In The Lanes Between

Sora, Riku and Kairi were riding their gliders to the next world on their journey.

"We were so close of getting the Vessel." Sora said annoyed.

"But at least they didn't get Kairi or the crystal." Riku said.

"Even still, their one step ahead of us." Kairi said.

"More like two steps." Sora said.

"Don't worry Sora we'll stop them." Kairi said.

"Hey guys looks like another World is coming up." Riku said pointing.

Sora looked at where Riku was pointing. It was Wonderland but it was different from last time this time there was two castles one red at the world's top and the other white and the worlds bottom and in the middle was a giant chest board that looked like a battle field.

"It looks like Wonderland but it looks different." Sora said.

"Wonderland was always a different world." Riku said.

"Good point being it's a perfect place to find the vessel and Alice." Sora said.

"Then we're agreed?" Kairi asked.

They nodded and began to land.


Wonderland: Red Queen's Castle

The moment they landed they were in the red castle courtyard. The entire place was creepy and they could feel fear all around the place. Then a giant nineteen year old girl with blonde hair wearing red rags and holding a sword came out if a stable but Sora recognised her.

"Alice is that you?" Sora asked.

"A lot of people have asked that today but we can talk about that later right know I need to recuse my friend." Alice said in a annoyed tone.

"Then we'll come with you." Kairi said.

"So what's going on?" Riku asked as they walked.

"To tell the truth I'm not sure but I was summoned here to stop the Red Queen and put the White Queen back on the throne." Alice said.

"Let, me guess the Red Queen is the one with a short temper and likes to cut people's head off." Sora said.

"Yes and from what I've heard a man in a black coat is helping her." Alice said.

"The Organization!" Riku said.

"You know that guy?" Alice asked.

"He's part of an Organization wanting for darkness to rule all." Kairi said.

"I've heard he's after something." Alice said.

"Not something someone." Riku said.

"And that someone is you." Sora said.

"What does he want me?" Alice asked.

"Do you remember a castle called Hollow Bastion?" Riku asked.

"Yes, but I thought it was a dream." Alice said.

"Well, it wasn't and their after us for the same reason as Maleficent." Kairi said.

"Then this isn't a dream it's real." Alice said.

Moments later they entered a room with dummies and fabric all around and sitting on a chair was white skin and orange hair man wearing a top hat, he also looked like he was mad.

"Alice you've found the Vorpal Sword and I see the Keyblade master has returned with friends." The guy said.

"Everyone this is the Mad Hatter." Alice said.

"I'm Sora and that Riku and Kairi." Sora said.

"We'll have time for a meet and greet later but right now we need to get out of here before-" Riku was saying.

"Before they find out that Alice is in the castle." A voice said.

They turned around and saw Isa and standing next to him was a Tall man with black hair, a heart shaped eye patch over his left eye and a scarred face. Then a couple of large armoured clad red playing cards all of the same from the suit hearts each holding a long red pike entered the room.

"That's Ilosovic Stayne the Knave of Hearts." The Mad Hatter said.

"And she is Alice and the Keyblade Master has turned her Majesty will be pleased." Stayne said.

"Get them." Isa ordered.

"I see we've over stead our welcome." Riku said summoning his Keyblade and broke the chains around the Mad Hatter's ankle.

The two card soldiers charged at them but Sora and Kairi summoned their Keyblades and knocked the card guard out. Stayne then pulled out a sword and Isa summoned his claymore they were about to attack but Riku casted a Blind spell blinding them.

"It'll wear off soon so let get out of here." Sora said.

Then the five of them ran back into the courtyard but they soon were surrounded by a group of card soldiers. Then Isa and Stayne walked outside obviously recovered from Riku's Blind spell.

"I should have known it was you the moment I saw you, but luckily Isa told us in exchange that he could take you and the princess to his master." Stayne said. "But first give us the sword it won't do you any good"

"Call me crazy, but I think it will." Sora said.

Sora looked at Riku and Kairi who nodded. Kairi then grabbed the Mad Hatter and summoned her angle wings and flew into the air while Sora and Riku each grabbed one of Alice's arms and flew into the air as well.

"Stop them." Isa ordered.

Isa jumped into the trying to hit them with his Claymore but Sora casted an Aeroaga spell blowing Isa back to the ground. They then flew out of the castle and started to fly south.

"Where should we go?" Kairi asked.

"We need to head to the White Queen's castle." The Mad Hatter said.

"Do you know where her castle is?" Riku asked.

"Of course if we keep doing in the direction we're going we'll get there in no time." The Mad Hatter said.


Wonderland: White Queen's Castle

Soon they reach a white castle unlike the red one this castle had a welcome feeling about it. Standing guard around the castle were white guards shaped like chess pieces each holding a white pike. Soon they entered the throne room and saw sitting in the throne was a beautiful woman with white hair wearing a white dress. Also standing next to the throne were King Mickey, Donald and Goofy.

"Your Majesty, Donald, Goofy it's great to see you." Sora said.

"It's great seeing you to." King Mickey said.

"I see you guys have found Alice." Goofy said.

"Yeah, but the Organization is here and their agent here is Isa." Sora said.

"Then we've got a lot to talk about." King Mickey said. He then looked at Alice and then back to Sora. "But later."

"I welcome you all to my castle." The White Queen said.

"I believe this belongs to you." Alice said handing the Vorpal Sword to her.

"At last the Vorpal Sword is home and the armour complete." The White Queen said placing it in the hands of a suit of armour. "Now all we need is a champion you're a little taller than I thought you'll be."

"I eat a bit too much cake." Alice said.

"Then come with me." The White Queen said. Then she and Alice walked away with them gone the six of them can talk about resent advents.

"The Organization has Cinderella now." King Mickey said.

"Then that just leaves four princesses left." Riku said.

"And they've at least got nine Vessels of Darkness." Kairi said.

"This is bad the Organization is one step ahead of us." Riku said.

"But at least we stop them from getting the crystal in Atlantis." Sora said.

"It won't do use any good if they open the door to Kingdom Hearts." Riku said.

"My it sounds like you're in quite a pickle." A voice said. They looked up and saw a grey, light blue striped, turquoise eyed tabby cat with a huge grin on his face appearing out of nowhere. "It looks like we meet again."

"You're the Cheshire Cat the cat who won't give us a straight answer." Sora said.

"Please call me Chessur and for all you know I might have given you a straight answer." Chessur said.

"Could have fooled me." Sora muttered. Then Alice who was normal sized and the White Queen entered the room.

"Your Majesty the Red Queen's forces are heading this way as we speak." Chessur said.

"Then we need a champion." The White Queen said.

"Then I'll do it." Sora said.

"No me!" Riku said.

"Let it be me." Kairi said.

"No I'll do it." Goofy said.

"Oh no you don't I'll me the champion." Donald said.

"Sorry fellows but I'm going to do it." King Mickey said.

"No let it be me." The Hatter said.

"I'm afraid only one person can do it." The White Queen said looking at Alice.

"What!? Me but I can't." Alice said.

"Alice I can't make you do it the choice must be yours because when step out there you'll have to do it alone." The White Queen said. Alice then ran away.

"Let me talk to her." Kairi said and she ran after Alice.

Kairi followed Alice sitting on a bench in a flower garden crying. "Can we talk?" She asked.

"Sure!" Alice said. Kairi then sat down next to her. "It's just I don't think I can take anyone's life."

"Sometimes we do things we don't like to help people. If you asked me two years ago that I would be fighting Heartless and Nobody's I would have thought you were crazy." Kairi said.

"Yes, but I've never fought in my life if you count using my powers to hold the darkness back from the Door to Darkness anything else would be impossible." Alice said.

"Nothing is impossible only if you believe it is. Besides if I can fight against dark forces you can as well because if you don't all the people in this world will be enslaved." Kairi said.

Meanwhile everyone was ready for the fight both Sora and Riku were wearing their Keyblade armour and the Mad Hatter was holding a sword and the chess pieces guards were battle hardened. The White Queen was getting onto her house and looked back hope that Alice would show up. Then suddenly the castle doors opened and Kairi wearing her Keyblade armour and Alice know wearing the Vorpal armour and carrying the Vorpal sword and shield ran towards them. everyone smiled and started to match towards the battle field.


Wonderland: Battle field

Once they entered the battle field they saw a women with a big head and whose hair style was heart shaped and was wearing red clothes and in her hand she was holding a heart shaped fan. Standing next to her was Isa and Stayne and behind them were an army of card guards and a large group of Berserkers Nobody's. Then both the White Queen and the Red Queen walked towards each other.

"Hello Iracebeth." The White Queen said.

"Hello Mirana." The Red Queen said. Then Chessur appeared in between them.

"You know the rules, each side choses a champion and they fight to the death with no outside help. The winner of the battle will then be declared the rule of Wonderland." Chessur said.

"Irace we don't have to fight." The White Queen said.

"Oh, I know what you're doing you think you can blink those pretty little eyes and I'll melt just like mummy and daddy did." The Red Queen said.

"Please!" The White Queen begged.

"NO! It is my crown I am the ultimate. Jabberwocky!" The Red Queen shouted. Suddenly a black dragon with sharp teeth, huge wings, a spiked tail and a forked tongue flew onto the battle field. "Where's your champion sister?"

"Right here." Alice said walking to the centre of the field.

"This shouldn't take very long." The Red Queen said.

"Don't underestimate her." Isa said.

"Please that girl against the Jabberwocky." The Red Queen said.

The battle started when the Jabberwocky tried to slam its fist at her. Luckily Alice dodged and tried to stab it with her sword but the Jabberwocky used its tail to grab Alice and throw her around. It then tried to slam its wings at her but Alice managed to roll out of the way. The Jabberwocky breathed out some purple fire but Alice used her shield blocking the flames but then the Jabberwocky used its tail to knock Alice away making her to drop her shield. The Jabberwocky breathed out fire once again, but Kairi jumped out casted a Protect spell shielding them from the Jabberwocky's fire.

"That's interfering off with her head." The Red Queen ordered.

Isa then summoned his claymore and Stayne pulled out his sword then their army charged at them. Sora, Riku and King Mickey summoned their Keyblades and Donald, Goofy and the Mad Hatter pulled out their weapons then their army charged. Both Sora and Riku took Isa on while the Mad Hatter fought Stayne leaving King Mickey, Donald and Goofy to lead the chess pieces guards to take on the Berserkers and the card guards.

"It would seem that your princess doesn't like to follow any rules." Isa said blocking Sora's Keyblade.

"It's called being a friend." Sora said and swung Ven's keyblade at Isa.

"It's called being dumb she was safe just watching and now she could lose her life." Isa said.

He then dodging Ven's Keyblade and kicked Sora in the chest pushing him back. Riku then jumped into the air slamming his Keyblade down. But Isa blocked and the two of them looked at each other face to face.

"I don't get it you need both Kairi and Alice alive in order to form the χ-blade and yet your making them fight to the death." Riku said.

"Please you and I both know that Alice will win the fight." Isa said and did another at them. They blocked it and looked at each other's faces again. "What I didn't count on was that your princess would jump in to save her."

"Well, she's helping now." Riku said.

Meanwhile King Mickey took out a Berserker a card guard was about to strike him but Goofy used his Goofy Bash move to knock it out and once the shield retuned he hit another one. Donald then casted a Thunderaga spell striking Berserkers and card guards alike.

As the fight was going on the Hatter was duelling Stayne he had just blocked one of Stayne attacks and tried to slash at him but Stayne ducked and slammed his sword down. Luckily the Hatter blocked it forcing the two of them to at each other eye to eye. Stayne was about to stab the Hatter but the Hatter took hold of a pin and poked it in Stayne head. This distracted Stayne long enough for the Hatter to trip him up with his sword.

Meanwhile both Kairi and Alice where running up some stairs in some here by ruins.

"You didn't had to jump in like that." Alice said.

"Of course I had to you're a friend and I don't leave a friend behind." Kairi said. Alice smiled but then it turned to face of panic.

"Behind you." Alice said pointing behind her.

Kairi looked around and saw the Jabberwocky charging straight at them. Both Kairi and Alice split up and the Jabberwocky crashed into a stone pillar.

Before it got up Kairi casted a Holy spell zapping the Jabberwocky with beams of light this made the Jabberwocky angry and started to attack her.

While Kairi was fighting the Jabberwocky Alice reached the top of the ruins and once the Jabberwocky was in position she jumped and raised the Vorpal sword high.

"Off with your head." Alice cried out.

The sword then hit the neck of the Jabberwocky and cut its head off. The head then rolled down the stairs until it reached the floor of the battle field this made everyone to stop fighting.

"Kill her!" The Red Queen shouted.

"We follow you no more, bloody big head." A card guard said.

"How dare you, off with his head." The Red Queen ordered.

The card guard looked at each other and one by one they dropped their pikes and then the chess pieces guard did the same. Then suddenly Chessur took the crown from the Red Queen and placed it on top of the White Queen's head.

"Iracebeth of Crims your crimes against Wonderland are worthy of death." The White Queen said in a angry tone. She then took a deep breath and calmed down. "However that is against my vows therefor your banished to the outlands no one is to show you any kindness or ever speak a word to you. You'll not have a friend in the world."

"Majesty, I hope you bear be no ill well?" Stayne asked.

"Only this one Sir Ilosovic Stayne, you are to join Iracebeth in banishment this day till the end of Wonderland." The White Queen said as a card guard chained their hands together.

"At least we have each other." The Red Queen said smiling.

Stayne looked in horror he then pulled out a knife and was about to stab the Red Queen. But then the Hatter threw a pin which stabbed his hand making him to drop the knife.

"Majesty, please kill me." Stayne begged.

"But I don't owe you any kind kindness." The White Queen said walking away.

Then the card guards took the Red Queen and Stayne as they shouted at each other. The White Queen then walked up to the Jabberwocky's head and pulled out a vial and put some of its purple blood into it. While that was going on Sora noticed that Isa had disappeared.

"Hey where's Isa?" Sora asked.

Suddenly Isa came down from above and slammed his Claymore into the ground creating a shockwave that knocked everyone off their feet. He then knocked Alice out and picked her up and looked at Sora, Riku, Kairi and King Mickey.

"It looks like you have brought peace to this world, but your victory has a cost." Isa said. Sora then noticed that Isa also had the Red Queen's fan in his hand. "It would same like you've noticed that it's not just the princess that you've lost." Isa then opened a Corridor to Darkness and entered it. Sora and Riku tried to enter it before it disappeared but failed.

"They got away again." Sora said slamming his fist on the ground.

"Don't worry Sora we'll find them and free them." Kairi said placing a hand on Sora's shoulder.

"And if you find the princesses give them these." The White Queen said handing them six vials of the Jabberwocky's blood. "The blood of the Jabberwocky can send the drinker back to their home world."

"Thank you." Sora said putting the vials in his pocket.

"Guys, I think we should head to Radiant Garden and plan our next move there." King Mickey said.

"Then let's get going." Sora said.

Sora, Riku and Kairi then summoned their Keyblade armour and King Mickey, Donald and Goofy disappeared in a beam of light. Sora, Riku and Kairi summoned their Keyblade gliders and flew into the air and long side them was the Gummi ship. A portal opened Sora, Riku and Kairi and the Gummi ship entered it.
