Gakuen Alice 29

Narumi: Since when did I begin hallucinating that I was not human….since always….probably it started when I met the love of my life…that day I began living with and emptied soul….. Narumi-sensei meets with Mikan’s grandfather who seems sad. It’s now November at Alice Gakuen, Mikan and other classmates are cleaning dry leafs on school grounds. Iinchou had the best results on the end pf term exams and therefore received the Honor-student award of 1 week holiday visit home and 3months worth of free food tickets for Central Town. All classmates area happy for Iinchou and congratulating him. Iinchou is looking forward to going home and meeting his younger sister who is now 3 years old. Until now he has only seen pictures of his sister because 4 years ago, before his sister was born, he came to Alice Gakuen and was never allowed(like all other students) a visit home. Today Iinchou is supposed to come back from his 1 week home. On their way to class, Mikan ect see student talking about a warning on the school board in the halls. The paper says there is a unknown virus attacking adult alices and if any students notice anything strange to contact school officials. Kids discussing this say it’s scary because there is a rumor that another victim who lost their alice had been found. Narumi-sensei is speaking to the class about the incident, explaining that it is still unkown if it is due to a human cause, natural or virus. And that the symptoms are that all of a sudden the victims simply cannot use their alices. For the moment no victims have appeared at school and all victims are adults.(6 victims until now) Mikan and other student talk about how scary it is if they lost their alice, especially since the cause and cure is unknown. Hotaru, who stuck a secret panda mic to Narumi is listening to his conversation with Misakia-sensei. Misaki-sensei asks Narumi how things went with B class. Narumi says that for the moment all is fine, no on is panicking. Misaki-sensei says that in the junior-high, somehow information had leaked and that things were hard, students were panicking. Narumi: “I never imagined there would be from here, and worst a junior-high victim.” Hotaru is shocked that there actually was a junior-high victime of loosing their alice. Misaki-sensei and Narumi keep walking and end up in too far for Hotaru’s mic to work, so she cannot hear the rest of their conversation. Misaki: “you’d better not be thinking of doing anything more……don’t play dumb….about these incidents, even an idiot would know what you’re thinking. If you do anything excessive, you know what will happen to her (Mikan’s) standpoint(position)….for god’s sake, just forget!(talking about something from their past)” Though Narumi keeps on joking with Misaki-sensei, in his heart he knows he should forget but cannot. Kokoroyomi, Kitsuneme and Mikan area still talking about the loss of alice. Kitsuneme:”Hey, loosing your alice, wouldn’t that also mean going home? Wouldn’t that also be nice?” Kokoroyomi:”If you think of it that way, loosing your alice isn’t so bad” MIkan:”Oh! I see” Perm get’s in the conversation calling them idiots for thinking that loosing their alice would be nice. Kokoroyomi calls her a nasty old witch, so Perm get’s angry at him. Nonoko says that being able to see her family again would be nice but wouldn’t want to loose her alice because she feels like it’s a part of her (like an arm, or piece of soul ect) and worse of all, having to leave the school would mean not being able to be with everyone anymore. Other students agree. Mikan also feels how important everyone at school is to her and all over starts the “I don’t wanna loose my alice”. Nonoko passes a comment that probably children are safe, when hearing Natsume suddenly stands up and walks away. Ruka runs after him asking him if anything happened, because he’s been acting strange lately, especially towards Mikan. Natsume remembers Rukas words:” If Natsume doesn’t smile, then I won’t smile ether.”
Natsume pretends that nothing is wrong to reassure Ruka. Mikan is still wondering why Natsume has been staying away from her lately Mikan “did I do something?....though remember countless times I was victimized…” In Tokuryoku class there is a highschool boy with long black hair, MIkan has never seen. Boy: “what the.. still no one here yet…oh wel. “looking at MIkan: “Who are you” Tsubasa and other Tokuryoku students arrive in class, but the class is filled with cigarette smoke and Mikan is laughing on the boys lap. Tsubasa is surprised. Megane: Ah Tono’s here, how rare.” Tsubasa: “Mikan get away from him now. Or you’ll get pregnant”. The boys name is Tonouchi Akira, 3rd year of High school, and representative of the Tokuryoku. *Womanizer* MIkan is surprised that he is the representative of Tokuryoku. Tono and Tsubasa are snapping at each other. Nodacchi explains to Mikan that Tono’s alice is the Amplifying alice, a rare alice that amplifies other’s alices. Though it does nothing for him, Tono is often needed as partner and used for outside jobs. Which is why he is rarely in class. Tono suddenly remember where he had heard Mikan’s name: “Ah! I though t I had heard that name before, Sakura Mikan. Now I remember, you’re Hyuuga Natsume’s partner.” Mikan wonders how he know, Misaki-senpai explains Tono often goes on outside jobs for the school so has a lot of connections for information. Tsubsa get’s angry at Tono because he thinks that since Mikan is Natsume’s partner she’s already “taken” (taken in a xxx sence of the word :p ) Tono to Mikan:”In another 3, 4 years let’s get even friendlier” Mikan:”?...ok” Silly Mikan doesn’t understand what Tono is talking about. Tono asks how’s Natsume’s health since recently he’s been in and out of the hospital a lot. Mikan didn’t know. Mikan is shocked because she had no idea he was in and out of the hospital, and remembers about the 4th type of alice and Kaname-senpai…she wonders could Natsume also be like that…Megane asks Tono if he knows anything about the alice disappearing incidents. Tono says that’s the reason why a job was cancelled and he ended up back in class. Tono almost spills the beans about a junior-high student loosing their alice but Noda-sensei makes a sign to him not to say anything, so Tono lies ans says:no way! (no students victims). Tsubasa asks if that means that it’s safe in school, Nodacchi explains in a very difficult and unsure way that it means maybe in school is safe. They ask what the “human cause” meant (remember Narumi’s explanation at beginning). Mikan repeats in her head Tono’s words that outside school is dangerous (to become victim) Iincho arrives at school from his trip home in a big fancy car. Driver:”Tobita-sama, we are almost arriving at school” Iicho: “thank you.” Iincho to himself:”1 week was very short. I wanted to stay longer with my family…but soon I’ll see Mikan-chan again, and everyone else. I should be happy.” Suddenly an old woman crosses the street in front of the car. The car almost hits her. Iincho runs out of the car and helps the woman stand by holding her hand:”are you alright?!” woman:”thank you for your help”. The woman is alright and walks away. Driver “Tobita-sama we must hurry” iincho runs back to the car thinking:”feels like that woman resembles someone…..but who….”
