Chap 25: Absolem on crack! 0_o
"My name is Alice Kingsleigh."
"Axel and this is um…my pet, got it memorized?"
After they were fairly acquainted, Alice was kind enough to lead him to a space spot in exchange for Axel protection from the Wonderland creators like flying butterfly breads, large insects and hazards in the road. Cutting tall jungle grass, climbing oversized mushrooms and fending off hungry flowers, they finally reached the safe house Alice discovered. It was a space big enough for at least a few people, surrounded by tall grass for camouflage, a mushroom big enough to shelter 2 people and a pet heartless and the mushroom was edible unlike the others. And the strange thing is…It bared apples…Weird. But it keeps them alive.
"Please sit." Alice offered a small flat rock under the umbrella mushroom.
"Sweet place. How did you find it?" He sat while helping himself to some apples over his head.
"I saw it in my dream…Well, this is my dream." Her words caused the red head to show a sceptical look.
"You think this is a dream?" Axel asked and Alice nodded almost immediately.
"Sorry to break it to you…But…" He saw that child innocence in her face. She reminded him too much of Olette. Hopeful and naïve…He would be damned to hell if he breaks her perfect world…
"Yes?" She asked with a smile.
"Nothing." The red head took a bite of the lush apple that taste oddly like chocolate.
"Well, Alice I see you met a friend."
They turned to one of the creepy trees and only witnessed a wide grin. It was freaky! Almost scared Axel shitless and the little Heartless retreated to the red head's arms. But when Alice showed no fear, he figured it was a friendly creature. A creepy scary friendly creature.
"Cheshire! Don't frighten them." She called happily.
"My apologies." It was then a cat formed on the tree with the same wide grin. Axel nervously smiled back with the Heartless glancing at the cat quickly before burying its face in his master's neck again. And the cat just couldn't help but widen his grin more. (If that was even possible.)
The creature evaporated away to Axel relief but he jumped angrily when it reappeared next to him.
"My…My…My…I haven't seen these little things in a while…" the Cheshire cat stared at the Heartless while Axel protectively hugged it.
"Back off." He threatened it darkly.
"A warrior with hair of burning dusk and intense acid green orbs…accompanying Alice…? The prophecy of Frabjous day…" The cat grins as he floats closer to him.
"You must meet Absolem."
"Absolem? That rude blue caterpillar? No, he's a terrible one. Saying I'm the 'wrong' Alice." The blonde child raged ladylike.
"He's veeerrrryyy wise. Maybe…he can answer teeellll yooouuu everrryyyttthiiiinnnngg." The cat temptingly whispered in his ear. Axel tried to smack it away but the feline evaporated and found next to Alice.
"Where is this Absolem?" He demanded.
"No, Axel. He's dreadful!" Alice warned.
"Their coming! Their coming!" A white rabbit in a waistcoat jumped out of the jungle grass.
"Oh right…I came here to tell you the Red queen's knights are heading this way. Goodbye…" The cat made his escape.
"Hey! Come back here, you coward!" Axel yelled but he was gone.
Before Axel could recover from his rage, the white rabbit took Alice by the hand and led her away.
"Come now before they catch you!" the bunny told him. He soon fallowed them into the strange world hearing clanking armours nearby.
Axel and Alice barely caught up with the swift white rabbit. The English girl almost tripped but the red head was able to guide her safely with the Heartless in his arms.
"We're here…" The rabbit said gesturing them to hush before disappearing into a colourful flower bed. They kept their pace to keep the white hare until they were distracted by the scent of smoke.
"Absolem!" the mammal cried.
Axel and Alice came out of the leafy jungle coughing from large amount of smoke in the area.
"What's with the smoke? Is this Absolem on puffing crack or something?" The red head asked between coughs.
"Hardly." A deep voice was heard. They looked around until a blue caterpillar crawled out of the shadows.
"So, are you going to tell me more about how I'm the wrong Alice?" Alice crossed her arms and huffed in annoyance.
"I said you're hardly Alice…I never said you were the wrong Alice, you stupid girl." The insect puffed smoke from his hookah and released the bad air to them causing them to cough even more.
"Quit it!" Axel demanded catching Absolem's attention.
Observing them carefully while puffing more smoke at the red head, the blue caterpillar came to an interesting conclusion but if anyone knows the cunning Absolem he'll never say anything straight out and just speak in riddles…
"Fetch the Oraculum." He said to the white rabbit who immediately pulled out the scroll and unrolled it until the long paper was at their feet for all to see.
"What is it?" Axel asked.
"It's a calendar, they say. Tells what will happen in the upcoming days…Ludacris if you ask me." Alice stated.
The rabbit and caterpillar were silent a while waiting for Axel to judge for himself on the Oraculum. The red head sees the clever pen and ink illustrations of the prophecies till he found something interesting.
"This is Griblig Day that's today." The rabbit said while Axel saw the drawing.
It was…Alice and him reading the paper together with Absolem and the white rabbit by their side…
"T-That's me…"
"The Oraculum states that the cruel tyrannical reign of the Red queen, since Horovendoush day, she took the crown of the White Queen, shall end on the Frabjous day." The blue caterpillar started off as their eyes travelled to the end of the scroll.
"2 champions of the White Queen, Alice and a lone stranger with red blazing hair and green eyes shall slay the Jabberwocky with the Vorpal weapons and free all of Underland and the White Queen shall reign once more."
Axel then saw a picture of him in armour holding chakrams and Alice in a battle maiden attire while carrying a sword facing a vicious looking dragon.
"And…You think this…is me?" He asked humorously yet they were serious about this.
"Don't be ridiculous, Axel. We are no champions and we don't slay…" Alice said.
"See the end of the Oraculum, boy." Absolem ordered and the red head complied and it shook him to the bone.
It was him holding a lifeless body in his arms. He impaled with sorrow and loneliness looking down at the teenager's body. A beautiful smile sculpted on the teen's face with tears flowing down his cheeks, Axel held him tighter in an embrace…
This teen was…fading…This teen was that blonde…This teen was…R…o…x…
"You have to…be joking."
"The Oraculum doesn't lie." The white rabbit stated.
"Everything in it is true but the scroll tells only half of the story…" Absolem puffed more smoke at them.
"It's up to you how you make the rest of it." The caterpillar than starts to disappear in his own smoke.
"Until we met again." He said.
"Wait!" Axel tried but the smoke was too thick.
"I'll take you to the White Queen. She'll help." The white rabbit wrapped up the scroll.
"Now, hold on just a minute!" Alice stumped.
"We're not going anywhere! We're not going to this white queen! We're not going to fight the Red queen! We're not going to slay!" She yelled and stumped some more.
"Unfortunately, 'WRONG' Alice, you have to." The rabbit said pointing a finger at the girl.
As the 2 fought, Axel was fighting his own thoughts of what the Oraculum showed him. Him fighting with Alice to save Wonderland…? And that…That blonde…Why does he feel like they have some kind of connection? The Oraculum…? Tells half the story. If only he could know at least know about the blonde…At least half of what this blonde meant in his life…Maybe the Oraculum…The White Queen…
"Can the White Queen help me?" Axel asked suddenly.
"Of course! If you help her that is." The mammal answered.
"If I help her and save Wonder…I mean…Underland, she'll tell me about the Oraculum."
The rabbit could only nod causing Axel to plaster a determined look.
"Axel, you're not serious." Alice was at disbelief.
"I'm in." He said.
"Good. I'll take you straight to the White Queen." The rabbit was about to lead them until they heard frantic noises headed towards them. Clanking armour…
"RUN! It's the Red Queen's knights!"
The rabbit was hopping away but a net was fired at the hare and he was caught. Alice and Axel couldn't do anything but run while a tall soldier with a black heart eye patch picked up the Oraculum…
"Arrest them." Stayne ordered.
"Dead or Alive, Sir?"
"What do you think?" He gave a grim look and the others just gulped.
"Catch them!" One of the guards in red armour that was strangely shaped like a card said.
"Come on!"
Axel, with the Heartless safely clinging on his back, ran faster into the woods while Alice was already at her limit. She tripped on a root leaving her weak.
"Alice!" He yelled rushing to her.
As Axel checked if she was ok, the English blonde gave a look. It meant to abandon her. If he didn't, the guards will capture him. But despite Alice's expression, the red head wasn't willing to leave her behind.
"I'm not leaving you here!" He picked up the girl bridal style and ran off.
