*Ciel's POV*

When I opened my eye, I saw that I was in the maze again only this time there seems to be a rose bush missing. I looked down to see that I was wearing the same outfit I was wearing the first time I was in a place like this. I looked around to see that the three cards and the blonde girl were gone as well. But before I could go and look for them to see what they were doing I heard a noise behind me. It sounds like someone yelling, I turned around to see something that shocked me.

"Another dream...?" I looked at the blonde haired girl on the floor along with the cards. I looked to see it was the lady from the statue holding a torn rose bush in her hand.

"For painting my roses red, someone will lose his head!" The Queen of Hearts said in anger

"Y-your Majesty, if anyone's to blame, it's him!" Three of Clubs blamed Two of Clubs

"Have mercy, Your Grace. It was the Ace!" Two of clubs blamed Ace of Clubs

"So it was YOU." The Queen asked the Ace of Clubs as he was shaking

"Gah, no, it was the Two!" Ace of Clubs blamed Two of Clubs while being covered in red paint

"Then he will pay." The Queen said while looking at Two of Clubs

"It was the Three, I say!" Two of Clubs blamed Three of Clubs

'Why are they blaming each other?! It's just making their situation worse!' I thought to myself

"Enough of this. Off with ALL their heads!" The Queen ordered as the three cards were dragged away by red cards, leaving the blonde girl left.

"Ooooooooh! Yaaaaay!" The red cards cheered

"Hee hee hee." The Queen chuckled

'This behavior It reminds me of the kinds of people I despise!' I thought to myself as I glared at the Queen

"A fitting end. Color, you can't mend." Two of Diamonds said

"Everyone knows the roses should be red." Three of Spades said

My vision then grows dark as I no longer heard the noise of the maze, the queen or the cards just silence. I tried to wrap my head around the situation and what I had just witnessed in the dream and why it happened. Could these dreams be warning me, are these connected to Riddle in some way? But still what the Queen did was so wrong, they didn't deserved to lose their heads for a small mistake.

'But they're just roses!' I thought to myself as I felt someone shaking me.

"Ciel, wake up." I got up from my bed to see it was Deuce

"Deuce?" I said while still sleepy

"The unbirthday party is today. If we're late, well, you know..." Deuce said

"That's right... The party's today." I said as Deuce left the room

I got out of my bed and quickly changed in my school uniform as I quickly made my way to the lounge area. I looked to see that Ace and Grim were still asleep, though Ace did fall asleep in his school uniform. So changing clothes isn't a problem what so ever for him, same with Grim since he doesn't wear clothes anyways. I looked towards Deuce to see that he had cleaned up the mess and neatly folded the blankets and pillow I gave him. I gave him a thankful smile as I was going to wake Ace and Grim up but was interrupted by some knocks on the door.

"Hmm? It sounds like you have a visitor." Deuce said while looking at the door

"I think I know who it is." I said as the door opens
