Rabbit's face lit up when the Hatter mentioned her home. "Good idea," he said, closing his eyes to concentrate back on C.C..
Hat-T mentioned her home. Perhaps that is the best place for a while? We can meet you there.

Cat grimaced a little, but nodded habitually, knowing that Rabbit couldn't see the motion and it was ridiculous. Yes, all right. But I'm not sure what we'll be in more danger from, the queen or that house...The pain in her eye had dwindled at the thought of Hat-T's house, so it had to be safer there. "All right, we're moving. Everyone stay close. Getting lost now would be... deadly."

Rabbit turned back to Hat-T.
"Your house is our next destination," he said with a slightly frantic expression. "We can meet Alita and the others there."
Walrus popped out of Alita's lap, waddling over to C.C..
"I don't move very fast . . ." he whimpered, looking to the ground. Scuffing a flipper in the dirt, he sighed. "Is there any way one of you would carry me? I'm not that heavy. . . ."
Heartless flit about the shadows, nearing the spot where he had last left the others.
The girl will be given to the Queen, he reminded himself, even if it takes my death to deliver her.
Glancing over to make sure the small group of cards still followed him, the wraith focused on his task. Betrayal - he was used to. It was time to play his own hand in the process of betraying.

"Yeah, I can." Cat said, leaning down to scoop up the creature. "Let's get going. We need to move as fast as we can."
'Heartlesss... how could you?' She thought to herself as she took off into the woods, glancing over her shoulder only briefly to make sure that Alita and Yang were following. 'You saved me from the Queen after she killed my father... why would you betray us to her?

Hat-T beamed with glee. She always loved having people over. Even though the situation wasn't one of the best, she still couldn't help feeling happy that she'd be having visitors, and a potentially new friend.
"This way." she said, grabbing Rabbit's hand and leading him through the odd jungle. No matter where she was in Wonderland, one place she was always sure of finding was her mansion. Though they had started out walking swiftly, she soon started pulling Rabbit into a run, excitement getting the best of her despite the fact that they were in danger. Within thirty minutes, they were at her home. It seems the outside of it had changed to look like a pile of oddly shaped, multi-colored boulders. Various palm trees were sticking out at the top of it. Only the giant revolving glass door at the base stayed the same. Past the main door stood the great hallway and after that was the weird living room.
There, on the angled couch lay a young man in a brown tweed suit.
Although the Mad Hatter Mansion was rather strange by Wonderland standards, she loved it dearly. She dropped Yin onto the gray couch right next to the sleeping Doormouse and headed off to the kitchen to make some tea. At least the teapots in the house did not shoot sparks out at her nor change its contents without warning.

The blush on Rabbit's face faded during the long run, and his large eyes widened even more when he saw Hat-T's house. He'd seen it before, but it was always different on the outside. The tall man was pulled into the home, and he shook his long layered hair away from his face in order to look around.
"A good run," Rabbit said, pushing his glasses back into place. He was still working on recovering his breath, and leaned on the counter beside Hat-T.
Walrus beamed a chubby smile, and clapped his fins together happily. He pressed his wet little muzzle to C.C.'s cheek, leaving a small wet patch - a kiss of thanks. Burrowing into her arms, the fuzzy little animal settled in for the trip.
"How long do you think it'll take?" he asked after a few minutes of walking.
Heartless paused in the clearing. They had moved on.
With a wordless sigh that echoed about the trees, the shadow set the Sevens, the cards, to seek the path the group had taken.
Were they aware of his following them already?
Getting a silent signal from one of his minions, Heartless nodded, and flitted after the group of Wonderlanders that led Alita. He would finish his work.
The wisp of darkness ducked under branches as he moved swiftly, making himself slow down a tad for the sake of the cards following him. Even with the tall Wonderland trees, Heartless' seven and a half foot form had to duck down to avoid stray leaves and twigs.
With his dozen minions following him closely, Heartless continued after his prey.

"Not long I... hope..." Cat gasped. "No... no, he can't have- sevens?!" She clutched her eye as information poured in. "Too late... everyone grab hold." 'This could kill me, but there isn't another choice.'
Cat had often been scolded by Rabbit (and yelled at by other Wonderland denizens) for popping up seemingly out of nowhere. 'The oldest trick in the Cheshire's book' her father had called it. Transferring Walrus to Alita's free arm, she gripped both hers and Yang's arms (probably a little too tightly, she'd apologize for claw marks later) and wished them all away. She heard startled gasps from... someone as Alita began fading out of existance. When she felt both Alita and Yang disappear from her hands, she tried to vanish herself as well- only to feel a stabbing pain through her eye and fall to the ground. "Aargh..."

[They were all probably busy yesterday. It's the weekend after all :) There's now two feet of snow outside my house :D I'm snowed in! Supposedly the snow isn't going to stop until tomorrow where I'm at]
The woman only nodded in agreement at Rabbit's words as she filled a metal kettle with water and tossed in a tea bag. She placed it on the stove and turned on the fire. The only things she knew how to work in the bizarre kitchen were the sink, the stove, and the cold metal closet that held the food. All the other fancy contraptions she saw the previous Mad Hatter use, but Hat-T never managed to ask about them nor did she dare touch. At least the other rooms of the house weren't as complicated as this place. The bedrooms, the bathrooms, the library, and the living room were all uneventful. She didn't need to bother with the lights either. They turned themselves on and off depending on whoever needed them.
The only other person who knew how to use the mad house was Doormouse, but the narcoleptic spent most of the day and night asleep. He was only up when he needed to eat and it was Hat-T's job to wake him at least twice everyday. The brown haired man would devour a lot and so two meals would often be enough to keep him alive and happy.
"Want cake?" she asked Rabbit. She opened the cold closet and pulled out a rather large, and fancy looking cake. A quarter of it had already been taken by Doormouse. Placing it gently on the counter before her white clad companion, she pulled out small saucers, forks, and a cake knife. Hat-T immediately began carving out a small portion for herself.

((I'm guessing that Alita and the others are now at Hatter's place? :XD))
Rabbit smiled and accepted a slice of cake - why not? They were still waiting for the others.
He stuttered his thanks before taking the small place from Hat-T.
"My thanks," he was able to get out before coughing in embarassment.
Heartless felt a ripple in the darkness - Alita and two of the others were now gone. The shade flitted about where he had last seen them, and found only the Cheshire Cat. The woman was collapsed in a heap, and in the few seconds it took for the Seven's to catch up, Heartless had knelt beside C.C., and carefully lifted her in his cold arms.
"Where are they?" the shadow's voice echoed about the Cat's head, but his heat-absorbing grasp remained gentle. "Where, C.C.?"
The dozen of Seven's that loitered around awaited their next order patiently, but Heartless ignored them. His eyes, or the darkness where they should have been, looked down at the girl's form, and his stitched arms tightened about her slightly.
Where does my loyalty truly lie?

[I'll go with that assumption and just edit this later if they're elsewhere :) ]
Just as Hat-T was about to take a bite out of her slice, a loud thud could be heard coming from the floor above them.
"Library..." came the sleepy reply from the living room. It was Doormouse. Hat-T rushed over to the living room to see if he was finally up, but to her dismay, he was only up to say where the new guests were and had gone back to sleep. She looked back at Rabbit and ran up a long flight of stairs. She crossed a hallway lined with similar looking doors, finally stopping at one in the middle. The only difference this door had with the other doors was that it had a key perpetually stuck in the door knob. The great library took up two floors worth of space. Everything within it was oversized, down to the books that were at least two feet tall. In the middle of the room lay Yang, a small fuzzy creature with two large teeth, and a girl with strange clothes and a backpack.

((Well, that's where Cat was trying to send 'em. They can make themselves end up elsewhere if they EVER GET BACK ON))
"Like I would tell you?" Cat laughed bitterly. "Traitor." She spat, but did nothing more- attacking Heartless like she yearned to do would be suicide, surrounded by Sevens. "I would die before I'd betray my friends. Just take me to your soulless Queen and get it over with."

Rabbit followed Hat-T up to the library, his eyes widening when he saw the room full of oversized objects. His observation came to a quick close when he saw Alita and the others in the middle. The tall white man stepped over to the human and brushed a hand against her cheek.
"Unconscious?" he said aloud, to no one in particular.
Sitting beside the three, Rabbit let a slight smile grace his lips.
"Now that they are here - where's C.C.?" His large brown eyes widened drastically, and he popped back up to his feet. "Where is the Cheshire Cat?" Worry coated his movements, and the tall man immediately stood still and closed his eyes, concentrating.
Cat? Where are you?
Heartless said nothing in response to C.C..
"Follow," he whispered to the Sevens, clutching the Cat to him. He melded into the shadows slowly, the darkness consuming both of them in thick wisps. When the blackness cleared, the two of them were standing in the Queen's domain.
"Her majesty?" The wraith reached out his voice to find the queen, waiting silently for a response.
((If you want, you can still stick another character in. :P I just wanted to put C.C. in some danger. ^_^))

Rabbit? Heartless has me... he's going to take me to the Queen. A lone tear dripped down her cheek. Please, save Alita while you have the chance. Bye bye, bunny boy. Cat cut off her contact with the nearly albino man. Without enough energy (or concentration, curse that Guardian Mark!) to wish herself away, Cat knew what was coming- the Queen would kill her, just like she'd killed her father.

"They have her," Rabbit opened his eyes, which were full of sorrow. "Heartless has C.C. with him, and he's returning to the Queen." His pale hand idly drifted down to reach into his pocket, and he withdrew his silver pocketwatch. Flicking it open, he stared blankly at the slowly moving hands.
"I hate being powerless," the tall man said. Snapping the watch closed, he stuffed it back in his white pocket. "The Queen has her, Hatter."
Sinking to sit down beside Alita and the others, Rabbit drooped, his shoulders slouched.
"How could this happen already?" he stuttered. "Th-this is my fault! I let Alita in, when I should have just made her go home." His fluffy white hair fell about his face as he shook his head, and Rabbit closed his eyes sadly. "I did it again. I let another human into Wonderland, and now because of it, people will die."
Looking up at Hat-T with a look of pure sorrow, the slender Wonderlander grit his teeth.
"Because of me, she will die."

[I won't be on much for the holidays so this might be my only post for this for a while :sweat: Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Everybody :D I left room for Alita and Yin and Yang to have been awake/woken up so they could come along. If they are all knocked out, they can stay at the mansion and just arrive at the castle later on :) Also, I don't remember if I ever said the color of Hat-T's eyes in my previous posts.]
The dark green haired woman opened her mouth to try to say something but closed it without a word. She didn't know what to do or say to comfort him and moved her gaze to their other friends. Hat-T was shocked at the news that Heartless was working for the Queen. She hadn't known him for long but he seemed like an okay, albeit creepy, guy. Worse still, C.C. was in danger. The Queen was known for her hatred of any who helped Alice, having heard directly from C.C. what happened to her father, the previous Cheshire. She shuddered at the thought of her friend losing her life, putting her hand to her throat. She swallowed hard and looked back down at the destitute man. His doleful expression made her want to cry. Her clothes changed to a dim shade of colors, the patterns all but faded.
"There is a way to save the Cheshire Cat."
She spun around to the source of the sudden voice. There in the middle of the library doorway stood the Doormouse. The brown haired young man stared at the group with pitch black eyes and an expressionless face.
"Through the looking glass."
The few words he spoke were all he said before he slumped down to the floor with as much warning as he had appeared. He had returned to slumber land. For a moment, Hat-T stood there, trying her best to register her house mate's cryptic words. Then it hit her. She quickly pulled him out of the doorway and further into the library. After propping the Doormouse against a nearby shelf, she made her way to the door and reached around it. With a sharp tug, she pulled out the key from the library doorknob.
"Follow me." she said, and made her way towards a space between two bookshelves that housed the small spiral staircase to the second floor. The hatter walked down the second level to the old wooden door at the right hand corner. She unlocked it with the key and slowly opened the portal, it's weight made her struggle. Inside was a circular room. Not just any room, it was a room full of mirrors. The walls rose up quite a distance. One could barely make out the glass domed ceiling that let in a glimmer of sunlight. Now that she was in the mirror room, however, the woman was unsure of what to do next. She had seen the previous Mad Hatter use the mirrors but they all led to different places. She stood in the middle of the tower and looked around, her pink eyes shifting from mirror to mirror as she tried to remember which one led where. She knew they were in a hurry but she didn't want to rush anything. After a few minutes of searching, she finally recognized it. It was a simple oval mirror halfway up the room. "Get ready, this will only be a one way trip." she warned. She bent down in the middle of the room and stuck the key into a small hole in the floor. Soon the white marble beneath them began to shift and a huge spiral staircase rose up to the level of the mirror. A narrow walkway slowly extended to the oval looking glass. Climbing the staircase was a breeze for Hat-T but crossing the guard-less, flat walkway was not. She didn't like heights and without any rails to keep her from falling off the sides, the hatter could only slowly inch towards the mirror. She held her breath and gripped her friend's arm tightly as she crossed, not daring to look down. She was grateful when they found themselves in one of the ground level mirrored hallways of the Queen's palace after having jumped through the cold looking glass.

Alright, as of yet, Heartless is working for the false Queen of Hearts to capture Alita. From their place in the forest, Slita, Walrus, and one of the twins was teleported to Hat-T's house. :P The Cheshire Cat has been captured by Heartless.
Rabbit and Hat-T are going to try and save C.C. - and supposedly, all of the other characters (Yin, Yang, Alita, and Walrus) are unconscious . . . we didn't know what to do with them. So yes, they're asleep in the middle of the floor in Hat-T's house. :D
Details are all written out, and I don't blame you for not wanting to read the entire thread. Blegh, no fun at all when you don't want to read it.))
