AVA POV
CHAPTER 12
Damn fools, little did they know I had hid my necklace in the floorboards back at Hatter's shop. I smirked at myself in the mirror.
"Idiot's!" I yelled, "I know this is a trap!" I heard a groaning noise, and suddenly the floor gave away, and I was once again freefalling.
I screamed and shut my eyes at the fast approaching ground. Could I die? This was like a stimulation right? Like in some movies I had seen. What movie was it… oh yeah Spy Kids! Well if I died they would never find the ring. They most likely thought I left it in my world which is why they sent me back here to watch and see if I looked anywhere.
The scenery changed. I was no longer freefalling to my death but I was now inside my old house. The one I moved into with my grandfather. I had originally lived in New York with my mom till I was eight, but then we up and left to California. My mom said it was because she wanted to be closer to her dad. His health was failing and she wanted to spend his last days near him.
But I eventually figured out that was a lie. Grandpa's health was fine. Then five years after we moved, mom disappeared, and I moved in with Grandpa.
My eyes teared up while thinking of my mother. I recall my grandfather saying I looked so much like her, and I realized it was true. We both shared beautiful, blonde hair and shape of face. However, I had blue eyes whereas she had hazel, like Grandpa's.
I wandered around looking at my old house, when I came upon my old room. Flashbacks and memories came flooding in, some good some bad. I sat down on the bed and remained calm for a while.
"You know I'm not going to tell you right?" I spoke aloud in a monotonous voice. My room disappeared and I sat in chair in front of two very fat men.
"Hello I'm Dee," said the one on my left.
"And I'm Dum," said the one on the right.
I closed my eyes and spoke,
"TweedleDum and TweedleDee
Agreed to have a battle;
For TweedleDum said TweedleDee
Had spoiled his nice new rattle.
Just then flew down a monstrous crow,
As black as a tar-barrel;
Which frightened both the VILLIANS so,
They quite forgot their quarrel."
"I know what you're thinking," said one, "but it isn't so, no how."
"Contrariwise," continued the other, "if it was so, it might be; and it were so, it would be; but as it isn't it ain't. That's logic."
"What the hell are you two nitwits talking about?" I asked. They sighed.
"Just tell us where he ring is," said Dum (or Dee?).
"And we won't kill you," finished Dee (or Dum?).
"But you're going to kill me anyways," I said, "So if i don't tell I'll be dead and if I do tell you I'll be dead AND more people will probably die. So the better option, I believe, is to not tell you, for not only will I be out of this mad world, but you will probably be punished by the queen for killing me without telling you what you want to know. THAT's logic."
I smirked as I mocked them, but it vanished when on fatty brought out a stick and jabbed my side.
"If you are perhaps wondering," said one
"As to where you are," said two
"Then you must know,"
"That you are in the Truth Room."
"Where no one,"
"Has made it out,"
"On their own."
"Well," I started, "It's a good thing I'm not No One. For if I was I would not be here, because no one is nothing, I hope that's very clear."
There response was to just to shove more volts into my side. I screamed, and shut my eyes. My breathe came out raggedly and I had trouble keeping conscious.
"Excuse me," a voice said, "but you dropped this." I heard a crack and a groan and a thud as Dee/Dum went down. I opened my eyes a bit to see a man about my age knocking out the other mad doctor. I blinked and suddenly he was hovering over me saying he was sent to get me out of here.
Then a blacked out.
