wonderland part 2

the queen nods "thats true.. well is there anything you would like to talk about?"
yuki sits outside of the castle waiting for the duchess.
alice wakes up and looks around. "i wonder where everyone is.."

"not really. If you don't mind I should leave. Clock as requested my presents tonight. Even though he does not have a role I do not wish to keep him waiting." She smiled politely as she stood up.

the queen nods "ok then.. oh could you tell clock i said hi... also alice was talking to me about clock. do you think he would like to become the clock tower manger?"

"What can a clock tower manager do for us. normal people are also important, but I will send him me regards." She smiled as she walked out the door. Once outside she headed towards his home, a building just behind the tower. She had finalized the spell needed to bring Natsu Alice back to life. This were going to start to change soon. She didn't notice yuki sitting outside.

yuki follows the duchess and smiles.
alice gets up and walks outside. she looks around "i wonder where yuki, leo and boris are..."

Opening the gate to Cloaks house she noticed Yuki "You didn't have to follow me." She smiled.

At that moment the front door opened and Henry came running out to great her. "Boris told me you can do it! Is that true?" Boris quickly came out of the house to gets Henry, "Yuki, what are you doing here?" He asked.

yuki blushes lightly and looks away "i told leo i would keep you safe.." she looks at boris and sighs "am keeping her safe!" she storms off away from them.

Picking up Henry and letting the little usagi sit on her shoulders she walked into Clock's house, "I didn't notice that I had a shadow." She explained to Boris as she handed a book to Cloak, "I'll only do it if you want me to?" The room had a few normal people and a couple of role holders, all waiting to see if they could bring the girl back


Two hours later:

Alisha returned home and clock went back to work. It was a success, his Alice was back. Her hair was cut and dyed red. she walked along the streets with the Cheshire Twins who were busy filling her in on everything that had changed in the past eight or so years, including the new Alice.

Yuki walks back and finds that alice is gone. she sighs and runs to find her.
alice sighs and sits down "i don't feel so well..."

Natsu wondered off with out the twins. They were right a lot of things had changed, all because of the new Alice. Including using her real name instead of her stage name and change her appearance, so that if anyone remembered her, then they would not be able to recognize her. She wore black dress pants and a white button up top with the first couple of buttons undone. Around her neck she wore a black necklace that people would call a collar.

After walking for a few minutes she notices a girl crouching on the ground in pain, "You okay hun?" She asked looking down at the girl.

alice blinks and looks at her "am..am fine.." she stands up and bows "i haven't seen you before are you new in wonderland? my names alice.." she sits back down and sighs lightly.
yuki runs up to the twins "wheres alice i lost her! have you seen her?"

"Natsu Kazawai. Been to busy real to go outdoors much. but I've been here for years." She looked out at the street, "You could say I'm like Dodo, avoiding people, well not any more. Need a hand?" She asked offering her hand for the girl who she now knew as Alice to get up.

"We were catching up with some old friends that we haven't seen in a while. I thought you went back to spend the night at Alice's place. But where ever she is I'm sure she is fine." Leo said to Yuki.

yuki looks at him and blushes "fine... i'll wait at home for alice... if you see her tell her to come home!" she walks off without saying goodbye.
alice smiles "thank you.." she takes her hand and gets up "well am glad your out and about now natsu!" she giggles lightly. "now if only i could get clock out.." she sighs lightly.

"The old man is busy with his work. Besides he still interacts with people, which is a good thing." She said remembering all of the people that were at his house waiting to see if hey could bring her back. From what she was told, they were the rebellions. Against the Queen, "So don't sweat, after all I came out without your help so i'm sure the old man can do the same." She said using the nickname she gave him years ago due to his white hair and because that name had annoyed him.

alice smiles lightly "that would be really nice to see him... i hope hes not mad at me for still being alice... i really don't want him to forget the old alice i just want everyone to be happy..." she pokes her pointer fingers together as she talks. she looks at natsu "am sorry for rambling on i hope i didn't annoy you or anything.." alice suddenly winces in pain and holds her stomach.

"You sure you're alright kido?" She said looking at the girl worried, ["don't worry about the old man. If that is what is giving you the pains, then forget about him. He does catch up with others from time to time. Yesterday he had a few people over and he seemed to be in a good mood." he looked around to find a better place to take the girl to "How about sitting down?" She suggested.

alice smiles weakly "am fine really its not clock.. i've been feeling weak all day..." she sits down and holds her stomach "i hope no ones hurt or anything... maybe am not doing a good job at keeping everyone happy..." she looks at the ground with a hurt look in her eyes.
yuki was getting worked up back at the house. she turns into kid yuki for the first time since she was in wonderland. this just makes her more mad "this is all leos fault!" she runs back towards leo and hits him "your a jerk leo!" she frowns at him and tries to make herself look big in her kid form.

"Have you had any bad foods?" She said randomly, out of all the possibilities in her head that could have caused the pain food poison sounded better then some of the others, "Even if it's noting it's still better do and get the doctor to say that, not you hun. come on."


Leo looked at the usagi in front of him, "What is your problem, you have lost Alice and we have lost someone too. Alice has been here long enough to not get lost." He said looking at yuki attempting to keep his cool. A man never hits a girl. Boris looked around to see if he could see any of the missing Alice's.

yuki blushes more "its not that! your so stupid!" she stomps her feet with tears in her eyes.
alice looks at natsu "i'll be fine we don't have to go to a doctor i don't want to bother anyone..." she really just didn't like the doctors.

"to bad, that's an order." She said as she grabbed Alice's wrist and walked towards were the doctors office was . She stopped when she noticed a crowd and the familiar long hair of Leo. the cat seemed to be on the verge of snapping, boris watched with out a hint of emotion, which from what she had observed was normal and the crying noise came from an usagi girl. "Maybe after i get him out of that mess. Leo looks like he about to snap which would so ruing his good kitty image." She said to Alice while pointing at Leo, "you said you like helping people right? Maybe you could get the girl to stop crying." she suggested.

alice smiles and nods she walks over "why are you crying..." she stops and looks at usagi in shock "yuki..." she looks between her and leo worried "yuki whats wrong?"
yuki turns and runs to alice crying into her dress "leos stupid and mean.. i don't want to like him anymore!" she climbs into alices arms "i wish i never liked you more than as friend leo!" she turns and cries into alices shoulder.
alice looks at yuki sadly she never seen her so upset. "yuki please calm down you don't mean that...." she hugs her tightly "am sorry if she made you mad leo.."

Natsu was about to be the hero and drag Leo out of there,"you really are a flirt." She said looking at the shocked Cheshire cat, "Look bunny, this isn't really the place to discuss things like this. It's bad on both of boy's reputation as the Cheshire cat. Maybe we go to a place without an audience." She glared at the by standers giving them the 'if you dare tell a soul loo, i will personally make you life hell' look, "unless you are after attention." She said remembering some of the people in her past who would throw a fit like that in public so that others would feel sorry for them. "Think before you act." Her look softened on Alice, "If I can't take you to the doc, promise me you will go yourself. If you do I'll grad Clock out of hiss home or that annoying tower of his?" she hoped that would be enough to make Alice go and see a doctor.

alice looks at natsu "am really sorry yuki normally doesn't act like this i think she just got to upset.." she sighs and looks at the ground "ok i'll go to the doctor..." she gets out of the crowd and quiets yuki down.
yuki eventually stops crying and looks around "am sorry i made a sence i didn't mean too.." she looks over near leo and sighs she hops out of alices lap. she walks over to leo looking at the ground "am sorry leo...i didn't mean to make such a sence i hope you can forgive me.."

He ran a hand trough his long hair, "fine. but first what is wrong with Alice?" He asked.

Natsu let out a small sigh of relief that no comment was made about clock. Judging from the closeness of bunny and Alice, she guessed that Bunny was Yuki, the Queens pet. She wondered if the girl really like being that. but it didn't matter, someday with the help of the others she will take the role for that is what she had agreed too.

yuki blinks and looks at alice "somethings wrong with her..." she jumps nervously "i didn't know there was something wrong with her...."
alice smiles lightly seeing yuki apologize to leo "thats good.." she lays her head down and sighs.
