~Ame's P.O.V

(Later that night)

Ace, Deuce, Trey, Grim, and I have left the library after our unexpected visit with the headmaster. As it turned out, Ace agreed to challenge dorm leader Riddle to a match. But, since Deuce has stepped in to battle alongside Ace, it's going to be a two-on-one fight. So I kept wondering on how it will end up. We were on our way back to our dorms to get some rest for tomorrow's match. Trey had gone back to Heartslabyul while me, Grim, Ace, and Deuce went back to Ramshackle.

(Ramshackle Dorm- Our room)

Grim tries his best to get some sleep despite the collar around his neck. But, it makes it hard for him to get comfortable.

The mirror above the fireplace in our room starts to glow again and the bright light engulfs me.

As the light dies down, my eyes open and I find myself in a different location.

"Another strange dream?" Realizing I'm not in the Rose Maze; I take a look around at my surroundings to see the inside of a huge unusual courtroom. I sit in the front row of what appears to be a jury box along with the other creatures from wonderland.

I look up and see the Queen of Hearts sitting in the judge's bench as Alice stands in a lecturn in front of her with card soldiers standing on both sides.

The courtroom has banners with red hearts hanging from the ceiling on both sides, the floor is black with red outlines along with a red heart on each tile, and a long red carpet rolled out in the middle of the room. Behind the Queen of Hearts shows her royal emblem with red curtains, there's a spiral staircase around the witness stand, and spotlights as they cast their light on only the queen and Alice.

"What's happening here? And, why am I in this trial?" I ask myself softly in confusion.

Something must've happened that made the Queen of Hearts put Alice on trial and it's still underway. Alice did something to make herself grow temporary bigger and she points her finger at the queen as she towers over her.

"Your majesty, indeed. Why you're not a queen!" Alice mocks her as she begins to shrink bit by bit, returning to her normal size. "You're just a pompous, bad-tempered, tyrant!"

I quickly look over at the Queen of Hearts who's rubbing her hands with a resentful smile. "Fufufuf. What did you say?" She asks and laughs lowly which sends a shiver down my spine.

My face grows with fear by the look on the Queen's face causing my knuckles to turn white from gripping the edge of the jury box. Not to mention the bead of sweat rolling down my forehead.

"Oh man, you should not have said that!" I mutter meekly and the Cheshire Cat appears on top of the Queen's head.

"She said you're a pompous, bad-tempered, tyrant!" The cat recites what Alice said to the Queen before laughing and disappearing into thin air.

"Hiiiiiiih! OFF WITH HER HEAD!!!" The Queen of Hearts' face grew red as a rose and becomes enraged by her insult. She roars out loudly in anger and commands all the card soldiers to surround Alice.

The card soldiers follow her command and they begin to rain down on Alice before going after her as she starts to flee out of the courtroom.

"Alice, run! Get out of there!" I lean over the edge of the jury box and call out.

"You heard what Her Majesty said! Off with her head!" The small male known as the King of Hearts shouts as they continue to chase after her.

As I watch the scene unfold, I suddenly beginning to feel like I'm being watched. I quickly turn back to the Queen of Hearts and I gasp when I see her staring directly at me. Our eyes locked as I meet the Queen's gaze and a red aura starts to surrounds her.
