When in the Country of Hearts (a alice in the country of hearts fanfic)

Time keeps slipping and allies

Clara pretended to sleep, but inside, she couldn't even bring herself to close her eyes. She was scared. No one was there to comfort her like they had in the country of hearts. She had forgotten this pain knowing that she beared her own problems on no one's shoulder but her own.

In other words, the country of Hearts had worn down her outer, colder shell.

She was now just some helpless girl needed to be rescued wherever she went. The thought brought Clara's hand up to her shoulder, where a large bullet scar lay. She knew it wasn't their faults, but her own.

"Where are you guys.." she whispered into the night as if hoping they would come to her. But nothing came. "No." She denied the fact. They were always with her, perhaps a part of her was still cold from her child hood, or it was denial, but she hatched a plan that night.

~~~~~~~~~~~Lé fabulous person skip!

"Damn it where is she!?!?" Peter blew up, slamming his fists into the table where he was handcuffed to. The rest of his - he dare say - friends, were handcuffed separately in different rooms. This gave a few enforcers trouble when it came to Dee and Dum's turn to be torn apart with a violent thrashing. He smirked at the memory.

"You will not get anything out of me." Julius stated coldly, crossing his arms and sitting back in his own seat.

"Wait-I'm where? WOT. I thought I was at a castle just a second ago." Ace played dumb for the time being. That is, until he got his chance to escape with the others. When the police came to questioning Vivaldi, she did not speak but seven words.

"The rules are set. Do not interfere." The rest followed her lead.

"Clara is the outsider."

"She is special; irreplaceable."

"Do not interfere,"

"Or we will defeat you with the force of ten thousand tanks." (A/N: WITH THE FORCE OF A GREAT TYPHOON!! Heheh. Mulan reference muthafuckas.)

"I wonder what's up with them. They are the strangest terrorists the chief has ever brought in." A man with slick, brown hair stated to his colleague. He nodded, staring through the glass at the scared anthro cat man.

Poor boy, he thought, those terrorists thought it would be fun to surgically place cat ears and a tail on his body. And those other two men, they both had rabbit ears. He felt disgusted at them for taking away other's humanity.

"I just talked to the local doctors, and they said the surgery to remove the ears and tail will be in five days." He sighed, taking a sip of his coffee. What a long day. Now who was going to break the news to the hostages?

"Do you wanna tell them, Greg?" Greg shook his head, setting down his cup and folding his arms.

"I think you should. You brought that one in specifically. I'll tell the other two." With that, they split up.

"Hey.." The policeman cooed, trying not to scare the boy. Boris flinched, and scooted his chair as far away as possible, but he was handcuffed to the table. He would, if need be, kick the man unconcise, but right now, all he wanted to do was feel Clara in his arms again. He was dying to know she was alright.

"No, no..calm down. I won't hurt you." The man smiled sadly, showing he had no weapon on him. "See? I just came to tell you that in a couple of days, those ears and tail are gonna come off and you won't have to worry about it anymore." He tried to say this calmly, but it only made Boris more scared.

"No!" He yelled at the man.

~~~~~~~~

"You can't do this to us!!" Peter yelled at Greg Ashe sighed and walked toward the door.

"This is us! Our friends aren't terrorists!" Elliot pleaded, but to no avail. Greg shook his head. these poor men were so scared, they'd keep their torture. He walked back to Elliot's table.

"Why..?" He asked desperately. "I don't understand it all. Someone did this to you, and you don't see anything wrong with that?"

"That's because no one put these on me, they were their from the beginning!" This got Greg's attention. "We are from the country of Hearts and this is NORMAL!! I am Elliot March, second in command to Blood Dupré, the man with the hat, and Peter White works for the Queen of Hearts, Vivaldi!!" He explained, hope still cling to his irises as Greg sat back down, listening to the madman's ramblings.

"Boris Array is the Cat that lives at an amusement park owned by Gowland, and we came here against our will!!" Elliot continued, his voice continued; not faltering once.

"We wish to return home, but we need Clara! Please believe me!"

Greg didn't know what he just heard, but he felt, in his instincts, that this was the truth. Pulling out his tape recorder, this caught Elliot's attention, and he leaned over to sniff it.

"Tell me everything." Greg pressed onward.

"Greg, I told you to tell the hostage about the news, not record his psychotic dreams." The other policeman shooed Greg away as the tape played.

"Please just listen, Rob!" Greg pleaded, "they all say the exact same thing! That can't be a coincidence!"

"Because the terrorists want you to think that! There is not such a thing as different dimensions where they came from."

Julius could hear the yelling from his own room, and he finally was able to reach the watch in his pocket.
"Come on, come on!" A shadow appeared, it's eyes a silky grey compared to its body. It looked at the clock for but a second then took it in its own hands.

"Ask him!" Greg burst the door to Julius open, and the two policemen became flabbergasted at the growing shadow.

"Now! Stuart!" Julius demanded, and a young boy appeared from the shadows in a pair of large overalls and striped shirt. He broke the clockmaker free, and he raced out between the two stunned men. The first person he ran to was none other than Blood Dupre himself. He stood I front of the man he's hated for over a century.

"Hello, Julius."

"Blood, we must work together to survive this world." He two policemen helped them unlock the rest of the people.

"We'll help." They stated.
