EXECUTIONS
hee hee hee hee hee/ let's see if I can get everything in this chapter, hmm? Hee hee!
His eyes snapped open. Pain was making his heart throb in his ears, but he payed it no mind. A sword appeared in his hands. He wasn't the one moving his body. He knew it was Hichigo.
"Off with his head says the queen!" Hichigo laughed, pulling himself off the table with no effort at all. He slashed right to left, splattering himself with blood as he cackled loudly. He pulled the robe off the dead girl's body, tying it loosely around himself. He strapped his sword to his back. Running as fast as he could.
The air was fresh. There was nothing but a maze of walls as far as the eye could see. "Where are we?" he asked.
"In a place called soul society, alice king. It's a bad place here. We have to get away quickly" Hcihigo held his hand out in front of him, a black portal swirled open, before they could escape through it, a rope wrapped around them, pulling them from the portal. "GET OFF ME!" Hichigo screeched, tearing through the rope. A sword was at his throat in seconds.
"Hurry, restrain him." ordered the dark haired man that had first captured them. They were tied down and dragged back into the blood stained room, where the 'killed' girl was already getting back up again.
Hichigo yelled and screamed and cursed as he was tied down again, kicking wildly at anyone who came near enough. He calmed down though when he heard the soothing voice of his Alice King.
"What will we do with it?"a young woman asked. That question seemed to be asked around here a lot. An old man stepped into the room.
"It is sudden, but from the way he acted and nearly killed Nemu-san, I say we keep him in imprisonment until Mayuri can deal with it."
"Don't I get a say in this?!" he shouted. "You just kidnap me and decide you'll keep me here?! When I wasn't bothering anyone?!" he could almost understand why Hichigo was so angry. All the people in the room looked at him as if they were shocked he could speak.
"Queen says off his head must go, and off does go his head." Hichigo hissed. They were taken to a tower made of white stone. Kept in there. "We can get out. I can blow it up." when Hichigo tried, the stone merely sucked up the blast. "Is alice king alright?" Hichigo asked worriedly. Really, his insanity was probably the one he should be worried about. They couldn't even get out through the portal.
"You are to be examined, once more." the man called Mayuri opened the door, pulling him from his cell.
Ichigo said nothing. He tried to quiet the racket Hichigo was making, because whatever the man Mayuri was saying was being blocked out. He was once again strapped to the cold steel table, cut up and prodded. He dealt with the humiliation. But Mayuri must have found something interesting, because his yellow eyes widened.
In a bad way.
"Get rid of it." he told the girl in a cold tone. "Get rid of it, get it out of soul society, I don't care what you do just do it!" he rushed off. The girl simply stared at him for a long time, as if thinking of something much more important. She slowly unstrapped him, but was stopped by a wrinkly old hand.
"Mayuri found something interesting, Nemu. Put him back into his cell. He will be killed." hichigo began screeching at the old man's words. Fighting with him for dominance. He held Hichigo back.
"Alice King! Get away! Let me out! I'll save us!" but he didn't listen. They would wait for their chance.
A few more days passed. He spent most of it letting Hichigo touch him and kiss him. "Stupid stupid Alice King. Stupid and selfish, never thinks about the queen." Hichigo hissed angrily, smiling falsely at him.
As he was taken to a hilltop across a bridge, his mind wandered off. Back to wonderland. He followed the White Rabbit.
"Stupid Alice! Don't follow me! Mind the hole! Hurry back!" Hichigo called to him, running forward as fast as he could go. He followed, until he fell into the hole without as much as a scream. "Stupid alice! Get away! Out of wonderland! Wonderland is dangerous! Run and never follow! Never ever follow the white!"
But he hurried after Hichigo anyway, until he found himself in a hall of doors. He pulled and pulled, until he found the door to wonderland. He wanted to follow the white rabbit. He found a key on a table, matching the key hole to another door. His world. He sighed. He did not want to go back. Not yet.
He regained his grip on reality when he was high in the sky, floating, waiting for his death. He could see about 26 faces staring at him. They were like pinpricks.
"Listen to me, Pretty Alice King. I am going to save us. But you must promise you survive. And that you go strait back." Hichigo was frowning at him, in his rare show of seriousness.
"Go back where?" he asked. He didn't like the feeling he was getting, like he was going to lose something. Hichigo gave him a strained smile.
"Home. Promise you go home." he simply nodded. He felt heat on his skin as he came face to face with a colossal bird of fire. "Promise me, you go home?"
"Yes Hichigo. I'll go strait home." he didn't know how he would find his way back, but if that's what Hichigo wanted. Not that he didn't want it too. He could feel his body surge with power. And then he felt weak. Very weak.
He looked up and the howling sound of the wind. The bird of fire was being sucked up by Hichigo. His brain felt like it was being split apart into tiny pieces. He could hear yells from down below, but couldn't make out what they were saying.
All his dreams passed before is eyes backwards. The warnings from the white rabbit, the trial in which he'd so calmly said off with his head. Those words were ringing in his ears. Tatsuki and her smile, and her bloody dress and the way she kept laughing and laughing and bleeding and bleeding. The birdcage he'd been locked in so many times. So many times locked up and loved in such a dangerous way.
He felt like he was being led back into the cage now. Hichigo yelled something at him. And he felt himself falling. Not fast, or slow, just falling. Like he was hitting snags, pausing. The dreams, the screaming. Hichigo screaming off with his head, the card guards advancing on him. And the birdcage, the black hole, the dagger the smile, the fog. All of it was just going backwards.
Like all of that was being rewound. Like it never happened. And all the memories were just folding themselves up back in his head, before bursting out in wondrous colors. He was falling still. no one could stop him. He picked up speed until he was hurtling through inky black nothing, colors and fireworks and flowers bursting behind his eyes. Cold wind whipped at his face, water splashed all around him.
Then he caught sight of Hichigo. Walking away from him. He wanted to stop so he could run to him. "WAIT! WAIT FOR ME!" he called. He tried to stop the blinding lights and the water and the wind. He tried to stop the falling, because honestly he hated falling when Hichigo wasn't there beside him.
Hichigo was being swallowed by the darkness, locked up away from him. "Don't follow me." Hichigo's blank face and harsh words made him freeze. "Don't you dare follow me. Run and never follow. Never follow the white." he disappeared completely
and he fell back into the black. Until he landed with a horrible crash. And the colors stopped blooming.
He knew he was no longer in wonderland.
