Misaki in Wonderland

Chapter Eleven: Chess

Misaki ran through the corridors trying to find the way back to Kuuga's room. When she had finally reached the door she slammed it opened. Kuuga was no where to be found. A guard had past by and Misaki called out to him. "Where is Knight of White?" She asked in a deep voice.

"You haven't heard?" The knight said.

"Heard what?" She asked.

"He was called to have an audience with the King of White."
"What for?"
"It is said that he will be off with his head because he was unable to complete his mission of capturing Alice."
Misaki bowed and ran off. She ran as fast as she could and managed to find the court room and opened it and went inside. Misaki looked around and found Kuuga in a cage hanging and the King sitting on his comfortable arm chair talking to a knight beside him. "Knight of White, I the King of White has called you to have you beheaded!"
"For what charges?" He yelled back, "I have not done anything to displease you!"
The king was wearing all white and a white crown was placed upon his blond hair and his brown eyes sparkled with amusement. "Because you have been seen with the Queen of Hearts."
Misaki and Kuuga's eyes widened. "For disloyalty to me, you are now sent to be beheaded."

"Your majesty!" Misaki said in a deep loud voice, "I have a question for the one to be beheaded."
The King nodded his head. "Proceed."
Misaki stood up and walked all the way to the front and looked up at then back at the King. "Have you heard of Alice?" She asked Kuuga.

Kuuga eyes widened. But then turned back normal. "I have." He said, "What of her?"

Misaki smiled and grabbed her helmet off and let her brunette hair tumble out and smiled at the King. "Because she is here."

Everyone started talking and pulling out their swords. "YOU IDIOT!" Kuuga yelled at Misaki.

Misaki smiled above and started to remove the armor as she walked closer to the King while having the sword wrapped around her fingers tightly. She pointed the sword at his throat and smiled. "I Alice, also the Queen's trusted knight (lie) am here to call…Checkmate."
The King smiled and stood up still with the sword pressed to his throat. He looked at Misaki and smiled. "What will a pathetic girl do?" He asked.

"You look no older then I do." Misaki retorted, "So what does a pathetic boy doing as king?"
He frowned in displeasure. He put his hand up to usher the knights to put down their weapons. "Let us have a friendly game of chess then." He said.

Misaki looked at him blankly. "I have already called Checkmate."
"Not quiet yet, you have cheated and we are not playing on a real game board."
Misaki looked up at Kuuga. "Then the prize will be the crown of both the White and Heart Kingdoms."
The King smiled. "Then call the Queen and her men and let us begin the match."

A knight blew a horn and a few hours later the Queen came in with the real Knight of Hearts trotting on her horse. "Misaki-Chan!" Sakura said in relief, "I thought something terrible had happened to you!"

Misaki frowned. "I think I did something extremely stupid." She said.

Sakura hugged Misaki tightly. "It's alright, we will win."
"I will slay them and we will call Checkmate." Shizuko said as she drew her sword.

Misaki scratched the back of her head. "I kind of said that I was Sakura-San's most trusted Knight…sorry Shizuko-San."
Sakura laughed. "Shizu-Chan don't be mad." Sakura said.

Shizuko sighed. "I'm more concerned about Misaki-San's welfare instead."
Misaki smiled. "I'm fine, I'll have you guys helping me so I'll be fine."
"But you'll be facing the Jabberwock!" Said a small high-pitched voice.

Misaki looked down to see Ruri. "How did you get here?" Misaki screamed.

"Sakura-Onee-Chan came by so I followed her."
Sakura smiled and patted the little girl in the head. "Is she in trouble?" Sakura asked.

"No." Misaki said.

"Sakura!" Kuuga said as he ran towards her.

The queen turned as red as her dress and stuttered. "Ku-ku-ku-Kuug-Kuuga?"

Kuuga hugged her and smiled. "I'm so glad you okay."
Sakura calmed down and hugged him back. "I thought you wouldn't see me again." She whispered.

Usui was suddenly standing next to Misaki and wacked her in the back of the head. "Why are you so stupid?" He asked.

Misaki rubbed her head. "I couldn't help it! I couldn't have Kuuga-San just get beheaded for him seeing Sakura-San!"
Usui hugged her. "Don't do that again…your worried me you idiot."
Misaki turned red but then hugged him back. "Sorry." She whispered into his ear.

"Is Misaki-Chan and Usui dating?" Sakura asked.

Misaki pulled away and waved her hands in front of her. "Me and Usui aren-"
"Are." Usui finished.

Misaki gasped and punched Usui on the shoulder. "Stop presuming things!"
Usui smiled and grabbed her hand. "If I am able to stay alive with everyone trying to kill me, then you will become my girlfriend."
Misaki looked away and then gazed back at him while turned as red as a tomato. "Fine."
They had all relocated onto a huge chess board like field. The king was in the back middle just like the queen was. He whistled and the huge flying beast came and crashed onto the middle of the chess field and made a horrible sound. Misaki was dressed in a red and black armor that fit her snug and was easy to move through and stepped forward with a shield and sword in hand. "LET THE GAMES BEGIN!" Someone yelled.

The Jabberwock slashed at Misaki put she evaded it and tried hitting the beast with the sword. It blew fire but Misaki hid behind her shield and managed to keep from being hit from the fire. Misaki ran at the beast making sure it wouldn't slash at her and swung her sword down at its tail. It shrieked and threw Misaki against a stone pillar. Usui got a throwing knife out of his belt and threw it at the Jabberwock. "This is not a match between us!" The king proclaimed, "But you have changed that! Charge!"
Everyone charged for one another but left Misaki and the Jabberwock to fight. Misaki shakily got up and shook her head. She looked up to see the beast drooling above her. It brought its' head down trying to bite her head off only to miss and see Misaki's feet in his face. She had kicked him while she evaded him. Misaki got up and swung at the beast and cut the beast shallowly on its' leg. It clawed Misaki and before she could guard herself the shield was flung far away across the field. Misaki looked around and found the worn out stair case beside her and ran towards it. She ran up the spiraling stair case and looked back to see if it was following and saw nothing. She stopped at the top and looked around. She turned and jumped when she saw it right in front of her. She slashed at the Jabberwock and cut its' eye. It screamed and took a few steps back and ended up falling. Misaki smiled. She looked at the edge but then saw it flew back up with a closed bleeding eye screaming at Misaki. It clawed at her and cut the back of her armor. Misaki screamed and fell to the ground. She slowly stood up and ran up the next stair case with the beast going to same way blowing fire at her as she ran. She looked around at the top to find herself trapped at the top with no exit except to jump off and maybe die or go the same way as she came that was currently blocked by the Jabberwock. It got up and blew fire. Misaki evaded it and slashed at it only to miss and have its' hand on top of making it useless for Misaki to get it from it. Misaki ran and dodged. It moved its arm and Misaki dived for the sword.

It all happened so fast. Misaki managed to get the sword and stab the Jabberwock in the chest. It screamed and started to breathe fire and stomp all around.

Misaki screamed and evaded its slashes. Then it slashed her front and she felt the wound. She gasped and screamed and clutched her front as she took quick breaths. The monster fell on top of the battle field and the fighting was hauled to look at the fallen beast. Misaki slowly got on her feet and got to the front to show everyone. She clutched her front with one hand and put one of her arms up. The men of Hearts cheered while the King cursed and threw his sword down. Sakura and Shizuko smiled and hugged while Kuuga smiled and patted Ruri in the head. Usui dropped his weapon and ran towards Misaki. She could feel herself losing so much blood. She looked down to see a small puddle of blood forming. "MISAKI!" He screamed.

Misaki smiled and hugged him. "I got you all bloody." She whispered.

Usui smiled and laid her down. He moved away her bangs and kissed her on the lips. "Its alright…you can wake up now."
Misaki shook her head. "What do you mean?"
Usui kissed her again on the lips. "It's time to go back to me and be my girlfriend."

"What?"
Suddenly, Misaki fell unconscious and looked around to find herself in the student council room leaning against someone's shoulder and the wall. She looked up to see Usui sleeping and holding her hand. She smiled and kissed him on the cheek. He opened his eyes only to smile. "Is Prez trying to take advantage of me while I'm sleeping?" He asked.

Misaki would have turned red and said that was stupid but she didn't feel like it. She grabbed his tie and pulled him to her lips and kissed him. Usui smiled and kissed her back. "Misa-Chan's lips taste like cake."

Misaki laughed then kissed him again. "Problem?" She said.

"Nope."
