Chapter 5: Confusing Questions mean even more Confusing Answers

I guess Peter didn't want him to know about the fact that I've never been here and that he had the wrong girl.

For some reason Boris reminded me of one of the people that book described but I couldn't put my finger on it. Until I saw pink, loads of pink.

Boris followed my eyes to find he was pink and in a punk outfit. "What the hell, but…but…huh?" He looked at Peter as to think he knew the answer and he did, he just didn't want to tell him.

All I could think about was, 'Why pink? Of all the colors why pink?' He had the entire look described in the book, except for a gun. "Where's your gun? In here it says you have a gun."

Peter had an answer for my question, "Guns only appear when we are outside of Heartland, to protect ourselves." That didn't make much sense; the book (Wonderland 101) said that the territories were in a power struggle and when people crossed territories, things got rated PG-13 for violence. "Come along now, we need to get you to the Queen." Peter (basically) dragging Boris, still too stunned by his change to move for himself.

A thought stopped me in my tracks. It didn't take long for that thought to become words. "I thought you said the Queen was in my world?"

"The Queen here made clones, copies of herself to make her duties a little bit easier. Unfortunately one of the clones went rouge. She took the soldiers who believed she was the real one and left to your world…to eliminate the both of you."

By now we were half way through the forest when my thoughts became words again (stupid thoughts stay in my head!). "When did she get there?"

"Two weeks ago." Before I could consider this answer my phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Is this Alice Liddel?"

"This is she, who is this?"

"This is the police…. You may want to sit down."
