Welcome to Gaia! ::

Zack decided to act out at a later date, right now there were at a loss. Gregor was unconcious, and the queen controlled her clones. He may've been playful and mischieveous, but he knew when to pick his battles. He went up to the Alice's, being a replica of Shadow, almost, he knew he'd be able to affect them. "Hush, Now is not the time to fight. As much as I'd love to, stand down," he said calmly to them, staring into Allice k's eyes. "You know what happens when you jump into battle's recklessly. You are our saviors, you jump, we protect, people die early. Hold yourself," he said to them, possibly harshly, but they needed control.

Dominic about to act and as quickly as he could he made ice appear around The Dark One's feet. He knew it would probably be to no avail, but he was damn well not going to stand by while another Shadow got destroyed.

James ran towards them, lightning striking behind his heels. Electric jumping wildly over him as tears fell down his cheek. "I shall protect my fair maiden he whispered to himself as he tackled the queen. His hand aimed at her heart. Sparks jumping from finger to finger. "Release them!" he shouted in her face, tears falling slowly.

The Dark One quickly snapped, picked up the brooch and put it aroud the clone's neck. He snapped again and appeared next to the rea Queen. He pointed at James, "You, go away." he waved his hand once and an invisible force sent him flying back. He picked the Queen of Spades up and put an arm around her protectively.

Catapiller frowned and stuck the tip of the Sword of Light into the ground. He knew that fighting would be a bad idea at this point and refused to allow anyone else to get killed.

Lillith groaned slightly as she was tackled to the ground by James. She stared up at him before smirking lightly. "Oh? And what of this fair maiden does thou wish to love?" She smirked before snapping.

Hearing the snap, Cyrillia ran to Lillith, her sickle at the back of James' neck, still giggling manically the entire time. "Shall we now dance my dear knight.

Isabella, as if told through some mental voice, ran in front of the Dark One, her arms out to her side, as if protecting him. She said nothing but tears began to form, showing that the caged Isabella inside of her body, was weeping at this event.

Britania felt her broach leave her body, her eyes changingto the same sky-blue color they always were. She then heaved a sigh of relief before staring down at the note someone had given her. She then smiled before looking on to Jaclyne, who's sword was at the ready, and ran over to her, trying to take off the broach.

As Jaclyne saw this, she growled lightly to herself, smacking her hand away. She then took her sword and aimed it right for Britania's throat. "Pick thy allies now Britania...or you shall die like our enemies..." She hissed, her grip tightening in the sword slightly.

Soon after, Britania felt the broach be slipped around her neck once more, causing the dark blue color to glow from her eyes once again. "My apologizes...master..." She then said to the Dark One before sighing, taking out a large staff appeared and she grasped it quickly, propping it up to the side of her.

Lillith gasped as she felt the lightning strike through her body, causing her to lie they for a moment before the corruption swirled itself around her, changing her into her new form. She then cackled brightly as she then began to form balls of darkness in her hands, sending them upward, to cover the sky in a sea of darkness.

When Cyrillia saw these actions of his, a smile began to form on her lips before her broach glowed brighter and she stopped. She then giggled dementedly before throwing her chained-sickle at him once more, controlling it to strike him rapidly as she grinned the entire time. "Then shall us dance!"

Isabella then appeared in front of Dominic, her eyes still vacant though still glowing a brilliant blue. Pulling out her newest weapon, she stared up at him before smirked darkly herself. She then lunged forward at him, aiming for his chest. "Die!" She shouted as she swung it at him violently, trying to land a hit.

Britania then smirked at Jaclyne before walking over to her, whispering something in her ear, that caused her to reveal a wicked smile most foul.

Jaclyne then lunged forward, her sword in hand, towards Zack. Although the Cheshire Cat had weakened the control of the Queen's power on her, she still had a darkness that was eating up her soul from inside. She still had a bloodlust that needed to be quenched, and she was now willing to kill Zack to fullfill it, even though she honestly didn not wish to.

Jaclyne only smirked as she kept up her offensive attack, her eyes staring into his as well. Her broach had a scratch on it, which dimmed the light coming from it, but not so much that the spell would wear off altogether.

Isabella growled in frustration before setting her blades on fire, now smirked devilishly to herself. She watched his control with ice, and with her control of fire, they were the perfect match to go against each other.

Cyrillia was about to throw the final blow that would end his life before the Cheshire Cat intervened and destroyed the crystal on her broach altogether. Coming out of her trance, she dropped her sickle, to the side of both of them, holding her head with her other hand. "Wh-What happened?" She said softly to herself before looking down at James, blinking lightly. "I-I...James..." She said before she began to cry, quickly falling to her knees and hugging him tightly, crying into his chest. "I-I...I'm so sorry...James..."

As Jaclyne felt the broach be ripped off from her neck, the control over her being broke as well. She then felt herself be pulled into a kiss, herself blinking rapidly. This was the second time Zack had outwitted her to kiss her, and this angered her. She then broke it and slapped him, herself blushing a light pink the entire time. "What in bloody hell is wrong with you?!" She repeated from the first time he did it to her, herself growling lightly from under her breath.

Isabella continued to slash at him with her weapon before she dislocated it, breaking it in half so it was easier to manuever, though there was still a chain that attached them together. "Why won't you die?!" She growled at him, continuing to attack furiously.

Cyrillia then stopped crying before she wiped her tears away onto her sleeve. She then looked down at the long dress she had been wearing and sighed heavily, before tearing the fabric around her mid-thigh, making it more manuverable and such. She then looked up at him, still in his arms, smiling playfully at him the entire time. She then giggled softly before hugging him. "Thouest has saved thy's pitiful soul...thou's princess is indebted to thee..." She whispered to him before staring into his eyes the entire time.

A scream was then heard from above, where Lillith held Britania in her arms, a blade to her neck. "To all who oppose the rule of the corruption, hear me!" She yelled to everyone, Britania whimpering in her arms, crying at this point. "Surrender now or this one will die! The only one who has broken through the corruption!"

Zack looked at her, then at the ground. "I'm sorry," he said, before hearing the sound of an arrow. He saw it flying for her. "No," he said softly before a wall of earth flew up to intercept the arrow. "I just..." he placed his hannd on where he'd been slapped. It was definately red, he could tell from the heat. "I needed to know it was you and that I could snap you out of her trance," he said. Knowing it was her from her, for a lack of better words, fiesty soul and attitute.

Dominic saw her switch from one to two and he decided to use some math as well. He froze her feet to the ground quickly and stepped 10 quick steps back, leaving him out of reach of her swings, just barely. "Death just doesn't sound fun to me," he replied casually.

James held Cyrillia before hearing her beautiful words. He was now just barely tearing up. He stared into her soft beautiful eyes. "Then I have but one request of thee. An eternal love shared with thee," he said, softly, but truely. He then heard the scream, saw the arrow, and heard the words. "No," he whispered just like Zack and a small spark of electricity jumped from him to the arrow. The arrow snapped into three pieces.

Cheshire saw Britania free from the curse, but in Lillith's arms. He glared at Lillith. "Where is Wonderland now?" he whispered to himself, trying to think of a way around such tradgedy. A way in hope, in joy, in bouncy cheer, much like the old hatter and old hare. He smiled. "That's it," he whispered to himself. He bowed to Lillith. "I believe our queen has forgotten something," he said loudly and playfully so all could hear. "Today is her unbirthday," he said in the hatter's old voice, copying him as much as he could. "And a very merry unbirthday it should be. Ecspecially since she shares it with The Dark One," he said, his voice still the early hatter's. Tears begining to come to most wonderland creatures, remembering the olden days of the original Alice. "Would thy royal quen like cake and a song?" he asked, knowing 'A very merry unbirthday, to you' by heart. Cheshire was a good keeper of memories.
