OMG! I NEVER in a million years would have thought that people would actually review my story! *continues to rant and thank reviewers*
Anyways, I had some trouble writing(and then rewriting) this chapter (mainly because this all in Jay's P.O.V and Jay is based off of my friend in real life) and I apparently can never get her quite right…=_=;;; So please don't hate me if it sucks!
Okay, now for the disclaimer: I DO NOT own Heart no Kuni no Alice!
Everything (except Jay and Ray) belongs to QuinRose.
Chapter 3: Meet the Bloody Twins!
Jay's P.O.V.
UGHH! I'm bored again. After Gray had shown me to my room, he had to leave to find Nightmare. He said that it would probably be best if I stayed in my room to rest up after everything that had happened.
At first I thought it was a good idea, but after a few minutes in my room, I realized I had way too much energy to sleep. So I tried to tire myself out. I tried running around in circles, jumping on the bed, and after that I tried pacing back and forth around the room, and hid in a really big wardrobe to see if it would take me to Narnia.
When that failed I went back to jumping on the bed. So now here I was lying on my bed with nothing to do. Even after all that I still wasn't tired! God maybe I shouldn't have had that big bowl of salt and vinegar chips and that doughnut this morning…
I sighed and rolled over onto my stomach. I glanced over to the nightstand next to my bed, which held my 'Finn the human' backpack, glasses, and domo hat on it. I had taken them off before running and jumping around. I sat up and took my backpack off the nightstand and opened it up.
Inside I had about five stuffed animals (all made by me), my ipod, three roles of duck tape, a pair of scissors, and of course the ever so handy: 11th Doctor Sonic Screw Driver!
I sighed again and took out the sonic and began pointing it at random things. Eventually, that got boring too. I growled in frustration and rolled around on the bed trying to think of something to do, since it was clear now that I wasn't going be tired and to sleep anytime.
Wait a minute! I stopped rolling on the bed and face palmed. For God's sake! I'm in Wonderland! Why the hell am I rolling around on a bed trying to think of something to do, when a whole new world is ,literally, right outside?!
I got up, shoved my sonic back into my bag, plopped on my Domo hat and glasses, and left the room.
I looked down the corridor trying to remember which way Gray lead me up here. I shrugged. Oh well. It's not like I'm prone to getting lost, that's Ray's job~
…
After a good hour or so of wandering around, I finally found the staircase. I sighed with relief. I never, in a million years, would have imagined that I, Jay Kat, of all people could get lost in a Tower, but apparently, I did.
I headed down the stairs, only to find myself on another floor that looked exactly like the one I was just on. I groaned in frustration and repeatedly banged my head on the nearest wall.
"Umm…miss?" I heard someone asked. I stopped trying to give myself a concussion and turned around to see the person who was addressing me.
"Oh good, people!" I said excitedly. The girl standing behind me looked confused for a moment, and then started to laugh.
"Oh, I see, you were lost then?" She asked. I nodded.
"Yes, I almost never get lost, but this hell hole like freaking maze!" I whined. The girl nodded her head in agreement.
"Yeah, I got lost pretty easily to, when I first came here, I can guess you're new here?" I nodded. My eyes widen once I realized who I was talking to: Alice Liddell.
Wow, she doesn't look any different than she does in the manga. She was wearing her signature baby blue dress and matching bow. She also looked about two or three years older than me.
"Hey, you have eyes." She awed, only just now realizing that. Way to go super sleuth… I thought sarcastically.
"Yep, I take it you are Alice Liddell?" I asked politely. She nodded. "Well, I'm Jay Kat, one of Wonderland's new outsiders!" I proclaimed proudly. Alice stood there for a moment staring at me in disbelief.
"You're a new outsider?" I nodded. That's what I just freaking said.
"How did you get here?" she asked slowly. I took note of the dark aura that was now surrounding her.
"Umm…I fell down a rabbit hole that opened up beneath me as I was about to flop onto my bed…why?" I asked nervously. She probably thought I was kidnapped and forced into this crazy world the way she had been…
Alice seemed to brighten up after my explanation. "Oh, good. I thought you might have been kidnapped and brought here by force or something."
I nodded slowly and then remember that I was still lost. Stupid Jay! It's important to remember these things!
"Oh, umm by the way, Alice, do you know how to get out of the building?"
"Yeah, sure. Hey, have you been to any of the other territories yet?"
I shook my head. "Nope, I was in my room for a few hours. Got bored. Decided to explore. And then got lost." I said explaining my day so far. She nodded.
"Well, I was just about to head over to the Hatters Mansion to barrow a book from Blood, your more than welcome to join me." She offered.
Who was Blood again? Oh, that right! The dude with the really cool top hat/mafia boss! Hmm…I debated on it for a few moments. As I recall reading in the manga, he didn't really like outsiders, but then again I heard that he was completely different in the games…Meh, he couldn't be that bad.
"Okay~"
"Great, let me just grab my book . I'll be right back." Alice said before darting down the hall.
…
The walk to the Hatters Mansion was extremely long, so to pass the time, I asked Alice what the residences of the mansion were like. She hesitated.
"Well…first there are the Bloody Twins, Dee and Dum. They're the gatekeepers of the mansion and have a tendency to kill any living thing that moves, and they slack off a lot. They can cute and sweet some times, but DO NOT be fooled.
"Then there's Elliot March. He's Blood's second in command, and loves carrot dishes. But just to be on the safe side, don't call him a rabbit. If you do, it's more than likely he'll try to shoot your head off.
"And finally we get down to Blood Dupre, the lead of the Hatter Mafia. Blood can be pretty moody at time, and I can tell you right now we didn't get along at first. But now we're on much better terms, and he can be a gentleman every now and then. But other than that, that's all you need to know about the Hatter's." Alice concluded. I nodded taking in all the information.
"Oh look we're here." She stated as we approached the gates to the mansion. Standing at the entrance of the gates were two boy around the age of 14 one was wearing a blue uniform while the other was wearing red, both carrying large axes in their hands.
They were both looking really bored until they saw us approaching.
"Hey, look brother!" the one in blue (Dee) stated and poked his brother.
"Hey it's onee-san!" the boy in red (Dum) replied. They ran up to us and then hug/talked Alice to the ground.
"Hey you guys. I'm surprised to see you two actually working for once." Alice laughed. They got off of her and pouted.
"Yeah, Boss and stupid chicken rabbit told us that we had to stand around and guard the gate all day while they're out," Dee started.
"Or else boss says we'll get our pay cut again." Dum finished.
"Shouldn't you two be guarding the gate anyways?" I deadpanned. They both looked up only just now realizing my presence.
"Hey onee-san? Who's this?" they asked. Alice sighed as she got up.
"This is Jay Kat, she's an outsider, like me." Alice introduced me.
"Sup'." Their eyes widened.
"Wow! You're an outsider like onee-san!"
"That's so cool, now we have two onee-sans!"
"Umm actually, Nightmare told me that another outsider was brought here as well. But he forgot where she landed and what her name was. Actually… the only thing he did remember about her was that she wore a lot of green."
"What?!" Alice shouted. "Why didn't you tell me that?"
I shrugged. "When I introduced myself I did say 'one of Wonderland's new outsiders,' enthuses on the words: one of""
Alice face palmed and I laughed at her reaction. Alice was going to be so much fun to tease.~
"So what you're saying," Dee started.
"Is that now we're going to have three onee-sans?" Dum finished.
"Brother this is going to be so cool!"
"I know brother, now we have two new onee-san to play with us!"
Alice stiffened when they said 'play' and I understood why. Despite their appearance, these two were probably some of the most dangerous role-holders in Wonderland, and they didn't get their title The Bloody Twin' for nothing.
"Hey, Jay-san, wanna see our collection?" Dee asked sweetly. "Yeah, its really cool." Dum added just as sweet. Oh God! They're giving me the puppy dog eyes! Curse my weakness for cute things!
I looked over to Alice who was shaking her head vigorously 'no'. I then turned back to the twins and flinched. I couldn't say no, they were just two cute.
I sighed in defeat. "Fine."
"YAY! We show onee-san and Jay-san our collection!"
"Yeah, we just recently got some new treasures today from playing with those cards at the castle, you'll really like them~"
Alice paled looking slightly green. I shrugged. So they killed some dudes, big deal. People kill each other in our world all the time as well. I didn't really make too much of a big deal hearing the news that someone killed another person. It happens no matter where you go, sure it's sad and all, but that's just the circle of life for you.
I sighed. Man, I'm being way to depressing today…I thought bitterly as we all walked into the mansion.
…
The twins opened the door to their room and lead us inside. I stared in awe at the amount of weapons they had. If Ray were here, she'd be in paradise…I sweat dropped just imagining how my friend would react if she were here right now.
Now that I thought about it, my friend was a lot like Dee and Dum when it came to things like knives, guns and blades. I was going to get her a green pocketknife for graduation last year, but my mom didn't want to be responsible if Ray were to ''accidently" cut open the throat of the first teacher who got on her nerves, so instead we got her a nice shiny pair of neon green scissors and a role of white duck tap with neon green mustaches on it.
That was probably her favorite graduation present…considering that she goes nowhere without either object…
I was snapped out of my thoughts when Dee and Dum laid down a pile of knives, guns and, explosives. I grinned and walked over to the couch where Alice was sitting on and picked up one of the grenades they had lying on the table.
"Cool." I said. Alice stared at me like I had just said we were all going to be blown up by the Death Star any second now.
"What?" I asked defensively. I was a pyromaniac, of course I like things that explode into a fiery ball of flames. She just shook her head and pinched the bridge of her nose like she was having a headache.
I shrugged. Meh, fiery explosion just aren't for everyone~
…
After a few debates with the bloody twins on which weapon was the coolest (I said that a sonic screw driver was the best and won), Alice and I decided to leave, beings that Blood and Elliot hadn't come back yet.
Alice said that we'd probably come back tomorrow as the twins walked us to the gate.
"Well, that was fun. Can't wait to come back." I told them and they nodded.
"Jay-san a lot of fun!" Dum said.
"Yeah, Jay-sans not afraid of guns and grenades unlike onee-san." Dee added. Alice looked slightly offended by his remark but let it go.
In the end, Alice actually started to look somewhat interested in our conversation, once I told them about the sonic. We asked Alice that if she was in a situation where she needed a weapon to survive she said that if she really needed to, she would pick to sonic. I went on a fangirling rampage after that.
Alice sighed and shook her head. "We should be going no-"
"Hey you little slacker! What the hell do you think you're doing!" an angry voice shouted from behind us.
And there you have it, chapter 3 of Two Girls in Heartland! Sorry if it wasn't that good, like I mentioned before, I'm not that good at writing in Jay's P.O.V. but still, R&R
