Last time: "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.

-Ice/Hana-

"No…no…no, REI!"

I screamed as I shot upright. I winced at the pain in my side and looked around. I was in that rundown room Narumi had showed me yesterday. The early morning sunshine showing through my window proved that I'd been out for a while. I looked down at my side and saw it was bandaged. I tore off the bandage and assessed the wound on my side. The bullet had just grazed me, but it still hurt. The wound was already scabbing over and I sighed before getting to my feet and heading for the door. I reached for the knob and stopped when I saw the ring on my finger. That hadn't been there before. It was then that I felt the weight of the earrings in my ear. I reached up and growled. I tried taking them out, but stopped when I got shocked.

'Fuck, they're restraints.'

I thought as I opened the door. I stopped when I saw a pink robot in an apron in the doorway.

"Oh, good morning Hana-kun. Did you sleep well?"

It asked and I growled at it.

"How do you know my name?"

I asked and it just blinked at me.

"I was informed that you would be starting classes this morning Hana-kun, so I brought you your uniform. Please change and come down for breakfast."

It said before handing me an outfit, bowing, then leaving.

"Stupid bucket o' bolts."

I said before walking back into the room and looking at the uniform I'd been given. I sighed before changing. I folded my clothes and put then under the bed, wincing when I bent over.

"Guess Narumi wasn't kidding when he said I was to be a student here."

I said to myself as I walked out of the room and down the stairs. It was only when I smelled food that I realized just how hungry I was. When I opened the door I saw the pink robot putting a plate on a shabby looking table.

"Here's your breakfast Hana-kun, I must see to the other students."

It said as I made my way to the table. I glared at the single piece of bacon and small portion of rice.

"What the hell is this?"

I asked and the robot stopped.

"Breakfast for no-stars. The higher up your star level the better food and living conditions you get."

It said before bowing and leaving.

I glared at the small portion of food laid before me and sighed.

'I'm going to have to fix my star ranking and fast. There is no way in hell I'm livin like this.'

I thought as I picked up the piece of bacon and walked out the door. I remembered the way to the Staff Room from yesterday and headed there. I needed to know what I could do to change my star ranking, and besides, if I was to be starting classes here I needed to know which ones I had to go to.

-Narumi-

"So that girl from yesterday is starting as a student today right?"

Misaki asked and I nodded.

"Yes, she should be waking up soon."

I said and Misaki and the others nodded.

"Is it true that they had to get Persona to bring her back?"

Serina asked and I nodded.

"Yes, she-"

I stopped when I heard a knock at the door. Misaki got up and answered it.

"Hey, do you know where Narumi is?"

A voice asked and Misaki stumbled back out of the way of Hana's way. My eyes widened when I saw the Alice restraints hanging from her ear, but I was shocked to see the ice blue snowflake marked onto her cheek below her left eye.

"Good morning Hana-kun."

I said and she glared at me.

"Okay will people please stop with the 'Hana-kun' already. If you must call me by my name call me Hana, nothing else."

She said crossing her arms, the movement making her earring swing.

"I'm sorry, but what business did you have in coming here?"

Jinno asked and Hana turned to glare at him.

"And who are you?"

She asked and Jinno pushed his glasses up.

"My name is Jinno, and I'm the Math teacher here at the Academy."

He said and I saw Hana smirk.

'Uh-oh.'

I thought as I saw her extend her hand towards him.

"My name's Hana, nice to meet you."

She said and Jinno looked at her hand skeptically before taking it and shaking it in greeting. He tried to pull back, but found he couldn't. He looked down at his hand and his eyes widened. His entire hand was encased in ice.

"Hana, maybe we should go somewhere else and talk."

I said and she turned to look at me.

"Be my guest."

She said as she released Jinno's hand and walking to the door and waiting for me.

I turned to look at the other teachers and was shocked to see fear in their eyes, even Jinno's. I quickly got up and went over to the door. Hana walked out into the hall and I followed after her, closing the door to the Staff Room after me.

"Alright, if I'm going to be forced to stay here know that I'm not staying in that rundown little room."

She said and I blinked in surprise at her.

"The only way to change that is to-"

"Change my star level, I know. My question for you is how do I do that?"

She asked as she leaned against the window sill and looked at me.

"Well, your star level changes depending on your behavior and your grades. You can be promoted or demoted depending on both."

I said and heard her sigh.

"Then I'm guessing my display earlier didn't help any."

She said and I shook my head.

"Excuse me a moment, I'll be right back."

She said before pushing off from the wall and walking back into the Staff Room.

I waited and just when I was about to go in after her the door opened and Hana walked out.

"I'll see you all in class."

She said before closing the door after her. When she turned to face me I was shocked to see she had a star on the collar of her uniform.

"What did you-"

I started, but she cut me off.

"I apologized, and explained why I'd acted the way I did."

She said and I looked at her in surprise.

"Right, well let's go and introduce you to your classmates."

I said and she nodded. I led the way down the hall to the classroom. The other teachers and I had decided it'd be best to become High School teachers rather than Elementary, that way we could keep an eye on Natsume and the others and now we have an even better reason.

"Here we are, your homeroom and first class."

I said and she looked up at me.

"Who's the teacher?"

She asked and I smiled.

"That'd be me."

I said and she blinked in surprise.

"Let's go."

She said and I nodded before opening the door and walking in.

"Class, we have a new student."

I said and everyone got quiet. I motioned for Hana to come in and when she was standing next to me I started to write her name up on the board until she growled at me. I held my hands up in defense and turned to face the class.

"Hello, my name is Hana. It's a pleasure to meet you all."

She said with a bow and my eyes widened. I didn't know she could be so….nice.

"You can go sit next to Mikan."

I said and Hana nodded before walking down the row of students and sitting next to Mikan.

"Well, I'll leave it to you."

I said to the sub before leaving.

-Ice/Hana-

I glared at Narumi when he'd started to write my name up on the blackboard. When he held his hands up in defense I smiled to myself. I introduced myself to the class then went to go sit by the girl who Narumi said was Mikan. When I sat next to her I realized it was the girl who had come in to see Natsume. I looked around as I sat down and saw the blonde boy with the rabbit the girl had called Luca-pyon was in my class as well, but my eyes widened a bit when I saw Natsume sitting behind me. I ignored them all and looked out the window as I propped my feet up against the desk. I heard whispers from the other students and sighed to myself.

'Stupid kids, what the hell do I look like? A monkey at a zoo or something?'

I thought as I ignored the stares I felt boring into me. Then the girl next to me poked me in my side and I hissed in pain before glaring at her. She flinched and I sighed when I realized I was doing it again.

"Sorry, you just poked a bruise. What'd you want?"

I asked kindly and the girl smiled at me.

"I'm sorry I poked your bruise. My name's Mikan, it's nice to meet you Hana-kun."

She said and I suppressed a growl. I hated it when people called me Hana-kun.

"It's nice to meet you Mikan."

I said with a small smile before looking back out the window.

"Oy, girl."

A voice said from behind me, sending shivers down my spine.

"What do you want Hineko?"

I asked Natsume without turning to look at him. I heard him growl and smirked.

"What happened to your side?"

He asked and I narrowed my eyes as I looked outside.

"Nothing."

I said and I noticed the entire class was quiet as they tried to listen in on our conversation. I looked around and glared at them. Some flinched and stepped back, others glared back. Mostly the girls glared back.

"Who do you think you are talking to Natsume-kun like that?"

A girl with short green hair asked and I looked at her boredly.

"I'm me, and who are you?"

I said and she glared at me even more.

"My name is Sumire."

She said and I nodded before looking around the room. Everyone was looking at us.

"What do you want Permy?"

I asked and heard Natsume, Luca, and Mikan giggle at my nickname for Sumire.

"Don't talk to Natsume-kun. If anyone should talk to him it's me."

She said and I rolled my eyes at her. The bell rang and I stood up.

"Whatever."

I said before walking past her, down the stairs, and headed out into the hall towards my next class.

I heard the whispers of the students around me. Most of them wanting to know what my Alice was, others wondering what I did to get so many Alice restraints put on me. I sighed as I walked to Jinno's class. I smiled up at him and he nodded back. I walked up and sat next to Mikan again. As soon as the class filed in the whispers started again and I groaned as I looked out the window.

'This is going to be a long day.'

I thought as I ignored the students around me, and listened to what Jinno was saying.

A/N: Sorry if you didn't like the chapter. It was kinda boring having her meet everyone, but it had to be written. I'll try to do better. Please read and review.
