Somewhere in the castle, on a dark and stormy night, the king is pacing his room, plotting a certain person's demise with his trusted knight.
"We must find Sky Quinton."The king said, pacing around the room,"Without the Jabberwockey, my Sister's followers will surely rise against me."
"My ugly little sister."he said, walking up the stairs to his balcony."Why did they adore her, but not me?"He stated, Quinton walking up behind him.
"I cannot quite fathom it,"he started,while the White Rabbit opened the door behind them, sniffing the room."You are far superior, in all ways"
"I know, but my sister, could make anyone fall in love with her."The king said, looking over the river of the the opportunity, the White Rabbit hops across the floor, hiding behind the seat the monkeys were holding up. "Men, Women,"He looks back into the room, as though he needed confirmation."even the furniture."
Looking under the seat, the White Rabbit looks at them, as though making sure they're not watching.
A moment of pause."Even, the king?"Quinton asks, taking a side glance at her. He glances at Quinton, before looking over the banister. As they looked down, they could see a man floating in the river, a golden crown on his head.
"I had to do it,"he said, looking at Quinton,"He would have left me."
Taking another glance at the pair, he quickly grabs the scrolls off the seat before hiding again."Your majesty,"
"Is it not better, to be feared, than love?"Quinton asked.
"Not certain anymore."the king replied, looking up at Quinton."I'd rather have the rebel. I don't need them, I have you."He said, hugging Quinton, as he put an arm around her.
Disgusted by the king, the White rabbit leaps out of he room.
Sky calmly walks to Ty 2, puts his headphones on a chair, and looks at what he made."They're wonderful. You must let me try one on."
He smiles at her."It is good to be working at my trade again."he said as hew sewed the hat smiles back at him."It's just a pity that you have to make them for him."
He slows down, as though realizing what he was doing."Where is the headphone with me, headphones..."he mumbles, as he looks around the room, as though conflicted with himself. Walking away from the table, he starts to destroy everything in the room, stopped by the chain latched onto his foot. Quickly grabbing him, Sky turned him around, saying his name to snap him out of his trance, while grabbing onto his face.
After a few seconds, he calmed down."Do you have any idea why a raven is like a writing desk?" he asked, not waiting for an answer before he continued on."I don't like it in here Sky, it's terribly crowded."he rambled on."Have I gone mad?"
Sky puts a hand on his forehead, as though he's checking his temperature."I'm afraid so, you're entirely bonkers,"he said,"but I'll tell you a secret, all the best people are."he said, smiling. Letting go of his face, Sky grabs his headphones."Here,"he said, putting them on him."That's better, you look yourself again."He told him, smiling.
"Hat man, where is my hats?"The king roared, causing them to snap their attention to the door."I am not a patient person!"
"I am told that they keep the vorpal sword in the castle."he started,"The rabbit will help it Sky, take it to the Derp Queen."he finished.
"We'll go to the Derp Queen together."Sky said vehemently.
Headphones smile."Why is it you're always too tall or too small?"He asked. Sky just smiled.
Walking out of the room, he starts to go down random corridors, until he reaches a door with Jerome and Mitch guarding a door nearby.
"Mitch!Jerome!"
"Sky!-"
"How you doing?"
They grabbed his hands."Where's the White Rabbit?"he asked.
They ignore her."How is it you're being so great big?"
"He ain't no great big, this is how he normally is."
"I was sure she was smaller when we met."
"No, he drank the pishalver to fit through the door, recall it?"
"Oh yeah."
Sky tries again."Where's the rabbit?"
"Over there-""Over there-"They said, pointing in different directions.
He walks down the hall, following Mitch and Jerome to Mallymkun and the rabbit."What are you doing here?"Mallymkun asked.
"I'm rescuing the Headphones"Sky told him.
"I'm rescuing the Headphones!"he bit back, pointing at his ignores him."The vulpar sword is somewhere in the castle. I need your help to find it."
Mallymkun takes out his sword, flinging it around."I don't take orders from big, clumsy, gal-oping-"
Sky cuts him off."Shoo."he said, waving his hand, motioning for him to go now.
Angry, he walks off. The rabbit wrings his hands nervously."What is up, Rabbit?"
"I know where the sword is."
Walking into the courtyard, the rabbit points at the building in the middle. "The sword's hidden inside." Sky walks to it."Be careful Sky."
Nervously, the rabbit follows him. As they walked closer, they heard a familiar sound."I know that sound."Sky said, looking inside, and finding the bandersnatch sleeping, bones scattered around.
Shaking his head, Sky backs away."I'm not going in there."
The rabbit looks at him curiously."Look what that thing did to my arm."he said, pushing the wrap on it up.
"Dear, oh dear. Why haven't you mentioned this?"The rabbit asked."It wasn't this bad before."He told him, putting the thing back on. He looks back at the rabbit, seeing him hyperventilating before fainting. Looking back at the door, he sees the bandersnatch. With a determined face, he leaves the door.
Somewhere in the castle, a mouse is looking in rooms.
"Headphones, where are you, headphones?"He calls out into an empty room. Unknown to him, Sky is right behind him.
"Mallymkun."The mouse turns around to him."Do you still have the bandersnatch eye?"
Taking it off his hip, he holds it up and pats it."Right here."
"I need it."Sky said, holding out his hand."Come and get it!"he said, taking out his sword and swinging it around. Quickly reaching over, he grabs it from him."Hey, give it back!"
Opening the doors, Shy walks down a hall, when he notices Quinton come up from behind. Quickly hiding the eye behind his back, before being pushed against the wall."I like you, Er"He tells Sky.
A woman hides behind the wall, intent of finding out what is happening."I like largeness."
"...Get away from me."Sky told him, pushing his arms away, and hurrying down the hallway.
Smirking, the hidden lady walks away, intent on finding the king.
Walking to the building, Sky opens the door, waking up the Bandersnatch. The Bandersnatch growls at him.
"I have your eye."Sky said, walking against the wall. Kneeling on the ground, he rolls the eyeball to it. The bandersnatch grabs the eye. Nervously, he starts to walk to the chest, watching the bandersnatch for any sudden movements.
When he got the the chest, he uncovered it, finding a lock on it. He started to tug it, hoping to break it, but couldn't quite do it. Stopping, he takes off the wrap, and looks at the injury.
The bandersnatch lays down, falling asleep. Watching the beast, Sky soon falls asleep.
Putting the swan hat on the king, he lets the king look at it."Next."
Putting another hat on, he let him admire it."You look stunning in that hat."
"Yes,"The king said,"next."
Taking that hat off, he puts another one on it."You're Majesty has never looked better"A woman with a long nose told the king."Another"
As they admire the hats, the woman who complimented the king, nose fell off. Looking down, he notices it.
"Ma'm, I don't wish to alarm you, but it mighty smells as though you dropped something."Headphones told her.
Quickly noticing what's wrong, she bends down and grabs it. Headphones starts to laugh uncontrollably at the person behind her. Pointing at another person, he continues to laugh, angering some.
Looking behind him, the king sees what the problem is."He's mad, don't mind along."
A woman with big ears then walks to the king, whispering to him.
As the king is told, his face goes red. "QUINTOOOOOOOOOOON!"
As the sun rises, Sky wakes up,and sees the beast. Nervously, he notices the key on the collar.
Slowly, he takes the key from it, hesitating when he growls, before grabbing the key. The beast backs away, and then licks his wound, healing it and leaving a scar behind.
Looking at the beast, he smiles."I guess we're even now."
They look at each other, before Sky unlocks the case, revealing the vorpal sword. Grabbing it, he looks at it before exiting the little room. Exiting the room, he glances at the beast, who is laying down, before leaving the courtyard.
