things. It was New Year's Day and most importantly, it was Hyuuga Mikan's birthday. It was going to be her 24th birthday. Even though she was 24 now, she still looked like an 18 year old and same with all of her friends. Mikan woke up and she smiled. The first thing she saw was her husband, Natsume Hyuuga, looking at her smiling gently. Mikan reached down to him and pulled him down by his neck and gave him a kiss.

Natsume smirked. "I know you want me but the Sarah and Miharu are already up." Mikan smiled again at the thought of her children. Mikan and Natsume changed and went to the kitchen. Mikan was tackled by her twins, both of them grinning widely and hugging their mother tightly. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMY!!!" they both yelled.

Over the last few months, Miharu learned how to speak properly and Sarah learned a few things from her mother. Since Sarah had the S.E.C.T alice, Mikan trained her and let Sarah copy every alice from every student in Gakuen Alice. She was trained to be emotionless in mission and heck, she was only 7. Of course Miharu and Sarah weren't sent to missions just yet but they had hard training. Even though they didn't have any missions yet, they knew of their responsibilities, the prophecy they had to fulfill, and the possible dangers that lay in their futures. Not only did Sarah and Miharu know that, Ryou, Jirou, Kouno, Ria, Naika, and Suni also all knew this even though they were young.

"Mommy, I made you breakfast." Sarah said sweetly signaling plates of pancakes, scramble eggs, toast, bacon, and a pitcher of fresh, home-squeezed orange juice. "Aww… Sarah, if you always make breakfast, what am I as your mother??" Mikan said embarrassed. "At least we won't be poisoned by your food, Mikan." Natsume said teasingly. Mikan flashed him a glare and smiled at her children. "Thank you Sarah…" Mikan said. "Hey!!! I helped Sarah too!" Miharu said. Natsume and Mikan smiled at their son and Mikan said, "Hai, Hai. Thank you to you too, Miharu" as Natsume ruffled his son's raven locks.

"Well, the food's going to get cold… Let's eat, yes???" Natsume said. "Hai!" everyone said. Natsume sat next to Sarah and in front of Mikan. Miharu sat next to his mother and in front of his twin. Everyone started eating and complimented Sarah on her cooking. After they were done with breakfast, Miharu and Sarah told their parents to wait. They ran into the kitchen which was apart from the dining room by the way, and brought in a chocolate cake with chocolate dipped strawberries on the top, decorating it. There were already 24 candles shining brightly as Miharu carried it in.

Mikan gasped in surprise of her children's thoughtfulness. Natsume just grinned proudly at his children. "Sarah and I worked our butts off to bake this cake, Mommy. You better enjoy it!!!" Miharu said in a sing-songy way. Natsume, Miharu, and Sarah start to sing the happy birthday song and Mikan blew out the candles after making a wish. 'I hope it will always with happy like this, life surrounded by family and friends' Mikan wished. The family happily started eating the cake.

Unknown to the twins, their parents had another party at the night when all the children were asleep with all their friends. It was going to be a semi-formal party. While the children were at school, they parents would go to Central Town to buy dresses and suits. As planned, the children were sent to school and the gang met up. Sumire and Mochu looked more tired than usual.

"What happened??" Yuu asked concerned. Sumire just buried her face in her hands and Mochu sighed. "Suni summoned some weird monsters last night 'accidentally' and it took the whole night to kill them." Mochu said in a tired voice. "Majii?!?!?! On Christmas??? Poor Mochu and Sumire." Anna and Nonoko said in unison. "Okay, whatever, let's shop so I could get my energy back!" Sumire said clearly still annoyed at her daughter because of the incident. The gang laughed and decided to meet at the café in about two hours.

The girls went to the dress shop and began their search for the perfect dress. Sumire found her perfect dress first. It was a forest green strapless dress. It had sequins in the bodice and a big bow to make an empire waist. Hotaru found a dress next. The dress was purple and spaghetti strapped. It also had a bow to make it an empire waist. Mikan was next with a wide shoulder strap silver dress. It had a sweetheart line and the straps made a criss-cross in the back. Anna found a halter dress that was pink colored. It had rhinestones on the bodice and a deep v-line. There also was a sash that falls to the floor. Nonoko finally found her dress. It was a midnight blue color halter dress. There was a sash on the waist and a brooch in the middle. Misaki got a strapless white dress that flowed down to her ankles. It had black sequins from top to bottom.

After they bought their dresses, it already took one hour and twenty minutes. They went to the shoe shop next. They all got the same stilettos except it matched the color of their dress. The high heels were about six inches high and there was a band around the ankle to make sure they won't fall. There also was a strap in the middle adorning real crystals and diamonds. They finished shopping ten minutes before the time they were supposed to but figured the boys were already done so they started their way to the café.

Of course, the boys were already done with their shopping by one hour. Mochu was entertaining them with the adventures of last night and how their house was practically ruined. But, they called the principals to tell them they needed the house repaired by the night and of course they agreed. They had enough repair alices that it would take about five minutes.

The gang ate lunch and they went back to Natsume and Mikan's homes. They started decorating… well at least the girls. The boys went outside saying they had something they had to do. The girls were hesitant but let their husbands go do their thing. It was finally time to start the party and the boys weren't back. They girls were kind of worried but decided to just get ready. They put on their dresses and did their hair, makeup, and nails.

When they came out, they saw all the boys all in their suits. Of course, they didn't wear it properly. Their ties were loose, their hair messy as usual, and their buttons not buttoned all the way. Anna and Nonoko prepared the food and Sumire and Hotaru prepared the music and decoration. They all ate, talked, and joked. Finally, they ate the cake and gave Mikan her presents. Sumire and Mochu gave her a 1,000,000,000,000,000 rabbit gift card for howalons. Nonoko and Yuu gave her the new limited edition version of a phone she wanted. Anna and Koko gave her a 1,000,000,000,000,000 rabbit gift card for any shop in Central Town. Hotaru and Ruka got her the newest version of the baka gun and a music player made by yours, Nogi Hotaru. Misaki and Tsubasa Senpai gave her a new MP3 player.

Mikan turned to Natsume for her present but he handed her a piece of cloth. She looked at him curiously but Koko came up to her and took the cloth from her and blindfolded her. Mikan was speechless. She allowed Mochu and Koko lead her to where ever she had to go. When they took off the blindfolds, all the girls were amazed. The boys managed to change the Northern forest to a beautiful landscape. It was lit up with lights and tables. It had a stage prepared with instruments. The boys went up to the stage. Natsume took the middle with the electric guitar. Mochu got the drums, Yuu got the acoustic guitar, and Koko and Tsubasa got the bass.

"Mikan, this is for you. 'Be My Escape' by Relient K" Natsume said.

I've given up on giving up slowly, I'm blending in so
You won't even know me apart from this whole world that shares my fate
This one last bullet you mention is my one last shot at redemption
because I know to live you must give your life away
And I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity and
I've been locked inside that house all the while You hold the key
And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
And even though, there's no way in knowing where to go, promise I'm going because
I gotta get outta here
I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
I gotta get outta here
And I'm begging You, I'm begging You, I'm begging You to be my escape.

I'm giving up on doing this alone now
Cause I've failed and I'm ready to be shown how
He's told me the way and I'm trying to get there
And this life sentence that I'm serving
I admit that I'm every bit deserving
But the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair

Cause I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity and
I've been locked inside that house all the while You hold the key
And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
And even though, there's no way in knowing where to go, promise I'm going because
I gotta get outta here
Cause I'm afraid that this complacency is something I can't shake
I gotta get outta here
And I'm begging You, I'm begging You, I'm begging You to be my escape.

I am a hostage to my own humanity
Self detained and forced to live in this mess I've made
And all I'm asking is for You to do what You can with me
But I can't ask You to give what You already gave

Cause I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity and
I've been locked inside that house all the while you hold the key
And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
And even though, there's no way in knowing where to go, promise I'm going because
I've gotta get outta here
I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
I've gotta get outta here
And I'm begging You, I'm begging You, I'm begging
You to be my escape.

I fought You for so long
I should have let You in
Oh how we regret those things we do
And all I was trying to do was save my own skin
But so were You

So were You

Natsume looked up as he sang the last verse. Mikan had tears in her eyes but wasn't crying yet. He slowly came down the stairs of the stage and Mikan ran to him hugging him. Natsume smiled arrogantly because he knew his plan was a success. "This was what you were working on this whole time?" Hotaru asked Ruka. "Yup." Ruka replied while popping the 'p' at the end. "Nice." Hotaru just said with her rare smile, happy for her best friend.

They started joking around on the stage. The girls started to play the instruments, which they were really good at and the boys started singing. After about 16 songs, they were tired and started their way back to Mikan and Natsume's dorm. They went to the entertainment room and Hotaru brought out a DVD. Everyone looked at her curious of what it was. She put it on the DVD player and started it. The girls started to squeal but stopped abruptly.

Everyone's eyes traveled to the door and they saw nine toddlers rubbing their eyes and in their pajamas. "What are you guys doing together???" Tsubasa asked. "We all woke up and all our parents were gone. Then we remembered that it was Auntie Mikan's birthday so we thought they would be at Miharu and Sarah's house. But they weren't so we decided to sleep over." Ryou said as the oldest. All the parents sighed. Their children were all geniuses.

"What are you guys watching?" Kouno asked.

The gang started laughing like crazy and the children looked at them weird. "This is the video of when all of us were 18, well, except for Tsubasa and Misaki. They were 20." Nonoko said sweetly. The video that Hotaru showed the gang was the performance that they had the day after their honeymoon. "OOOHHH!!! We want to see too!!!" Ria exclaimed. All the kids agreed. The parents sighed but made room for them and they started watching. The kids complimented their parent, aunties, and uncles of the good singing.

"You guys look like you didn't get older at all." Sarah said monotonously. Natsume and Mikan smiled at her and the gang gave her a big hug for her compliment. Sarah was annoyed and was trying to get out of the hugs so Jirou heroically came to save her. He successfully pulled her out and every laughed.
