Song above: Irish Tavern Music (because why not)
I could feel a ray of sun hit me square in the face, coming through the hole in the roof. Morning.
Groaning, I sat up in my warm sleeping bag, only to be met with the cold emptiness of my hidden room. It was going to be quite lonely without Chesh waking me up in the morning, his funny grin being the first thing my eyes saw.
With a big huff, I tried to make myself look halfway decent my coming through my hair. Oh well, not like anyone will really care. After having a quick breakfast of tea and blueberry crumpets, I climbed out of the hole in the roof to greet the sun. It was barely dawn and no one was awake yet, except for me and the mockingbirds.
"Better get a move on," I whispered to myself,"gonna be a long day."
After three hours of hiking through the woods, I came to an open area with no trees. A huge boulder with purple swirls in it sat in the middle like a fat, lazy cat.
A deep smile made it's way to my face. "Ah, there you are. I've been looking for you, ya know? You are good at hiding, but not good enough." I said, my signature smirk making its way to my face.
Holding out my hand, I walked up to the rock and set my splayed my hand out onto it, closing my eyes.
With a deep breath, I began to chant. "Take me
take me
somewhere new.
Somewhere near
somewhere far.
Take me
take me
to a place
I may call home."While I chanted this four more times, I could feel the wind pick up around my legs as my waistcoat flapped about me. I became aware of a slight wirring sound while my legs buckled beneath me and I felt extremely dizzy. Then, just like that, everything stopped and I felt sunlight stroke my face once more. Hesitantly opening my eyes, I saw massive trees circling me. A small town could be heard not far away. I have now officially left Wonderland.
"Now, where have you taken me?" Seeing as I wouldn't be getting an answer back, I hopped up and brushed off my waistcoat, checking for injuries. Thankfully I was unscathed, allowing me to adventure towards the town.
Not before long I was at the entrance of the town, walking through an area full of shops. Cheerful men and women were laughing with each other, adding an ecstatic vibe to the already exciting place. I reached a small pub that offered free music and dancing. I'm not much of a drinker, but I love to dance. Quick, smooth and spicy music wafted into my ears and took over my body.
I was swaying and jumping and having an all around good time. People cheered when I danced by (some even threw money at me. I'm not a stripper but oh well free money). My wild black hair flowed everywhere and men tried to touch it, but I danced off too quickly for them to get their hands on me.
Suddenly, the feeble wooden doors to the tavern slammed open and a man with a lovely British accent shouted,"Aye! Silence!" Everyone in the room went completely silent, even the music. My eyes flew open and my body stopped moving as I looked for the man who was yelling.
"Ahhh... I see my reputation proceeds me. I am Captain Hook, as you have all presumed,"He announced, putting emphasis on the C and H in his name. This "Hook" was a most dashing man, with a light beard and dark, wild hair. His voice was like honey on a warm summers day. He was almost... entrancing.
Nononono. I did NOT run away to fall in love with some stranger! And besides, with the way the other women look at him, he must be a ladies man. Snap out of it, Kit, he is probably just a common manwhore.
A bold front taking over me, I jumped on top of a table and marched right over to the man, gazing down upon him. Hook looked right at me, a stare that almost made my knees go weak. Almost.
Clearing my throat, I said,"Excuse me Mister, but your being an ass. You don't own this place, so how about you calm down and get a drink- or leave." A few men and women whistled behind me, enjoying my boldness towards Hook. As for Hook, his eyes bulged for a second when I called him an ass, but quickly reverted to their normal, Oh-look-at-me-I'm-so-sexy gaze.
"And who may you be, darling?" He asked, his smooth voice making me falter again.
Regaining confidence, I replied,"Certainly not yours, asshat." Now he looked me directly in the eyes and smirked. Oh no, too can play that game. Smirking right back, I turned to the band and shouted,"Turn the music back on!" It almost instantly went back on, the brash toon taking me into a trance one again. Jumping down from the table, ! began to dance again, forgetting about the man.
As I was dancing, I felt a presence behind me. I spun around and barely opened my eyes, seeing Hook extremely close to me and going to grab my wrist. Awh hell nawh. Thinking quickly, I grabbed the hand going for my wrist, pulling him further towards me and at the same time shooting my other fist at his nose. He practically flew to the ground, a yelp escaping his mouth.
"No one touches me without my permission, and it would do you well to remember that."
