Venus’ POV
It feels weird ambling alongside the White Queen. I’m fearful that she’ll go back to being a crazy cannibal again in a blink of an eye. But yet she remains unruffled and tranquil, her posture straight like her usual regal self. I just still have a bad vibe from this… I might just be paranoid you know. I did just nearly witness her slaughter Hatter. Then I would have had to have slain her… Well I kind of did with my powers.
‘’ Are we nearly there yet?’’ White queries behind me and Hatter. I tremor at her voice. It seems so put on… so irregular.
‘’ Nearly Your Majesty. I can see the head stones!’’ Hatter remarks jubilantly. Well he’s glad that she’s back to being sane. I’m just being paranoid.
‘’ Oh good! I’m getting tired: I usually ride on my horse you know. Or the Bandersnatch- wait where is the Bandersnatch?’’ The Queen is yet still inquisitive.
I gasp. ‘’ It’s joined your sister’s side again.’’
She sighs behind me. ‘’ Well we are going to have to get him back again aren’t we?’’
Hatter nods reluctantly. Chicken.
‘’ You scared, Hatter?’’ I prodded him with my elbow.
‘’ Me scared? Pffft!’’ He prodded me back. ‘’ The Hatter’s are never scared. Ever.’’ He blows a raspberry.
Rolling my eyes, I blow one back. White chuckles majestically. ‘’ Stop it!’’ We turn back and blow one at her. She doesn’t seem to mind. I insist I saw her eyes change colour for a second but she laughs again. ‘’ Misfits.’’
I carry on ambling. My heart is pumping faster now as we near the Queen’s dwelling again. Uuuuugh back again to the place.
‘’ We’re here!’’ Hatter announces.
The Queen sighs. ‘’ It looks deader than the last time I saw it.’’ She’s right. It’s not a vibrant and deadly red anymore… it’s more of a muddy brown with tinges of auburn in it.
‘’ She hasn’t looked after it, I suppose.’’ I see White pick up her dress skirts daintily and steps on one of the heads. We stare at her shocked that she’s doing this. I squeeze Hatter’s hand.
‘’ Well come on then cowards!’’ She hollers.
‘’ Hatter I have a bad feeling about this…’’ I raise my grey eyes at his.
He smiles forcefully. ‘’ It will be fine. We can’t run into any more bad things now, can we?’’
I nod even though I can’t do this.
‘’ Good luck.’’ I finally say as I hit a stepping stone. But before I get a reply, my vision fades and darkness surpasses me again…
‘’ VENUS!’’ Is the last thing I hear. 176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6ODA5VpMw
