Monday:

I finally bought myself a MirrorPhone. Thanks to the arena battles, I managed to afford it quite well. However, I can't figure out the darn thing since all I saw was little square pictures on the screen. I spent an entire class period trying to figure out how to use it. I touched the screen, which displayed different visuals.

Blondie had taught me how to use it at lunch, telling me that I can chat through the screen or through voice. She even told me about the MirrorNet and how it allows me to browse through the school's website. There's even hexting where letters are typed through the screen instead of writing. Quite fascinating.

There's even something called Fablebook, which allows me to keep in touch with people throughout the land. I registered an account and I was recommended to post my profile picture. Blondie had told me that there was a camera feature on my phone that allowed me to take pictures. She suggested a selfie, which meant a picture of myself at close range. I was uncertain, but I complied.

I used both of my hands and pressed the button. What I didn't know until I saw the picture was me with a normal smile and Hunter making me look ridiculous from behind by using his fingers to look like I have horns. He gave a soft laugh when he saw the picture.

Nevertheless, I decided to use that as my profile picture.

Blondie asked me to watched her MirrorCast. When I saw it, I scrolled through a huge ton of episodes and watched a few. The time ranges between 10-30 minutes. Sometimes there would even be 45-60 minute shows. She said that I my interview would be scheduled Wednesday. She seems to upload them on a daily basis.

After classes ended, I decided to train as usual. While I was supposed to practice my spear skills, I felt like my sword skills are starting to dwindle a bit. So, it was unanimously decided that I would train my sword once again. Of course, I would use a wooden training sword for this.

However, my training was interrupted when I saw Lizzie Hearts walking towards my direction.

"Lizzie, what brings you-"

"Save the pleasantries, Cayden. Why aren't you practicing you strategy skills?" she asked in a rather stern tone. She was referring to one of the topics in Kingdom Management.

"B-but strategy skills are only in the military section of the subject." I protested.

"That's still not a good excuse as to stray away from that. If we ever become partners on an assignment, you better not royally screw up!" Lizzie threatened. I gulped.

"But we aren't." I replied weakly.

"I'm still not taking any chances! I will need an alliance with a competent leader rather than a foolhardy warlord in the future. Come on!" she said as she dragged me by the arm.

"W-where are we going?" I asked, while feeling the vice grip from her hand.

"To meet a friend of mine."

Apparently, her friend was Alistair Wonderland, captain of the chess club and son of Alice in Wonderland. Alistair had quail-brown hair, baby blue eyes, bangs and peach skin.

Sitting next to him was Bunny Blanc, another friend of Lizzie's and the daughter of the White Rabbit. Bunny had light pink skin and shoulder-length white hair with a fringe. Bunny seemed to incorporated stopwatches and clocks in her outfit.

Lizzie walked off, telling both of her friends to report to her of my progress.

"Sorry about Lizzie. She's very determined with these kinds of things." Bunny apologized on her behalf.

"Nothing to apologize, but what is with her behavior?" I asked.

"She would find potential 'subjects'," Alistair said 'subjects' with quotation marks, "and gain them as future allies."

"But really, she's trying to make friends." Bunny added.

"Is dragging me to train at a certain subject a way for her to make friends?" I asked with a skeptical eyebrow.

"Nah, it's the first time and I wonder what had her do this." Alistair answered.

"Maybe she has a soft-spot for Cayden?" Bunny suggested.

"Or...she's quite high maintenance." I said.

"Uh..." Bunny was uncertain as Alistair shrugged.

"I wouldn't go that far." Alistair said. "She's almost inherited her mother's mood swings."

"Mood swings?" I repeated with slightly widened eyes.

"But she's actually a sweetheart." Bunny added. "That's why we're friends with her."

"I would guess that she would want you to make an easy choice with your dilemma." Alistair said.

"You two know?" I asked, slightly surprised.

"She told us. And what better way to help you than a game of chess?" Alistair answered.

I lost. Three times in a row. I've tried using strategies, but all of them were countered by Alistair's. I even cornered his king at one point, but he knocked my queen out with his knight.

"Shouldn't you take it easy on him, Alistair?" Bunny suggested, taking pity on my losses.

"Sorry, Bunny. But Lizzie said that I have to go harsh on him. Or it's-"

"I know. Off with your head." Bunny said with a sigh.

"No hard feelings, right?" Alistair asked.

"None at all." I deadpanned, though this was meant in good jest.

While playing a couple more chess games, we would divulge in conversation. Alistair was quite a smart guy who knew how to put his brain to use. He would even ask me riddles that I wouldn't get, but figured out eventually. Bunny was quite an intelligent girl as well, though she seems to be timid about it. However, I will give her points for her maturity. Throughout the time, I noticed something about these two.

Whenever they glanced at each other, they would look away and I would see the faint blushes on their cheeks. It's almost like the situation with Cupid's, but this was more mutual. Pretty easy if they were a bit more extroverted with their feelings.

But what can I do? Nothing. This wasn't my business and I have no right to interfere. Besides, I was never good at romance.

By the time the sun had set, Alistair decided to end it by the score of 9-0. Bunny had hastily left after she had transformed into a...literal bunny, saying that she has to do "the...thing at the...place". Alistair looked dejected, but I decided to cheer him up with some conversation while walking to his room.

"You know, you should join the chess club. We're looking for members." he suggested.

"Well, if it'll get Lizzie off my ear about kingdom management classes, then I guess I'm up for it." I replied.

"Hexcellent!" he exclaimed in excitement. Was the word 'hexcellent' a term for 'excellent'? I would scratch my mind about that.

"I gotta hext Lizzie. She's really demanding when it comes to these things." he said. "I'll see you later." With that, he went back in his room.

When I watched the MirrorCast, Blondie had ended the episode by suggesting the viewers to send in questions for me to answer. Well, that's...somewhat pleasant. I mean, I don't know what questions would be asked. I can only hope this would end well.

A/N: And that's where you, the readers, come in. You can send me as many questions as you want. Be it through reviews or PMs, just send them in!

And another note, I was wondering if any of you would like to see Cayden be a part of the Way Too Wonderland story or not? I've been questioning myself about it as well.

So who do you want him to interact with next? As usual, same or different.
