Chapter 12.

Nikita scratched her head, it felt good so she gave it another scratch. Cain was standing looking at Luna as if trying to decide if she was mad or just suffering some after Alice effect.

It was only then that he noticed her and bowed low "My lady Nikita" He spoke in flawless Russian.

"My lord Cain, how goes life in Team Avalon?"

Cain shook his head and told her about the death of Syphon and who had brought about his death. As soon as he had mentioned Cheshire Luna let a cry go.

"NO! That's not like her! She was never like that!"

"Well she is now!" Nikita angrily retorted then stopped as a motorbike screamed past closely followed by a flying man and a flying red headed woman.

The bike pulled a 360 degree turn and wheeled back to where she and her companions were standing. Nikita arched an eyebrow as Albian sat glaring at them.

"Is this a Avalonian reunion?" She snarled.

Nikita saw Johnathen and walking up to him kissed his cheek and then nodded at Jean Grey.

"I think" Nikita sighed "We all need a drink, there is something I have to tell you"

"Not now Nikki" Albian muttered "I have to find Angel"

"The Hatter has her" Johnathen told Nikita

"Shit, shit, shit" Luna screamed "This is not how the game is played.

Having enough of her Cain tapped her shoulder and whispered something in her ear then caught her and lifted her into his powerful arms "I hate hysterical women" He shrugged.

Angel hovered above the cliffs. Up here she was truly free able to just be what she was, no masks no labels.

However she did feel a little guilty for what she had said to her mum. After all it did not matter who she was, the woman had raised her as her own and she had taught her to look after herself.

At the end of the day as powerful as her mum was, even she could not cold bloodily murder someone. She lived by the laws of the land and that was what made her special but, Angie needed them arseholes to be taught a lesson.

She could do it, and she could do it in style, she could fry their minds inside out, send them into dream heaven or hell for the rest of their lives and a whole lot more, but she couldn't no matter how much she wanted to.

So if Hatter could do it for her and teach those bitches a lesson then more power to her. Still. Her family and friends cared for her and were worried about her but at the end of the day she was a growing woman.

Well sixteen but still old enough to do what she had to do. She was not like other teens, well not in Clacton anyway.

She sighed a little times like this she would go to the only friend she had outside the world of costumes and violence and who knew what she did for a living. But she was dead now and that...

That really really sucked.

Albian had smoked four cigarettes by the time Nikita had finished her sentence about demon games. When she had gone on to explain what Alice in Wonderland was really about she was half way through the bottle of Johnny Walker Black Label Cain had brought for her.

"So," The Rabbit bowed his head a little "You are the Queens Alice, I did wonder how she kept you quiet for so long... one of her first you were"

"My name is not Alice its Caroline!" Albian snapped making the Rabbit jump a little.

"Hey how do you think I feel" Cain scowled "I am a man and Cheshire still calls me Alice...to think I called her Lucky once!"

Albian cast a sideways glance at the third mortal and sniggered "That is um worrying Cain yes" She agreed.

Johnathen shook his head Cain was not known for his sense of humour but, he did know how to defuse a situation and make someone forget what they were angry about and occasionally he let the humanity he once had in abundance show.

Like now.

His friend needed to calm down and that was what he did.

"Question is" Jean sighed "What the hell are we going to do?"

"That's easy enough" Johnathen grinned "We're all going to wonderland."
