I don't anything from this game/series.

"Don't worry Alice, I do this all the time, I won't hurt you I promise." Ace purred, as the dagger in his hand flashed in the sunlight, then reflecting the fear in Alice's eyes.

"See Alice, you enjoy this don't you. Your heart is beating so fast, almost like it's trying to run away from me. But you won't run will you, you know I won't hurt you." Ace whispered close to her ear, an insane look in his eyes, as he trailed the knife over her pale almost white lips.

How many times had he stared gazed at her milky skin and wish to dye it crimson red. Cover her in a coat of red, and maybe she would understand his insanity. As she went about innocently unaware of the horror of this world, this game. How he wished to stain that innocence, acquaint her with fear, desperation and insanity. And finally he got that chance.

"Ace. Please stop. This isn't you." Alice whispered, her voice trembling as she felt the cold tip of the dagger trail across her cheek.

"This isn't me? You don't know me Alice. In fact you don't know anyone. You're just a foreigner wandering around obliviously. You won't understand the imprisonment of being a role holder. You don't understand anything. But I can give you a taste of it, fear, desperation and pain." Ace said, as his mouth cracked into a maniacal smile.

"No Ace stop! I don't wa…"

"Shush. Don't worry Alice I won't hurt you. The precious foreigner, how can I hurt you? You want this don't you; your heart is beating even faster. Don't deny it Alice." He said, as he backed her up against the wall, his body blocking any form of escape.

That being said, he slammed his lips forcefully against hers, as she tried in vain to push him off. Grabbing her hands together, he held above her head as he invaded her mouth. The hand, which held the dagger, reached up and slid down her arm, just scratching enough to draw blood, again and again he did it, as she struggled against him. The blood trailing down her arms stained the pure white of her apron.

Finally he let go and grinned at his work. Her beautiful hair tangled and matted with blood. Her lips red and swollen from his rough assault. Her arm marked with the letter A. The fear in her blue eyes. And as he leaned forward to hear her heartbeat, she shrunk into the corner, desperate to get away from him.

"A for Alice. A for Ace. Isn't it nice? You are mine. But for now that's all I will teach you. Class is dismissed my dear Alice. Now run away desperately, and don't look back." He said devilishly, releasing her and watched with amusement as she ran away blood still dripping and not realizing that she dropped her shoe.

"My lovely Alice, if you wanted to play Cinderella you could have just said so earlier. Well I guess I'll have to be a prince and find you. I can teach you even more things, when we meet again. Until then, have fun with fear and desperation. They make the best friends in the darkest hours as you lie down, wondering when you will die." Ace said to her fast disappearing back, as some unknown memories brought pain to the surface of the turmoil of emotions in his eyes. Smiling, he walked back into the forest. "Now which way is the Castle of Hearts, Vivaldi will kill me if I'm late for the meeting again."

I hope this isn't too horrible. I tried. Any comments, like it, hate it, anything! Thanks for reading :)
