MY LOVLY DUCKIES! I must finish this story and my Sweeney Todd story. I haven been planning to write a story about Twilight. ( Do not steal my idea, I am about to post this new story) Bella...turning into a werewolf. I am not a huge fan of Twilight. But hey, It gives me life and something to do. Well, you gotsta wait for that. For now...ENJOY!

Stayne

It took my mind to comprehend for a moment that this girl was real. At first, I thought my mind was being cruel to me, but the more I looked at this girl, the more I realized she was real. Moments passed as silence made its self known to us all. Finally, I swooped down to pick the small child up. The mutt did not like this at all. He barked and growled, teeth bared and hair raised. I gave him a menacing look before he hushed up.

I turned to relize that the small creature was not there anymore. I looked around and saw her small blue form running ahead of me. " Sneaky little viper", I grinned as I got up and slowly walked a few strides to her.

She was feisty at first, trying to outrun my hand. She did not get far before my hand enclosed around her fragile waste. She kicked, and screamed, and she certainly curse a little as she pummeled her tiny fists against my hand. A laugh slipped through my lips as I watched her struggle in vain.

" My, my, my, what do we have here? ", I asked as I slowly looked her over. She had beautiful golden hair with streaks of sandy brown. Her eyes were a rich and vibrant dark brown. If a man were to gaze long enough and deep enough within those eyes, he would surly lose his soul in their depth. Her lips were plump and inviting.

As I continued my inspection, the little firecracker spoke. " So are you just going to stand there and stare at me all day?", she huffed as she rested her head on her left hand. This little jester left me complex for a moment. In all my years in Underland, I have never met a creature such as this.

" In case you havent noticed, your in no posistion to smart off to me my dear." She just rolled her eyes and sighed. This got a small chuckle out of me. " Were are you from girl?", I asked as steel coated my tone again.

She looked up at me with her big chocolate eyes before answering me. " I have a name you know. It's Umm, from Umbrage." I twirled this around in my mind for a moment. " Umbrage you say? I don't think I have ever heard of that place." She just shrugged.

" It is not very well known", she said in a matter-of-fact sort of way. Rubbing my chin with my free hand, I concentrated on this. It sounded familiar to me, but at the same time it sounded made up.

" Are you naturally this small? She stiffened for a moment, as if a nerve had been struck. " No, I am not. I use to be taller then this. But, some mean tricksters in my homeland poisoned me with this drink to make me smaller." I couldn't help but laugh at this. " Foolish girl." She looked at me defensively. " Well it is not my fault. How was I suppose to know?

Her accent didn't sound right to me. She didn't sound like she was from here. " Yes...well." The dog was all but forgotten as he cleared his throat. " I still haven't found Alice yet", he said in a defeated tone. " I shall look for her some more.

" And with that, he left. It was just me, and Umm. " Perhaps you should put me down and I will be on my way", she suggested as she wiggled her way out of my grasp. She stood on my clutched fist and began to skip and maneuver her way awkwardly and quickly down my to the ground.

I fumbled to grab her, but she was to slippery for me. Right before she reached the ground I knelt and grabbed her, much to her annoyance. " Ah ah ah! Not so fast my pretty! Now where do you think you are going? She let out a annoyed huff. " I was going to go back underneath my hat", she grumbled. I turned to look at the hat and froze.

Wasn't that the same hat as that disgusting Mad was wearing? Slowly the hat made it within my grasp. I looked closer to it and to my amazement, found a single...orange...hair. " Where did you get this?"

She was silent a moment. " I found it on the ground. It makes a perfect shade." I took in her words for a moment as my grasp on her fragile waist tighten.

Her discomfort was easy to tell upon her face as she gasped for a little bit of air. Just then, a flash of memory danced behind my eyes like a exotic dancer. Mad. Running. Throwing his hat. With a scorn on my face, I got walked back to my horse.

Something wasn't right here. I could feel it, but for now. More important things were at hand. Mounted upon my horse, we began to trot to Red's castle. " Wait, arn't you going to let me go?" Showing her into my saddle bag, I kicked my horse into a full gallop. " No, I think it's best you stay with me.

Alice

I stared up in horror at the one eye figure in front of me. How could I have been so foolish as to let him see me?

Bayard barked, distracting the cyclopes for a moment. My perfect chance to run. I began to run with all my might. It wasn't long before I hear loud, thunderous thuds behind me. The breath leaked from my lungs as something grasped my waist. A soft grunt escaped my lips as I was brought face to face with my tormentor.

"My, my, my, what do we have here?", he purred in amusement. I couldn't really breath that well with his blasted grip on me. Instead of focusing on that, I focused on his features. He had high cheek bones that shaped his strong face.

He had a pointed chin and a fine jaw bone. His nose was a bit to pointed and with a small hook, but other then that he had a handsome face. He had long black hair, that curled like something wicked and was the color of ink. It was like a black lion's mane, showing power and authority.

But his eye, his eye is what got to me. They it was a pool of sin. Just looking within it. His other eye was covered in a plain red heart. I could see a scar start from the top of his temple, to underneath his right cheek bone.

But, as I looked into his good eye, I felt like I was being devoured, like my soul itself was being burned away. Underneath his all his armor, I could tell was a marble Greek statue. So very well chiseled and defined. I

shook my head, and suddenly, I felt very aware of his gaze. I could feel him looking me up and down. I had to break this. "So are you just going to stand there and stare at me all day?" He looked surprised by my sudden outburst, and quite frankly, so was I. That was not lady like, but around this man, composing my gentle nature would be a challenge.

"In case you haven't noticed, your in no position to smart off to me my dear." I rolled my eyes, which got a chuckle out of him. I was beginning to become annoyed. " Were are you from girl?", he demanded me like a slave. I was put on the spot.

" Umm, from Umbrage. For a few moments it was nothing but question after question. I was impressed with myself how I could lie so easily. Just when I thought I could be set free, Bayard broke our silence. "

I still haven't found Alice yet, but I will go look right now." And with that he left. It was just me and Stayne. My heart began to beat normal. For a moment I thought he was going to give me away.

His grip on my was tighter than before since my near escape. I had to hold back a giggle from that.

Everything was silent for a moment before his hand and whole body stiffen. He slowly picked up my Mad's hat and scrutinized it. " Where did you get this hat?", he asked in a monotone voice. It was hard to read his, or anybodies emotions with that tone of voice.

I stiffened. What was I going to say? I found it on the ground. It makes a perfect shade." He just stared at the hat a moment longer before striding toward his steed. It was a wicked looking thing.

It was covered in fine metal with delicate red swirls. It was quite beautiful really, if you ignored the horses fangs and evil looking eyes. I began to feel panicked. " Aren't you going to let me go?", the question popped up as he mounted his steed and kicked it to a trot. Before I had my answer, he roughly shoved me in his horse saddle, and into a unfamiliar darkness.

What do u all think? Its been a while my loves. but im back
