Night Class in Wonderland

Chapter 1: Insanity

There wasn't much in their long lives to go for now. The villain was vanquished, Yuki and Kaname had their little romance, but what about our brave knights who fought so valiantly throughout this chaos? They, who risked their lives to protect their Kaname-sama and vampire society as we know it? Surely, this wasn't going to be the only excitement and action in their lives, was it? Oh no, dear knights, the madness has yet to truly begin.

Cross Academy didn't die, as everyone expected it would. Kaien Cross managed to revive his beloved educational facility and everyone's lives went on as if Rido never interfered. The night class was finally reestablished and peace floated throughout the mid-afternoon sky. Yuuki, too, convinced Kaname into coming back to where everything started. Zero had disappeared with the night sky, and he hasn't been seen nor heard of for over a year.

Of course, everyone was elated that the sinister demon was gone, but it felt just a bit boring. It was a clear night as they all sat in the parlor, silent as mice.

"Things have been rather quiet lately." Ichijo remarked, breaking the somewhat awkward silence.

"Indeed." Aido agreed, twiddling his thumbs. "Though I'm glad everything is back to normal, whatever that is." Senri and Rima nodded, munching on their pocky. Ruka, strangely, had her nose buried in an odd human tale.

"Ruka, you've been absorbed in that book for quite some time, what is it about?" Ichijo asked her curiously, wondering how someone could possibly read something other than manga.

"An interesting tale, Takuma-sama, Alice in Wonderland. It makes absolutely no sense, and that is what truly is keeping me reading it."

"Tell us some of the nonsense in it." Yuki said in a bit of an eager tone. And so, Ruka told them of such characters like the Mad Hatter, Cheshire Cat, and March Hare.

"Humans are such strange creatures." Aido murmured. "Coming up with such insane tales, what kind of time did they have on their hands?" Ichijo and Yuuki laughed. As the sun rose, everyone adjourned to their rooms for yet another quiet night. As they slept, however, Ruka's book shook on her desk, and started floating. It stood still for a few seconds, suddenly phasing through the window, not making a single sound. It floated up to the top of the moon dorms, spinning around in circles, sprinkling some type of dust. The eight snoozing vampires were completely unaware that the book was doing such a thing, but a mere piece of literature couldn't do such a thing, could it?

The night class awoke in a strange crop of woods, and they had absolutely no idea where they are or how they got here.

"Where the …?!" Aido's ice shaded eyes were wide and incredulous, as was everyone else's. Though Kaname still had his expressionless face on, he was surprised too.

"Where are we?" Ichijo exclaimed. Ruka eyes frantically scanned the place, a nagging instinct telling her that she knew where they were. A giggle echoed through the area they were in.

"Where is where, but anywhere?" A female voice called out.

"Who's there?" Aido snapped, examining the dark forest. Yet another giggle, which annoyed him. "Show yourself!"

"Showing myself, does that mean taking off my clothes? Heaven forbid!" But, nevertheless, the strange girl appeared in front of the confused vampires. She was fairly short, with hair as white as snow that trailed down to mid-forearm. She wore a pitch black top hat with a purple rose in the center, white and black striped slacks, a white vest, a red button up shirt, a black tie, and extremely dark sun glasses, so dark, they couldn't see the color of her eyes.

"Who are you?" Rima questioned.

"Is that bad?" The girl replied simply, hopping to a nearby branch.

"You're making no sense!" Aido hissed, frustrated. She let out a hysterical laugh and jumped not one foot away from him.

"I have all my senses in proper working order! Four out of five, to be exact!" She pursed her lips a moment. "You're quite feisty." the girl twirled around in circles, humming to herself.

"Uh … what Aido means is, where are we?" Ichijo interjected, asking far more politely, giving her his most angelic smile. She stopped spinning, giggling again.

"We're in wonderland, aren't we?" Ruka guessed, her eyes as wide as a child's. The mysterious girl shrugged.

"Is that what we call it? A land of wonders? Such a peculiar description." she shrugged yet again. Kaname sighed, a bit annoyed that this girl wasn't getting straight to the point.

"How'd we even get here?" Yuki wondered aloud. The girl grinned.

"Oh! I love this game!" she clapped her hands together in excitement, the other vampires stared at her like she was mad. "How'd you get here?" She repeated. "Or maybe there?" she pointed behind her. "Or maybe even down there! Of course, you'd be quite a bad seed!" she pointed to the ground, giggling madly. "Possibilities, possibilities indeed!" Aido groaned.

"You will tell us where we are and who you are," He growled threateningly, his hand clenching into a fist. "Or so help me I'll freeze your insane little head off!"

"You are here, and you are you!" She answered his questions, still grinning. Kain brought the palm of his hand to his face in annoyance. Aido attempted to throw an ice dagger at this insufferable girl, but nothing happened.

"Where's my ice?" His tone became alarmed. The vampires tried testing all of their powers, each attempt failing. Aido cursed under his breath.

"What kind of place is this? I've lost my ice!" The girl heard him rage around curiously, cocking her head to the side. It suddenly came to her.

"Hmm! You all must be looking for this, right?" She held up a bottle, inside it there were little wisps of different colors roaming around. Their abilities.

"Hand it over." He hissed, holding out his hand in annoyance. She stared, confused for a moment.

"Ah!" She jumped forward, shaking his hand. "I'm Fae, a pleasure it is to meet you." She lifted her hat politely, Aido spat under his breath, she didn't seem to notice, and continued. "And I am an entrepreneur of wondrous sorts!"

"Of what wondrous sorts?" Ichijo's eyebrow rose. She paused, pursing her lips.

"I don't have the slightest idea." She folded her arms across her chest, in some bizarre stage of deep thought. "But I imagine they're quite amazing!" Fae twirled in circles once more. Aido tried one of the most effective ways he used to get what he wanted. He grabbed her hands gently, trying to mimic the dashing prince most human girls tended to fantasize about.

"Fae-chan, won't you please tell us how to return where we came from?" she cocked her head to the side once more.

"I assure you, I'm not very hungry." she replied curiously. "But thank you for asking." he threw his hands in the air, exasperated.

"This makes me want to pull out my hair." He commented sourly.

"You have hair?" Her tone was honestly curious. His eyes widened in confusion. She stepped directly in front of him, slowly sticking her fingers in his golden strands of hair. Aido's body stiffened.

"Such a strange texture! It must be quite frustrating in rain, I imagine?" she twirled backward once more, although a mis-step made her sun glasses fly to the ground, revealing her eyes.

"Oh, poo. Not again." She whined immaturely, crouching down and feeling the rough ground for her glasses, she gave up rather quickly and shrugged. "A lens is a lens such as is tea!" Her eyes startled them, they were a few shades darker than the outside of her eyes. They knew now, she was blind.

"Oh my! It's half past the dark day, I must be going! It was rather humorous meeting you all, even the silent ones!" With a flip backward, she disappeared.

"Fae!" Aido shouted into the woods. "Come back here! We'll get lost!"

"It's quite fine, Aido!" She shouted back. "You won't truly ever be lost, just find your way through the many ways hidden in the abundant ways!" And she was gone.

"She's the strangest girl I've ever seen." Yuki commented, scratching her head. Kaname sighed once more, took Yuki's hand, and lead them into the dark woods.
