Chapter 11
Slowly, I could feel the stranger trace the outline of the tile with his finger. My breathing heavied. He wanted me. After a minute or two of complete silence, I could hear footsteps walking away from me. Cook muttered a few words and the sound of horse hooves became distant.
Soon enough, cook pried open the tile and pulled me out. The frantic look on her face shocked me. Usually Cook was calm yet fierce. Seeing her in an anxious and vulnerable state was really quite a shocker.
"Alice, you have to leave now. Forget your sister. I want you to go to The Kingdom of Hearts. Do not trust anyone other than The White Rabbit or the Cheshire Cat. Do you hear me?!" Cook demanded.
I quickly nodded my head. I wanted to question Cook about the earlier incident, but that was not very important now. Seeing cook frantic is much more important. That meant serious business . Cook then proceeded to ransack a nearby drawer, pulling out a long blood stained blade.
"Use this to defend yourself. It's made out of dragon bones. Now go Alice!" Cook shouted as she pushed me out of the small kitchen. She kissed me on the forehead and went back in as I tore through the forest. Somehow I could not help but wonder if this was the last time I would ever see that friendly lady.
After running for ages, I saw a gust of smoke rise from the bushes. Someone was here. In a quick pace ,I gently pushed aside the leaves, revealing a brightly coloured mushroom. Or Toadstool. On it sat him. That disgusting Freak of nature.
" Caterpillar." I greeted in a mocking tone.
The Caterpillar looked at me with his bloodshot eyes. A curved smile graced his green face.
"Alice. What brings you here?" He laughed heartily. He threw down his pipe, and crawled towards me on his many little legs.
" Where is The Kingdom of Hearts?"
"Eager to see the Queen? Now dear, have a puff!" The Caterpillar shouted as he stuffed his pipe into my mouth. The disgusting taste of ash filled my mouth as a hacked and coughed.
"IDIOT! How do I get out of this Forest!" I shouted viciously at him.
He cocked his pea green head at me, amused by my temper.
"If you want to go out, you have to meet the Hatter. Now you wouldn't want that, would you Alice?" The Caterpillar mocked.
He's right. Even though the Hatter has Constance, he wouldn't hurt her. He wants me. Throughout the years, Ann has always warned me never to reveal anything to the mad man. She always says he's out to kill me once he's gotten what he wants. Ann. Oh! I have forgotten about her! She must be worried sick!
"Oh dear me. Caterpillar, tell me where is the way to The Kingdom of Hearts?" I begged. I needed to get home. With Ann's help, I'm sure I'm able to get out of the mess I've made.
"No." He said, blowing a smoke ring at my face.
Taken aback by his abrupt answer, I glared at him. He responded to my glare by blowing yet another smoke ring at me! The putrified odor of smoke filled my nostrils. I raised my hand and smacked that no good Freak right across his left cheek.
"YOU FUCKING NO GOOD IDIOT! TELL ME THE WAY TO THE KINGDOM NOW!" I shouted at the top of my lungs.
Obviously, the Caterpillar was not amused by my sudden outburst. He brought his face a few inches from my and bared his sharp, blood stained teeth.
"Learn respect Alice. I could easily kill you." He snarled menacingly.
Before I knew it, a paroxysm of anger rushed through me and my blade found its way into his neck.
