Ok, this is the yellow ALICE chapter. I got writers block halfway through so it's a little late and a little weird at the end. Sorry! One chapter left!

The fourth ALICE was not just one person, but two. The two were siblings, an older brother and a younger sister both decked out in different outfits with black caps with skulls. The little girl, Rhyme, had a yellow shirt with a skull and white shorts while the older brother, Beat, wore a white vest-type shirt and shorts with chains. They had already gotten their ALICE marks without their knowledge, two half hearts on each of their hands so that when their hands were clasped together the heart was complete. They had barrelled headfirst into wonderland and hadn't even bothered to ask why a child had sent them there.

The dream had been happy that they didn't even ask questions, but he was rather sad that his new friends didn't even say hello. But he was fine with it, they would be good friends. They were about his age and they looked like the kind of children who liked having fun. It was exactly who the dream had envisioned when he had thought of the two children. He smiled as he walked away from the scene in front of him.

The siblings sat under a tree they had found in a forest for shade. They sat beside a patch of red roses as they sipped from full tea cups which had been left on an old wooden table covered in an old ratty table cloth that looked like it used to be purple, red and blue in colour with yellow trimmings and bows.

The smarter younger sister sipped from her cup daintily while she watched her brother munch on a scone he had found on the table. She took in her surroundings for a minute before she noticed a small card on the table. It was a tiny playing card with a heart on it.

"Beat! Look!" she said as she lifted the card up and flipped it over. On the reverse side of the card there was a message which said it invited the owner of this card to the palace for tea.

"Yo, Rhyme! We should go to the palace!" Beat said as he pumped a fist in the air. Rhyme looked at the card again for a minute before she looked at Beat with hesitance.

"I'm not sure Beat… I think it was maybe addressed to the people who were on the table before us. We should leave the card here for them," the girl concluded as she drank the remains of her tea and stood up.

"But Rhyme! We should take the card and visit the palace! The queen might have some curry like Mom makes," the taller of the two said. He licked his lips at the thought as he stood up from his chair like his sister had done a minute ago.

"We should be going Beat. If you want, you can bring the card and we will visit the palace if we see it," the girl said. It was a good idea to just wander instead of look because if they looked they would probably get lost.

So on the pair went; the travelled slowly across wonderland and the dream watched their every step as if they were just curious animals sniffing out their new home. "They'll be happy in wonderland," the dream said to himself as he smiled. He was happy to have new friends and someone who might stay in his world for longer than the other ALICE's did.

Of course, that had to change. After a week of trailing around wonderland, the two children found a nice cottage in the woods where they decided they could live. They had travelled through some completely different parts of the wonderland. They had been through the outskirts of a thriving green world on a yellow boat where they played dress up and pretended to be from time gone by and wore old outdated heavy clothed while Rhyme twirled a lacy parasol while she giggled happily.

They had dumped the clothes as soon as the boat had hit grass and then walked until they found themselves in the middle of an empty town square. The people all hummed a similar tune while moving around in groups. They stopped when they saw what looked like a memorial; a blue and red painted wall and dead red stained roses lying in a heap next to it.

Lastly they walked through the forest they were in now. Once or twice they had come across a river of red. The first time they just looked at each other and shuddered but after that they tried to ignore the river altogether. As the two walked they couldn't help but feel like they were being followed. The passed the feeling off as an owl and kept walking until they came to the pretty little clearing the cottage was located in.

The small thatched cottage was empty of life but filled with furniture that was covered in dust and spiders webs. The two didn't mind the mess, it was a challenge they could work on to clean up. They enjoyed the challenge of cleaning so much it only took them a few days to complete the endless task. One day, while they were cleaning, Beat went out to gather wood for the fire and was knocked over by an invisible force.

"BWAHHH!" he shouted as someone came out of the bushes. Beat sow a boy about his age covered in blood with red eyes. Under his eyes Beat saw an ALICE mark of a club. It was red.

"Oh. A young boy," the assumed ALICE said as he placed a hand on his chin and looked at the boy with a smirk. He looked at the boy and noticed that on the hand that was pressed against the floor he could see half an ALICE mark. The red ALICE grinned wider as he came up with a cunning plan to get to the two new ALICE. I was the first ALICE, and therefore I should be the only ALICE! He thought as he looked at the boy. Without Beat knowing, the red ALICE slipped into acting. His face dropped suddenly as he sighed in sadness.

"I was actually looking for a girl or at least someone who can cook, I haven't eaten since I got lost in this forest," the twisted boy said.

"Hey yo! My sister is at home right now cooking curry! You can come back with me after I get the wood and get some," Beat said as he stood up. He picked up a few logs he had seen around as well as some kindling and smaller twigs before he looked back to the other boy. "So… er… what's ya name?" he asked the silver haired male.

"Joshua," the boy said with a smile. "The Red ALICE" he added with a small shrug as he followed Beat back to the small cottage that had been pointed out to him.

From his spot watching, the dream looked annoyed. "How did he get out!" he shouted to nobody in particular. He growled in frustration as he made his way to the steel vine cage of the ALICE only to find that it had been ripped apart. He didn't understand how or why but the vines wept like they were made of plant matter. The dream couldn't understand it, but he still ran back to the house of the two ALICE's of heart.

When he arrived he hoped to find them still alive but was mistaken as he saw the two children sitting at their table in their cottage with their eyes staring blankly ahead and a bullet hole in each of their foreheads.

-What happened while the dream was gone-

"Beat… who's this?" the younger sister asked as she pulled some food out of the small oven they had in the cottage. She had made curry for her brother because it was his favourite.

"this is Joshua, Joshua this is Rhyme," the other male said with a smile. Joshua giggled and held out a hand to shake Rhyme's.

"Pleasure," he said as he pulled the girl's hand up to kiss. Rhyme wasn't fooled like Joshua thought she would be, she just motioned for the boy's to sit down at the table to be served.

"So Joshua, any reason you were out in the woods on your own?" Beat asked as he tried to start a conversation. The other boy just giggled for a second before pulling a gun out of his pocket. In the distance, Rhyme screamed and Beat let out a 'Bwaaahhhh!' noise.

"I was trapped by a boy but my prison fell apart so here I am," he giggled. "I wanted to take revenge on him by killing all the people in his dream and all his ALICE children," he paused almost in thought before he pulled the trigger sending a bullet through Beat's skull so that it bounced off the wall on the other side of the room due to the short distance shot. A large gaping hole sat in the middle of the boy's forehead and his sister screamed again

"I guess, you two can be the first…" the gun was suddenly trained on Rhyme. The younger sister shivered in fear but she couldn't do anything about her fear.

As the red ALICE moved forward, he started to sing while he loaded his gun

"Yonbanme ARISU wa futaho no ko.

Koughkishin kara, fushigi no kuni.

Ironna tobira o kugurinukete.

Tsuisakki yatte kita bakari.

Ko no tsuyoi ane to

Kashikoi otouto

Ichiban ARISU ni chikatta kedo.."

Bang!

A body hit the floor and the red ALICE just laughed and carried on singing.

"Futari no yume wa, semanai mama.

Fushigi no kuni o samayotta."

-end-

"HeeHee, I'm so glad I found my gun in the town square by the monument," the red ALICE giggled as he walked out from behind a door. "Oh, hello dream. I'll bet you didn't expect to see me. I was your first ALICE. Why did you feel the need to make another?" he asked as he threw the blood splattered gun down on the table.

All of a sudden the dream felt sheepish and he didn't really know how to fight the red ALICE. He had been outmatched by one of his own creations.

The dream began to feel dizzy and soon fell down onto his behind. The red ALICE started to walk closer to him with a giggle. The red ALICE's form began to change, he grew taller and older and the cottage disappeared behind them and was replaced by a large circus tent.

"Remember Hiro-chan, I will always reign supreme in your dreams, for I am the one who owns you," the figure said before everything faded to black in the dream's vision.

What was the red ALICE was all that was left from the dream's attempts at friends. He turned around and plucked a yellow rose from the vase on the children's table

What have I done to the dream? All the ALICE's are dead except for the red one so why is the dream suddenly so scared? Find out in the last chapter!
