((howdy! Small greeting just to say, that if I play him in any strange way that isn't correct. Go ahead and tell me and I'll change posts no problem. Ninja has given me a good amount of info, but i don't want to step on too many toes ^_^))
Rhoule the King of Spades was bored. A dangerous state of being for him. His finger ran along the rim of a glass that was filled a red substance that tasted boring. Putting his finger tips to the bottom glass, he pushed it slowly towards the edge of the table. “How long has it been since I last visited with my subjects?” he asked with a glance to the room people that looked nervously to each other. They knew…They had to of known. Standing up Rhoule, with grand sweep of his hand that sent the glass to the wall shattering it into a million pieces, as he bellowed, “Answer me!” Then the room exploded in noise all trying to give the answers all at once, plus an explanation for each answer.
Sigh he plopped down onto his throne. “Idiots,” he said looking to where the shards of glass laid scattered about on the floor. They sparkled in the light of the day. Some red with red twinkles and other still clear as the crystal it had been. “See who are all of our guests,” he said to his newest toy, who got up from where she had been sitting and started to curtsy as his hand raised to run his finger through her hair. “Be quick about it,” he hissed as he gave a tug to her locks making her face crinkle with pain. Letting go roughly, he stood.
Chuckling he walked towards the door leading to his private chambers where he was sure that he would find the king of Diamonds waiting probably with hand open for the money he was to receive for the upgrades on his home. “We can’t wait see what darling Anna is up to now,” he laughed as he busted through the doors with some flair. “Waiting long?” he asked as he moved towards a table where glasses were ready with a black liquid. Grabbing one he took a large gulp, Now this tastes interesting, he thought as he turned back to the fair haired man.

On the deck of ship huddled two mice. One white with a soft shimmer of silver that glistened in the sun and the other was soft blonde and noticeably smaller. “It’s alright,” the larger mouse cooed to the smaller, though she didn’t have a clue whether or not her words were true or not. The crimson eyed mouse sighed softly as her small claws went through the blonde’s short fur to tickle her back. “Mymy,” the smaller one giggled though she was still obviously still shaken as she continued, “I trust you to keep me safe. He has probably already forgotten me.” Her last words almost seemed sad at the possibility that the King had forgotten her. Myrine was counting on it.
“Oh Sin,” Myrine sighed softly as the boat came to a stop. Why had she brought her cousin to such an evil place? Though Sinope never made talked much about her experience with the King of Spades, but Myrine had never really prodded much. Every time the words spade or Rhoule were mentioned her little cousin seemed to be off…Sleepy, as if she was going to take a nap. Perhaps in her dreams she was safe. Breathing in deeply she looked away to the land. Was her brother there? And if he was, did he know a way to take care of them?
“Time to change little one,” the older of the pair said as kissed the girl on the forehead. Scurrying back to a secluded area. Sinope followed quickly behind saying, “Do you think I should? I mean what if someone else recognizes me?” It was the first time that it seemed that survival instincts seemed to be kicking in for the blonde. Strangly that both pleased and discouraged her cousin. Myrine didn’t want Sinope to feel fear about the world, but then again heading to the one place Sinope had most reason to fear meant that Myrine didn’t always have to have her eye on the girl.
“I think you will be fine. Besides I think we will cover more distance this way,” Myrine’s tall and slender human form emerged from where they had gone to change. She didn’t like being flashy with her abilities to change to human form. Though such changes were normal in Wonderland. Still she didn’t like the attention. Sinope’s small blonde human form peeked her head out. “It will be a game of hide and seek then?” the small girl asked taking the hand of her cousin. “Yes,” Myrine smiled putting on a brave face for Sinope, “Hide from the king and seek out your cousin.” The girl laughed and started to pull Myrine towards the land.

((So, yeah. Welcome CuddlyDeathPrincess! XD ))
Haven grinned at Rhoule as he walked in. "Not too long. Posiedon should be arriving soon. Been awhile since all of us have been together in a room," he replied nonchalantly, having heard the chaos outside, but decided to not discuss it. "Far as my payment, I believe I've done a substantial amount of work and provided a fair amount of servants. Shall we cut the deal at keeping our peace treaty and say... 3 armed ships? Posiedon has been quite active and been interfering with my deliveries to you, which is the reason for the delay of shipments. If I had some firepower to defend my ship with...?" he offered, finding it a fair deal. He wanted the ships for delivery and nothing else. Being that his deliveries were 95% of the time to Rhoule, it seemed only just.
Haven's drink was a light golden hue with flecks of sparkling silver. Both contained endorphine releasing emotions that made that specfic king happily satisfied.

Rhoule lip started to twitch threatening to turn into a sneer. He knew Poseidon was on the approach, he had forgotten why. But the arrival of the old King of Hearts always meant some sort of trouble was brewing for him. Haven had a point though. Rhoule hadn’t been in a room with Posiedon in general for a good long time. The mere thought of that King made Rhoule want to slap someone. Where is that girl, he thought for a moment before being distracted with talk of business.
Business seemed to be a safe subject for the most part. The Spade’s King listened to his demands. They weren’t unreasonable. Rhoule knew that the payment to Haven would benefited him more than a smidge. A cruel smile crossed his lips as he leaned against an obliging table. “I get your point Haven,” he said nodding his head a little as he causally picked up another glass of the black drink. Haven had learned that deals were easily won against Rhoule if it involved the King of Spades getting something out of it too. “Three ships it shall be. Just make sure you place them in good hands. Armed ships do little against him with out being placed in the right hands.”
Snapping his fingers, as servant quickly came in the room. While the man was till bowing Rhoule commanded, “See that three ships are made before the morning.” The man gave a low bow again and started to back out of the room. “Oh, if they are not… You shall be spending a great deal of time under the castle.” The man bowed again, and closed the door. Crossing the room Rhoule, pulled out the chair to his lavishly decorated desk. “We will discuss what sort of arms you would like or will be the most harm towards those that wish harm on us later. First, refresh my memory, why is he coming? Surely he doesn’t miss my face.” Sitting he slouched in the chair, as if the whole idea of the King of Hearts in his lands were only an annoyance to him.
((Thanks ninja XD))

Haven smiled as Rhoule agreed to the deal. It would truely be a wonderful deal for both sides. He then heard the question and restrained himself from chuckling at the absent-mindedness Rhoule sometimes showed. "For a few reasons, but mainly so we may discuss how to satiate his wish for power and get him off your back. He's been a pain in your side for far too long..." he sympathetically replied. Cheshire Cat could see the meeting place being set up. The King of Hearts ship had already docked in the Spades port and sailors were exitting the ship. The King of Spades and King of Diamonds were in a room together.... It was too much fun to pass up, especially since he knew it would stir up 'Darkness' inside him, the piece of Random he had recently absorbed. "Hello Darkness my old friend, I've come to talk with you again. Because a vision softly creeping, Left it's seeds while I was sleeping, And the vision that was planted in my brain, Still remains, Within the sounds, Of silence," Cheshire sang as the melocholic dual harmony and melody emanated through the King's back room. Cheshire's body quickly following the final line, apparating before them. He was facing Rhoule, but was fully aware of Haven. "You seem awfully pissy today. Is it your time of the month?" he teased Rhoule. (( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvsX03LOMhI The song, for reference. ))

Darkness had been sulking, still unable to believe how it had been fooled, but this new prison seemed much less confined than Random's. In fact, it found itself rather liking the freedom of travel that Cheshire possessed, and while the Cat was not amoral, it definitely did not have the restrictions Random did.
"A pair of Kings to open." It smiled. "Jokers or better to win." It held a contemptuous sneer as it beheld the monarchs. "These are the creatures whose hands turn the world? Better to hang royalty from the battlements, that will truly make the people happy."

Putting his feet up on to the desk, Rhoule grumbled a little getting comfortable as possible. “How uninteresting,” he huffed looking off and out the window. “Doesn’t seem like he ever comes up with any good reason to come to me but to give him power. He had his chance with that wife of his… Its my power… Why should I let him have any.” He was more complaining to himself as he spoke those words. But then his cruel eyes looked over Haven. “We must find away to remove that pain,” he said idly though his intent was clear.
Then singing was heard causing the King to roll his eyes as he took his feet from his desk. “Damn it,” he muttered a bit. Though he didn’t get up. His eyes looked around the room waiting for that annoying cat to show his face. As he did start to appear Rhoule’s eyes stayed trained on him. “What do we owe this…” he paused a bit, it wasn’t a pleasure to ever see Cheshire for the King of Spades. “What do you want?” he said with out trying to be sociable. The cat was clearly there to start trouble. Plus Cheshire was an attention grabber and that was something that Rhoule couldn’t put up with more than a couple of moments.

Haven nodded to Rhoule's statement, then heard the eerie song and saw the Cat appear. Surprisingly, Haven was enterained by the Cat. Haven found Cheshire to be an endless source of fun. Can't beat 'em, join 'em, right? He smirked at the teasing and Rhoule' response.
Cheshire chuckled. "Thank you for the warm welcome, Rhoule," he replied, smiling widely. He then turned around to look at Haven. "It's actually you that I am here to see," he added, thinking mischieveiously, You'll get a chance to speak soon to Darkness. Do you remeber your creator? he asked Darkness, still looking at Haven intently. "Haven, it's been awhile.... I have a gift for you," he spoke softly, his voice seeming to come from the walls of the room more so than from his throat.
Darkness... began to gain a body... seperate from Cheshire.

Darkness felt itself developing a tactile form... a white suit, black shirt, red tie.Grey vines seemed to flow off the shoulders and fade as they bled down the arms. One glove black, the other, the right hand, red. Its face was still Random's, but twisted, solid black slashed with chaotic white stripes. Its eyes were negatives of each other, one black with red pupils, the other red with black pupils. It had a vampire's grin, life and foreboding death in the fanged countenance. It flexed its fingers, staring at its hands as they formed into fists, then relaxed the hands as it looked to Haven, who he knew wouldn't understand. "So... this is me. I like it. But you must understand what a short life gratitude truly has." It giggled, a sound like madman's music.It completely ignored Rhoule for the moment, relishing being the creature wrought of Haven's desire, and the instrument of what it hoped would be his destruction. It sang a song to add to Cheshire's:
"They're whispering his name
through this disappearing land
But hidden in his coat
is a red right hand"
(Great song... link in case you want the context... btw, love the reference song for Darkness, ninja... http://www.youtube.com/artist/Nick_Cave_&_The_Bad_Seeds?feature=watch

Haven raised an eyebrow at Cheshire, his smile slowly fading as he noticed the seriousness of the matter. Then he noticed the form taking shape with the look of Random's face. He glared slightly at it, still having a distaste for Random, the man with his love... he savored the fact that she would come in the palace soon. He heard the... thing speak, then giggle, which made him question it's sanity more than anything. "What is this?" he asked Cheshire, posing the question to Darkness indirectly.

Random, in the meantime, was smiling gently at Teaser, who was still a little red from embarrassment. He gave her a small peck on the cheek. "No need be red." He soothed, and she relaxed, holding him close.
"I'm glad you're all right." she returned. "You scared me there for a moment." She put a hand on his cheek. "Let's not do that again, hm?" She smiled softly.
"No. Let not." He turned to go, then turned back. "You always welcome come out and play sometimes."
"Maybe someday, little one."
Random was suddenly present behind his eyes again, blinking. "It gone." he smiled to Gale, then reached out to Jeanie. He saw the spot of blood on her neck and his heart broke. It was his hand that did that, no matter who was controlling it. His face started to crumble and he knew he was about to cry.

Anna Mellison
@;~ Blinking a few times, quite taken back at the Rabbit's sudden randomness. She swallowed visibly, as she stared genuinely hurt at him. "Mister Rabbit? What is wrong? It is me Anna, you have known me since I was 8. And it was you who led me to wonderland almost a week ago." she spoke in a soft voice that wavered in her confusion. Those Amber-brown eyes staring up at him as she tentatively took a step towards him, only to have the cane swung violently at her. This was most unpleasing in the least and forced her to block it deftly with her hands..
@;~ Tears forming in her eyes as she looked into her companions eyes and seeing them void of all recognition, and her hands smarting she let the cane go and turned away. Taking a deep breath trying to calm herself, she again spoke in that soft wavering voice. "You have done your job White Rabbit, and have brought me to the palace as your king has commanded. I will go from here on my own to see his royal pain in the butt. Please leave." Taking a step forward a pair of cards, one the 7 of spades and the other a 6 of hearts nodded and walked beside her. Wanting to look back, Anna only stiffened her back and put on a blank but imperious face as they led her into the castle, and the overtly active throne room.
@;~ Keeping her face blank and her eyes shielded from her thoughts and emotions Anna briefly glanced around as the 7 of spades spoke up to announce her presence to the court. "I Have brought Anna as you requested you majesty Rhoule." Before turning nodding once more to her before it and the 6 of hearts left the room. Keeping her back straight and her head held high, she found Rhoule's Eyes and met them as she marched forward ignoring the others there with them. "Well your royal pain in the butt, do you need of me. I have come willingly for your inspection. Than I intend to leave you when your done with me, for i have care to be here in your presence any longer than i have to." she said in a demure, polite but cold tone of voice.

Azazell & Reino
@;~ The twins following everyone into the room and silently watching the proceedings go on. Scarlet stayed silently behind Cyrilla who they lost sight of. Things were uninteresting to them to say the least. But they didn't lose track of the conversations at all. It was when they felt the burst of power that signaled the white rabbits appearence that they started. But couldn't seem to place it. Than the cheshire cat came into view making them both grin like a pair of mischievous school boys.
@;~ Reino turned to say something to Azazell and froze at the look on his face. It was lite up like a light, but facing the door. He looked just in time to see a card announce Anna's arrival and then vanish. When she spoke he had to smother his laughter with his hand. The damned woman had a way about her, even if it was just acting and a suflurious manner of being. It was so obvious that the girl didn't like Rhoule, and would rather bathe in pig muck than be in front of him.
@;~ Azazell kept his eyes on her, a frown now on his face. Eyes blank as he studied her movements and listening to her way of speaking. His loyalty to the king made him want to knock her down and humble her, but at the same time a sense of pride and a warm feeling spread through him at his 'balls'. The link he had put on all three of them was open, and knew damned well she wasn't gonna hide her emotions to king through this link. Tilting his head sideways he looked at the cat and than back at Anna. Last time the Cat made it all better in a sense of speaking.
(Lack of anything else.)

Memori To what truths do we need to attain,
xxxx And for what reason or cost should we attain these truths? @;-  Memori looked around confusion on her face when a knock and a soft female voice came from outside. Looking down at her hand now bandaged, she wondered if the Cats chaos had made a halucination become real to her. Standing up and wobbling on her legs, she made her way slowly to the door. Opening it she looked out into the now clear weather at this new person. She was rather pretty and shorter by far than herself. Smiling in what she hoped was friendship and warmth, Memori spoke softly, "Hello.....you may come in. This cabin belongs to the Cheshire Cat...Lord of Chaos....How may..I help or assist you.....today..."@;- Human language was so odd, with all the strange inflictions that they can put into their voice to convey their feelings in their messages. When it was her in her natural form, it was easy. Lifting a claw, a flash of teeth or a wiggle of the wings. Humans were strange if not tasty things. The smile on her lips was starting to hurt her as she stepped aside to allow the young miss entrance to the cabin. Fate is a cruel mistress to all who live,
But also teaches us the lessons we need to learn.xxxx Tsukikage (Sorry Idril for the long wait for a reply. IRL has been busy. I am now married and trying many things.)

Missy was taken by surprise at the height of the woman who answered the door, but her eyes widened for only a moment before she remembered herself. "I simply came to inquire if anyone was here, and if possible.. A place to dry off" She smiled, embarrassed at her need. Missy moved daintily into the small cabin, wondering in her head at the strange way the lady spoke. Perhaps she does not speak this language very often She mused, before turning to face her host. "My name is Missy, I live here in Wonderland, but I am far from my house" She spoke apologetically
((Congratualtions!
I have been immensely busy myself Andi, so it is I who must apologise
Ninja, I actually adore that song ^^ I performed a piece to it once, good memories biggrin ))
