Gakuen Alice 51

The story starts off 2 days after the Christmas party. Mikan is remembering the events that happened between her, Ruka, and Natsume. Mikan: "the christmas party was a storm. A storm of memories, that night snow pilled up and all turned white. Passed so quickly, and before you no it it's the Big clean up day." Mikan and classmates are cleaning the classroom. A boy who is cleaning up the ceiling while floating scolds Mikan who is daydreaming. Mikan is quickly taken out of her daydreaming dizzily looking around surprised. Mikan: "eh? whoa?..I...christmas is over?" Kokoroyomi-kun playfully says: "you're really silly and stupid".

A girl is walking in the snow storm. Like a narration we see what Mikan writes to her grandfather: ‘’Dear Grandpa. Alice Gakuen's Big clean up is just as I thought. Crazy." Narumi-sensei scolds Anna-chan for having hidden food in her locker and the food's moss turned into a ghost. Narumi: "kora! Kora! kora! Anna-chan. (after saying so much last time) I told you not to hide foods you dislike in your locker just because you were scared of being scolded. Because of your alice the moss turned into a moss ghost. You can't own it in your locker. Go throw it out." Anna-chan: "B..but, Moss-chan (naming the ghost)" Anna is crying.(She seems to have become friends with that ghost and doesn't want to throw it out) In the meantime in chemistry class Misaki-sensei is scolding Nonoko-chan for very similar reasons. She made a mistake in her formula and turned it into a ghost. Narration: with these events, led by the atmosphere, during cleaning a competition in the school staircase started. (Lunch break) Mikan, Iincho, Hotaru, Kokoro-yomi, Kitsuneme & crying Nonoko and Anna sitting in a circle. All trying to make Nonoko & Anna feel better. Mikan: "Cheer up, Nonoko-chan, Anna-chan." Hotaru then suggests to make a scary story contest. The scariest story teller gets a money prize while the worst has to pay a fine. Hotaru's eyes are shining to her own idea for making money. Kokoroyomi calls out to Natsume to create for them a camp fire. Mikan, Natsume and Ruka's eyes meet. Mikan quckly hides behind Hotaru. Hotaru: "Mikan? What's wrong?".

Mikan remembers the kiss and the promise she made with Luka, and the kiss by Natsume. She is confused, wondering why they did such a thing. Mikan begins to cry while holding on tight to Hotaru. Hotaru: "I won't forgive you if you put snots on my uniform" Mikan is confused: "The more and more I think the less I understand what they (Natsume+Luka) are thinking. My heart is mixed up like today's snowstorm." Kokoroyomi & Kitsuneme are talking about the fact that it's too obvious Yo-chan would be best to tell scary stories (Yo-chan's Alice is to control evil spirits) Mikan was too deep in her thoughts that she never noticed Yo-chan sitting on her lap and is suprised. Yo-chan came over to show her a teddy bear someone made for him. (Yo-chan cannot speak and only says Ah. Ah.) Mikan: "You startled me...A BEAR teddy bear? who made it for you? You came all this way just to show me? Oh, Yo-chan you're so cute. Though since you only say Ah Ah I can't understand what you're saying, so scary stories aren't scary..." Kokoroyomi: "That may not be so" Yo-chan a bit angry walks away to Ruka. And the scary story competition starts. Kokoroyomi-kun begins by telling the story of his childhood when before entering this school he had given street directions to an old lady and at the same time had read her mind too. By doing this he saw a memory of the woman killing someone and found out she was a serial killer. (He is telling this story with his usual easygoing smile and finishes his story by saying he ran away and told the police but the woman was never caught) Everyone is scared. Next Hotaru tells her story about a secret room in the Gijutsukei-class where broken robots are stored and at night you can here those robots crying: "where is my arm..." Only Mikan gets scared. Next Ruka is forced to tell a story. He talks of the time when he walked in on Narumi-sensei who was practicing dressing up like a woman. Next, Parma's turn: "In the dark hallway of the elementary scool building the ghost of a girl student covered in blood, holding a weapon in hand with long hair drooping pursues students" Iincho & Mikan are scared out of their wits. They all agree that Parma's story is the scariest at the moment. Natsume holding Yo-chan on his lap asks: "is there a ghost?" Yo-chan nods. Natsume to Mikan: "He says it's behind you.....not right behind you, behind the window behind you....annoyin.." Mikan is terrified and starts Panicking, she by accident tears a paper which Yo-chan had made and stuck on the wall. Since Yo-chan can't speak so can't say what it is, and because of his Alice, others all believe that that was some kind of special seal which Yo-chan had created and put their to secure the school from "something" they tease Mikan that maybe something bad will happen to her because she tore it. Teacher walks in on them and scolds them to get back in class. Mikan's bad luck truly begins: teacher seperates them into groups of 3 for cleaning and Mikan is grouped to clean the hallway with Ruka and Natsume. The atmosphere between them is heavy and no one is speaking. The 3 are silently cleaning the hallway....a girl, all wet with long hair and a bloody bruised foot walking towards the hallway "Sa...kura...Mi..ka...Mi..Ka..... The scene gets back to the silent trio. Mikan is startled by Natsume. Natsume: "a ghost at your feet....there is not" Mikan: "Natsume...?" Natsume: "Well, you can talk, can't you? Don't also ignore Ruka, stupid"(meaning she's probably not talking to him because of what happened last time) Mikan: "Who's fault do you think it is!!" Ruka: "Natsume...both of you..." *lights go out* it is explained that a blackout was caused by the snowstorm. Mysterious girl: "Where am I...where is Sakura...Sakura Mi..Kan" the trio stopped cleaning and is sitting in the hallways waiting. Mikan can hear in her head Parma and Kokoroyomi-kun's voices about a ghost walking the school hallway. She is scared. Ruka: "Sakura, you alright?" She nods but is obviously not alright. Mikan thinks to herself that ghosts are scary but this situation being stuck the three together is even scarier. Both Natsume and Ruka have not spoken, not even looked at each other since the 3 were grouped to clean the hallway. Natsume and Ruka remember how easily Mikan can be scared and (Mikan sitting between them) by coincidence stretch out their hand to hold hers at the same time.

Mikan surprised looks at Ruka who looks at her blushing a little, then looks at Natsume who is looking away. Mikan blushes, to herself: "eh?! What should I do" She closes her eyes deeply blushing. Both Natsume and Ruka realize what's wrong and start laughing. Mikan is even more surprised by this. Ruka: "haha, both of us troubling Sakura. We look like idiots. Stupid natsume" (both still giggling) Natsume: ‘’Ha-?! Stupid yourself!" Ruka: "Pervert" Natsume: "Shut up" Ruka: "Sore looser! Teaser! Childish!" Natsume: "what is this?! say all you want time?!?!" Ruka: "Then answer back at me, stupid" Natsume: "You have terrible taste in woman" Ruka: ‘’Then you too Natsume..." Ruka laughing more and more. Mikan is simply dazzled by what's going on. Feeling as if Natsume and Luka are not holding on to her hand but holding on to each others. Ruka: "I won't loose"(something often said to a love rival in Japanese) Natsume: "What's that about. I have no intention of winning,... from the start" Mikan cheered up by the events smiles silly. Natsume: ’’What the hell is she smiling at... grosse, go away." Mikan: "What the hell is going on with you two? Making me worry...” Mikan to her: "They're back to normal. so happy" the sound of a popping light startles them and from far away in the dark hallway the sound of wet footsteps. The figure of a girl wet, with long drooping hair, scissors in one hand, wearing only 1 boot and a bloody bare foot stretching her hand towards them: "Mi..ka..n..cha....." Mikan screams, the mysterious girl is startled. Mikan and Ruka run away (Mikan thinks it's the ghost from Parma's story coming for vengeance for the ripped sceal) Natsume kicks the girl to the floor. It's Nobara, the girl who has the Ice Alice. She's all wet from walking in the snowstorm and had lost a boot. Natsume also suprised to see who it is asks: “What the hell are you doing here?" She reaches out the scissors; "ah...this was dropped" narrator: "Why has Nobara come to the elementary grade building.?’’
