Hello! Well, not much to say but here's the 12th chapter. Sorry for the long delay…
Chapter 12: Randomness Occurs Every Second
Mikan's POV
"Master! This way!" Genzou shouted to me.
Tsu, Shin and Ren ran ahead of us to destroy all obstacles. Tsu is using his time power to freeze the time of a member of the AAO to let me have the chance to gain their Alice's possession.
I followed behind Genzou as he points me to all the people with their time that has been stopped. So far after Ruka left, from Ren's calculations, I've sucked around 38 members of the organization.
My body grows weak as I absorb their Alice and grow more powerful as they are fully absorbed. But every time I possess a new Alice, the memories made by the old master runs in my head.
"Another member," Genzou cried out. There lay a woman, lying unconsciously on the ground. From the looks of it, she's still young. She had long blonde hair and blue-black shade eyes.
After I take your Alice, you're free to roam about around the world as you please. Just, please do not hold a grudge against me. I'm just taking back what's mine. I whispered to the woman as I touched her chest to get her Alice.
"What Alice did she possess?" Genzou asked.
As my body finished absorbing her Alice, the visions started. This girl happens to have someone special, but he left her when she showed her Alice to him for the first time. When she entered Alice Academy, she realized she had no chances of falling in love. She gave up and met Okaa-san and joined the AAO.
"She has…the water Alice," I said.
"Genzou-sama, we've manage to group up around 25 more members in one spot so Master can easily retrieve them. From Ren-san's view, around 22 more people then we've absorbed around 64 percent of the organization. Should we stop there or continue?" I heard Shin asked Genzou with a monitor.
"We'll stop. Master looked worn out. After you've collected them, go back to Underworld Central immediately! I'll be by Master's side," Genzou said then a beep sound was made.
"Come on, within 3 floors, there'll be more members of the organization. We better hurry before they catch up to us," Genzou said.
"But Genzou, haha, that's clearly impossible," I laughed. Genzou smiled and carried me. "We have to go now."
When he said now, everything that passed us came out as a blur vision. Genzou has speed power and strength. We moved about into the whole building with ease.
As we passed some doors and hallways, in slow motion, I saw one door was open. As fast as Genzou could run, I got a glimpse of it. When I took a look in it, I saw a pair of eyes piercing towards my eyesight. Then it disappeared when we ran.
"Here we are," Genzou stopped his pace. I looked around the room. There was no sense at all. The room was filled with endless darkness.
"And this is where you will end!" A voice echoed the room.
"Yuka-san was right! You guys are an endless source of pain!" Miss Aniya flashed through the door behind us and started a cruel laugh.
I was stunned. She stood behind me. Wearing the horrible, ugly jump suit that was given by the AAO. One word, my bad I meant four letters to describe it is U-G-L-Y! It was in an army green color with a fabric stick on the right side shoulder which wrote AAO.
"A-Aniya-san," My lips trembled as I spoke. Genzou's hand covered my ears somehow.
"Hello, MIKAN," Reo appeared next to Miss Aniya and started singing.
"GRRRAAAAAAH!!!" Genzou screamed as he heard Reo's voice. After Reo sang his introduction, Genzou let go of his hold on my ears and collapsed on the floor.
"GENZOU!" I shouted and caught his head before the fall. His body returned into his original form as the Eternal Beast.
"BASTARD!" I shouted towards Reo.
"NOW IT'S YOUR TURN TO LEAVE THIS WORLD!" Reo chuckled.
Without further ado, I took a glance of all the members of the AAO lying down in a pile just waiting for me to free them from my family's curse. I grinned towards Miss Aniya and Reo and held out my palm in front of the pile of humans.
"You can't absorb all those pathetic worthless Alices at once," Reo laughed.
"Just watch me," I mumbled under my breath.
My palm glowed yellow and I concentrate on each of the people that were there. I counted all the spirits that I felt in the pile. Then something strikes me, there were only 24 people in the pile. One was missing. My body started feeling weak as I absorbed the Alices, and all of the humans' memories flew into my head.
"Let's get her to Yuka-san. She'll know how do deal with this wretch," Reo smirked.
Drats! The more Alices I absorb at once the longer it takes for my energy to recover. Damn it!
"Come on. Aniya, ask one of the Control Alice users to drag that beast into the dungeon. The body is now ready. We'll finally have our destructive leader," Reo smiled.
"I'll be right back," Miss Aniya left the room.
"I'll…I'll…neh-ver, foh-low your orh-ders," I mumbled out of breath. Oh no, fatigue is taking over me. I've got to at least get Genzou out of here. I held out my palms to send a teleporting power to Genzou.
"There, there princess. We don't want any hassle now do we?" Reo picked me up and walked out of the room. "Don't worry. That beast will be fully killed with the laser beams in the bottom of the building.
"He's…he's ahn ehtwernel beest. He'h wohnt daih! He's ihmmortal. Youh peopehl wohnt wihn," I mumbled and my eyes failed to hang on any longer and closed shut.
(A/N: She said, "He's…he's an Eternal Beast. He won't die! He's immortal. You people won't win.")
Even if my eyes failed me, I can still hear the surroundings and imagine things in my head.
"Reo-kun! All the Control Alice users are gone!" I heard Miss Aniya panted the words out.
So I've taken all of those people's Alices away. I feel myself regaining my Alice energy.
"Then just pull that beastly bastard to Yuka-san's headquarters. We'll probably have some use of him when his master is a part of us," Reo said.
"I think the girl is regaining her Alices now," Miss Aniya said.
"I don't think we want that, now. Mikan…SLEEP!" Reo snapped and adjusted his earring when he said that.
That bastard. If he could just wait for a few more seconds, my energy will be all right. I could take both of them down and escape back to where Natsume and the others are. My physical self is asleep; thank god my spirit is still alive.
NATSUME!!! I thought.
Natsume! Answer me! Natsume! I screamed.
'Mikan? Mikan! Where are you? On the way back, I suppose?! Ruka's not here yet either!' Natsume said.
WHAT! Ruka's not here yet? Where's Zen?! He didn't get caught did he? Darn it! He's the most klutz's one in the group. Where is he?
ZEN! ZEN! Where the hell are you?!
'Master?! Ahahaha! Sorry. The boy here is hungry, when we flew out of the building he retrieve his powers back and he used it on me. Animal pheromone works on me if I'm in my animal form.'
Then where are you?
'Umm…McDonalds' actually. The boy was hungry and ordered me to fly down and buy him food. In 19 km and we're back in HQ.'
McDonalds. God, how long haven't I eaten that? Hey! Zen! Get 150 Beef Burgers and Cheese Burgers for HQ each. If you want food, go to my room in the Academy and check inside my drawer, there's a bottle with your name on it. It all that I can afford now. I'll try to take some of the bodies' blood while they're still in coma.
' ARE YOU SERIOUS?! THE WORKERS WILL DIE TO MAKE THOSE BURGERS!'
Idiot! Buy one Beef Burger and one Cheese Burger. THEN YOU CLONE IT ALL!! I can't believe I'm feeding an idiot.
'YAY! I'll see you later, Master!'
You better remember to be in your human form when you go into my room. Who knows when some students would be out awake and found you lurking in the night, besides, you don't have Genzou's speed power and I must say you ARE FAT! AND I WARN YOU! IFYOU TAKE THE OTHER BEASTS' BOTTLE I WON'T FEED YOU FOR A DIMENSIONAL LIFETIME!
'Master. That's cruel. Ah, the boy wishes you luck.'
Tell him I said thank you. AND YOU, ZEN! GO BACK NOW! I shouted.
'Mikan? Mikan? Can you hear me? Where's Ruka?' I heard Natsume asked.
He's on his way. McDonalds. He's dead hungry. I told Zen to get some food for everyone too. I'll be back soon enough. Tell everyone not to worry.
'Wakatta. Jya ne.'
My eyes now started to open. I saw a bright light in front of my face. I felt that my arms and legs are tied up. Seems like I'm on a bed. My neck is also tied. God! Everything seems to be in a blur.
"Yuka-san. She's awake now," I heard Reo said.
Yuka-san… she's my Okaa-san.
"Good. Finally, the last piece of the end," I heard Okaa-san cried.
"Aniya, you did a fine job. Us resurrecting you wasn't a half bad of an idea after all," Yuka-san shouted with glee.
"W-why did you k-kill her in t-the first p-place? Then w-why'd you r-resurrect her b-back?" I mumbled.
"Because dear. Your fellow beasts killed her a few moments ago. She's been quite precious but stupid," Reo said.
So Miss Aniya was one of the missing people in the pile. Then let's review, how many Alices I have now.
Water, Telepathy, 3 types of Pheromone Alices, Bomb, Fire Casting, Wind, Control, Speed, Time Travel and Electromagnet.
Even if I absorb over 200 people's Alices, they'll break up into these groups and more. What Alice can I use against them?
"Argh!" I heard Genzou grunt. "Get away from Master!" He shouted.
"Back off monster. I'll kill your master for good if you move," Takashi came into the room and shone a stake in front of Genzou.
"Gen-nzou. Daijoubu. Get out of here!" I shouted and stretched my arm and cast a spell onto Genzou. He miraculously disappeared.
Genzou. You're invisible now. Get out of here by all means. You're safe. You can pass thru people and objects with ease.
'Not a chance. Here, I'll help you out from this chains.'
Genzou?!
End POV
"Where's that bastard like beast!?" Reo shouted and searched around the room.
While everyone was looking for Genzou's presence, Genzou went over to Mikan's bed and broke all of the chains sealed on her.
"HE'S THERE!" Azumi shouted and pointed at the pieces of the broken chain on the bed.
"Umm…hey. Where's the girl?" Reo asked.
"SHUT UP! JUST GO AND FIND HER!" Azumi knocked Reo's head and shouted.
That girl, she's powerful. Just who in the world is she? Takashi thought. So, I've finally recognize the presence aura. She's headed for the B Block tunnel. This will be fun.
"Takashi, where are you going?" Azumi asked.
Takashi faced Azumi and caressed her face. "Just looking for the bait. I'll be back soon," Takashi whispered and left thru the doors of the room.
"Idiot," Azumi cursed.
"Genzou, you OK?" Mikan asked Genzou as he carried her while running to find an exit.
"I'm fine. You used an amount of energy to put that spell on me. God! Would you ever try to think?" Genzou scolded.
"Sorry," Mikan whined.
"I forgive you," Takashi blocked their way and snickered.
"Mimoru. Am I right?" Genzou stopped his pace and asked. Genzou put Mikan down and changed into his human form.
"Hand over the girl," Takashi demanded.
"Master will return to the Underworld safely. Don't get in our way," Genzou said.
"In your way? You're in our way!" Takashi shouted. "Be prepared!"
Genzou stood in front of Mikan and closed his eyes, clasps his hands together and started chanting. "Yone Wo Mimau," continuously.
"Genzou," Mikan whispered then she nodded.
"DIIIEEEE!!" Takashi shouted as he let go a ball of electric currents. Genzou opened his eyes and caught the electric ball and shoot it back towards Takashi.
"Bastard! Now DIE!" Takashi smiled and the ball disappeared.
"What?!" Genzou and Mikan shouted.
Azumi sneaked up behind Genzou and stabbed him with a stake through his body.
"With this stake through your heart, it's impossible to live even for an immortal," Azumi snickered.
Genzou! Don't be arrogant and don't say a word. Pretend to be dead for a while. I'm asking Maaka to handle this. Mikan told Genzou.
With that thought, Genzou instantly fell to ground without a word or breath. Blood oozed out from the stab and he returned into his beast form.
"Aren't you a least bit sad? I mean, we did kill your savior! Hahah!" Azumi laughed.
"Of course I'm sad. Okaa-san," Mikan sneered.
"OKAA-SAN?!" Azumi shouted. "JUST WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TO CALL ME THAT?!"
"I'm your daughter, Mikan. Daughter of you, Azumi Yuka and him, Aikawa Sakura. My full name is Mikan SAKURA," Mikan smiled.
"Hajimemashite," Mikan bowed. Azumi fell to the ground. Shocked. She just stared at the smiling brunette girl who claims herself as her daughter.
"Now, since you killed my companion. Allow me to kill yours," Mikan smiled.
"MAAKA! RELEASE! KILL THE PERSON FACING YOU RIGHT NOW! AND DO IT WITHOUT MERCY! OUT!" Mikan screamed.
Mikan's body glowed red and sort of dissolved in the atmosphere. Then red petals flew out of nowhere and circulate the area Mikan was in. There appeared another side of Mikan, known as Maaka.
She was wearing the cheongsam that was still worn by Mikan. Her hair is left down to her waist. For an odd reason, she had a belt containing her weapons. And knives are placed on her thighs.
"So, Master Mikan was in trouble and it's because of a wimp like you? It's SOO predictable Mikan-sama," Maaka whined.
"Who are you? What happened to that girl?" Takashi asked.
"You mean Mikan-sama?" Maaka smiled.
Tell them that she disappeared and ordered you to come and fetch me. Genzou suggested.
Now why would I bother rescuing you of all people? I'd rather have that darn blockhead Natsume. Replied Maaka.
JUST DO AS I SAY NOW! Genzou snapped.
Why you-! Maaka cut-off.
Just do as he says Maaka. Mikan whispered.
"As you wish, Mikan-sama. She disappeared, my Master. I'm here to regain this awful smelly beast,," Maaka said and smiled.
"Mikan-sama? Disappeared? NO! I can still sense her presence. Azumi go search for her," Takashi ordered.
"Lady, you aren't going anywhere," Maaka grinned evilly towards Azumi. "You're Mikan-sama's Okaa-san. So I'll call you Obaa-chan. Hajimemashite." Smiles.
Maaka's body glowed red and some sort of light tentacles was made. The tentacles captured Azumi and tightened the grip.
"So this man is your lover now right? You made Aikawa-san sad for turning against him. You made Mikan-sama sad too," Maaka grew veins.
"That's it! I've waited so long to take revenge for Mikan-sama now here it is!" Maaka shouted. Her hair flew and swayed in all directions. She held her hands in the air and produced a giant red glowing ball.
"You can make Electrical balls. I can make Multiples!" Maaka smiled and threw the ball towards Takashi.
"Stupid idiot! You're fighting with the same Alice like me. What makes you think you can win? I can easily grab the ball and counter attack you," Takashi smiled and was in a ready position to capture the ball.
"That's where you're wrong," Maaka smiled. The ball was a meter away from Takashi. Half a meter and then the ball expanded and exploded into hundreds of pieces. The ball was like a glass and it shattered into pieces that were now on the floor.
The pieces of glass on the floor still glowed red.
"What is that?! It didn't even hit me," Takashi cried then he saw Maaka's lips turning into a huge wide grin.
The shattered pieces glowed pink and shone a laser to the ceiling. The laser burnt the parts of skin of Takashi and burnt the ceiling walls and it started to crumble.
"3…2…," Maaka counted.
"TAKASHI!" Azumi screamed.
"One…crushed," Maaka snickered. The ceiling fell on top of Takashi but the laser still shone it's light. Below the rocks of the ceiling, blood sweeps the floor beneath it.
"BASTARD! IDIOT! ARROGANT!" Azumi cried and broke the tentacles' hold of her.
"YOU! YOU'LL PAY FOR WHAT YOU DID! YOU WILL PAY!!!" Azumi got up and shouted.
"My Alice doesn't seem to be working in this building. But the creations of that Imai girl will do the trick!" Azumi shouted and revealed a gun.
Imai?!Hotaru? Maaka and Mikan thought.
"SHOOT!" Azumi screamed and a light blasted from the gun towards Maaka.
"SHIELD!" Maaka shouted and an invisible shield appeared from her palm.
"DRATS!" Azumi cursed. "Never mind that!" Then she produced some knives. (Seriously, where does she keep these things)
"You're fighting against my own masterpiece," Maaka smiled.
(A/N: Maaka is gifted with a power of aiming things accurately. So when she throws knives, even if the person dodges it, she'll manage to throw another knife to his the target.)
"So be it! I happen to be a pro as well! Be prepared!" Azumi got into a ready position.
"You humans and the phrase, 'be prepared'. Seriously, it's worthless for me to be prepared when you aren't," Maaka complained.
Maaka took out her knives from her thighs and point it at Azumi. She aimed for Azumi's heart until-.
Maaka-chan. She's not to die today. She'll die the next time we meet. If you wish to steal her Alice go ahead. But don't kill her just yet. Something tells me that the whole entire future will turn inside out if you do. Mikan whispered.
Maaka nodded in return. She put in one knife back into the slit on her thigh.
"Only one of these will do the trick," Maaka lied.
"Handicapped huh? I won't regret this," Azumi said and threw her knives. Maaka dodge to the side and threw her knife in a horizontal direction. So her knife (which happens to be in red color) shot down all of knives thrown by Azumi.
"You didn't shoot it at me? Why?" Azumi asked in an unsatisfied tone.
"Mikan-sama told me not to kill you, but I initially wish that she didn't ask me to do so. But either way, this is the end for you," Maaka said and disappeared.
"I'm here, but you can't see me," Maaka's voice echoed the hallway.
"Where are you!?" Azumi shouted.
"Behind you," Maaka popped up behind Azumi and said. Maaka placed her right hand on Azumi's shoulder and absorbed her Alice.
"CHEAT!" Azumi shouted and fell down to the floor. Maaka too, fell to the floor. She changed forms and turned back into Mikan.
Genzou got up from the floor and adjusted his hair and shirt.
"Y-You're still ah-live?" Azumi asked.
"An immortal NEVER dies," Genzou said and helped Mikan up.
"I'm fine, let's go," Mikan said.
"You won't leave this place alive," Azumi shot back up.
"On the contrary, you won't," Shin showed up in front of Genzou and Mikan.
Shin raised her palm and shot a light to Azumi's eyes and she fainted.
"It's so hard to look for Master with his highness's presence," Ren complained.
(A/N: Ren and Shin are females. Read back in chapter 6)
The three beasts transformed into their human form.
"Well, our work here is done," Tsu said. "But we only manage to retrieve 59 percent of the AAO. Is that good?"
"We'll just have to continue the second phase of the battle handicapped I suppose. They now have 41 percent of power, and if we compare our community with theirs, our community is only 15 percent of their power," Mikan admitted.
"Don't you think we should include the Academy now?" Ren suggested.
"We have no choice. I have to talk with them soon. And discuss about our second phase with them," Mikan said.
"Whatever you wish, I'm at your side, Master," Shin bowed down.
"So are we," Ren and Tsu said.
"I have no choice but to be at your side," Genzou whined.
"Lucky you. You'll get feed every time you're around Master," Shin sweat dropped.
"You're always thinking about eating. Aren't you a little aware of the consequences?! If all of us attend to Master at once, only chaos will be present," Ren shouted.
"Then why does it have to be his Highness?! Why can't it be me?!" Shin shouted.
"WELL YOU ALWAYS THINK ABOUT FOOD! MASTER WOULDN'T WANT SOMEONE SELFISH TO PROTECT HER NOW WOULD SHE?!" Ren shouted back.
"Why you!?" Shin turned into her dog form and bit Ren's legs.
"BITCH!" Ren turned into her dog form and bit Shin's tail.
Mikan, Genzou and Tsu sweat dropped.
"Wait! I thought you guys left?" Mikan asked Tsu.
"We were planning to. But then Shin had a tummy ache, so we sort of had a problem," Tsu said and started sweating.
"WHAT PROBLEM?!" Mikan's neck grew long and faced Tsu.
"Ah, well…," Tsu started.
"SHIN BIT SOMEONE!" Ren shouted. She was already in her human form.
"I WAS HUNGRY!" Shin turned into her human form and whined.
"YOU KNOW MASTER WILL ONLY LET US FEED IF WE ASK PERMISSION FIRST!" Ren scolded.
"What was I suppose to do? Without my energy, how do expect me to fly back to headquarters?" Shin asked pouting.
"Find your own way back, then. Why ask me?" Ren asked.
"Then, should I turn back the clock and hold onto you to get back?" Shin grinned.
"IDIOT!" Ren punched Shin and chaos between the two started all over again.
"Well now, it's time to go home," Mikan said. Everyone nodded.
"ZEN! HURRY UP WITH THE FOOD ALREADY! MASTER'S SERVANTS ARE GETTING RESTLESS!" Zii shouted.
"DO YOU MIND?! CONCENTRATING ON MAKING DUPLICATES OF BURGERS IS HARD!" Zen shot back.
"Just do it right!? Or do you want me to complain about this argument to Mikan-sama?" Satoshi showed up and glared.
"Gomenasai, Satoshi-sama," Zen and Zii bowed, and then continued with their work of duplicating hamburgers.
"HEY! MASTER IS BACK!" Mei popped and squealed.
"Here, done. 200 McDonald burgers," Zen smiled.
"Took you long enough," Zii snickered.
"ZEN!" Mikan slammed open the door.
"EEEEKK!" Screeched Zen.
"YOU! YOU! YOU DRANK MEI AND ZII BLOOD BOTTLE DIDN'T YOU?!" Mikan pointed her finger at Zen.
"Now, now Master. You told everyone how it's not good to point," Zen stepped back.
"BAKA DA YO!" Mikan shouted and a fire ball appeared on her palm. "You'll let them drink your blood now!" She screamed.
"MASTER!!!" Zen screamed.
"Why don't you at least pay back by helping Master out?" Ren came in and suggested.
"Help what?" Zen asked.
"You're an idiot. First off, help give out the food, and then clear everything up. Then beg for forgiveness. The massage her back and legs. Then help her through her homework. There're plenty of things to do for Master," Ren suggested.
"You know, that could work out! SO HELP ME NOW!" Mikan grinned evilly.
"Cruel…this life is too cruel…," Zen whined.
So how do you like my 12th chapter? God! It's almost been a month since I updated. Oh yeah, I was writing my other fic, Blacklite Wings. Give some suggestions for the next chap or just comment whatever about this chap alright? Sore jya.
