A/N: So this anime that I've been waiting to come out in ages has come out and by watching it and reading the manga again, it has given me this brilliant idea.

Bare in mind that the plot is not the same though, only one thing is actually in common.

Disclaimer: I do not own Diamond/Joker/Clover/Heart no Kuni no Alice series.

Note: This is an AU!

Enjoy!


Prologue-On The Train

Alice liked to believe she was way more mature then any other kid her age. I mean, how many kids got to travel by train all by themselves?

Although she did feel some guilt in not telling her older sister where she was going, she knew that she had to do this though, because if she told Lorina where she was going then she would have been stopped.

And she did not want that.

She hummed lightly to herself as she dug through her back-pack, the only thing on her, and pulled out a candy bar. While unwrapping the candy bar, she took note of the fact that not many people were in the compartment with her.

Well she didn't mind, less curious stares then.

She chewed on the sweet while sticking her hand back into her bag, looking for something to occupy herself with. Her hand rested on the hard-covered book she had grabbed before leaving-the last book her mother had read to her.

She grabbed it and pulled it out, glancing at the title.

Alice in Wonderland.

She licked her lips, finishing off the rest of her food, before placing he sticky fingers on the book and flipping through the pages idly. She stopped on one particular page, which had a piece of paper folded on it.

She picked up the paper, pushing the book aside, before flipping it up and began reading it.

Dear Alice,

I'm not sure if your sister told you this but I'm afraid that I won't be able to stay with you any longer. However this letter is not here to describe my illness and such.

It's to tell you something that I never wanted to do, but I realize because time is limited that I must tell you.

You see, although Henry has been a very good father since you were a baby, he is…in fact not your real father.

I know it's hard to take in, but…mommy had a very bad night 10 years ago…but I was rewarded with you. But don't worry, Henry considers you every bit his! And Lorina and Edith, your sisters, don't know this but in either case they are still your siblings.

However I realize that you might one day, when your older, be very curious as to whom your real father is.

All I can say…is that he is one of the 'Role Holders' of the Wonderland district. I'm sorry I have given you such limited information, but alas even I can't remember the man myself.

Alice…I'm sorry I could not have told you in person but know that I only planned to hide it because I love you.

Lots of love,

Your mother.

Alice folded the note up, placing it back in the book, before placing the book back in the bag. She sighed, glancing out the window in boredom.

She wasn't upset about the news, she kind of understood why her mother hid it but naturally Alice was a curious person.

So her plan was simple.

She was going to go to the Wonderland district, find her father and see what he's like. Just a quick peek and then she'd head home before Lorina noticed she was gone. Henry wouldn't notice she was gone, he was to focused on his work and Edith barely had any interest in her since the funeral.

Seen as there was nothing else to do, she decided to try and imagine what her father could look like.

'Perhaps he'll be tall and strong, marching into an area with vigour! Or maybe he'll be a workaholic like dad…'

"Excuse me young lady, but where is your parents?"

At the sound of another voice, Alice glanced up and smiled. "Mommy is dead and I'm off to the Wonderland district to meet my father."

The voice came from a young attendant, who looked at her in shock. The attendant, a male, sat down slowly across from her, biting his lip. "You said the Wonderland district. Perhaps you were mistaken, did you mean Winchester?"

Alice shook her head, "No, I said Wonderland district! I remember the name clearly."

The attendant bit her, "But you look so young! How old are you, nine?"

"I'm ten!"

"Ten, why that is still too young! Kids like you should never go to that district, especially not alone!"

Alice pouted, giving the man a suspicious stare, "and why is that?"

The attendant looked around cautiously, as if he was making sure nobody was listening, before glancing back to her.

"The Wonderland district is where the top criminals of the world live! Anybody who goes there is bound to run into trouble, or worse-get killed! Not a single person leaves that place unscathed. I see a lot of people board this train heading there, but only one, if lucky, ever gets back on to leave."

"Criminals…live there? That can't be right."

"It's true, not a single person who lives there is innocent. They've bound to have done something against the law."

'So…that means my real dad…is a criminal?'

The attendant saw the blank look on her face and panicked, "err you said you were going to meet your father there. Perhaps there is a nice area there, I haven't actually entered the place myself."

However he was shocked to see a big smile curl onto her face.

"Cool! Father could be a criminal! That means he could know cool tricks!"

He wondered what was up with kids in this day and age.

He stood up put paused when she grabbed his top, tugging on it, "yes?"

"So if you know about this district, do you know a man know by the nickname 'Role Holder'?"

Alice was amazed to see the man's face change colours in a matter of seconds. Blues, greens, reds…she saw it all!

"Role Holder….."

THUD!

Alice pouted, prodding the unconscious attendant with her foot. "Geez, you could have answered the question before fainting. Adults these days…"

"ATTENTION PASSANGERS. WE HAVE ARRIVED AT THE WONDERLAND DISTRICT. WE HOPE YOU HAVE A SAFE TIME THERE AND DON'T COME BACK BLOODY. THANK YOU."

"Well, this is my stop. Don't worry daddy! I'll find you soon enough."

With that thought in her head, Alice stood up and exited the train, not noticing the confused stares she received from suspicious looking people.

"Is…that a kid?"

"Don't question it Bob. Just don't question it."
