Chapter 7: In Which They Came From the Future
Gakuen Alice is not mine
It was a rainy spring morning and Toma was jogging at normal pace when she saw a large cardboard box. Well that's weird, Toma thought as she ran right past it. She was approaching the dorms when she saw the box again. Toma glared at it and headed to her dorm room. Toma open her door to find the box in her dorm. "STUPID IDIOT WOMAN~!" Three boys screamed as they burst from the box in anger. Toma jumped back in surprise. "How'd you get in my room!" Toma shrieked. The three boys just stared at her with puzzled gazes. "But, Mama! You told us to come into the past!" the youngest boy cried. His ruby red eyes piercing Toma's own. "How'd you little boys get in my room?" Toma asked softly, trying to compose herself. The eldest son stood tall and started at his 'mother'. "My name is Akira, the one with glasses is Terrance and the obnoxious one is Daisuke."-"HEY Aki-nii that's not cool! I'm not…Whatever you just said!" Daisuke shouted, tapping his foot. "Hey shorties I still need proof. You know to 'confirm' everything." Toma stated calmly. The three brothers stared at her in silence. Crickets. Silence. Crickets. More silence. "We have a photo album, Mother. It holds each and each part of your future life." Terrance said curtly passing a large green photo album. Toma takes it cautiously; lifting its heavy cover. She began to quickly turn and analyze each page at a fast pace. "Do you think she'll forgive us, Terry, Aki-nii?" Daisuke whispered to his older brothers. "Forgive you for what, Dai-Dai?" Toma smirked, already guessing her sons nicknames. "Well you see on this Mother's Day in the future, we forgot to tell you happy mother's day. Later that day you were killed in a train bombing; never to come home." Akira said trying to hold back tears. He then wept into his sleeve, turning away from his now-younger mother.
Masato wondered why Toma wasn't returning any of his calls. Its three o'clock where is she? Masato wondered as he passed a certain bush. "Tsuji. Do you know where Toma is? I haven't seen her all day." The bush girl look equally concerned. "I thought she was with you." Now the two classmates had a tinge of fear. Just where was Toma?
"GYYYYYYYYYYAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" Tsuji pointed to the Northern forest, where a giant cloud of smoke was emerging. Tsuji held Masato's shoulder as they teleported to the vast forest. Tsuji and Masato stared at the sight. There Toma was, battling three young boys with their Alice. One of the boys spotted Masato immediately and began to charge at him. As soon as the boy got close enough, Masato activated a barrier between him and the boy. "You. You could have stopped everything. But no you had to care of some family that probably doesn't exist! Do you know why I wear contacts? It's because of YOU!" Masato and Toma look confused as Akira continues. "I use to look up to you, Akibara. Really, I did. But the way you treated women… It disgusted me to my very core. That's when you dated my own mother, broke her heart on live television and shunned my family name. That's when I learned the truth. About my real father. His name was- Terrance slammed his older brother to the ground. "We already tampered with the past enough, Akira. You could have erased your whole existence. We only came for Daisuke's sake." Terrance whispered to Akira, a murderous intention in his eyes. "Oh yeah that's right. Mama happy mother's day~!" Daisuke said clapping. Toma looked in the sky where red petals were littering the sky. It's so wonderful, Toma thought as she felt tears stream down her face. Tsuji was recording the whole thing, capturing the pure beauty of it all. Masato let Akira free, who just glared. Terrance pushed up his thinned framed glasses. "Alright Daisuke I promised you a day with mother. Time has run out; let's go before we change our history." Terrance said as he opened a time portal with ease. "I don't wanna leave, Terry! I still have lots of questions to ask about this time period. Also I wanna take a picture." Daisuke whined as he hugged his mother's waist. "No. we don't have even time. Let's go NOW." "Terry~! Please?" "No" "PLEASE TERRY WITH HOENY AND SUGAR AND CHERRIES ON TOP?" "I SAID NO" "Oh come on Terrance, it's just a photo", said Toma smiling at her middle child. "Okay, since you allowed it, Mother." Tsuji motioned the family to get closer. Terrance was blushing, while Daisuke was in the middle with Akira on his left side with their mother in the back. After taking the photo, it was really time to go. Daisuke and Toma were crying, hugging everyone, Terrance was still being a prick; trying to hurry everyone while Akira just shook Masato's hand. "I'll still never forgive you. When I'm old enough I'll come and KILL YOU." Akira whispered deadly to Masato. Masato just shook the threat off. The three brothers gave on giant hug to their mother, and then went back to the future.
