I do not own Gakuen Alice!
Mikan Sakura is blind. She gets see temporarily due to an invention. When she was young, she met a nice Natsume and now, she wants to meet him again. She meets him in Alice Academy, although he is very different from the kid she met years ago.
"Hotaru!! I can't see anything! I can't see anymore!" an auburn-haired girl cried.
Hotaru cried too, but she kept encouraging her bestfriend, as she sat at the hospital room she was in.
She was 8 years old. The auburn-haired girl was Mikan Sakura. As you can see, she became blind due to an accident. An accident that changed her life forever. The accident that happened about 2 days ago.
FLASHBACK
"Hotaru!! Come on! Let's play in the garden!" Mikan shouted.
Hotaru smiled at her, "I'll just get this!"
They were playing in the road in front of the orphanage. Mikan was as cheerful as ever, her smiles warming the hearts of everyone who sees it. Mikan shares her smile to everyone. Then she would admire the world she sees through her eyes. She would sometimes, tell her bestfriend how beautiful the world she is living in. A world full of colors. A world full of happiness. A world that is perfect for her.
"Hurry up!" Mikan shouted once more.
Hotaru picked up a piece of her invention in the middle of the road. Mikan stood at the sidewalk waiting for her friend. She was smiling widely, but that was until she saw a speeding car about to hit her best friend. She cannot think anymore. Mikan ran in the middle of the road and pushed Hotaru out of the way, she was able to, but the car hit her instead.
"Mikan!!" Hotaru shouted.
Hotaru can't believe her eyes. Her only bestfriend is hit by a car. And it was her fault. Hotaru went near her unconscious bestfriend, who has blood all over her.
"Someone! Help!" Hotaru shouted again.
In a matter of minutes, an ambulance arrived and immediately brought Mikan to the hospital. Hotaru went to the hospital with Marie, a volunteer assigned to take care of the kids in the orphanage. They waited for almost a day because Mikan undergone surgery. After the surgery, the doctors told them Mikan will be blind. The impact during the accident injured her eyes.
END OF FLASHBACK
"It's my fault! It's my fault Marie-sensei!" Hotaru cried. They were outside of Mikan's room.
Marie just smiled at her and said, "Its no one's fault Hotaru. No one's."
"Sensei! She's blind now. What should I do?"
"We just need to take care of her. but we couldn't visit her for a week. Is that okay?"
"Why?"
"She needs to be treated with extra care. Don't worry. Just one week's time."
The next day,
"Doctor, has my bestfriend arrived?" Mikan asked.
The doctor replied, "She hasn't. She will arrive in one week"
"But I want to talk to her now."
"Please understand. Wait for one week. You can talk to the other patient in this ward. He injured his leg."
"Alright."
The doctor left the room.
"Hey. What's your name?" Mikan asked.
"Call me Natsume. You?"
"You can call me Mikan."
"Mikan? Tch"
"Why?"
"Nothing. Why're you here in the hospital?"
"I got in an accident a few days ago."
"Me too." Natsume said. He got back in reading his manga.
Mikan asked him a questions about himself. Natsume seems to be enjoying her company. She found out quite a few things about him. He was Natsume Hyuuga. 8 years old. He kept talking about him being an alice.
"What's an alice Natsume?" Mikan asked the next day.
Natsume smirked, "I can't really tell you, but I can show you." He created a fire ball.
Mikan kept silent. Natsume noticed this and told her,
"You need to look at it so you can really figure out what an alice is. Look at it!"
"I can't. I'm blind Natsume." Mikan said.
Natsume was shocked. He cannot believe a cheerful girl like her is blind.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know." Natsume said.
Mikan smiled, "Don't worry. I am not affected."
"So, will you be blind forever?"
"Yeah. If I have a surgery, I can see again but I think they still need to find a donor. Finding a same cornea is hard."
"Are you scared?"
"I am. I wanted to see again. I want to." Mikan said and she began to cry. Then she felt someone patting her back.
"I'll be here for you, until your bestfriend arrives in one week." Natsume said.
"Thank you."
Everyday, you will see Mikan and Natsume together. Eating, drinking, and talking with the other patients. You wouldn't even notice Mikan was blind. Every patient there was inspired by her, to continue living on despite of their sickness or despite of something bad that happened. She was cheerful and happy as always, she doesn't like the others to see her crying. She felt she was a hope for some of them who feel bad because of what happened to them. A week has almost passed by and the two kids, cherished the moment they had. Although it was heart-breaking, they needed to part.
"Do you really need to go Natsume?" Mikan asked. She was crying.
Natsume nodded, "I have to. I'm going somewhere. Somewhere away from the society."
"You need to promise we will meet sometime in the future. When we are 14, we must meet again!"
"Alright. We will. And I hope you can see once again when that time comes."
"Yeah. I hope so. Bye bye Natsume" she said. The raven-haired boy left her with some tears in his eyes.
5 years later,
Mikan accepted fate. It was too hard to find a donor for her eyes but she didn't give up. Although she cannot see, her sense of hearing definitely improved. For her, it was also like seeing but she was using her ears. She kept telling everyone, she was happy with what she have because sometimes, not being able to see things is lucky too. She was 13. And she kept praying that the days will go by faster, so once she turns 14, she'll be able to see Natsume again.
"Mikan, please try this on." Hotaru said.
"What is this?" Mikan asked as she felt the thing on Hotaru's hands.
"My latest invention. If you wear these earrings, you will somehow be able to see."
"Really? Please help me put it on." Mikan said.
Once it was put on,
"Press this." Hotaru said, she held Mikans index finger and helped her touch the part where she needs to press.
"Here we go." Mikan said.
She pressed the button and smiled at her bestfriend,
"You really are the greatest inventor of all."
"What's the result?" Hotaru asked.
Mikan's smile widened, "I can see now. Although it is temporary and only because of these earrings, I'm really glad."
"Invention062 The SEE. The earrings, once connected to the skin of the user, she will be able to see because the earrings acts like an eye. Once the earrings are activated, it transmits images to the brain and if you even add the person's capability and large sense of hearing, it was like seeing everything from a normal person's eye." (think its complicated? my head is getting dizzy because of this explanation. sigh.)
"Thank you Hotaru."
"It's not a problem. Now, all we need to do is pack our things and get ready."
"Where are we going?"
"To Alice Academy."
So how was it? Was it good? Plese tell me if you want me to continue writing this. I really just got the idea of making Mikan blind and Hotaru's invention enabling her to see. Well, I'm kinda bored so I thought of writing a new story. Review please! Thank you!!
