Hi Hi, I'm back again! YAY! -super happy, starts to dance all around the room-
Man, I'm really happy I got to the fifth chapter out -screams with joy internally-
Trough I don't now if I can be that much like flash, because school is REEAAALYYY difficult, and, - yay - I'm trying to learn japanese, I mean, I'm just trying, because I don't see any progress - sigh-, but at least I know some words, like AISHITERU(I love you), yeah, that was for you guys that are reading my story, and for food(I love food) -giggles-. Anyway, I get a weird feeling that I will accomplish my intern task of ending the story before july(I pray that it works!). Anyway, I'm thinking of others stories, and maybe I will do one in portuguese(because I'm from Brazil, you know ¬¬), but I'm not really sure about that...(starts thinking....)
Well, anyway, Hope you like it *.*
Chapter 5
They all were waiting for Peter to talk, but he was just drinking the tea and eating some pieces of the cake, then Dee said:
-Say the thing already, Peter! - and Dum continued:
-You're killing us with the suspense! - Peter looked at them, sighed and said:
-Alright, alright. Alice, do you have at least a idea of why did I bought you here? - Alice was quiet for a little while and then said:
-Not really. I mean, I know there is a why, but I don't even imagine what it could be. - Peter smiled, and said:
-Then et me say something first. You will need a lot of courage and force.
Alice nodded, telling Peter to continue, then he said:
-Alice, I have called you here because we in Wonderland, or should I say, Wonderland needs you. - Alice asked, with a calm expression:
-And you need me for what, exactly? - Peter sighed and said:
-We need you to save us. - Peter, Wing, Mark, Dee and Dum were looking at Alice to see what was going to be her reaction, but she continued calm, and after thinking for a while she said:
-And what must I do to save you?
They all were shocked that Alice accepted it so easily, Peter trough -"How come she's like this?", Wing was thinking -"Alice is really interesting, she may be just as crazy as I am!", Mark trough -"Alice is really brave, she's got my respect.", Dee and Dum trough the same thing, eve having separated minds -"Wow, Alice is really cool!" and Rex trough, separated as he was sleeping in Alice's lap -"Twinkle, twinkle...". Alice sighed and said:
-So... I asked you a question. - Peter blinked and said, stammering:
-We...well, that is, you must help us. - Alice sighed again, and said, with a bored expression:
-Yeah, that I know, but with what? - then Dee said:
-You must! - Alice asked:
-I must what?
And Dum continued:
-Wake the White Queen! - Alice got a "Oh!" expression, and asked:
-Why must I wake her? - and then Wing said:
-Because she is Wonderland! - Alice was confused, and asked, while she brushed Rex head:
-What do you mean? - and Mark answered:
-She is the ruler of Wonderland, and because of that, she is Wonderland, is she's well, Wonderland's well, if she's not, then Wonderland's not too. - and Alice asked, starting to understand:
-That means wonderland is sleeping? - Peter sighed and said:
-Not exactly, it's disappearing.
Alice got a "What?" expression and turned her head a little to the side, then Peter said:
-There's someone that can explain better to you, do you mind if I take you there? - Alice was smiling, and thinking -"Well, finally they are going to tell me everything!", and she said:
-Well, let's go then, what are you waiting? - and Peter said:
-Nothing at all. Let's go then. - but before he could get up, a voice could be heard.
-No one is going to introduce me to her?
Alice was a little surprised, and trough -"What now?", then she saw that the others weren't surprised at all, so she waited, then Peter said:
-Appear first, then I will introduce you. - and to Alice's surprise, a young boy jumped off of a tree that was nearby, he jumped in the table, and stood there, he looked like he was the same age as Alice, he had purple short hair, golden cattish eyes, a really pretty face and purple cat ears and a lilac and purple stripped tail, he was wearing a soldier purple boot, a stripped sock in the same color as his tail, a black shorts with purple details in skull forms, a purple sleeveless T-shirt and a short black jacket tied in his waist, a black glove in which his fingers appeared and he had a black collar and a purple earring in the form of a fish skull, he was smirking, and then he looked to Peter, that said:
-Alice, this is Boris.
Alice looked at the boy, he threw a disgusted look to Peter and said:
-Well, that was a disinterested, without animation and ridiculous introduction. - Peter sighed and said:
-Then why don't you introduce yourself? - and the cat man said, with a evil smirk:
-Yeah, thats exactly what I'm going to do. - then he tuned to Alice and said:
-Hi, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Boriska Tails, the great, beautiful, smart and only Cheshire Cat of Wonderland, but you can call me Boris. And who are you, doll?
Alice sighed, she didn't like people like him and trough she should teach him a lesson, then she said, with a evil smile:
-It's a pleasure to meet you too, Boris. I' am Alice Lidell, but you can call me Alice, kitty. - Dee, Dum, Wing, Mark and Peter started to laugh, and Boris made a dreadful expression, that could kill someone, then he said, opening a smile that almost touched the end of his face:
-Oh well, a dangerous one, hum. Now tell me, did you ever see a kitty smile? - spat the word kitty with disgust, and trough -"Now I got you, doll.", and because of that he was utterly shocked when Alice said, calmly and truthfully:
-Yeah, I already saw. - all of them were shocked, and the twins said together:
-Really? Cool! - and Wing said, with loads of curiosity:
-Can you tell me where you saw this? - then Alice said:
-Of course it was in my world.
Boris continued shocked, he trough -"How can that be? I'm supposed to be the only laughing cat of all the worlds!", then Mark suddenly said:
-Well, and who was the cat? - Alice said:
-It was my cat, Black Sheep. Peter saw him. - and Peter said:
-Oh! Yes, i remember him. - Boris asked:
-And did he smile? - Peter said reluctant:
-Not that I remember. - then all looked to Alice, and Boris said:
-Well, what do you got to say now, dear Alice?
Alice looked disinterested, and said in a bored tone:
-Is there anything to say? - Boris got angry and exploded:
-Of course there is! You lied about your cat! - and Alice smiled and said:
-Not really. - Boris was going to yell, but then he breathed deeply, sat on the table with his legs crossed, and said, observing Alice curiously and warily:
-But Peter said he didn't smile. - Alice smiled, she trough -"Well, now he is a little more modest!", then she stretched her arm and brushed Boris close to the ears, he was surprised at first, but then he began to purr, then she stopped, and stared at him, Boris blushed and said:
-I won't be bribed!
All the others were seeing the scene with a lot of shock, they never had seen Boris like that, and the were amazed at Alice, then she said:
-You see, I don't know how it's here, but in my world, normal people don't go smiling at anyone, principally strangers. - Dee, Dum, Wing, Peter, Mark and Boris were all with a "Ah, now I understand!" expression, and Wing said:
-Well, I really would like to see that! - and Boris said, getting up:
-Yeah, me too. A comrade in the world! - his eyes were shining and Alice laughed, Peter looked at her and put his thumb up on approval. Boris started to walk, still up in the table, to Alice's direction, then he crouched, got close to Rex ears and murmured:
-Meow. - Rex woke up immediately and looked really scared, then he jumped off of Alice's lap and got under the table.
Alice just looked at all of them with a cold expression, they all were laughing and saying things about how Rex was a coward, she trough -"Well, that was cruel and disgusting. I can't believe even Peter is laughing at poor Rex". As if he was being called, Peter stopped laughing and asked, smiling, to Alice:
-Hey, Alice, is everything alright? - with that sudden pause to the laughs, all the others looked to Alice and realized that she was not laughing, and that she had a really cold expression, really different from the faces she was making was a minute of silence and then Alice smiled and Peter trough -"Oh, so everything is alright.", and because of that he was surprised when Alice said:
-To tell you the truth, no, I'm not alright.
They all were surprised and Dee asked:
-What's wrong? - and Dum said:
-Are you sick? - Wing leaned a little to the front and asked:
-Do you need something? - then Mark added:
-Wanna go to the hospital? - and Boris said, blushing and turning his face alway:
-Maybe she wants to rest, after all, it was a long trip. - then Alice said:
-Well, it's not all that, but yes, I really want to rest, thanks for your concern.
They all were confused, and Boris leaned to Alice, touching his forehead in her, what made her blush a little, and then he asked:
-Then why are you making that face? - Alice pushed Boris face away and said, holding the two sides of his cheek:
-Because of your stupid jokes. - then she let go of him and looked at the others, one by one and said:
-And because of your laughs of little Rex. - they understood the situation and Alice sighed, before Peter could say anything she said:
-It's not that I'm angry. It's just that I really hate those kind of jokes.
The twins had a guilty look on their faces, as did the others, and Wing said:
-Wow, we're really sorry Alice. We didn't know that it would turn out like this. - and Mark said to Boris:
-Hurry you stupid cat! Apologize to Alice! - Boris was going to protest, then he stopped, looked to Alice and was starting to say sorry, but Alice stopped him, got up and said:
-It's alright. What was done is done and there's no turning back. Just please tell me of a place where I can rest. - then she yawned and looked at Wing, he said:
-Oh, okay. Rex can take you. - then he knocked on the table and said:
-Rex, please take Alice to the guest room in the house.
From under the table Rex got out again, he glanced at Boris and ran to Alice, hugging her, he was shaking, she patted him and said:
-Hey, it's alright little darling. See, no one will hurt you. - R ex looked at her, then he looked at all the people that were on the table, he smiled at Alice, and then took her hand, taking her to the other side of the garden, but before going, Alice turned around, looked at everyone and said:
-Well, I will go now. Thank you everyone for today. - then she bowed and followed Rex, without knowing where he was taking her, but having the sensation that she was already in a dream.
