Chapter 17
The Hatter kept a close eye on the opening in her tea party how dare they enter this world. How dare the Rabbit side with these humans? The ones who were responsible for this hellish prison, forced to play a game that these pathetic species wanted, since the dawn of their time they where nothing but parasites, always wanting and never satisfied with what they had.
To be honest she didn't know what her Alice wanted, sure Death to those that killed her friend, but then what? She looked at the Cat that sat upon the table, her Alice absent minded stroking its head, the animal didn't look amused one bit, and soon moved to peer into her tea cups. Where as The Caterpillar, she didn't quite know what to make of him.
He was your worst nightmare, because if one of them didn't kill his Alice, he would. The Hatter growled low in its chest whenever the demon got too close, just as her companions arrived, The March Hare and the Door Mouse. Both bowed when faced with the Hatter.
"Is this your Alice?" The Door Mouse enquired, Angie looked up and saw a boy no younger then 14, with long dark hair and bright blue eyes, he smiled sweetly, and Angie suddenly felt that nothing could ever go wrong with him around, like the younger brother she always wanted but never had.
If it wasn't for the mouse like ears and tail that curled around his leg, she was sure she'd take him home, she wasn't too keen on the Hare, he looked sulky when looking around the table, glaring at the cat on the table who smirked at him. Angie frowned, cats couldn't smirk could they?
"They can't talk either dear but this is Wonderland" the feline purred as it walked up to the stunned girl, its smile widening as it sensed the Hatters stare upon its body. "Come take a walk" the cat spoke before looking at The Hatter "I'll bring her back safely Hatter"
But before the Hatter could reply they both disappeared.
The Cat smiled as they walked the stone hallways. Of all the places Angie had visited this one she didn't know off, she noticed a few women walking around the building, more then once she had to look away, for the women wore not much clothes or nothing at all.
"In here" The cat spoke as they went into a room, dogging anymore praying eyes.
"So is this where you kidnap me and torcher me?" Angie asked feeling a slight chill in the room.
"Of coarse not dear" The cat spoke as it sat upon the cold floor, "This isn't my home, its my cell" The animal spoke "I actually live in the Forest outside of the Hatters domain"
"So are you a friend of the Hatters?"
"Friend?" The cat sniggered "oh no, there's no friends, only power, only a winner" The cat spoke. "But you, you don't belong here fake Alice" The animal purred, Angie frowned "Sure you went though the ritual like most Alices do, but your not Hatters true Alice, but Hatter knows, and Hatter will use you for its own gain. We all do."
"Why should I believe you?" The cats form altered and changed into a young woman, one of the strangest women she had ever seen. Cat ears where perched upon her hair, which twitched every so often and the cat like tail that swished from side to side.
"That's the thing, you shouldn't, but I can tell, your starting to doubt, you don't want to do this anymore, cause you know what it means once Hatter for fills your wish. Because your friend had the same problem" Angie's eyes narrowed "You believe those girls drove her to do what they did, and maybe in the end that was one of the reasons behind it" The woman shrugged
"What?" The woman smiled, the scars upon the corners of her mouth stretching grotesquely, as if she had been given a Chelsea Smile only half heartedly
"The problem is for my plan to work, you can be here with Hatter" The woman spoke, more to herself then Angie, then her eyes lit up, a smile upon her face as if she knew what to do, and how to do it. "This wont hurt" Cheshire Smiled
The Rabbit burst though the clearing, just narrowly missing a burst of flames that shot her way, using her staff to shield the attack, the man laughed as he attacked the albino girl, just as someone else appeared, blocking the attack with his Katana, the read cloak swaying in the wind.
"Jack" The Caterpillar hissed as they both entered the eternal dance. When the Red Queen appeared to face off the Door Mouse and March Hare, letting The Rabbit take care of Hatter.
"I will kill you" Hatter hissed as she raised her arm, the inky shadows swallowing the albino woman
"STOP" Angie cried as the shadows moved towards the humans with the Rabbit "You promised not to hurt them!" The Hatter glared at the teenager as Cheshire smirked at her.
"Well things have changed" And she threw them painfully back, but the shadows around The White rabbit felt crushing, who shot a bolt of lighting at Hatter who just missed the attack, but it was enough to let her go, and she fell to the floor. Both entered their own dance of blood. .
The woman laughed hysterically before missing a blow from the Rabbit. Who though her terror was leaving herself open for the attacks that rained upon her, if she didn't stop Cheshire now then…she didn't want to think of what could happen, the shadows encased the Rabbit, but as she tried to alter the time again she watched in shock as Cheshire held the shiny pocket watch in her clawed hands.
The group soon tried to help the rabbit out, even when she screamed at them not to get involved. But none of them listened to her, and where injured beyond anything they had ever felt in their life. The Rabbit screamed as she was violently thrown to the ground, if she had been human, she should have broken many bones that was for sure.
Alistair ran over to Angie, who could do nothing but watch in horror, what had she done? All because she had wanted those bitched to pay for what they had done to her best friend. She looked up at the red haired man with tears streaming down her face, her blond hair was matted with dirt and blood.
She wanted to go home.
She wanted to wake up and let this been a horrible nightmare and wake up to have her mother comfort her like she used to.
"Come on kiddo, everyone's been worried about you" He spoke kindly as he helped her up.
"I don't think so Boy"
The Rabbit yelled out to her Alice when Cheshire grabbed him and threw him to the others, chains appearing from the ground that pierced his wrists and ankles, Angie cried out as the Rabbit tried to get out of her prison the Cheshire had created, before the instrument pulled, he didn't even scream as he was sliced and ripped apart.
The body falling to the ground with a dull thump.
"I done it!" Cheshire squealed, laughing manically like a child who had just solved their first puzzle. "I killed Rabbits Alice"
"Alice?" Rabbit spoke, hot strikes of lighting danced around the slowly maddening albino as a strong wind picked up around the demon who had spent ages fighting off the madness that would enviably encase them all, "Alice?" She tried again, but received nothing from the sliced corpse, his lifeless eyes staring back at her
"Ooohh, is Rabbit goanna play with Cheshire now?" Cheshire mused "Or are you upset about your Alice leaving you?"
A burst of Lighting shot at the Cheshire who laughed as she danced out of the way, Her staff disintegrated as the sheer blood lust and powered even over whelmed Caz, who had thought nothing of the rabbit eared woman, part of her was glad she hadn't pissed off the woman, and was glad for once that the demon was on their side.
"I'll kill you" The rabbit snarled darkly as her eyes seemed to glow as she let out a scream that sent chills own the mortals being.
