Natsume's P.O.V

Mikan scampered away from me to go get her math homework while I went to go get us something for us to drink. I had grabbed my tea and her coffee and made my way to our Sakura tree. I was sitting under the tree, basking in the warmth, until a high pitched voice snapped me out of my trance.

"Natsume-kun," said Luna as she skipped over to me. She bent down to show her cleavage and game me a -shutter- "sexy" smile. Yeah..it was anything but.

I glared at her. "What do you want?" I ask her.

"You need to be mine," she purrs.

"I would rather marry Koko then have to be near you another second."

"No," she said as she touched my neck. "You want to kiss me. You love me and me alone." she says as she uses her Alice on me. I nod my head and she sits next to me and wraps her arms around my neck. I place my hands on her bony waist, mentally cringing at how wrong it feels. I don't want to do this, but she has control of me. She kisses me, her mouth tasting of toothpaste and bubble gum, and I respond. I kiss her until we both pull back for air. Im screaming inside my head, trying to get out.

I put my head in my hands and overpower her Alice with the Alice stone that Mikan gave me. She stands up and stumbles back, fear flashing through her eyes.

"Get away from me. Never. Get. Near. Me. Again." I spit at her as fire surrounds me. She looks at me, and then runs away. I get my cell phone out, and see that Mikan called. I call her back but she doesn't answer. Sighing, I get up and head towards the classroom. I open the door to see the room was cleared out except for my friends.

"Where is Mikan?" I ask.

"Don't know and don't care," says Tsubasa.

"What the hell are you talking about?" I ask, angry.

"She just doesn't get it. She is so innocent while we all went through hell. We all suffer from physical and emotional injuries, yet she is fine. Why did we have to take the fall while she remains unburned?" asks Nonoko.

I look at them, disappointment evident on my face.

"There are things she never told you. They did some awful things to her. Stop treating her like dirt, she saved all of your lives." I say.

They got guilty looks on their faces, shame setting in.

"She was our friend and we weren't treating her right," said Ruka.

"We should all do something special for her!" yells Anna.

Everyone nods their head in agreement. I take out my phone and call her again. Right outside the door, I hear the happy tune of her cell. I open the door and find her pink phone laying there, ringing happily.

I smile, thinking she must have dropped it when she left, but my smile falters when I see tiny droplets of water. I put my finger over it and lick it. That's not water, that's salt water. Those are tiny tears. I put two and two together. She heard what they said about her.

'What if she say what you and Luna were doing?' says a voice in my head.

'Who the hell are you?' I ask mentally.

'Doesn't matter. What if she saw you?'

'There is no way…' I think.

There is a noise that sounds like chuckling.

'Well, then why isn't she running to you like she usually would?' it asks. It does have a good point. There is only one thing she keeps from me, and even if she doesn't tell me, she TELLS me that she has a secret. I respect her for that.

I have this pit in my stomach at the truth behind those words. I head back into the room and stand there, staring off into space.

"Hyuuga, are you okay? You look like you saw a ghost," says Tsubasa.

"We need to find Mikan. Now." I say.

We split up and have look everywhere, yet we don't find her. I sit down on her bed and hold my head.

" We will find her," says Koko. Hotaru and Ruka nod in agreement. Anna and Nonoko come in out of breath.

"We cant find her anywhere," says Anna. I let out the breath I didn't know I was holding.

Suddenly, the windows blow open and a note floats in and falls on the floor. I pick up the pale yellow paper, and sit down on the bed. It reads:

Dear Natsume,

I want to take this opportunity to thank you and your friends for you help. You both hurt that cute little Kitten and I found her right where I wanted her. She told me she wanted me to ' "Make it all go away'" so I did. While you are reading this, an unconscious Mikan has been loaded into a limo and if you look out the window of her room now, you can see it.

I run to the window and see that the writer is correct. I see a limo pulling out of the gate.

" N!" I scream, my heart shattering as I see that car drive away. I see a hand come out of the sunroof, waving before it goes out of view, leaving the academy behind. No. no. no. no. no. no. no. no.

She cant be gone. This is all just a sick and twisted joke. She just has to be hiding somewhere and she will pop out. The joke is on us… I sit back down on the bed and let out a shuttering sigh before I continued reading.

Knowing your mind as well as I do from all the years of manipulation, you will probably be in a severe state of denial. I want you to know that yes, this is all your fault. You ruined a perfectly good girl. Now it is my turn to not just ruin, but destroy her. She will be completely unrecognizable by the time I finish her. The academy she is going to is one of the cruelest. The believe that you can torture discipline into everyone.

But at her new school they will do something different to her. She is a very special case considering her Alice. Oh, I don't think she ever told you her second Alice. She has SEC which is the single rarest Alice in the world. That was her secret that she never told anyone, not even you. Anyway, back to what I was saying. They are going to experiment on her. We think that the Ice Alice can be used for more… physical things then previously thought. We are going to see if we can freeze her heart, and she can still be breathing and active, yet she cant feel a thing.

I hope that you remember the last time you saw her smile, because it might be the last time she ever does. I hope that you know that in 48 hours there is a chance that she will be dead.

I hope you can live with that for ever day for the rest of your life.

Your loving, caring, and trustworthy teacher,

Persona.

I crumpled the paper in my hand and dropped it to the floor. My friends looked at me, knowing that there was definitely something bad happening.

Koko looked at me, horrified, the truth sinking into him. I gave him a look. He gave me the smallest nod. We wouldn't tell them the true horror that was in the letter. We would give them the main story, not the whole thing. The whole truth was to horrifying to tell them.

"What is it? How bad is it?" asks Hotaru.

"She's gone. She transferred to an academy in a remote place. She isn't-" I couldn't finish. My voice cracked.

"She isn't coming back," finishes Koko.

The look on everyone's face was enough to break you heart. They looked so sad. So guilty. So lost.

What have we done?

Mikan's P.O.V

I got ready for school. Took a shower, got dressed in my new uniform, did my make up, and when I was done Persona was waiting for me.

"Im taking you to meet the leader of this school," says Persona. I don't say anything, but mentally a thousand questions are rolling through my head.

We walk down a long hall, that has classrooms on each side, until we get to the end, which is a giant black door. Persona knocks once and the door is opened by a girl, younger then me, who scowled when she saw me but opened the door for us to come in. We didn't even have to say anything, she just led us down to another black door and knocked.

"Come in," said a deep, husky voice. The door swung open to reveal a completely red and black room. The floor was black, the walls were red. There were two couches, one red and the other black. There was a gigantic desk that had a laptop on it and scattered papers. But the room was something I wasn't paying attention to.

There was the boy, yes boy, who was sitting at the desk. He was around my age, so about 15, maybe 16. He had piercing grey eyes that where the exact shade of a cloud before a storm. He had a sharp nose, high cheekbones and a curvy mouth that seemed to be a permanent scowl. He had shaggy dirty blonde hair with black highlights and his ears were pierced 3 times on bottom and 4 on top. He was a bad boy, simple as that.

When he saw me, his expression changed. it looked at me in something like shock, maybe bewilderment, before it went back to its scowl.

"This is the Kitten I was talking about. This is Mikan Sakura." says Persona.

"Leave her here with me. I will take her to class when im done." he commands and Persona nods his head and leaves. We stare into each others eyes for a while until he averts his gaze.

"I am the leader of this school. My name is Hayate, but I go by Hate. My Alice is ice and I will be the one who is going to experiment on you," he says as he walks around his desk. I nod my head as my eyes lock on his.

"Sit down in my seat. This is going to hurt like hell." he says simply. I do as he says and sit in his chair.

"Im not touching your flat chest, but I need to put my hand over your heart. So if you try to hit me, so help me god I will hit you back," he says. I just blink up at him, to mentally exhausted from the last 3 days events to say anything.

He puts his hand on my heart and it get colder. It feels nice at first, but then it gets colder and colder. It starts to pinch, then burn, then im crying out in pain, hunched over with his hand still over my heart. I can hear ice covering and cracking and cover as it is melded over my heart. Then just like someone turned off a switch, the pain disappears. I don't feel sadness or pain. I don't feel loneliness. I don't feel happy. There just…isn't really anything there. Hate looks down at me and removes his hand.

"It worked," I croak.

He just stares at me. "You are the first one to survive this," he said. I smile emotionlessly, no feelings behind it.

"I always have been a pretty strong person." I say. He gives me a smirk. His smirk looks just like Natsume's. the thought of Natsume makes my chest hurt and I cringe and hold my chest.

Hates eyebrows crease and he puts his hand on my back. Then suddenly his confusion clears and he looks down at me.

"Oh. I almost forgot. When you start to feel, if you ever do, then the ice around your heart will start to crack. You wont live. That is only when you start really, well, feeling again." he says to me.

"Hate?" I ask.

"What?"

"Why me?" I ask.

He is silent for a second.

"Because I said so," he says finally, trying to make him seem more authoritive. I roll my eyes and start to walk away before I get dizzy and the world becomes black. Before I hit the ground, I feel warm arms catch me and some words whispered into my ear. But I don't know who it is or what they said, but then again, it doesn't really matter.

Hate's P.O.V

When she walked in I was stunned. I am the leader of this school. I am the most powerful. Yet the second she walked in, I wanted to just bow down to her. Her wish was my command.

'Im really going to hate to have to kill a girl as beautiful as you,' I think to myself as I sigh. I order the Goth freak to leave and tell her to sit in my chair. She does as she is told and I freeze her heart. I never thought she would live, but she did. She was truly amazing.

Then she collapsed. Of course I caught her before she hit the ground, but what shocked me was how worried I was about her and her well being. It was almost scary to me. I laid her down on my couch and moved some stands of her long brown hair out of her angelic face. I just wanted her to look up at me with those big chocolate colored eyes that ha specks of gold. But she just continued to sleep peacefully. I sighed and stood up, but she grabbed my hand in her tiny one. Well, one more minute of creepily staring at the angel in front of me while she is sleeping wont kill anyone…

I lean my cheek on the palm of my hand as I rest my elbow on the couch. I just stare at her, and it gives me a sense of peace. I don't realize it, but my arm lowered until my head was resting on her stomach, and I fall fast asleep.
