" what do you mean it's not safe?" She touched her head, she knew she was loosing blood but there wasn't a hospital or anything here and what's the rush? She thought. She slowly got to her feet " what's the rush?"

"My door shift ends at dawn and the sun is rising. The next guard will be here very soon and unlike me he will kill you." He looped his arm around her and began to walk closing the door behind them.
" wha-what do you mean?!" She said still following him with there arms linked " you were meant to kill me?!" Emphasising on the word kill. Her arm was in an awkward position Alfie was much taller than herself so her arm was being he up high but she thought it was comfortable for him since his arm was at a normal height so she didn't complain
"Why do you think I came at you with a sword?" He replied. The main paths were too dangerous it would be too easy for someone to find them, so Alfie parted through the flowers. Or what was left of them. "Do you remember the dancing flowers from the story?" He asked Lacy.
" yeah I do" lacy said looking around if what use to be the beautiful flower garden , but was now only a few flowers most of them were dead " this was my favourite part..." Lacy said, she tried to keep up with Alfie but he was much taler than she was and she had to take bigger steps than she usually would just to keep up " are we small? Or are the flowers just very tall?" She asked with curiosity, she knew it wasn't the right time but she was just very curious
"We are a normal size. This used to be a forest of flowers, but they can no longer dance". He replied pushing dead petals and leaves out of the way.
" why?" Lacy said doing the same she pushed petals out of her face and crunched the ones at her feet " why isn't this place like it use to be? Like In the book" lacy said she didn't realize but she tripped over a petal but managed to steady herself back up again
And continue running with Alfie in front of her there arms still linked
"Now's not the time to explain that, just keep moving." The foliage began to clear and a series of very large trees came into sight. They stopped, Alfie turned to Lacy and pointed towards the biggest tree, "that's where we're going."
" into a tree?!" She thought Alfie was crazy but she didn't disagree, she followed him as they ran towards the largest tree out of the rest, he did know this place better than she ever did anyway. " why is he saving me? Why didn't he just kill me like he was meant to?"lacy thought to herself but she decided to keep those question to herself and ask the later at a more appropriate time
"I know you're in a lot of pain but you're going to have to run to the tree. We can't afford to be exposed for to long." And with that they were running.
" I'm so tired though" lacy said she kept her pace up though knowing theta her life was in stake. Her head thrones and she could feel the blood drizzling down her head and next to her eye, wiping the blood away was the least if her problems. Right now she needed to run , what she was running from, she had no idea but what she was running for, her life.
Still running he turned to her and said, "you ready." She panicked and shook her head. When the reached the tree trunk they just kept running, straight through, into the tree's centre.
" ahh!" Lacy yelled as she put her hands I front of her, but for some reason her legs just kept running. When she reached the tree she couldn't believe that she could just go straight through it, she thought she was just going to get hit in the face by the trunk if it and look stupid. When she entered she stopes running. She went to Alfie's side " where am I?" She said quietly like a mouse
"Your in The Hope. It's not the best name but it's clear. The people who love here have escaped the queen or where lucky enough to have been captured. The rest of wonderland's citizens live within the evil castles walls."
" so... I'm safe here?" Lacy asked looking up at Alfie, he was much taller than her she realized. Lacy looked around, it was fairly big space " why did you save me?" She asked so quietly if was nearly a whisper
"Your safe for now, but you need to go to the healer." He took her hand once more and guided her threw the passage ways of the tree.
She thought about the last question she asked maybe when didn't hear her or maybe he just didn't want to answer it. He followed Alfie through the passage ways to meet this healer " who's, the healer?" Lacy ask
"He's a little eccentric , but he's the best at what he does. Some call him mad, the mad hatter."
" the mad... Hatter?" Lacy thought about it for a while, where had she heard that name before." He's form the story, isn't he" she said looking forward wondering were this passage will look like once hthe get to him, is he like he use to be or has he changed. She was some what exited but nervous to see this mad hatter she had read about
"Yep and your about to meet him." Just as Alfie said that the walls that were surrounding them began to transfer into a deep purple colour. They then came to patched door that was just smaller than Alfie. He was just about to knock when the door flew open.
Lacy was about the size of the door. When the door flung open and lacy got the biggest startle " ah!" She yelled as she closed her eyes and hid slightly behind Alfie, she gripped on lightly to the hem in his shirt. Lacy peeped behind his upper arm to see what was behind the doors
"Alphie? I haven't, we haven't... You haven't been here in years!" Said a strange voice. As he came into the light Lacy jumped. "Ooo and you have a friend, a lady friend at that." He raised an eyebrow. "Where are my manners come in!"
Lacy looked at the mad hatter then at Alfie. They both walked in through the doors into another room. It wasn't what she expected. She nearly forgot about her wound on her head when it start to hush out blood again and she wiped it away with one stroke of her hand smothering it over her forehead. " my head hurts Alfie" she said quietly just quietly enough for just him to here her, no one else.
"don't worry you'll be fine soon," he whispered back. The hatter began to speak again, "so what's the matter deary?"
Lacy steeped away from Alfie's side " my um er head hurts" she said, she pt the hem of her shirt in her hands and fiddled with it. She did this when ever she was nervous or scared, it was an old habit of hers. Lacy looked at the hatter, he looked older more tired out.
"I think you've done a little more than hurt it sweetie. Come here, lie down and I will a sticky beak." Said the mad man as he gestured towards a bench with a cushion on it.
Lacy walked over to the bench, she laid down and put her hands together over her stomach " what are you going to do?" She asked. She didn't like people touching her she didn't know.
A wicked smile spread across theHatter's face, "I will probably have to amputate your head..."
"What?! No!!!!" Lacy screamed " you can't do that!!!!" She sat up and put her hands infrint of herself "noooo! No! You can't do that!" She scrunched up her face "Alfie!!" She yelled for help
The mad hatter chuckled to himself, "that doesn't take your fancy?" Alfie stared daggers at the hatter the look on his face was very harsh.
Lacy shook her head " no" she sad with a sniffle. She started to settle down again " my head hurts and I don't want it cut off, there would be no point in that" lacy said mater of factually. This mad hatter was crazy more crazy than she had expect it read in the book. Her head still throbbed
Alfie unfolded his arms, "can you just go and get her some honey supple already?" With that the hatter turned and went to a cupboard and mumbled to himself.
Lacy looked at Alfie with sweet innocent eyes "why did you save me?" She said nearly a whisper so the hatter wouldn't hear.
"That doesn't matter, the point is that you are going to live so i'de just be happy with that if i was you." His voice was rough unlike before and Lacy looked shocked at his response.
Lacy was shocked but Alfie's response, why was he so harsh? It was just a question, she thought. She turned away from Alfie and waited for the mad hatter to return. Without looking at him lacy asked Alfie a question " what's the honey for?..."
"Honey Supple... It's like a..." Alphie was interrupted by the hatter, "it's magic."
Lacy looked up at the hatter " it's... Magic?" She asked out of curiosity. She had heard of magic honey supple. " will it take away the pain quickly?" Lacy asked in hope, her head throbbed a lot " and stop the bleeding?" She added
"It will cure anything." Replied the mad hatter. "I fixed this ones broken leg with it." He gestured towards Alfie.
Lacy looked over to Alfie " you broke your leg?... How?" She asked curiously. But the thought that was on the top of her mind was ' how does honey cure everything, that's impossible' she thought, but just went with it
"i was just a kid, a fell out of this tree." he never looked lacy in the eye. "its going to sting a little," the mad hatter took it as his cue to put the honey supple on Lacy.
The honey stung like hell. Lacy bite her lip she help onto the seats cushion and closed her eyes tight . She thought this would make the noise she was about to let out less noticeable but it didn't " ahh!" She yelled out painfully and them let out a small whimper. She didn't think that it would hurt that much.
Alphie winced at her pain but he could see the wound on her head becoming smaller. The hatter stepped away and Lacy just laid there obviously in shock, the hatter came back with a pitcher and towel and handed them to Alfie. "Wipe the blood away, I will go and talk to mouse." He said walking away, leaving Lacy and Alfie on their own.
Lacy relaxed she became more aware of her surroundings and relized she was a like. With Alfie, she sat up and took a deep breath. "...thank you..." She said quietly
Alfie dunked the towel in the water again, "your welcome," he wiped Lacy's face removing the last of the dried blood. "you'll need to rest up if you want to get home soon."
Lacy looked up at Alfie " how am I going to get home?" She said doubtfully that she ever will get home. Lacy could feel the blood beginning to go away and her forehead was glossy and wet from the water; it felt cold
"Well that depends on you." A voice came from behind Alfie and they both turned. It was a mouse about the size of a small child, she was wearing a floor length dress with an apron.
Lacy couldn't believe her eyes! There was a giant mouse in the room! She just hoped it was her imagination. " ...Alfie... You see that to right?..." She said ' it's even wearing clothes!' She thought
"Yes of course I do. Lacy this is the door mouse, If there's a way for you to get home she'll know about it." The mouse curtsied and walked closer to Lacy.
" h-h-hi" lacy said with a bit of a quake in her voice. She soon fixed that up " nice to meet you... Door mouse" lacy sat up and put her feet on the ground still sitting up on the bed
