"Margaret Manchester and Lowell Manchester"

They stared at Lily in a stunned silence. Lily squirmed uncomfortably like she was under a microscope and being examined, usually when she was being stared at she had done something wrong as her mother had usually told her, it made her very uneasy being stared at. Cheshire cleared his throat and rested a paw on Lilys shoulder

" Im sorry Lily love for staring but… well… this is a bit of a shock to us for you see we know your Auntie, well she practicality saved us from a the Red Queen and her pet Jabberwocky she's a hero, we just well never expected anyone out of her family to be so…cruel" Cheshire sighed. Lily nodded and looked over at the Hatter who had sunk deeply in his chair his face emotionless except from his eyes that were changing colour gently and slowly from the beautiful emerald green to a deep blood red

"uh oh" Thackery whispered as he slowly hid under the table. Cheshire gave the Hatter a stern look

"Hatter" his voice came out softly but the warning clearly dripped off his words, but Lily could see it made no effect on the Hatter as his pink lips opened slowly and his words came out on a silent breath,"I'll kill them" the Hatter whispered "I KILL THEM" he screamed jumping out of his seat

"how dare they! How dare they harm such a sweet, kind, innocent young lady like Lily because they have never have the happiness that she could have! Because they have a marriage that is made on a tissue of lies! They have no right! They have no right I say I swear on my very soul! My heart! My hat! if I see them I will-"

"HATTER" Lilys shouted, she suddenly stopped putting her head down, she never in her life raised her voice to anyone before and now she was scared she knew shouting never ended well . The sound of Lilys voice snapped the Hatter out of his rant his eyes turning a pale yellow colour as he looked down at Lily head down refusing not to meet his eye he saw her gently tremble in what he suspect was fear he sat down next to her "Hey you ok ?" He asked Lily as she nodded gently Tarrant's calming voice soothed her but she was still nervous, she looked into his eyes to see they were back to his calming green

"Thank you" he whispered with a smile and pulled her into a small hug. Cheshire looked at his friend who was hugging the shaken girl with a small smile on his face Cheshire hadn't seen him smile like that since Alice had left wonderland, Cheshire's smiled turned into a grin

"Hatter my friend shall we take our friend to see the white queen" at this point Thackery jumped up with a smiling face "tha White Queen! She will like to meet our new guest!…. Spoon" he gazed in to the spoon as Mally nodded " I agree with Thackery the white queen would love to meet her Hatter it will be fun!" the small door mouse said with a grinThe Hatter nodded realising Lily from the hug "yeah I…I guess your right, Lily how about I shall take you inside for a new dress, heaven knows lass that you cant meet the white queen looking like that?" Tarrant smiled as Lily looked down at the cream dress now covered in a small spatters of blood from her head wound that she got after her fall before looking at the Hatter and nodding with a gentle smile. Tarrant gave a small smile back before leading her inside.

The Hatters house

Lily glanced in the mirror of the new dress Tarrant had brought in for her, it was a lilac colour with a corset like top and the bottom hung losely by her sides. On one side of the dress a small white dragon crawled up the fabric. Lily felt honoured to have a new dress but one made by Tarrant it made her feel like a princess she slipped on her cream shoes and walked down stairs and saw Hatter waiting with Cheshire

"Lily love you look beautiful" Cheshire smiled. Lily let a gentle blush grace her pale cheeks

"thank you Chess" she whispered. Tarrant smiled and rushed in to the other room, returning a few minuets later with a lilac top hat a little smaller than his own

"here" he gently put the hat on her head

"a lady should never be with out a hat" He smiled at her as she smiled back as they existed the house with Cheshire followed behind them.
