Those two…they never told me where the castle was!
Next time I see them I'll choke them!
So I guess I was lost this time.
It's a first for me. It's so quiet in the woods, the only thing you can hear is the birds chirping.
It had become daytime, it was night when I was at jokers place.
Time sure changes fast.. he did mention something about that.
Wonderland is amazing however you think about it. But…what to do now? I'm lost and who knows when time will change again. the only reason I'm going to meet Peter White is because I want to know why he led me here. If it wasn't because of that I wouldn't ever want to see his face again…never. castle of hearts…it's probably another guy who owns it. I have given up on finding anything other than males here. but…will I really be able to return? I wonder if my parents has noticed that I'm gone by now…I have to win this game no matter what. I'll show you.. peter white! after that it became really quiet.. Even the birds had left. I could hear my footsteps and nothing else. it was anything but pleasant.
I felt as if something or someone watched me. The jokers couldn't have followed me.. Could they? I heard a bush rustle and I took a few steps back only to find out it was a squirrel. "don't scare me like that" I gave out a sigh of relief and began walking again , faster this time. the wind was getting stronger and before I knew it I was running, I didn't know what I was running from. I ran and ran until I bumped into someone. We both fell to the ground. There we were, practically lying on top of each other. A pretty tall man with brown hair and dark red eyes. This person actually seemed pretty normal.
I got off of him and was sitting on the ground, inspecting him. With a surprised expression he looked at me with his beautiful eyes. I blushed. "I-I'm sorry, are you hurt?" I asked and offered him my hand to help him up. He got up, brushed the dust off of his red clothes and smiled at me. "nope, are you?" I stood up and gazed at him. He was unique.. I felt like something about him was special . "I'm alright, sorry I should have watched where I was going.." I apologized once again and walked past him until he grabbed my arm. "wait!" he said and pulled me closer to him. "you didn't tell me your name." he teased me and I think my heart skipped a little. Why? Why did it do that? "my name is Michael, now let me go already!" I yelled at him, tried to kick him but he didn't let go. Instead his grip only became more tighter. "why so upset? " this guy… he's still smiling. It doesn't seem like he's angry at all. " who are you?" I glared at him, but the more I looked into his eyes the calmer I became. I settled down and avoided eye contact this time. The man smiled again. "me? My name is Ace! I am the knight of the castle of hearts. Nice to meet you Michael". he ruffled my hair a bit and laughed. really…it seems like I only run into idiots all the time. " don't act all friendly with me." I murmured. but this guy is from the castle of hearts? And a knight at that.. the brunette put a hand to his chin . "but… I'm lost , could you give me instructions on where to go?" …great… "too bad, I'm lost too, I was on my way to the castle of hearts to see peter white." I sighed and finally he let go of my arm. "I see…do you want me to accompany you? Actually I'm headed there as well, since my business at the clock tower is finished already." clock tower… if I'm correct that is the only place that is neutral. If white hadn't told me anything I would be so clueless about it all now. Ace waved his hands in front of me. "hello? Are you there?" I seem to have the habit of daydreaming.. got to snap out of it. " I am…and I would be very grateful if you could lead me to the castle but weren't you lost only moments ago?" I deadpanned and the guy chuckled. "well I think I have found the right way now." he pointed at a road turning right.
"are you sure?" I asked , a bit uncertain. The guy tilted his head a bit and said he was 'very sure' of it. Until we walked straight into some sort of clock tower ! I glared at the man who just had assured me of this being the right way. " Ace… this is not the right way." I just knew I couldn't trust this guy. "right, let's go back" I suggested and the brunette just nodded and followed me. We were once again in the forest and there were two crossroads. "which way?" I asked.. If that guy would tell me to turn left I would just simply turn right. He put one of his hands on my shoulder and pointed at the road at the right with his other hand "hey michael! Let's go this way~" .. left it is… instantly I began walking the other way and ace pouted. "you're no fun." but he shrugged and followed me anyway. This time we were at the amusement park. "right…how did we end up here?" Exhausted as I was I took a seat on a bench inside the amusement park. Ace sat beside me and just giggled. " you really have no sense of direction!" …he laughed at me… he who also had no fucking sense of direction. "shut up ace. I don't want to be told that by you" "hey, why not stay here for a while? I mean this is an amusement park after all, why not have some fun before heading to the castle?" …perfect, he already thinks I'm his friend. "no, Ace…I really need to talk to Peter. We can go to the amusement park after I have interrogated that damn rabbit." "michael ... just face it, fate simply does not want you to meet sir peter" ace told me while relaxing on that bench, suddenly eating ice cream. "Ace could you please refrain from talking about fate? I have had enough of it already, let's go." the young knight didn't say a thing after that… he simply followed me and after a while, we reached the castle.
With pure skills and not luck. A marchen looking castle of hearts was it. If this was all a dream, I really wish that I would wake up right now….
