Story for: Kira_Bane2, hope you enjoy!

_______________________________________________


A young five year old boy looks into an alley and then up at a young woman standing before a boy slightly older than her who is covered in blood and has the bodies of his former friends around him. The spying young boy doesn't pay much attention, but instead looks at the young woman dressed in a red and black Lolita dress. Her hair spills over her shoulders as she leans down to look closer at the bleeding boy, her red bangs hiding the side of her face from his sight.


"You did well. I knew you could kill of them without me. Now I can take you as my sacrifice." The young woman says in the most innocent voice he has ever heard. It makes his heart skip a beat at the gentleness in her. It makes him want to be held gently like that.


"Yes, Lady Alice, make me your sacrifice." The older boy says with a relieved smile. The young boy watches Alice let the older boy go before her hand pierces through his chest. The older boy screams in pain as his heart is pulled out and then instantly dies as it is torn completely away from his body. The younger boy gasps and falls back as he watches Alice slowly devour the heart.


His brown eyes widen in shock as Alice looks directly at him, her eyes a bright crimson and her sclera a pitch black color. She grins at him and he shivers in fear. The young boy runs away, not looking back, but also hoping that she would follow him. She doesn't.


The young boy reaches his home disappointed and is greeted by his mother. He doesn't care as much for her attention on this day. He greets her and then walks over to his bedroom to distract himself until dinner.


Once inside of his room, he can't help but think about what he saw with a smile. He keeps seeing the young woman whose innocence remained even after she killed someone. He closes his eyes, replaying everything and a certain part of what he heard gives him an idea.


"That's right, she likes it when someone kills another person. Maybe that way I can have her sacrifice me." He thinks to himself as he gets off of his bed. He rushes downstairs to see his mother preparing dinner. He smiles as he builds up ideas in his head.


"Jesse, could you set up the table, please?" His mother questions him as she cooks up some meatloaf for the both of them. Jesse simply get to work and sets plates, glasses, forks, spoons, and even knives, but he goes a step further and hides a much sharper carving knife behind him as he watches his mother put food in the plates. He walks next to her and stabs her thigh. She screams in pain and reflexively pushes Jesse away. She drops to the ground and slowly crawls away.


"J-Jesse?! What are you doing?!" His mother questions, crawling towards the landline phone on a coffee table in the living room across the dining room. Jesse stands up and teases his mother by walking slowly up to her. She reaches for the phone and dials the police.


"I have to see Lady Alice. I want her to take me with her." Jesse says pouncing on his mother who tries to call for help. She doesn't make it and all the operator hears is screams of pain as Jesse stabs her repeatedly until she dies.


Once the police arrive they see the bloody five year old looking up at them with a smile.


"Lead me to Lady Alice so she can take me away." He says before the police apprehend him and get ready to deal with his mother's dead body.


12 years later:


"Say, since you never wanted that little brat, can I sacrifice him?" Alec questions as Alice sits in a coffee restaurant drinking hot chocolate and eating chocolate chip cookies. She looks up at him annoyed.


"There are so many useless sacrifices I don't want, so I don't give a damn. Why on earth are you asking me for permission?" Alice questions putting her cup down. Alec smirks and pulls out an image of a young man with brown skin, dark hair, brown eyes with glasses over them, about six feet tall, and dressed all in white. Of course in the image the white clothing is tainted with blood.


"This little boy adored you when he was five. He grew to hate you when you wouldn't come to him when he killed his mother or when he was put into an asylum for the criminally insane." Alec says and Alice smiles.


"Oh, that brat. He is not worthy of being a sacrifice. If you want my garbage then take it. I don't give a damn, but don't forget, you're still my second to first target." Alice says as her eyes turn red and her sclera becomes black. Alec's eyes do the same and he simply smirks, leaving the young woman in the restaurant full of clueless humans.


"Yes, of course I'll take your desperate garbage, because they want you dead more than I do, but of course I'm the one that shall have you. There can only be on of us, and that isn't you." Alec says before adjusting his sweatshirt and heads over to the area Hare told him he found seventeen year old Jesse.

"My goodness you're quite the mess, aren't you?" Alec questions as he looks down at Jesse who lies in a pool of blood, completely staining the back of his clothes in blood. Jesse groans and opens his eyes slowly and looks into Alec's reddish-brown eyes.


There is something that seems familiar about him to Jesse, which makes him slightly angry as he glares at him. He hardly ever remembers unimportant people more than two days or less. He glares at Alec and sits up and then looks at himself.


"No way! Not again!" Jesse yells out and then looks over at Alec who is smirking.


"Wh-what happened?" Jesse questions him and Alec looks towards the forest they are outside of.


"You killed somebody, probably a left over trauma after waiting so long for Alice." Alec says. Jesse's eyes widen at the fact that Alec knows Alice. Now that he looks at him, he seems to have the same blood red color in his bangs like Alice did.


"How do you know her?" He questions as he calms down a bit, and makes himself cold towards a grinning Alec.


"Lets just say she's a nuisance to be rid of for me." Alec says with a simple shrug. Jesse stands up and looks himself up and down. He is unable to deny that he didn't commit a murder. The proof is all on his clothes, but he can't seem to find the body of the person.


"You despise her, don't you? She left you behind after all. Never came for you." Alec says, picking at Jesse's old wounds. He glares harshly at him and clenches his hands tightly.


"I want her to pay for never coming for me." He says and Alec chuckles and his eyes change.


"Well I can help you get your revenge, all you have to do is let me give you the power to do so." Alec lies so perfectly that Jesse can't see though the lie. He looks into Alec's inhuman eyes and realizes that he is a being just like Alice. To him they seem awfully similar that it's mind blowing.


"Well?" Alec questions holding out a knife. Jesse looks at the knife and lowers his head.


"Make me Death." He says. Alec keeps from rolling his eyes at the name he chose for himself and stabs him through the chest. Jesse screams in pain as Alec keeps pushing the blade until his hand and heart go through his back.

Jesse stands alone in a shed full of mirrors. He stands up and looks at his changed form. His skin is now a charcoal color, his eyes a golden color with no pupil, he puts his back hoodie over his head and leaves the shed.


"Thank you, Master Alec." He whispers with a smirk and picks up a katana stabbed into the dirt. He picks it up and leaves into the darkness to quench his thirst for blood. To learn about himself before he aims for Alice.


Alec watches from a distance and chuckles.


"Humans are foolish creatures. He truly believes that power will help him kill your counterpart?" Hare questions Alec as he serves him tea. Alec takes the cup from the black rabbit and drinks it content.


"It's amazing how much one can lie to a human and they'll believe you if you offer the right thing with the right expressions. This will keep me entertained for awhile." Alec says before he tosses the empty cup aside and leaves in the opposite direction Death took.


Alec smirks at his increasing army to rival Alice and finally make her one with him in the most painful way possible. With the desperate humans that longed to be sacrificed by her, but he took them instead. Made them seek revenge against the Red Queen.
