Last chapter is here!
I was thinking whether to make this story long but decided not to since it might take me long to finish it. I don't want to make my readers to wait for my stories to update long just because I g0t caught up from watching anime! lol
Remember Yue and the other girl from the past chapter? I think I'm going to give them a little credit in this one. Lol
Enjoy!

Hotaru looked at her chipped tea cup course, our animal lover noticed this as soon as he laid his eyes upon the raven-haired girl.
"Is something the matter?" he asked.
"I haven't seen Mikan since this morning."
"Oh, maybe she's with Natsume? Though I haven't seen Natsume too..." Ruka said, sounded unsure to himself.
"I don't like this." Hotaru looked at her tea cup again. "This usually means something bad has happened."
Ruka, though worried too decided to just shrug it off this time. "How about if none of them turns up tomorrow then that's the time we'll start worrying abou them. But as for now, let's just enjoy the night shall we?"
Ruka led Hotaru out of the tea shop to the crowded streets of the Rhode Island. Hotaru hesitated at first but soon followed the blond boy waiting for her outside.
'Stupid Mikan, always making others worry.' she thought as she heaved as heavy sigh.

On the far end of the same street stands Yue and Miko.
"AAAHH~! The fireworks were so pretty!" Yue said. Stretching her hands far wide as she continued walking
"Hey Yue?"
"Yeah."
"It seems like we forgot to do something..." Miko said.
"And what is that?" Yue asked, placing her forefingers on her temple to think. "Oh yeah!" she smacks her left palm with her other hand as she exclaimed. "It was about!"
"The Revenge for the Slutty girl named Mikan operation!" They said in unison.
"What will we do to her?" Yue asked.
"Let's think about it later this evening. We can't let such an event like this to let it pass, right?" Miko said as she winked at a cute guy who was looking at their way. "Let's check him out first. It seems that his friend is kinda cute too."
And so, the both of them walked towards a bunch of super cute guys.

"Oka-sama! Oto-sama! Look at this!" Mikan said as she went running to where her parents are standing, waving flowers that sways back and forth vigorously. "The flowers that I planted are finally blooming!"
"That's great, Mikan-chan." Yuka said, bending down to kiss her precious daughter.
"Happy Birthday! Our little princess!" Yukihara lifts Mikan up.
"Thank you, oto-sama!" Mikan giggled. "When I grow up, I want to marry a guy who is just like you, Oto-sama!"
"Oh, but that would mean you will be replacing me." Yukihara joked
"Of course, you will be the No.1 boy person in my life!. I promise!"
"I'll see to that, okay?" he then placed Mikan down and the three of them laughed happily.
'So this really do happen?' Mikan thought. 'They say that if you are about to die, flashes of your past will come through your mind. But I couldn't see why it has to be the night when they died.'
-
"W-warm..." Mikan weakly said.
Natsume hugged her tightly. "Are you okay?"
"When I grow up, I want to marry a guy who is just like you, Oto-sama!"
"W-why did I thought about that again!" Mikan mumbled, shaking her head violently. Trying very hard to stop those words from echoing through her mind endlessly.
"Don't worry Mikan. Were almost there." Natsume reassuringly said.
Mikan looked surprised but relaxed after a second or two. 'Yes, were almost there. Were almost entering the gates of the underworld. Hades will surely come and greet us. Goodbye oto-sama, oka-sama in heaven for your daughter has been very bad this week. Fantasizing, lying-'
"Natsume! Youre almost there!" a certain boy called out.
Mikan and Natsume finally reached the ground but instead of the sea, they fell on a hard wooden floor.
"Ittai...Why didnt you prepare something soft to land on?!" Natsume snapped (standing up)
"Shut up you ingrateful bastard!"
"Wha-?" Natsume turned around and saw Misak getting near to Mikan.
"Why is she here?" He glared at Tsubasa.
"You did say i could bring anything with me. So I supposed that it could also mean someone." Tsubasa answered nonchalantly
"You are making a big mistake. Anyway, we have to get out of here quick. before those stupid guys will catch us." Natsume said
They jetted through the stormy night. The escape was perfect but so they thought. Fate does not seem to be by their side since their boat started to rock vigorously back and forth. The rain did not help either, it was getting slippery as the moment passes by. Mikan, being as clumsy as ever slipped, threatening to fall anytime. Luckily, Natsume caught her.
'Thank Goodness!' Mikan thought.
But she was wrong. Dead wrong. Natsume may have caught her but he has to do something so that Mikan will not fall into the sea with him. So he did the most noble thing to do. He pushed Mikan away from the edge just when he was about to happened too fast that Tsubasa didn't have enough time to do something. When he stood up, Natsume's body is nowhere to be seen.
"NOOOO~!!" Mikan cried. She ran towards the boat's edge, ready to jump into the roaring sea. But Misaki was quick to catch her. She couldn't afford to loose someone again.
"Let me go!" Mikan yelled but the strong wind swallowed her voice. She kicked and screamed and did everything that she could with her power. She didn't budge Misaki though. She was weak, hopeless. For who could possibly blame her? She just lost someone who is dear to her.
"I know you're hurt Mikan but we cant do anything now. The storm is too strong and our boat might break anytime. Do you think Natsume would like that? Do you think he want's you to get hurt? I think not. Maybe tomorrow, he'll be waiting for you on the shore. Saying "What took you so long?" or whatever." Misaki said, trying to comfort Mikan.
Mikan fell on the floor, Tsubasa took the chance and manuever the boat away from the place.
"Sayonara, Natsume..." Mikan whispered. Hoping that the wind will carry with them her words of deep agony to her beloved.

"Wow! what is this place?!" Misaki said, astonished. For
"This is a man-made island, made exclusively for Mikan and Natsu---." Tsubasa trailed off.
"I-I think we forgot something..." Mikan finally uttered a word
"What is it?" Misaki asked.
"I forgot but its something big. Important."
"Just think about it tomorrow. Its been a long night, you are probably exhausted." Misaki said, thinking that Mikan is just trying to think something else to forget about what just happened the other night.
Mikan went first, following a trail way towards a humble mansion-like house.
"Will she be alright?" Tsubasa said, worried.
"I hope she will..." Misaki sadly answered.
Tsubasa unconsciously got her hand and squeezed it tight. When he finally notived what he just did, he nervously looked at Misaki but instead of her usual angry look she just smiled at him.
"Thanks, I need that a lot." she finally said as they walk faster to catch up with Mikan.
--The next Morning--
"Now I remember!!!" Mikan jerked up, feeling her blood rushing faster and faster in her brain. *shivers*
Mikan got up when she finally recovered her composure. She ran towards the hallway, following the delicious smell of Misaki's cooking. Forgetting momentarily about last night's incident she boomed inside the room and cried "We forgot to bring Hotaru and Ruka!!"

Hotaru and Ruka looked first thing in the morning but they couldn't find them. It was already 8 in the morning and the students are filing up to port, waiting for the private yacht to come and pick them up. But they are not the only ones looking either. Both Yue and Miko were looking for the brunette, hoping to pull off their first and last scheme.
"Yue Look! Edward is standing over there!" Miko squeeled.
"I heard that he is the richest teenager in France. Lets Go check him out!!" Then they both dashed away, forgetting about the plan and Mikan.

Ruka and Hotaru kept on searching for them. They went inside to Natsume's room to find some clues about their , something white landed softly on the bed.
"What is that?" Hotaru asked. Ruka picked it up and turned out to be a paper with a message on it.
"Its from Natsume." He said to Hotaru.
The letter says:
We went earlier as planned.
Sorry for not informing you ahead of time. Dad is faster than i thought.
See you there
-Natsume-
Hotaru got hold of the paper and read it again. "What does this mean?"
"The Island we purchased a long time ago." Ruka answered
"For what?"
"Do you know about Mikan and Natsume's past?" RUka asked her
"Yeha. That Idiot broke Mikan's heart who happens to my best friend." Hotaru coldly answered
Ruka sighed. "I think you don't have the right to judge that Idiot who happens to be MY best friend."
"Im sorry...I guess im wrong! Your friend practically made Mikan cry every night. And wait, there's! She almost isolate herself towards other people! And all other wonderful things that your angel like friend made her do." Hotaru sarcastically said.
"You're wrong. You just happened to not know the real story why he left her." Ruka calmly said and before Hotaru could argue back, he narrated the whole story to her.
"All aboard!!!" the man shouted out. He looked around and only saw an empty space so he went inside and reported to the ship's captain that everyone was inside. Almost everyone anyway.
The Private Yacht left and so did Ruka's super jet ski. Both Hotaru and Ruka made their way to the vast ocean to go get their friends.

"I cant believe I forgot about Hotaru!!" Mikan said.
"Its inevitable, Mikan. Everything happened too fast that you don't have time to do some explaining. You even forgot to tell me, right?" Misaki said.
"Y-you're right. Misaki-chan?"
"Yeah" Misaki turned around to face Mikan
"May I go outside? I'm going to take a stroll for a while."
"Of course you can!" Misaki smiled
When Misaki heard the soft banging of the door she hurriedly went to Tsubasa's side. "Please watch over her. This girl is in suicidal state!!"
she begged
"Fine! but in one condition."
Misaki raised her right eyebrow. "What?"
Tsubasa motioned her let her comw nearer. When she did as what she was told Tsubasa whispred "Kiss me."
"Waaaaaa~!!!!"

Mikan walked aimlessly around and found herself on the shore. The sun shone brightly that day, the wind is cool and seabirds flew graciously up in the sky.
"Why couldn't I be free like those birds?" she sighed. Then she saw a jet ski zooming towards her direction. Mikan re-adjusted her eyes so that she can see who it is.
"Hotaru! Ruka!" Mikan ran towards them.
Ruka tied his ski boat to the other rope tied on a tree. Hotaru jumped out of her seat and forgetting about her naussea.
"How did you know?!" Mikan said, surprised.
"He knows Natsume's plan. Turned out that they bought it when they were 16." Hotaru smiled.
"Come to think of it, where's Natsume?" Asked Ruka
Mikan eyes started to be puffy.
"What happened?" Hotaru asked, caressing her best friends hair to comfort her.
Mikan wailed and started to spill everything. About her and Natsume running from those men in black, down to how they fell on a cliff and how Natsume gone missing. Both RUka and Hotaru listened with utter shock and amazement.
"It's not you fault Mikan." Hotaru said
"Yeah. You would never do such a thing to harm him. Though you always threatens him..." RUka tried to oke around but Hotaru glared at him.
"Fine." Ruka pouted.

A month passes by and they still haven't heard a thing about Natsume. But Mikan did not stop living. She continued on about her life though she knew she would never be the same without Natsume. Ruka and Hotaru turned out to be quite a couple and so is Tsubasa and Misaki. Misaki is happy for the four of them but it kind of saddens her at the same time.
Mikan gazed at the sparkling sea. It was 7 in the morning and she couldn't take the love-love ambiance at the mansion so she went out. The beach is her favorite place now. She felt much, much closer to Natsume there. She got some flowers from the garden before going to the beach. Now, here she was, dressed with white summer dress with a bouquet of flowers. She threw it to the sea and whispered to sea spirits. "Please bring back Natsume to me."
After some time, she went back to the mansion. Went back to her new family.
"I think we need to go get Grandpa soon." SHe said to herself. laughing at the same time for forgetting about her Grandpa. "He must be angry by now. I could just imagine him yelling and all."
