Take it all in....

Just breathe....

And clear your mind...

     She kept saying those words over and over again as she walked down by the carpet, their gazes, their whispers and expectations is too much for her to handle

It made her think about how her own mother would look at her

With those nervous looking eyes

"Coraline, will be my wife?"

She bit her lip and focused on trying not to trip herself from humiliation when suddenly out of nowhere, a small pitch voice rang through her ears

"Hey Alice...I could feel your body trembling.." the creature whispered, making the woman flinched in surprise

"Misty?! What are you doing here? I thought you were with Hatter up there?" Coraline whispered no longer bothered at her thought but filled with questions by the prescene of the young mouse"I almost thought to myselt that I'm loosing my mind.."

Misty snickered and fixed her green puffy dress "Well, funny thing is, Hatter insisted me to accompany you, he knows how pressured you are tonight and that young lad thought that it would be nice to have someone to keep you away from those eyes, so I volunteered myself..." she replied with a grin

Coraline couldn't help but to smile back at the creature and nodded her head

"Thank you Misty, for both of you...after this ceremony I'll be thanking your friend as well..."

Misty smiled and nodded, now that the woman was no longer afraid anymore, Alice watched the forefather of History standing at the edge of the altar, waiting for her arrival

The two shared smiles and took Absolem's hand, slowly guiding her towards the Scabbard, the very same Scabbard that the previous White Knight had used on the battle

The very same Scabbard that Hatter had protected for so many years, for the next owner's arrival

Now that it was no longer barricade with magic, she turned her head back towards the Queen

"You can do it, Alice..." she whispered for encouragement just as Eggs nodded from behind in approval

If they believed that she can...

Then she might as well

Staring down the weapon standing securely around by the rock, Coraline closed her eyes and breathe, reaching both of her shaky hands for the handle

Hatter noticed her hands trembled as she clutched the weapon, closing his eyes as he dearly hope that nothing goes wrong

Misty crossed her fingers as she bit her lip, waiting for the anticipation as well as chesire, closing his eyes in hope

You can do it Coraline, she told to herself many times again

And with that final straw, her hands gripped on the weapon and something clicked on her senses

A bright forcefull wind passed through the palace, causing the other guests to stand on ground until the wind had stopped

It must have been coming from the White Knight's prophecy

She could hear the metal sheath against the rock

Her eyes widen in surprise for she had not realized

She was pulling it out

All people gasped as they witness the woman had finally removed the Legendary Scabbard from the rock and a flash of light appeared on its surface, they all closed their eyes and waited until the light stopped glowing
