Disclaimer: I do not own Boris, Pierce, or any mentioned Heart, Clover, or Joker no Kuni no Alice Character. That all belongs to the wonderful Quin Rose.
Pierce knew how long it would take to get from the rabbit hole to her small den, it was something she needed to know for survival. Time was of the essence, and if she could just get home without anyone spotting her, she'd be okay. She had just spent a few weeks in Alice's World...if she was lucky, no one would question it-or even ask. It wasn't her choice to spend time up there...The mouse glanced at a tiny bundle in her arms, Pierce had done it for her...
The quick high of a spring fever had put Pierce in the position of having a one night stand, but nothing like this had ever happened before-there hadn't been any births since the twins. There was no warning-and to put it simply, genetics were a bitch. A typical female mouse gives birth every two weeks, but until it happened to her, Pierce had no reason to keep that knowledge in mind. By the time she had found out herself what was happening, a week and a half of morning sickness, cravings, and cramps had bypassed her; leaving just a few days for her to prepare a place for the new coming child to sleep and for her to get up the rabbit hole. The mouse wasn't even sure if she had really needed to go out of Wonderland-but it was a precaution. Pierce, if she had the choice, would never had chosen to have a baby. But there were no extra roles in Wonderland-so it was a roll of the dice to even decide where to go.
If she had stayed, there would have been a chance that the baby would have ended up as a faceless-something that everyone could simply destroy at the click of a gun. So she went up to the surface and found refuge where she had her little pinkie. But now that she was not born in wonderland, the baby was a foreigner.
So Pierce had to make it home, and make it there fast. She had to hide and protect her child as much as possible...
"Hey~ What's that?"
The gravedigger jumped up in fear, she had been so lost in thought she hadn't noticed the Cheshire looming on overhead. "I-It's nothing!"
"It doesn't look like nothing." The cat jumped down and tried to get a better look.
His golden eyes widened. "Is that a Kit?"
"N-No it's not!" Her best bet was to run, Pierce turned on her heels and cradled the infant carefully as she took off.
"Yes it is! I can see and smell it!"
The Dormouse just kept running, just praying to God that he'd loose interest or just disappear.
"Come on Pierce! Just tell me!" She could hear him shout, she tore her eyes off of the path in front of her to glance back at him, "Why can't you just leave me alo-ah!"
Boris caught the mouse right before she and the newborn hit the ground, "You have to be careful or else-"
"I-I know!" The gravedigger regained her balance. "J-Just go!"
"Pierce, I just want to know, where did that kit-" He was interrupted by the sudden crying of the said child. She had taken enough, on top of the yelling, rough movements, and almost being dropped, she couldn't handle it anymore. She started to cry, she just wanted to go back to sleep.
"I-I need to go." Boris just stood there expressionless as the mouse hurried off with the bundle. It was so...odd. There hadn't been a baby crying since the Tweedle twins....and that was a little over eight years ago! And not only that...but that baby had a face. It wasn't just any old faceless child....but he let the duo go.
Boris wandered the woods in thought...There were no other role-holding mice, for that he was sure. Could it be possible Pierce traveled beyond Wonderland? ...He had been missing for three weeks that one time... But to travel beyond Wonderland? He nodded to himself: he would visit Pierce later. But after a short while, it felt as if Boris had been circling the forest forever, and he kept wondering why the arrival of the new kit had bothered him so much... It would continue to bother him for a long time, he could tell. Not to mention, a child crying in Wonderland was so off...
The Cheshire decided he wouldn't be able to put up with it any longer; so the tom followed the mouses' tracks to her house.
End notes:
I was going to make this a slash fanfiction and use the MPreg, but I haven't seen yaoi yet on the Heart no Kuni no Alice Fanfictions...so I decided to play it safe and gender-bend Pierce. Please tell me what you think. ^^"
This was based on a role play....
Pinkie: Baby Mouse
Kit/Kitten: Baby cat
Tom: Male Cat
And yes, the adverage female field mouse gives birth every two weeks. I'm not going to make Pierce turn into that though, I promise. ^^" I will continue when I get some feedback so....
