","writing":"Chapter 2 - Back into Wonderland\n\n\tAs the darkness enveloped Cas's vision, he could see the grin on Mr. Bells face fade as he turned around. The gentleman began walking away and vanished into the abyss. Everything that Cas felt was gone, the land around him disappeared. He felt like he was floating on air, and then... nothing. \n\nCas shot up and hurled over on his side coughing up the blood that lingered inside of his throat. The pain that surged through his neck soon faded as he opened his eyes slowly. The light hurt his eyes for a moment, but they were quick to adjust. Turning over onto his stomach, Cas slowly rose up and looked around to check his surrounding.\n\nThere was blood covering the floor and the corpse of his fallen partner in front of him. A cut straight across his stomach with his intestines pulled out in front of him. The once peaceful face was now a contorted expression of agony. The smell, it was awful. A combination of metallic and what can be best described as someone relieving themselves. Cas shook his head, trying to ignore the emotional pain for a moment. Slowly he crawled over to the corpse and placed his hand on the back of its head and brought it closer. He lowered his head and kissed the rabbit like creatures forehead. \n\n``I'm sorry. I...'' Cas paused for a moment, he closed his eyes and sighed. ``I love you Alexander. I hope... you forgive me for what I?m about to do. ``He brushed his hand over Alexanders face closing his eyes. Gently he laid the corpse on the floor, positioning its hands over his chest. For a moment, Cas rested his head on its hands. Remembering when he would be held by Alexanders gentle touch. Tears rolled down his face, but he didn't make a noise. \n\nThe once warm creature was now cold. Stiff, and motionless. All the good deeds he ever did, meant nothing into the eyes of Cas's people. A scholar, a keeper of peace. Cas thought about all the good things this man has done for him and smiled. Then with a long pause he pushed all those thoughts into the back of his mind. He rose his head and opened his eyes. Looking down one more time before standing onto his feet a growl escaped his throat. \n\nCas was a lion. His mane was as black as the night sky. His fur however, was an amber orange. His eyes with their lidded gaze shined brightly with their blue glow. He raised his hands up, and looked at them. His forearms were well defined. When he clenched his fists the muscles bulged out more. When Mr. Bell gave him his form in that land, he couldn't understand why he was a human. But that didn't matter to him anymore, or at least for now. \n\nOutside of the room Cas could hear footsteps approaching slowly. He took a breath and sneaked over to a shelf that stood beside the door. It contained a large amount of flasks and bottles with various liquids. He reached and grabbed a red bottle that he knew contained an acidic liquid inside of it. He stood to the side and waited until the source of the footsteps entered the room. Two large lions walked in, they had the same color fur as Cas, but had scars all over their bodies.\n\nThey stood over Alexanders corpse and chuckled.\n\n``It's a shame really. I don't know why Cas thought it would be a wise idea to betray his kingdom for some rabbit.'' one of the lions kicked the corpse and sighed. ``Good riddance. \n\nOne of them turned around and stopped dead in its tracks. \n\n``Tes?'' The lion that stood behind him turned around. \n\n``What is it?'' Tes asked taking a step closer and looked down. He froze in place, and a bead of sweat rolled down his head. ``Oh shit.''\n\n``W...Where is his body?'' \n\nThe two were so focused on the space in front of them that neither of them noticed Cas slip behind them. Holding the bottle by the neck with his left hand, he quickly reached his right hand forward and unsheathed Tes's blade from his side. As he turned around, Cas smashed the bottle of acid against his face. Tes Collapsed onto his knees, placing his hands over his face howling in agony. As the other lion turned around Cas shoved the blade through the bottom of his neck through the top of his head and quickly pulling it out. The lion collapsed onto the floor dead from his wounds. \n\nTes Writhed in agony, but Cas kicked him onto his back. Grabbing another bottle off of the shelf, he uncorked it and poured it over Tes. The smell of oil filled the room. \n\n``N..No!'' Tes screamed as Cas grabbed the lit lantern and smashed it over stop of him. The fire spread quickly and engulfed Tes. He writhed and twisted screaming in agony. Leaning down Cas grabbed the other sword off of the lobotomized lion. \n\n``What a waste. All that muscle, and you still die like a child screaming for its mother.'' Cas grabbed his cloak and threw it on himself. He grabbed another bottle from his shelf and uncorked it and quickly gulped down the liquid. Wielding his blades he walked outside of the room and out the front door of the building. \n\nThe commotion inside of the building had alerted the entire colony. Many Alabastations stood outside of Cas's house with weapons in hands. But when they saw that it was Cas, a lot of them looked like they have just seen a ghost. Cas relaxed his body, and let his arms rest by his waist. He looked around, he had a moment before the potion kicked in. He wanted these people to know why. \n\n``Brothers, sisters. Don't hate me for what I am about to do. A bell rung for our kingdom and signaled its end. Your betrayal, and your hatred for the Celestials is what damned you to this judgment. I do not hate you for what you did. But....'' Cas's chest tightened. His anger was pouring out from his heart into his body. ``... I'm about to... go... B..berserk. I won...won't be in control of... what happens next... Forgive me... Alexander. ``With that, his vision faded into darkness, the feeling of anger spread through his mind, he thoughts were gone. Only the madness remained. \n\nCas came back to his senses in what felt like an instant. He gasped as his conscience came to be. The sweat dripped off his brow as he realized his sword was up against a child?s throat. His muscles ached, he looked around to see the room was littered with corpses. Blood painted the walls, and with the sight so did his anger. Looking back down at the child, he cursed under his breath and sheathed it.\n\nWith tears in his eyes, the child cried out for his parents. They laid behind him, motionless. He screamed, he cursed the man before him. Questioning why he would do such a thing. Cas couldn't answer. With a sigh he turned around and walked away. He knew he couldn't apologize for what he had done, so the best he could do was walk away. Give this child a chance that these people had, but refused to take. \n\nWalking out of the building that housed the dead, he took a look around and saw that the whole colony was ablaze. Looking at the center of the courtyard he saw the leader impaled on a stake. There was an eerie silence that was stringed about the place. Exhaling Cas began to walk away from it all until he looked back to his house which was now a pile of ash of the ground. He walked over to the pile of ash and knelt down onto the ground and placed his right hand onto the ash. \n\n``The memories will never cease I know. I will always remember you, and the lessons you taught me. But you knew who I was, and what I do. I apologize for this moment, but I have work to do. Rest easy Alexander. If you can stand to watch over me, thank you. If this moment sickened you, I understand. I love you all the same. Good bye.'' Cas unstrapped the sword from his back and laid it into the ash, the sheath had a sunflower peddle on it, he smile at it and sighed. \n\nStanding from the ground Cas tightened his cloak around him and covered his head with the hood. Thunder could be heard in the distance. The smell of death filled the air, but the smell of rain lingered through. Exiting the burning village Cas could only head north. Unsure of what direction to take, he could only move forward to where ever the road my lead. \n\nStopping for a moment, Cas could hear Mr. Bell's voice in his head. \n\n``Good. This was a heavy burden on you, I know. I apologize for making you do this. But leaving that child alive will only cause more problems.'' Mr Bell chuckled. ``But your mind refuses, and you accept the consequences and will take care of them in the future. Fine, so be it. But understand... no. No, I won't be that malice filled deity. I understand. Travel the world, find peace in the madness, or let it consume you.``\n\nCas didn't say anything. He kept walking in silence. The sound of the wind blowing through the trees and the crackle of the fire behind him are the only things that could be heard. Where to next was the only thought on his mind. But then, he realized he should tell the Celestials what happened. \n\n``However, then without the Alabastians holding fear, more powerful foes will come to take control. ``Cas said to himself. He looked back and watched the fire for a moment. As the breeze picked up he looked at his hand and made a fist. ``I guess... I should get stronger in the meantime.'' Lowering his hand back down and looking at the fire, he masked the pain he felt with the look of fury. \n\nWith nothing left, he turned and continued to walk away. Unsure of his next destination, the only thing he knew was that if he had to travel he would need to become stronger to fight new foes. For that was the unfortunate consequence to his action. By destroying a power controlling colony, a new one will take its place. \n\n``Why, huh?'' Cas chuckled at the question and kept walking north. ``Why indeed.'' \n\n","writing_bbcode_parsed":"Chapter 2 - Back into Wonderland
