Ok, Chapter 2. It's shorter, I know. Please don't be upset with me. Hopefully, Chapter 3 will be longer.

Tarrant Hightopp (Mad Hatter)
Tarrant Hightopp was inside his hut, deeply wishing Alice would come back. He has missed her so much. It's been ages since she's been to Underland. She promised she would come back, yet she hasn't. Suddenly, there was a slight knock on the door, wrenching Tarrant from his thoughts.
"Yes? Who is it?" he called.
"Tarrant, it's Mirana. I came to give you wonderful news!" came the answer.
Tarrant shot up out of his seat and ran to open the door. Before opening it, he straightened his coat and tried to make his wild eccentric orange hair look decent in order to look nice in front of Mirana, considering she was queen and he didn't want to offend her. Tarrant swung the door open and became face to face with the White Queen.
"Ah, Mirana! It's so wonderful to see you! What news do you bring?" he greeted.
"I'm delighted to see you, too. The news I bring is wonderful, as I said before. You are going to be getting a visitor from Aboveland, Tarrant." Mirana said.
"A visitor? From Aboveland? Is it Alice?" he spoke in a rush and literally bouncing out of his shoes.
"Tarrant, calm down. In some form, it's Alice. I didn't really get the full details. I guess you will find out soon enough. She looks down the rabbit hole as we speak." Mirana calmly answered.
Tarrant felt a smile play across his face. Finally, after so many long, long years, Alice (or at least some form of her) was coming back. And to visit him! This was wonderful news!
"This is wonderful, Mirana! Thank you so much for sharing this with me." Tarrant said graciously.
"The pleasure's all mine, Tarrant. But be careful. This may not be what you are expecting." She said, warning building up in her tone.
"Yes, your highness. I will try." He promised.
"Please do. Well, I must be off! I have duties to attend to. Goodbye Tarrant!" the queen said as she was turning to leave.
"Goodbye, Mirana!" he called, just as she left the hut.
Tarrant shut the door and wondered over to the chair he was previously sitting in. He sat down and smiled with relief. He could not possibly wait until his visitor came. But until then, he was going to have to wait impatiently. Tarrant was suddenly struck with an idea. Mirana said his visitor was looking down the entrance to the rabbit hole as they spoke. That must mean she will be here in a matter of minutes! He stood up and walked to the door. Opening it, he stepped outside and walked towards the entrance Alice came to Underland to, knowing his visitor would be there.
So what did you think? Good? Bad? Review please!
