Simply Madness [Discontinued]

Chapter Seven

~•Maddie•~

I wasn't to sure where exactly Zalgo's castle was since I was in such a rush, so now I'm just wandering around. Hopefully I'll accidentally run into it, I never was good with directions.

~•Masky•~
~•Before Maddie left•~

I stared at the people who Maddie seemed to know. I mean she was slightly shaking, so I wasn't sure if she was scared or angry, or sad. I heard her mumble something that I couldn't quite make out before she spoke up.

"What do you want?" She said with a seemingly calm composure, but I could see she was still shaking. She had anger in her voice that I'm pretty sure everyone in the room could sense.

"Well, first off that is no way to address your Que-" The pure white girl wearing the victorian style dress, started, but was cut off when Maddie interrupted her.

"You? My Queen?" She laughed as if it was a joke to her, "You lost the right to call yourself my 'Queen'," she began emphasizing 'Queen', with disrespect and sarcasm laced in her voice. "When you banished me 4 months ago." Wait, Maddie was banished?

"You know what you did" This 'Queen' person said putting authority (A/N: "Respect my athroritah" Sorry, it was the perfect moment.) in her voice.

"You think I could help it? You think I want this?" She said with a hint of confusion to emphasize her point, "You think I wanted to do that?!? Well guess what, I never asked for that to happen. Heck, I barely remember what did happen!" She was shaking and panting. You could practically feel the anger radiating off of her.

"Why don't you calm down and we can continue this then?" I said trying to calm her down a little, and gently setting my hand on her shoulder.

"No, I will not calm down." She said shaking my hand off her shoulder. "I was thrown from my home and ridiculed by the people I once called my family over some event that I can't even remember." She said with hurt and betrayal in her voice. She gave a small laugh before she said, "And better yet I can't even control it, heck, I don't even know if it can be controlled." She said practically yelling, shaking with anger, and rage. She seemed to pause for a split second before running out. Everyone was shocked and a few of the other pastas shot glares towards this 'Queen' character. Especially Jeff, I knew that when it came to family, Jeff took it pretty personally. I was about to go and check up on her when a guy in a top hat with orange-ish hair spoke up.

"Don't, she needs time to herself. And even if you did go, she would probably already be gone. Even for her she can travel pretty fast without knowing it." I was skeptical on whether I should believe him or not. I've never seen him before, so I assumed her arrived with the girl who upset Maddie.

I stared at him for a few more seconds before sighing and giving in. And thats when the awkwardness settled in. That was until Zalgo spoke up.

"If you banished her, then why do you need her now?" He said with confusion in his voice.

"She holds a possible key to help the kingdom." Anyone could tell that there was more to this story.

"That doesn't answer my question." Oh no, Zalgo was getting irritated.

"It is none of your concern."

"It is my concern since when she was banished from your kingdom, and that means the second she entered mine, she became apart of it!" Zalgo was obviously past this whole 'work around the point'. He never was too patient.

"Fine, I'll tell you, but not here. This is to be confidential, just you and me," she said as she began to stand up. Before she looked back and said, "and don't try anything." With that she walked out probably heading to his office.

~•The White Queen•~

I head out the door, using the madness to make it lead right into Lord Zalgo's office since I knew it had a magical barrier that made it so no one could spy in.

Pretty soon Zalgo arrived using his signature dark cloud.

"Now, what is the real reason you need this girl." I responded quickly knowing he wasn't to patient, and I didn't feel like pushing my luck any further.

"Wonderland's core is braking and she might be able to stop it."

"Then why did you banish her if she could have saved it?" He said as confused.

"Well, the core started to brake after we banished her, and she was accused of the mass murder of over two hundred wonderlanders over three weeks." I could see the amusement in his eyes. It's not really like he could help it, he was the ruler of the underworld and all demons, monsters, and beasts you could think of.

"Well, I see why you would do that, but she did mention that she couldn't control it. Wouldn't you consider that she would be telling the truth?" Here, talking to him now, I'm really starting to see the holes in my judgment.

"No, not then at least, but now I see how wrong I was. I and I do regret it." I said sincerely.

"Well, why don't I send out some of the pastas to find her? I do owe you one after all." He said with a smirk. Yeah me and him were good friends, are good friends.

"It won't be that easy. Your realm's madness is different from mine. We have no idea what it could do since her natural instinct as a Cheshire and a wonderlander is to absorb the madness. That's why I never brought her here, I did once before. She was young, and knew how to control it. It was like she was too weak, like no matter what happened she just kept absorbing it. She eventually passed out and forgot the whole experience. I never took her back or told her." I was still worried even after I banished her. And I kinda hoped that she wouldn't end up here.

~•Maddie•~

I've been walking in circles for a whole twenty minutes. I didn't even know why. Wait, now I remember, I was supposed to get back to that horn-mouth guy, or something like that. Well, back to looking.

Plus I feel so hyped, like I could float for days. I don't even know where this new found energy was coming from, but I like it.

~•~
