What? The end? Already? I could just cry... But you guys are probably anxious, so let's begin!
The battlefield looked like a chessboard. The carapaces took their places on the field like chess pieces, with the normal carapaces in the front and the armored warriors in the bag. The Alternian army soon came, led by the Condesce. Dualscar, the Grand Highblood, and Darkleer were behind her. Next to the Condesce was the Psionic, who was in chains. There was another woman. She had the attire of a pirate and looked like the mother of the Serkets. Beside her was a chained up Dolorosa.
Darkleer stood in the middle of the field. "Queens," he called. The Condesce and the White and Black Queens walked to him. "Present your heroes."
The White Queen motioned for us to step forward. The Condesce laughed and yelled, "Doc Scratch!" A man in an all white suit stepped forward. Instead of a face, his head was a giant cue ball. Beside him was a woman in a green shirt and skirt. Her black hair was in a bun, and had two needles holding it in place. Two ram horns protruded from her head. This was probably Aradia's mother.
Doc Scrath ripped off his jacket, revealing a green shirt and overalls. His thin arms grew, extending beyond the suit sleeves. The arms were now green, and they bulged out into ginormous muscled limbs. His hands were clawed. One leg acted the same as the arms, but the other only grew to the thigh. Blood spurted out of the deformed leg, and a golden peg appeared under it. His shirt was now in rags, as his torso had doubled in size. The cue ball head had cracks covering it, and suddenly burst, revealing a cherub head with red cheeks. One of the sharp fangs was gold. A green overcoat appeared around his shoulders.
"Lord English, attack," the Condesce said. He roared and disappeared.
"Look out!" Dave yelled. We dispersed, just as Lord English appeared behind us. I looked around for John, and found he was flying around and trying to get behind Lord English. Dave, Aradia, Damara, and Caliborn were trying to use their time abilities to trick Lord English. But he seemed to be one step ahead of them, easily dodging their attacks.
Lord English roared again, and fourteen green creatures appeared. Each had a hat with a number on it a colored similar to pool balls. One carapace female appeared. She was black, and wore a black trench coat. Her black hat had the number eight on it.
As if on cue, the Midnight Crew stepped forward with their weapons ready. They ran towards the green creatures, encouraging the other troll and carapaces to start fighting. I was still focused on Lord English, watching his movements and actions.
He fought as though he had all the time in the world. His actions were slow, but always on mark. Yet, he wasn't watching any of his attackers, just Caliborn and Calliope. It was as though he knew what everyone else would do, and was only concerned with the cherubs.
Then it hit me. He must have had time powers. And a very high rank, at that. But Caliborn and Calliope were the most powerful god tier levels at Lord of Time and Muse of Space. He was only concerned with them. They were our wild cards.
I ran towards them. "What the fuck do you want, bitch?" Caliborn said over the roar of his gun.
"He's only concerned about you! He thinks that you two are the only real challenge. Look at everyone else," I said. John and Rufioh were constantly getting knocked out of the sky. Dave, Aradia, and Damara were floating around Lord English, warping to different places in an attempt to fool him. Nepeta and Meulin repeatedly tried to pounce on him, but kept missing. Equius had tried to engage the monster, but was knocked back by the extreme force. Horrus, Eridan, Cronus, Jade and Jake were shooting at him. Everyone else was busy with the troll soldiers.
"Your right! Caliborn, we need a plan!" Calliope said. She then looked at the needles in my hand. "You will need to defend yourself. If you want to use those, just focus."
The twins ran to find cover and talk about a plan. I looked at my friends, caught in the struggle of battle. I couldn't let them fight alone. But how the hell did I use these needles? Without thinking, I floated to higher ground and pointed the needles at one of trolls fighting Kanaya. I took a deep breath and focused on the troll.
I felt a burst of energy leave the needle. The shot hit the troll, killing him instantly. Kanaya looked at me, astounded at what I had done. I looked at the needles, now understanding their full purpose.
I searched the crowd for Roxy. She was fighting the other trolls off with her ray gun while Jane stood beside her, wading the other trolls off with her fork. I floated to them and helped her shoot the trolls. "Look who fund out how to use her weapons," she said. She said it like a joke, but I could tell she was proud.
"Yes, Calliope helped me," I replied, blasting a troll.
"She's still okay?" Roxy asked.
"Yes. She and Caliborn are trying to form a plan."
"Well, we certainly need one. Look at how badly we're getting beaten," Jane said. I looked at the battlefield. Many trolls had fallen, but we were still badly outnumbered. The older trolls were fighting each other, and it seemed as though Alternia was winning. The Disciple had been killed by Darkleer, and Redglare was killed by the older Scorpio. The Dolorosa and Psionic were both being forced to fight, much against there will. The only side we had a chance in was the Midnight Crew. The fourteen green creatures were dead, and the black woman was their only cause for concern.
"Don't worry so much, Janey. It'll all be fine," Roxy said, shooting a few more trolls. Jane frowned, but didn't reply. We moved to the other heroes, helping them if they were overpowered. Eventually, I saw the twins return.
Calliope and Caliborn held hands, and they had their guns in hand. Lord English saw them and roared. This time, some sort of techno-colored rainbow shot out of his mouth, and it killed the soldiers in the sky. It was aimed for them, but they disappeared just in time.
Caliborn appeared behind Lord English and shot him a few times. Pissed, Lord English attacked the cherub. But he didn't try to make any fatal wounds. He just tried to get the cherub away.
While he was distracted, Calliope appeared behind him. She raised her pistol and fired. A white cue ball flew out. Everything seemed to move in slow motion. The cue ball hit Lord English in the head, and he roared in pain. He stumbled back, and everyone went for him. I blasted him a few times, and everyone used their best attacks. In the end, it was Vriska who killed him. She had waited until the final moment to make her move.
Everyone stared. The carapaces dropped their weapons and knelt. The trolls dropped their weapons. "What are you doin'? Attack!" The Condesce yelled.
"We fight for you no longer," a troll said. His companions stood beside him in defiance.
"Fools! You shall be executed!"
"Calm the fuck down, bitch," Meenah said, facing her mother. "Your reign is over. We are free of your tyranny. Back down, or we will krill you."
"No! I still rule you. You will obey me!"
I looked at the remaining trolls. The Dolorosa was killed, and the Scorpio troll was beside her. The Summoner was dead too, laying over the Scorpio troll. Dualscar was backing away as he realized her loss in power. The Grand Highblood still stood tall, and Darkleer stayed near the Condesce. "Your followers no longer follow you," I said.
She looked at me. "You! You disobeyed me! Darkleer, dispose of her this instant!"
Darkleer nervously took out his bow. I simply flicked my wrist, killing him with a burst of magic. Dirk moved beside me and took out his sword. "Your shit is wrecked." He lunged at the Condesce and swiftly stabbed her in the heart.
The Grand Highblood looked at us. He slowly moved forward, huge clubs in hand. Feferi threw her trident at him, which hit his chest. He looked at it, laughed, and polled it out. He threw it back at her. Gamzee caught it. Dropping it on the ground, he leaped towards his father and swung wildly and without mercy, until purple blood covered the ground. "Honk," was all he said.
Dualscar was left. "Surely, I have done no wrong. I was just a soldier following orders, nothing else. I deserve some pity," he pleaded. A blue blast hit him in the chest, killing him.
I looked back and realized that it had been Eridan who fired. "What an asshole," he muttered.
The entire battlefield erupted into cheers. "Trolls, you are now safe!" the White Queen said. "Underland is free once more!" She walked towards me. "Thank you Rose, for bringing us together. Only one thing remains."
She snapped her fingers, and the same mail carrier from before brought her a vial of purple liquid. "this will bring you too your world. You may drink it if you like." She handed it to me.
John walked to me. "You don't have to go home. Not yet, at least."
I gave him weak smile. "I would love to stay here with you, and everyone else. But I have left questions unanswered in my world. I will return one day. But I can't stay."
He put a hand to my cheek and kissed me. We broke apart and hugged, and he whispered, "Good-bye, Rose."
I went to Roxy. She hugged me. "Go back, Rosey. I'll wait for you. Just remember us, okay."
"How could I forget?" I asked, tears in my eyes. I opened the vial and drank the liquid. I felt dizzy, and suddenly I could no longer see.
Then I found myself climbing out of the rabbit hole, in the same dress as before. I stood up and wiped the dirt from me. I walked back to the party.
Everyone was talking in hushed tones. Adam saw me first. "Rose, what happened to you?"
"I fell," I answered simply.
My mother rushed to me. "Rose, you look like you've been through hell and back! What happened?"
I ignored her and walked to Adam. "Adam, you have been a good friend. But I do not wish to marry you. I'm sorry."
He shrugged. "It's okay. It wasn't my idea."
Mrs. Gerard walked up to me. "What do you mean no? Are you psychotic or just stupid.
I smiled. "I prefer to think psychologically demented." I turned to y mother. "Shall we leave, mother? I just had a lovely idea for a story."
And that, my dear friends, is the end of Rose and Wonderland. Which means that a new story will take its place. You guys voted, and the winner is (drumroll please)... Rose Through The Looking Glass! Sdurb came in second, so I'll write that after the sequel to this story. I won't upload Rose Through The Looking Glass until I type five chapters of it, so busy yourself with my other story, Prompts Via My Reviewers.
Thank you to all the people who followed, favorited, reviewed, and read this story. It means so much to me, and I love you all so much. Until next time.
Alright, I'm out.
