TRAPS

nee hee hee hee hee! Alright alright. Let's hope this turns out good...

He hated suddenly waking up in strange places. The air felt weird here, wherever he was, much like the air in that place. The place where Hichigo lived.

"What an interesting specimen." mumbled a voice. He felt fingers poke and prod at his ribs. "And you say he's still human?" more painful jabs.

"Yes, Mayuri-sama" the one called Mayuri hummed, and continued poking and prodding and inspecting. He could tell his clothes were off. Which wouldn't have really mattered, they were extremely short anyway.

"Uh. I'm glad you love my body so much, but would you be so kind as to hand my clothes back!" he snapped. His arms were tied above his head, he couldn't do much more than yell.

"What an attitude. So that should me a normally functioning brain. This is exciting! Nemu you lazy bitch, hurry up and set up the research room! I told you to five minutes ago."

"Sweet Little King...caught in a spider web... should the Queen chop of their heads?" Hichigo was clearly smiling, though his anger lay deep beneath the surface. How dare they do this to his king, as if he was an animal to be caught and played with.

"You're not killing anyone." He hissed. Hichigo laughed at him, and kissed him on the cheek. This was not the time for his stupidity. He was wheeled into a bright room. This reminded him of something, the way the light shone in his eyes. Something a long long time ago, and he could barely remember.

"Quickly, is he breathing? Is he awake?" he couldn't see, the light was blinding him. He could hear voices, and smell antibiotics. He could just barely make out the shadows of faces. His knees were scrapped and stinging.

He was somewhere safe. Somewhere far away from the furry monster. He could hear 'it' laughing and cooing and taunting in his head.

"Will Nii-chan be awake soon?" a soft sad voice whispered.

"Maybe"

"What a late reaction! Why is he not responding to pain?" his eyes adjusted to the light. A masked face glared down at him.

"Alice King. I'm using my powers so you heal quickly." he shrugged, didn't really care what was happening, he just wanted to hurry up and go back home before Hatsuna thought he had been off whoring himself again. "As if Alice King doesn't enjoy doing that."

"Oh shut up"

"He's hollow right? He should be able to take this." little needles were pushed into his skin. They were attached to wires and a large beeping machine. He shivered. A switch was flicked, and jolts of electricity ran through his nervous system. He screamed in pain, but after a few moments it stopped, and only felt like cool fires in his body. "Ah, so he can take this even batter than a hollow can..."

"You should sleep, Alice king. You won't like what happens next." he felt more pain before it was all gone, melting away.

There was a bang, and some pain, and a shout. "The trial is starting, the trial is starting." He ran to the sound, entering a garden where a large crowd was gathered.

"And what happened then?" asked Hichigo, staring down his nose at Tatsuki from where he sat on a throne. Tatsuki was still her twelve year old self.

"Uh, um. Well... he captured Alice!" Tatsuki shouted, cringing at the enraged look the 'Queen of Hearts' gave her.

"Bring in the next witness." the Gryphon pointed him to the stage, smiling encouragingly. He stepped onto the witness stand.

" Hello, Alice King." Hichigo greeted. He pointed at a masked man standing beside him, wrapped up in chains. It was the man who had electrocuted him. "What did he do, aside from steal your tarts?"

"He captured me." he answered. Hichigo smiled, resting his elbow on the arm of his throne, and his chin on his fist.

"And what should we do to him?" he gave the man a peircing glare.

"Off with his head."
