Cheshire and Bryan walk in from their talk and the others are standing near the door, facing their direction as they join the group again. 

"Good, you guys are back. What were you both even talking about?" Cook wonders.

"I was just reminding him of the plan so he doesn't end up forgetting, cause we all know what hell could break loose if this goes wrong," Cheshire replies.

"Hm...ok," Helpy says with skepticism. Bryan gives her a confused look but then shrugs it off as Cheshire speaks to the group again.

"But, enough of the questions. We have to go back to the palace and get that control freak to listen to us," Cheshire states.

"Yeah, you're right. Let's go, everyone," The Queen tells the others. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

They all walk out the door, following behind the queen as she guides them towards the palace.

"So, how come we have to walk there? Can't you teleport places, Cheshire?" Bryan wonders.

"Even though that sounds simple and convenient, I have my limitations. I, unfortunately, am not strong enough to teleport all of you, so I'm sticking to 1 passenger," Cheshire explains. "Why do you think I only got you away from Hatter at the palace and not anyone else in the room?" 

"Oh...I guess that makes sense," Bryan replies.

As the two are speaking to one another, The Queen holds out her arm in front of the group, halting them.

"What's wrong, your highness?" Cook asks.

"Something isn't right..." The Queen replies. There's a minute of silence as everybody looks around cautiously.

"I feel some kind of...dark presence..." The Queen states.

"Dark presence?" Bryan wonders.

"The queen has always had the ability to detect evil souls nearby. This is why nobody has been successful in assassinating her," Helpy whispers. 

"You should follow a different path..." 

Bryan turns around swiftly after hearing the strange voice, though he doesn't see anybody behind him. Bryan remembers what the voice told him and recommends it to the group.

"Um...what if we follow a different path; one more out of the public eye, maybe?" Bryan suggests.

"Hmm...yeah, I guess we could. I know a different way to the palace right over here," The queen says, directing everyone to an alternate pathway. 

The Queen remains in front, walking cautiously in case something would attack her or the group.

"Do you still feel odd, my queen?" Cook asks.

"Sort of...I think it's fading though," The Queen replies. 

Bryan suddenly stops walking. His vision starts to cloud with glitches, making it harder and harder for him to look around him. He tries to cry out to the others, but the glitches blinding him prevent him from speaking.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bryan slowly opens his eyes and takes his hands away from his face. He then looks around in a panic once he realizes he's in a different part of the forest without his friends in sight.

"Guys?! No, this can't be happening. Where did they go?" Bryan asks himself with anxiety.

"Aw...are you afraid?"
