"Why did you leave Alice? You know this is dangerous and you can't deal with the Queen alone. You should have just let me take you home. Take you home. Where you'll be safe and I'll never see you again. Never, see you again..." thought Hatter.

"No." He said a loud and chided his horse to speed up.

Charlie followed as fast as he could but his horse was older and less cooperative.

They two of them crossed the prairie of bushes and weeds and continued past mountains and crossed a few plains to reach the casino.

"Stop, stop." Hatter said. "We have to get in some how. Any ideas?"

"Ah! Of course!" exclaimed Charlie. "Ah, well, we could, ah, um, well no."

Hatter sighed a sigh of complete annoyance. "Well then." He dismounted his horse and tied it to a clump of trees. "I have an idea, just follow me."

Charlie tied up his horse as well and followed Hatter on foot.

Alice POV

I'm hanging on by a damned board! They wouldn't really let me die would they? I mean, the Queen would kill them if she doesn't find out where the ring is.

I shouldn't have left the camp, this isn't going how I planned. Now I'm doomed to my inevitable fate of dieing by falling down from an immense height.

I have to think quick, what would buy me time?!

"The board is starting to crumble." said one of the doctors.

I skittered back a quick as I could. They can't kill me, she'll kill them if they do. The board wasn't stopping, but in fact it was crumbling faster.

"I need to write it down!" I yell clinging to the wall.

"Write it down?"

"Yes, I need to draw a map. It's complicated, you'll never find it with out it." I lie, panic straining my voice.

"Very well then." says the doctor to my left.

A table appears and I begin to write down a location.

"Please, someone help me."I think to myself while writing frantically.

Hatter POV

Charlie and I approached the back door of the casino. I knocked loudly and a guy answered the door. He was a suit of course, looked pretty dumb to me.

"Hi." I say.

"Who the hell are you?" the door guard asks.

"We're the new act. Robinson and...Duckworth." I say cheerily as I am completely lying out my ass.

I point at Charlie behind me. "He's Robinson, and I'm Duckworth. We're guardians of the mesmeric partials of the cosmos."

"Huh?"

He really is as dumb as I thought. "Stage hypnotists."

"This is good fun." Charlie says giggling a bit.

Shut up Charlie! You're going to give us away early you old toad.

The guard looked back at him skeptically.

"He means the act. It's good fun when we do it." I say covering quickly and tossing about my hat as a distraction.

The guard completely buys the distraction and watches my hat as I throw it up. I can hear Charlie behind me making 'ohh' sounds. Lucky the trick worked and it landed back on my head, I pushed it down and smiled a bit.

The guard turned and looked back into the casino. "We got clearance for stage hypnotists?" I hollered.

"Shit! Didn't think about this part!" I whistle quickly. the guard turn towards me and I punch him in the face. He goes down for the count.

Charlie and I wait for a second to make sure nobody was coming, and then we head inside.

Once inside the two of them make their way up a flight of stairs and to the first floor. There's a huge open lobby with red chairs and tables sitting about. All of which are empty.

The only inhabitants of the lobby were a few women dressed in peculiar outfit adorned with diamonds and glittering with shiny rhinestones. None of them seemed to notice the odd pair that had just crossed the open room.

Hatter looked up and down a few staircases that they walked under. He was looking for a definite clue of Alice, but found none.

Charlie too looked around but mostly at just the white walls and the extravagance of the entire building.

"We should split up and search intermediate floors." said Hatter walking a little ways ahead of Charlie.

"Why?" asked Charlie.

Hatter POV

I turned around and looked at him. "Why? Because we don't know where she is."

That was obvious. Why are you asking this Charlie, have you lost your mind?

Charlie started talking about some mist and oracles. I don't really know I wasn't paying attention, I just assumed he'd completely lost his mind.

I went over to him. "What are you doing?"

The old knight made some huffing sound and then pointed straight ahead and started talking ridiculously quick. The only part I got out of it was a receptionist named Sheila.

"Shelia?" I ask, skeptical that anything he said made any sense to anyone but him.

"Or maybe it was Shakila, either way, lets go." Charlie said taking off in the direction he pointed.

I stood there for a second and looked after him. He was crazy, but if it helped to get Alice, I didn't care.

They went though several halls and took a bunch seemingly random turns until the arrived at a small work station.

A woman dressed like all the others sat behind the desk. "Can I help you?" She asked sweetly look at Hatter.

Charlie had wandered to the other side of the area and began talking to himself again.

"Yes. Do you know where Alice is? We were sent by the Queen to retrieve her but my friend over there seems to have forgotten where she was." said Hatter giving the receptionist a quick grin.

He glanced down at her name plate on the desk. It read SHELIA in bold block letters. "The old man was right."

"Oh, yes. She's in the truth room with the doctors. It's just through the left door." she said blushing a bit.

"Thanks." Hatter purred lightly and grabbed Charlie by the back of his armour. "Through here." He whispered and went over to the left door a small wave to Shelia and they went in.

They were standing in a small hallway of someones house.

Charlie immediatly began talking again and looking about the walls.

Hatter POV

I gave the hall one quick look over and came to assume it didn't go any further. I ran down the hall to a pair of sliding doors and threw them open.

Once open I almost fell inside, but I caught myself on the door panel. I looked up and saw Alice. My heart pounded a little fast. "She's safe. thank god."

"Jump!" I say leaning out a bit as Alice looks at me in surprise.

The two doctors looking in the window talked. this entire room was a head trip, but that was wonderland for you.

Alice got up on the writing desk in front of her and grabbed onto the chandelier, I caught her just as she hit the edge of the floor. Both of us narrowly avoided the falling glass the broke off of the chandelier bulbs.

I held her close for a second. "I thought you were gone." I muttered under my breath but she didn't hear me.

"How did you get in here?" Alice asked pulling away from Hatter.

"I dunno, ask Charlie." said Hatter looking to Charlie.

Charlie said something about being in Alice's head as he scaled the wall. He pushed lightly on a part and a door opened.

Hatter and Alcie ran out and Charlie followed after them.

The doctors sounded the alarm and the group was met with a not to friendly swarm of suits.

END CHAPTER

HAHA! Second one in a single day! I know I said I wouldn't have Alice's POv in here, but I just had to. If you're watching or have watched the show you'll see that I'm following the story line but filling in where we didn't get to see and places where I think something else should have happened with my own creative imagination. Oh ho ho. Oh it's all good fun! Review!
