Chapter Sixteen: Epilogue

"We'll... stay..." Mikan said, sadly. She felt bad that she had to leave her friends and never see them again. She was going to miss Hotaru, miss Ruka, miss Kamsi. Miss everyone. A single tear drop rolled down her cheeks as she wiped it away quickly. Natsume patted her on the back, knowing very well how she felt. "How long do we have to stay in this school for?" Mikan asked with a quiet voice.

"More than eight years, I suppose." Narumi told her. "Don't cry, I think the principals will allow me to make an exception for you two to continue your job as a singer. At least maybe once every two weeks you'll be able to do your career."

Mikan brightened at once. "Then..."

"No, you may not visit friends. You are only allowed to continue your career, and sing in the audience. You will not speak of anything related to your personal life, like this school, your Alices and what not. As soon as your job of the day is over, you will immediately return to school grounds." Narumi said, shaking his head.

"But we already told Kamsi-chan that we had Alices." Mikan mumbled.

"Yes, well, that's a good thing because she has accepted it, and she will be able to help you if suspicion rises." Narumi smiled. "And since you are not yet an official student, I will allow you to go back to your manager to explain what has happened. You might as well say your good byes."

Natsume smirked. "You are a good man." he said as he grabbed Mikan by the wrist and pulled her up, rushing out of the school.

Meanwhile, Hotaru and Ruka had finally found the Alice Academy, but they had just missed Natsume and Mikan who ran out twenty minutes ago. They breathed in and out heavily, trying to catch their breath. "We finally... arrived!" they gasped. They climbed over the fence and tried to walk into the school, but a teacher all of a sudden appeared in front of them and they shrieked. "He... he just popped up in front of us!!!" Ruka cried, scared.

The teacher frowned at them. "What are children like you doing here?" he asked suspiciously. "Are you spys?"

"Spys? Hell no! I would say you were a villain who could manipulate the minds of others!" Hotaru cried, still shocked. "I demand to know where Mikan and Hyuuga is!"

"Mikan? Hyuuga? The kids who escaped last time?" the teacher muttered angrily. "As if they would come back here."

"Think so, teach? Well you better wake up and give us back our friends!" Ruka growled.

"Your friends? I don't know where they are, so have a nice day." the teacher grunted as he was about to dissappear into the school. But, Narumi stepped out and scolded him. "You shouldn't treat our new friends like this. You see, they also have a beautiful Alice that is blooming, and will become a great power once learned how to control."

"Them? Alice?" the teacher asked, surprised.

"Yes, that's right."

Immediately, the teacher seized Hotaru and Ruka and brought them into the school building as he plopped them down on the couch. After the Narumi and the teacher explained everything about Alices, Hotaru and Ruka still didn't want to become a student in the school. But one sentence stopped them from struggling. "Mikan and Natsume are students here as of either today, or tomorrow."

"Mikan?"

"Natsume?"

"Yes, that's right. Now then, are you two willing to stay or what?" Narumi asked them, handing a cup of tea to them.

"I'll stay." Hotaru said immediately.

Ruka stared at her as if she was crazy. "And you?" Narumi asked him.

"Uh... well... I guess I'll stay too..." Ruka mumbled, undecidedly.

Narumi and the teacher beamed. "Glad you're staying! Now let me announce to the principals we've got four new students!" Narumi said cheerfully as he jumped off his seat and was about to run out the door before Hotaru grabbed hold of him. "Wait."

"Yes?" he asked.

"Where's Mikan and Hyuuga?" she glared at him, thinking he might've just tricked her and Ruka. "You weren't lying to us, were you? And you still haven't even told us what our Alices are."

"Oh don't worry about it!" Narumi chuckled. "Since they weren't official students here, I let them go back to the outside world to say their goodbyes and explain to their manager. And you'll find out what your Alices are during class, since you'll have many chances of using them."

Back with Mikan and Natsume, they had just finished explaining to Kamsi, and Kamsi was in a state of shock. When she finally grasped the situation she smiled happily. "So you'll be able to come back to singing once every two weeks or so?" she asked happily. "Thank god! I thought you two would be taken away from me!!" She brought them close to her and hugged them tightly.

"Then, bye, Kamsi-chan! We have to go say bye to our class too." Mikan smiled, waving as she and Natsume left.

They ran to their school and bolted up the stairs, throwing the door open quickly, letting it smash against the wall. "Sensei!" Mikan cried.

"Sakura-san, Hyuuga-san. You are late." the teacher frowned.

"No, we're not late." Natsume stated. "We're leaving."

"Excuse me?" the teacher asked. "What do you mean you're leaving?"

"We have to transfer schools again." Natsume explained as Mikan looked around the room for Hotaru and Ruka, but didn't see them. She looked at the teacher with a questioning face and asked, "Where's Hotaru and Ruka?"

"I don't know. They said they needed to go to the bathroom forty minutes ago and they're still not back yet." the teacher explained.

"Oh... okay. Well, we came to say our farewells." Mikan smiled, bowing with Natsume as they said bye. The class got out of their seats, went over to them and hugged them tightly crying, "We'll miss you, Mikan, Natsume! We'll still come to your concerts to see you!! Bye!!" A few had even started sobbing as they wished them good luck and said bye.

When Mikan and Natsume walked back to the school, Mikan started crying and Natsume hugged her for a while. They arrived at the school thirty minutes later and received their class number. The class president came to pick them up and brought them to their class. When they stepped in front of the class, the class erupted. "What? Another two students? There were already two new students! What's up?!"

Mikan had her head dropped low and Natsume wasn't even looking at the class. Because of this, they failed to notice the familiar faces of their bestfriends who were smiling at them in the back. They introduced themselves and was assigned a seat. Mikan kept telling Natsume she missed Hotaru and Ruka, and Natsume kept trying to comfort her.

Hotaru and Ruka, who were watching were tired of this and bonked them on the head. Natsume and Mikan looked up at them and their eyes grew so wide, their eyes almost popped out of their eye sockets. "Hotaru... Ruka... What are you two doing here?!" they cried.

"We're students, dummy." Hotaru smiled.

"Mou, Hotaru!" Mikan huffed, puffing her cheeks out.

Hotaru continued to smile and said, "I'm glad we're together again."

"We're here, Natsume, Mikan." Ruka smiled gently.

Natsume and Mikan's eyes became wide again as Mikan started tearing. "I missed you too, Hotaru, Ruka!!!!!!!!!!" she wailed, throwing herself at Hotaru and Ruka, hugging them. Ruka grabbed Natsume and the four of them formed a group hug, as they repeated the words, "I'm glad we're together again. Never again will we be seperated."

"Never. Because we're destined to stay together."
