So sorry for the long wait! I am indeed out of the DHS shelter now so, Hooray! So, I must say this before I happen to forget. Virtually cookie to Kcoarra for guessing what happens and getting it relatively close! To the story!
Alice pushed firmly against the knave's shoulders, not wanting the touch of him. Ilosovic simply pressed further, trying to get her to succumb. Using his upper hand of strength, he moved around the chair, having a better angle to the sitting, still fighting, Alice. Picking up the small girl, he maneuvered her into his lap, holding her there with both of his hands. Hearing a raging howl from a few feet from the chair, Stanye quickly tightened his grip on Alice, and turning his head in the direction of the noise.
Alice, free from the Knave's lips finally, she turned her head to see Hatter, living up to his name. He stood in a stern position, feet spread, head down but still tilted up, and fist curled at his sides angrily.
"Wae ah ye doing there, ye Slurking urpal slackush scrum, wid me lassie in yer lap," The Hatter asked roughly, not holding back on his accent.
"Oh, so she's yours, Alice dear, are you in fact his?" Stayne asked, grabbing her bottom, trying to mess with the Hatter.
"Well, I know for a fact," She said whiling taking his hand of her rear end and sliding out of his lap quickly, "That if I'm anyone's, it is in fact, His." She said, stepping beside him, feeling both eye's on her the entire time, and grabbing his hand, eyeing a dark blanket on the ground by her feet,
"Well, I know this seems strange, but, I will need to talk to your master than, because well, I should tell the only Hightopp left what has in fact happened to his beloved home, after his has left it." He said calmly, suppressing a smile.
"Stayne, Why are you here?" Alice called out firmly, feeling braver next to her Hatter.
"At first it was to indeed, ravish you, which, I don't believe I could live and do that, so now, it is simply to deliver the news to Tarrant, in private." He said, being relatively blunt.
"Alice, do you trust him at all?" Hatter asked in Alice's ear, allowing only her to hear.
Of course I don't but I think you should at least try to see what he's saying. It could be the truth, at least he admitted to saying that he would, um…You know." She said turning to face him, blush at the inability to say the words. Hatter nodded to her words, squeezing her hand quickly before letting go, stepping to the woods close to the table at which Stanye still sat, and beckoned him forward while still walking closer.
Stanye immediately stood up and jogged to the Hatter, getting close to Alice and slowing down. "I will do what I came here for, both parts." He said quietly against her neck before biting, rather roughly, and trotting off. Alice automatically wiped off her neck, getting the excess salvia and blood from the bite of her neck to her hand, to her already grass stained dress from the Hatter.
Hatter walked forward, hearing the hesitation in footsteps, and the sound of crunch twigs and leaves once again. Tarrant stopped, leaned against a tree and waited for the Knave to reach where he had walked to. He looked to his left to see the taller man jogging towards him, looking tired already.
"What is the news?" Hatter asked when he was within hearing range.
"Well, it seems that a baby Jabberwocky has made it's home the remains of you old house." He said calmly, not trying to be nice or mean.
The Hatter automatically kicked the tree with the back of his foot, outrage by the news.
"I'll give you some time…" Ilosovic said, turning around, heading straight for Alice. The Mad Man believed it! Now, he'll be so upset he can't stop me from getting what's rightfully mine! He cut around a tree, wanting to get her before she could scream. He slinked behind a tree, just a few feet behind her, as she gazed up at the moon and stars.
He stepped out from behind it and jumped forward, landing quietly behind her. Without hesitation, he reached around her with one hand covered her mouth, with the other, automatically, raising her dress. Alice's muffled scream were a little louder than her thought they would be, so he whispered in her ear warnings of silence, telling her it would feeling better for both of them if she would just accept it, and stop fighting.
In Hell I'll stop fighting! Alice thought to herself as she slapped at his lower hand, that was trying to get to her knickers, while she mentally prepared herself to bite as hard as she could on Stayne' hand over her mouth.
With a sickening crunch, she broke through the glove, through his skin, a let his hand go so she could finally scream. "HHHAATTTTEERRRRRRR!"
With a break in the night, animals flew from the trees, into the air, other animals began to make their own little screams, and loud, fast footsteps.
How? I thought there weren't any more Jabbers! How could this be…..It is because you left! You didn't try to fix the place, or collect things the attract animals! You just got your hat and left like a filthy- The inner thought of the Hatter when he heard a loud shouting of his name come from the edge of the woods. Alice! Him leave! I pretty much gave her to him!
Before even thought of saving Alice, his feet began running very quickly to the direction of which the noise came from.
He got to the edge of the woods to see a crying Stayne rolling on the ground, clutching a bleeding hand to his chest, and a small Alice, crumpled to the ground, crying and shaking, whimpering his name over and over.
Hatter ran over to Alice, pulling her head to his chest, and began to pet it with one hand while the other rubbed her upper back. She leaned closer to him and began sobbing more, clutching the bottom of her dress, holding it down.
"Alice, darling, when you are ready to do anything else, just tell me," He said as he pulled the blanket he had brought out, and wrapped it around her.
