Black: * rolls eyes * Here's the story, bitches!

Chapter Two: Pervy Rabbit!

Well, falling down the hole was kinda' fun. It was really freeing, you know. Like I would finally be able to do something fun.

"This feels like flying!" I yelled joyously to Peter. He smiled.

"I suppose it does." he smiled again. "Alas, we cannot fall forever." He said it like he was sad.

Then, suddenly, a light shown from below. The bright whiteness blinded me as a strong sleepy feeling overtook me.

"Gah!"

I awoke on some hard, coarse ground, with Peter's concerned face hovering above me.

"Alice!" he said happily. He encased me in a bone-crushing hug. "I'm so glad you're awake!"

"Mmmph!" My cries of "Get off me, pervy rabbit!" were muffled into his red suit jacket.

"Here, Alice, drink this!" He held out a small crystal vial, multifaceted, with a small heart-shaped stopper holding the clear, blue liquid inside.

"How 'bout no." I scrambled back scaredly. I ran into a hard, escape-preventing wall.

"Please, Alice!"

"No!"

"Fine." he said simply. "I'll just have to make you." He grinned and tipped the liquid into his mouth.

"Wh-what?" I stammered as he closed the space between us and leaned down.

He grabbed my shoulders and pulled me closer.

"Why?" I whispered as he leaned forward with a full-cheeked grin.

Then, he kissed me. Not one of Alex's needy, demanding kisses. A loving, passionate one.

He prized my mouth open with the hand that had taken a firm hold on my chin, and pushed the liquid into my mouth, forcing me to drink it or drown.

"I hope you enjoyed that as much as I did." he said in a low voice after pulling away.

"W-what the hell!" I sputtered.

"See you later, Alice." His voice sounded farther away, and there was the sound of footsteps echoing around. I looked up to see him walking off through some large gates. "Let's meet again."

"Stupid, pervy, demanding, rabbit-man." I muttered angrily, squeezing the little vial in a pissed-off death grip.

I stood up slowly, still sore from the fall, and dusted myself off. My bride's maid dress was still intact, though. The floaty, sheer, pale red fabric was as beautiful as ever, and the dark red ballet flats were still silky and comfortable.

"Though, not exactly the best to walk through a forest in." I muttered, walking across the courtyard and eying the large, imposing forest beyond.

I walked through them, the golden afternoon sun making light patches in between the dark path. What a wonderful place to be brought to after being kidnapped. I thought sarcastically. I could feel the scowl on my face.

Finally, after several uneventful minutes of walking that would bore people, I arrived at a small clearing.

It was large, perfectly circular, and there was a small blue pond on the left side. Sighing, I walked over to it.

Now, a young girl was added to the reflection of the afternoon sky. She had long, chestnut hair and large turquoise eyes, partly hidden under bangs, and she was wearing a tired expression. She sighed.

A rustling from the forest brought me out of my reverie.

I whipped around, standing up. "Wh-who's there?" My eyes darted back and forth.

I remembered the small, red pocket knife strapped to my thigh, for times when Alex became forceful. I pulled it out clumsily.

"I-I'm warning you. If you come near me, I'll-" I warned shakily before I was cut off.

"You'll what, exactly?" a chipper voice said behind me. I whipped around, again to see a tall (well everyone's tall to my 4'10 stature), handsome, man, with shaggy brown hair, red eyes, and a creepy grin.

He had a long, gleaming sword pointed at me.

"Um, eat cereal?" I blurted out in a panic. The sword freaked me out, though not as much as the grin.

He laughed. "Oh, really?"

"Probably not," I said, nervously, with a shrug, still staring at the sword. "B-but I'm probably in a coma or hell or something, so I'm pretty sure I won't die."

He laughed again and, to my relief, sheathed his sword. "You must be a foreigner!" He strolled forward and extended a hand. "I'm Ace, the Knight of Hearts!"

Penguin: Yep, she meets Ace first!

Black: Why couldn't she have met me first, we could have had tons of fun. * evil grin *

Penguin: She's not getting raped, you perv!

Black: Fine, I have someone else in mind, anyway. * stares at evilly *

Penguin: * dives behind White * Save me!

White: I think I'll join you, Black. * turns around and backs Penguin into a corner with Black *

Penguin: Meh! Help me, Mr. Quacks!

* purple duck walks in and kicks some Joker ass *

Penguin: * hugs Mr. Quacks * Thank you!
