But that's no fun for me! I took all those keys and lured all of you here for a reason!

[ Oh, of course he's always smiling. A cat always is. It's the rest of their body language that tells it all. ]

[Her fists clench, and she finds herself wishing she could turn to her wolfdog form in the hub world.]

I don't care if it's fun for you! You're hurting everyone! Everyone here doesn't deserve what you're going to do to them, so just - just stop it already!

[There are faint traces of tears in her eyes, but she's too busy yelling to care.]

Everyone...Everyone is really nice. And if you're going to hurt them anymore, then I...I'll stop you!

[patchworkcat]

You'll... Stop me? ...Really?

[ There's something dangerous about that smile now. ]

...Are you sure you can?

[For a second, she freezes. Her instincts tell her that she's walked into something incredibly dangerous - but her emotions win out over them, and she swallows - hard - before wiping her face on her arm and letting a deep breath out.]

...Yeah.

[And, before he can intimidate her any further, she rushes at him, leaping in the air with the intent to land on him and drag him down to the floor. He's a threat, and now that she's committed to this, she'll do everything she can to follow through.

Even if her decision was a poor one.]

[ She's fast, sure. But not as fast as something equally inhuman. And all he has to do, since she so carelessly leapt into the air, is raise his claws to greet her and impale her on them. ]

Sorry~ But that's against the rules! Mweeheehee!

[She can't even hope to move out of the way in time - and as the claws sink into her human body (puncturing human organs, instead of her normal core), she screams.

Well. Tries to. The scream's rife with bloody gurgles as well, the claws having punctured her lungs and causing frothy blood to bubble out of her mouth.]

Ah....ahgh....

[It hurts in a way she hasn't felt before - and she knows this is fatal. So, if she has nothing to lose, then...

She reaches out and tries to attack his face, instinctively aiming at that single glowing eye. At the very least, she doesn't want it to be entirely in vain.]

[ He tilts his face away, so at worst she's going to end up clawing at the empty socket already present and the stitching across his patchwork face. He'll chuckle, then just fling her off of his claws before sauntering on over to her. ]

Hey, hey! Cheer up! You get to serve as a warning to your friends! Maybe now they'll take things more seriously, Alice! Your last action in any world or World is to be the example!

[...Damn it.

She can't really talk...or move when he flings her away, but she makes an effort regardless. Struggling, she manages to push herself up on her arms, wheezing out of lungs that don't work anymore as blood drips on the floor.

But...At the end, she doesn't look at Cheshire. Instead, Rahti looks at her fellow captives in this place, and...smiles.]

...S....orry, everyone...I...thought I could....help....

[Tears spill out, but there's no use to wiping them away. She failed.]

....Don't...give up...okay...? No matter....what happens....get home.

O..kay...?

[Her arms can't support her any longer after that, and she crashes back down to the floor.

But it's just as well. She can barely breathe as it is. All she can hope is that the cat makes it quick.]

Nighty-night, Alice. Sentenced to be forever!

[ There's no more taunting. The Cat simply kicks her over onto her back, making sure it's a nice, sharp kick. And then he'll just stab his claws down into her neck--thus ending the life of Rahti. ]
