#33: Gakuen Alice (Natsume & Mikan)
...xXx...
Even without looking at the clock, she knew midnight was coming. While looking up at the night sky, she admired the stars that would be her only company for her first of many painful nights. Spreading her black wings, she slowly lifted from the ground. As she closed her eyes, a soft white light emanated from her body. Her vision blurred slightly as she felt her shoulder-length hair grow a few inches. White light started erupting within her body, and she could do nothing but grit her teeth to endure the pain as her bones started tugging and pulling. When the pain stopped, a small part of her power came back to her. When everything was over, darkness filled her mind....xXx...
An hour later she woke up from the night breeze. She pulled herself up and looked up at the glass window where she knew Natsume's study was located. Up until now, he was the first human who was so against her protection. Though he didn't voice it out loud, she knew he didn't like it. Most people would be happy to have her as their guardian angel. Of course, it was only temporary until her mission was accomplished.
Shaking her head, she made her way back to the house. Today was the second day, and before she knew it, it would be over, and she would back to her own lands. She assured herself, Everything will be alright, Mikan.
Mikan didn't have enough courage to meet her mother, but she was afraid that this might be the last time she saw her. After her father dismissed her, her heart led her to her mother's palace. Standing before the gate, she contemplated whether she should go in or just leave immediately without saying anything.
"How long are you going to stand there?"
She swirled around in surprise. "Hotaru!"
Hotaru didn't step away when she made an attempt to hug her, and it left a dreadful feeling in the pit of her stomach. Her best friend always refused her hug no matter what. Could it be that she had the same feelings as hers? She shook her head mentally to dismiss the thoughts.
"Your mother asked me to come here," stated Hotaru.
"Oh…"
"Come."
Like an obedient child, she followed Hotaru. Her head was filled with unanswered questions. Why did her mother ask for Hotaru's presence? It didn't make any sense since she and Hotaru were not in the same league as her mother. It was rare for her mother to invite Hotaru since her mother had never done so before. She couldn't ponder the situation further as her name was called by none other than her mother.
Looking down at the floor, she shamefully admitted to her mother, "I failed again, Mother."
If only Mikan kept her eyes on her mother, she would be able to see her mother's love for her.
Feeling her mother's hand touched her shoulder, she looked up at her mother. While cupping her cheek, her mother kissed her temple.
"I love you no matter what happen, Mikan," her mother whispered softly as her eyes slowly watered.
Her mother hugged her tightly. "I pray for your success, my daughter."
"I will give my best to make you proud of me, Mother," she murmured to herself.
Her brown eyes slowly lightened as she made herself invisible to every human's eyes. Without haste, she made her way to Natsume's room as she wanted to make sure that he was alright. Upon entering his study, she found him sleeping soundly. Even though he was a workaholic, he never stayed up late. This was one thing she admired about him. She had watched many humans who would blindly work just for money without caring for their health even though they already had more than enough for years to come.
Stepping closer to her charge, she brushed his bangs aside and whispered, "Don't worry, Natsume; I won't let anything bad happen to you…"
