Marks of the Demon Queen

Recap of the last chapter because SillyKitty88 asked me too. ^_^

"So" he started "how are we going to explain this to the ESP" his voice was perfect, he sounded like a man and was, if wanted, able to put any woman in a trance. He wore simple black shirts and black pants. Unlike the brunette, he wore sneakers and his hair was black. You couldn't see his face because it was covered by a mask.

Yes, this man was no other than Persona, her older brother.

Ruka was walking down the brown-golden halls of Gakuen Alice. He was walking to his partners, a.k.a Mikan Sakura, room, which happens to be on the other side of the school. Ruka was wearing a light blue shirt with black pants, with black and orange sneakers.

He sighed as he walked down the halls of adoring fan girls. After 5 minutes of walking he found himself in front of stairs that lead beyond the eye can see. After climbing up 20 flights of stairs he found his way to her room panting from exhaustion.

Her room door as black with golden a golden magical circle in the center, it also had dark blue sakura petals falling from the top. It was a beautiful door.

After catching his breath he knocked on the door and waited. After 2 minutes he thought she wasn't going to answer. Just when he was about to leave the door flew open reveling an ever stoic Mikan. Mikan was wearing a black top with was slanted reveling her right shoulder and her black bra strap, while her left was covered. On the bottom it was tied to the right as if it was too big for her. She was wearing red short shots and no shoes. She also let her hair down. Ruka blushed when he saw her.

"Um hi. Sorry if I disturbed you but we have to work on our project" there was an awkward silence before she spoke "I know, I'm stuck with you for this, remember" she was mocking him, defiantly.

Ruka stepped inside and walked down the passage way before entering the living room. There were four couches making a square. There are three main colors in her room. He couches are dark blue and her curtains are red and her walls are black. Over in the right corner when you come in there is the kitchen, so the living room is in the left. Behind on of the chairs there is another hall with three doors. The walls were black with red sakura petals. One of her doors on the left side was black with a red skull and the words Stay Out printed on it, which Ruka anticipated was her bedroom. The one right next to it on the right side was the words bathroom. And the other was plain black.

"Wow nice room" Mikan just shrugged and motioned him to one of the couches. Ruka too the one right in front of her flat screen TV. Mikan came back with orange juice and chips. She laid them in front of him and they began to work. (A/N: I don't know anything about the Roman numeral vs Arabic, so you're not going to hear about that in the story. Sorry)

After 2 hours of silence they heard a knock on the door. "Where you expecting somebody" Mikan asked as she eyed the door. Ruka shuck his head and watched as Mikan walked to her door and he followed suit.

Ruka's POV

I watched as Mikan opened the door only to reveal Natsume and the others. Mikan immediately slammed the door in their faces. I sweat dropped, she was just like Natsume and Hotaru, cold. I heard them knock again, but Mikan didn't answer, and I could tell she wasn't going to.

Natsume's POV

That twat, how dare she slam the door in my face! She should be happy I even decided to come to her room, I mean who would willing climb those damn stairs. I knocked again and waited, usually he door would fly open immediately, but this chick is making me wait, me.

I heard Koko chuckle behind me along with Kitsu.

The door creaked open. I was about to slap the bitch but I realized it was Ruka. "Hey guys" he started "why are you hear?"

"What, we can't come and see how our friend is doing" I asked.

"No, that's not it, it's just that I don't think you should come knocking at her door like that" he sounded cautious.

"Well I go wherever I want to go and nobody can stop me"

"Really now" I turned to see Mikan leaning against the door with her leg behind to other and he hands crossed under her chest.

"Yeah what about it, got a problem?"

"Why yes I have a problem."

"And what would that be?"

"My problem is that you demand to go place that do not want you."

"Well let me tell you something princess" my face drew closer to hers. From the corner of my eye Ruka was biting his nails throughout this whole thing. When he was done, he was biting Hotaru's nails which cause him to get the taste of the baka gun 4g.

"I have ever girl in this academy chasing after me, so don't pretend you're not one of them" I drew back and smirked. She was going to be just like the other girls soon enough.

Hotaru's POV

I watched with interest as that idiot try's to flirt with her. I noticed Ruka was biting my nails so I just shot him with my baka gun 4g. "I have ever girl in this academy chasing after me, so don't pretend you're not one of them" I wanted to slap him but that would be animal abuse. Saw Mikan smirk, she grabbed Ruka by his collar and throw him into her hall. She then backed up and slammed the door in his face.

My and her are going to be good friends.

Classroom, Next Day

Normal POV

It was the usual, nothing out of the ordinary whatsoever. The usual sea of fans, the insults being thrown, and Luna. Yes she somehow managed to survive to animals and humiliation. As soon As Mikan got to class it started.

Luna walked up to her with her sea of boys behind her. Most of them are her past boyfriends and in the wrestling club, so they are big and buff. Luna was wearing a tank to so shot that it could be mistaken for a bra, she was wearing a skirt so short that it barely even covered her ass. She was wearing those shoes with the spikes all around it. Mikan was wearing a dark blue skirt with a black cutoff top, it revealed her shoulders, and on the side was like cloth and it was connected to her top, she was wearing silver flats. Mikan's and Luna's hair were down (A/N: imagine the top like Anna's in Frozen when she was at the party)

"Well what do we have here, it's a fiancé stealing slut" she grinned with her 'white' teeth. Mikan was staring at her like she was the next worst virus, which by the way she was. Luna was getting pissed at her lack of reaction.

"Boy's" she said sweetly "would you mind sending her to her grave for me please" she batted her long fake eyelashes and the guys went wild. They rushed at her with all their speed and might. Mikan sighed and cracked her neck. One boy came in front of her and tried to punch but she caught his arm and twisted it making him screw am in pain and pass out. Five others came rushing at her so she grabbed the unconscious guys arm and threw him, with one arm, at the others.

Another one came behind her and she gave him a round house kit, sending him flying to the wall.

He others stared at her before running out the room, because the risk of losing their life over Luna was not worth it. Mikan walked to her seat and class began.

Time Skip to P.E

The girls were wearing red shorts and a white top, while to boys whore a gray shirt with black shorts.

The boys go first and the girls watch, then they switch. As they bots ran they track the girls cheered like crazy for their favorite people. As the boys came in the girls sounded them. Only two people walked right pass them. Mikan and Hotaru walked to their spots on the track while the teachers tried to calm them down, key word tried.

Mikan turned to Hotaru "how you can stand being with them" she said while pointing her thumb at the boys.

Hotaru was taken back for a moment before she answered "well, I think of them as money makers more than friends"

"I never asked if they were your friend, I asked how you can stand them"

"Well I mostly just ignore them whenever things like this happen"

Mikan nodded and then started to stretch. Hotaru looked at her before following her lead. After five minutes of stretching Hotaru was exhausted and she didn't start running. Mikan watched as she tried to catch her breath.

Hotaru looked at her and their eyes met. They stayed like that for gods knows how long. Mikan broke contact and walked away leaving a confused Hotaru in her wake.

"Alright class gather up" said Persona. All the commotion stopped instantly leaving a defying silence.

"Now we are going to test your powers and see what you can do" yeses could be heard from the class and some even cursed under their breaths.

"Now" he raised his hand and it glowed a bright black light and in a second something came crashing into the ground. When the dust cleared, what stood in front of them was a gigantic crystal ball.

"I want everyone to pair up with their best friend" Persona instructed. Everyone was pairing up with friends and family. Natsume went with Ruka, Koko with Kitsu, Yuu with Sumire, Anna with Nonoko, yep everyone had a pair except Hotaru and Mikan. Hotaru walked over to Mikan and stood there by her side, Mikan knew what it meant, and they were know partners.

"We will be having a battle to test your strengths and magical power" the class cheered. Just then Persona started to emit an evil aura.

"And your opponent will be the person right next to you."
