Hey people!! thanks for all your support! I promise that I'll make this story worthwhile so please keep on reading! I'm planning on making many...interesting, I guess?...parts, ok! I'm also planning on adding this idea that I've had for a long time, but not right now. When I put it promise to tell you, ok! Hope you like this chap more than the 1st one. So here goes:
chapter 2:1st mission together: success or Failure?
Mikan's dream:
"No! No, please, no!" She could see her mom lying in her own blood bath, hear her whisper her last words, just loud enough that she could hear them. But he couldn't. He wasn't supposed to. "Mikan, listen to me. Don't move, don't make a sound. Don't cry, ok? If you do he'll find you and your brother. I'm sorry, it'll be over soon. I love you, Mikan, my little tangerine. I love you." then her eyes closed and she lay still, cold, with no breath, no air.
"That's what you get for trying to escape, you sure are lucky though. If the rest of your family had been here I would have killed them in front of you." He laughed an evil laugh that penetrated through her, and she couldn't help but to let out a shiver. "Bitch, you think I would let you get away with that? Of course not! I might yet have a hope for your kids, but its to soon to tell."
she felt the warm breath beside her calm down a little. "Sis, if he ever comes for us use the knife. Here. You're closer." And then, when she turned back she saw him walking to them. That didn't happen in real life thought Mikan. She couldn't move. He was coming and she couldn't move.
Persona heard the screams and ran to the room. He was thinking the worst things while he ran. Only a nightmare, he noticed. Only a nightmare. He let out his breath, which he hadn't noticed he was holding before. She was clawing and kicking the air as if she was fighting death itself. Maybe she was, he thought. Maybe she was in her dream. He got closer trying to wake her up. Instead he got a fist in the eye.
Mikan woke up with a start when she felt her fist make contact with something. "Oh no! Persona are you okay? I'm really sorry. You see I was having a really bad dream and then--"
"Just shut up, ok? Shut up! I cant believe this! I fell because of a tiny little punch that my own niece gave me! Fucking A!" Persona cut her off. "Oh, and its time for you to start getting ready for school. Maybe later I'll go check up on you. Maybe. What the hell were you dreaming about?"
"Really? Its time already? Oh my God! I have to get ready! Don't you have any work to do? Oh, well, whatever. Out so I can get dressed! Out, out, out!" Anything to not answer, must do anything to not answer! He doesn't know that onii-san is missing or how mommy got killed!
He let himself get pushed out the door. He had noticed her reluctance to answer and how she avoided his question. He'd just let it slide for now. After all, everything comes in its own time, right? She'd tell him when she was ready. So he just had to wait. After all, tonight he was planning to make it their first mission together. But what alias would he give her? Maybe he'd make her the opposite of her partner...yeah that sounded alright. The White Cat partner of the Black cat.
When Narumi got to his home room he told Mikan to wait outside until he called her. Hehe...here's a nice surprise for all his students! "Good morning class! If you don't listen I'll release my pheromones! So today is gonna be interesting-! Class we have a new student! Mikan you can come in and introduce yourself now!"
As soon as Mikan walked in all the guys couldn't help but stare. She looks sooo cute in the uniform!thought all the boys, except one. "Um, good morning. My name is Mikan Sakura, nice to meet you all! Please--" thats when she noticed Ruka and Natsume. "Hey Polka-dots. Long time no see." answered Natsume when she gaped at them for a few seconds.
"W-wh-what the heck?! What is that perverted old man doing here! And why is his animal-lover/escaping-helper friend here, too! Stop calling me polka-dots! Narumi-sensei! You didn't tell me they'd be here!" Exclaimed Mikan. She couldn't believe it! By now every one was staring or glaring at her. But they wondered what polka-dots was referring to. "i am not perverted and I most definitely am not an old man. And me and Ruka, thats the friend you were referring to, come to this school, and this class too. Why so mad? Oh I know! Did ya miss me?"he replied with an almost scary calm expression.
"Me miss you? Ha, never! In your dreams, jerk!" she answered more calmly back.
"Hey, who the hell do you think you are, you skank? Talking to my Natsume like that! And calling poor wonderful Ruka all those awful names! You bitch!" shrieked a certain green haired girl.
Mikan just stared at her and asked aloud "Whats it to you Permy? Who cares if I talk bad about them? I'm not lying so it really doesn't matter. Oh, and instead of wondering who I am, maybe you should tell me who the fuck you are to come and insult me when I haven't done a single damn thing to you! If I am a friggin' skank then you're a slutty whore, bitch."
"Now, now kids! Settle down! We're still in home room you kn-"Narumi tried in vain, only to get cut off by a pretty looking black haired girl that had beautiful but cold violet eyes.
"Insult my best friend again and you're dead meet Sumire. No one calls her a baka unless its me! Or anything else, 'cause you'll be sure to pay!" Everyone stared in awe at Hotaru. She never stood up for anyone, or got mad like this over anything. This...was the first time.
"Ho-ta-ru? Is that really you?"No way! Hotaru was here, too? In this school of all places! Now maybe she had someone to talk to. Maybe...
"Of course it's me you baka! What are you doing here anyway?"
"Morons, the both of you! Hmph! She is the new student here, what else would it be?" interrupted Sumire, who by now was fuming because no one was paying any attention to her. Then she signaled Koko the mind reader. He knew what her signal meant, cause he read her mind. When the new girl stops talking and her thoughts seem worth telling, read them aloud.
"By the way, how is everyone?" Hotaru asked out of nowhere. Everyone immediately noticed how Mikan paled and couldn't look Hotaru in the eye all of a sudden.
"Um, uh. Gr-grandpa is fine. B-b-but onii-san...Hotaru onii-san is missing. He just disappeared." stuttered Mikan. She didn't respond when Hotaru asked how her mom was, and how she was coping with it all. And then when everyone thought they would just start classes, or something, to make the silence go away, they all heard a voice, Koko, reading her thoughts.
"I'm sorry, Hotaru. There's so many things I cant tell anyone. How can I tell you, or anyone, about that incident with onii-san and mom? How can I tell you that my mom was—"
"STOP! NO MORE! Stop reading them!"yelled Mikan.
"By all means, Koko, keep going. You were just getting to the best part. Her mom was...?" Sumire ordered. Koko hesitated before answering. "I can't. I just can't. Its not that I don't wanna know what happened, but there's like this barrier that doesn't let me read her thoughts. I think it is her alice or something." everyone was truly confused by now. But most of all Natsume.
"I wondered how long it would take you guys to figure it out. Sakura-san has a rare alice that I know only one other person has, or had. I haven't talked to her in years. It's called the Nullification Alice." cut in Narumi-sensei yet again. The only difference was that this time he had the entire classes attention.
"That's impossible!" stated Natsume,while standing up abruptly , clearly confused.
"Of course its not. She is a multi-alice. She has the alice of water, giving her control of anything that consists of water, such as ice, snow, water itself. And she also has the Nullification alice, which has the power to let her resist any of your alices." cut in an annoyed Persona that had come out of nowhere. "Well, enough with the small talk. Natsume, since you know the situation...well, most of it in any case, you are her new partner. No objections. From either one of you. See you later. Oh, there is a meeting after school, Natsume. More about what I told you yesterday." And just as suddenly as he came he left.
"oh! What a surprise that was! Well everyone please take a seat! It is now time for 1st period. Oh, and Mikan, you can sit next to Natsume." proclaimed Narumi. Everyone thought the same thing...What a fag!
That little episode this morning had left him confused. A multi-alice! Who would've thought it with an appearance like that? God damn, the woman could at least wear sexier underwear! Right now, though he had to focus on Persona and his assignment. He wondered, though, why exactly did Persona go to his classroom that morning? Not even on his most important mission thus far had he gone through the trouble of actually visiting him! Could it be because of his niece?
Damn, adults were annoying! "Ok, Persona. I'm here so you can come out now!" he stated with a note of irritation.
"My dear black cat! Let me tell you about this mission in a moment! Tonight, you are going to have a new partner. You don't know her. Also, she is kind of new. That little chat you and your friends had this morning was pretty interesting, by the way. But I only went to see if Mikan had any trouble. You must take care of her in school, or else if something happens, you might not come out alive."
"Very funny. You know that I obey orders. Now back to the matter at hand."
"Smart ass. Meet me at the sakura tree at nine o'clock. Here is your information packet. Go study or whatever." And that was his dismissal. Natsume wondered who the hell his freaking partner was.
Both of them arrived at the sakura tree at exactly 9. Of course, she new that he was her partner almost immediately. What bad luck, she couldn't help but think. He was the infamous Black Cat, and Natsume when he wasn't on missions. They sized each other up. Not bad, they both thought.
Natsume, or for the mission, the Black Cat, was wearing his usual mask. Also, black forces, low baggy black jeans, and a black t-shirt that fit him like a second skin. In other words, you could see all his muscles being quite clearly outlined. He had 2 silver dog tags on his neck black watch on his right wrist. His hair was the same as usual. She had to admit to herself that he looked kind of hot.
His newest partner had on a white tank top underneath a black off the shoulder shirt that had sleeves that reached her elbows and went up to right under her chest. Along with that she had on a black mini-skirt that only went up to the middle of her thigh and white forces. Her jewelery was a small cross that hung in between her boobs on a braided silver chain and a silver braided bracelet. Her hair was in a high ponytail and the top part of her face was covered by...a white cat mask. Damn, I need to know who she is, she's pretty sexy.
"Persona hurry the hell up and tell us what to do so we can get this damn mission done and over with."Natsume told Persona with a bored tone and a quick glare.
"Shut up. I decide when I tell you it. Okay, so what you have to do is go to the newest base of the AAO, infiltrate it, and grab a CD that has very important information. They'll probably have a few CD's so I'll tell you the name. Its called T.A.D.A. which stands for Traitor Agents Dead and Alive. there might also be a file on the main computer, but that doesn't really matter because all we need are the names of those agents. Now hurry your teen asses up and get me that damn CD."
at his dismissal they both left to go to the building, which they already knew where it was. They got to it pretty quickly and were surprised to find only two guards at the front entrance and that was it. Mikan took the smaller guard and pressed a few pressure points that Persona had quickly taught her before the mission. Meanwhile Natsume just burned the bigger guy so he wouldn't notice then just punched him really hard in the face.
The Black Cat went in first then motioned to Mikan that all was clear. They searched three rooms before finding the right one. There was four CD's in a case, including the one that they needed. They talked for the first time in the entire mission.
"Doesn't this seem a bit too easy?" questioned the White Cat.
"Ya know, you're right. Usually the missions are, not harder really, just a little more complex. Or at least better guarded. You'd think they'd have a base like this better guarded because of all the information inside." answered Natsume, using way more than his usual amount of words.
But you know how that saying goes 'Speaking of the devil, the devil does come'? Well... Just as they shrugged it off and turned to go...
Without a second notice, a hand slashed out and covered Mikan's/ the White Cat's mouth from behind.
Did ya like it? HUH, HUH?? Hope you did! I was thinking of writing two new stories so give me your opinion on if I should or shouldn't write them. And a name for Mikan's onii-san. Here are the summaries to those two stories:
A Second Chance: Once, they were all best friends, or at least, until one thing led to another. That was th end of it, or so they thought...Years later, they've all changed, but can Mikan, Hotaru, & Natsume get a 2nd chance at friendship, or stay enemies? With a new person include, maybe they'd become more than just friends?
Mismatched Pair: He was his majesty the king, she was a mere peasant, not special. But every one has secrets, even them. He was the most well known person in the world, she had even had her parents abandon her at birth. He was rich, she was poor. And that's all they'd ever be, or so they thought, Until one fateful night...
Hope ya liked it! Please review, and I'm starting the 3rd chapter soon, k! Thanks!
