SA 61 - Plan

" Coming here in the middle of the night looking so dirty and haggard, what do you want?" Subaru asked while he and Sakurano looked at Tsubasa and the others curiously. They didn't expect someone in a time like this.

" Please help us!" Ruka exclaimed while sweating. They had to rush since Mikan and Misaki is in a crucial state. Sakurano was sitting down on a chair while Subaru stood beside him.

Hotaru took the chance to catch Subaru's attention. " There's no time. i heard that you were the only person who managed to survive Persona's alice." she started off. Sakurano and Subaru's eyes widened in shock.

" So please help Mikan and Misaki. I will not bother you after this, just help us this time." she pleaded. Subaru softened and sighed heavily. Sakurano told Tsubasa and Tono to lay the two girls down the bed.

" Tonouchi amplify my alice-..." Subaru said and knelt on the floor beside Mikan. " Yeah, sure." Tono said and knelt beside him. The two inspected Mikan's markings, it was darker than before and it surely did spread.

" This looks bad." Tono hissed. Subaru suddenly spoke as he felt the tense atmosphere around the room. " Look, this doesn't mean that I know the way to recover from Persona's alice so please don't get your hopes up. I will be treating them urgently until you could bring them to the hospital." he said and started to heal Mikan.

Sakurano's eyes fell on Misaki who was in the worst condition. " It seems that we're missing out the valuable details on how it led to this." Sakurano stated, wanting an explanation. They gladly told everything to them which shocked them at first.

Tono sweat dropped, unable to accept the fact that Tsubasa, along with Mikan and the others created so much trouble. " Basically, you all sneaked out of the hanahime-den's surface and battled at the basement, got Aoi-chan out and these two girls into a critical condition." he tried to understand. Tono suddenly grabbed Tsubasa's nape forcefully before scolding him.

" You brats!" he gritted his teeth, now pale because he'll be scolded for their troubles as the representative of the Special Ability Class. " Giving me a headache because of the troubles you've caused! Geez, couldn't you all just stay put?!" he gave them a big scolding however Sakurano was displeased too.

" Once again, created another huge trouble." Sakurano sighed and looked at them seriously. " Persona is like the elementary principal's trump card- a secret weapon. Those who are involved wouldn't get away that easily, who knows what'll happen once he sets eyes on them." Tono stopped scolding but he was still grabbing Tsubasa by his collar. Their attention was set on Sakurano who already stood up from his chair.

" Get out now." he blurted and glanced at Misaki. " That's what I would like to say." he added and breathed heavily. Natsume noticed that he kept glancing on Misaki so he decided to step forward while Aoi stood beside him.

" It's my fault, I dragged them into this mess. I will take Aoi and get out of this school by all means, so that everyone wouldn't be in trouble."  Natsume said, not wanting Ruka and the others to be punished because of what happened.

" Onii-chan..." Aoi muttered. Ruka's eyes widened in disbelief. " Natsume-!" he gasped.

Natsume sighed deeply, bowing down his head a little. " The method I've used to get Aoi out, it would be better if I get out of here too." he stated. Tsubasa, Hotaru, Ruka, Tono, Youichi and Sakurano looked at him warily.

" What are you saying... Natsume?" Tsubasa's brows furrowed together, obviously confused. He's one of those who doesn't want Natsume to leave in such way.

Misaki opened her eyes and groggily sat up from the bed with her remaining strength. Her body felt hot as if she was having a fever, but she gave Natsume a look since she heard them talking about getting out of the Academy.

" Ah, Natsume... you're leaving us?" she asked out of the blue. Now their attentions were on the marked girl beside Mikan. " Are you really leaving us?" she blinked for a couple of times.

" Misaki-." Natsume's eyes lighted up as soon as he saw that Misaki was sitting down on the bed.  Subaru left Mikan's side and sat by the bed near Misaki, since she wasn't even treated yet.

" Ruka-pyon... are you okay with that?" Misaki managed to croak. Ruka's eyes watered but he held back his tears. " Misaki... Sakura-. Natsume..." he mumbled sadly.

" There's no need to be sad, Ruka-pyon." Mikan suddenly spoke, she regained consciousness after being healed.  Hotaru nodded her head and patted Ruka's back lightly to comfort him in place of Mikan.

" If it was the healthy you, maybe it is possible but but it is quite to get out of here." Subaru shot Natsume a quick glance before treating the weak Misaki. Subaru held the girl's head softly while healing her. "  In a beat up state with a blind sister, it's obvious that you'll have a hard time." he commented. They knew that Subaru was correct but they kept silent.

" If you managed to escape, you'll be quickly taken back here. You know that the elementary principal wouldn't be easy on you or your friends." Sakurano reminded Natsume. Helping him understand the important point, he can't escape that easily. He didn't want them to come up with plans that only have a little chance of success rate.

Ruka stepped forward near Mikan and faced Natsume and the others. " But Aoi-chan isn't an alice anymore... why does she still get hurt by the school? This isn't right." Ruka defended, frustrated with the situation.

Mikan blinked in confusion as she supported herself up and grabbed a piece Ruka's clothes. " Ruka..." she managed to call out, wanting Ruka to calm down since getting angry wouldn't do any good.

" At least give Aoi-chan back to her family, that's why-." Ruka got cut off by Tono who heard something that caught his attention. Aoi gasped as he recalled her memories with Ruka. " Ruu-chan."

" Ruka... did I hear that right? Aoi-chan has no alice?" Tono asked to confirm what he just heard.  Ruka hesitantly agreed with him. " Yeah." he said. Tono tapped his chin, he was thinking of something that'll help the kids.

" What do you have in mind, Tono?" Tsubasa asked. " It's worth a try. I've got an idea, those who are uninjured, lend me a hand." Tono started off. Subaru stopped treating Misaki and went beside Sakurano. " What?" he asked.

" Sakurano, Imai, while executing my plan, I am asking you to take care of the kids?" Tono gave them a nod, they didn't have any choice but to agree. " If we can settle this, we won't cause any further trouble." Tono reassured them. He was determined to lend a hand to Natsume and the others.

" No time to spare, they might find us immediately." Subaru heaved a deep sigh as he glance at Tono who was plotting something. " To cover these kids' mess, we'll create a bigger incident." Tono announced taking the risk of getting punished.

Everyone was all set, but before they move Tono cheered them up to lighten up their foul mood. "  This is the only way, lets do our best... I'm counting on you." he said and headed out to execute the plan.

Misaki clenched her fists together, they have a mini screen to check whether the plan was going on smoothly. Mikan glanced at Misaki and patted the girl's hand. " Lets be selfish and worry about ourselves just this time." she weakly said.

" Ah, you're burning Misa-chan... Me too." Mikan breathed and laid on the bed pulling her hand away from Misaki.
