Smoke filled the air as a house burned to the ground. Firefighters were on the scene struggling to stop the fire and rescue anyone that might be inside. Just as the house was about to collapse, the door, which had been recently put out, was forced open. Two teens stumbled out and fell to the ground. Firefighters rushed to them and hurried them away from the house.

As the fire was put out, the two teens were being treated for any injuries and smoke inhalation. One of them, a girl, was crying and clinging to the other teen. The other sat and stared into the distance, jumping every now and then each time someone came near him.

"What are your names?" a man questioned them. The girl looked at the boy beside her, but he only stared ahead, silent.

"I'm Hannah and this is my twin brother, Lucas," the girl said.

"Was there anyone else in the house with you?"

"Our mom," Lucas mumbled barely audible. Hannah clung to her brother once again as she continued to cry.

"Did she make it out?" the man asked. Lucas shook his head, but didn't say another word. His vacant eyes gave away nothing. Unlike his sister, he remained perfectly calm despite what they had just gone through. Once the man walked away, Hannah turned to her brother.

"Lucas?" she said. "What's going to happen to us now?" Lucas didn't say anything. He wrapped an arm around her shoulders, giving her a reassuring hug.

"We don't have any other relatives," Hannah went on, ignoring her brother's silence. "Where are we going to go?"

"We could always go look for our father," Lucas suggested after a while.

"But he's in Wonderland!" Hannah gasped. "How are we supposed to get there?"

"Through our dreams," Lucas said.

"But, if he doesn't want us?" Hannah argued. "He doesn't even know about us!"

Lucas didn't say anything. Hannah glanced at his arm, which had been burned in the fire, and noticed that it was shaking slightly.

"Alright, you two," the man said, coming up to them. "You'll be sent to a foster home for now until we can find any relatives you might have."

"Okay," Hannah said following after him. She paused when she saw that Lucas wasn't following. "It's alright Lucas," she said holding her hand out to him. He took her hand hesitantly and followed along with his sister. Lucas glanced back at what was left of their home. His left eye glowed slightly as a single tear slid down his cheek which he wiped away quickly.

Goodbye, momma, he thought, we'll never forget you.

*In Wonderland*

Ever since Alice had left Wonderland, the people that lived there had become unstable if not more. The White Rabbit became more dangerous and he didn't care if he knew Alice would have been upset if he killed a faceless. The Knight of Hearts found himself lost more than usual. The Cheshire cat went sneaking around getting hurt often as he did so. The Bloody Twins, March Hare, and the Queen of Hearts never hesitated when they killed faceless. The Clockmaker found it harder and harder to keep up with all the work he had been getting and he still didn't rest like he should.

But that couldn't compare to the broken heart that the Mad Hatter was experiencing. When Alice left, she took his heart with her. It felt as if it had been ripped straight from his chest and stomped into the ground. The mere mention of the outsider sent him over the edge and he became even more temperamental. He suppressed memories of her and he struggled to forget about the night they had spent together. It haunted his soul.

As he sat in his office completing paperwork, he heard a knock at the door. He sighed as he stood and headed to the door. Opening it revealed Elliot.

"What?" Blood said harshly. Elliot flinched and rubbed his head.

"The incubus is at the gate with two teenagers," he said. "Nightmare said that he needed to see you urgently."

Blood growled but headed out towards the gate, Elliot following behind. Once outside, Blood saw that the demon was indeed there as well as the teens, one of which looked familiar. He froze in place. The girl looked so much like Alice that she could have been her twin. The boy that stood beside her was glancing at the twins nervously. He seemed to not feel safe there.

"You wanted to see me?" Blood glared at the incubus.

"Yes, but can we please discuss this in private?" he asked with a nervous smile.

"Fine," Blood said walking back to his office. Nightmare turned to the two he had with him. He gestured for them to follow and notice the boy still glancing at Elliot and the twins nervously.

"Hannah," Nightmare said to the girl who understood. She took hold of the boy's hand and led him after Nightmare. They caught up with Blood outside his office. Once inside Nightmare had the teens sit on one of the sofas.

"Now what do you want and who are they?" Blood asked sharply.

Nightmare sighed and went to stand behind the teens, Blood watching his every move suspiciously.

"This is Hannah," he said pointing to the girl. "And this is Lucas." Blood remained silent as Nightmare continued. "They're your twin children."
