OMG finally found the motivation to write. and when did i last update this? about a month ago? yeah thats pretty late... srry!
Cold and hard cemented walkways, tall buildings which could be well compared as the Clover Tower, and the little blinking lights in each of the windows illuminated a sense of loneliness and longing in Alice's heart. "This world looks really different from Wonderland," shuffling her eyes from the strange vehicles to the transparent people who were just staring blankly at nowhere, her mind was filled with awe and curiosity. She stopped walking and stared at a transparent girl sitting by a traffic light pole, beside her a bouquet of flower was laid quietly. Soon noticing Alice's stare, the ghost looked at her and smiled sadly. Alice quickly turned away avoiding eye contact. She used to be scared of ghosts or any supernatural horrors, but for some reason fear was not the feeling she felt when she met the girl's eyes; it was more emotional and poignant. Perhaps, the concept of death and supernatural are different in other worlds just like my world and Wonderland…?
Peter looked at Alice and grinned. His mind was spinning in a different way. There are no lechers and perverted stalkers bothering Alice, which meant it was his perfect chance to show his love to her. He stealthily raised his hand in attempt of hugging her with full force, but stopped himself. He knew from long experience that Alice always had a troubled face when he was closed to her. Assuming that it was from the adorable shyness the girl possessed, Peter misunderstood that it was just one of Alice's way to show her affection. Poor lovely Alice must be feeling quite lonely in this germ infested world. I should approach her in a gentlemen-like manner! Coughing to change his pace of procedure, Peter spotted a certain orange object and spoke to Alice, "But there are some similarities my dear Alice, like that thing over there. He looks like he can be your friend, whale." Pointing his index finger straight at a lion doll, Jimmy and Alice looked at it in interest.
Jimmy shot a dirty look at Peter and critically examined the doll, "My name is Jimmy thank ya very much. And I don' wanna be friends with a guy that looks like an idiot."
The lion turned around in response to the insult and yelled, "Hey I heard that! Do you even know who I am? I am the almighty omnipotent Kon-sama!"
Jimmy looked at the bush nearby and replied dully, "Sorry never heard of em' before."
"Well now you do so kneel before me, the cool and strong Kon-sama!" Making a supposedly cool pose, Kon glanced down at Jimmy, waiting for the immediate apology and declaration of undying servitude for him.
Now looking at Kon with a really bored look, Jimmy sighed, "You know that I'm a whale so I don't have a knee to kneel down, right?" Jimmy raised his fin and waved it around to make Kon see, provoking him to be angry.
Kon rampaged around in frustration, "Shut up and just do as I say…" As he approached to Jimmy, a shadow engulfed the two animals making them look up in irritation. Jimmy's jaw dropped as Kon's fabric felt like it was loosening and all his cottons were blown away. Before them was a vicious monster with a horrible-looking mask.
Alice, who was sitting on the bench, noticed that everything was absolutely quiet and walked over to check the two animals, "Jimmy? Don't tell me you left to have some fun with your new-" Her eyes also caught the monster and stood frozen in place. The monster slowly turned his attention from the animals to the girl and licked the ghostly white lips with its red, gigantic tongue.
Gulping, Alice couldn't take her eyes off the horrible creature. Her forehead streaked a cold sweat and her voice was stiff and trembling, "Jimmy…what is that thing?" Jimmy just stood there and soon rolled over in a belly-flop style. He stuck out his tongue and lay there motionlessly. Alice mentally shook her head; if just playing dead would help this situation then she would be more than glad to roll on the ground, but it was unlikely from how the monster stared at her hungrily.
Instead of Jimmy, Kon answered the question, "Uh…i-it's c-called Hollow." He laughed nervously and raised his hand to motion a wave, "H-he is a-a-actually very obedient if you just be gentle, right?" In this instant, Kon's cotton hand was bitten by the Hollow's sharp teeth. Popping his eyes out Kon screamed, scrambling to get his arm out. Alice screamed too; she attempted to save him, but was pushed down by Peter.
Snuggling his head to Alice's stomach, the rabbit shot hearts in the air; something that was obviously out of place in this dangerous situation, "My dear Alice! I was looking for you~. Don't make me worry, my sweet heart."
Alice half crazily looked at the man and shrieked, "PETER THIS REALLY ISN'T THE TIME FOR LOVEY DOVEY MOMENT!"
"Huh?" Peter turned his head to look at the Hollow and paused for a short while. The monster frowned at the cotton and fabric taste in his mouth and soon spit Kon's arm out, releasing him and throwing him over to the bushes. The white haired man took off his glasses for a second and wiped the transparent surface and soon put them back on and smiled sweetly, "Oh, it's just a vulgar germ infested animal. You don't have to worry, Alice. Now let's continue with our date in the park."
Alice nearly fell over to the ground, she was absolutely shocked in how Peter could stay calm when danger was evident, "Peter! Look at that thing one more time! It's not just a germ infested animal, it's a MONSTER and when you look at a monster, you run!" Alice grabbed Jimmy and Peter and made a run.
Peter blushed at the sudden contact and took out a gun, "My lovely Alice, this kind of ugly thing I can just kill it off."
Alice looked at him as if he was a lunatic; there was no doubt that his screw was loose. How can a mere gun kill off a 30 feet tall monster? "Are you crazy? Use your common sense for once. You're gonna get killed within a second!"
Suddenly, she tripped on her own feet and her balance became unstable, "Ah!" Sensing a chance to snatch his prey, Hollow bellowed once and protruded his long atrocious arms towards the girl.
"Alice!" Alarmed by Hollow's sudden action, Peter embraced Alice and pushed his hind leg to jump, avoiding in a nick of time from the monster's grasp. At the same time, he shot one of the lamp lights, ultimately falling down and landing right on top of the monster.
Alice soon turned to Peter and worriedly looked at him, "Peter! Are you alright?"
Peter only had crooked glasses as he immediately stood up and examined his precious for any injuries, "Alice! Are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?"
A small scratch was discovered on her right leg. The bruise made the skin turn into a mixture of blue and purple and a drop of blood was starting to trickle down to her legs. The man's face soon turned from pale to blue to red in anger, "Alice… you have an injury on your cheek."
Nervously observing the changing colors in her companion's face, Alice hid her knee under her dress and replied, "It's nothing."
Peter bit his lips and growled, "….Kill that bastard."
"Uh, Peter?" Gulping, Alice's fear of Hollow soon directed towards Peter's ominous aura. Even the pain on her legs was easily forgotten by the man's killing intent. As she was timorously looking at his blood red eyes, Peter suddenly took out his white handkerchief and lifted Alice's skirt. The brunette's white cheek filled with color in embarrassment, "Kya!" She formed a fist and prepared herself to punch the rabbit's face, but stopped when she realized her knee was bandaged neatly. Alice raised her head and incredulously looked at Peter's upset face.
A horrible roar was heard and the couple shot their heads towards the monster. The Hollow was already free from the fallen lamp light and was about to attack head on. Peter's ruby eyes narrowed into slits and raised his gun to aim at his target, "How dare you hurt my lovely, angelic, beautiful Alice! Die monster!" Suddenly, his gun changed into a katana and his clothes turned into black kimono. His attire was a total duplicate of what Ichigo was wearing.
The foreigner felt her jaw drop a 100 feet down underground. Without taking her eyes off of the sudden transformation, Alice spoke to her whale friend, "Um, Jimmy? Why did Peter suddenly turn into like that orange haired guy from the other time?"
Jimmy was hiding behind the bushes trying his best to avoid the monster as much as possible, "I heard that roleholders can do similar powers that this world's people can do."
"Is it one of those rules or something?"
"No, it says in the guide," Seeing that his human friend had an unimaginable expression, the whale held out a piece of paper from the bushes and gave it to Alice.
Alice grabbed the paper and scrutinized it in disbelief, "I thought I shred that paper into pieces!"
"I have an extra just in case. It was written on the backside. You really have to check front and back, ya know."
Alice raised her arms and yelled, "Great, what am I supposed to expect when it says if you are looking for more information and then blah you're not gonna get any hahaha!"
Jimmy looked at her cautiously, "Uh, yer ok?"
Dropping her arms, Alice was speechless for a second, but soon replied, "Sure I'm fine. I just feel like I was numerously ridiculed and mocked by a piece of paper." Jimmy was silent which made Alice even more irritated; silence practically meant agreement. Sighing, she stuffed the guide in her pocket and looked at Jimmy, "And so the people in this world are also a freak who can take out a katana out of the spot?"
"I guess, remember that guy with orange hair?"
"Yeah, I think his name was Ichigo or something. He was swinging around that large katana." Alice remembered the huge weapon and frowned. She never wanted to see Ichigo again.
To speak of the devil, a certain man appeared right beside Alice, "You called my name?"
Popping her eyes and scrambling away from the sudden ghost-like appearance, Alice looked at Ichigo in disbelief, "Woa! When did you come here?"
Ichigo smiled sheepishly and replied, "Just now, think of this as part of the Shinigami powers." He paused to look at Alice's reaction and noticed that the confusion in her expression slowly dissolved. Satisfied, the Shinigami opened his mouth to speak only to be interrupted by a sudden crushing force on his face.
"ICHIGO~!" Kon, covered in snots and tears, jumped on Ichigo's head and smothered his goo to the man's cheek.
Disgusted by the sudden snot attack, Ichigo peeled the lion away, "Kon! Don't put your snots on my clothes!" He stretched his arm to pull his kimono sleeve and tried to wipe the liquid from his face.
While Ichigo concentrated on taking the goo off of his face, Kon looked as if he was offended. He pointed where his arm was bitten by the Hollow and yelled, "Damn you Ichigo! How come you didn't arrive earlier! I got bitten by a Hollow, you know? I am injured!" Alice looked at the injured arm. Although the doll was truly injured, she couldn't find neither the sympathy nor the sadness. It may have been because the only injury Alice saw was the emerging cotton and torn fabric; she couldn't imagine the seriousness in the situation.
Ichigo only glanced at Kon's arm and sighed, "Ah yeah, yeah. I'll bring you to my sister and she will fix you up."
Turning his expression into a horrible one, he looked as if he encountered another Hollow and grabbed the man's leg, "No! Not her! I will be drowned with ribbons and pink fabric!"
"Ah, just shut up, then I will take you to Uryuu!" Irritated and annoyed by Kon's overreaction, Ichigo scrunched his brow, hardened his fist, and landed a blow on Kon's head. After making only a slight crying sound, Kon fell to the ground in agony. Only making a heavy sigh, Ichigo turned to look at the girl, "Anyways it looks like my Shinigami powers are not needed here."
Jimmy trudged over to the fallen doll and poked him with a stick. Noticing that Kon was not responding to Jimmy's silent provocation and, instead, just cried in despair, the whale smirked and turned to Ichigo, "Whatever 'bout your weird emo powers, but can ya stay away from us? Seriously, we don't want to be close to anybody with that dangerous jumbo on your back."
Ticked off by one animal after another, Ichigo crouched down in front of Jimmy in hopes of intimidating him and retorted, "It's S-h-i-n-g-a-m-i, not emo power. By the way, don't worry about the weapon on my back, I won't use my zanpakuto since you're friend defeated that Hollow." Jimmy only eyed Ichigo suspiciously and turned to poke Kon some more.
Satisfied by the silent reply, Ichigo looked at the situation between the Hollow and Peter and stated, "So he is actually a Shinigami like me, huh?"
Alice, only now remembering about Peter, turned to look at him. The Hollow was on the losing side and it was only a matter of time until Peter completely destroyed the monster. She, then, half-halfheartedly replied to Ichigo's statement. She wanted to avoid as much conversation as possible with this guy, for this was a possibility that he might find out that they come from another world and it would be too troublesome to explain the whole situation to him, "I don't know what you are talking about, but Peter is not emo like you."
Frustrated, Ichigo shouted, "Aaah! Why does everyone say emo? Like I said, it's not emo, but it's Shinigami!"
Jimmy sneered at Alice's reply and quickly made his revenge, "Whatever emo, just stay away from us because yer making things difficult for us."
Ichigo glared at the whale in annoyance, "What is so difficult when I only came here to supposedly beat the crap out of that monster over there and since when did I ever become emo?"
Kon, finally recovered from his agony and doomed himself to accept the help of Uryuu, stood up from the ground and froze in place when he looked at the fight between Peter and the Hollow. Shivering from the gory scene, he walked in trepidation and tugged on Alice's dress, "Um…excuse me, pretty lady? Can you do something with that crazy guy over there?" Alice looked down at Kon and then to Peter. She instantaneously understood what Kon was scared of.
Covered in blood and pieces of blackish red chunks, Peter's red eyes glowed in fury red. His grin was fit to be called a true death god as his blade repeatedly stabbed the lifeless Hollow's body, "HAHAHAHA! You think this is over? Then you got totally wrong! I'm gonna make you pay for what you have done to my dear Alice! HAHAHAHA!"
Alice quickly looked away from the horror and sighed. She didn't want to get close to a crazy murderer, but she also couldn't help, but feel sorry for the dead monster and called out, "Peter, come back over here."
Hearing the maiden's lovely voice, the white haired man's murderous trance broke and his ears perked up in joy, "Yes my dear Alice!" He quickly dropped his katana and took out his handkerchief and wiped his face and hand scrupulously before dashing over to his master's side.
Ichigo looked at Peter weirdly and stated, "He's your loyal dog."
Alice did the sign of the cross for the now fading Hollow and replied, "An annoying one too."
Ignoring the conversation, Peter raised his arm and opened his palm, "Hey, Alice I found this when I defeated that ugly monster." He was holding a heart shaped golden key. After Peter wiped the blood that was covering the object, it sparkled even more as everyone gazed at it in awe.
Jimmy exclaimed in elation, "That's the key to go back to Wonderland! Good job dog-rabbit!" He jostled Peter's white hair and gobbled up the key.
Peter, who was planning to give the key as Alice's present, grabbed Jimmy and cried angrily, "Don't call me dog-rabbi-." Peter's words were cut offed and the Wonderland members suddenly departed from the world, Bleach.
Ichigo and Kon, who were left stranded in an empty park took about a minute to realize that the group disappeared. Kon suddenly screamed in random words as Ichigo, who was still silent, punched him to keep silent. After another minute had passed, he finally yelled out in the night sky in confusion, "…WHAT THE HELL? DID THEY JUST DISAPPEAR OR DID THOSE GUYS DO A HIGH LEVEL SHUNPO* THAT I COULDN'T SEE?"
And that's the end of the emo paradise 3rd chapter. Hope u enjoyed it ^^
