(Reader) and Flower headed back to where Fukase, Len, and Yuki were at. To their suprise, they were all behaving in a calm and civil manner. Yuki had fallen back asleep, Len was sipping tea, and Fukase was resting his cheek in his hand. Fukase had a rather bored expression on his face, and was using his free hand to poke at a slice of orange with his knife.

(Reader) and Flower walked up to the head of the very long table, where Fukase was sitting. He didn't seem to notice their precence until (Reader) tapped his shoulder and Flower cleared her throat.

Fukase quickly turned around to see who was standing behind him, letting out a sigh of relief once he saw the two girls. "Fukase." Flower's voice came out flat. "Yes? What can I, the Hatter, do for you?" Fukase asked, obvious pride in his voice. Fukase truly did love his title as 'The Mad Hatter of Wonderland'.

Flower quickly glanced at (Reader). (Reader) returned the glance, nodding once. "(Reader) would like to find the Cheshire cat."

"Why?"

"So I can return back to London. You see, I simply must get home!" (Reader) cried, chiming into the conversation. Fukase stood up and leaned on the back of his chair. "Wonderland is a rather dangerous place. Are you sure you want to come face to face with numerous...creatures?" Fukase asked, looking slightly worried.

(Reader) didn't say anything, she just simply nodded. 'Why else would I be asking, you bloody buffon!' (Reader) thought to herself. However, she dared not say it. She feared it would cause Fukase to get angry with her, and since (Reader) hadn't known Fukase for long, she really had no way of knowing how he would react. So she simply kept her comments to herself.

"Fine. But I'm coming with you." The red-head sternly stated. He picked up his cane, which was also leaning on his chair, and began leaing on his cane. "You don't have to do that, Fukase. I'm perfectly cappable of getting her there myself." Flower argued, her face and voice seeming emotionless. "I'm aware. But if they find out you snuck out again, which they most likely will, who knows what they'll do! Who's to say they won't do something that'll result in your death?"

Flower stared at the ground, "I know."

"Not to mention, she has a very bad temper. Worse than-"

"I know!" Flower raised her voice. "I'm very aware of what could happen. I don't need you, to tell me, the risk I pose to myself!" Flower cried. (Reader) stood and watched as the scene in front of her unfolded. She was curious to know who Flower and Fukase were talking about. "Fukase, I would be delighted to have you join us." (Reader) smiled. She folded her hands ever so elegently in front of her chest. 

Fukase smirked, having got his way, while Flower's eyes widened slightly. "Fine. You can come." Flower said through clentched teeth. She spun around and linked her arm with (Reader)'s. Flower, (Reader), and Fukase began their jurney to find the Cheshire Domain.
