'stuffstuffstuff'= Thoughts

-The Clover Tower-

"I hereby commence the start of meeting 'What's Wrong With Alice?'. Now, I will have Boris state the issue here."

Taking the cue, the Cheshire Cat rises up from his seat with some papers in his hand.

"Alice, the Outsider, have been acting strange. The things she have done as listed are, 1) Spacing out in weird timings, 2) Being even more depressing than usual and 3) Visiting the other territories less."

Nightmare nodded at the atmosphere he built up for the meeting. Gray was impressed for once, while other than that time Nightmare actually went to hospital on his own will.

'If only he was like that during the official meetings.'

"Now, all of you are gathered here to find a solution to our problem."

Looking around the table, Gray can say that the role holders present in this meeting are worried for their dear Foreigner. Not many could retain the usual happy composure they take on. Gowland looked serious for once and Boris only had a thin line plastered on his face.

"Has no one tried asking her?", Julius asked with eyes not leaving the clock on his desk.

"You probably have an idea of her stubbornness. She ain't telling what she doesn't want to."

The room descended into silence, only to be destroyed by the kicking of the door. Now, there's probably only one Role Holder that's arrogant enough to do that. Blood Dupre, Leader of The Hatter mafia. He stride casually into the room with his second-in-command on his right and the twins on his left.

"My, my, there was a meeting about the young lady and we weren't invited? How rude."

Gowland looked ready to kill with his strained shoulders and tensed knuckles.

"That's exactly the reason why we didn't invite you!"

To his comment, Blood simply turned his head to the other side, uninterested.

"Then, how are you going to explain the lack of invitation to the Heart Castle?"

'Great, all the troublesome ones are here.', thought Nightmare.

As the roleholders sat around the table, the meeting would make adjustments.

'This is going to be a long meeting.'

~.~.~.~.~

After time periods of discussing, their conclusion was pointed to this.

Recalling her memories.

"Do you know how much Alice would have to suffer because of our actions? Recalling the memories, also means that Alice will experience every bit of the emotion she felt in those situation. No, I refuse to let this happen.", said Julius.

"Heh, Julius is quite soft-hearted despite his face.", commented Ace who received a glare.

"Clockmaker, how else do you suppose we solve the problem?", spat Blood.

Julius was at a lost of words until Peter spoke up.

"I supposedly, remember about a potion that would knock out the patient. The conscious of the patient would act as if it has fallen into a slumber."

"There, problem solved. Anymore objections?"

Julius grimly nodded as everyone promptly left to prepare their own role in the plan.

The Heart Castle will be preparing the potion.

The Hatter Mansion will set up tropes and safety plans while most role holders were in the process of recalling the memories.

The Amusement Park will distract Alice and make sure she doesn't notice a thing.

The Clover Tower will prepare for the process of Memory Recalling.

~.~.~.~.~

Memory recalling was a delicate process. It allows the users conscious to enter a person's mind. Therefore, allowing the user to 'experience' or watch what's in the person's mind, but if the user were to trespass on forbidden areas in the mind. The person's mind will be traumatized.

While the user is watching past memories, the person also experiences it in a dream-like way.

Will the potion work? Well, let's just say, nothing ever goes very smoothly.

Omake: Distraction

(Extra for the short chapter)

~.~.~.~.~

"Why do I have the feeling that you are hiding something from me?", said Alice with her eyes narrowed into a dangerous angle.

"Hahahaha, of course we're not hiding something from you. Silly Alice. Why would you think otherwise?", said Gowland while laughing awkwardly.

"No reason. Just a hunch."

But the eyes was still narrowed.

'Crap. She's on to us.'

And the spot of orange Gowland saw from the corner of his eyes, brought him hope or more specifically, a distraction.

"Look, it's Elliot."

As suspected, Alice turned to catch the sight of the Hare.

'CUTE FLUFFY BUNNY EARS.'

She turned and walked towards Elliot with gleaming eyes.

Gowland grinned happily while Boris mopped at a corner.

''Is my ears not fluffy enough?", whimpered Boris.

Fishy: That's it for the chapter! Sorry not sorry for updating so late. ｀ｨ(´∀｀∩ ) But future chapters will be around the range of 600 ~ 1200. Quite short since most will be about Alice's memory. Updates, again will not be frequent unless I get inspired to write. But I try to update monthly.
