Rebelchickie: Thank you for reviewing!I thought nobody liked my story.
To those who didn't review but read the first chapter thank you so much!
I don't own Gakuen Alice
Chapter two
After their little talk, Mikan and Yuu walked hand in hand to the center of the cloud kingdom.
It is where the Stars gather to watch the humans together. It was their version of a movie night with friends.
On the way to their destination Mikan started to feel the ground shake a little. But thought that it was her imagination and dismissed the very idea of it.
Yuu too started feeling it but kept silent. It was only when they were nearing the town center and could see silhouettes of the Star did they realized it was going to be a strong earthquakes.
Mikan and Yuu lets go of each other's hand to look for a safe place they could stay until the earthquakes and the aftershocks stop.
Mikan started hearing people scream from the town center. Since earthquakes almost never happens in the kingdom.
Nobody thought of orienting the citizens what to do in case of an earthquake.
Mikan wanted to go there and help her friends but she knew that it would be useless.
Nobody would listen to her. She suddenly heard her bestfriend Hotaru yelling something. Hotaru was getting closer and closer.
"Yuu watch out!" Hotaru was yelling repeatedly.
Mikan quickly searches for her friend to find Yuu in a nearby fountain.
The floor where he was standing was now cracking. Without any second thoughts Mikan ran towards Yuu causing the boy to fall in the fountain.
Yuu hit his head and he fell unconscious Mikan landed on the cracking floors, she was about to get out when the floors gave away.
"Mikan!" Hotaru cried as she reached for her friend.
"Let go of me! You're going to fall too if you won't let go!" Mikan ordered.
"Are you crazy?" Hotaru barked.
"Yes!" Mikan hissed. She started swinging her body back and forth. Her hands started to slip Hotaru kept telling her to stop what she is doing. "Take care of grandpa." Mikan's last words to her best friend.
"Mikan you idiot!" Hotaru yelled as she threw a bracelet at Mikan's head. The bracelet bounced on top of Mikan's head. But Mikan was able to catch it.
Mikan was falling fast she was sure she was going to die.
She readied herself and closed her eyes. She knew that anytime now she would hit the ground.
She was already thinking or guessing what might be waiting for her after death. Since the stars are immortal nobody ever thinks about death.
The only time stars die is when they become a fallen. It's either they die during their fall or live out a normal life here on earth and age like humans do.
Mikan realized she was afraid of dying. But she can't really turn back the only option is to keep moving forward.
She told herself to be strong because nobody was going to be strong for her anymore she is on her own.
Several minutes passed and Mikan knew that she should have already hit the ground. Maybe she is dead… maybe she didn't feel it when she fell on the ground.
Mikan slowly opens her eyes and was speechless as she looked at a face of the most beautiful creature she has ever seen, carrying her in his arms.
He looks like an angel with blonde hair and pale skin.
"Am I dead?" Mikan asked.
"No silly. " The man laughed as he gently placed her down. "But you could've. Good thing I saw you falling from the sky. How did you fall anyway?"
"I-I don't remember." Mikan lied. She was on earth now and she knew she mustn't let anybody find out who she is. Who knows who might be this guy in front of her? He might be one of those creepy scientists who dissect aliens.
"You're an alice!" the man grinned. "I am Mr. Narumi by the way. What's your name little girl and can you tell me what kind of alice you have?"
"My name is Mikan Sakura. I really don't know what you mean by alice. " Mikan replied. She was slightly confused because fallen can't have any alices since they are branded as out casts of the stars. They don't get any favor from them and must live in earth for as long as fate will permit them.
"I know what kind of alice you have. You have a nullifying alices. C'mon Mikan don't lie to me I am on your side. I am one of the good guys." Narumi smiled.
"How did you know my alice? I honestly didn't know I have one and I am not aware that I am using it." Mikan replied.
"Well like you I am an alice as well. I have a pheromone alice and I've been trying to use it to you since the time we met. It's really obvious that you're lying." Narumi winked. "So anyway I am from the nearby kingdom name Hoshi. An alice like you will certainly have a place in there. What do you say?" he asked as he extended his hand to Mikan.
"Hoshi means star right?" Mikan asked.
"Very good!" Narumi praised. "You know the other names of your people."
Mikan paled as she moved several steps away from Narumi.
"I am sorry for scaring you. I know that you're a fallen because I met one before… It's a dead giveaway because you glow." Narumi said.
"Is she living in your kingdom?" Mikan asked.
"No… Some said she died…" Narumi answered.
Mikan bit her lower lip. Discovered in less than an hour, she didn't know where to go… she is not familiar with the place and doesn't know anybody. She has to trust this Narumi guy.
"F-fine I'll go but promise to keep my secret." Mikan said.
"I promise." Narumi replied.
Mikan offered her pinky to the blonde man. Narumi smiled as he laced his pinky with Mikan and did a pinky swear.
Afterwards Narumi asked Mikan if she has a bracelet that helps her conceal her glowing abilities.
Mikan showed him the bracelet Hotaru gave her and Narumi confirmed that it was a glowing device.
He helped her wear the bracelet on her left arm and hand in hand they walked towards the kingdom.
During the walk to Hoshi, Mikan started to shiver because of the night air. It was the first time she ever felt cold since stars are immune to cold and hot feelings. Narumi gladly gave her a cloak.
After an hour of walking Mikan found herself looking at a very huge gate that must be a hundred feet tall, decorated with huge stars carved unto both gates.
"Well come to Hoshi Mikan." Narumi smiled as he touched one of the gates. Slowly the gate opened and the guards welcomed the blonde man. The guards didn't bother to ask about Mikan.
"This place is beautiful!" Mikan gasped as they walked in the town. It was like the places where enchanted creatures lived in Mikan's fairytale books. "I bet it's more beautiful in the morning."
"It is." Narumi smiled. "Come my house is a few blocks away."
Mikan's head was moving left to right completely awed by her surroundings.
"Well here we are." Narumi smiled as he opened the gate of a mushroom looking house. The house has a finger print scanner that is used for a key.
Mikan was expecting a small house but she was surprised when she saw that the inside of Narumi's house bigger that what she expected. It has two floors and three guest rooms. You would never expect it by just looking outside.
"The dorms for little girls are closed already. Tomorrow we'll go to the alice academy and get your papers fixed so you can start your school, but for now rest. Tomorrow we need to talk about your background life and stuff before we submit it to the school." Narumi said as he led her to a guest room decorated in pink. "Don't let anybody know that you're a fallen/ star." Was the last thing Narumi told Mikan before he left her in the guest room.
Mikan sat by the bed a night gown that was folded neatly was beside her. She was trying to go over what happened. In just a few hours her life has changed. A few hours ago she was sure of her future… A star who will watch over the humans forever, but now that she became a fallen her future became uncertain.
