Hello. Yes it has been a while (ages ago actually). Apologies for my long time absence, I somehow had a writers block for a long time and missed my chance to upload new chapters. I'll try to finish this story, but no guarantee for other stories (-A-;) I'm so sorry!

"Alice, wake up."

I heard a voice calling for me. It was from a man who I just recently got acquainted with and also the source of all this chaos.

"Am I in another world?"

I slowly opened my eyes. Heath wasn't supposed to be in the world of Katekyou Hitman Reborn. It should be just me, Jimmy, and Elliot. I had to think for a second what we were doing just before I lost conscious. We were in the middle of a battle; a useless one which holds no benefits whatsoever. I had to protect the cowboy and got bumped in the head.

I don't remember Heath coming into the scene nor did I remember being in this dark ambiguous place. It seemed sort of similar to the dream realm, the place where I always come after I fall asleep. Does Heath have the same power as Nightmare? Or did Heath take me to another world while I was asleep?

"It's not another world. Although I can't say that you're still in Katekyou Hitman Reborn."

"What do you mean?"

"To put it simply, after I became like a maniac. My other personality decided to stay in your dream. Your dreams are full of memories. I can feel your sadness, anger, happiness…"

A shiver ran down my spine. I-is it just me or I feel the same stalker-ish vibe coming from Heath? Was he like this before?

"Uh that's a little too personal to go around and snoop into people's memory you know. If this is my dream then if I wish I can make you come with me to the real world, right?"

"That's possible but…"

"I don't think it's the right time just yet."

My body froze all at once. Why is there two Heaths side by side? Don't tell me…

"Black Heath is here! No way are we gonna go back to Wonderland just like that. Find all the Roleholders, then we will meet again. HAHAHAHAHA."

"What the!"

The space around us suddenly started swirling like a black hole. I can feel some kind of force pulling me into them. Isn't this similar to the hole I use to go to other worlds?!

"'Till then Alice," After smirking for a second, Black Heath suddenly grabbed his other half and disappeared into the dark swirling space.

"I friggin' hate this hole!" Letting my body go, I closed my eyes and prayed for a safe landing.

Soothing, elegant aroma of flowers. In depths of consciousness, Alice realized the scent floating in the air, prodding her to wake up. Such rich smell always reminded her of a certain man. Calm, leveled voice with a hint of laziness always told her how sneaky the man was, especially when that same voice held an unspeakable authority. It made her restless, annoyed to some extent, and never failed to make her angry when he pushed it too far. However, he was still tolerable compared to few other men in wonderland. Smart, duplicitous, composed demeanor; perfect for a mafia boss.

Slowly opening her eyes, she was met with the elaborately furnished dark ceiling. For a few minute, she just stared at the wall, not willing herself to do anything further. She was so phased out, numbed with dizziness. She knew she had to do something, something about the key and the little boy and…..

Instantly, she woke up and franticly looked around the dark room. That's right; she went straight into the battlefield like a dumb idiot and tried to save that boy. Sharp pain pierced at the back of the skull and she groaned. The world was still spinning around like she was riding on one of Gowland's merry-go-round.

"How are you feeling, Alice?"

The familiar voice caught her attention and raised her eyes to see him.

"Blood"

The room was too dark to her liking, was it night? Blood just sat in the dark room, drinking his tea. The little lamp barely lit the book he was reading. He looked sophisticated, just like an educated nobleman.

Who would believe that he is actually a mafia boss?

Tearing his gaze from the book, Blood looked at her, "You don't look well. Would you like a cup of tea?"

There were a million questions Alice wanted to ask, but for the time being she just wanted to close her eyes and remain them shut. Rubbing her head to ease off the headache, she muttered, "Yes please."

Silence filled the air as the only source of sound was the pouring of the tea. Whispering a thank you, she drank from the tea cup and almost let out a sigh. It was soothing, hot liquid seeping and warming her entire body.

"Lavender tea. It is said to have a healing property and eases your distress. I was pleasantly surprised to find such a high grade quality tea in this forsaken world."

Taking the next sip, this time Alice couldn't hold the sigh, "It's helping me. A lot." It was making her relaxed, something she hadn't felt in a while.

Blood walked towards where Alice lay and lightly brushed a strand from her face. Such a gentle gesture always made her guards up, but it was not the case this time. Was it from the relief of seeing him or because of the scent of lavender?

He withdrew his hand from Alice and said, "Fortunately, you only had a slight concussion. This is my room so feel free to rest up all you want."

"Do you know where Elliot and Jimmy are?"

"I haven't seen them. You were the only one that was in Hanabusa and my room."

Hanabusa?

"Oh and I found this paper right by your side."
