The final chapter. Enjoy.
Warnings: Violence and Sex and possibly a lot of mistakes.
How many times had he walked through the same paths? So many times, and now they looked so different and the feeling so was bizarre he thought that maybe he was not in Wonderland anymore, maybe he was in another world all along, but no, this was Wonderland. He was home, the place he loved and had come to depend on, his Wonderland and his madness. This place, this demented place was created out of the madness of people.
The Queen was the first one to be born and the Queen created all of them, all of them were created from the same madness the Queen was able to create around him.
Now Wonderland was not the same, it was opaque, old and disgusting. The bright colors were gone and the magic behind the enchanted forests were gone and it was his entire fault, all of it. He traded the place he loved in order to archive what he wished to hold and to have, so there was no regret, no, there was no hesitation.
Emerald eyes were held high as he stared at the back of Alice, he kept walking behind him, letting his feet drag him along with the rest of the group. Alfred was smiling, his bright blue eyes filled with the desire of destruction, the destruction he was going to get once he killed the Queen. The rest of the group was now nothing but his pawns, and that was no different from before. Little Alice, who used to be invisible became so bright and content, so wanted by everyone in Wonderland that everyone forgot about the Queen, the creation the Queen of Hearts created for his people was stealing all the love she so desired.
Arthur knew this, he knew this because the Queen told him so, because the Queen broke down in front of him, crying and struggling his own hysteria and loneliness. Nobody even knew how he looked like, nobody bother to talk to him or even attempt to reach him, nobody. It was because the Queen of Hearts was madness and madness in Wonderland would kill you, so who would want to drink poison willingly? Nobody, except one person, only one person in Wonderland loved madness and enjoyed being mad; The Mad Hatter, he was capable of feeding from madness itself, he was capable of taking it all in and turning into his meal, but the Hatter could only be with one person and that person was Alice, because Alice was the only one that could keep him from dying…but it was a lie, Arthur was incapable of holding his madness like the rest of Wonderland. He was born to be mad and die from madness.
So now, now the Hatter was walking behind Alice, letting the blue eyed witch guide them to the castle to destroy the Queen, so the source of madness was killed and then Wonderland would be just what it used to be under Alice's rule.
"You are awfully quiet Hatter." The Caterpillar commented with a bored tone.
"The Hatter is tired, so tired. I think my head may fall off from how tired I am." The sandy blond answered with a smile and turned his head away to stare down at the ground.
"I was with him last night, that's why he is so tired." Alice added with a smug little smile and the conversation ended. Dum and Dee giggled from behind and the March Hare gently elbowed them to shut them up.
The castle was coming into view and the Hatter swallowed heavily. It would work, it would for sure work, or else he was going to have to go through the same pain again and everything he had done and sacrificed would be useless. He could hear the noises of excitement from the twins and then the two charged. Dum and Dee were the ones to break down the door of the castle and as soon as the wooden doors fell down roses' roots spat out from within the door. The roots squirmed and then stretched reaching for the twins that were giggling and joining hands as their scythes easily cut down the roots and thorns.
Dum smirked and the scythe in his hands easily moved around his body as he cut the roots until a path was clear. He looked different, more confident an arrogant, his green eyes were half lidded and his weapon was easily moving in his hands unlike before. The pale-green eyed male was skillfully using his weapon instead of clumsily and roughly. With a small chuckle he took a hold of his sister's hand and the two walked along the path together their scythes being held high and proud.
Dee sighed softly and she easily swung her scythe to get rid of some roots that were still struggling to attack. "The Queen is weak, so weak. He is using up all of his powers to unite the worlds, it is going to be easy to kill him!" She almost purred and glanced at her brother before squeezing their joining hands a little bit.
"Yes, yes, it is going to be easy, easy!" Dum snickered and glanced back at the group that was now following them.
The March Hare tilted his head, his brow emotionless eyes staring at the hallway before he turned to walk across the wall and then the ceiling. The Rabbit smirked when more roots came crawling out from with the ground and he quickly moved the sword in his hand to cut through them though this time roses began to bloom and the petals from the roses were blown away by the wind. The young male clicked his tongue at the sharp petals and easily dodged by jumping from the ceiling to the walls and then the floor. He kept moving, running across the hall and tearing apart the roses until they couldn't harm any of them.
"Too easy, far too easy." The brown haired male mumbled, his bored eyes staring down at the petals on the ground as his feet landed on the floor with flawless perfectly.
"He is pathetic, what do you expect." Alice snickered and he reached for the door that was now in front of them. He licked his lips and pushed the door open and blades quickly were thrown in his direction but they were easily reflected by transparent chains that were dancing around Alfred's body.
The throne room was a wreck. The carpet was torn and dirty with mud and the once white walls were now disgusting and were covered on blood. The beautiful marvel statues were broken and hundreds of different corpses were tossed uncaringly against the sides of the room. The bodies were all wearing a set of white and red armor and their heads were missing, letting the blood pool down below their fallen form.
On the throne the Queen was sitting. He was panting and his messy hair was covering half of his face. The violet eyed male was holding onto the throne, digging his nails against the chair as sweat ran down his forehead. He looked tired and worn out, still he stood up and walked down the steps of his throne. Pride pouring out of his form.
"Imprudent bastards, walking into my castle like this, after I was the one that gave you birth. I was the one that kept wonderland in balance for you and now you betray me." The Queen chuckled and brushed his hair off his face before fixing his glasses and glaring at the group.
Alice snickered, crossing his arms over his chest with a smirk on his lips. "But you were the one that broke the balance, you mislead them all into believing that madness was what they needed but it wasn't true. The only one that needs madness like a drug is our dear little Hatter," The sunny blond smiled and yanked on the Hatter's arm until he was standing in front of him. "and you know, and that's why you are doing this. Not because of people in Wonderland but because of your own selfishness."
The Queen narrowed his eyes, his fists shaking on either side of his body. "So what if I did it because I wanted something? All I have done is to please my people and nothing else, and what did I get in return? Nothing! No recognition no nothing! Instead I have to put a mask so they hate me, so they despise me and won't get near me so they won't die!" The violet eyed teen shook, his lips rubbing together in anger as the ground began to shake and slowly the marvel floor began to break, letting small roses' roots crawl out.
Alice just smiled and tilted his head. "If you hate your life so much, then just die." The azure eyes turned a cold color. "Because we don't need you, all they need is me. So go ahead and die, it is your turn to be invisible." And the sunny blond laughed.
Dum and Dee giggled along with Alice, the scythes in their hands ready to attack and then the roots finally shot out the twins moved and easily cut through the weak plants. The scythes moved along with each other in a symphony like state. The two twins snickered and threw their scythes against the roots, cutting them all into pieces before running to their weapons as more roots quickly crawled over the floor to try to get them.
Alfred took his chance to run towards the Queen but the other just glared and threw a rose towards the sunny blond, making the rose shoot its sharp petals against Alice. The petals moved towards their target, circling Alfred and moving around him until they would see an opening to cut through. The thorns of the roses soon joined in and quickly cut through the tender flesh until a chain reflected the sharp objects and threw them against the floor.
Alice grinned and ran towards the Queen and once he was in reach of the other one of the chains wrapped around Matthew's leg, pulling and yanking the violet-eyed male against the ground before roughly moving him around and throwing him against one of the decorating pillars in the room.
The Queen whimpered but quickly got to his feet. Blood was slowly running down the teen's face, leaving a small trail on the side of his face and neck.
"Are you really willing to fight? Why are you still doing this? The Hatter hates you, he said it himself." Alfred snickered and launched towards the Queen. One of his chains wrapped around the other's waist, lifting him up and throwing his body against the wall next to the throne. "You are weak from wasting all of your energy in uniting the worlds and nobody is going to help you, nobody is willing to help you. You are alone dear Queen."
Matthew weakly got to his knees and spat out blood. He lifted his head, his prideful eyes staring back at Alice before he glanced over to the side to stare at the Hatter that was keeping his eyes on the floor. "I'm not doing this for me; I'm doing it for the happiness of the person that I care about. I don't care if you believe that it's pathetic. I am doing it for him." The Queen bit down on his bottom lip and wiped the blood off of his mouth.
The forger agent chuckled and glanced back at the hatter before walking over to where the smaller male was standing and with a smile he wrapped one of his arms around him. "But he hates you and loves me." Alice said in a childish tone as he lifted the Hatter's chin to force him to watch the scene in front of him.
"I don't care."
Alice's smile fell and he narrowed his eyes.
"I don't care, because as long as he's happy and his world is one where he can't die then I'll be fine, because he made my loneliness disappear and I'm thankful for that…so as long as this world is better for him then I don't care." The violet eyed male smiled a kind smile before coughing up more blood. The Queen had no time to react when a chain pierced through his stomach and pulled him forward and against the floor head first. Everything went still when a nasty crunching noise as heard and blood began to pool around the Queen.
Alfred smiled and he lazily walked over to where the body was, he nudged the Queen with his foot and when he didn't move his smile just grew wider.
"Are you going to eat him now?" The Hatter asked, his eyes finally staring at the sunny blond that was standing next to the Queen. "Are you going to destroy him and get rid of him?" And Arthur smiled, his lips were twitching as he took a step forward near the two. "Make him disappear."
Alice glanced at the corpse on the floor and then the Hatter, a smile slowly tugged across his lips as his eyes hid a glint behind them. "Yeah, I supposed that would be a good idea, after all he can't die out of madness and the only way to kill him is to eat him up uh?" The sunny blond sighed softly and ignored how the hatter was getting closer and closer as his chains moved around the Queen's body. "To devour him until his whole being is nothing but a mere memory inside of me." The chains made a move to wrap around Matthew but before they did they quickly turned and moved towards the Hatter instead. The long weapon wrapped around the Hatter's form, tightly keeping him in place.
"And you would love that, wouldn't you?" Alfred giggled and turned around, his attention now on the Hatter that was staring at him with wide eyes. "You would love for his memories to be inside me right?" The former agent moved across the rug until he was standing in front of the green eyed male and his hand was holding his chin. "Because that means the real Queen would show himself, because that means I would disappear. You think I wouldn't notice? That this is not my blank and my blank is now on the floor on a puddle of blood."
Arthur narrowed his eyes and then glared, his forest green eyes slowly turning an emerald color before he laughed softly and shook his head. "Alice is so smart, so smart, but if he doesn't eat Matthew then I'm going to have to eat you both and do everything again, and again, and again until I get it right!" The grin on his lips grew wider and another Hatter appeared next to him. The second hatter broke the chains and ran towards Alice a dagger in his hand as he attacked the blue eyed male.
Dum and Dee growled softly and quickly ran towards the Hatter, their scythes getting ready to attack except the March Hare got in front of them and smirked. "Don't run with sharp things." And with that being said he attacked the twins, his sword and quick moves easily overwhelming the twins and keeping their attention. "This fight has nothing to do with you two, it is in between them. I'll keep you busy instead."
The Caterpillar narrowed his eyes and he clenched his fists so hard that the pipe in his hand broke in half. "Bastard rabbit." With a growl he ran towards the group, his eyes glaring daggers at the March Hare that was easily forcing the twins to back away from the Hatter and Alice. The Asian male was just about to attach when a figure appeared in front of him and punched him on the stomach before kicking him across the room.
Ivan smiled and reappeared in front of the Caterpillar his violet eyes glowing as fog crawled out from within. "Like the rabbit said, you shouldn't interrupt, this is in between them. You and the rest of Wonderland are nothing but intruders and have in no importance in this. Instead I'll amuse you dear Caterpillar." The bigger male snickered and rolled his head over his shoulders as one of his fists came down, crashing against the other's face.
Alice glared and clicked his tongue as he watched his little group being cornered and attacked. "I should have guessed that damn rabbit was not going to be on my side, he was always loyal to you and was your friend." Blue eyes narrowed dangerously and turned their attention towards the Hatter. "I figured he realized that you were nothing but a worthless bitch but that didn't happen."
The Hatter didn't say a word instead he glared back at Alice and then another Hatter appeared next to him and then another one. The three copies were now standing around the real Hatter, their sharp weapons moving in their hands with the anxiety of attacking. "You are the one that doesn't belong here. Wonderland was fine without you, Wonderland was better without you. It was a mistake for you to exist." The copies took this as a clue and attacked.
Alfred growled down in his throat and his blue began to glow as a white aura appeared around him and he smirked. "You keep forgetting that this blank, is not my own but still has the powers of the person that it belongs to." With a soft snicker Alice snapped his fingers and the ground tore appear making roses' roots crawl out and attack the Hatters. The roots quickly wrapped around the copies and dug their sharp thorns against the soft flesh before spinning and tearing apart the bodies, making legs, arms and different body parts fall heavily against the ground.
"H-how can you…how can you use his powers?" The Hatter swallowed heavily and another two copies appeared next to him, this time it was the Hatter that was missing and arm and the child.
"How can I not? I know what you did Hatter, Matthew didn't so he couldn't figure it out but I don't blame him, the memories my blank received were the memories of an idiotic moron." Alice smiled and flicked his wrists making the roots bloom roses and soon petals were flying everyone, filling the room before attacking the two copies. The petals cut through the skin, drawing out blood until flesh was being ripped off and the copies turned into dust and disappeared. "You can't fight against the powers of the Queen, that is impossible my dear Hatter."
Alfred gave a content smile and let one of the roots wrap around the Hatter before making the root grow thicker and soon enough thorns were growing and digging against the vulnerable flesh. "I should eat you up, I should eat you slowly and then when you reincarnate I am going to look for you and I'm going to torture you and drive you insane until you forget your dear Queen, until you forget what you felt for him and you can only see me…because I am the only one that matters. Your dear Alice." The sunny blond snickered and then laughed, his head tilting against his shoulder as a rose moved across the hatter's neck. "Now off with your head!"
The Hatter shook his head and closed his eyes, tears slowly rolling down from the corner of his eyes. No, he couldn't die. No! Everything would go to waste, but he couldn't beat Alice, it was almost as impossible as becoming sane. Everything was going to end, everything was going to become what once were and he was going to be miserable again and he was going to hate who he was and who he was with. Maybe it was the way it was meant to be, just like it said in the book that belong to his Queen, that the Queen wrote himself and the Kitty gave Alfred in an attempt to keep the memory of his Queen inside the blank, so he wouldn't be overpowered by Alice's memories.
Arthur waited, he waited for the known feeling of a blade to pierce his neck but it never came. Slowly he opened his eyes and stared at the frozen figure of Alice. The other male was not moving but his eyes were as wide as they could get and he was just as confused as Arthur.
'I'm not going to let you hurt him anymore.'
The voice from before was back and Alice swallowed heavily as his legs moved by themselves, the heavy limbs dragged him across the room and he quickly glanced around to try to get help but Dum and Dee were being mutilated by the March Hare and the Caterpillar, he was too busy holding his own ground against the cat that was obviously just playing with him and was not even trying to truly fight him. He was alone, there was no one to help him and he tried to stop moving but he couldn't and soon enough he was standing in front of the Queen's body that was slowly and starting to heal.
"Stop! Don't you dare!" With a growl the sunny blond tried his best to regain control of his body but nothing was working. The chains were once again moving around the Queen's body and slowly they wrapped themselves around the corpse until the fallen teen looked like a mummy. The chains wriggled and twitched before crushing the body, making blood splash around and coat Alfred's clothes. The long weapons began to make noises then, crunching and chewing noises until the corpse was gone, until nothing was on the floor and they unwrapped and disappear leaving Alice staring at the bloody floor with wide eyes. "No, nononono!" He screamed and wrapped his arms around his head.
Alice's world went blank.
Alfred slowly opened his eyes. The two orbs glanced around his surroundings but there was nothing but darkness. Where was he? The agent shifted and tried to move but he was floating in mid air and it did little to no good. With a frown he tried to at least move his legs and walk around and thankfully he was able to do that but the darkness seem to be endless.
"Ah, there you are."
Alfred quickly spun around and came face to face with…himself.
In front of him another sunny blond was smiling at him, except this person looked younger and was wearing the clothes the Queen had been wearing. But asides from that the two looked exactly the same. Same hair, same eyes, same skin and same body proportions. It was like if he was looking at himself on a mirror, a mirror that would show your younger self.
"Who are you?" The agent narrowed his eyes.
"I'm the Queen of Hearts. The Queen of Wonderland." The boy answered with a smile and tilted his head. "I am who you are."
"What do you mean? The Hatter…The Hatter said that I was Alice." Alfred frowned softly and gave the kid a suspicious glance.
"I know what the Hatter said, I know who you are Mr. Alfred Jones and I know what he tried to do." The Queen sighed softly and took a step forward until he was standing in front of Alfred. "The Hatter, he is a bit crazy you see…but he is lovely." And the blue eyes of the teenager were filled with love as he said this. "You see, we couldn't be together. He was meant to be with Alice and so that needed to stay that way in order for him not to die but that was a lie…Alice, he lied to keep the Hatter by his side, so he could keep him." The Queen nodded his head slowly but then smiled.
"I-I don't understand, you need to explain this to me." Alfred gave a weak nod and he pulled off his glasses to rub the bridge of his nose.
"It is a long story." The Queen nodded his head slowly but looked up to stare at Alfred with a determinate look. "But I'll explain you everything." And that determined look reminded Alfred so much of himself. "I was born out of the madness of your own world, all of their negative energy and all of their hate and darkness. I was created and was turned into something more positive, but I was born in a different place, it was an empty kingdom that was created out of the unfulfilled dreams of the humans. I was all alone you see, and it was a very hard and sorrowful life, so slowly and unconsciously I started to create other beings, other beings to keep me company and those new creatures slowly created the kingdom of Wonderland." The younger male nodded his head slowly then glanced around the darkness.
"But, I started to notice that the more I tried to get closer to my own creations, the madder they would become and soon enough they would die. I created more beings and this time I kept my distance, instead I would watch them by far and their happiness was my happiness, even if I couldn't be near them, in the end if I could make them feel good then that was all that matter." The sunny blond grinned this time and gave a thumbs up before his smile fell off and he frowned. "Still, they would keep dying and it was then that I noticed that they were being reborn in the human world, I never noticed this before because I tried my best to stay away from humans but once I noticed this I began to drag them back into Wonderland and the only way of doing it was for them to become mad or open their eyes to reality. So I did that, I drove them insane until they were capable of seeing wonderland."
Alfred rubbed his lips together. "The Hatter mentioned this before, he explained this to me. What I want to know is what is happening, why did you die, how did it happen?"
The Queen chuckled softly and just rolled his eyes. "Want to skip all of that uh? Fine." He shrugged his shoulders and crossed his arms over his chest. "Because I couldn't be near my people I grew very lonely but I still had a duty to fulfill and I had to go back to the real world and get them…specially one. The Hatter, he would die pretty quickly. I think the longest he ever got to live when I was around was fifteen or twenty years and I mean his life-spam in Wonderland." The teen rubbed his shoulder and his eyes appeared to be glowing with something every time he spoke of the hatter. "So I was forced to get him back over and over again but not only him but a lot of the people in Wonderland, in order to fix this I created Alice, so he could keep the balance."
"But Alice became corrupted and began to spread what he thought was his own balance." Alfred added in with a small glare.
"Exactly." The younger Alfred said. "I didn't notice this though, still let's skip a bit more! So the Hatter would die very often and he was very hard to drive insane, because even his human self was stubborn and somewhat used to the madness, so I had to be very extreme…and even when he was a child I would visit him and make him able to see glimpses of Wonderland so he could begging to lose his sanity little by little with the pass of time and then I would appear to deliver the final blow." The Queen said it with a big grin, after all he was proud of what he had done.
"Still, what I didn't expect was for the Hatter to one day come to my castle and tell me something so silly that I couldn't believe him. He said that he loved me and at first I couldn't believe him…"
The words were lost in Alfred's ears because images were now flashing in front of his eyes, showing him exactly what the Queen was talking about.
The Queen sighed softly and stared at the scene outside his windows. The people in wonderland was walking outside the castle and some of them were playing by the pond, splashing water against themselves. The older people was discussing something while eating and some women were scolding their children for misbehaving. The outstanding figures, like the Turtle and the Mouse were chatting in between them, while Dum and Dee were wrestling on the grass.
How fun, how fun it would be to join them and to enjoy the day with them, but no. He couldn't, if he did then they would die and if they died it would just bring sadness to their lives.
"You look lonely, so lonely! So lonely you may become mad!"
Alfred snapped his head to the side and rolled his eyes at the Hatter. The shorter male was standing next to him, wearing a silly worn out top hat and old clothes that were barely hanging from his figure. "What are you doing here Hatter? Get out before I cut off your head."
The green eyed male pouted and shook his head and even got closer until he was sitting on the window and blocking the Queen's view. "I'm not leaving, no, no, no! Not leaving at all! I'm here to talk with the Queen and so that's what I am going to do!" He huffed and crossed his arms over his chest before smiling and swinging his legs back and forth.
"Okay fine, what do you want?" The sunny blond rolled his eyes but still he had to grin at the way the silly Hatter was acting.
"Well you see, you see…I'm here to tell you something very, very important!" Arthur smiled a bit more and leaned in so he was only a couple of inches away from the Queen. "I-I…I-I'm here to tell you that I love you." The words came out softly and filled with sincerity.
The Queen just stared and then gave a chuckle. "Don't be stupid Hatter, you don't even know me, you don't even know who I am but you do know that I'm cruel and wouldn't think twice about cutting off that little he-"
"That's a lie." The Hatter interrupted and the Queen just stared at him. "I know you, every time I die and I'm reborn in the human world you come to get me and when I'm nothing but a child you make me see Wonderland and I see everything, even you. I know everything you do for us and how it gets unnoticed, I know how much you sacrifice and I know how lonely you are." The shorter male nodded his head slowly and rubbed his lips together. He wasn't even speaking like he usually would, and it was making Alfred surprised to know that the crazy Hatter was capable of speak without riddles or confusing people.
"I have died a lot of times, so I have watched you over the years, for so many years. Every single time I die I fall in love with you a little bit more. Every time I wish to be near you, you are madness itself and I love madness so I don't care if I die many times, because I would die happily." The Hatter chuckled softly, and glanced away a blush slowly crawling on his face.
"You are with Alice."
"I don't love Alice, I hate him. He hurts me, he does anything he wants with me, and he is lying. He is a liar a big liar, he is always lying and nobody believes me!" Arthur screamed this time and closed his eyes.
"Alice was created to keep balance in Wonderland. He wouldn't lie. If he says you must be with him in order to keep balance then so be it. Plus, I don't love you."
"I broke his heart that day, he was so sad that he became madder and died the next day." The Queen stared down at his feet with sadness, his hands lightly shaking. "But he didn't give up; he kept coming back and spending time with me. He was a crazy little hatter and soon enough I fell in love with him as well, but we couldn't be together, the more we spent time together the faster he would die and Alice was starting to suspect things." The younger Alfred frowned and shook his head. "So we kept everything a secret, we would see each other once in a while and we would enjoy our time together as much as we could but in the end the time we could spend together was not enough so we started to think about other things…like the human world."
"We decided to spend time together in the human world, so now instead of driving him mad right away, I would do it slowly. I would rape him, torture him and do so many things to him that he would enjoy if he was the real Hatter, so he could remember, so he could remember how much I love him once he was able to remember who he was." The Queen snickered softly, his blue eyes turning darker shade of blue was he spoke of this. "He always said he loved what I did to him, so I would make it better and better every time and soon he began to cherish those moments and so he turned them into his weapon."
Alfred shivered and shook his head; the memories of what the Queen was talking about were soon clouding his mind. It was what he had seen before back in his real world. How he was torturing and raping and then willingly fucking the Hatter. How he was doing all of those things to him and it never felt wrong, no. It felt just right, and now he understood why. It was because the Hatter wanted him to do those things to him, so he could enjoy their time together and then Arthur could do it as well in his memories.
"But it wasn't enough for him, he wanted us to be together in Wonderland, the place he so much loved and with the madness he so much enjoyed." The blue eyed boy sighed, his shoulders sulking a little bit. "He killed me and ate me and he did the same with Alice. Now I am able to understand why, because Alice figured it out and Alice is now part of us, except he is gone and is nothing but memories now. Still, he did it because he used the logic of a mad person. If I can't be with the person I love but I can be with someone else then I should just switch them and that's what he did. He made Alice the Queen and the Queen Alice, that way he was going to be able to be with me, because I was going to become Alice and the Alice was going to become the Queen, the person he couldn't be with."
The Queen chuckled softly and glanced away. "How pathetic, he was the one that took action instead of me. My idea was to unite both worlds and the fake queen was able to put it in motion but I wasn't, because I was too scared, because I loved my kingdom so he was the one that decided to do something. He didn't hesitate, because he knew what he wanted but I am not as mad as he is so I just saw obstacles and everything was too complicated." The teenager rubbed his face and then leaned his head against Alfred's chest.
"But his plan went wrong when allies of Alice stepped in and made our blank remember Alice completely and so the memories overcame the two of us. Blanks are born with a minimum knowledge of who we used to be, as we become madder and madder we remember more and more, until we become one and who we are meant to be."
Alfred gave a weak nod and placed one of his hands on top of the teen's head. He could understand what the Queen was saying, because he was able to see it. The Hatter had tried to drive him insane, but just insane enough for him to open his eyes to Wonderland yet, during that time Alfred was able to see memories of who he used to be and what he did to the Hatter, but when the Hatter gave him the memories of Alice everything became too confusing, so he was unable to protect who he was and Alice was capable of taking over his body.
"I want to be with him." The Queen whispered softly. "In order to do that, we must become one." With a soft noise he tilted his head back to stare at his older self a smile spreading across his lips. "I'll fix everything in your world, the madness would be gone and everything is going to be better. I promise."
The agent felt his throat running dry and he closed his eyes. If he accepted he was not going to be able to see his friends again, none of them. He was not going to be able to go back home and live his normal life, his parents would be gone, his siblings as well. Alfred was going to give up everything in his life for this…and it felt so right. Everything felt so right now, it was like if he had found something he was missing in his life before and now everything was coming together. He was never going to be able to forgive the Hatter for what he did to those children though and he was sure the Queen knew about this.
"I have a plan, to make everything better. You are going to forget what he did and I promise, you are not going to hate him anymore." The shorter sunny blond smiled.
"What about Alice, and the people that follow Alice, they are going to try to take revenge, they are going to try something." The agent added with a panicking tone in his voice.
"By now the Cat and the March Hare already probably ate them. It would be a few years before they are reborn, same with Alice."
"But they are going to be reborn and so the peace won't last." Alfred took a step back, his hands shaking a little bit.
"Don't worry, my plan would fix that too. I am the only one that knows how to find people in Wonderland, for anyone else it would take them longer, much longer. That's why it took the Hatter twenty-seven years to find you, when I usually get my people back during their teenager years and the people that follow Alice is gone." The queen took a step forward and then smiled, his smile just as bright as the one Alfred himself owned. "And don't worry, you won't be lost, you are part of who I am and so we are just going to become one."
The older blond took a deep breath and closed his eyes before grinning and nodding his head. "Fine, let's make it work."
"Awesome!" The Queen almost squeaked and everything went red.
Azure eyes opened slowly and stared at the forest green eyes in front of him. The Queen smiled softly and slowly sat on the floor as the Hatter moved to the side to let him do so. The shorter male was staring at Alfred, his green eyes somewhat bigger than before, his hands were nervously playing with his sleeves and for now he was avoiding eye contact with the blue eyed male.
What the Hatter wasn't expecting though was the Queen to pull him by the arm and against his body before wrapping his arms around his frame and kissing his lips. It was bliss itself and the sandy blond closed his eyes and quickly wrapped his arms around Alfred, his fingers running through the sunny blond hair before pulling the other closer until their bodies were touching and their mouths were melting against each other.
"Y-you are back, it worked! It worked!" Arthur giggled softly and hugged the sunny blond closer, his eyes tearing up a little bit as he pulled away from the hug.
"It did you silly Hatter." The Queen gently ran his fingers across Arthur's face, his thumb rubbing against the soft lips.
Ivan chuckled softly from behind and gently brushed some dust off of his suit, although that did little to no good since he was now covered on blood and the Caterpillar was nowhere in sight. The cat smiled and licked his bloody lips. "Ah, so the Queen is back, good, good. Maybe now you can fix this whole mess!"
Alfred glanced around him and sighed softly, his throne room was a mess, blood was coating the walls and the floor and all of his cards were dead. The floor were torn and the ceiling was cracking and dirty with disgusting maggots were slowly crawling around what was left of the pretty floor. The sunny blond noticed the March Hare and the Rabbit just smiled at him before walking near the group, his clothes were also coated with blood and he was now caring two scythes that obviously did not belong to him.
The Queen chuckled, his eyes glancing around the room once again before he got to his feet. "I already started, the worlds are not uniting anymore and the separation is happening." With a nod he glanced at the Hatter that was now clinging to one of his arms and nuzzling his cheek against his shoulder. "Everything would be alright Cat." Alfred glanced at the violet eyed male from the corner of his eyes and then smirked. "But for now, I think we are going to be leaving."
Ivan laughed and closed his eyes when a symbol appeared behind the Hatter and the Queen. The two were soon enough gone, leaving the two behind with the bloody mess all around them. "I think, it is a wonderful day to walk outside."
"Shall we?" The Rabbit smiled and tossed the two scythes against the floor.
"Yes, I think we should."
The two turned around and left the throne room. Sunlight was already shinning through the dark clouds of Wonderland and slowly the once opaque world was turning a bright, lively world once again. The flowers were stretching and yawning and the trees were rapidly growing, making their long branches give a comfortable shade. The grass was growing and the once empty pond was full of water. People was slowly peeking out from within their homes and walking out, shielding their eyes from the sunlight. It was like waking up from a long dream, a dream that turned into a nightmare.
Alfred snickered softly as he pushed the Hatter against his bed, his hands quickly pulling off the other's shirt before tossing it away uncaringly. "So long, it has been so long." He whispered against Arthur's neck and bit down on the skin, his hands already working on pulling the annoying pants down until the piece of clothing was showing what he wanted to see. "You are so mean, torturing me like that, making everything such a big mess. I should punish you for that my silly Hatter."
"I-I wanted to be with you, I did what I had to do." The sandy blond frowned and nodded his head but soon enough a loud moan was crawling out from his throat. The Hatter glanced down, staring at what was happening. The Queen was sucking and biting on his nipples, twisting them roughly before taking them in his mouth again. Fingers were soon being pushed against Arthur's mouth and he quickly sucked on the digits, his tongue rubbing and coating the fingers with saliva until drool was running down his chin.
The forger agent smirked and pulled his fingers back. He stared at his wet fingers for a couple of seconds before easily pushing his middle finger inside the other's tight opening. "You know that we still can't be together right?" The Queen added, his finger thrusting in and out slowly, making the male underneath him squirm and moan softly. "They will be back and you are going to keep dying when around me. So let's become mad, the two of us, until we die. Let's live a normal human life, I'll leave my kingdom if you are willing to leave your madness. I am willing to sacrifice what I cherish the most if you do so as well." Alfred smiled and kissed the full lips as another finger was added inside the smaller body.
"Y-you can't become mad, y-you just create madness." The Hatter gasped loudly and arched his back, his hips slowly rocking back and forth against the fingers before he shivered and spread his legs apart, giving the other more room to move.
"I'll become mad for you, as mad as a Hatter." The Queen snickered softly and added a third finger, the digits were now thrusting in and out, spreading apart the tight opening before forcing their way deeper inside until the ring of muscles was gaping and swallowing the fingers deeper inside, wanting more and begging for more.
"I-if you do that, then I'll become so mad I'll become sane. Y-yeah, I'll give up one love for the other." Arthur smiled softly, his half lidded eyes staring at the blue eyes on top of him.
Alfred smirked and unzipped his pants. "Let's be so mad that we are sane then, my little Hatter." He nodded and got in between the Hatter's legs, his head leaning down to rest against the soft skin underneath him. "So mad, we would die." And he chuckle was he moved closer, his member rubbing against the tight hole in front of him and with a quick move he thrust in, letting the tight head envelop his whole length.
"Ah! A-alfred you git! H-how many times h-have I told you not to push in the whole thing!" Arthur whined softly and glanced back at the American that was grinning down at him. He let out a soft a noise and turned his head away from the sight to bury his face against the pillows underneath him. The shorter male let out soft whimpering noises and pushed his hips back, moaning loudly once he felt some friction inside his body.
"eheh, sorry Art but I can't help myself, plus I don't think you mind it." Alfred snickered and ran his fingers over his boyfriend's back. "You are even arching like a cat, I think you like it that much uh?" He smirked and wrapped his hands around the hips in front of him before pulling them back against his body as he thrust back and forth inside the petite Brit. "I think you like to n-nag too much, even in sex."
"S-shut your trap and keep moving!" The frustrated sandy blond yelled against his pillow and huffed. He soon regret it when the male behind him began to roughly move inside of him, rolling his hips back just to push forward with brute force. Arthur closed his eyes and moaned, his upper body melting against the pillows as his hips moved along with Alfred, letting the other roughly fuck him and use his asshole as he pleased. "M-more, A-alfred." The Brit lightly whined keeping his upper body high in the air as his knees began to tremble.
"First you bitch then you beg, you bipolar bitch." Alfred laughed softly and leaned forward his tongue running along Arthur's shoulder.
"D-don't be mean!" Arthur whined softly and shook his head, his hands holding tightly on his pillows before he let out a deep moan and closed his eyes, his hips now moving on its own, rocking back and forth to follow Alfred's rough movements. He shivered and closed his eyes, feeling how his asshole was pulling Alfred closer and deeper, wrapping tightly around the member inside of him. The Brit felt his brain shutting down before roughly jerking and making him scream when Alfred's cock hit his prostate. The Brit's body turned into a shaky mess as he began to spam around and jerk his body back against the American, desperately moving and trying to get the other to hit the same spot again!
"Mhm, cute slut Art." Alfred whispered on his ear and thrust deeper inside to rub against the same spot again. "Why don't you moan a little more." And the sunny blond snickered when he got what he wanted. He shivered and groaned, listening to the way his boyfriend was moaning and squirming underneath him, how the body was shaking and jerking back against his own, trying to melt against his being. The American almost choked with a moan when he felt Arthur releasing against the bed sheets, his asshole tightening around his member until it was almost impossible to move. The tight heat was squeezing him and wrapping him full and it only took a couple of seconds for Alfred to find his release, his cum soon enough filling the smaller body underneath his.
"Y-you are a beast." Arthur said after a couple of minutes, his panting now under control.
"Why thank you!" Alfred grinned and then yelped when a pillow was shoved on his face.
"Not like that you bastard!" The Brit huffed and rolled away from under Alfred before standing up and groaning. "Now I have to take a shower. "
"Do it fast! I'm hungry! I wanna go get something to eat." The sunny blond stretched until a popping noise was heard and he groaned in pleasure.
"Fine, fine, you selfish douchebag."
It took Arthur around half of hour to take a shower that he found had done the job done, plus it was longer than usual because of the cum that kept crawling out from between his legs and that he quickly had to wash away. It was so embarrassing and made him wonder why he didn't punch the damn American every time he did this! He was so selfish and inconsiderable!
The couple was living in a two bedroom apartment in London, and even though they were just renting for now it felt as homey as it could get. Alfred's office was downstairs while Arthur's office was upstairs, the Brit picked the dark room because it was needed for his photography, while Alfred needed light for his artwork. It was odd, how the two ended up going to the same Art school in California and before they knew it they were dating. Alfred was studying animation while Alfred was studying professional photography. Still, before they knew it they were done with College and Arthur had to go back to London and for his surprise Alfred decided to follow him.
The two were capable of finding a stable job and soon enough they were living by themselves, something Arthur's mother was extremely happy about since the two were too much for her to handle when they were together! Alfred was a sweetheart she would say but he was just too hyperactive compared to what his dear mother was used to dealing with.
The Brit chuckled softly and changed into some comfortable, fitting jeans before putting on some combat boots and a long sleeves shirt. "Come on Alfred, let's go get your damn food."
The sunny blond jumped off of the couch and turned off the TV with a grin. "Good, I'm starving!" by now Alfred was wearing his normal cargo pants and T-shirts so at least he was not thinking about going out naked! "And it's raining so you better get your umbrella."
"You got your own already?" Arthur asked as he got his umbrella from the small closet next to the tiny kitchen.
"Yep!" Alfred said cheerfully and opened the front door as he opened his umbrella.
"Let's go then." And the two were out of the house soon enough, walking along the streets and next to each other. Alfred was like always chatting about how awesome it was to work with animators and how many new characters he was creating in his studio. Of course he even informed Arthur that he decided to create a female version of himself, which earned a smack from the Brit, because what was shown to him was a girl with pigtails that was wearing nothing but an apron.
"It's sexy!"
That's the excuse the American gave him before giving Arthur a present the next day, which happen to be an apron and ironically enough they ended up having sex with the Brit only wearing that. It was embarrassing but enjoyable so Arthur decided not to yell at Alfred for what he did.
The Englishman had been too busy with his thoughts that he didn't notice the figure in front of him until the bumped against the tall male in front of him. Arthur yelped softly and quickly took a step back. "S-sorry! I wasn't pay attention." He gave an polite smile and tilted his head to stare at the man in front of him.
Violet eyes stared down at Arthur. "Ah, its fine. I wasn't paying attention myself!" The tall male was completely soak from the rain, his coat was clinging to his form and his hair was covering his eyes a little bit.
"Ah, w-what are you doing out here without an umbrella!" Arthur quickly asked and then glanced at Alfred that was now standing next to him.
"He has mines and won't share it." The smiling male said and pointed at the man that was standing behind him. The new male figure was smirking and his red eyes were staring at the couple, his white hair was just long enough to cover his forehead but not the rest of his eyes.
"I'm too awesome to let you under my umbrella." The albino said with a bigger smirk.
"See? He is just so mean." The violet eyed male said and shook his head.
"Well, what an asshole." Alfred mumble out and then yelped when Arthur gently elbow him on the stomach.
"Uh, well…here, you can have mines. I can share with dorky over here." Arthur said and got underneath Alfred's umbrella before offering the stranger his own.
"Ah, why thank you." The tall male accepted the umbrella and then reached for something underneath his clothes. It was a business card that he quickly gave to the Brit. "Come and pick it up here please, and maybe I can give you something in return for your kindness."
Arthur took the surprisingly dry cart and quickly read the name. "Ivan Braginski." He said out loud and turned his eyes back to the man in front of him but he was gone, and so was the albino. "W-where did they go?"
Alfred blinked and quickly glanced around but the pair was nowhere in sight. "I don't know." With a frown the American glanced at the card. "Toy company uh? That sounds like fun!" He grinned and glanced at Arthur.
The Brit flipped the card over and blinked at the grin that was drawn and the small quote underneath it. "'Mad people will forever be damned.' That's a weird slogan for a toy company." The sandy blond tilted his head, flipping the card over again to read the address and phone number.
"We should check it out! It may be fun, maybe he can give us like free toys and stuff." The American laughed softly and began to move, pulling his boyfriend along with him.
"Maybe, well I do want my umbrella back." The green eyed male said with a chuckle and put the card in his pocket.
The two missed the pair of red and violet eyes that were following their movements and the grins that were spreading across their faces.
This fic was a lot of fun to write, many things could have went in a different way but I decided that it was best to end it like this. Maybe in the future I would write spin offs that have to do with different parts of the fic but I can't promise that. Over all I wanted to write a romance that wasn't like all the other fics, I wanted it to be violent and twisted and to have all types of emotions mixed into it. I am satisfied and I know I probably left a couple of plot holes but I believe they were not as important as other parts in the fic. I am going to try to answer any questions people may have but it may take me a while, since school is always in the way.
All that I have left to do is to fix all the mistakes in this fic. Seriously, having a tight schedule is such a horrible thing.
Thanks to Mira for everything and like always, reviews amuse me.
