You might be able to determine the identity of that young man.
Yo, Gilbert.
Golden hair... emerald eyes...
Oz?!
Nope.
My name is Jack...
Jack Bezarius.
She has always been by herself.
Even though the puppets and I were always there...
...she always felt alone.
Until that day...
When they arrived.
You really act like a cat.
That's because I've always been a cat, even now.
Is that so?
Then I should really give a few words to your owner.
Seeing as you've just scarred the face of a future duke.
Plus, you lack discipline.
And you could really use a scratching-post for your claws.
You're a strange human, you know.
While taking so much punishment, you still smile.
This is all about you, yet you act like you don't even care.
Even though you're physically here, it seems as though you're not.
That's how I see you.
Hey Oz...
...where in the world are you?
So you see me with the same eyes Break does.
The same eyes...?!
You are...!
You shouldn't do that, Cheshire.
You mustn't harm this boy.
Who will be hurt the most if you kill him?
Just think about it for a moment.
Wait!!!
Oh, seems like you have another guest waiting for you, Cheshire.
Oz!
Gil!
I'm glad--
Gil! Are you all right?!
Are you still alive?! Hey, Gil!
Don't... don't pull there.
I'm fine...
I'm fine.
My injury wasn't that serious.
I guess this is our first time formally meeting face-to-face.
Oz.
You...
The man who appeared in Alice's memories...
Who are you?
I'm sure there's a lot of things you want to know.
Unfortunately...
We don't have time right now.
Will you lend me your strength?
I wish to save Alice.
If we don't hurry...
...she will be consumed by this dimension...
She will lose herself, and disappear forever.
What do you want me to do?!
Oz...
Thank you, Oz.
First, we need to figure out where she is now.
Think about Alice...
...then call out her name.
Don't worry, you can do it.
You're the only one who can find her.
Got it, I'll try.
Alice...
Alice...!
This is a world created by that man's memories.
Mother!... Brother Xerxes!
This place is still in Cheshire's territory, right?
Won't he still be coming after us?
Don't worry about him.
Cheshire should be currently preoccupied with his other guest.
Break? Why is he...?
Because he possesses a tremendous amount of power.
He's able to stand up to both Cheshire...
...and the Will of the Abyss.
His power is quite deadly against them.
Why...
Why does the Cheshire Cat want to protect the Will of the Abyss?
Perhaps it's because he wants to become...
...a "Lone Knight," protecting someone important to him.
It's just like Alice's importance to you.
Me?
I'm not like that.
Then, why do you want to save Alice?
What kind of a person is she to you?
What kind...
That's right...
Alice, to me, is like the sun...
...I think.
She cries when she wants to.
She's angry when she feels like it.
She is honest to her own feelings.
She's just like a bright, shining light.
Oz!
I don't have any power.
So, I can't become Alice's knight.
But...
I want to see what that ray of light will bring in the end.
Together with her.
Oz...
That's why... I need to get Alice back.
I've found her.
Oz. I will leave Alice to you.
She is always afraid of being alone.
I know.
Because a rabbit will die if it feels lonely, right?
Oz!
What have you done?!
Where did you send Oz to?!
To Alice.
Why did you send him there alone?
I can't do whatever I want in this dimension.
My power is limited here.
What?
Probably because I'm not actually part of Alice's memories.
Then... what are you exactly?
I'm a fragment.
A fragment of the soul of Jack Bezarius...
...left behind in Alice's memories.
You came after all, stupid cat.
You...!
If I hadn't purposely allowed myself to be caught by you...
You, being such a scaredy cat, would never have appeared right in front of me, right?
So allow me to teach you a little lesson in self-awareness.
There's no need to worry.
This is, after all, a little reward making me dream those horrible dreams.
Mad Hatter?!
Now, it's time for your punishment.
Where are you, Alice?!
Alice!
Where are you, Alice?!
Alice!
Where are you, Alice?!
What... is this?
You are currently in Sabrie.
Did you say Sabrie?!
Yes.
To you all, it's not only the capital city of the world, but...
...it also the city that Baskerville sunk into the the Abyss.
This can't be... so this is...
...a hundred years ago...
The Tragedy of Sabrie?!
I was told that it was caused by a great earthquake.
I see... that's what they told the public.
But why am I here at Sabrie, at a place like this?
Because this dimension was created by Alice's memories.
No way... then...
Yes, she was here.
One hundred years ago, on that day...
She was here, in this castle, at the center of it all.
This is where those memories live, the ones that Alice wanted to erase the most.
Is this what he meant?
Did Alice see all of this?
Damn it... I need to find her quickly!
Alice!
Alice!!
Continuing the conversation from earlier...
Send me to where Oz is, right now!
I never thought I'd see the day that you would point a gun at me.
Hey, Gilbert...
Have you truly forgotten?
About me?
About what happened that day?
About everything?
The smell of blood...
Everywhere I go, all I see are dead bodies.
A child?
He's alive?
I didn't do anything wrong...
This wasn't my fault...
One golden eye, one wine-red eye...
Could it be...?
No, there's no way! This is just a memory of what took place a hundred years ago!
I didn't do anything wrong...
I just... I just did it for Gil.
For Gil?!
Then he really is... Vincent!
The sky, the people, me... everything turned blood-red!
That's right, I haven't done anything wrong!
It's all because of him. It's his fault!
It's all his fault!!!
Vincent!
Wait!
If he really is Vincent...
Then he... Gil, too, is someone who lived a hundred years ago...
Damn...
Gil, from a hundred years ago? What am I thinking?
That's impossi-
Didn't I do the same thing?
I came from the past, skipping ten whole years.
The Abyss is a dimension that warps time.
Even if you manage to successfully escape,there's no way you'd be able to return to your own time!
The Tragedy of Sabrie...
100 years ago, the capital city of the world, Sabrie, sank into the Abyss because of Baskerville.
Then, fifteen years ago, Gil was found covered in wounds on the Bezarius grounds...
...while Vincent was found with similar injuries and taken in by the Nightrays.
If the two of them were there, and were engulfed by the Abyss like the city...
...they must have somehow managed to escape into the future...
It's not impossible!
I...
...don't remember anything.
I don't want to remember anything!
So I see.
You may not want to recall what happened anyway.
I'm sorry, Gil.
Don't force yourself to remember.
What happened that day...
...both to you, and to Alice...
...has left scars that will never heal.
Will he ever stop running?
What am I doing?
I should be looking for Alice!
I can worry about Gil and Vincent later.
But at the same time, I feel as if I need to follow him.
Oz is heading toward Alice...
Is it fate?
No, it's more like a necessity.
Necessity?
He is Oz, Alice is the B-Rabbit.
The link between them is unbreakable.
What's going on?
My heart won't stop throbbing.
I... know this place...
Oz...
That's Alice's voice!
She's up there?
Oz...!
Alice!
Alice!!
Oz...
If you're going to stay by Alice's side, there are some things that you should know.
Until then, she was indeed human.
Until, a hundred years ago, when she was murdered in this place.
