One is mad, the other not

The heart stealer

Alice's P.O.V

Walking beside the queen as we journeyed forward towards her private tea room I couldnt help but worry for Chris' safety afterall the one thing that the queen seems to hate is small things. Turning round the corner I saw where we were going and my it was beautiful. It was a small inside garden in a green house.

It was filled with various red shades of roses as well as the odd golden and pink rose. There were other types of flowers but all of the flowers were either red, pink or gold. Then there was a gazibo painted a deep red with pink and good accents draped in red, pink and gold roses.

Once we were inside I aw that th chairs and table were made with gold with red roses engraved with red gold and ruby centres. Sitting down I looked at the array of food before me to see a large tray of freshly baked strawberry tarts topped with red pastry hearts. Looked at the teapot I saw it was once again the avourite blood red shade and even the steam coming form the spout was of a pale red shade.

Once we were seated and comfortable a young butler dressed in red butler outfit came and poured us each a cup of tea and too my suprise the tea was a golden shade despite the steam being pink and the smel being rapsberry. This world was truly magnificant in many wonderful ways.

"It may look like golden tea my dear Lucy but if you add sugar it turns a rosy pink shade and then a deep red shade when you add milk"

Adding my milk and sugar I was mystified when it did indeed change colour.

"I should have expected something this wonderful considering your wonderous taste my queen"

Seeing that she was thoroughy pleased with my compliment I saw a smile spread across her face and decided to try this wonderous tea. With the first sip I moaned in delight for it did indeed taste of raspberries with hint of another flavour I had never tried before. Smiling with satisfactiont he queen proceeded to drink from her own teacup.

Before log we had both finished our first cup and so had been poured another when the queen offered me one of her tarts. After making sure she as okay with me eating one of her beloved tarts she replied witha smile saying she was thankful I had stopped her from becoming any less beautifully big and so this was her repayment to me. Taking the smallest one just incase I tasted it slightly.

Onc again this was one of the most delicous tarts I had ever tasted. To my suprise it was no just a strawberry tart but also had a hint of raspberry as well. Before long we had both finished the tray of tarts as well as a bowl of strawerries dipped in chocolate.

When we were leaving I saw it was now a different boy who was clearing way the dishs what was strange though was how he was trying to hide his face from view but I caughta glimspe of his eyes and they seemed to be e filled with mischief. When our eyes met though they change to fearful. To show I wouldt do aything to hurt him I smiled softly causing him to visibly relax.

As we left the tea room as the queen called she declared that she would give me a personal tour of her castle. Making sure to show my gratitude at her supposedly selfless actions which included giving up her oh so precious time.

Speaking of time I wadered what the time was so i asked the queen. She replied by pointing at a nearbye clock hangig upon a nearbye wall. It said 1:35pm. Wow when I left and went down the rabbit hole it was 11 am so much has happened in such a short space of time. As we continued to have our tour round the catsle I sw many marvelous rooms including a beautiful with large array of many different insturments.

After a short while our tour ended but our excitement did not. Just as we rounded the corner to go to the tea room for aother cup of tea we were ambushed. Soon we were surrounded by men clothed in white outfits with the sybols of clubs and spades on their waists. Before I knew what was happening they pulled a white bag over my head blinding me temporarily and tied my hands behind my back. Then declared

"We have taken your closest heart in you castles company and will keep her in our custody until you bide by our terms if not then she will pay for your mistakes with her life"

With that everything seemed to go black as I seemed to have been teleported to another rooom. Unfortunately I was not quite used to the different unusualitites in this world and I unfortuantely blacked out only to see a familiar face pull the bag off of my head.
