Chapter 5: Early Morning Wake Up Calls and A Date With A Cat~
Jay's P.O.V.
I was so excited to see my best friend here in Wonderland. But I was even more excited to meet Boris. Out of all the characters for the manga, he was my favorite. We talked a lot at the tea party and right before he left, he invited me to hang out with him at the Amusement Park!
I was soooo flipping excited! I couldn't believe this was actually happening. I sighed as I changed into a nightgown. I now understand why nightgowns went out of style fifty years ago: they were so flipping annoying!
I mean really! Why couldn't they have just given me some shorts and an over sized tee? But hey, I guess beggars can't be choosers, so I put the damn thing on and hopped into bed.
They bed was so soft that I fell a sleep instantly. When I woke up I was in a world that looked like a five year old had colored. Though I'll admit it was kind of cool, but not as cool as bow ties, because bow ties are cool!
...Damnit! Now I want a bow tie…and a fez…and a TARDIS…plus Matt Smith…
"Your mind is a very…strange place." I looked up and noticed Nightmare floating above me. I frowned at him.
"DON'T INVADE MY MIND!" I shouted. He flinched and started to cough up blood. My eye twitched as I stared at the sickly incubus. What the fuck?!
"Go to a flipping hospital!" I shouted. He looked at me and glared. "No I hate hospitals! I don't want them sticking needles in me!" He shouted. I nodded my head in understanding.
"Yes, yes I know, I have a fear of needles and hospitals as well, but I would go if I started coughing up blood." I deadpanned.
"Traitor…" he mumbled using a handkerchief to wipe up the blood. I sighed and shook my head.
"So tell me, Nightmare, to what do I owe this unexpected visit?" I asked changing the subject.
"Oh, not much. I just wanted to see how you and the other outsider are doing so far." He shrugged. I nodded.
"Well, I good right now, and I pretty sure Ray doesn't mine being sucked into another dimension either." I shrugged. If anything, Ray was probably glad to be in another universe, considering she hates, no-despises ours, and almost anything in it.
Nightmare raised an eyebrow at me. "She really hates your world that much?" he asked me as I reminisced about all the times she told me about everything she hates in our world, which, was basically every day, and also how she planned to conquer and then destroy it as well…such a violent child~
I nodded. "Yep. She basically hates our reality and everything in it, well not everything, but a lot of things." I said. He nodded.
"And what about you? I see you're off to a good start with the Cheshire cat~" he smirked. I blushed.
"STOP READING MY MIND OR I WILL MURDER YOU TO DEATH!" I shouted as he laughed at my threat. "Well, I wish you all the best of luck with that, but not even Gray succeeded in killing me, and he was a professional assassin."
I raised my eyebrow. Gray tried to kill Nightmare? I have a very hard time picturing that…
"Yes, well I would suggest you don't bring it up, Gray doesn't really like to be reminded about the times when he was an assassin." I nodded my head understanding.
Suddenly the world began to crumble and collapse. "WHAT IS THIS?" I shouted and Nightmare laughed.
"You're waking up, silly. See you later, Jay~" he smiled and waved at me as the floor began to crumble beneath me and I feel into a deep, dark pit of nothing.
I sat straight up in bed clutching my chest. Man falling in a dream is never fun. I thought bitterly as I got out of bed.
I did all my morning things such as brushing my hair, washing my face, brushing my teeth, and getting changed out of the ridiculous nightgown. Once that was done, I put on my domo hat and glasses and walked in to the hallway.
I went over to Alice's room first and knocked on the door. It opened and Alice smiled at me.
"Morning Jay." She said while putting on her apron.
"Good morning fellow homosapian!" I proclaimed happily. Alice looked at me like I had grown to heads. "What? It's the scientific term for human."
Alice just sighed and shook her head, but smiled. "Slept well?" she asked as she walked over to the mirror to put her signature blue bow in her hair. I shrugged walking in the room.
"Okay I guess. Nightmare popped in to say hello." I told her and she giggled.
"I take it he's as sick as ever?" I nodded. "Yep." She sighed and turned to face me.
"He really needs to see a doctor." I nodded in agreement.
"No kidding. Hey, do you know when breakfast is?" I asked changing the subject. I was hungry, even though I was always hungry, but I was really hungry this time.
"Yeah, well just go back out to the table where we had the tea party last night." She said. "Is Ray already up?" I stared at her for a moment, and then burst out laughing.
Actually I was holding my sides and on the floor with in only a few seconds. Ray? Awake? Not in this lifetime, or the next. "I take it that's a no?" Alice asked looking slightly disturbed by my sudden outburst. I nodded as I sobered.
"Yep~ you have to wake her up by force, or else she'll probably sleep until the next millennium." I said. "Maybe longer." Alice giggled now getting why I was laughing like a madman before.
"But no, seriously though, we should probably wake her up." I said. Alice nodded and we walked over to her room directly across the hall from mine.
Alice knocked on the door, but got no reply. I sighed and kicked the door opened and saw Ray lying on top of the bed, still in her clothes. Alice and I sweat dropped. She must have been really tired last night…
I sighed and walked over to the sleeping girl and yanked her off the bed.
"Jay! You could have woken her up a little bit more nicely!" Alice wined. I rolled my eyes as Ray got up to glare at me. She stood up and held up five fingers. Four. Three. Oh! She's counting down~ I smiled and ran out of the room with the sound of footsteps fallowing me.
I really pissed her off this time. She never does the count down thing unless she's serious. We whizzed right bye Elliot as he carried a huge stack off papers, accidentally knocking him over. I took a quick peak behind me and saw she had Bert (her sharpest pair green scissors) in hand. I sweat dropped, but continued to run. Oh shit!
I knew she couldn't keep this up for as long as I could, considering the fact that she probably wasn't even fully awake yet, and that she wasn't a good runner. She'll probably just slow down and give up. I thought. But I then bumped into someone and fell over.
"Sorry "I mumbled.
"That quite alright, young lady." I looked up and saw I had run right into Blood and despite how calm he sounded, I could tell he was really pissed. "Might I ask why you are making such a ruckus in my mansion?" he asked me as I stood up.
"Well you see-'' I started but I was then tacked to the ground by Ray. She hovered above me and was just about to stab me with Bert, when she was effortlessly yanked off of me and was then being held back by Blood.
He sighed as I got up again. "Was that really necessary?" he asked. She looked him and nodded.
"Yes! She yanked me out of bed." She told him and I laughed. Blood sighed and let her go.
Ray crossed her arms to glare at me with half open eyes. Even after all that running she was still tired? What the hell does it take to get this girl moving?
Once Ray had calmed down, and forgot the whole ordeal, she let me guide her back to her room (with Blood's guidance begins on how we got lost) so she could continue to sleep.
…
After breakfast, Alice asked me if I wanted to head back to the Tower with her, but I told her I was heading over to the Amusement Park to hang out with Boris. She nodding in understanding and said that she would wake up Ray.
PFFFSSSHHHHH! Good luck with THAT! There was no way in hell Alice was going to get that girls lazy ass out of bed and live, especially after that little morning wake up call~
I laughed quietly to myself. Oh its so much fun to tease and annoy people~ I sighed putting my hands behind my head and started randomly humming Holiday. Oh Green Day~ is there truly any greater band than thee? …psh! Of course NOT!
I was snapped out of my Green Day fan girl obsessing thoughts when I heard the sound of people screaming. I looked up and sure enough, I saw the tops of the roller coasters. I also took note that the temperature was starting to rise. It wasn't too hot, but it was definitely warmer than it was back at the Hatters Mansion.
I began to pick up my pace a little and stopped when I finally arrived at the front gates. I saw Boris looking around and smiled.
Dawww! He was waiting for me~ I smirked and decided to sneak up on him. I quickly walk around him hiding behind the large crowd of moving faceless people. I then hid behind a near by trashcan, only to find that he had disappeared.
What is this! He was just stand right they're a few sec-
"Trying to sneak up on me, eh?" a voice whispered into my ear. I jumped and turned around to find Boris standing right behind me.
"Where the hell did you come from!?" I shouted. He laughed putting his hands on his hips.
"Haha! I'm the Cheshire cat, Jay! No on can sneak up on me!" I smirked and hit him playfully.
"I'll take dat as a challenge!" I proclaimed.
"Well then, I wish you the best of luck, my dear outsider!" he laughed while bowing. I flicked him and then grabbed his arm leading him into the park laughing with him.
…
It was official. I was in haven! This was the greatest park in the world! We had already road on twelve of the fastest, biggest, and longest roller coasters I had ever been on. (and I'm not even really that much of a roller coaster person) We road the bumper cars at least three times in a row, and went on the teacup ride!
Boris was even able to get me to go into the hunted house with him. At first I was like: Psh, can't be that scary, but when I came out I was clinging to Boris and officially scared for life. How the fuck did he manage to convince me to go in there again? Well, now I know what I'm forcing Ray and Alice to go on next time we come here~ Man, I'm evil.
We were now sitting on one of the park benches eating some ice cream. We had both gotten chocolate, since it's truly the mother of all ice cream flavors and began to chat about completely random things that just pop into our heads.
"So, you have a dog at home?" he asked sounding a little irked. I nodded.
"Yup! But she's just big chicken by heart." I laughed. I loved my doggie. Actually, I love all animals and can be very opinionated when it comes to them.
Boris laughed with me sounding more pleased. I can understand if he would be a little annoyed by me having a dog. He is a cat after all.
"What's your favorite ride at the park?" I asked. He sighed pondering on it.
"No way to choose. I can't pick." He shrugged. I nodded continuing to eat my ice cream. I looked over the rows of strange looking buildings and smiled.
"Hey, Boris? Can we go on that one next?" I asked pointing to the big ferries wheel. He looked at it and smirked.
"Sure." He said getting up. "Great, ferries wheels are probably my favorite rides of all time! Though I hardly get to go on them since Ray's such a chicken." I said. Boris laughed at my comment and helped me up.
I (unwillingly) throughout my chocolate ice cream, and we made our way over to the giant wheel. Luckily there wasn't to long of a line so we didn't have to wait long.
The ferries wheel spun around a few time, and then stopped at the very top. I got up, despite safety regulation, and looked out the window.
"Wow." I said in awe. From up here, you could see all of Wonderland. I smiled. This was so epic! I heard Boris get up and walk over next to me.
"Isn't cool?" he asked and I nodded.
"Yeah, the view is amazing!" I exclaimed. He laughed and nodded. "We should do this again sometime." I said. He nodded agreement.
"You should also come by some time at night, if were lucky enough to be at the top again, we'll have the best view for fire works."
"Really? That sounds awesome!" I fist pumped. "Then it's a date!" he teased. I laughed a bit and nodded in agreement. ASDFASDFASDF! This is the BEST day of my life! I mentally fan girled.
The sky suddenly changed to sunset and the cart began to move again. "We better sit down." Boris said. I did as he said and waited for the ride to end.
…
"I guess I should head back to the tower." I told Boris as he walked me to the gate. He nodded looking kind of sad. "Don't worry! I shale return my feline friend, as soon as Alice shows me Heart Castel." I declared. Boris looked at me strangely but then laughed. I laughed with him.
"Well, see ya later." He said when we had reached the gate. I nodded and waved goodbye.
"Later!" I shouted and began to make my way back to the Tower of Clover.
…
I had made it back a few minutes after it had turned dark. When I came in I was hounded with questions from Alice.
"Where have you been? Did you make it back okay? You're not hurt are you?"
"Alice, give her some room to breath." Gray stated blankly as he walked by with a huge stack of papers. Alice sighed and apologized.
"To answer your questions; I told you I was at the Amusement Park with Boris, I'm here so 'yes' I made it back alright, and 'no,' I am not hurt." I said as Alice sighed with relief.
"Sorry, I got worried when it changed to night and neither you nor Ray came back." She said. I blinked.
"Ray did come back?" I asked and she nodded. "Yeah, after I had waken her up, the twins asked if she wanted to play with them, so she decided to stay. I can only assume that she's probably staying over there tonight." Alice explained.
I gulped when she said 'play.' I recall reading; that the last time the twins tried to 'play' with Alice that they nearly slit her throat open. But then again…it was very unlikely that Ray would ever let something like that happen.
"Well it should be nothing to worry about, I asked Elliot to check up on them to make sure the twins didn't hurt her." I nodded and began to head up to my room.
"Oh, and by the way, we're going to Heart Castle tomorrow." Alice called, but I didn't respond. I was too tired.
I sighed when I finally reached my room. I quickly got changed and jumped into bed. Immediately falling into a deep, dreamless sleep.
Well, there you have it: CHAPTER 5! Hope you guys enjoyed it and please R&R
