Chapter 6: The Decapitation of the Queen of Hearts

The Queen of Hearts sat on her low throne as she watched the battle before her rage on.

"Excellent. I will have Wonderland back in my grasp sooner then expected. When I do though…. When I do, those wretched people will wish that I never left power. I will put them through Hell!" the queen laughed maniacally at her evil plan. It was perfect, or so she though.

While she was off guard, Alice entered the makeshift chamber. Hatter entered from the back of the chamber as well.

"I didn't think you had a heart to laugh you majesty." Alice challenged.

"What?! Why are you here you twit? Looking for my son? My ring perhaps? You filthy oyster! Guards!" the Queen called in her nearly masculine tone. No guards appeared though. They were all fighting.

"Like they could take me." Alice retorted. "Don't you remember last time your guards tried to capture me?" Alice sure did. She still felt a pain in her left knuckle when she was doing her self defense lessons from one of her attackers.

The queen scowled. She did not want to be challenged by a pathetic oyster, especially Alice.

As their banter continued, Hatter had made his way up to behind the throne. His sword was in position at his side.

"Alice saw the brim of his hat and knew that things were about to come to a close. Everything was actually going to be okay.

"Queen, I just have one thing left to say to you." Alice smirked.

"And what would that be you whore!" the queen replied, not amused.

"Off with her head."

Before the queen could react, Hatter had cleanly chopped her head off of her broad shoulders.

The dark ruby liquid oozed down her robed sides. With one last, bloody twitch, her head rolled off the limp form and hit the floor with a thud.

The Queen of Hearts was no more, dead.

Seeing this, Hatter darted to Alice, sword thrown aside. They embraced on another before joining in a passionate kiss.

"I was so scared…for you." Alice confessed when they broke apart.

"I had weapons though. When she called for the guards… my heart stopped. I was truly petrified for you love. I though you would be…" Hatter didn't finish his thought. They kissed once more before looking out to the battlefield.

It was still, for the most part. Just some movement from the Wonderland forces. The Queen's legion of troops had disappeared, almost like magic.
