Alice in Wonderland- I mean the Dark Flame Manor
🕑 Added 2025-05-29 23:25:00 +0000 UTCI’d gone back to sleep in order to fully heal my wounds, however my sleep was interrupted by my mother saying I had a visitor. I wonder who it could be? Alright I’m not that stupid, it was pretty obvious who it was.
Utena had come inside and I gave her a tired smile as I had just woken up.
“I’m already feeling better-” She gave me a warm hug causing me no pain despite the tightness.
“I’m happy you got better so quickly . . .” she blushes as she holds me tight and a faint guilt worms into my heart. I really wish I could just tell her, but I bury the feelings for now. Something dark is brewing and I can’t take any major risks, not yet. Not until I get so strong it doesn’t matter.
I hold her back and blush faintly as my gaze looks down at the drawer next to me. I’d folded up the photo she gave me and put it in there for potential later usage.
“Thanks for the photo.” She blushed and muttered with slight embarrassment at my appreciation.
“She had to be punished for interfering with my plans. . .” Then she looks at me with a determined expression.
“Aki we need to get you a phone!” There were practically stars in her eyes (not actually) as a blush bloomed on her face. “I want to be able to send you pictures!” I blushed at the sudden thought of receiving lewd photos of my girlfriends 'exploits’.
“I tried to get one yesterday but everything exploded.” She slowly turns up to me as her eyes narrow.
“Do you think you got sick because of everything that happened?” She looks like she’s about to kill someone so I try to defuse the Utena-Bomb.
“No, I think I just ate something bad.” She smiles and looks down to my stomach with a piercing glare.
“I’d offer to make you something but Okaa-san is far better.” Referring to my mother as your own so soon! I blush at the thought of getting married to her, but it's way too soon for that! Then I pause and consider my current thoughts.
Is Utena a harem protagonist? Am I the childhood friend route? No! I am the Crimson Abyss, I am the Veil between worlds, I am the-
“Aki are you being chunni again?” My expression must have given me away. She slides her body against mine and snuggles against me. I pull her in tight and run a hand through her hair before giving her a kiss on the top of the head causing her to let out a lewd laugh.
Suddenly I heard Utena’s phone buzz causing her to look down at it in annoyance before her eyes widened. Then a cruel smile bloomed upon her face while I peered over the message.
>A new member is joining. She’ll be vital to defeating Veil.
Good. He’s been getting in the way of my plans and needs to be dealt with a soon as possible.<
Those messages didn’t bode well. What ‘plans’ could I even be interfering with? Her being a pervert? Robbing a bank? Something more sinister? I had no idea and I’d considered asking until a small black creature gave a wave from outside my window.
Was that thing always watching her? While good to know it wasn’t good. Magical girl mascots were honestly a coin flip for being evil or not but with this guy it was pretty clear which side he was on.
“Utena-Chan, we have a meeting to get too.” The portal opened but Utena didn’t move and instead stayed hugging me.
“Give me a minute, I need to recharge.” The creature tilted its head slightly before shrugging and giving me an odd look.
“Inoue-San right?” I gave a nod to the little creature, I’d completely forgotten its name if it had ever been said to me in the first place.
Its smile widened and its next line sent a shiver through my body.
“You can consider me Utena-Chan’s faithful supporter in the path of Evil.” I did not like the way he said that at all!
“Now then Utena-chan. This new member of ours is quite powerful, so let's not keep her waiting.” Uh oh. It only takes the forces of good one loss to cause massive damage, even when we win lots of collateral damage can still happen. I hold Utena tightly for a moment and she looks up at me with slight concern.
“Don’t worry Aki. I won’t lose.” The look in her eyes is tinged in a slight madness that causes my heart to race with excitement. Scary Utena is the best Utena!
Utena Hiiragi POV
Bidding my Aki goodbye I stepped through the portal and transformed into Magia Baiser. Plans brewed in my mind. If we could defeat Veil with this new member then I could bring my Aki without worrying about him getting hurt. Veil was sneaky and I had no doubts in my mind that he would target my Demon King in order to get the edge in a fight.
I didn’t hate Veil or anything, and I didn’t want to fight anyone. But my dream of ‘helping’ Magical Girls could not be stopped! Especially when my Aki liked it so much~
“Baiser-chan!” I’m hugged by Kiwi-chan from the side causing me to blush. After my punishment she only got more clingy, she’d loved being the center of my attention even if I was spanking her. She was a super cute magical girl, and I was weak to her.
If I found out she hurt Aki I might have to teach her a real lesson but luckily she hadn’t so here we are.
“I missed you so much!” It had been maybe a few hours at most. Kiwi had even transferred to my school with the help of Venalita-san which made me wonder how much pull Venalita-san had. Transferring someone that fast is no easy feat. I knew that because I tried to get transferred to Aki’s school and got rejected!
It was a school for super smart kids and sadly I didn’t make the cut. Aki had tried to help me but it just wasn’t enough. Maybe I should blow up the school as my first villainous act! Then Aki will have to transfer to a different school and I can go to that one!
I thought about it before sadly scrapping the idea. There were way too many things wrong with it. Suddenly my body was swaying as Kiwi-chan was moving me from side to side.
“Don’t ignore me Baiser-chan . . . are you thinking about him again!?” She pouted as she glared at an imaginary figure of my Aki, causing me to sigh. Kiwi hadn’t even met him and already hated him for taking my attention away.
I’m sure they could become good friends! T-then we could all do lewd things together . . . but right now there was no way to convince her. She wanted to be the sole recipient of my attention and that was that under the current status quo.
“Sorry Leo-chan, and I was.” Her pout deepend as she cupped my cheeks causing me to blush.
“What’s so great about him anyways! What does he have that I don’t-”
“Storms brew on the horizon, yet here you stand fretting over raindrops.” A girl at least a few years younger than the two of us and she stood upon a rock while staring off into the distance.

“Are you the new member of Enormeeta. . . ?” She gives a silent nod after turning towards us. Then she hops down and I get a good look at her and realize something. She’s so adorable! She’s even holding Venalita-san like he’s a plushie!
“Alright can everyone go ahead and untransform?” We obliged the mascot and after a brief delay we got to see our new member in all of her glory. Only to realize she really was barely ten years old!

“This is Morino Korisu. She’s your new teammate so make her feel welcome, mmkay?”
“Uh, hi Korisu-chan?” She just gave a small nod of her head in response. With what she said earlier I thought she’d suddenly give me a whole speech like my Aki would but she’s actually sort of quiet I think.
Also isn’t she too young for this!
“V-vena-san can we talk?” the little creature flew over and I had to berate him for this!
“Did you seriously kidnap a little girl! I know we need more members but this is ridiculous!”
“Woah woah, I’m not THAT evil. I didn’t trick her into joining, I gave the offer and she just decided to accept it recently. Honestly I hadn’t expected a response after the long wait . . . but here we are.” Suddenly Korisu-chan grabbed Vena-san from the back and pulled the mascot closely into her arms.
“You think you can try and act cute after interrupting my Baiser time? C’mon pipsqueak. Show some respect to your seniors!” She locked eyes and I swear I could have seen a fire burning behind Korisu-chan’s eyes before she softly spoke.
“You just lost to Veil.” Kiwi practically falls to the ground as she’s hit through the heart with an imaginary arrow. My eye twitches at Kiwi-chan at the reminder. Apparently Morino-chan is really strong too? She’s just a kid though!
“Sorry about her Korisu-chan, I’m Utena Hiiragi. Let’s be friends, okay?” She stared at me for a moment with unblinking eyes. Her eyes are actually quite adorable, and she has such pretty hair as well!
For a moment she seemed proud at my stare.
Korisu Morino POV
The leader of Enormeeta was lost within my Crimson eyes, my most powerful character trait that subtly alluded to my loyalty to Crimson Abyss-sama. Though I had to be careful to not call him as such in public, he was obviously undercover and posing as Veil-sama for the time being.
“Let’s get straight to business: We’re gonna show of Korisu’s powers today. With her help Veil will be no match for us . . . probably” The creature of darkness wanted me to face off against Veil-sama, but I had no worries. After all there was no possible universe where I could defeat Veil-sama.
This would be a good way to build trust with my new allies, even if our friendship was most likely going to be temporary due to my inevitable betrayal. Though perhaps it would last quite some time with Veil-sama speaking of the Black Sea’s return nearing.
“Are you sure Korisu-chan is going to be alright? Are you up for that Korisu-chan?” I gave a small nod. The older girl seemed to show some concern at my simple gesture.
“Y-you shouldn’t be, Korisu-chan! You could get seriously hurt!” I had to show her the fire within my eyes and I gave her a determined expression causing her to sigh. Then Venalita raised my star to the sky and said those fabled words.
“Trans Magia.” My outfit returned to me, a frilly piece of clothing that turned my hair black and my eyes a deeper scarlet with purple rings. The large red bow upon my head completed the look and I had truly become the Lady of the Dark Flame Manor. Three stars appeared on my head, yet I knew I could easily manifest two more if the situation called for it, but I wouldn’t be revealing my trump card so early.
But to this group I was:
“Scarlet Alice.”
“A-alice chan you’re so cute! You’re like Alice in Wonderland but gothic and ahh you’re just so adorable!” Magia Baiser started drooling over me much to my pride. After all, if I was to be a servant of Crimson Abyss-sama I had to look good!
“I just want to take you home and show you off! I know my Aki would love you!”
Ah, I knew this girl looked familiar. She was with Crimson Abyss-sama. Crimson Abyss-sama was most likely investigating her, but then why would she call him ‘my Aki’?
“Aki?” She blushed furiously at my remark while Leoparde growls in the back.
“H-he’s my boyfriend!” WHAT.
Crimson Abyss-sama has a girlfriend!? B-but I’m the lady of the Dark Flame Manor! I’m his loyal servant! How could he abandon me!? The Black Sea threatened to break from my eyes like that fateful day for a moment.
Then I understood. All of this was according to Crimson Abyss-sama’s plan! He hadn’t told her his identity as Veil-sama for one, and second of all . . . this was a good way to keep watch on her as well!
Perhaps he is trying to turn Magia Baiser from the Darkness to the Darkness that hunts the Darkness? We did need more allies to face against the Black Sea after all. While I knew Crimson Abyss-sama would eventually win in battle because he was invincible, we still didn’t want too many civilians to get caught in the crossfire.
“Utena-chan don’t forget about me! I’m cute too!” Leoparde slammed into her back and started rocking the two of us back and forth making me slightly dizzy from the sudden movement. Then I saw the deep darkness within Magia Baiser’s soul as she turned to Leoparde and started yelling at her.
“You’re hella cute, Kiwi-chan! Your military uniform is so badass! One million percent cute! I love it!” ‘Kiwi-chan’ ate up the praise. It would seem Magia Baiser or ‘Utena-chan’ is the top dog around here excluding Venatlita.
“Yay, thank you!”
“I love you when you transform! You become the sexiest soldier ever! M-maybe even a soldier in my Demonic army!”
That was certainly something to remember for later. I was missing information, that just meant I’d have to gather it.
“Alright then. Let’s get this show on the road, we have a hidden boss to defeat before we can get back to defeating Tres Magia.”
I nearly laughed at Venalita’s words. Defeat Veil-sama? FOOLISH!
Akihiko Inoue POV
Why do I get the feeling I’m about to be in the second most intense fight of my life?
AN: Scarlet Alice joins Enormeeta and Utena gushes over magical girls as is her thing. They also prepare to go and fight Veil who is not at all ready to be jumped by three scary magical girls fully intent on beating his ass.
Feel free to leave some comments and questions as I read them all!
