Gakuen Alice 68

"The poisened princess enters a quiet sleep...."
Thanks To Yo-chan's alice, Yo-chan and tsubasa were able to get away from
Rui and Hayate. But Yo-chan can feel a very evil presence from far away. Mikan
and the others are in danger! The black stain created by Persona crawls over Mikan's
body, getting bigger and bigger, poisoning her....Mikan:"Will I die...?" The other
kiken nouryoku(forgot his name^^;) Tells Persona that he is goig too far, but Persona simply replies coldly that
it was an accident, and t he school know that such risks existed. Natsume:"What the hell is accident, you!!"
Natsume is extremely angry, as never seen before. Natsume:"Persona..." But his alice is stopped
by the Junior-high principal using an alice stone:"So noisy." Hotaru tries to help with her paralized body by shooting
at Persona. Persona is ready to use his alice on her, but Mikan Jumps at him once again. RUka:"Imai!" Mikan:"Hotaru watch out!"Aoi:"Mikan-chan!" Persona:"You little" Mikan: "RIght now, on Hotaru..." Persona is extremely angry and hits Mikan once again with his alice. Mikan screems to the other not to come close to her. She is afraid that this "sickness"created by Persona on her will transfer to the others if they touch. The stain on her body is geting worse. Pain allover her body, like stabbings. Persona eveliy tells Mikan he used some power on her thinking she had tried to use her alice on him. He tells her not to worry"even if others touch you, it will not affect them" Mikan is scared, she feels like her body is breaking apart but she is also angry" how dare you try to use such an awful alice on Hotaru and the others! Who are you?! Why do you do such evil...I'll never forgive you! I won't let you get you're way!"Persona:"Didn't have enough yet? next you'll die" The otehrs yell "Mikan!" they are afraid for her. Aoi is stunned by what Persona is doing. She cannot believe this is the "Kamen no kimi" she knows. But Mikan is determind to stop Persona and tells the other to run. Mikan:"To me, there is something a lot scarier than death" Hotaru:"What are you saying..." Mikan tells Natsume to take them all away. Mikan:"Only me getting finished off like this is enough...I don't want any of you to get hurt anymore" Mikan beggs them to listen to her, she wants to protect them. Persona thinks she is foolish. But Mikan:"I won't lose to you! Even if I die, I'll wontlose to you! I won't let you hurt my friends anymore!" Aoi runs to stand between Mikan And Persona. She begs Persona to stop. But Persona simply angrily tells her to "move!" Mikan is suprised of Aoi's actions. Persona:"Yuki-aoi, you too, are you
to betray me? If you are on their side then even to you I will show no mercy. Move! Don't look at me that way.
What are those eyes!" Persona remembers things that people used to say about him, being a monster because of his alice, that even though he is an alice, letting him close to other students is too dangerous...." Your presence makes my Hanazono dirty". We can see that Persona has a lot of pain and anger inside him. "Monster". But a man held out his hand to Persona:" You are not a monster. See, you are actually beautiful. Come, from now on always stay by my side, I shall make you human." Persona is angry at Aoi and says she has little value, covering Mikan. Persona:"Dissapear from my sight!" Persona is ready to use his alice again, this time on Aoi! But again Mikan stops him. Aoi:"Mikan-chan!!" Mikan hugs Persona"I won't let you hurt anyone anymore! Jii-chan!(grandfather),Hotaru, Ruka-pyon, Natsume, Narumi-sensei, everyone please, lend me your strength" In back of Mikan, the shdow of a man appears. Persona hears the words of this man"Stop giving away to hatred and dirtying these hands.." Persona's earing breaks. A man once gave this earing to Persona telling hiim to never take it off. It is a special sealing stone to protect him from his own alice. Never again shall your alice destroy your face. No one shall ever call you a monster again." Persona's alice begins to crawl over his face. He screams.They are all shocked at the sight. Hii-sama, up in the hanahimeden is laughing. Yamanouchi:"My, my. Hii-sama seems to be having a lot of fun. Are you planning some mischief?" Hii-sama:"mikan no kimi, just as I thought, such an interesting girl.I simply loosened a little the barrier around her and what a happy suprise" Hii-sama is delighted with what is happeningto Persona. Just then Tsubasa and Yo-chan come running from behind. Tsuubasa:"has someone been hurt?"But they arrive to find a blackened Mikan who lost conciousness. Lying still in Hotaru's arms. When shall her eyes open...?
