In the book, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, the Queen of Hearts first demands Alice's execution just moments after having met her, as she thinks that she has been rude to her, but she is quickly disuaded by the King.
`And who are THESE?' said the Queen, pointing to the three gardeners who were lying round the rosetree; for, you see, as they were lying on their faces, and the pattern on their backs was the same as the rest of the pack, she could not tell whether they were gardeners, or soldiers, or courtiers, or three of her own children.
`How should I know?' said Alice, surprised at her own courage. `It's no business of MINE.'
The Queen turned crimson with fury, and, after glaring at her for a moment like a wild beast, screamed `Off with her head! Off--'
`Nonsense!' said Alice, very loudly and decidedly, and the Queen was silent.
The King laid his hand upon her arm, and timidly said `Consider, my dear: she is only a child!'
The Queen turned angrily away from him, and said to the Knave `Turn them over!'
The next time she orders Alice's decapitation is during the trial of the Knave of Hearts, as Alice is openly defiant towards her.
`No, no!' said the Queen. `Sentence first--verdict afterwards.'
`Stuff and nonsense!' said Alice loudly. `The idea of having the sentence first!'
`Hold your tongue!' said the Queen, turning purple.
`I won't!' said Alice.
`Off with her head!' the Queen shouted at the top of her voice. Nobody moved.
`Who cares for you?' said Alice, (she had grown to her full size by this time.) `You're nothing but a pack of cards!'
In Disney's 1951 animated film, the Queen first attempts to order Alice's execution during the croquet game, when she mistakenly thinks that Alice has tripped her up, but the King persuades her that Alice ought to have a trial first. The queen spends the trial attempting to demand Alice's head be cut off, until Alice informs her that she is "a fat, pompous, bad tempered old tyrant," which inspires the Queen to cry, "off with her head!" several times.

What is the story behind vocaloid alic of human sacrifice?
In Alice of Human Sacrifice (Hitobashira Alice), there's a dream but it does not want to be forgotten so it gets unknowing victims to create its world. The first one, represented by Meiko, was red and she killed people. If she didn't kill anyone, nobody would even know she existed. Her sign was spades. The second Alice, Kaito, was a blue man who sang false notes. He was killed by a crazy person and as he died, everyone loved him because out his eye came a rose. He was a diamond. Miku, the third Alice, was green and she took the rose and put it in her ear, starting the thought that maybe she killed Kaito, and she was able to trick people to make her their queen of green country. But she had a bad dream only seeing rotted flesh and then she had the same fate as the first Alice. She was the clubs. Btw, the four alices happen all at the same time. The fourth Alice, Rin and Len, were two children and they were yellow. They were the closest to Alice's world. They go through all of the three Alice's world then have a tea party under a rose tree (where Kaito died). Then they wondered into the forest where the 1st Alice killed them. The twins were invited with the trump card of hearts.
