Lazy lazy me.. Oh well, enjoyyy.
I do not own Gakuen Alice
Enjoy…
Mikan connected her entire apartment to her new room; replacing her old bedroom with the new one she was just given. Putting all her old stuff in the drawers and all. She put her linked her iPod into the speaker, choose a random song and clicked play. She took a bath and changed into shorts and a tank top. After drying her hair, Mikan jumped into her new bed which was, to her surprise, a water bed! Mikan had always wanted one. The good thing is, how watery it was could be controlled. She hugged a random pillow and slowly drifted to dream land.
Chapter 9
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ()()()Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ
The next day, Mikan awoke with the sun shining in her eyes. She sat up and stretched. Mikan looked out the window. It was sunny, but the sky seemed sad. Like it was threatening to rain at any moment. Mikan got out of bed and started her daily routines. She made her way down the hall towards the AP's dinning room greeting the few that were also walking in the hall.
"Good morning." Mikan greeted as she walked towards the group of people lining up to get their food. Everyone replied. Well, those that didn't have food already in their mouths at least.
Mikan took her food and went to sit at a table with Robin, Katie, Alex, Spencer & Melvin.
"Hey Mikan!" All 5 of them greeted. Mikan sat down and they started talking with each other.
"Don't you all still go to school and everything?" Mikan asked while taking a bite out of her French toast.
"Sure we do. After breakfast. The time here is connected to the country you're in after all…" Spencer said taking a bite of his sausage.
"That's confusing..." Mikan yawned.
"You'll get used to it."
"Hm.."
"Mikan! After you're done with breakfast come to my room." Yuka shouted from across the room.
"Got it!"
The few continued their conversation till it was time for them to go to class. "Catch ya guys later."
As Mikan made her way to Yuka's room, she wondered what Yuka could have called her for. Three knocks. A come in.
"Mikan, sit down a while." Mikan did so. "Mikan...we think, that for the time being, yo-"
"I go back to the Academy... Ain't that something I never thought I'd hear."
"Come on Mikan... please?"
"I never said I didn't want to mum. Just... is it really a good idea, you know going back there? After how I left?"
"You're not going back as Sakura Mikan of course. If you do go back there, you're going there as Serio Natako. Persona's sister." He's your half brother anyway…
"Bullshit! Are you serious?"
"Don't swear Mikan…"
"Sorry…I just didn't know that I had a brother. What's with that anyway?"
"Long story short, I adopted him."
"Fu- Oh never mind. What'll my Alice be then?"
"You can choose."
"Does it have to be dangerous?"
"What we think is best is that you try to become the ESP's favourite."
"I'm already his favourite."
"Well, maybe you'd like to become a favourite who hasn't been running away from the Academy for two years?"
Mikan sighed. "Fine fine. Well, if it has to be dangerous, I'll choose level 5 elements. You know, fire, water, earth, air, darkness, light… all those stuff."
"Great! You'll be going there tomorrow. Pack up and get ready." Mikan groaned. "Remember to bring the necklace with you." Mikan waved her hand as she walked out.
Gakuen Alice
Narumi danced into the classroom. "Beautifully, beautiful students! I have news. News! Today…"
"You're admitting that you're gay?" A girl with long straight jet black hair with natural curls at the end came into the room. She had sparkling black orbs glistened in the sunlight.
"NOOO Natako –chan~" There were two waterfalls on Narumi's face. Narumi sniffed. "So, as you can see, we have a new student today! Introduction time~"
"Serio Natako. Nice to meet you… kind of." Mikan gave the class a small smile.
"So…who wants to be Natako-chan's partner?" Narumi was smiling with glee. Half the boys, who didn't have girlfriends, raised their hands. "Let's see… Natsume! What about you?"
"Hn."
"Okay then! So, are there any questions for Natako-chan?"
"Yes, I have a boyfriend. He lives in Japan and I'm quite sure that's all you need to know. I have Level 5 Elements and I'm in the dangerous ability class. Yes, it's true that who you people know as Persona-sensei is my brother."
There was mumbling among the classroom.
"No I don't have the mind-reading Alice. You people are way too easy to read for your own good. If there isn't anything else, I would be going to my seat now."
Mikan walked to her seat and stared out the window. "As you all know, since we have a new student, free day everyone. Make sure to get to know her well!"
Kimiko got up from her seat and walked towards Mikan. She bent down so that her face was next to Mikan's ear. "I saw everything." She whispered something only someone with supersonic ears could hear. Mikan's mouth curled up. She stood up and hugged Kimiko.
"Never knew you mastered Level 5."
"Did that a long time ago. Where have you been?"
"Stuck in this place." Mikan smiled and shook her head.
Rooftop
Mikan sat on the rooftop staring at the setting sun. It's so beautiful… Soon after, Mikan found herself singing…
Innocence-Avril Lavigne
Waking up I see that everything is okay
The first time in my life and now it's so great
Slowing down I look around and I am so amazed
I think about the little things that make life great
I wouldn't change a thing about it
This is the best feeling
This innocence is brilliant, I hope that it will stay
This moment is perfect, please don't go away
I need you now
And I'll hold on to it, don't you let it pass you by
I found a place so safe, not a single tear
The first time in my life and now it's so clear
Feel calm I belong, I'm so happy here
It's so strong and now I let myself be sincere
I wouldn't change a thing about it
This is the best feeling
This innocence is brilliant, I hope that it will stay
This moment is perfect, please don't go away
I need you now
And I'll hold on to it, don't you let it pass you by
It's the state of bliss you think you're dreaming
It's the happiness inside that you're feeling
It's so beautiful, it makes you wanna cry
It's the state of bliss you think you're dreaming
It's the happiness inside that you're feeling
It's so beautiful, it makes you wanna cry
It's so beautiful, it makes you want to cry
This innocence is brilliant, it makes you want to cry
This innocence is brilliant, please don't go away
'Cause I need you now
And I'll hold on to it, don't you let it pass you by
This innocence is brilliant, it's so beautiful, it's so beautiful
This moment is perfect, please don't go away
I need you now, it makes me want to cry
And I'll hold on to it, don't you let it pass you by
"Never knew anyone related to Serio could sing."
Mikan stood up shocked that Natsume was there. "What? Did you think I was tone-deaf?" A light blinded Natsume. Once he could finally see again, Mikan was gone.
"It must be her… I've never heard anyone sing like that accept her."
Next Day After School
"Serio. Where are you going? The canteen is the other way."
"What, a girl can't skip a meal in peace?"
"Hn…"
Mikan continued walking towards the forest. "Would you quit following me?"
"I'm not following you…can't a guy walk to a forest?"
When Natsume finally decided that they were deep enough into the forest, he started, "Mikan."
"Who the hell is Mikan? Your girlfriend? Because if she is, I'm quite sure she wouldn't want you stalking another girl."
"Stop playing, I know it's you."
"Hyuuga, I think you have a bit of a problem. My name is Serio Natako. Not some Mikan you keep going on about."
Mistake 1. Natsume pushed her against a tree. Mistake 2. His face was 1 inch away from hers.
"Hyuuga, I will only say this once. Move." Mistake 3. He stayed glued.
The ground began to shake. In an instant, both the tree and them were enclosed inside a wooden fence.
"Let's play a game…Now you see me, now you don't." Mikan disappeared from Natsume's sight. "Now you see a tree and some green, now, you see nothing." Darkness surrounded Natsume. "Have fun getting out Hyuuga. Oh, by the way if you notice the heat, It'll get closer and closer. When the fire finally reaches you, you'll turn to ice. My advice, stay calm and think like the logical person I'm sure a normal human is. Unless you're telling me you're mental. Oh and don't even try to control the fire. I know you're only a Level 4."
"Ruthless I see my beloved sister..."
"He deserved it…" Mikan spat.
"Come on let's go inside and talk."
Dangerous Ability Hide-out
"So how've you been?"
"Seriously? That's the first thing you say? After two years? After trying to win me too" Mikan smirked.
"Yuka never told me my sister was a little brat. On the other hand, I always knew you were a brat." Rei mirrored her smirk.
"Oh holy… you did not just say that! Okay, what about this, a fight between me and you. Right now in the training room. Whatever place you want it to be."
15 Hours Later
"THAT'S IT! IT'S A TIE!" Two people shouted in aspiration. They gave each other a blank look then started laughing like there was so tomorrow.
"Gahhhh. I'm so tired! Fighting someone on the same level for 15 hours straight is murder!"
"Get your ass up, you've got school in like 2 hours or so." Rei ordered looking just as tired as Mikan was.
"Tell you what, I give you a shape shifting Alice stone and you go to school for me." Mikan was lying on the floor, eyes closed.
"Not happening. Lil' girl."
Mikan groaned. "Come on, I'm 17 this year I'm not a kid. Gosh do you know that line made you sound like you were a paedophile? What incest acts you would do to me I don't even want to imagine."
"Whatever chibi, get going. You should get at least a bit of sleep."
"Don't need any. I wanna stay here and train for a while."
"What are you, some sort of machine? It's like all you need is a 5 minute break before you're alright again."
"In 5 minutes, the enemy can kill you. To be able to just take a breath and get back onto the battle field is the level I aim for."
"You make sense. Just don't push it… okay?"
Mikan smiled. "I won't… it's okay. You should go get some sleep too."
"Hm.. words against ones own. Weird girl you are Sakura."
"Being weird means that I'm special. Being special means that I'm unique. Is there a problem with being unique?" Rei just laughed and walked away.
Second Period
"Serio, why are you so late?"
"I was training in the woods."
"That's no excuse."
"I never said it was. You asked me why I'm so late, so I answered. I was training in the woods. I lost track of time and when I noticed the time, I ran here."
"You're not even breaking a sweat and you expect me to believe that? Who is your partner?"
"Hyuuga."
"Hyuuga, I want you to go outside with Serio now and make sure she runs 20 laps around the school starting from the main gate then come back before my lesson ends."
"Hn."
"Suit yourself…" Mikan and Natsume walked out the classroom.
Gate
"What the hell are you doing Serio?"
"Stretching. I suggest you do so too. You wouldn't want to pull a muscle." Natsume remained still. "Make sure you keep up okay Hyuuga? I'll go slower for you."
"Like I won't be able to keep up with a girl."
"Rueful words have come out of a little boys mouth. May Kami-Sama forgive. Let's go Hyuuga." Mikan and Natsume took off.
25 Minutes Later
"Hyuuga, you're 5 minutes later then I was and you look like you're going to drop dead and die. I thought you were better than this. Plus, I was holding back a lot."
Natsume couldn't do anything but glare at the girl for he was too tired to do anything. Finally after a while of Mikan staring at Natsume panting, "You ran, no, sprinted one bloody round in 1 minute and your pace didn't even slow a bit. How in bloody hell do you want me to keep up?"
"Your stamina needs to be worked on. I'll do nii-chan a favor. Everyday Hyuuga, 4am. School gate. We do stretching until 4 15am then start running. Now come on, Jin-Jin's going to get mad."
Yayyyy. Okay… so my plan is to finish this story then continue with all my others. So yeahhh. I think you'll be seeing a lot more of this story a lot sooner than usual :)
