The Red Queen (Hearts Are Red Like Roses III)

♥︎ Amelia's POV ♥︎

"He's wise. He's Absolute" the rabbit informed me and the twins nodded their heads 

"He's Absolem" they synchronised together. As we were walking, with the mouse leading first, some sort of thick smoke seem to cover most of my vision, you can hardly see anything through it nor breath through it

"Who are you?" at first, I had imagined a middle aged man talking and speaking to me, but I had come to the conclusion that nothing is normal in this world, there was no way that one who spoke to me was just a normal man and I was right, it was a caterpillar smoking a hookah, with a monocle on one of it's eyes

"I'm...*couch* Amelia" I coughed in between my sentence because the heavy smoke was getting into my lungs 

"Hm, indeed, you ought to be Amelia and not Alice"

"Can I ask something?" 

"You just did, stupid girl" my nose scrunched at his insult 

"How do you know Alice, if we are talking about the same Alice"

"They are many Alices in your world, stupid girl" he stated, along with his unnecessary negative calling of me "Unroll the Oraculum" he pointed at the scroll and we unraveled it, as I moved even closer I noticed the imagines were moving and the writing were appear before my eyes 

"Fascinating. It's a calendar" 

"Correct. The Oraculum, being a calendrical compendium of Underland" the rabbit explained 

"Is Underland...this?" I gestured the place with my hands and the rabbit nodded

"It tells us our each and everyday since the Beginning" said Absolem 

"Today is Griblig Day is the time of the Red Queen" the rabbit pointed at the moving drawing and it looked almost like now, but there was one thing, the girl who was standing in between the white rabbit and the bird is not me, the drawing of the girl as familiar to me though, it resembled a lot like...the Alice I know

Could it be the Alice I know?

"Show her the Frabjous Day" Absolem ordered 

"Mmm, yeah, Frabjous being the day Alice slay the Jabberwocky" said either Tweedledee or Tweedledum 

"The Jabber-what?"

"The Jabberwocky. That being Alice, there, with the Vorpal sword" the other twin added and points at the next drawing, a girl yielding a sword towards what seems to be a dragon or maybe it is a dragon 

"No other sword can kill the Jabberwocky, nohow"

"If it ain't Vorpal, it ain't dead"

"Now wait just a second, if I'm not Alice, then why are you telling me all of this?" they all stood quiet when I asked the question 

"Well, I don't know...Absolem?" the white rabbit appeared to not know the answer to my question and turned to Absolem for help, but when we all lifted our heads up to him, he had already disappeared

Not even the Absolem who is Absolute knows the answer

While they were all too busy fussing about Absolem's disappearance, I began hearing something, whispering was the right term 

"Amelia"

My head shifted to the side and towards to the whispering 

"Amelia Westheart"

The urge of following the whispering had become very irresistible that my feet began moving on its own and no one had even realised the absents of my presents
