A/N: I apologize ahead of time to anyone who doesn't like this chapter. I didn't describe the fight scene, I skipped ahead a few minutes. I like how this chapter turned out. Please read and review.

Last time: He was completely immobilized. I reigned in my power and the temperature returned to normal. I kicked open the gates and they flew off their hinges. I heard alarms go off somewhere, but ignored them.

"Later Narumi."

I said before running through the gates and away from Alice Academy.

-Natsume-

'I wonder just who that girl was? She was a lot different than I thought she was when I first saw her.'

I thought as I watched the teacher blab about the lesson. I looked down a row at Mikan who was furiously trying to write down everything the teacher said.

'Idiot.'

I thought and started comparing the girl I'd seen when I woke up to Mikan.

'She's obviously not a crybaby. She seems to be able to take care of herself unlike Mikan. And she has better sense in patterns than Mikan. She was wearing skull and crossbones whereas Mikan's wearing polka dots again.'

I thought then blushed when I realized I was thinking about girls' underwear patterns. I looked out the window and sighed to myself. I blinked in surprise when I saw the girl from earlier walking down the path towards the gates with Narumi following after her.

'Where is she going?'

I wondered as I watched as she was stopped by the security guard. She pushed past him and heading for the gate only to be pulled back by the security guard. I saw the girl grabbed the security guard's hand and flip him over her back.

'Damn.'

I thought as I watched her turn back to the gate only to see it was blocked by Narumi this time. I saw Narumi shake his head then I saw the girl charge at him.

"Hey Natsume, you coming?"

Someone asked and I turned to see Mikan looking at me. I noticed class was over and everyone was heading to their next class.

"Yeah."

I said standing up. I turned back to the window only to see the gates fly off their hinges and the alarms went off.

'She can't possibly think she can escape.'

I thought before I saw the girl run out of the gates and disappear into the woods surrounding the school.

-Ice/Hana-

'I should have known it wouldn't be that easy.'

I thought as I ran through the woods. I was really getting tired of being chased all the damn time. When I heard the footsteps behind me get closer I jumped up into the trees and hid amongst the shadows. When they ran past I sighed in relief.

"Nice move."

A voice said and I froze. I turned to see a very pale man with spiky black hair and cold eyes hidden behind a white masquerade-like mask. He had rings on each of his fingers and an earring hanging from his ear. He was wearing a large black coat over his pants which were also black. He was wearing a pair of black high heeled shoes and black lipstick.

'Even if he was good enough to have found me, he wears way too much black.'

I thought before standing up on the branch I was on.

"Let me guess, you were sent to take me back too?"

I asked crossing my arms over my chest and leaning against the trunk of the tree.

"That I have."

He said and I sighed.

"Tell me something, why is it I'm not allowed to leave?"

I asked and his eyes widened a bit.

"Because you contain an ability that normal humans must not be allowed to know about."

He said and I sighed.

"So I have to stay in that Academy just because they're afraid of how normal humans will react once they find out there are people out there with powers?"

I asked and his eyes widened once again.

"I'll tell ya what. You manage to beat me and I'll go back."

I said with a smile before jumping from the tree and landing in a crouch on the ground. I heard the man land a couple of feet behind me and turned to face him with a smile.

'There has only been one person able to beat me and he's the one who taught me everything I know, and that was my brother. There's no way this guy can beat me.'

I thought as the black clad man charged at me.

-Persona-

I was shocked that this girl understood so much about the Academy with having only been within it's gates for a couple of minutes. She wasn't allowed to leave, and I wasn't going to let her.

I jumped back when she sent a shard of ice at me.

'Seems like she has perfect control over her Alice.'

I thought as I charged at her once again. The school wanted her back alive so I refused to use my Alice, but this fight was drawing out too long.

"What's wrong? Can't handle me?"

She asked and my eyes widened as an image of my younger sister flashed through my mind. I shook my head to clear it. There was no way, my sister was dead. The school had made sure of that.

"Enough of this."

I said before appearing behind her and using a small portion of my Alice hoping to bring her to her knees to be able to take her back, but when she remained standing I used more of it. She knocked my hand back and turned to glare at me.

"Don't touch me so casually."

She snapped and my eyes widened in disbelief.

'She has an Ice Alice, then why was she not affected by my Alice?'

I wondered. The only person I knew that wasn't affected by my Alice was my sister and that was because she'd been exposed to it when we were younger and I was training her.

I heard the girl cry out and looked up to see her holding her side and blood seeping through her fingers. I looked around to see the others who had been sent to look for her were coming this way and one had shot her.

'Idiots! They were told not to use their guns because the school wanted her back alive.'

I thought angrily before walking up to the girl and placing my hands on her shoulders. She growled at pushed them away and in that instant I saw her eyes change from ice blue to a dark red. My eyes widened as I realized who this girl was.

"Persona-sama."

One of the humans said as they came up to me. I quickly picked the girl up and threw her over my shoulder before heading back to the Academy, ignoring her repeatedly beating my back.

I stood against the wall watching as the ESP and principals of every level of the Academy regarded the girl brought before them.

"What is your name girl?"

One of the principals asked and the girl glared up at them.

"Why the hell should I tell you?"

She asked and gasps were heard around the room from the humans watching. No one talked to the ESP and the principals like that without being punished.

"I'll ask again."

The same principal asked, their voice hard.

"What is your name?"

They asked and I looked at the girl standing in the middle of the room holding her side. She glared up at them before a smirk appeared on her face.

"Ice."

She said before I felt the temperature drop and saw ice spread from where she stood to the floor. It crawled along before it climbed up the walls and headed for the principals and the ESP.

"Restrain her!"

One of them yelled and the girl was suddenly pinned down by one of the humans before she froze them solid.

"Persona!"

One of the ESP yelled and I mentally cringed before walking over to the girl that reminded me so much of my sister and pinned her down. She tried to freeze me, but it didn't work.

"Her Alice is too dangerous to go unrestrained. Put these on her then take her to her room."

An ESP said before the room was emptied. I looked at the restraints that were given to me and sighed. They were really powerful ones.

I picked up an earring that had a blue blood gem hanging from it and pushed it through her ear, thankful that it was already pierced. Then I put a silver earring with a flower carved into the metal next to it. I put a silver ring with a blue blood gem set in the middle on her right hand's pointer finger, then picked up the marker gun. I'd personally experienced her power and knew that even with all these restraints and the mark I was about to give her her power would still be very dangerous.

She screamed as soon as the needle touched her, but I held her down as I drew the mark on her cheek below her left eye. When I was done she'd passed out and I sighed as I wiped the blood from the mark on her cheek. I picked her up and carried her to her room. I didn't like the fact that she was staying in such a rundown place, but couldn't do anything about it. I laid her down on the bed, thankful someone had already cleaned her room and changed the bed for a sturdier one. I turned and was about to leave when I heard the girl say something in her sleep. At first I didn't believe I'd heard her right, but when she said it again there was no denying what I'd been debating.

"…Rei…"

I turned and looked at the girl lying on the bed in disbelief. The school had told me they'd killed her. They'd even brought in her body to show me proof, and yet she was right here, alive.

"Hana."

Her name escaped my lips before I could even think about stopping them. I felt tears in my eyes and left the room when I heard the dormbot coming. I stood in a tree looking back at her window. She was alive, my sister was alive, and she was here at the Academy.
