Disclaimer: I do not own Heart no Kuni no Alice, QuinRose does.
Dota is a character I made up. This is my first fanfic so sorry if it's not so good, also I've never really been any good at spelling. Sorry for the first part being so long and thank you to the people that stay with me on this story. Ok I think that take care of obligations.
The country of hearts a land with many people. Yes many people with out faces and only few very lucky ones with faces. The lucky ones are know as role holders, they have faces that can show so many emotions. Don't get me wrong a none role holder can show emotions by smiling or frowning, but that nothing compared to what a role holder can do with their eyes. Their eyes can show so many feelings anger, love, hate, loneliness, desire, and so many more. Their eyes can never lie the mouth can, but never the eyes they show who you truly are. I love the eyes of a role holder they are one of the most amazing thing in this land, no they are the most amazing thing in this land. I think it even better than outsiders. How I wish I had a set of eyes. I want to someday look in someone eyes and have them look me back in mine say to them I love them and see their love for me in there eyes and all that they are. I would give all that I am for that. All though I don't think that is very much, I'm just a maid at the castle of hearts a faceless. But I am one of the best cooks in this place to bad for the most part no one really ever notices me not even the other faceless. What does that say about me if not even the other faceless notices me? It ok because some day someone will truly notice me and love me for all that I am. I am Dota a maid at the castle of hearts who likes to go to the amusement park in her off time, who wears a mask with feathers on it and small wings on my back in my back to be different than the other faceless. I love my mask it's almost like having a face. To bad I can't wear it on the job, but I always keep it by with me even if it is by my side.
"Black teas for 4 and tea cakes for 3."
"Oh no I spaced out again." I yell across the lone hall to the voice that brought me out of my daze. "What was that again?" I hear the voice again "Black teas for 4 and tea cakes for 3." I yell back "thank you." Ok Black teas for 4 and tea cakes. I get to work on making the cakes then after the cakes are done I put together the try with the 4 cake and tea. I look a round to see yup I am the only maid around right now which means I have to bring it outside, but I really don't want to. I yell down the hall to see if someone will respond to my call. The tray is ready. No response crap I really have to do it. Oh well it can't be help the queen is waiting.
I get out side with the tray to see the queen and Alice at a table talking, Peter staring at Alice, and Ace laying on the grass so peacefully. How I envy them all. I hand the first tea and cake to the queen. Next set to Alice she thanks me I smile and say "You are very welcome Alice." After hearing those words Peter give me a very mean look, so I go to give Ace the next set to give Peter a sec or 2 to cool off so he doesn't try to shot me. I think I saw Ace's eyes light up a bit when I handed him the cake. It was an amazing feeling I got seeing his eyes light up even a bit. Last I go to hand the last set to Peter first the tea then as I try to hand him the cake he gives me a very angry look. Then loudly he says "I did not want cake." I curse my bad memory. Then I see him going for his watch so I go to put my hand on my mask. I won't die over a simple mistake I want to live to make my dreams come true. I don't care if I can be replaced or even brought back to life as a new person. It wont be the same I wont be me the next person wont have the same hope and dreams as me, I want to be me I will protect myself even if it from a role holder. That all I could think, I wanted to existed. I see Peter's gun so I go to change my mask. The next thing I see I could not believe Ace in front of me blocking the shot from Peter's gun, so I quickly change my mask back be for anyone notices I changed it in the first place. I hear Ace say "don't kill her she brought the good cake." Peter get gets more annoyed goes to shoot again but then hears Alice call him then he runs to her side. After this Ace grabs the cake and pats me on the head as he does this I get a warm feeling in my chest. "Ace sir thank you for saving me." I then hear Ace laugh and eat the piece of cake. Under my breath "I say enjoy the cake Ace", then I go bake to the kitchen.
Ace's pov.
I was brought back from my thoughts when a maid was handing me a cup of tea. I take the cup from her and next she hands me a piece of cake. I glanced at her first and see it the maid that always has a mask at her side. I know it means the cake will taste good when ever it this maid it always taste good. I take the cake with a bit of excitement of how it will taste. As I eat the cake I a thought hits me I think that maid has been here for a few years. I'm amazed that this maid had not died yet I wonder how this maid has avoid death when most of them would have been killed in half this time by now. I hope she don't die I like this cake. As I finish my cake I see the maid try to hand Peter a piece of cake then pull a gun on the maid. I rush over to block the shot. "Peter don't kill the maid she brought the good cake", then as Peter about to shot again Alice calls him and he rushed over. I take the cake from her and pats me on the head , then she thanks me for saving her. I find it odd that she thanks me she can be replaced so it no big deal if he lives or dies, she is an odd one this maid. I laugh at her strange action then I go to eat the piece of cake. As I'm eating the piece of cake I hear her say enjoy the cake Ace, what an odd maid indeed.
I can stop thinking about what Ace did for me then I remember what he said about the cake and that gives me an idea. I start to think to my self to bake him a cake to thank him. The next thing I know I'm doing it, I really do need to keep my mind more focused and not just run around on impulse. I find myself making a black forest cake I put some liquor in the jam and frosting because the liquor in the cake will bake off. When I'm done with the cake I put it in a box with a ribbon tied around it. I walk through the castle halls singing with the box I go to his room or at least what I think is his room. I knock on the door and out comes Peter. Mental note to self work on memory. "What are you doing here? "Crap! Think fast. "I was looking for Ace I have some thing I am to give him." "So why are you looking in my room." CRAP! THINK. "Because he has a bad scenes of direction he is more likely to be here than his room." I watch Peter think foe a sec or 2. "That makes a lot of sense" then he nods. "Hay Peter what are you doing in my room?" "This is my room your room is over there." "Maid see that Ace finds HIS room." "Yes Mr. White."
Ace's pov.
I walk down the hall to my room and on the way I smell some thing good coming from that direction , that I see a maid and Peter in the door way of my room. I walk up. "Hay Peter what are you doing in my room?" To be told that his room that is not my room my room is over there. Peter tells the maid to help me find my room. As we are walking I notice the smell is coming from the box, then I see the mask at the maid's side. It's the odd maid why does she have a box with a ribbon on it? When we reach my room she gives me the box and tell me it her thank you to me for saving her. I find myself wondering for a sec if she really a citizen of the country of hearts or an outsider. I know she has to be from the country of hearts because she is faceless right? I come to from my thoughts and take the box. "Come in." What an odd maid indeed.
