Belle was now safely in Wonderland, she managed to get through Jefferson's hat and her husband hasn't found her... yet.
"First things first, I need to know who has seen Jafar." said Belle and took out the book when suddenly something snatched it from her hands and ran away.
Belle couldn't see who it was and she hadn't fully read the book so she couldn't remember what it was about and who had seen Jafar so she just wandered around. Belle was fascinated with all the magic around her, small things seemed large and large things seemed small. It was interesting how this realm was a whole new planet. She always wanted to travel the realms but she mostly stayed put but the places she did visit (Arendelle, the Enchanted Forest, Storybrooke and Camelot) were so different from Wonderland. Suddenly, Belle felt claws go on her shoulders and she was lifted into the air. Belle screamed and looked up to see a creature with the head, talons, and wings of an eagle and the body of a lion.
"Put me down!" screamed Belle.
"No." said the creature. "All threats of Wonderland must be sent to the rulers of Wonderland."
"Please let me go. I'm not a threat, I need help and I came to Wonderland to find it."
"All decisions are up to the rulers."
"Please, you have to understand. My name's Belle and I come from a place called Storybrooke. I came to Wonderland because my home is under attack from a villain who has come here. If the people here have got rid of him, maybe they can help me."
"I have no power in this, madame. All decisions are up to the rulers of Wonderland."
"I know what you are, you're a griffin. You're kind are symbolic creatures that represent power, wealth, courage and prestige. Please there has to be a way for you to let me go."
"As I've said before, you must be sent to the rulers."
"And who are the rulers?"
"The White King and the White Queen."
"Look, I have no idea who they are but they must be wicked. There was a ruler of Wonderland known as the Queen of Hearts but now she is dead."
"The Queen is dead?"
"Yes, she is. What's you're name?"
"Gryphon."
"What?"
"I am Gryphon the griffin."
Wonderland was a mad realm.
"Well... Gryphon, please. She is dead thanks to the people of Storybrooke. Please can you let me go."
"You seem like a nice woman who is brave."
"Thank you."
"But all decisions are up to the rulers of Wonderland."
Belle gave up hope, griffins are loyal in all the realms; Wonderland is no different. Gryphon put Belle down at a glamorous palace, it was made out of silver and it was shaped like chess pieces and there were many guards surrounding it. Guards chained up Belle and took her in the main room inside of the palace. Inside there were two thrones where two people were on the throne who Belle was guessing were the White Queen and the White King. The White Queen was on the right wearing a white gown and a silver crown and on the left was the White King who wore a king's uniform but looked very familiar...
"Will Scarlet?" asked Belle.
"Belle?" said the White King.
