4. Fatherly Love and Music

Any sane person would know by now that the people in that room had gone crazy and run for their life, and just like the sane 16 year old girl she is, Alice ran.

It took a while before realization had struck all of them and they started to get up and chase her.

Alice had started to panic and run faster as they made their way through the door and caught up (A/N Ryohei Sasagawa moment) EXTREMELY fast!

Alice then looked side to side thinking of running into the forest WITHOUT running into the Jokers' territory.

As she went to turn, 3 figures came out of her direction, causing Alice to jump.

She ran faster away realizing who they were.

"Alice~! Why are you running from me~?" The smiling idiot of a knight asked joining in the chase with him, Boris, Peirce, Blood, Julius, Vivaldi, and Gowland at the front with Peter, Elliot, and Gray close.

"Wow..." Alice muttered wide eyed as she stumbled. 'Who would have thought that Blood, Julius, Vivaldi, and Gowland would be pretty fast and even try to run?' Alice giggled a bit as she thought that, but then quickly remembered the situation she was in.

"Onee-san!" The blue twin had whined as he and his brother started to slow a bit behind Boris. "Wait for us!" The red on stated afterwards.

Alice stared back for a bit but only to speed up.

"Do you hate us Onee-san?" They stated together with a pout as Alice looked back and saw it also seeing Nightmare at the far back slow down to a stop, hack up blood, and fall straight to the floor as he yelled, 'Bloody murderers!'

Alice slowed a bit feeling bad until she felt something grab her arms and legs. "What the-!"

"Sorry Alice, but it has to be done." The pink punk cat said grinning holding her legs in the front as Gowland held her arms in the back just smiling up like a creeper while Peirce ran by Alice's side arm's tucked by his side saying a million 'I'm so sorry Alice!'

"I just couldn't let the Gay Hatter get to you first, now could I?" Gowland laughed as Blood fumed, but didn't say anything since he was out of breath.

Gowland humphed triumphantly still running.

"Let me down!" Alice yelled while flailing her legs and arms everywhere while Boris and Gowland only grinned.

At The Amusement Park

Alice sighed sitting by the table drinking her milkshake she had gotten a while back.

"Did you like it?" Gowland smirked at Alice.

Alice just shook her head as she sighed once again thinking, 'How did I get stuck in this situation?'

-Flash Back-

Alice had finally entered the Amusement Park still being carried by the punk kitty and the owner of the place.

"Can you put me down now?" Alice complained still lightly blushing trying to keep her dress from showing anything she didn't want to peek out show.

"Not til I know you won't leave." Gowland smiled.

"Depends, are you going to play your violin anytime soon?" Boris asked the older man in Alice's place.

"Only if Alice asks." Gowland laughed as Alice paled.

"Please, I promise I won't leave if you don't play your violin."

"Yay! Let's all go get some tea!" Pierce cheered as Boris looked at him with a gleam of light on his dark eyes.

"Who said you could come?" Boris said as he chased after the mouse.

"Well we should go get some drinks, huh?" Gowland asked as he caught Alice from fully falling to the ground.

- End Flashback-

'Oh yeah...' Alice thought with a lone sigh to herself.

"Well anyways, deary, which role holder do you love the most?" Gowland asked causing Alice to spit out her shake.

"Wh-what?" Alice stuttered not sure if she had heard right or not.

"Oh come on, you can tell me. I know there is someone out there you love most."

"Woah... You're like the father that I never had." Alice said looking down at the floor.

"And you're like the daughter I never had." Gowland smiled as he petted the girls head.

At first Alice seemed a bit shocked, but then she slowly brightened.

"So I could always treat you as if you're my father, right?" Alice shined as she took her 'father's hands.

"Of course!" Gowland shined as they shared the same aura.

"Well I just wanted to tell you, since you asked, about the people I like." Alice said sheepishly.

"Well go on, don't be so shy."

"I like all of them, but not like... you know." Alice trailed off blushing a bit.

"Yes, yes I know how you feel. Especially since you live with people who are all family-like." Gowland pointed out. "Like Gray is motherly, Julius is fatherly, and Nightmare is brotherly."

"Oh... That is... really true now that I think about it." Alice laughed out a bit. "But if Julius was my father, then I have two fathers and a mother which is kind of weird."

"Well Julius likes you a bit more than a father should, Alice..." Gowland said scratching the back of his head. "Anywayssss... Let me play a song for Alice~!"

Said girl paled at the thought of Gowland's horrible excuse of music. "U-uhm i-its okay, really."

"Nonsense!" Oh no Gowland was in playing position.

Alice was about to cover her ears, when she heard the complete opposite of what she was expecting.

"I-its... beautiful." Alice said as she released the tension in her muscles.

"I thought I could learn 'Ave Maria' to play for my beautiful daughter." Gowland smiled.

"It's beautiful! It really is!"Alice exclaimed at the dramatic change of his playing.

"Yeah, I admit it was way better than it was last time. Maybe I just needed someone dear to me to inspire my love for music." The park owner said still playing as he smiled at Alice.

"Gowland..." Alice said as she looked a bit shocked at the man's statement.

"You can call me Dad or Father if you want."

Alice smiled and ran up and hugged Gowland.

"I love you Father!"

Gowland stopped playing and hugged Alice back for a bit.

All of a sudden you hear claps and cheers in the background.

The two let go of each other and looked around.

Tons of faceless people were cheering for Gowland's beautifull playing and some sobbed at the scene.

Alice blushed as Gowland just laughed.

Just then a certain cheshire cat came through the door.

"I heard Mary was actually playing the violin beautifully to where people dont run away! It's impossible, right Alice?"

Alice laughed until she realized a dark muderoud aura from behind her.

"Damn you Blood. No one would've known if you didn't go telling everyone about that!"

"Oh father..." Alice sighed out.
