"No.... If that's who I think it is.. Then we're very much in the presence of a-"
[b]He suddenly fell silent [/b]
English
-
"Well may I introduce you to the legend herself. The one mad enough to slay the beast and end the queen." Alice wakes up groggy and let's out a groan. [u]"I'm not that heavy of a sleeper freaking cat. Now what do you want? Pit me against some other nightmare threatening to destroy this world?"[/u] "Oh no, we're just here for the sword today" Alice sighs getting up to her feet. "[u]and let me guess he dragged you two into this?[/u]"
-
"I don't even know what I'm doing here to be perfectly honest with you."
-
"Well considering he's having you grab that blade I can figure one of you guys want to stop something that otherwise would be unstoppable. Some gargantuan beast? Another person trying to destroy Wonderland? Or maybe one of my relatives are still alive and just as crazy as I was." Ash walks up to the woman, looks as her for a second. "[u]You don't look like the girl in the books, but are you alice?"[/u] "Well, yes, to be honest I didn't know they wrote a book about me. Anyways you didn't answer me. Why's he having you grab that thing again?"
-
"We're going after a beast that wants to be a god. We have to defeat him."
-
"Really now? I thought I tore right through the toy maker when we fought." She says mistakening it for one of the people he had to fight. She looked a bit confused thinking back to that battle and was certain she slayed him. "[u]no, it is a man by the name of Anthony. He went mad and is currently causing chaos through out where we come from.[/u]" Something about the conversation caught Alice's eye. "Right and what? He lost his family in a house fire?"
-
"Well he lost his family, but I'm not entirely sure where or how."
-
Ash was surprised about the fact Alice knew that and it took her a little off guard. "How do you know that?" "[u]wait? I'm right? No, no. He was dead, I- how?[/u]"
-
"Well its a sob story, it doesn't take many guesses to get it right."
-
Alice's face became pale as her face filled with shock. Her hands were shaking after hearing this and almost fell over. "I snuck out one night when I was still just a child in an ordinary world. I came back and my house was ablaze. I just ran and ended up falling. Next thing you know I was here. Anthony was my father's name"
-
".... " [b]Royal looked down at the ground, his own face pale [/b]
-
Ash seemed to pitty the girl and hugged Alice as she stood frozen in place. "I... may not know much about family life first hand. But I'm sorry. I can't say for sure that we can spare him. He's... dangerous" Alice just stood there in Ash's embrace still in shock over the discovery of what had become of her father. "[u]I... barely knew him...[/u]"
-
[b]Royal didn't know what to do. He was never equipped for these sorts of emotional things. He stood awkwardly, looking down at the ground [/b]
-
Chesh finally builds up the nerve to speak. "Now, I know we had our... differences per say but you did save Wonderland twice so you have my respect. You said you barely knew the man and yet we know he's causing destruction to no end as we speak. Does that sound like the Alice I know? Does it even sound like someone you would want to know?" Alice shudders for a second, trying to form words then finally exhales and gets a grip on herself. "[u]Well, dammit... you know I hate you, you freaking cat... one of these days I'm going to rip the royalty right out for you and claim that throne of yours[/u]." Chesh puts back on his antagonistic grin figuring he gotten through to her. "Well it's good to see you back to your old self. I welcome you to try and take that off my hands."
-
"Would it actually be that difficult to take you down? I mean there's no guard here is there?"
-
"Before when I was just nothing more than a whimsical cat, it wouldn't have taken too much to take me out of the picture. If I had to challenge the jabberwocky or the toy maker and was more like this at the time. Well, the only reason the jabberwocky wouldn't die is since my claws aren't Vorpal. As for the toy maker. Well he would make a decent scratch toy."
-
"Aha I see, I see. Maybe we should introduce Anthony to his daughter then[spoiler][/spoiler]
-
Chesh starts scratching his head with one of his large hands. Thinking about how that would end up. "Oh the daddy issues that would create. Though I think it would be more the father than the daughter. Daughter issues? Well I guess those issues would be resolved rather swiftly with a big magical sword to the stomach but maybe a few issues in the beginning" Ash just sits there confused as she doesn't quite understand things relating to family due to what she was. She just agrees not too sure what else to really do.
-
"If we hand over Alice, get them to meet maybe he'll back off. After all, he is looking for her"
-
"That, that could work too. We may not need it after all."
-
"Or, we could get someone to pose as her... Then take him out with the sword once they get close enough. We have a few options."
-
Chesh suddenly takes Alice's physical apearence though the dress was more reminiscent of his clothing. "That could be arranged. Maybe get them together and keep the blade in case. It would be a fairly useful assurance" Ash becomes curious about the blade. As to why Chesh seems to look at the blade like it was the answer to all the problems. [u]"Why are you so insistent that we find this sword of yours. Is it truly that special?"[/u]
-
"Ash, the Legends that swirl around it are many. They all have one thing in common. Pure, Raw power."
-
"There is a reason why a simple delirious girl fight a monster as she did. The sword, enjoys being used. Cherishes a challenge. It wants to fight more than its fighter. Win more than its winner. Swing harder than the swinger. It's made simply to be better than the one carrying it. Especially against that which is trying to destroy"
-
"See? Power. Raw power. A sword like that..."
-
Edited by ALIAS-F4LS: 1/30/2017 9:45:53 PM"So I see. That does sound rather impressive." Chesh walked up to a thick coating of vines and started clawing them apart. Behind them, an old gate stood still sturdy against the canopy. He pulled out a key he wore under his shirt and put it in the slot. A set of words began to write themselves on the gate. A riddle. [i]I am third in the sea, second on land, and also the second you find in a hand[/i] Was written on the wall. "What a strange method of security." [spoiler]Can skip this part buuuut it just seems Wonderlandy for something like this to happen[/spoiler]
