Heart No Kuni No Juli

Chapter 2

My eyes open and I see a weird rabbit person. I scream, moving away. "WHERE'S ALICE AND LORINA?!" I cry out. I hope they're alright. Oh my gosh... What if they realize I'm... gone?! Maybe I'm asleep?

I can't remember... anything. Anything except the time spent with my sisters. But where am I? "Did it... work?" the man asked. "What work? Oh dear, did you... poison me?! Drug me?!" I cried out, looking at my hands as I shook.

"No, no! Is Lorina dead?" the man asked. My eyes widened. "No! Why would you ask such a thing?! Did she... die?!" I felt tears form in my eyes as I sat up. "No, no. She isn't dead, she's just fine..." he said, kneeling down.

He held a bottle up to me. It was a lovely glass vial, the cap was shaped as a heart. "Will you drink this?" he asked. "I'll give you a deal, Mr. Bunny Ears. You give me information and I'll drink the liquid..." I glared at him, standing up. "Fine, fine... I'll do so..." he replied, standing up, waiting for questions.

"Where am I?" I asked. "You are in Wonderland... Well, Country Of Hearts..." he replied. "Okay... Your name?" I sighed, not liking how this was going to end up. "Peter White, the white rabbit. But you may address me as Peter... and you?" he asked.

"Juliet Liddell. Why am I here?"

"Because I brought you here."

"That isn't a good answer, Mr. White."

"Peter. I am Peter."

"Pete."

"Peter."

"Fine, fine! Have it your way, rabbit!"

"Ah, please call me Peter. I'm not mad, I'm just disliking this..."

"Fine... Peter."

"Ah, thank you!" he hugged me.

"Get off of meee!" I whined. I pushed him away. "Now, the strange liquid. Please tell me it is poison so I don't have to deal with you..." I glared at him.

"Of course it isn't poison! I love you to much to kill you!"

"We just met..." I sighed. "Now, the bottle!"

"Oh yes..." he said, taking it out of his pocket, handing it to me. I took it and opened it, drinking the bottle.

"Now you can't leave..." he said.

"What?"

"You can't leave this world... until you fill that bottle now..." he grinned.

"But how do I..." he walked off.

"How do I refill the bottle..." I mumbled. What did he mean? Why am I even... here? I tried following him, but I just ended up... somewhere. I look up at a mansion and smiled. Oh thank goodness, someone can help me! I ran towards the gates and my eyes widened as I drew closer.

There near the gates were twin boys... They looked so sad... But what I feared was... they had weapons. Weapons little children should never hold. I was close enough to hear their conversation pretty clearly.

"Brother... I can't believe big sis is gone..." the red one frowned.

"I know... I miss onee-san already..." the blue one replied.

They then looked up and spotted me. "Who's that, brother?" the red one asked.

"I don't know, brother..." he replied. Then he smirked... evilly. "Lets kill her to bring our spirits up..."

Kill me?! My eyes widened as I turned to run away. I screamed as I started to run, only bumping into someone. I looked up and my eyes widened. Alice's ex-boyfriend was here too? "O-Oh my god..." my jaw dropped.

"Boss, what's the hold---" a dude with rabbit ears and orange hair looked at me. His purple eyes stared into my soul... Oh dear... I'm in a lot of trouble... I can already tell this...
