Climb the Ranks

Here comes the worse part, listening to the cries while eating! If the 'food' wasn't bad enough listening to someone screaming and crying, "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH H! STOP! STOP! STOP! PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! SOMEONE HELP ME! JUST KILL ME ALREADY! DIE! DIE! DIE! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH H!" the same plead repeated a hundred times over before it just dies into yells of pain and sobbing before you can hear the heave almost unmovable 6 inches steel door with 2 inches of bullet proof glass with thick metal bars for the windows in the two doors.

The screams made it hard for Ichigo to eat, in fact he didn't touch his food at all as goes for Naruto and Gaara, even the demons that resided in the 3 boys swallowed hard at the cries and tried to tune it out as it pains them that either one of the hosts would be next and having to listen to them scream the same way.

"What do you think they are doing to her?" Naruto asked not wanted an answer; "I don't know" Gaara replied not wanting to think about it; never in Gaara's whole life did Gaara hear such a thing, when he was younger he was a cold blooded killer but he showed mercy, a lot of it by killing them in an instant that they won't feel any pain, how was that merciful? Compare to this it would be heaven! Another scream was heard, a faint one like a whisper in the wind; a male this time.

The speakers made a sound of someone turning it on,
"I was calling! The treatment was coming!
Who's next? I was next!
Strap me to a chair and fry my brains!
Cut chunks off of me! heh!
Drill through my eye and my brain! hehe!
What's next? Who knows how far Joker will go! hehehe!
Hell is more fun! Can dream but never sleep! You all die slowly!
Heh! Before you know it the reaper will have my head!
WELCOME TO YOUR WONDERLAND WHERE THE MAD HATTER AND THE JOKER RULE,
THE HATTER AND JOKER ARE COMING FOR ME! Hehehe!
YOU'LL CONVERT ME OR RID OF ME?! WHAT WILL YOU CHOOSE?!
BECAUSE SOON YOU WILL ALL KILL ME! hahahahahahahaha hehehehehehehe!
HAHAHAHAHEHEHEHAHAHEHA!" everyone heard shuffling in the background and to everyone's guessed the man was dragged off.

A silence cast over every soul in the room, the guards and nuns shifted uneasily and a cheer spread across everyone.

"The Joker awoke, the Joker awoke! The tables turn! Hear that Alice your next! Just wait till Jokers gets you!" was the chants that people yelled laughing.

"Everyone settle down! You all know the Hatter and Joker are in level 4! Even if every once in a while they do this they still locked up and a tighter restraints, don't forget Joker is mad and will kill you in an instant!" the Nuns yelled and everyone settled down with big grins on their face.

You can tell that they would run straight at The Hatter and plead to be killed, dying was no threat, it was a present and saving grace to them, Gaara, Naruto and Ichigo didn't smile and looked concerned.

They watched as the nuns wrote names down after directly looking at the three of them; they twitched in nervousness even Gaara who wouldn't make a move even if someone was kill right in front of his face.

This place even those who are harden so much you would mistake them for a statue would twitch or fidget when you spot them looking at you, it nearly drove you into madness with nervousness.

Everyone was sent off and only Ichigo, Gaara and Naruto remained as panic took over, "my, my! It looks like you guys are starting to recover a little, why don't you go to the court yard to get fresh air?" a black dressed nun asked.

Ichigo eyes widen along with the other two, only for a different reason. "You can go outside?!" Ichigo asked surprised, "yes after lunch you get to go outside for free time! It's a shame that you can't get better sooner or you would have remember, but the Cheshire Cat was there not you, all well baby steps I suppose!" she hummed.

Soon as the orange hair Shinigami relaxed a little till she started singing her words halfway through.

Naruto gently lead the boy away to the court yard, Ichigo's eyes widen so much that his eyes might have popped out when he saw a large court yard; it had a basketball court, soccer and even an AFL court.

"You thought they tortured us out here didn't you?" Naruto asked, "well yer, actually!" he admitted; "don't worry they don't, they will drag you away if they believe you need another treatment."

"What's a level 4?" the orange boy asked; "there are 4 levels, level one is when EVERYONE comes here, the perfectly healthy are kidnapped and brought here" Gaara explained.

"Once you start getting drugs you become level two, almost everyone is level two except for us three and a couple of others. Because we naturally have voices that's why we are level three" Naruto explained, "Level four is the highest you can get, Fox and I have the most potential because of our demons. Level four is for those no matter what become too dangerous and start killing, though we don't know what they would do to us there, we all know that high the level the more it hurts and everything get worse. We can't even see Hatter anymore and we guess that they are completely isolated from everyone!"

"Ya know March, you better watch your back, literally!" the white demon warned with his demonic grin.

Ichigo turned around to see nothing only to hear a childish laugh of a girl, "my curious March Hare, wise Dormouse and my cute fox why don't you join my tea party?" the women childishly laughed but completely out of sight.

"Who said that?" Ichigo yelled, "Why, my March Hare, I'm the Mad Hatter of Wonderland, didn't Cheshire warn you to watch your back? Alice is on their way, it's time for your medication and time to go to your cell!" she sung to them cheerfully.

"You truly are mad, Hatter!" the Dormouse replied to the no one who was signing to them,

"Quiet mad!" she giggled; "It's time to go back, your medication will be handed out soon!" the nurse hummed.

That was really starting to piss Ichigo off, the way they found it a game and always smiled while making everyone suffer, making Wonderland suffer. Yes Ichigo was the March Hare of Wonderland, and he was slowly slipping grasp of the real world.
