CHAPTER 3: Alice of Human Sacrifice: Lloyd, Zelos, Colette, Genis & Raine

The group of five was camping outside Meltokio. It had been three years since they saved the world.

Lloyd stood. "I'm bored. Wanna tell ghost stories?"

"Sure," Genis said.

Colette clapped. "That sounds like fun!"

"Eh. Kay." Zelos shrugged.

"I might as well." Raine put down her book.

Lloyd told them, "We're all going to come up with a part to it. I'll start... Once upon a time, there was a little dream."

Zelos continued it. "No one knows who dreamt it. It was such a small dream."

It was Colette's turn. "This made the little dream think: 'I don't want to disappear. How can I make people dream me?'"

Then Raine. "The little dream thought and at last had an idea."

Genis continued the story as everyone's eyes turned red. "'I will draw people to me.... and they will make my world."

Lloyd started singing. "The first ALICE was a gallant red one. Wielding a sword in a hand in the Wonderland. Slicing down everything in his way. He was followed by a bloody red path. This new ALICE deep in the woods, was trapped as a wanted fugitive. If it weren't for the red path that he made, no one would think he even existed..." He dropped to his knees, closing his eyes.

Zelos then started. "The second ALICE was a fragile blue one. Singing to the world in the Wonderland. Filling regions with false created notes, that were of a crazy blue world. This new ALICE was that of a rose. He was shot and killed by a madman. It left a flower blooming sadly red. The one who was loved was now forgotten." He dropped to his knees and closed his eyes.

Colette then started. "The third ALICE was a little green one. Very cute and dear in the Wonderland. She charmed people to her every beck and call. She made a strange green country. This new ALICE was the country's queen. She was taken over by a distorted dream. She was afraid of losing to death. She would forever rule her country."

Raine and Genis then sang. "During this two children walked in the woods. They had a tea party under rose trees. An invitation from the castle for them was... the trumps card of hearts! The fourth ALICE was two siblings. Their curiosity in the Wonderland. They went through many different doors. Coming not too long ago on a yellow boat. The stubborn older sister! And smart little brother. Though they were closest to ALICE'S WONDERLAND! They were never woken from their deep dreaming. They forever wandered in the Wonderland!"

It happened because of this cursed story....

Lloyd singlehandedly sliced down many on Derris-Kharlan, then was trapped in its forest. Zelos was shot and killed by a madman because of his songs. Colette forever ruled Derris-Kharlan. Raine and Genis never woke up from their dreams of the Wonderland...
