Chapter 3

Rei was obviously a very good pilot as he guided the Gummi Ship with perfect ease through the interdimensional space. Lee stared at Rei as if he hadn't met him before. How was he supposed to know that Rei could fly ships twice the size of an airplane? Pretty soon, they arrived to their first world and first adventure.

The holographic image of the world was shown on the computer screen. Everyone, minus Rei, stared at it in awe. It looked to be a large pink ball with magenta and light pink hearts all over it, on top was a castle made of chess pieces with card soldiers marching and a giant green heart shape garden. Below was a cottage with a twisted tree over it. Rei grinned at their shocked expressions.

"You guys ready?" He asked lightly.

They nodded dumbly. "Then let's go!" He cheered. A black window appeared behind them, Rei quickly ran through, and the others exchanged looks before following him in.

"Yikes!" Tyson yelped as he realized they were slowly falling down a rabbit hole. All along the wall was a bunch of clocks. All of different kinds.

Rei, and the others, minus a certain dragon blader landed easily on their feet. Tyson landed right on his bum. "Ow!" He yelped. Lee chuckled.

"Oh, I'm late!" Cried a tiny voice. Bryan jerked back as a white rabbit in old fashioned clothes came running by. He was looking at a large gold pocket watch.

"I'm late!" He continued to cry out. "I'm late for a very important date! Oh, the Queen will have my head for sure!" The rabbit squealed, disappearing down the hall.

"Is it my imagination, or was that rabbit talking?" Ranma squeaked. Rei shook his head. "Welcome to Wonderland. Home of the bazaar." He muttered, heading down the hall way. "Wait for us Rei!" Lee called frantically, following. They stopped at a normal size arc shape door.

Rei stopped, realizing something. "Oh, I almost forgot." The Keyblade Master turned to Yami who blinked in confusion as Rei snapped his fingers.

Much to everyone's shock, red lightning cackled all around Yami's body. "What did you do?!" Ranma raged, lifting Rei up by his throat. Rei scowled. "Take it easy Ranma!" He snapped. "All I did was teach Yami the Fire spell. Now Yami can use the same magic as I can."

Ranma blinked and he released his grip on Rei. "Oh." Was all he said. "Now that, that's out of the way, we can continue." Rei pushed the door open, revealing a second door.

Suddenly, that door flew open followed by another, revealing a tiny green door. "There's no way we can fit. It's impossible." Max insisted. Rei smiled. "Nothing is impossible in Wonderland." He told them, pushing it open. Bright light flooded the area, and when they could see, they were standing in a very weird looking room.

In front of them was a white chair with a rabbit in the back round of it, a white table sat in front of the chair. On the table were two bottles, one was blue the other red. In the upper left corner of the room was a bed that was covering a large hole in the wall. Resting in front of the bed was an old fashioned grandfather clock.

Next to the clock was two wooden chairs with an arc shape table next to it. On that table was a single book. On the left side was a chimney with a large yellow pot next to it.

It was Bryan who saw the white rabbit; now tiny, going through the very small wooden door on the other side of the room. The doorknob was golden and if it was possible, it actually had a face on it!

He walked over to it and bent down. "How did that rabbit fit through?" He asked curiously. Rei peered over his shoulder and had to bite his lips to keep from laughing. As he knew what was about to happen next.

"Do you mind?" Asked a gruff voice. Ranma stared. "I-It talked!" He stammered. "What's with all this racket? How's a doorknob supposed to get any sleep?" Continued the gruff voice.

Beady black eyes glared at them from on the doorknob.

"Er, good day?" Tyson said lamely. The doorknob yawned. "Good night. I need a bit more sleep." It grumbled. "Wait!" Kevin cried. But it was too late, the doorknob had fallen back to sleep. "Hn. How are we suppose to follow that rabbit?" Kai asked.

Rei suddenly shoved the bed into the wall, revealing the black hole that could lead them to the White Rabbit.

"What are you doing?" Bryan asked dryly as Rei picked up the blue bottle. Rei shot him a look. "What else? I'm gonna follow the White Rabbit." He answered. Rei swallowed the contents and set the bottle back down. He grimaced from the sour after taste. "Well? Nothing's happening." Tyson whined. Glittering white smoke suddenly swirled around them, causing them to cough a bit. When it cleared, all of them were standing on the top of the table, no bigger than a thumb! "This is too weird." Max mumbled. "How do we get down from here?" Mariah asked fearfully, peering over the edge. Yami grinned as he took out a card from his deck holder. "Leave that to me." He said calmly. He raised the card over his head.

"I summon the Curse of Dragon!" He yelled. The card flashed a bright yellow before a huge skeleton of a dragon appeared.

Curse of Dragon

ATK/2000

DEF/1500

Rei whistled. "I'm impressed." He mused. Yami hopped onto the dragon's back and reached out his hand.

"Hop on." He said warmly. All of them, minus Rei, climbed on. Rei shook his head. "Not for me." He answered. Yami raised an eyebrow. "Oh? How are you to get down?" He asked.

Rei grinned. "Like this." He purred.

He curled his body into a ball and he actually pushed his body into the air and landed with a liquid grace on the bottom of the floor, underneath the table. Yami had the Curse of Dragon land next to Rei and called him back. "How did-?" Tyson started. Rei smiled. "I have my ways." He teased. "Then let's keep going. Staying here gives me the creeps." Said Bryan. Rei snickered "And here I thought you Demolition Boys lived on the thrill of fear." He mocked. Bryan's pale face colored slightly. Laughing, they headed through the hole and into trouble.

They stepped out of the Bizarre Room and into a court? And running past them was that same White Rabbit. It ran past them and up to a stand high up next to the throne which they assumed was where the judge would sit.

"Here ye, here ye!" It called out. "This trial is now in session! Presenting her majesty! The Queen of Hearts!" Bryan snorted. That pudgy faced woman in the red gown was a queen?

Yeah right.

The Queen blinked her beady black eyes and glared at the so called culprit. Which was really a little blond haired girl in an old fashioned blue dress, decorated with white knee high socks and black mary-jane shoes.. She appeared to be an nineteenth century English girl.

"This trial is now in session!" The Queen growled. The girl's blue eyes grew wide.

"I'm on trial? But...but why?" The Queen's pudgy face twisted into a mask of hate. "This girl is the culprit," even her voice was harsh and cruel. "There's no doubt about it. And the reason is..." The group waited her for her words. "Because I say so, that's why!" The girl frowned.

"That's no reason!" The girl yelped. The group was silently agreeing with her.

The Queen frowned. "What do you have to say in your defense?" The girl crossed her arms. "Of course! I have done absolutely nothing wrong," she trilled.

"Just because you're queen. Doesn't give you the right to be so...so...so...mean!" The Queen's face turned red with rage. "SILENCE!" The Queen roared. The girl shivered. "You dare to defy me?!" "The court finds the defendant..guilty of all charges! For the crimes of assault and attempted theft of my heart," now that sounded very familiar.

"OFF WITH HER HEAD!!"

That did it.

Tyson scowled. "That's it!" He growled and ran forward. "Tyson!" Rei hissed. "Hold it right there!" Tyson yelled, coming out of the shadows. Grumbling, Rei followed. As did the others. "What is the meaning of this?" The Queen demanded shrilly.

"That girl is innocent!" Tyson insisted. "We know who the real culprit is!" Lee added. "It was the Heart-" Bryan grunted as Rei slammed his elbow into his chest. Furious pale blueish white eyes glared into slightly pained lilac ones.

"We're not supposed to interfere with other world affairs." Rei snarled. "What if we can find evidence that proves the girl is innocent. Would you let her go?" Yami tried, his rich voice was soothing and soon he had the Queen of Hearts wrapped around his fingers.

The Queen blinked. "Alright. If you can find evidence of Alice's innocence, bring them here. Fail, and it will be all of your heads! Report back here once you are finished." Rei sighed in irritation.

They gathered into a group. "How can we find any evidence?" Lee whispered. Rei pointed to a door that was being guarded by a card soldier. The door was giving off a weird dark vibe. "Through the Lotus forest. And thanks a lot Tyson!" Rei growled, glaring at the dragon blader who only blinked as they traveled through the door. As they did, a bunch of card soldiers threw the girl into a golden cage next to the Queen.

"What did I do?" Tyson asked, not even paying attention to his surroundings. Rei whirled around, his eerie bluish white eyes slitted with rage, resembling a very angry tiger. Ranma edged away from the furious teen uneasily.

"Tyson, there are rules we must follow. We cannot allow anyone to know we are here. All we are to do is lock the world and leave. That's it. Now thanks to you, there's gonna be trouble following us!"

Tyson looked down in guilt. Mariah squeaked in fear as a purple and pink stripped cat appeared out of nowhere and was curled up on a large tree trunk, which was to their right. "Who are you?" Yami demanded, eyeing the magical cat warily. Yes, magical. He could sense magic coursing through it.

"Who indeed?" The cat purred. "Poor Alice. Soon to loose her head, and she's not guilty of a thing." Rei remained silent. "Hey, if you know who the real culprit is, tell us!" Tyson ordered.

"The Cheshire Cat has all the answers - - but doesn't always tell. The answer is, the culprit, the cat all lie in darkness." Rei rolled his eyes. /Stupid riddles./ He grumbled. Driger chuckled.

Suddenly, the cat vanished. "Wait!" Ranma cried. "They've already left the forest. I won't tell which exit. There are four pieces of evidence in all. Three are a cinch to find. The fourth is tricky. Big reward if you find them all." Came the Cat's final call. "Should we trust him?" Yami asked suspiciously. "To trust, or not to trust? I'll trust you'll decide!" And the Cat's voice faded over the light wind.

"What did he mean that three are a cinch to find but the forth is tricky?" Gary wondered. Rei sighed.

"I know where all four are. Just leave them to me. And I'll be back shortly." He said curtly. He promptly faded from their sight. Tyson shuddered. "I'm never getting use to that trick of his." He mumbled. Ranma and Yami exchanged looks. "What can you guys tell us about him?" Yami questioned.

Lee sighed. "Rei showed up at our village ten years ago during a freaky meteor shower. Since he had no family, my grandfather adopted him into our village. He's been living there ever since. That is, until about a month before the Asian Tournament."

Tyson's eyes widen.

"That was when he left your village and came to Japan to join the Bladebreakers." Lee gave a rueful smile.

"I'm still not sure what Mr. Dickenson said to Rei to convince him to leave." Bryan was quiet before he spoke. "Then you didn't know he had a reputation before joining the Bladebreakers, did you?" He asked slowly. Lee and Tyson shook their heads. The Bladebreakers and White Tigers were curious, for they never heard about this from their neko-jin friend.

"Just before joining you, it was rumored that the one with the tiger was the fiercest of all beybladers and everyone was afraid to challenge him. Fearing they would loose their beyblades." They stared. Bryan shrugged.

"Voltaire and Boris were impressed with Rei's actions. And if this hadn't happen, Rei would probably be a prisoner of the Abbey." Lee scowled. "Well, that's never gonna happen."

"What's never gonna happen?" Asked a voice. They yelped and jumped back as a winded Rei reappeared. "Don't do that!"Mariah scolded. Rei grew pink. "Sorry." He mumbled. There was some shiny red patches of skin marking his arms and his chest held a few scratches. "What happened?" Lee asked worriedly.

Rei waved off his friend's concern. "Not worry. Just some Red Nocturne's and Shadows." At their inquiring looks, he hastily explained.

"Red Nocturne's are fire elemental Heartless. Only ice attacks weaken them." He explained before using an Elixir. The liquid not only healed his injuries, but it also fixed the rips in his clothes that were made by the Shadows. He grinned. "Not bad." He mused.

"Did you get the evidence?" Kai asked gently. Rei nodded. "Yep, and one more thing. Time for you to learn the Blizzard spell Yami." Yami bit his lip as ice blue lightning cackled around him. "There, that can do well against fire type Heartless." Yami smiled. At least he could prove a bit useful now.

Rei went up to a Heart Soldier. "Are you ready to present your evidence?" It asked gruffly. Rei nodded slightly as he, Ranma and Yami stood in the place where Alice had been standing. "Present your evidence." The Queen snapped.

Four pale pink boxes were placed in front of the pudgy woman. The boxes were covered in dark red and light pink hearts.

"That is a lot of evidence." She admitted bitterly. "However, guards!" She yelled, waving her red heart shape fan. "Bring forth my evidence." Another heart soldier came forward and dropped a fifth box.

Suddenly, all five boxes were scattered. So no one could tell which was which. "There. Pick one and we'll decide who is the culprit." Rei's eyes narrowed. "After all that trouble?!" He growled.

"Which one Rei?" Ranma whispered. Rei closed his eyes and he relaxed his body. Slowly, his right hand lifted up and he pointed to the third box. "That one." He said quietly.

"Are you sure?" Asked a soldier. "Yes." Rei mumbled. The box top flew open and a Soldier Heartless appeared in its place. Snarling, it lunged for the Queen's chest. It exploded into dust. Ranma gaped as smoke rose from Rei's outstretched hand.

"Wh-What was that?!" She demanded shrilly. "That would be a Soldier Heartless. Alice is innocent." Rei said coldly. The Queen spluttered with rage. "Silence!" She roared. "I'm the law around here! Article 29: Anyone who defies the queen is guilty!" Rei started to back up. Not good.

"CARDS! SEIZE THEM!"

The cage, containing Alice was lifted into the air and turned away from them, the garden hedges dove into the ground and a crank tower rose behind them. A Spade soldier ran up to it and began to turn the crank. Rei scowled. "We have to take out that tower to free Alice!" He hissed. "How do you know?" Bryan hissed back. Rei glared at him. "Just trust me!" He snapped.

I'm getting rid of that tower with one blow! Rei thought holding Ultima over his head. He grinned at the card soldier's confused expressions.

"See ya." He teased and pointed the Keyblade at the tower.

"FORCE!" Rei roared out.

A huge ball of pure darkness crushed the tower to the ground, causing the structure to collapse on itself. Everyone just stared in awe. Not even dust remained. Rei blushed and placed a hand on his neck, laughing nervously.

"Heh, guess I should've tone down the Graviga spell, huh?" He asked sheepishly. "You think?" Ranma asked sarcastically.

CRASH

Rei winced. For the golden cage containing Alice had just slammed down on the ground, the second the tower had crumbled. Slowly, the cage turned around revealing...nothing?! "She's gone!" Lee said in shock. Rei cursed under his breath. Some Shadows must've grabbed her during that fight. He thought in anger.

"Guards!" The Queen yelled. "Find her!" The cards scrambled, searching high and low for the poor girl. "Come on, there's nothing else we can do here." Rei said quietly. Tyson glared at his older friend.

"How can you say that Rei? Alice needs our help!" Rei whirled around, for a second his eyes took on a dangerous ruby red hue. But it was gone before anyone could blink. "Alice is no longer on this world Tyson. She's probably in one of the outer worlds." He growled. "Now, let's go." He ordered curtly.

They passed through the hole to enter the Bizarre room. The group, minus Rei, noted that the teddy bear; which had been sitting on a shelf, was sitting on a chair, there was a plant, the pot was filled to the tip with water, there was a picture hanging on the wall, and lamps were lit up. Soft warm light filled the room. Not to mention the fact that the clock was now embedded into the wall.

Rei jumped from the ground, to the giant white chair to the table. Yami had to summon the Curse of Dragon again in order to catch up to the Keymaster. "You would believe that Alice is not here, yes?" Rei whirled around to see the Cheshire Cat standing there with a huge grin on his face.

"Do you know where Alice is?" Mariah asked worriedly. "Are you prepared for the worst?" He teased. Lee frowned. "What's that supposed to mean?" He asked. "If not, too bad!" The Cheshire Cat faded from their sight.

Uneasiness filled them. "Why don't I like the sounds of this?" Tyson whimpered. Rei looked up.

"Um, we might have a problem."

Kai raised an eyebrow. "Oh? How so?"

Rei pointed upward.

"HIM!"

They looked up to see a gigantic being that had a black and red head, one piled on top of the other, a very thin body, thin legs and arms. But it was juggling some sticks.

"That's the Trickmaster." He whispered.

"Don't use any fire attacks on him."

Ranma frowned. "Why not?" Rei sighed, eyeing the huge Heartless warily. "Because it will send those juggling sticks of his ablaze."

"Leave this one to me Rei." Yami said calmly, drawing forth two cards. "I summon the Dark Magician!"

There was a warm flash of golden light as the new summon appeared. It looked like a tall man with long dark purple hair, and cold blue eyes. He wore purple armor over his arms, and legs, and a silk robe over the armor. Being gripped in his hand was a tall dark green staff with a large emerald on top of it.

Dark Magician

ATK/2500

DEF/2100

"Next, I combine him with the Book of Secret Arts!" His second card had a green back round, but the picture was that of a very old book. The Dark Magician was bathed in a dark purple light and Rei could actually feel the Dark Magician's power rise slightly.

Dark Magician

ATK/2800

DEF/2400

Rei let out a soft whistle. "Woah. Very cool. Your summon should be able to take out Trickmaster with one blast." Rei said quietly, his Scan in effect. Yami nodded.

"Alright Dark Magician," He began. "Attack with Dark Magic Attack!" The monster nodded and with a flick of his staff, sent out a massive wave of darkness, which sliced the Trickmaster in half. Rei knew his eyes were bugged out, despite them being behind the visor.

"Wow. You wiped him out with one blow." He said in awe. Yami's cheeks took on a rosy red hue. "Thanks." He said, embarrassed. Yami then called back his monster and replaced him back into his deck.

"What a racket," Grumbled a tired voice. Startled, they turned to see they had woken up the doorknob. It was glaring at them tiredly.

"How's a doorknob to get any sleep?" The doorknob yawned again, and much to their amazement, the Keyblade lifted on its own, and sent out a thin beam of blue energy into the keyhole of the doorknob. Tiny golden stars twirled around the tip until the light faded.

"What just happened?" Bryan asked slowly.

"That was the Keyblade locking this world. The Heartless won't threaten it any longer." Rei explained. "Oh." Was all they said. Suddenly, a tiny red object dropped out.

"A Gummi!" Rei exclaimed.

"I guess the next world then?" Lee asked. Rei nodded. "Hope ya guys are ready for a battle." Rei teased.

Next stop:

Olympus Coliseum.

Familiar villains were watching Rei and his friends. "So the brat has picked up two more." Grumbled a thick British voice. "So it would seem." Purred an evil female voice. "He's stopping on your turf next Hades. This time, don't fail." The voice hissed.

Hades, Lord of the Underworld, smirked and brushed back his flaming blue hair. "Don't worry. The brat won't know what hit him."


Seems the Generals have a major plan for our heros. Wonder what it could be?
