The first Alice bravely entered Wonderland, sword in hand.

Cutting down countless creatures, she left a bright red path in her wake.

That Alice is in the forest,

Locked away like a criminal.

Aside from the path she made in the forest, there is no sign that she existed.

Naruto of the Human Sacrifice

Chapter Two- The Red Alice of Spades

"Where the fuck are we and where the hell are the other fuckers? I can't fucking believe our asses got separated from the others and-" Hidan was about to continue when he was suddenly punched by a chakra clad glove sending him about ten feet ahead still cursing. "Ugh, I never thought I could find someone more freaking annoying then Naruto but you just proved me wrong" an angry Sakura said as Gaara and Sasori watched silently as Hidan got up and reached for his scythe. "Why you big forehead bitch, that fucking hurt-" "What did you just call me-" "I called you a big forehead bitch-"

Gaara and Sasori just walked pass the two arguing and dueling hot heads as they tried to find a way out of the forest. "See anything yet" Sasori asked as Gaara used his third eye jutsu to scout ahead. "There seems to be a faint path ahead but it goes through the trees so let's maneuver around them while trying to stay on the path." The two redheads agreed and looked back to the cursing and punching pair. "Do you think we should just leave them and tell the others they got separated from us…?" Sasori asked looking at his silent partner who just sighed and said that they wouldn't believe them besides they don't seem like the ones to be lost easily."

Gaara and Sasori both sighed, eyes closed, before side-stepping as Hidan went sailing pass them and into a tree that was blocking the path. Looking at Sakura, who was breathing heavily after punching Hidan numerous times, they said that they found a path and began to walk away. Blinking and straightening up, she dusted herself before running after the redheads ignoring sir cuss-a-lot who was cursing as he picked himself up. "Damn pink-haired bitch" Hidan muttered before he raised his scythe as if to strike. "Hidan don't even think about trying to sacrifice her for your ritual" Sasori said not once turning around as they walked around trees and exposed roots. Growling, Hidan started twirling his scythe and threw it at the redheads where it sliced in half…the tree Gaara and Sasori was about to walk around.

"You two damn idiots are making it too fucking hard, just cut the damn trees down or get "Temper" over there and have her ass knock them down with her fucking fist already" Hidan said as he continued to swing the scythe clearing a path ahead of them. Seeing it as a way to channel her pent up anger, Sakura quickly begin to punch the trees down as the redheads followed clearly agitated. "You don't even know if you're disturbing something's sleep by all the noise you two are making. Besides it would easier to just walk around and conserve out chakra." Hidan and Sakura continued to destroy nature around them as if not hearing them before they came to a clearing.

"See that was much easier and we almost out the forest" Sakura said proudly as she showed them a break in the trees ahead just past the clearing. "And you two fuckers were scared some shitty ass creature was going to come and eat your asses" Hidan said smirking as he embedded his scythe into the tree looking at Gaara and Sasori. Gaara and Sasori however were both frowning as they looked at each other thinking the same thing as they backed away from the clearing before stopping. "Hey what the hell is wrong with you two…you look like you two fucking seen ghosts or some shit" Hidan said as he and Sakura noticed the two quiet shinobi looking around and cursing as they banged onto the air behind them.

"You two idiots, we're in some kind of barrier" Sasori said as he and Gaara continued banging onto the invisible barrier blocking them from going anywhere. Sakura and Hidan then walked around and met the same barrier as they also tried to break through but with no prevail. "We told you cutting down the trees was a bad idea…LOOK" all four noticed that trees that had been destroyed by Hidan and Sakura were still destroyed but a large red trail was left in its path that led right towards them. "What the- trees don't bleed" Sakura said shock as Hidan scuffed saying that it was nothing but a trick as he pulled his scythe out of the tree. Turning towards him, the group heard a soft "glub glub glub" sound as they noticed that the tree Hidan's scythe had been in was now gushing blood as a few drops dripped from his weapon.

The wind begin to pick up inside the barrier, the metallic smell of blood heavy in the air, as the group entered the center of the clearing, looked around for the danger they sensed. "Who will be the red Alice?" a voice in the wind said before chuckling as the blood oozing from the trees slowly puddled on the ground towards them from all around making them huddle tighter. "Who will be the red Alice?" There was a soft rumble as the group moved forward barely avoiding a giant pit filled with what they thought were thorn-like chains that slithered around as vines tried to grab them. All four moved into a different direction until they were all separated now, in smaller circle as the blood flowed past them into the pit where the sounds of screams could be heard. Everybody was actually scared, except Hidan, for they knew something would happen to them and they didn't know what.

"What the fuck is going on around here?" Hidan yelled angrily, dropping his scythe, as he and the rest of the group covered their ears over the hellish screams but somehow was able to still hear the voice in the wind. "You have entered my world on your own free will as a shortcut to the other side. I allowed you in here but you repay my kindness by cutting and destroying my forest…THAT I will not allow. You will have to pay for your crimes." The voice said as Gaara, Sasori, Hidan, and Sakura were suddenly grabbed by vines from the giant pit that restrained them from using their hands or legs. "Who will be the next red Alice?" the voice cried as the wind began to blow strongly against them yet somehow keeping them in place. The four ninja were terrified as they felt the wind stopped and all grow quiet in the forest, even the sound of the bleeding tree had stopped as they waited to see who would be punished.

"You will be the next red Alice…HIDAN!" The wind cried, the vines around him slowly dragging him back into the pit where the thorn-like chains shot out and constricted as they trapped him and dragged him down into the pit with them. "What the hell…save me…SAVE ME!" Hidan yelled as he felt the chains that felt like fire tear into his body as they dragged him into the pit. Hidan kicked up the cord of his scythe and held on to it just as he was plunged into the thorny prison below him. The last thing he saw and felt was the color red as the blood from the trees covered him, entered his body where he screamed out as his whole body became stiff, leaves sprouting from his fingers, legs molding together covered with bark, and his skull split open revealing branches full of leaves as Hidan was dragged down into nothingness.

Sakura, Sasori, and Gaara watched as the vines released them before heading back into the pit along with all the blood. "Well that was a reli-" Sakura begun to say but turned around in time to be cut in half by Hidan's scythe that was pulled along into the pit with its master. Sakura green eyes blinked once before losing their life as her two halves fell to the forest floor, the two redheads watched with shock on their faces. "She had to be punished for she had done wrong too" the voice said as two vines wrapped around Sakura's two halves and pulled her into the pit before closing with a low rumble. "You two are safe to leave for no harm you brought and the red Alice has been sacrificed, leave and do not return…" the voice said as the blood was absorbed into the soil, the pit closed and disappeared, and the trees stopped bleeding.

Gaara and Sasori collapsed in their spots as they were having a hard time supporting their way, rewinding what just took place in their minds as they looked at each other. Sasori, the first to stand, went over to Gaara before offering his hand in help, which Gaara took thankfully and they supported each other out of the clearing and to the exit of the forest. "We…will have to…tell them what…happened. We…need to…warn people…about this place." Gaara said weakly as he felt his vision going in and out as a splitting headache came over him. "I don't believe…that we will…ever find this place…again." Sasori said as he helped Gaara through the exit where they saw a camp nearby along with Kisame, Nagato, and the rest of the Konoha 11 who didn't go with the group.

"What the hell happened to you too and where are the others?" Kisame said as he went over to help them back to camp where they gave a description of what happened before exhaustion took over and they fell into a well-deserved sleep. Everybody in the camp was silent as they looked at the ominous forest that seemed to be daring them to enter its realm. 'Konan, Itachi, please be alright' Nagato and Kisame were thinking as they sat and waited to see who in the next group would survive. As the group in the camp was scared for our friends, the voice in the wind smiled as it spotted the next team that was to meet his second challenge. "Who will be blue Alice of diamonds?" the voice said leaving the clearing where a newly grown tree was planted a three bladed scythe hanging from its branches and pink flowers with green centers blooming around the base.
