The True Alice At Hand (Under Changes)

part 5: into the beyond

Oh my Jesus Christ it's been so long!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Harriet POV:

Well Harriet was searching Herupā kept watch, seeing if the stoker(s) would show them selves.

It didn't take long for Harriet to find what she was looking for.

$hello there, how are you?$

She apparently scared him quite a bit, because he started screaming.

$WHOA THERE!! CALM DOWN!! I JUST SAID HELLO!$

He stopped screaming, but obviously stayed vigilant.

#who are you? And how can you talk to me?#

The difference in their speech patterns didn't go unnoticed by a Harriet or Herupā.

$well my name is Harriet, and my companions name is Herupā. What's your name?$

The little snake seemed hesitant to answer, but did eventually.

#my current name would be Arisu, Hairy-et#

That was a confusing sentence.

$current name? That implies you had one before, and still plan to change it$

There was almost an immediate response after this.

#that would be because I do#

That was a weird answer. But that didn't matter right now, Herupā had tapped her arm, that ment it was time to go.

$thank you for your time Mr Snake, you were a great help$

The snake tilted its head and confusion did a weird little shrug and then slithered away.

Herupā's POV:
(This was wile Harriet was searching and talking to the snake)

Harriet had set me down on the bench, to be a the lookout.

The conversation between Harriet and the snake was interesting to listen in to.

Wile Herupā was listening, they saw something out of the corner of their eye.

Looking toward the edge of the playground they see a shadow of a person that's not there.

Herupā taps Harriet's arm to get her attention.

Harriet's POV:

Having said goodbye to Mr Snake, she turns to Herupā.

'did you see them?'

*Yes, I spotted them near the edge*

'very good job Herupā!'

"Looks like we found our man..."

I'm sorry this took so long!!! I had to do this during class so I'm sorry this is bad!! I did try really hard so please forgive me!

I'll try to get the next chapter up by today or tomorrow, tell me what you guys think so far!
