Kingdom Gundam: Chapter Seven
Duo happily put Alice down, in the Bazaar Room. Trowa had move to a pink chair, near a flat clock, eyes closed, sleeping.
Thank you for saving me, Alice said.
You're mighty welcome, Duo said, his hands in his pockets. So, what did that fat queen want with such a beautiful young lady?
Excuse me, ma'am-
Duo asked. I'm a guy.
Why do you have long hair, then? Alice asked, puzzled.
I've been growing it ever since I was little. I just never cut it.
Oh. Well, she thought I tried to steal her heart, when I'm only trying to get home.
I know that feeling, Duo said, edging closer to Alice.
So, you're supposedly an accomplice with this Duo Maxwell, the queen said.
No ma'am, Wufei said. I traveled with him, and that's it. We have no relation.
The queen said. That seems pretty odd to me. Where are you from?
Originally from Traverse Town, Wufei lied. Then my parents moved here when I was younger. As I turned of age, I went back to Traverse Town.
What's your purpose here, if you moved to Traverse town?
I've come to celebrate and commemorate the Queen's Unbirthday.
Today is my unbirthday! The queen exclaimed, as if just remembering. Wufei smiled; his plan was working.
So, what world are you from? Alice asked.
A place, in a galaxy far, far away, Duo said.
That sounds like a book I read once!
There they are! said a voice.
Duo asked, looking up. Wufei was in front of a large army of cards. The cards ran from behind Wufei and circled Duo and Alice, their spears pointed at them.
In the name of the Queen of Hearts, Wufei said. I place you under arrest for the kidnapping of Alice from a court of law and assault of the queen, Duo Maxwell.
Woofie! What are you doing?! Duo asked, angrily.
Wufei yelled. Take them to the queen!
Duo yelled, as he was being taken back to the court. This isn't supposed to happen! Wufei followed the cards back. Once Wufei returned, the court reopened. The Queen of Hearts waited patiently for his return.
That was quick. Quicker than what I expected, she said.
It was easy to find the culprit, Wufei remarked. He didn't have the wit to take her somewhere else. Alice was put in a birdcage, near the front of the courtroom, and Duo stood on the stand.
My! What an intelligent tongue you have! The queen marveled. Wufei bowed low to the ground.
Duo mumbled.
The queen yelled at him, making his hair and clothes blow back. For kidnap and meddling in the courts affairs, I find you guilty! Do you have anything to say in your defense?
Can I have a witness? Duo asked.
Go on, The queen said.
I call upon the fear of fears, Duo said, grinning suspiciously. For I have figured out your fear. I demand that the Cheshire Cat come here! Wufei crossed his arms, knowingly.
Well? Where is this Cheshire Cat? The queen asked.
You, above all others, should know, Wufei said, walking towards the stand. That the Cheshire Cat comes and goes as he pleases. Making it difficult for anyone to know where he appears and disappears to and from. I do congratulate you, on figuring out my fear.
Cat cr-, Duo was about to say.
This is a G' rated story and rated E' game! boomed an overhead voice.
Duo asked, nervously, looking up to see where the voice came from. All the cards gasped.
My word! The queen said, very offended. That awful word! That's the penalty of death!
I only said- Duo started.
Off with his head! The queen yelled.
Alice! Don't wait for me! Duo yelled, running away, into the forest.
Find him! The queen yelled.
I will find him, Wufei said. There's no need to dispatch your cards.
Very well, then. If you think you can handle this, then go ahead. Wufei slightly bowed, then ran into the forest after Duo.
He betrayed me, Duo said, behind a huge mushroom. I can't believe it. Wufei wouldn't do that, would he?
Wufei called. Duo, where are you?
I can't come out, Duo said, determinedly. Or he'll take me to get my head removed by that fat pig.
Wufei called, stopping near the mushroom. Who am I kidding? He probably thinks I'm the biggest betrayer in the history of the world. Wufei sat in front of the mushroom. If he only knew of my plan. Suddenly, humming came from nowhere. Wufei stood, knowing who it was. Alright, where are you? You know of my fear of you. Come out, so I can face you!
Fear? What is fear? Asked the purple and pink cat, appearing on the mushroom. It's like being pushed off of a high bridge. Wufei began to back up. Wufei, the shadows draw near. Yet, you need light to see them.
Cheshire cat, Duo said, quietly. Wufei suddenly went quicker backwards.
I- I- I can't do it, Wufei said, turning away and running. The cat laughed, slowly disappearing.
Yo! Wufei! Duo yelled, running after him. Wufei stopped running. Duo caught up to him.
You saw it, didn't you?
Not really. I listened.
That's a first.
Come on, Wufei. The cat said we need to turn on some lights, somewhere, to make the shadows appear. That's what we're looking for, right? Wufei turned.
he said, with a nod. They started to walk.
Duo said, putting his arm around Wufei's shoulder. Everyone has a fear. It's what makes us human. Of course, Heero doesn't have a fear, because he's not human.
~In the Queen's Court~
The Queen of Hearts impatiently waited for his return. Finally, Wufei came back, with Duo; Duo's hands were tied behind his back.
Well, about time you came back, said the queen, impatiently.
It took me a while to find him, this time, Wufei said. This time, he won't escape.
Good. On the charges of twice attempted escape, kidnapping a person form the guilty party from a royal court and potty mouth-
Potty mouth?! Duo asked. All I said was poop! All the cards gasped. The queen even looked disgusted.
Two counts of potty mouth, I here by condemn you to a sentence of, the queen paused. Duo waited for her to say, off with his head! but instead, All of your hair being cut off.
Duo yelled, in total shock. No way! You're not touching a strand of my hair! The cards surrounded him. Duo looked desperately at Wufei, who didn't look phased by the decision. Wufei! Please, don't leave me! Don't let them cut my hair!
Bring the royal scissors! The White Rabbit called. A pair of scissors was brought out by a card. The cards grabbed Duo, and dragged him towards the card, whom was going to cut the braid.
Wufei! Wufei! Duo screamed. Wufei started to walk with the cards, watching Duo out of the corner of his eye. Duo had almost freed himself from the ropes that held his hands. Wufei suddenly turned, to face the queen.
Wufei said. Do you play croquet?
Why yes! The queen exclaimed.
Well, Duo and I are very fond of the game. So, if you can hold off this sentence for a moment, we'll play.
Fine! Set the course! The cards ran around, forgetting about Duo. Wufei went to Duo. Duo had finally freed his hands.
What are you thinking?! I can't even spell croquet! Duo whispered.
Don't worry, Wufei whispered back.
This is going to take forever!
Look at them! They're too busy getting ready for the game to even notice us! Duo looked. Sure enough, Wufei was right.
Then let's go! Duo said, grabbing Wufei's arm and practically pulling him into the bazaar room.
The shadow is close, said the familiar voice.
You again? Duo asked. The Cheshire cat was on the table.
Prepare to fight for your lives. If you're not, then too bad! The cat disappeared. Suddenly, this huge, five heads stacked on each other thing appeared.
This is the Wonderland boss? Duo asked.
Wufei yelled, as it started to move, with bowling pin-like things in its hands. It started to swing the pins at them, as they ran around the table. This isn't working, Wufei said, the sword suddenly appearing in his hands. He ran up to the thing, and tried to hit it, by jumping. It swung, and knocked Wufei into a corner.
Duo said, running to his side. Wufei slowly stood. You okay?
Wufei said, looking up at the monster, whom had cornered them.
We're gone. We weren't able to get out of the game, Duo said, putting his hand in his pocket, touching the picture. And I wasn't able to save him.
Not yet! Wufei said. Suddenly, the monster was crushed, by a familiar shoe.
Are you guys ready to go yet? Trowa asked. I can't get a good signal in here.
Yea! Trowa beat the monster! Duo said, happily dancing around. Trowa looked at Duo as if he were crazy.
What monster? Trowa asked.
It doesn't matter, Wufei said. We're ready to go. Suddenly the keyblade flew out of his hand. Whoa! Come back! Wufei ran after it. It flew right to the doorknob and a beam shot out. After the beam had faded and the keyblade dropped.
That was strange, said a normal sized Duo. Wufei picked the sword up, then noticed a part. He picked it up.
Wufei yelled. We got something for the gummi ship!
That great! Ready to be big, again?
Wufei called.
There he is! called a voice. Wufei turned. There were the cards, running towards him.
Duo! Pick me up! Quick! Wufei yelled.
Should I? Duo asked Trowa. Trowa nodded. Duo swooped his hand down, and grabbed Wufei. Are you okay in there, little guy?
Not funny, and I'm fine. Put me on the table. Duo put his hand on the table, so Wufei could jump out. Where's the bottle?
Right here, Duo said, taking the bottle out of his pocket.
Give it to me!
Duo said. Unless you say something.
That you are a baka and a weakling and Duo isn't. Wufei growled.
I'm a baka and a weakling; Duo isn't.
I can't hear you, Duo said. I am a couple of stories higher than you.
I'm a baka and a weakling, Wufei said, a bit louder.
I'M A BAKA AND A WEAKLING!!! Wufei screamed.
Duo said, giving him the bottle. Wufei regained his normal size. You heard that right, Trowa?
Trowa asked, turning to Duo.
Fine. Act like you didn't listen. You knew it was funny.
Back to the ship, Trowa said, walking away. Wufei put one of the bottles in his pocket, then hurried after them.
