The Dragon of Ice

Chapter 41: The Monks in Wonderland

At the Xiaolin Temple...

Alice quietly crept out of her room in the middle of the night and carefully headed towards the meditation room.

When the fourteen year old was in the vault, she took out the Phantom Key to use it.

"Phantom Key!"Alice chanted.

The Phantom Key activated a portal and Alice jumped into it to get back to Wonderland.

However, unknown to Alice, four figures jumped into the portal as well just before it closed.


In Wonderland...

Alice walked in the Crazed Clockwork with the Cheshire Cat right next to her.

In the fourteen year old girl's hands was a staff that looked crooked and bent since it was made of wood.

The wood material crept up the shaft to form a hook, which allowed only one fitting attachment.

"The Staff only lacks the Jabberwock's eye."Cheshire Cat replied. "Though he has two, I understand he's quite fond of them both."

"You mean I have to somehow carve out one of the monster's eyes to complete this staff?"Alice scoffed with a frown. "I doubt that sicko will happily give me one for free."

"Each piece brings you closer to the endgame, Alice."Cheshire Cat sneered. "But alone, each is worth less than a matchstick."

Then Cheshire Cat disappeared from Alice's sight.

Alice entered the Mad Hatter's lab as equipment rumbled and electricity crackled.

The Dragon of Ice watched as a giant pair of tongs picked up a bunch of metal materials, dropped them onto a conveyor which pulled the materials into the neighbouring machine.

Then the mechanical parts get dropped into the top of the machine.

"Dormy, wake up."A voice said. "Someone's come to release us."

"It's just a human."the other voice retorted. "Probably useless."

Alice looked at where the voice was coming from and saw two figures that shocked her.

The mutilated, half-mechanical Hare was strapped to a vertical board and Dormouse, also now half-mechanical, lied strapped to a table and his metal limbs were twitching uselessly.

"Hare?"Alice asked with a startled look. "Dormouse?"

"Undo us, please Alice, from this contraption."Hare begged.

"Or you can give us tea, if you prefer."Dormouse suggested.

Alice stared up at the machine where the metal parts were dropped into.

"Were you impolite at table?"Alice questioned as she put her hand on her hip. "Did you slurp your tea? Or talk while chewing? Confess your crime."

"We've done nothing of the kind."Hare replied. "It's the Hatter. He's gone quite mad, if I do say so. Speaking of which, how is the Queen of Hearts not like a typhoon?"

Alice still stared at the machine.

"Both are powerful, destructive and indiscriminately cruel."Alice answered while staring at the machine. "But the typhoon doesn't mean to be."

"Good answer."Hare said. "Wrong, but good."

Alice walked away from the machine (and it's conveyor belt) and approached Dormouse.

"Oh, I beg your pardon."Alice commented. "You are in real danger. Where is your host?"

"Real danger? Are we? Really?"Dormouse asked and looked at Hare. "Hare, I wish to go home."

Alice notices a robot rolling off the machine's conveyor belt and dropped out of sight.

"Evidently I have worn out my welcome."Dormouse said. "The Hatter will be here at 6. Sharp as clockwork."

"Misses no opportunity to deny us our tea."Hare declared creepily. "Most cruel, I'm sure. And his medicine makes me tired..."

Alice simply shook her head, knowing there was nothing she can do for these creatures that have lost their minds and decided to look for someone that can help her out.

The pink haired girl headed down the stairs to continue to explore around Crazed Clockwork.

Alice carefully peeked and saw two phantasmagoria guarding a door beyond the hallway.

Alice got her Komori Sword out and used it to slash the monstrous spirits down.

Then Alice opened the door and found Gryphon inside a prison cage.

The Gryphon was a gigantic and majestic creature who was part lion and part eagle.

"Those two seem to barely comprehend their situation."Alice complemented.

"They're blithering idiots."Gryphon responded. "But the Hatter does come at 6 on the dot."

"For his tea?"Alice guessed.

"No."Gryphon answered. "To check his cruel experiments. With gears, springs, levers and mechanical gizzards, he seeks an impossible precision like a watchmaker obsessed with infinitesimal fractions of seconds or a mathematician who tries to square the circle. He'll turn all the inhabitants into his automatons or kill them in the attempt."

"That's simply awful."Alice scowled in anger. "6 o'clock, you say?"

"6 precisely, by that clock."Gryphon replied.

Alice looked at clock in the wall and saw it was almost 6 o'clock.

Then an idea popped into her mind.

"Hmm...perhaps 6 comes early today."Alice suggested with a small smirk.

Alice heads out of the room to carry out her plan.

The fourteen year old girl heads back to where Hare and Dormouse were as loud foot steps were heard behind her.

Alice slowly turns around and sees the Mad Hatter, wearing a nasty smile on his face.

"I hate doing this."Alice thought with a frown."But as they say, a friend today can be an enemy tomorrow."

The Mad Hatter's top hat opened and a small bomb flew out of it.

Alice quickly dodged the bomb before it exploded.

The Mad Hatter seized the opportunity to bring his cane down on the defenceless Alice, but the young girl took out her Komori Sword to block the cane from hitting her.

Alice kicked the Mad Hatter causing him to be sprung backwards with his mechanized legs.

"Teapot Cannon!"Alice chanted.

Alice uses the Teapot Cannon to fire hot tea at the Mad Hatter.

The Mad Hatter screamed as steam rushed out from his ears causing Alice to slowly back away.

The Mad Hatter stiffens as mechanical parts fall from his hat, then his head explodes and his body toppled to the ground.

"My gosh..."Alice mumbled in shock.

A sound of a cage opening causes Alice to turn around.

Gryphon flew out of his cage and lands in front of Alice.

"With gratitude, I offer you my services."Gryphon requested with a bow.

"Promise only what you're prepared to deliver."Alice responded with a troubled look. "I am destined to battle the Red Queen. The outcome is uncertain."

"You won't fight alone."Gryphon assured with a smile. "Permit me to serve as your commander. I'll muster the forces whose allegiance your courage and skill have already won."

"How shall we prepare for battle?"Alice asked.

"An assault on the Queen depends on breaching the gates to her kingdom."Gryphon stated. "Only the Jabberwock's Eye Staff can pry them open. If you open the gates, I'll lead the troops to victory. Let us right the wrongs of this world, together."

Alice nodded before getting on the Gryphon's back and they take to the air.

Gryphon pauses at the roof of the chamber and releases a burst of blue flame which smashes the roof open and they fly away from the Mad Hatter's domain.


Alice and Gryphon flew for some time until they came to an area that resembled a mountainous area with lava rivers.

"Recruit whatever allies you can, Alice."Gryphon instructed. "We'll need them all. I'll return with reinforcements. Take heart."

Gryphon flew away, leaving Alice on the ground.

Alice began approaching a shaft of light in the rocky tunnel as Cheshire Cat appeared beside her.

"I have a bad feeling about this, Cat."Alice complemented.

"Confront what frightens or offends you."Cheshire Cat instructed. "Reckless or insulting talk should never go unchallenged."

Suddenly Caterpillar emerged from the cave, complete with fez and hookah.

"You? Bizarre creature!"Alice scowled angrily. "I was beginning to like you!"

"Like me or don't. But believe me."Caterpillar replied. "The Jabberwock must be eliminated now. Blow open the gates and confront the Queen."

Alice took out the staff to show it to Caterpillar.

"I don't have the final piece of the Staff."Alice said as she held out the Staff. "Without his eye, how can it be done?"

"I don't know. But you must."Caterpillar answered. "The situation is urgent."

"What good are you to me?"Alice questioned bitterly. "I'm supposed to attack this ferocious creature; but I'm not even sure this is my fight."

"It's no one else's, Alice."Caterpillar admitted. "Only you can save yourself."

"Save myself? From death?"Alice asked. "Is that it? Is that why I've come here?"

"Not death."Caterpillar responded.

"What then? A fate worse than death?"Alice demanded. "I'm not stupid. Don't make me think you are."

"Think what you will. But know this. You withdrew from your world after the fire because you could not bear your terrible loss."Caterpillar responded. "When you answered Rabbit's call, you began to emerge from your tragedy. Stay on this path, Alice. Save yourself, and you will save Wonderland. You will restore us all."

Alice looked down for a moment before looking at Caterpillar.

"What I've been feeling, I am beginning to understand."Alice replied. "I broke this world; and only I can repair it."

"Go well, Alice. The Jabberwock waits."Caterpillar warned. "With Gryphon as your partner, you have reason to hope for success. He's the strongest among us."

Alice glanced at Cheshire Cat.

"Gryphon's an ideal partner."Cheshire Cat stated. "Perhaps I'll just retreat for a nap."

"Really, Cat?"Alice asked with a frown. "You'll have a nap in a time like this?"

"I am not the one for jokes, Alice."Cheshire Cat sneered. "The Queen's guardian rarely leaves his filthy lair."

The Cheshire Cat disappears and Alice ran off to head to the Jabberwock's Lair.

Omi, Kimiko, Raimundo and Clay were walking around the Canyon of Fire, but they didn't know which one of the four passages to take.

"Alice must have went through one of these tunnels."Omi suggested. "We just need to go into the right one."

"I don't know about you, partner."Clay said. "But we're gonna need someone to help us out in this one."

"I doubt there is anyone in this area that would give us answers instead of attacking us."Dojo responded nervously.

"Knowing where you have come from is important in forming an idea of where you want to go."Cheshire Cat's voice admitted.

Dojo hid underneath Clay's hat in fright as the Cheshire Cat appeared at the top of wooden signpost.

"Are you young warriors lost?"Cheshire Cat asked.

"No, grinning cat."Omi lied with a proud smile. "We are Xiaolin warriors, we are not lost."

"We actually are, little buddy."Clay reminded.

"Do you know what is this place, Mr Cat?"Kimiko asked. "We don't know where to go."

"You and your friends are in Wonderland, my dear."Cheshire Cat purred. "But as you can see this land is in the middle of destruction."

"Destruction?"Dojo gulped.

"Who caused this place to be so darn awful?"Clay asked.

"We, Xiaolin Warriors, will happily take down this evil that is spreading destruction in this land!"Omi vowed and did a few fighting moves. "What is the name of this foe?"

"The one responsible for Wonderland's destruction is the one your looking for."Cheshire Cat stated.

Omi, Kimiko, Raimundo and Clay glared at the Cheshire Cat.

"No way!"Kimiko argued. "Alice would never do such a thing!"

"She is our friend and wouldn't be responsible for this world's destruction!"Raimundo snapped.

"You're correct in what you're saying young monk."Cheshire cat purred. "Alice did not harmed Wonderland directly."

"What do you mean?"Raimundo asked.

"What do you think Wonderland is?"Cheshire Cat asked.

"It's a...world?"Omi guessed.

"You're only half correct, young monk."Cheshire Cat replied. "Wonderland only existed through a person's imagination. Someone who is always curious. Someone eager to learn and have great imagination. Also...lacking in friends."

This caused Omi, Kimiko, Raimundo and Clay to become surprised.

"You mean Allie made Wonderland?"Clay asked in surprise.

"We're in a girl's mind?!'Raimundo said in shock and shivered in disgust. "Eesh!"

Kimiko glared at Raimundo as Cheshire Cat grinned smugly.

"It seems to me like I'm explaining to a statue."Cheshire Cat sneered in amusement. "We're inside an imaginative world made by a girl. Not in her mind."

"Oh right!"Raimundo said in relief. "What happened? What did Alice do to turn Wonderland into this?"

"To seek the answer you must scour the source but be tact or else you will face a banshee's wrath."Cheshire Cat replied smugly.

The Cheshire Cat disappeared from the monks sight.

"Phew. His gone."Dojo said in relief. "That cat's grin was really starting to bug me."

The four monks looked at each other and headed to the passage that will take them to the Jabberwock's Lair.


Alice slowly arrived at the Jabberwock's Lair to confront her enemy.

There the Dragon of Ice saw the Jabberwock standing on a platform suspended over a gaping void and circled by burning walls.

"You've kept me waiting, Alice."Jabberwock stated grimly. "Have you never heard that punctuality's a virtue?"

"You and my dentist's assistant have much in common."Alice scowled with a glare.

The Jabberwock prowled around the platform as he circled Alice.

"You're habitually late, aren't you?"Jabberwock retorted. "Between your dim-witted daydreaming and your preening vanity, the hours just fly by; there's barely time for anything else."

"That the best you can do?"Alice asked sarcastically with her arms folded. "Hurl second-rate insults? They don't hurt..."

"Your family was expecting you to come to them, weren't they?"Jabberwock asked. "Perhaps they thought you might warn them of the danger...being close to the source, as you were. But they waited in vain, didn't they, and died for their trouble."

"We were all asleep."Alice protested weakly and shook a little. "It was an accident...I..."

"You selfish, misbegotten and unnatural child!"Jabberwock snapped. "You smelled the smoke. But you were in dreamland taking tea with your friends. You couldn't be bothered. Your room was protected and spared while your family upstairs roasted in an inferno of incredible horror!"

"NOOOOOOOOOO!"Alice screamed in anger and sorrow.

Alice takes out the Komori Sword and launched herself towards the Jabberwock.

The Jabberwock dodges Alice's swipe and blasted fire at her.

Alice quickly backed away from the blast of fire that was trying to burn her alive.

The Dragon of Ice slashes the Jabberwock's arm with her sword causing the monster to roar at her.

Jabberwock knocked Alice to the floor with a swipe causing the Komori Sword to move away from the girl's grip.

The Jabberwock stalked toward the helpless Alice and blasted fire to kill her.

"Thorn of Thunderbolt!"Omi chanted.

"Star Hanabi, FIRE!"Kimiko chanted.

"Silk Spitter!"Raimundo chanted.

Omi and Kimiko blasted the Jabberwock with electricity and fire before Raimundo fired strands of spider silk at the Queen's guardian.

Clay took out his rope to bring Alice, where he and the others were.

"Guys?!"Alice said with a stunned look.

"Impudent brats!"Jabberwock growled.

The Jabberwock prepared to attack the monks, but then Gryphon flew in and attacks, ripping out one of Jabbewock's eyes.

The Jabberwock roared before flying away to escape.

Gryphon stood in front of Alice as the Jabberwock's eye floated nearby.

"Hurry, Alice."Gryphon instructed. "The Eye Staff is yours. The troops are gathered, everything is ready. I'll deal with the Jabberwock. You are our champion. Lead us to victory in Queensland."

Gryphon flew away from Alice, leaving her along with her friends.

Alice picks up the Jabberwock's eye and placed it on the staff causing it to power up.

Then the Dragon of Ice looked at Clay, Omi, Kimiko and Raimundo.

"What are guys doing here?"Alice questioned with a glare.

"We came to find you, Allie."Kimiko responded. "Master Fung told us to follow you where you went using the Phantom Key."

"That's right, missy!"Dojo added with a frown. "We all know that you have been using it behind our backs!"

Alice picked up the Komori Sword before taking out the Phantom Key from the left pocket of her dress and threw it to Omi, who caught it.

"Take it. Use the Phantom Key to get back home, but I am staying here."Alice replied. "You guys don't belong here."

"Allie, what is going on?"Clay demanded. "Why don't you want us to help you?"

"This is my fight alone."Alice retorted. "Neither of you wouldn't understand even if I told you."

"Then tell us so we can!"Raimundo insisted. "We are supposed to be a team!"

"Come on, pinkie!"Dojo encouraged. "It's better to reveal things to your buddies instead of hiding them!"

"It is not very like you to fight without your friends."Omi commented.

Alice looked away from her friends for a moment before looking back at them.

"Look...I...I am not really a Hanson."Alice admitted. "The Hansons took me in after I lost my biological family."

Clay, Omi, Kimiko, Raimundo and Dojo were surprised what Alice just said to them.

"You guys must be wondering what happened to me?"Alice asked and let out a sigh. "Seven years ago, my entire family was burned in a fire. I was the only one who survived."

"That's horrible!"Kimiko said in shock. "How did it happened?"

Alice took a deep breath before continuing.

"I was sleeping in my room, dreaming of having tea with my friends in Wonderland when all of a sudden, I smelled smoke in the air."Alice explained and closed her eyes tightly. "I don't know how the fire started but I woke up to see myself surrounded by flames. I rushed to my parents room in hope of saving them, but the fire took them away from me. I would have gotten killed too if I didn't escape from my bedroom window. Seeing my family burned into ashes made me lose my mind. For three years, I was instituted into an asylum where the treatment was inhumane sometimes."

Alice began to clench her fists tightly as tears came down from her face.

"There are times when I wanted to take my own life, to be together with my family but the nurses kept on stopping me."Alice cried and covered her face. "For seven years, I lived with this guilt of surviving that fire! I can still hear their voices, telling me to save myself and leave them behind! I should have died in that fire with them!"

Clay, Omi, Kimiko and Raimundo went up to Alice to hug her.

"Alice, your parents love you."Raimundo admitted. "The last thing they wanted is to see you come to harm."

"They would've wanted you to be happy with your new family and us, sugarcube."Clay agreed.

"Is that why Wonderland is destructive, Allie?"Omi asked. "Because you are ashamed of your past misdeeds and leaving those you loved behind?"

"Yeah."Alice said simply and dried the tears from her eyes. "That's why I didn't you all of this in the first place. I just didn't have the courage to do so."

"We are really sorry, Allie."Kimiko apologised. "We had no idea that you were hurt."

"It's just so sad!"Dojo cried and blew his nose with a tissue.

"Alice, allow us to help."Omi requested. "With us, Gryphon and the others behind your back, we can make Wonderland the way it use to be."

"Are you guys sure?"Alice asked with a small smile. "It's gonna be dangerous."

"Dangerous?"Kimiko asked smugly. "We laugh in the face of danger! Ha! Ha!"

"We kick evil and danger's butt all the time!"Raimundo sneered. "But mostly when we are in Earth."

Alice chuckled a little and smiled at her friends.

"Then let's save Wonderland together!"Alice insisted with a brave smile. "I know the fastest way to Queensland!"

"That's the spirit!"Clay chuckled.

"There is the Alice we know and love."Dojo remarked.

Dojo made himself big and the five monks went on his back before they took off in the sky.


Alice, Omi, Kimiko, Raimundo, Clay and Dojo flew to a round arena surrounded by hard, rocky surfaces and a moat that separated it from it from the rest of Wonderland.

It had an uneven ground and was looked down upon by a fire-consumed sky.

"Are you sure this staff with that creepy eye will open the bridge?"Raimundo asked.

"Yes."Alice replied as she held out the Jabberwock's Eye Staff. "Cheshire Cat said this staff is incomparably powerful, but its individual pieces are worth less than the carcass of a gnat."

"Gnat?"Omi asked in confusion.

"He means a mosquito."Alice responded.

The five monks landed off of Dojo's back and the green dragon shrunk into his small size.

"Guys, look!"Kimiko gasped.

Alice, Omi, Kimiko, Raimundo, Clay and Dojo looked above the sky and saw Gryphon fighting against the Jabberwock.

Gryphon engaged in aerial combat until the Jabberwock lands a fatal blow which knocks him to the ground.

Gryphon lands an a green slab of rock in the middle of a rock platform.

"Gryphon!"Alice cried out.

Jabberwock flew over and destroyed the wooden bridge off the platform, then lands to taunt Alice.

"How typical."Jabberwock taunted in fury. "How foolish you were to think you could overcome your guilt."

Alice, Omi, Kimiko, Raimundo, Clay glared at the Jabberwock while Dojo hid behind a bush to avoid being in the fight.

"Seismic Kick, EARTH!"Clay shouted.

Clay strike the ground with his foot, creating several fissures and earthquakes to hit the Jabberwock.

The Jabberwock flew to the air to blast fire at the five monks causing them to jump out of the way.

"Typhoon Boom, WIND!"Raimundo yelled out.

Raimundo leapt up and clapping his hands together, creating a burst of powerful wind to sent the Jabberwock down.

"Tornado Strike, WATER!"Omi shouted.

"Judolette Flip, FIRE!"Kimiko yelled out.

Omi generates powerful streams of water from the tips of his hands and Kimiko does a flip accompanied by searing flames to hit the Jabberwock.

Dojo crept out of the bush and sighed in relief, seeing that the Jabberwock was defeated.

Alice shoot a powerful laserbeam at the Jabberwock using the Eye Staff.

The Jabberwock roared in pain and died on the ground.

Alice knees beside the mortally wounded Gryphon while the other monks stood behind her.

"Well done to all of you."Gryphon responded with a weak smile. "You've destroyed the Queen's guardian and avenged my death. Enter the ultimate battle."

"Must I fight on?"Alice asked nervously. "Can't the Red Queen be persuaded to surrender?"

"True words and logic rarely defeat evil intent. She is still strong."Gryphon replied. "And so many have been harmed. They want revenge, which we call justice. She made this world, and she must pay. You must lead our forces against her."

"I'm...not sure I know how to lead."Alice cried.

"Do your best, Alice. You can only do your best."Gryphon encouraged. "You can always do...best."

Gryphon closed his eyes and Alice sobbed in grief as the drawbridge lowers.

Clay takes off his hat as Omi, Kimiko, Raimundo and Dojo looked at Gryphon in sadness.

The Cheshire Cat appeared next to Alice.

"Without Gryphon, our forces are leaderless and a battle has begun."Cheshire Cat warned. "Deliver from this evil or let us perish."

The Cheshire Cat disappeared as Omi gently placed his hand on Alice's shoulder.

"We must continue going, Alice."Omi stated. "We have a great battle ahead."

Alice stood up and dried her tears.

"Yes, let's get going."Alice agreed firmly.

When the group approached the castle gates, a dead Card Guard falls in front of the gate from above.

The group immediately ran toward the door and pushed it open together.

Inside the castle, they saw the White Chess pieces fighting against the Red Queen's card guards, pushing them back against the palace gates.

Alice, Omi, Kimiko, Raimundo, Clay helped the White Chess pieces fight the card guards.

"They must be that Gryphon fella's troops."Clay suggested and punched two card guards against the wall.

"It's funny that chess pieces and cards know how to fight in a battle."Omi complemented and washed away a few card guards. "How strange this world is."

Raimundo punches a card guard on the face to knock him down.

"They're a pack of cards, but they're so annoying!"Raimundo scoffed and kicked a card guard away.

Alice blasted the card guards with the Jabberwock Eye staff.

"If they make their queen angry, they are usually executed."Alice admitted.

Kimiko shot fire blasts at the card guards using the Star Hanabi.

"You mean she executes her own guards?"Kimiko said in shock.

"Go, Alice!"the White King Chess Piece encouraged. "Leave the wretched queen's guards to us! Save Wonderland!"

"Thank you for the help, your majesty."Alice responded with a grateful smile and looked at her fellow monks. "Come on, guys!"

The five monks barged into the hallway of the palace and raced through the blood red walls and ramparts that were surrounded by lava.

Any card guards of the queen that the young warriors encountered were immediately defeated.

Alice slowly approached a giant bronze door with her friends closely behind her.

Cheshire Cat appears next to Alice.

"Bravery and I are not on intimate terms."Cheshire Cat declared. "My natural curiosity is tempered with caution thus I've lived long."

Cheshire Cat vanished and reappeared to Alice's left.

"But now, ignoring my instinct to flee or fib, I speak the truth without regard to consequences. Your courage deserves no less."Cheshire Cat stated and appears to Alice's right. "You have suffered great pain and you've caused some. You've endured deep grief and feelings of guilt.

The doors behind Cheshire Cat slowly opened.

"But you will be tested by a more wrenching anguish, Alice."Cheshire Cat warned. "There is worse to come. You and the Red Queen cannot both survive. You are two parts of the same..."

Suddenly a long red tentacle from the opening doors burst out and slapped Cheshire Cat, sending the grey cat to be slammed a few metres away.

The Cheshire Cat falls into unconsciousness as Alice, Omi, Kimiko, Raimundo and Clay watched the tentacle with horrified looks as it emerged back into the dark room.

"Cat!"Alice cried out.

"That's it!"Raimundo snapped angrily. "This creepy hag is going down!"

"Raimundo, wait!"Kimiko protested.

"Raimundo!"Omi shouted.

"Don't leave us behind, partner!"Clay called out.

Kimiko, Omi and Clay followed after Raimundo into the throne room as Alice glanced at Cheshire Cat, who laid on the floor and wasn't moving a muscle.

"What did you mean about that last part?"Alice thought.

Without a second thought, Alice quickly rushed after her friends.

The group entered a massive room that had a red carpet that lead to the throne.

The five monks see a old woman with a crimson face wearing a red dress with white black patterns sitting on the throne. There were red horns on her head, her hands were red claws and her legs were tentacles.

It was the Red Queen.

"Off with your heads!"Red Queen declared grimly.

The Red Queen lift herself off her throne and sent her tentacles to attack Alice and her companions.

"Scatter!"Alice protested.

Alice, Kimiko, Omi, Raimundo and Clay jumped out of the way from being hit by the Red Queen's tentacles.

The Red Queen lifted herself up from her throne and stood up high before firing magic projectiles towards the monks.

The group dodged behind the pillars before the projectiles could hit them.

"Taste this, flesh lady!"Kimiko retorted and took out the Star Hanabi. "Star Hanabi, FIRE!"

Kimiko used the Star Hanabi to distract the Red Queen with bolts of fire.

"Orb of Tornami, WATER!"Omi shouted.

Omi leapt onto a pillar and used the Orb of Tornami to blast the Red Queen with a blast of water.

"Third Arm Sash, EARTH!"Clay yelled out.

Clay used the Third Arm Sash to punch the Red Queen's tentacles away.

Raimundo flipped out of the way to dodge from being hit by a few projectiles.

"Sword of the Storm, WIND!"Raimundo shouted.

Raimused used the Sword of the Storm to create powerful gusts of wind to send the projectiles back at the Red Queen and hit her.

"Teapot Cannon!"Alice chanted.

The Dragon of Ice takes out the Teapot Cannon to hit the Red Queen with boiling hot tea.

The Red Queen screamed in agony before collapsing near her throne.

The five monks carefully approached the Red Queen to see if she was dead.

Suddenly blue white sparks leap from the Red Queen and went toward Alice.

Alice gets enveloped in a glowing armour-like aura and a circling spark.

"What is happening to me?"Alice said with a stunned look.

The big tentacles suddenly pulled forward while the Red Queen disappeared into the hole in the throne.

The tentacles grabbed Omi, Kimiko, Raimundo and Clay before pinning them hard against the wall.

"Guys!"Alice cried out and glared at where the Red Queen was. "You evil..."

Then something shoots out of the hole, knocking Alice to the ground.

A hideous red skull-like head with glowing eyes emerged from the throne with a golden crown on her head.

"I rule Wonderland alone. Your interference will not be tolerated."Red Queen warned in a deep voice. "This realm is for grown-ups; raw, well-ordered, ruthless, careening on the jagged edge of reality. Self-pitying dreamers are not wanted here."

Alice glared coldly at the Red Queen as she clenched the Komori Sword tightly.

"They cannot survive here. You fear the truth. You live in shadows. Your pathetic attempts to reclaim your sanity have failed."Red Queen scowled cruelly. "Retreat to the sterile safety of your self-delusions, or risk inevitable annihilation. If you destroy me, you destroy yourself! Leave now and some hollow part of you may survive. Stay and I will break you down! You will lose yourself forever!"

Red Queen retreated into the hole in the throne causing Alice to glance at her friends, who were still trapped.

"Allie!"Raimundo shouted. "Go!"

"Save Wonderland!"Kimiko called out.

"Save yourself!"Omi insisted.

"But..."Alice started worriedly.

"We'll be fine, sugarcube!"Clay assured.

"It's all up to you now, Alice!"Dojo declared.

Alice nodded at her companions and headed into the hole, only to find herself in a arena that had a circle of rock islands.

The ones at the corners were larger, providing safer fighting ground.

The Red Queen floated in the center of the ring in her hideous true form before diving down into the darkness to resurface elsewhere.

Alice held out the Komori Sword as she searched carefully for the Red Queen.

A few projectiles were sent towards Alice causing the pink haired girl to dodge them and carefully kept her balance to prevent herself from falling into the darkness below.

Seven tentacles were sent towards Alice, but the Dragon of Ice dodged and slashed them away with the Komori Sword.

"Freeze Powder, ICE!"Alice shouted.

Alice leapt up and releases chilling blasts of powdery snow at the Red Queen to freeze her.

However the Red Queen was not affected by the ice attack, but roared loudly and angrily before emerging back into the darkness.

The Red Queen appeared behind Alice and fired a splatter of green liquid from her mouth causing the young girl to quickly jump to another rock island.

Alice took out the Jabberwock's Eye Staff, only for the monstrous being to slap her away to another rock island and the weapon fell into the darkness below.

The pink haired girl wiped away the blood that was on her lip as she glared angrily at the Red Queen.

The Red Queen fired a magic blast from her mouth to kill Alice.

The Dragon of Ice jumped out of the way and winced a little when she notice the slash on her left arm.

Alice looked at the monstrous queen and notice a red glow coming from her chest causing her eyes to widen in realisation.

"I am done avoiding you, your majesty."Alice admitted smugly and took out the Komori Sword. "Here's payback for all the pain and suffering you caused in Wonderland!"

Alice jumped off the rock island and did a big leap as the Red Queen roared and sent her tentacles towards her.

The fourteen year old girl sliced down three tentacles of the Red Queen and rode on one as she held the Komori Sword in her grip.

Alice threw the Komori Sword towards the Red Queen's heart, killing her.

The Red Queen roared in pain as her body goes limp, then twitched and thrashed violently before exploding.

Alice landed on a rock island and ducked her head down as a burned organ of the Red Queen was thrown past her.

Suddenly a brilliant white glow enveloped Alice and a shockwave expanded from her, turning the barren rock to green grass.

Wonderland and Alice's Sanity was restored.

It's as if it was all a wonderfully horrible dream.


Alice and the other monks found themselves in a peaceful green field surrounded by beautiful flowers and a few big mushrooms.

Omi, Kimiko, Clay, Raimundo and Dojo all cheered at Alice for defeating the Red Queen.

"Way da go, Allie!"Raimundo laughed.

"Alright!"Kimiko cheered.

"Pinkie, you did it!"Dojo remarked. "You won by a land slide!"

The Cheshire Cat, White Rabbit, Caterpillar, Mock Turtle, Gryphon, Hare, Dormouse, the Mad Hatter and all the creatures in Wonderland cheered at Alice.

"We knew you could do it, Alice."Gryphon stated proudly.

"Wonderland is saved."Caterpillar declared and smoked a little. "Your sanity is restored, Alice. Now we are all free."

"And just in time too."White Rabbit complemented and checked his pocket watch.

Alice smiled at Cheshire Cat, who gave her his usual big grin.

"Let's celebrate with a tea party!"Mad Hatter insisted and held out a teapot.

"I love drinking tea!"Omi remarked.

"Let's hope that their tea is drinkable and their treats taste good."Clay whispered.

"Oh, they do."Cheshire Cat sneered. "You all will enjoy it."

Alice smiled at her fellow monks and her Wonderland friends with a grateful smile as she joined them for her victory party against the Red Queen.

Tomorrow the monks will be back in the world of reality and fight their enemies, but for today they will enjoy themselves being in Wonderland.
