"Good morning Alice." greeted a soothingly warm voice.
"Oh, good moring to you too Julius, wait - JULIUS? What are you doing in my room? Do you need coffee? Do you (finally) need help fixing some clocks? Do you-
"Shhhhhh." said Julius holding Alice's mouth with his index finger. "I only came to tell you that you have visitors, and you have overslept a bit so I thought I should wake you up." he said with a smile.
"I overslept? Oh, I'm sorry." she said cheerfully. Both glaring at each other, smiling, then Alice asked,"I have visitors?"
"Huh? Oh, yes, uhm, you have visitors waiting for you outside." he said. "I think I should leave so you can get dressed."
"Okay, I'll be out as soon as I can" she said smiling. Julius left as soon as she said that and Alice climbed out of bed and got dressed, curious who her visitors might be and had a thought that it might be Peter White, but Julius said "visitors" so that means they're more than one. She came out of her room and headed for Julius' office and saw the Bloody Twins sitting happily on the sofa and saw Alice and greeted her.
"Onee-san!" the chanted together and ran to Alice and hugged her tightly and said,"We missed you! Let's go outside and play!" they said. "Come to the mansion, I'm sure boss will be delighted to see you." said Dee. Blood? Delighted to see me? He hates me, accusing me of seducing men, how could he say that? she thought to herself.
"Uhm, I don't think I can, see, Julius might need some help around the tower so I think I should -"
"No, I don't mind you leave," Julius interupted,"I'll be very busy with the clocks so you can go and enjoy yourself."
"Ugh, uhm, okay, I'll go." said Alice trying to smile convincingly," but only for a -"
"Yay! Let's go." they said grabbing Alice before she could say anything else.
While they were walking on the path to the Hatter's Mansion, the twins felt that somebody was near.
"Alice, stay back." they said together. They went out of the path making them enter the forest while Alice obeyed and stayed on the path. Dee and Dum were listening carefully, and suddenly... Ace appeared behind Alice! Ace carefully tried not to make a sound so he could surprise her, but before he could, the Twins turned around and saw Ace one pace away from Alice.
"Hey you! stay away from our onee-san!" yelled Dum.
"Hi Alice!"
"Ahhhh! ACE! What are you doing? You scared me!" screached Alice. "Yeah, you scared poor onee-san." said Dee. "Onee-san! We're sorry we didn't stay with you." they said adorably with concern.
"No, it's fine." she said cheerfully to not make them feel bad. "It's Ace here with the problem!" turning to Ace furiuosly,"What were you thinking?"
"I just wanted to surprise you, aren't you happy to see me?" he said with an innocent smile.
"Yes, you did surprise me!" she shouted, still annoyed at Ace.
"So you're not happy to see me?" he asked looking depressed.
"Sigh, if you hadn't had scared me then I would've been happy to see you," she said camly, feeling a bit sorry for Ace, "but since you did I'm now feeling a bit annoyed to see you."
"Oh, okay." he said smiling like nothing happened. "Anyway, where are you guys headed?"
"We're going to boss' mansion to play with onee-san, and no you can't come." said Dee sticking his tongue out at Ace.
"Don't worry, I wouldn't have gone with you even if Alice forced me." he said with a smirk.
"Where are you heading anyway, Ace?" Alice asked.
"Oh, almost forgot I have to go to Julius and -"
"What are you going to do there?" asked Dee and Dum.
"Uhm, never mind. I should get going." Ace said mysteriously and left going the wrong way.
"What a psycho," said Dum, "Yep." Dee said agreeingly, "Plus he's going the wrong way."
The three continued to go to their destination and when they entered the mansion, Elliot was there impatiently waiting for the Twins to arrive and when he spotted them entering the gates he rushed outside to meet with them.
"Where did you to stupid kids go?" he asked with rage,"Nobody was here guarding the mansion, you useless children."
"What's it to you? We were only picking up onee-san so we could play with her here!" said Dum sarcastically.
"What do you mea -" Elliot stopped, and saw Alice. Alice, looking at Elliot with a smile,"ALICE! Uhm, I didn't notice you there, I -I uhm, nevermind." He said frantically.
"Hello Elliot, it's nice to see you!" she said cheerfully. "I hope you don't mind me visiting, It's just Dee and Dum wanted to play that's all."
"No, no! It's fine. You are always welcome here, but boss isn't here so if you're tired you can go stay in his office and read as much books as you can!" he said happily.
"Oh, that would be nice!" Alice said with releif of Blood not being home.
"Well I have to go out for two hours so you have a great time," he said smiling at Alice, "As for you two, do your jobs! You retarted kids." he said turning to the Twins.
"Whatever! We're still going to play with onee-san, like it or not!" Dee retorted.
"Ughh, stupid kids." Elliot said to himself while leaving the mansion.
"Well now that pervert hare is gone," they said Dum, "Let's play!" they shouted together.
An hour has past and Alice became tired and asked if they could rest and have some tea and cakes. Alice then came back with their snack and they ate until they were full
so they rested for a short while, then the twins told Alice that she should rest in the boss' office and read some books while they stay on their guarding posts outside, Alice agreed and headed for the office. Knowing that Blood was nowhere to be found, she got a book and sat in the nearest arm chair. About seventeen long pages, Alice dozed off and dropped the book.
Alice, waking up slowly, noticed that she isn't in Blood's office anymore. She was lying down on a bed, wondering where she was.
"Had a good sleep?" said a deep cold voice.
"Blood? What am I doing here? Did you -"
"Before you can make any accusations, I would like to ask you the same thing, what are you doing here?" he asked.
"I'm here because the Twins invited me to come over and play." she replied grimly.
"And who told you that you can enter my office then fall asleep?" he asked.
"Elliot told me I can read some books after I play with the Twins," she asnwered back, "and if you don't want me to be here then I shall leave." she said coming out of the bed and walking towards the door.
"No, please, stay a bit longer. You wouldn't want to upset the Twins, letting them know that their beloved onee-san will leave." he said blocking the door.
"Well I'll just have to tell them that I have to leave. Besides, Julius might get worried." she said.
"The clock-fixer? He's never been worried about anyone his entire life." he said grimly.
"That's not true! He has a good heart -err- clock? Nevermind, he is a good person unlike you! He's not rude, or cruel, or deluded, or an accusor like you! she retorted.
"You've got some nerve saying that to me, in my own territory. Don't you know I can have you -" he said, trying to calm down. "But I did say that I developed a liking into you," he said seducingly, touching her hair, his mood changed caused by his countinuous mood-swings ,"Looks like you've succesfully seduced all the roleholders, what a bad girl," he said, dangerously close. He was leaning close trying to put his mouth near hers, while Alice was trying to push him away wich was useless because he had already kissed her.
"Did you enjoy thay?" he asked teasingly.
Alice was so angry that he slaped him but he was able to take hold of her hand before it hit his face. "Young lady, I think you shouldn't answer everything through violence."
"And who are you to say that? Being the mafia leader? You kill innocent people even if they don't deserve to die." she said with rage.
But in all of a sudden...
"ALICE!" cried a familiarly annoying voice.
