So we are now onto Gilbert the unicorn! :O I was slow on writing this because I wasn't sure how to go about it but then a friend of mine pointed out the obvious x.x thank you Vince ^w^
It was so peaceful. He was utterly exhausted and he didn't care if the ground was crawling with insects or was getting his black coat dirty. The sun was beating down on him as he laid there sprawled out with raven locks flowing in between tall blades of soft grass. Birds were chipring in the sky andd the breeze was causing a relaxing rustle of leaves in the trees that towered over him. Everything was so perfect and he could stay there for the rest of the day with no worries.
"Gil! Oh Gil wake up!~" he heard a sweet voice call out to him.
No, no, no, no, no.
"Yeah, you silly seaweed, head get up!" another voice called, one less pleasant than the previous, especially to his ears.
Oh definately no!
He felt small hands latch onto his arms and soon enough he was being shaken violently. Gilbert groaned, squeezing his eyes shut as his lips turned down in a scowl. The person shaking him never let up and finally he really had no choice but to give in and open his eyes. Why did this have to be happening now?
"Hmm..." Golden irises looked around and much like he was expecting, he was greeted by two smiling faces. One was of his young master, who he couldn't help but smile back to with a warmth that would seem unnatural to onlookers. As he turned his gaze to the other though his scowl returned. It was that stupid rabbit and the smirk she wore now made him want bop her on the head all the more for waking him up. "Oh...It's you" he said with subtle venom "This had better be important. Is something happening in Pandora?"
"No, Gil, nothing like that. We found a map" His attention was drawn back to the blonde speaking and as fast as it had appeared his scowl was gone. He arched a brow, wondering what could be so important that these two would come rushing over to him and wake him up
"A map to Meaty Mountain!" Alice announced, throwing her arms up as she imagined a meat of wonderfully cooked meat. Gilbert could have sworn in disgust that he saw her drool.
"Meaty Mountain...of course...well thats great" Gilbert muttered, ignoring the pleads from Alice about going along on the adventure. The raven was just second from going back to sleep when he felt a small hand on his cheek.
"You'll go with us, won't you, Gil?" Now he was looking up into Oz's green eyes. They were kind and the smile he wore was even more than what he could handle. It took Gilbert all of a few seconds to get up to his feet, adjust his hat, and set out walking. Unknowingly he was leaving behind a smirking Oz who was quite poud of himself.
"...la la lala la la lalala La LA LA..."
"Enough singing" Gilbert sighed out after a good hour of listening to the two as they wandered around. He was starting to wonder why exactly he had come along. It was clear from the begining they were just going to be walking in circlees pointlessly until Alice was satisfied. He was ready to quietly make an escape when suddenly the singing ceased. Sure they hadn't actually listened to him.
"There it is!" Alice squealled, pointing ahead to what Gilbert could only tell was a rock in the middle of a clearing.
"He will guide us the way!" now it was Oz's turn to be excited over the sight of the rock, leaving gilbert to wonder how sane even his master was.
"Er...what exactly is it?" Gilbert couldn't help but to ask, wondering if there was soething he just wasn't seeing.
"It's...It's..It's!" just as Oz was building up suspense something from the rock caught Gilbert's eye. Someone had popped their head out form behind it, strange cat ears upon his head. The male licked his paws, showing off large silver claws.
'Cat...' Gilbert couldn't help but jump back, a shiver running down his spine as the man's red eye just stared at him, nobody making a noise.
"Uh...you guys do know Meaty Mountain isn't real right?" Gilbert finally got over his fears, looking between the two children before him. Really he just wanted to get the two of them and get away from the creepy man who he swore hadn't even blinked. Instead he got the opposite kind of reaction.
"He's a nonbeliever" Alice's voice was cold as she stiffened, not even turning her head to look at Gilbert.
"Shun..." Oz's voice was barely more than a whisper but it made Gilbert's mind freeze.
"Shun the nonbeliever" Alice muttered.
"Shunnnnnnn!"
"Shunnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!"
"Wait no!" Gilbert tried to plead, a shunning being the last thing he wished for from Oz.
"Shun Him!"
"Shunnnnnn"
"NYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" all at once the three of them looked to the other male in their prescence that had interupted them. Gilbert just blinked while Oz and Alice jumped for joy. With that the strange cat man descended back down to his hding place behind the rock.
"It has told us the way!" Oz shouted with excitement.
"What? It didn't say anything?" Gilbert arched a thin black brow as he slouched forward, not even sure what his master was talking about.
He didn't receive an answer though because before he could even finish his questions Oz and Alice were dashing away into the thick woods.
It wasn't until they reached a cliff side that they stopped running, much to Gilbert's relief. He doubled over, supporting himself on his knees as he panted, watching an unphased Oz and Alice. How could they have so much energy?
"Its just over this bridge, Gilbert!" Oz said happily, as if it was something Gilbert would actually get excited over, which it wasn't.
Alice stepped onto the bridge that was nothing more than some fraying rope and decaying wooden boards, arms spread out on either side as she hummed joyfully. "The magical bridge of hope and wonder~" she said in a sing song voice. Oz was soon behind her, his steps slightly slipping. And last was a reluctant Raven, who only dared risk his life on this sorry excuse for a bridge to make sure Oz got across alright.
"Neh, Seaweed head" Alice said in a quiet voice and to her dismay Gilbert just ignored her.
"Seaweed headdddd" she said a bit louder with a bit of a pout on her face as she lead the way across the bridge that swung loosely beneath all three of them.
"Seaweed head!" Alice called, looking back over her shoulder with her glare narrowed on a pale looking Gilbert. he clung onto the ropes of the bridge for dear life, his eyes locked on the ground that must have been a good five-hundred feet below them. He was concentrating intently on just getting across this bridge in one piece and never having to come back to it and the dumb rabbit wasn't helping at all.
"SEAWEED HEAD!" Alice tried one last time, stomping her foot down which nearly made the board break beneathe her boot.
"What?" Gilbert finally snapped, glaring up at her.
"We're on a bridge, Seaweed head~" she said sweetly, loving the way Gilbert nearly flopped over at his limit.
Gilbert was sure this 'adventure' was going to be the end of him. He could see the sun begining to set behind the trees as he somehow kept walking, staring at the back of the heads of the two happy people that were leading him to his end.
"We're here!"
"Finally" the raven sighed out happily. The had finally reach that god forsaken Meaty Mountain."...Wait what?" Gilbert lifted his head and his golden eyes just stared in wonder. Before him was a small mountain, appearing to be made entirely of cooked meat. His mouth dropped at the sight and everything he beilieved in before was shattered. "It is real"
"Well of course it is silly Seaweed Head" Alice mocked with a giggle.
"Gilbert! Go inside the cave!" Oz cheered him on as he grabbed the sleeve of his friends black coat and dragged him along to a large opening in the pile of meat.
"Ah...No thanks" gilbert tried to back away but was met with pouting eyes.
"Come on Gil" he said in a pleading voice. "You have to"
"Yeah Seaweed Head. C'mon"
"Gillllllll, please"
"Just do it"
"For me?"
"He's too chicken"
"Alice thats not true. gil will do it won't he?"
Again big, green eyes were looking up at him, ones Gilbert just couldn't deny. "Fine I'll go into the stupid cave" he muttered, giving into Oz as well as showing that dumb rabbit. Taking one last relaxing breath, Gilbert stormed into the cave, not looking back.
"Bye bye Gil~" he heard Oz's voice echo through the cave.
"Huh?" he turned halfway, only catching a glimpse of a mischievious smile before a door slammed over the entrance of the cave, leaving Gilbert alone in the dark. "What the-" out of nowhere he was struck over his head and before he knew it he was falling to the ground, lost into a deep sleep.
Slowly Gilbert began to come to. He felt soft grass under him and the sun beating down on his back, much hotter due to the black color of his coat. The raven sat up slowly, rubbing his head that still ached terribly. "What happened?"
Looking around he could tell he was back in the meadow he'd been reasting in before and he wondered if everything that happened had just been some horrible nightmare. The ache in his head told him otherwise as he tied to get up to fast.
"Something's not right" he croaked, able to tell something was off. What had those two done to him. He examined himself and there didn't seem to be any wounds minus the knot on his head. His head. Reaching up his hands only met thick waves of black hair. That wasn't right.
"They took my hat!"
Well the end~ for this one o.O yeah
How dare they take poor Gil's hat. You dun take Gil's hat o.o
anyway! i'll try and have the second one up soon. In the mean time go read Nightrays with hats if you haven't and enjoy the Vince violence Xwx
