All Boris could do was stand their in shock. Ace kill Alice, the one that values life apposed to the one that didn't. Knowing Ace, even when covered in blood he could make it clear to everyone around him he never felt better. His knees begin to wobble as he collapses on the ground. Finding this a good opportunity Ace silently makes his way to go see Alice. Boris finding Alice's life on the line slowly gets up. Blood drizzles down his legs, but he pays no attention to that.
"Yes, luckily for me that stupid knight gets lost easily," he though to himself. He was basically dragging himself along the way.
"Boris!," yelled Alice as she sees him collapse right in front of her.
"A-ace he," he try's to speak but Alice shushes him.
"Your injured right now. We have plenty of time later to talk about Ace," she says as she helps him up. Boris on the other hand knew that time was running short for her. Ace may be one who gets lost all the time, but he always seems to show up at the right or worst possible time, depending on whose side you are viewing it from. She gets him into bed and addresses his wounds, wrapping bandages along his chest were he was hit. Soon without any warning Boris finds himself drifting asleep.
"Mmm," he mumbles as he slowly opens his eyes. "Alice, you .... Ace .... coming to .... he'll be .... soon," he says still mostly asleep and sore from his wound inflicted onto him by Ace.
"Did you say something, Boris?" she asks as she puts a wet rag on his forehead.
"Alice, listen carefully. Ace he ... he's coming here right now to kill you. He said so himself. Also he was the one that gave me this wound. You have to stay away from him," he chocks out, seemingly pleased that he was able to finally say it. Alice on the other hand was in such shock she drops the entire bucket full of water on the floor. She didn't seem to notice, only noticing the sharp pain in her chest. She didn't want to stay away from him though. Even if her life was in danger she couldn't help but get closer to him. No matter how much she hated him she just need to see him right at that very moment. Finding that she couldn't wait any longer she slowly rises to her feet.
Boris looks over, "A-Alice where are you going i told you to stay away from him." Tears begin to come to her face as she turns to face him.
"I'm sorry, Boris but I have to see him right now. Even if he's going to kill me I want to see him. I can't control myself anymore," she says as she slowly makes her way out of the room. After running for what seemed like an eternity she finds herself in a field. The grass there was almost knee high, flowers blooming, and a dense forest surrounding it. There in the middle of the field she saw Ace.
'Just who I was looking for. Though to find him in this kind of place comes as no surprise to me," she chuckles as a sign of relief creeps across her face. Ace spotting her standing there slowly makes his way to her.
"Alice, I'm going to kill you. You should not have come looking for me. To kill you, the you that everyone loves, the you that has changed everyone. I wonder what this will feel like," he says as a broad smile comes across his face. Tears begin to come streaming down her face as she collapse onto her knees.
"If I'm going to die right here right now I'm fine with that. I didn't understand this pain in my chest at first but now I do. If I'm going to die by your hand so be it. I don't care because, Ace I love you," she says as tears are now rolling down her eyes in a non-stop down pore. Ace stood there completely shocked as to what she just said. Something must have clicked in his mind making him fully realize what Alice had just said.
"Alice," he bends down positioning his lips right next to her ear. "I love you too." He steals a kiss from her. She looks up and kisses him back. Part of her enjoying it and the other half wanting to slap him for making her say such embarrassing things. He then tightly embraces her. He lets her of their embrace as he rises to his feet. Alice looks up wondering what he is doing.
Looking down at Alice he says, " Alice in this world, a word where everyone loves you, where hearts are made out of clocks, where real love is not real , how do you know that I mean what I say? Haven't I already told you that I loved you once? And weren't you the one that said that I didn't love you?" That same old smile comes to his face yet again. Alice found that there was probably no possible way to find out what he was thinking.
"If I sincerely love you and you love me I'll be able to tell. Sometimes actions speak louder than words. I don't think it matter weather you have a heart or a clock for a heart. Love is love and it can not be replaced with other feelings," she says as she slowly gets up. "I'll be the judge to see if you really do love me or not. I have faith in you so don't let me down, Ace. But right now Boris needs my help."
"Oh, he's still alive. I thought I had killed him after he collapsed. I guess I was wrong," shrugging as he says that. Alice now remembering what Boris had told her about Ace. A disbelief look spread throughout her face. Tears once again began to form around her eyes. She now knowing that Ace really was the one that hurt Boris, in both fear and in shock, starts to run off. Ace like the "knight" he is grabs her to try to console her. His former actions making it quite questionable to weather or not he really is one or not.
Bringing her close to him he says, "Alice, that cat will be fine but I doubt you will. He relived your care and now you'll get to receive mine." She looks up to see him smiling brightly and couldn't help but blush a little.
"W-what are you going to do to me then?" she asks in a questionable tone, her tears completely stopped now.
"Why make you better of course," he says as if it's simple knowledge.
"And how do you plan on doing that?" she snaps at him.
"Aw and we were getting along so well too," he says hugging her tighter.
"Ace! answer my question already!" she says trying to squirm out of his tight hold on her.
"If that's what you want I'll gladly do it. I'm going to take you on a little vacation," he says as Alice finally frees herself from his grip.
