Blossom in Wonder Land

Chapter 3: The Hatter and the Hare

I winced from the pain but I hoped that I would wake up. As I opened my eyes I found that I was still dreaming. "Odd. Pinching normally works" I said to myself till Buttercup said "I could stab you with my sword." she then pulled a sowing needle, ran over and stabbed my foot. "Ouch!" I said as I winced from the pain. 'that's odd…It should have worked' I thought to myself until I heard a loud roar in the distance. I turned to see where the sound was coming from and in the distance was a large white creature with two horns, it was covered in white fur except for the brown arrow that started from his head and ended at his beaver like tail. Its under belly was also not covered in fur, but he had pure black eyes that gave off a terrifying glare.

"The Banditsnatcher!" yelled Brad and Tuck in unison. Everyone then began to run. Brad grabbed me by the arm and dragged me along with him. Behind the great beast was an arm of knights. They seemed almost like poker cards with spears, swords and nets. They ran after us. As we continued to run a brownish white dodo bird ran up next to me, Brad, and Tuck. He had glasses on and a light brown coat on as well. "Otto?" asked Brad as we continued to run.

"Listen! Take her to the Hare and the hatter! They'll know what to do and hurry!"

Right before he could say any more a red knight caught him in a net. I looked behind me to see that Danny had also had been captured. Buttercup had vanished and the Banditsnatcher was chasing after us. Then Brad and Tuck let go of me and split up. I was left by myself as I continued to run. The Banditsnatcher was getting closer and closer. I made my way out of the mushroom forest when it hit me…'this is a dream. So it can't hurt me' I thought to myself as I turned to the great beast as it ran up to me and roared. I tired to not show fear but in reality I was shaking with fear.

'what is she doing?' a voice asked but I just ignored it and focused on the beast. It roared again, and I wanted nothing more then to run but I whispered to myself "it can't hurt me, can't hurt me." over and over again until I heard Buttercup say "Get out of there you stupid girl!" I looked to see her run towards the Banditsnacher and jump up on its head. She then pulled out her sowing needle and pocked it in the eye. She then pulled it out. It was gross but before I could react the Banditsnacher scratch my arm. I winced from the pain but I took his moment of shock and pain to my advantage and ran away. I was now completely out of the woods and I soon met up with Brad and Tuck who were sitting on the grass. I glared at them a bit and said "You ditched me." Brad rubbed the back of his head as his cheeks dusted with a light pink color as he explained "Well It was a Banditsnatcher there one of the greatest beast feared besides the Jabberyywaky of course."

"ya and you can't believe that we would risk our necks for someone that isn't the real Blossom." said Tuck as he got to his feet and walked over to me. Brad got to his feet as well and said "We have to visit the hare and the hatter." I tilted my head to the left in confusion and asked "The who?"

"The March Hare and the Mad hatter." explained Tuck as he grabbed me by my arm and pulled me along with him. Brad followed behind him as we traveled to who knows where. We traveled for hours until we came to a tree that was in the middle of know where and seemed to have two arms. Both with a sign on it that lead to different directions. "Lets go west" said Tuck as he grabbed my arm and tried to pull me with him but only to have Brad grab my other arm and say "NO we go east" they began to fight again but this time it was what direction we would go. I was being pulled back and forth between the two boys. It felt as if my arms would have fallen off at any minute. They continued to fight until a loud sound echoed threw the mountains that where a good few hundred miles away. The noise almost sounded bird like. I looked in the sky for any sign of what it could be and soon enough I saw that it was a large bird that had white and black feathers. It was flying right at us. 'duck Blossom' a voice in my head told me. The large bird flew at us and as soon as it was close enough I ducked. But sadly it had grabbed Brad and Tuck. "Brad! Tuck!" I yelled out but it was to late…the bird had gone east. 'It a dream so they should be fine' I thought to myself as I got to my feet and headed west.

As I headed west I soon found myself in another forest. It was eyrir and rather mysterious. It was shrouded in mist and the trees where so tall that it blocked out the sun's light. I continued to walk though the forest until someone said "Looks like you've run into something with wicked claws." I turned around to see a black cat with green eyes that where starring right at me.

Before I could ask who he was he vanished. I stayed there in shock for a bit till he reappeared next to me and asked "Tell me what did that to you?" I jumped back a bit but remembered 'Its just a dream' then I replied "It was the Banditsnatch" I said as he smiled and replied "The Banditsnacher?" His body then disappeared and his head moved close to may arm. "What are you doing?" I asked as he replied "It needs to be purified by someone with an evaporating skills." his head moved closer and closer to my arm…I became extremely nervous and said "I'll be fine once I wake up." He looked at me in disbelief for a bit but then his smile returned to his as he said "At least let me bind it for you." he then pulled out a pink cloth and wrapped it around my cut…he then asked "What's your name?" I cleared my throat and said "Blossom." He took a step back and asked "They Blossom?" I looked around nervously and replied "Yes but there's been a debate about that." He's smile vanished again as he said "I never get involved with politics" he then gave a huge sigh and said "Well you best be on your way." He began to fly away until I stepped forward and asked "Can you help me find the Hare and The Hatter?" He vanished and in a blink of an eye he then said "I think I can." He then vanished again. I looked around for any trace of him but there was none. A voice in the distance then asked "Coming?" I turned around to see the cat off in the distance. I followed after him as he vanished and disappeared throughout the forest…as I ventured deeper and deeper I soon found the light at the end of the forest. I walked out to the opening to see…
