Chapter 3: Of Pink Cats and Child-like Queens

The next thing I knew, I was falling.

"Sora!" I screeched and flailed as we fell down.

All Sora did was laugh at me. Jerk.

"I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die." I yelled, waving my arms around.

"Sora, stop laughing and save me!" I screamed, glaring at Sora.

"Calm down and breathe," He suggested. "Relax."

I looked down to see Sora and Donald land gently on the ground, Goofy a different story.

Sora pulled my flailing body off the air, and into his arms.

My hands encircled his neck as he gave me a goofy smile.

"See? We're alive."

"I'm still freaking out." I groaned.

There were sounds of a clock, which made us look around.

I grinned. Ah, the weird rabbit thingy.

"Oh, my fur and whiskers. I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!" He exclaimed running through us.

Sora and I looked at each other.

I look weirded out, and he looked excited.

"Mr. Rabbit!" I called.

"Oh, dear. I'm here. I'm here and I should be there!" He muttered.

"Wai—"

"I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!" He said, running faster. "oh, the queen, she'll have my head for sure!"

Without a warning, Sora ran after the rabbit, me hanging off of his arms.

Once we reached a small room, I slapped Sora's arm, which made him set me down.

He crouched down and frowned at the small door.

There was a way here… somewhere.

I looked around, seeing Sora wave me over.

I skipped forward and smiled at him. "What's up?"

"The doorknob talks." He said in a surprised voice.

I giggled. He's so cute.

I looked around once more, frowning.

I used to know which way to go right off the bat.

...What's wrong with me?

"Must you be so loud?" The doorknob asked. "You woke me up!"

"Good morning!" Goofy greeted happily.

"Good night!" the doorknob snarked. "I need a bit more sleep."

"Rude." I muttered, causing Sora to nudge me on the ribs. "Ow."

"Wait, what do we have to do to get so small?" Sora asked curiously, crouching in front of the door.

"Why don't you try that bottle over there?"

We all turned, seeing a blue bottle on top of a previously inexistent table.

"This world is so weird." I whined, walking over.

Sora walked behind me.

"Cheers!" I said, taking a gulp of the liquid in the bottle.

I closed my eyes, feeling a weird sensation take over my body.

I faced Sora with a frown. "This feels weird."

It was a shock when all I saw was a piece of his zipper.

"What the—"

"Cool!" Sora gushed, leaning down and smiling at me.

I was as tall as the length of his nose.

"Hey, Ailey!" Sora giggled, looking at me. "You're so tiny."

I rolled my eyes and pointed at the bottle.

"Do it."

Instead of passing through the, once again, sleeping door, Sora dragged us over to a small hole.

I panted, walking beside him.

"Being in an adventure is so exhausting." I whined. "To think this is just world—"

Sora held a hand in front of my face, gesturing me to be quiet.

My eyes trailed over to the scene in front of me.

The Queen of Hearts stood in a tall podium in front of a defenseless Alice.

Alice stood her ground, defending herself.

"I've done absolutely nothing wrong." She scoffed. "You may be queen, but that doesn't give you the right to be so— so mean."

"Tell 'em." I whispered, causing Sora to chuckle.

I grinned over at him, flinching when the queen suddenly shouted.

"Silence!" She screeched. "You dare defy me?"

"My beautiful ears are bleeding." I complained, rubbing my ears.

"Hey guys, we should help her out." Sora suggested, frowning.

"I agree." I nodded.

"Yeah, but—" Donald started.

"We're outsiders, so wouldn't that be muddling?"

"It's meddling, Goofy." I laughed, patting his back.

"Oh, yeah. That's against the rules."

Sora and I looked at each other.

Well, nobody can stop this cute brown haired, blue-eyed— sTOP AiLEy.

Sora tilted his head and grinned.

"The court finds the defendant guilty of charge for the crimes of assault and attempted theft of my heart!" The queen declared.

Sora whipped his head to them, gasping.

"Off with her head!"

Alice started to beg for her life.

Sora grasped my wrist, pulling me with him.

"Hold it right there!"

Everyone turned to us.

"Who are you? How dare you interfere with my court?" The queen hissed out.

"Excuse me, but we know who the real culprit is." Sora said, walking forwards.

"Uhuh, it's the heartle—" Goofy stopped, putting his hands over his mouth.

Sora stared at him before shaking his head.

"Anyway," He said. "she's not the one you were looking for."

"That's none sense." The queen hissed. "Have you any proof?"

Sora froze, blinking. "Um…"

"We'll find some." I said, looking up at the queen. "You can't expect us to just stand around and let an innocent civilian pay for a crime she didn't commit."

Sora nodded his head violently, agreeing.

"Fine then!"

Sora, Donald, Goofy and I were walking around until we reached a forest.

We we got there I started whining again.

"I'm tired. So tired."

Sora smiled at me. "Just a little more, Ails, then it's back at the ship."

I smiled up at Sora, who offered his arm out for a side-hug.

I immediately sprinted over and cuddled next to him.

He slung an arm around me, still walking.

We started to talk about anything and everything.

"So, what's one of the things you're scared of the most?" Sora asked.

"Um, cats." I said after thinking.

Sora's arm tightened around me. "Don't look."

"What do you—" I stopped, looking in front of me.

Sora held his grip, freezing in place.

"Pink cat." I squeaked out.

"Body-less, pink cat." Sora added.

I screamed, jumping on him as the head of a pink cat floated around in the air.

The cat appeared behind me, which caused me to jump in front of Sora and bury my head in his shirt.

"Make it go away!"

"I can't!" Sora panicked.

The head appeared again, this time far away, on a tree.

A headless body appeared on top of it, balancing.

"Oh god, Carnival cat." I screeched, burying my head in Sora's shirt once again.

The cat assemble itself, smiling at us.

"Who are you?" Donald asked.

"Who, indeed?" The cat asked.

"It talks!" I screamed, causing Sora to wince a bit and pull me even further away.

"Poor Alice, soon to lose her head and not even guilty of a thing." The cat cooed.

"Oh god, oh god, oh god. Sora, please." I groaned.

Sora tightened his grip on me.

"Calm down." He whispered in my ear.

"If you know who the real culprit is, tell me!" Donald raged.

"The Cheshire Cat has all the answers—" The cat smirked. "but doesn't always tell."

I whined. "Sora, make it stop."

"We need to talk to it." Sora cooed to Ailey before straightening up. "If you know who the real culprit is, tell us!"

"The answer, the culprit, and the cat all lie in the darkness."

"The culprit is obviously the heartless." I whispered to Sora, who smiled over at me.

I glanced behind me, to see the cat looking at the two of us.

I let out a small yelp, burying my head in Sora's shirt once again.

"Sora." I whined.

The cat let out a small chuckle and disappeared.

"Wait!" Sora cried out.

"They've already left the forest, I won't tell which exit." The cat said, it's voice echoing all around. "There are four pieces of evidence in all."

Sora's arm tightened it's grip around me as he looked around.

"The three are a cinch to find." The cat continued. "The fourth it tricky. Big reward if you find them all."

"Should we trust him?"

"Never trust a pink cat." I squeaked out, slowly pulling away from Sora.

"To trust or not to trust?" The cat said, appearing behind me. "I trust you'll find out."

"Sora!" I screamed, running back to him.

He welcomed me with open arms and an amused smile.

The cat disappeared once more, making me sigh in relief.

"Is it gone forever?" I muttered.

"Not forever," Sora said, rubbing my back. "but I think it is for now."

I gulped moving away from him and looking around.

"So much for cats?" Sora teased.

"Too much cat for the day." I sighed.

Sora and I stood side-by-side as we stood near a faucet.

I tapped a box with my keyblade, sighing in relief as the box opened to reveal more evidence.

"I think that's three?" I said, turning around.

I shrieked when the pink cat appeared once more.

"Sora!" I screamed, jumping to him.

Sora pushed me back, looking at the cat.

"Well, look what you've found." The cat complimented. "Nice going."

"Now, we can save Alice." Sora declared.

"Don't be so sure!" The cat said. "She may be innocent, but what about you?"

"I'm sorry?!" I said, looking at the cat from behind Sora. "We are nothing but innocent."

The cat looked over at me and smiled, making me shriek and hide behind Sora once more.

"What do you mean by that?" Sora asked, staring at the cat.

"I won't tell," the cat nodded. "but I'll give you something."

I looked at Sora, wincing as I felt a chilly breeze pass over me.

Sora looked back at me with a small smile.

When I looked back over at the faucet, the cat was gone.

When we got back to the trial, Sora walked over and talked to the queen.

I ran over to Alice and shot her a small smile.

"Hi!"

"Hello! Who are you?" Alice asked.

Sora appeared out of nowhere and slung and arm around me. "I'm Sora!"

"What's up, I'm Ailey." I smirked. "You don't look me in the eyes."

Sora shot me a shocked look, whereas Alice looked downright frightened.

"Kidding," I giggled. "but I really am Ailey."

"I'm Goofy, and that's Donald." Goofy introduced himself.

"Pleasure to meet you," Alice nodded. "though I do wish it would be under better circumstances."

"This'll be a good story when you get out, though." I laughed, looking over at Sora, who smiled reassuringly at Alice.

"I'm sorry you got mixed up in this none sense." Alice frowned at us.

"It's fine," Sora waved his hand. "we'll get you out in a second."

My head was down as I stood beside Sora, who looked determined.

Sora presented the four boxes, containing our evidence.

"Well, that certainly is a lot of evidence." The queen scoffed. "but that does not impress me."

"So, what impresses you?" I hissed at the queen.

I was ignored as she slammed her scepter on the ground.

An additional box appeared.

The five boxes merges, then separated once more.

Sora looked at me in confusion.

I just stared at the five boxes.

"Checking all five boxes would be a waste." The queen sighed dramatically.

"Excuse me?!" I burst. "Do you not know the rules of the court? I—"

"Choose one box," The queen continued, cutting me off. "I'll decide who's guilty based on that evidence."

"You little—"

Sora held out his hand, holding me back as he stared up at the queen.

"After all the trouble we went through to collect it?" Sora asked.

"You dare object? Then you will lose your head!"

I huffed and crossed my arms.

Now which one was the right one? In the game?

I think it's the third… fourth…first?

I froze, staring at the boxes.

I was forgetting things.

"Choose one box!" The queen whined.

Sora huffed, pulling me down with him.

"Which box do we choose?" Sora sighed, looking over at me.

"Um," I trailed off, looking at him. "I think…"

Sora raised an eyebrow at me as I looked over at the boxes.

Might as well guess.

"I guess the second one?"

Sora nodded, telling the nearby guard of our decision.

The box opened, and a soldier heartless popped out.

"Score!" I muttered happily, although I knew the queen would still insist on killing Alice.

"What in the world was that?"

"Your evidence." I deadpanned.

"Alice is innocent." Sora added along.

The queen looked lost before slamming her hands on the podium.

"SIlence! I am the law here!"

"She acts like such a child." I whined to Sora who huffed and agreed.

"That's why I'm the puppy, and you're the barbie."

I blinked, shaking my head.

The voice was back.

I looked over at Sora, who seemed to not hear the voice.

I pursed my lips and looked back at the queen, who was once again, throwing her tantrums.

"Article 29: Anyone who defies the queen is guilty!" The queen screeched out.

"This world so needs a better ruler." I narrowed my eyes at the queen.

"Seize them at once!"

Immediately, the podiums around use disappeared, replaced by one big tower, which caused Alice's cage to roll up.

"Well, shit." I muttered as all the guards sorrounded us.

I huffed, looking over at Sora, who nodded.

Then, the both of us summoned our keyblades.

Here we go.

A/N:

CHAPTER 3 AFTER ALMOST A YEAR.

Dear God, I procrastinate too much.

As you guys see from up above, I have changed writing styles.

Anyway, so Ailey is still hearing that voice, and she and Sora are getting close. *insert smirk emoji right here*

So, the boss battle for Wonderland is next, and It's going to be pretty short since we're just going to finish off Wonderland there.

By the way, I am going to transfer this story to my other account, which is QueenJayceOfAuradon

The link will be available in my bio, and that account will be also in my favorite author's list so that you could still find it if the link won't work.

I might be finishing Wonderland in this account, then transferring everything in my other account soon.

Just a heads-up, guys.

I LOVE YOU ALL!
