Gakuen Alice 67

Nobara: “Because I don't want Mikan-chan to hate me”

Persona: "This girl, she is helping you need now, Natsume"

Mikan: "Persona!!"

Misaki meets up with Tono and explains that Tsubasa was asked to follow Nobara to the Hanahimeden, and that because something seemed strange Tsubasa told Misaki to call up Tono. Tono isn't too happy to be dragged into some dangerous situation. Nobara falls down close to them, crying. Misaki, suprised, asks Nobara: "What are you doing here? Crying? Where's Tsubasa and Mikan?" Nobara keeps crying, sad that Mikan saw her in a trance, cold as ice and hurting them. Nobara: "When I first met Mikan, she gave me light.. I thought she would be the one who could lead me into the outer world, but I....." Nobara: "Please help Mikan-chan and the others, they are in grave danger. I can't help them (meaning she not strong enough)" Nobara decides that she doesn't have the right to be friends with Mikan, she terribly regrets her actions.

Mikan keeps asking questions to Persona on what happened to Nobara, what he did to her but Persona nastly answers to her: "Why, why, why. Do you actually think I'd answer if you asked a question?" Natsume explains that Nobara has a double personality that second personality is for work and usually does not appear but can be brought out by Persona. Persona: "Suitable to the name "Ice Princess", cold and cruel. She is my adorable doll." Mikan gets angrier and angrier towards Persona for speaking of Nobara in such a way. Natsume tries to attack Persona but it's too weak and Nobara's alice stone protects Persona; “Natsume, you've lost to the promise we made earlier" Persona says that Natsume lost because Natsume did not defeat alone Rui and the other kiken nouryoku, it's someone else (Tsubasa) fighting. But Persona had specifically told Natsume he was to beat them himself, alone. Someone runs and unlocks Aoi. Persona says to Natsume that the principal ordered that no mercy should be shown to traitors. Persona keep taunting Natsume, telling him he would never see his sister nor get out of there again. And would use his friends to show him what happens to those who stand against him. Mikan is angry, begins to scream at Persona that she won't let him do as he pleases but at that moment he uses his alice, Ruka jumps in front of Mikan to protect her and mice jump in front of Ruka, saving him from death. Persona: "I unforunately missed the biggest mouse" Hotaru shocked: “Just now, Persona's alice...." Natsume: "Persona you...!" Just at that moment Aoi walks close to them; "Who's there? Mikan chan? Could it be Kamen no kimi?" They are all surprised, even Persona. Natsume: “Aoi..." But Aoi doesn't recognize who he is. Aoi is a little afraid (remember she can't see); "Who are you? Kamen no kimi, where are you?" Mikan: "Aoi-chan, try to remember. Natsume is your important brother." Suddenly Hotaru and Ruka fell down; "Sakura! You're neck!" A bee ordered by Yakumo, the other kiken nouryoku, stings them, paralyzing them. Thanks to Ruka, Mikan was able to put her hand over her neck and the bee stung her on the hand. Persona tells Aoi that Natsume is the one who made her loose her sight and memory, but Natsume stands between Aoi and Persona: "Run Aoi, get out of here. I'll be right in back of you. This time I will keep that promise (A promise he made a long time ago) What ever happens, I wil protect you." Mikan can hear Natsume's voice across the fire that separates them from Persona. Natsume to Aoi: "I won't leave you alone again" Aoi: "Onii-can...onii-chan... A fire so familiar, familiar red eyes...." Aoi's memory has begun to come back. Mikan: "Both of you! Watch out!!" Mikan jumps in front of them, trying to use her alice but the barrier over the Hanahimeden weakens her, stopping her from completely nullifying.

Persona: "Aoi, come." Persona approaches them, trying to get his hands on Aoi. Natsume stays firm, ready to protect her. Mikan jumps up and pushes Persona. She doesn't want him to ruin Natsume and Aoi's happiness. Persona's mask falls off, he is extremely angry. Mikan's body begins to blacken all over. Persona: "you wouldn't die if you had simply touched the cloud, but touching me without my mask, you stupid Mukouka (nullification) (persona speaks in a way that seems to include Mikan and another nullification of before, you can understand who that mean) Persona is laughing tells Mikan its her fault and stupidity odd sticking her neck into others' busness which will have brought her death. Natsume: "death.....Mikan...."
