Me and Jax stood down in the tunnels. It felt like hours passed, eventually the crashing stopped and the front door slammed shut. A few seconds later Hatter came and got us. We went into the living room and I looked around. Everything was thrown on the floor.
I asked, "What did they do?"
Hatter said, "They threw everything around looking for you guys. All the other rooms looks like this to."
Jax said, "I assume that they'll be back soon."
"Yeah, they aren't going to stop coming here until they find you two," Astra replied.
Jax said, "Then the solution is simple."
Faye asked, "What would that be?"
"We have to leave for a few days," Jax responded.
Hatter asked, "Ok, when do we leave?"
Jax said, "No me and Sapphire have to leave for a few days. You guys will stay here. The people looking for us should see us leave or figure out that we left and they should follow us."
Astra asked, "And what will you guys do if your caught?"
I said, "Simple, we won't get caught."
Faye asked, "But if you are, what will you do?"
Jax said, "Find a way out."
"Look, Jax's has a point. While we were gone we can work on a plan or try and find were for sure the Red Queen is," I replied.
Hatter asked, "But where will you stay?"
Jax said, "We'll camp. Now we should go grab some things that we might need while we're gone Sapphire."
I said, "Ok." He left the room and headed upstairs. I followed behind him and went into my room. There were clothes everywhere and the bed was flipped. I managed to find a bag to put a couple things in.
I looked around the room and moved things around to try and find things. I found a flashlight and some batteries. Then I went and through some clothes in the bag. I couldn't figure out what else we might need so I went into Jax's room.
He noticed me and asked, "Is your room this destroyed to?"
I said, "Yeah, it is. I couldn't figure out what to pack so I just did some batteries with a flashlight and some clothes."
Jax said, "I ended up finding some knifes so I wrapped those in some clothes and put them in a bag I found."
"Yeah, I couldn't find much in my room because of the mess either and we don't exactly have time to look for things very good," I replied.
He said, "Yeah, we need to leave as soon as possible." He turned and walked out of his room. I followed him downstairs where everyone was waiting for us.
Hatter handed us a small bag and said, "This has some food in it." I took the bag from him and put it in my bag.
Faye said, "This has water and some first aid things that you might need." Jax took it and put it on his bag.
Astra said, "Your bags don't look like they have a lot of things in them."
Jax said, "We just grabbed some things and threw them into the bags. So no there not."
I said, "We should get going before they come back " We said bye to everyone who was in the room then me and Jax left.
We walked a little bit into the woods and I asked, "What direction sgosho we go in?"
Jax said, "I don't know. Knowing how Faye is and how everyone else is they probably put a map on onone of the bags." Jax put his bag on the ground and took out the one that was supposed to have water in it and first aid stuff. A few seconds later he pulled out a map.
I said, "Leave it to them to put something that we forget into one of the bags and not tell us."
Jax said, "Yeah, that seems like them. This also seems like them." Jax pointed to a couple spots circled on the map.
I said, "It looks like they circled Hatter's house, the castle, Diamonds house, and another one that looks pretty for away."
Jax asked, "I don't know what the other place they circled is. Do you think thafs where they think the Red Queen is."
I said, "I don't know but we could go there and find out."
Jax daid, "Ok, then it looks like we're heading east." He put the things back into his bag. He then picked it up and started to walk east. I stood there for a few seconds then started to follow him.
We walked for awhile in silence. I eventually asked, "How long do you think it'll take us to get there!"
"I don't know, at least a couple days," Jax replied. We went back to being silent and I started to look around at the things that were around us. There wasn't much to see since we were in the forest. There was basically only trees and a few bushes. Every now and then we passed some type of animal or something. They never hurt us tho they would just look at us and then keep walking.
The silence lasted for what seemed to be a couple hours. Jax finally broke it and asked, "Do you think that the people looking for us have figured out that we aren't around there anymore?"
I said, "I don't know. If they haven't then they'll probably realize it soon."
Jax said, "Yeah there bound to realize it at some point."
I asked, "Do you think it's the safest thing for us to sleep out on the open?"
"We'll be fine. Besides we won't be completely out on the open if we find a cave or make something that blends in, or something like that," Jax replied.
I said, "Yeah. Besides we both have basic survival skills."
Jax said, "Yeah. We've been walking for awhile and it seems like the sun is setting so we should find a place to spend the night." I didn't respond and we both kept walking. A few minutes later we came to a small clearing in the woods with tall trees leaning towards each other so that they covered the sun and you couldn't see anything above them.
I said, "Let's just stay here." Jax nodded his head and he put his bag down on the ground. I did the same thing. I took the bag that Hatter gave to me and gave it to Jack. I then stood up and walked around the clearing to see if I could find anything.
A few minutes passed and Jax said, "Come on, we should eat something." I walked over to where he was and sat down.
He handed me some food and asked, "Did you find anything?"
I said, "No, nothing that would cause us problems or give us away."
We finished eating in silence and then Jax said, "I'm going to try and sleep."
I said, "Ok, I'm going to stay up a little longer."
He said, "Ok, but you need to sleep at some point tonight."
I said, "I know. I will, just not now." A few minutes later he fell asleep and I decided to climb one of the trees out of boredom.
