Alice: But I don't want to go among mad people.
Cheshire Cat: Oh, you can't help that. Most everyone's mad here.

Cheshire Cat began to show her colors. beging to take the form of a striped cat, she smiled even wider. her teeth were yellowish and jarred large sharp teeth. Moving a large paw it slapped hard shattering againt the dead twisted tree showing the under wood as she drew her claws in.
the tree shook and flenched to the harsh blow but remained strong and standing unaffected by the wound.

"loose something little.....thingss."

she snarled. her voice was dark,evil..and female!

This cheshire cat was a Girl!

cheshire cat's head moved jerkingly as she hunched her powerful shoulders
the stature of her body was great. her spine twisted into the darkness making her seem to be swallowed by it. all that was visable to everyone was the cheshire's sinister glowing eyes, her twisted face of pure maddness to be artistically completed by a vishous smile. to complement that face of bueaty was her paw, simple and cat formed, with sharp finger like nails holding tightly as if anxous, to the tree.

she smiled reasonably almost. but there was the burning feeling in her darkened eyes that showed this insane creature was...thinking...reasoning....her mind was not lost in a world of hell bend maddness and phycopathic objects of breathing, living horror. she was thinking about what was going on.

oh the mightly cheshire cat was thinking indeed. but, to what was this brilliant masterpeice of God thinking of? Cheshire cat's dusty rose tounge slipped out slitering inbetween her front teeth and caressed her large glimmering canines, golssing them with drool as she tounge ducked away begind her toothy smile her was known for.

[laughs maniacally; starts to disappear]
Cheshire Cat: You may have noticed that I'm not all there myself.
[cheshire cat beging to sing about jabberwhocky and conpletally vanishes]

A loud whoosh was heard as Xainder and Casino Master appereaed in wonderland. the world swiriling into foccuss. They touched down on solid ground and Xainder releaced his grip on her.

"We'er here."

Xainder said in a hallow voice, He was trembleing and he looked worse for wear. as he stood unsteadly on his feet. Getting them to wonderland had taken a great tole on his already weak body, Xainder silently wondered how long he would be able to stay concious
He could feel the insanity of this world and knew staying here for long would be very bad, a place like this tends to steal even the strongest minds and turns it to jelly.

"We must hurry, If I pace out here you and everyone else might lose your sanity."

He said walking in the direction he senced they were.

Casino Master

♥♠♣♦

Casino Master slowly opened her eyes one at a time. lifting her head up she blinked and looked at the wonder. she felt like she might just faint.

"th-this is the wonderland? the one books were written of? it looks like a nomral old forest."
she said stopping herself and she sniffled smelling the air. was that tea she smelt? Casino master wouldn't be to shure of herself.
"loosing my mind sounds bad, lets get going..."
casino master followed close to him. she clenched her rifle tight against he body now nervous of what might happen.
"x-xainder?"
she said looking around the forest as she heard noises and felt eyes on her. unnatural, distored and ovously odd.

♥♠♣♦

[Pigyz_Sempai]

Xainder didnt stop to answer her, instead he continued walking even faster.
"Dont stop, dont listen to the whispers, just keep going. This place is trying to trick you, its trying to get into your mind. This place is worse then hell."

Xainder pulled out one of his orbs from under his hat, it made a strange aggitated sound. It didnt want to be exposed in this place.

Xainder turned while still walking and tosed it at Casino master.
It growled but floated to her and then sat itself on her hat then sunk down throught the hat to sit at the very base of her head.
When it did the strange sounds of wonderland and the feeling of being watched seemed to disapate and a feeling of absolute calm followed.

Casino master could feel the orbs weight on her head and realized the orb was humming which was drowning out almost all sound.

As the orb got used to its new master, the sounds it made slowly changed from humming and clicking to words.

A little boys voice, maybe that of a toddler whispered in Casino masters mind.

"You must keep focussed or you will lose your mind."

Casino Master

♥♠♣♦

Casino Master looked at xainder feeling her eyes moving inside her head.

"well thats comforting to know."

she said begining to slowly walk. hearing another noise she turned her rifle at the dark abiss and almost pulled the trigger.
feeling the orb sink into her head jumping she grabbed at it feeling nervous and pratically begining to panic. breathing heavly she shivered as the orb elaxed itsself on her head and began to talk to her.

"easy for you to say."

casino master commented back a little out of breath from her panicing and thrashing about. breathing out slowly she picked her rifle up and walked on slowly her legs shaking a small bit.

[witchy cat panther]

Roxxi
slowly stepped foward to face the cat.
standing strong she could feel the power raidating off the beast
her head held in her throat.
she was scaird of its evil smile

" we ask for your help mighty cheshire cat!"

Roxxi called out,
she watched hoping for a better reply
hoping she'd help
hoping the cheshire cat had not planned her moved before
roxxi had time to plan any herself
she watched carefully
cheshire cat was no joking matter
a friend a moment
a trickster another





OOC:

[witchy cat panther]

Cheshire Cat: How're you enjoying the game?
Alice: They don't play very fair.
Cheshire Cat: No one does if they think they can get away with it. That's a lesson you'll have to learn.

Cheshire Cat looked at Roxi intensly her yellow eyes studied her. looping her tounge back in her mouth, the rosey muscle slithered behind the inpenterable wall of yellowish fangs. blinking as she broke the spine chilling, everlasting stare she mover her lips.

"alice...."

she spoke with a charm and ring to her voice, like a bell on a string. her body remained hidden in darkness and her paw twitched in the wood as she remained in her constant state lying on the tree.

"dear, child you know not what you ask for. shurley, you have to understand that."

she spoke watching. Moving her eyes over Roxxi and to the other behind her.
cheshire cat studied the figure knowing just by one glance they were foreign to wonderland and even her. cheshire cat kept her grin. knowing a moment it would take for them to ponder her riddle and come with something else to speek she drew her paw closer to her face and layed her chin to her paw looking everyone over as though to pick a way to make them move.
like chess peices on a board. the cheshire cat looked them over contuning to stare without a blink to break.

Cheshire Cat: I went to a hunting party once, I didn't like it. Terrible people. They all started hunting me!
Alice: Life must be hard for you.
Cheshire Cat: But I grin and bear it!

[Pigyz_Sempai]

Xainder made his way to a clearish pass and standing with its back to him was a lardge strange cat creature. It was speaking To Roxxi and the others.

He backed up and turned to casino master, he singled for her to stay quiet and to look where he was looking.

Then his voice was invaded her head.

"The othes are over there, theres an ugly creature blocking our way, I hope you have a good shot because that thing looks hungry and I dont feel like haveing to find all new people for you."

He meant of corse Cheshire cat, he didnt care that he insulted it because he planed on Casino master killing it and makeing it a throw rug in to liveing room.

That or he would.

[witchy cat panther]

Casino Master

♥♠♣♦

Casino Master walked a small pacing distantance behind xainder, her mind stayed on the path but managed to be distracted by every little noise or thing.
a russle here or a wtince there.
Casino master moved on her eyes studying all around the area. looking up at Xainder she took a few more steps walking slowyl with her hands clenched to the hunting rifle. looking a his hand movments she walked up to him.
hearing his owrds and explinacation she thought of her answer.


"well, im not good at shooting but it looks big enought that if i aim the best i can i should be able to hit it in the skull."
.
walking on a step or who she looked rather timidly as she tred moving and posing the gun to strike the beast

♥♠♣♦

[witchy cat panther]

Roxxi
slowly cleared her throat
and then swallowing hard
looking at the beast she tried not
to make any faces
in chance she might offend her
roxxi moved around
shifting her weight from
side to side

" i know what i am doing, which is why i still ask for a answer"

Roxxi called out,
she was hoping cheshire cat would be willing to be nice enough for help.
she didnt know ifcheshrie cat was a friend,
foe, or calm with the jabberwhocky.
all she knew was she knew nothing
roxxi turned around to her comrads hoping they might have a idea or answer.




OOC: still need people

[witchy cat panther]

Cheshire Cat:about time to alice, purrrrrrrrrr

Cheshire Cat allowed her frozen start to hold as she contunedd looking at the traveling party. finallly her eye lids slowered touching the bottom of her eyes then reversed back up her eyes to the top of the socket.

"do you know?
do you Turely understand the context of your question and what it brings?"

The cheshire's personality shone through a little popping her T's and carring out her s'es like a snake. her teeth shone bright, making her grin rather sore to look at the strain to her face.
Looking over head cheshire cat's ears twitched lisening in on conversations, she could hear everyone hearts beating a rather musical voice to them but rather boring to lisen to after the first few beats.

Cheshire Cat:the upside is that while your small, you can see things that are nearly invisable to those who are to big to see.

[witchy cat panther]

"yes I do, now will you?"


Roxxi
answered riather tired of the cheshire cat's games.
her hands crossed together and
she moved her head to the side with attatude
Watching the cat and irratated by her mocking question
as answers to hers.
she wondered if asking this
cheshire cat was really quite a good Idea afterall.
Turning around To face the others she was hoping
maybe they might have something to say or add in help to coax
the cheshire to help them.





OOC: STILL IN NEED OF PEOPLE

[witchy cat panther]

Cheshire Cat:let us kill the story at its source

Cheshire Cat stuck her slimy tounge out and ran it across her visable paw and blinked.

"maybe."
she spoke learching back Chesire did the unexpected. she striked. A good strike too why, with in one strike she managed to engulf Leviathan with one bite he was gone, blood splittered her teeth and washed her yellow smile away. striking again she now took out Ashten tearing her into three with her massive claws.
hearing panic beging to arrupt Cheshire cat prounced up into the air and faded away till she was completally gone.
now the game of cat and mouse had begun
now it was even more dangerous becasue its hard to hide and hit what isnt there

Cheshire Cat: order in the court order in the court. order. follow order because with out order is casios

.::The Bar-keep::.

Thaddeus Juniel/ Juniel Deus

How can you end my affliction,
If you’re the sickness and I’m the cure?
Too long I have faked this addiction.
Another sacrifice to make us pure.

I believed it would justify the means; It had a hold over me.

Thaddeus looked at the entrance of the casino called "Mystique of Cards". He had been working there for only a few days and was slightly confused as to what was going on. Sighing, he ignored his confusion to start working at what he loved to do. Getting people drunk on fantastically made drinks. He walked past the doors while nodding to the security. He made it to his station and got ready for work in record time. On his way over, he did notice that some of the regular workers were missing, but still, his pushed the thoughts aside. An elderly man walked up to his part of the bar and ordered.

OOC: Sorry it's so short, but I'll have more to it after I review a little more.

As I look up from the ground.
I see darkness all around.
And I’m lost but can be found inside my mind.
Goodbye.

Forgive me my sins.

[Pigyz_Sempai]

Xainder didnt gasp as he heard Casino Master did when the giant cat attacked and ate two of their workers. Instead he poduced another gun this time with a traqleizer, If they couldnt kill it, he would catch and cage it.
The cat had disappeared but he could still sence it was in the area, it probably knew they were there already.
Xainder quickly debated in his head wheather or not he should step out into the open and reveal himself. He decided thatb he would reveal himself but make Casino Master stay in the shadow and try and shot it.

"Hey Im going to step out and distract it aswell as protect those morons, we cant afford to lose more people, stay hidden and taget that thing, when you get a clear shot aim and fire. if you miss, move potstions, dont stay in the same place. Ill keep an ivisible shieldaround you, it wont be able to see you but im sure that thing can smell you. if worst comes to worse im getting us out of here without them."

Then he Flashed Casino Master a wild Grin and stepped out of the over growth.

Xainder stepped out into plain sight and started to call in a loud voice.
"HERE KITTY,KITTY,KITTY, COME OUT AND PLAY!!!"
As he said this he made his way over to Roxxi Giveing her death glare then pushed her behind him. When his hand touched her handcuffs appeared around her wirsts atatched to a leash clipped to his beltloop.

His voice was stern as it rang in her head.
"If you try to escape, or make a sound I will turn this gun on you, and dont think for a minute that your safe, because when we get back your going from the frying pan and into the fire, your insolence will not be tolerated."

Xainder didnt look at her but kept a close watch out for the Cat. This beast could disappear and reappear anywhere it wanted, to bad Xainder knew this game, He was a master at Hide and go seek.
