Chapter 7 (new)- The snake in action
Gil's POV
After the snake had taken possession of me, nothing was like before. I couldn't think straight, I hated the stupid rabbit too much that took Oz, my master, my friend, my love to him and the light he gave to my life away! I couldn't stand it any longer, that she was near me and took away everything, what I fought and grafted for! I went to the balcony door in my room, stepped it open and jumped over the railing. I needed a place to try out my powers and I already knew the perfect place to do it.
"Just wait B-Rabbit! Once I know how this new power works, I will kill you and make you return into the Abyss! Then I will have my beloved master just for myself, no one will be standing in our way, because I will make sure of that! Even if it is one of our friends who tries to take you away, I will prevent that! Then you'll be mine alone! Haha... hahaha... hahahaha!", I laughed happily and went to town.
There, I found a suitable place to try out my strength and even found a reason at the same time, when I bumped into someone.
"Hey!", a crude guy snapped at me.
"Can't you watch where you're going?"
Sardonically grinning I looked at him, grabbed him by the shoulder and clawed my hand into his shoulder.
"Hey! Ow what are you doing!?", the guy asked, irritated and tried to remove my hand, but he hadn't reckoned with my new power.
"You're my first victim hahaha!", I laughed and licked my lips.
Then I let the snake out and struck the man away from me, so he crashed into a nearby house. After that, I began frantically to destroy the whole city and everything that stood in the way. Blood splattered on my clothes and gave me an incredible feeling. At last! Now I had enough strength to destroy this wretched rabbit.
"Come out and show yourself wherever you are B-Rabbit", I cried laughing and continued to rage until I was interrupted by a sharp "Gilbert!". I turned around and grinned even more, because it was Alice, who had called for me.
"Perfect timing B-Rabbit", I cried and laughed.
"Gilbert! What is this? Why do you destroy the whole city?", Alice asked shocked.
"Oh that, I've only played with my new power! Isn't it lovely? So much chaos, so much destruction, so much power! Enough power to send you back into the Abyss B-Rabbit", I grinned.
"You...! You are not Gilbert! You would never do something like that!", she shouted angrily and ran up to me, but I dodged.
"But what are you saying then? I AM Gilbert, I do this all here only for my Master, because I cannot allow you anymore to be even close to him! You have always broken everything, you have taken away everything from me for which I fought and grafted in the last 10 years! You have to understand that B-Rabbit, this is reason enough for me to kill you!", I shouted and attacked Alice.
She dodged of course and her eyes glared at me.
"Damn, you let me no choice Gilbert, if you go on like this I'll have to stop you! Wuaaahhh!", she shouted and transformed into the big black rabbit with a huge sense of transforming that all so much feared.
"Oh she finally transformed! Well then, let the fight begin!", I said in my mind and put on a triumphant smile.
"You can't defeat me B-Rabbit!", I laughed as I ran on to Alice.
"We'll see that!," she yelled and tried to beat me with her huge scythe, but I dodged elegantly.
The snake attacked Alice from behind, but Alice didn't see that coming so that she crashed into a house wall. Suddenly she sallied out again and managed to hit me with a slight blow,
"Was that all?", I asked with a smile as I stood up again.
"Huh?" Alice made, when she saw me standing up.
"If that's all ... I'm a little disappointed in you, I would have expected more from you! Well anyway ... I've played enough with you. It's time to get serious!", I shouted and stormed back to Alice.
Oz's POV
A sharp pain in my chest and hellish battle noise woke me up. The seal had moved and I knew that Alice was involved in a fight; she probably fought with a chain fromthe Abyss at this moment, which perhaps had her memories.
"Damnit Alice at least wake me up before you go!", I hissed through clenched teeth and got dressed as the pain subsided. I quickly ran down the stairs into the city, the burning houses and the noise of battle was hard to miss. When I finally arrived in the city, I saw Alice fight against a huge chain that made my blood run cold. That was the snake Gil and I encountered in the mirror maze!
"It can't be! I thought, Gil and I destroyed the snake!", I exclaimed shocked and winced as Alice crashed against something again.
"I should better go and help Alice! Who knows maybe there's even a contractor in the area!", I shouted and ran to Alice.
When I reached her, I could not believe who was the contractor!
"Gil...? Gil is… the contractor?" I, mumbled confused.
No, that wasn't Gil, because I could no longer see his golden and soft eyes, they were red and hateful now. I didn't understand the world anymore, how could Gil be seduced by a chain, how could HE OF ALL PEOPLE ally with the snake and especially why the hell did he attack Alice? Suddenly, Alice let out a painful howl, which brought me back to reality.
"Gil! Gil! GIL STOOOOOOOOOOP!" I shouted with all my strength.
Puzzled, he looked to me as Alice turned back. He shivered suddenly and looked at me with horror and widened his golden eyes.
"O... z... what have I …?", he whispered.
Suddenly, the snake let out a bloodcurdling roar; it was so loud that Alice and I had to block our ears and couldn't see anything for a while. When I opened my eyes again, the snake was gone and Gil with it. Only his hat was left on the ground. I went to the hat, picked it up and looked at it. It was full of dirt and already full of cracks. I carefully freed it from the dirt and took it into my arms.
"Gil ... I'm sorry, if I had just ... looked more after you, then that would have never happened here", I whispered sadly.
Then Sharon and Break came over and asked what had happened. They could not believe it was Gil who had destroyed almost the whole city.
"What are you going to do now Oz?" Break asked smiling.
"Well, what probably you stupid clown, of course we will free him from this chain", Alice decided and patted me encouragingly on the shoulder.
"Do not worry Oz, we will save Gilbert," she said smiling.
