I had some fun rhyming :)
Chpt.34
"What happened last night?" Carter Grills questioned. Livy looked over at him. He was tied to a pipe next to her and was littered in bruises. On his head was a party hat and on either side of the hat were fake rabbit ears. Livy looked at herself to find a party hat also on her head and she was wearing a blue dress.
In front of them was a tea set.
"I have no idea." Livy sighed.
"It's very uncivil of you two to sit down without being invited." A voice spoke and Livy and Carter looked up to see the Mad Hatter a.k.a Dr. Jervis Tetch.
I hate Alice in Wonderland. Livy thought with a sigh. She just wanted to hang out with Carter. He managed to score some tickets for a baseball game and Damian was out of town.
~*~*~*~Several Hours ago~*~*~*~
"You don't think your boyfriend is gonna stab me for taking you to a baseball game?" Carter questioned and Livy nodded.
"Yeah, it should be fine. Damian knows that we're just friends and he doesn't like watching baseball very much. This sounds like fun." Livy grinned.
Not only did Damian dislike watching baseball, but he disliked watching any sort of American sport. He found them all idiotic and pointless while Livy was easily entertained by sports, especially baseball.
"Who're you rooting for? The Gotham Goliaths or the Philadelphia Phillies?"
"Phils all the way." Livy smiled and Carter looked at her with mocked offense.
"You're not going to be routing for your home team?"
"The Phillies are better. End of story."
"They have been total shit all season."
"They're just having a bad season. They'll come back." Livy shrugged.
"I can't believe I'm taking a Phillies fan to this game." Carter pouted. "Philly fans are the worst."
"Damn right." Livy smirked.
The two were almost in the stadium as they walked passed an ally.
"Would you to be interested in the Caucus race instead of going to your baseball game?" the voice from the ally inquired.
Before Livy or Carter could respond, a gas like mist wafted over to them and they passed out, everything fading to black.
~*~*~*~*~Now~*~*~*~*~
"Time for a riddle. Why is a Raven like a Writing Desk?"
"I don't have time for this kind of shit." Livy grumbled, glaring down at the powder blue dress she was wearing along with the white apron and black hairband.
"Now dear Alice, I find that very rude." Mad Hatter pouted.
"Oh well, I don't know why I'm here Sir Hatter. Can you undo the rope around me so I may kick your ass?" Livy questioned in a sickly sweet voice like Alice in the Disney movie.
The Mad Hatter did not seemed amused in the slightest.
"Now dear Alice, I don't wish to force you to cooperate, but if I must, I will put this on you so you can participate." He stated, showing one of his head bans that Livy recognized as the tech he uses to control the wearer.
"Oh Mr. Hatter how very sorry am I. This looks like such lovely cake. Will there be any pie?" Livy inquired.
"What the hell is going on?" Carter questioned, but noticed the look that Livy shot him. "Is what I would never say. For what could possibly go wrong on this very beautiful day." He rhymed.
"Now that's the spirit all of my fine friends. I hope you don't mind the ropes. They're to make the party never end." Hatter grinned. Livy was slowly cutting away at the ropes with her pocket knife she had concealed well enough that Hatter didn't see when he changed her clothing, but she knew she had to play along if she wanted to keep the mind control band off her head.
"Mister Hatter is it really time for tea. It feels like it is midnight. How could that be?"
"Your head is still in a tizzy from the gas that made you dizzy. You my dear are simply mad but I must admit your rhyming isn't bad."
"Why thank you Mister Hatter, I find my rhyming right. For I would read poems all the way through the night."
"Curiouser and Curiouser that I came across such a find. You my dear are perfect and I wish you would be mine."
Livy's eyes widened in surprise. This man couldn't be serious. She hastened her movement trying to cut loose from the ropes.
"While that is very flattering I simply can't be wed. I actually have a boyfriend that I have still yet to bed."
Carter's eyes widened in surprise and Livy shot him a glare.
"Is the white rabbit the boyfriend you speak? For I am not weak. With a slice of a knife I can make things right. I will not turn a cheek." He informed taking out a knife of his own.
"There is no need for violence that certainly isn't nice. I wish for you two to get along and please oh please don't fight." Livy finally had the ropes undone and noticed that the Mad Hatter was about to attack Carter anyway.
"I'm sorry my dear but I must admit. This boy here is giving me a fit. He must away and die at once. Off with his head, I say, before lunch."
Livy sprung from her seat and took the man by surprise, knocking him unconscious before Carters very eyes (A/N: I couldn't pass that rhyme up).
"Nice rhyming." Carter smiled as Livy got him out from his chair.
"Thanks." Livy grinned as she pulled Carter up from the chair. "We better call the police."
"Yeah." Carter sighed as he took off the rabbit ears. "It's a shame we had to miss the baseball game."
Livy looked over at the unconscious Mad Hatter with hatred.
"Damn you." She grunted. A baseball game wasted on a maniac. She sourly thought,
I hate Alice in Wonderland.
