Tara POV-

I awoke a little while after we had passed out. It was hard to see clearly but I could tell we were moving. My vision came back little by little and I could see that we were in the halls of what looked to be a mansion, and that I was slung over someone's shoulder. I looked over and Kassandra was being carried a little more carefully because of the cuts. I began to wiggle but the one who was carrying me wouldn't let me down. I looked up and saw he had a pair of bunneh earz! I reached up and tugged on one. I was right, he did let me go after that, but he also dropped me. Hard.

"ow! Owowowowowowow! " he yelled, eyes watering. Kassandra woke up and struggled our of the mans grip. She helped me up, and we just stared at the man, finnaly noticing the twins that were there. Again they said nothing but they did laugh. That made the bunneh dude mad. He started flinging insults at the twins like "little brats" and other words that I know Kassandra uses, but I wont say. They rebutted with "chicky rabbit" and "newbie hare" and a few other things. It was like this for a few minutes but we soon got bored. I looked over to Kassandra and put my hands in the "whistling" position, she smirked and did the same. A mental count down commenced and we whistled our signature whistle that could rival a train. Bunneh man and the twins covered their ears and we stopped.

"ok so who's gunna tell us where we are?" Kassandra said.

"and who were with?" I finished. The bunneh dude looked at me then Kassandra like we were crazy.

"y-your in wonderland! Im Elliot March, and these to are the bloody twins, Dee and dum." he said. With a smile. That quickly turned into a frown as he glanced back. I felt a hand on my shoulder and let out a little squeak. Kassandra feels the same and turns around quickly putting her hands up in a defensive way.

"woah! Back of dude!" she snaps. I turn around to face him. When I hear Kassandra yell:

"dude! I love that Top Hat! Its so cool!" she yells, completely forgetting to be mad. He had a top hat with roses (how he manages to keep them alive, I will never know) a waist coat and a totally rockin' walkin stick.

"um… thank you miss….?" he said, as Kassandra just stared at his hat… and stared…. And stared… so I answered for her.

"her name is Kassandra. Im Tara but you can call me the All Superior Me, and you can call her the Un Almighty." I said. I looked dead serious, but I was laughing inside. finally! I finnaly get to say that and NOT get in trouble! I thought. Suddenly everyone was looking at me.

"what..? What did I say?" I asked worriedly. Kassandra walked up and whispered in my ear. talking? I was talking out loud! I thought. Kassandra nodded. She heard me?

"nuuuuuuuuuuuu!" I yelled. "What am I gunna do! My thoughts aren't safe!" I yelled. Kassandra just laughed… and laughed. Then It clicked.

"y-you!" I yelled! She had been tricking me. "oh! Your gunna get it!" I yelled again.

"nope!" Kassandra yelled as she ran. "Im gunna run and laugh like the sadist I am, while you chase me and fail!" she yelled back. She rounded the corner and a thud was heard. I rounded to see Kassandra getting up and dusting herself off. She had run into Mr. Top hat dude.

"sorry 'bout that." she said. What? She never admits to being wrong! Oh well. She's probably only being nice 1- cause he's freaking cute, 2- he's freaking tall 3- cause of his top hat.

"no its quite alright. Your infatuation with my hat is a little creepy though." he said smirking. Kassandra spotted me.

"tara!" she said walking close to me, but suddenly stopped.

"y-your not gunna hit me are you?" she may be taller than me but I still pack a punch.

"no don't worry. Seeing you fall was enough for me." I said laughing. Kassandra frowned and turned to the hat dude.

"hey, you never told us your name!" she said accusingly. He just laughed quietly.

"Blood, Blood Dupre." he said. Kassandra looked at me, I looked at her then we both looked at Blood. He shifted uncomfortably under our gaze.

"what?" he asked. We ignored him.

"what?" he demanded.

"dude! Your name!" Kassandra stated.

"what about it?" blood asked wearily.

"~its freaking EPIC!" we shouted simultaneously. He just stared at us, totally speechless. Then he smiled. Then he started laughing. This went on for a few minutes before he stopped and looked at our attire. We were still in our pj's.

"before I let you go explore the other territories, you should probably change."

"into what" we said simultaneously. (we really do that in real life. Kinda scary sometimes.)

"we have some clothing you can use here." he said looking bored.

"yeah, where is here anyway?" Kassandra asked. Blood looked at her like she had lost her mind. Recognition slid its way onto his face.

"you two are foreigners aren't you?" he asked. Not entirely looking for an answer. "well this is wonderland as Elliot has already explained, as such, it is broken off into 5 main territories. Castle of hearts, clover tower, the amusement park, the circus, and finally hatter territory, where we are now. Now I must warn you not to go to the circus if you know what's good for you. Anyways, castle of hearts is the home of the Queen, clover tower houses the clock maker, the amusement park…." blood smirked." well ill let you figure that out for yourselves, and the hatter mansion is home of the Mafia." blood finished. Kassandra and I stared at blood, then ourselves, then blood, then back to ourselves. Then we did something that the town idiot would be jealous of. We ran around in circles chanting Mafia and Mafioso's.

"Mafia!" Kassandra yelled.

"this is so-" I started.

"freaking awesome!" Kassandra finished as we stopped running in circles long enough to see blood looking at the floor with his hair covering his eyes, and his hand covering his mouth. He straitened out and told us to follow. We came to a room with two beds and two closets.

"your welcome to stay here for as long as you like." he said.

"wait, you mean your not weirded out by us?" I asked.

"yeah, we were acting like little kids, and you still want us around?" Kassandra said.

"no I don't mind at all, but, can I ask how old you two are?" he asked. We nodded.

"I think formal introduction's are in order." I said. Kassandra nodded, smirking the whole time. We stood side by side in the door frame. I pointed to myself and said,

"yo! Im Tara. Im 17 years old, from Tokyo Japan, and Im a pianist!." I finished with a peace sign, holding it up until Kassandra finished her introduction.

"sup? Im Kassandra, Im 18 years old, from Tokyo Japan, and Im a violinist!" we both held up our peace signs, me with my right, her with her left. We grabbed each other's free hands and finished,

"and we're the KT Vianists!" we said simultaneously. We looked at blood who was glairing at Kassandra viciously.

"violins aren't welcome in the hatter mansion-" Kassandra looked devastated. Tears threatened to fall but of course she wouldn't dare. She ran into the room and slammed the door. I glared at blood.

"what the heck! She's very sensitive about her violin playing! Same with me and the piano! How dare you!" I yelled. usually it was Kassandra who would yell.

"she didn't let me finish." he said calmly." violins are not welcome unless they are proven good. If she really is good, she can play here." he stated. " I have a violin that my mother used to play. She can use that. Now then, let us test her skills, and yours." I smiled and ran into the room. I grabbed two dressed from one of the closets and chose a pink and black punkish dress for me, and a black and white dress for her. We quickly got dressed and looked at each other in the mirrors. My dress had a pink base skirt that had been draped with ripped and torn black fabric. The bodice was laced with pink and white ribbons while it was mostly black. Kassandra's dress was more gothic. It was a pure black dress with white ribbons falling this way and that and had black lace roses round the stomach. The bodice was pure white with blood red trimming as well as down the center of the front. (AN/ ill post pictures later)

"c'mon Kassandra! Lets show this moron with the awesome hat just how good we are!" I said as I grabbed her arm and led her into the hall. Blood led us into a room with a piano, guitar, cello, and all other types of instruments. I quickly ran over to the piano and ran my fingers over the keys. Blood went into a small storage room and handed Kassandra a very old violin. She beamed as she examined it. Her expression became one of shock as she recognised the type.

"oh-oh my god…" she said quietly.

"what's wrong?" Blood looked concerned.

"nothing's wrong, that's just it! This Is a Stradivari violin!" she shouted.

"a what?" I asked.
