Yin Yang Angel17 Shyla stared at that fixed spot as she asked, "Why would he want something from me? I'm nothing special." She shook her head, confused. "There are other people like me, who have fallen through portals? I'm not the only one?" She closed her eyes and covered ehr face wearily. "You can't be serious. Why would he dispose of them if they're not my friends? And why should I say such a thing? It a lie! I've never met anyone from the Other-side." She kept her eyes down, growing more and more frustrated. Why was this happening to her. She felt a strange emotion building up inside of her, one that she'd never felt before. She felt like she was going to explode unless she did something. She tried taking deep breaths to calm herself. But it only seemed to feed whatever it was that was making ehr feeling this way.Alyhs smiled malevolently from inside Shyla's consciouness. Just a little but more. Just a little more and then I can take over. She thought trying to contain her eagerness. She couldn't wait to get out of there and show that Cat who was boss. No one told her what to do. (o.o How does Alyhs know that it's a cat? He's invisible, OoO! *spirit fingers*) "Hey, it's ok." Cheshire tried to sound soothing. He had to do this right to prove Marie wrong. He walked over and sat at the very edge of the bed. "The king wants to marry an Other-Sider, which you happen to be. And according the the White Rabbit, he's pretty set on you. Since the rest of the Other-Siders would be of no use to him, he will get rid of them. That's what he does to people who aren't useful. He could do that to you if he desides he doesn't want you anymore. That's how the king is. Now if only we could get rid of the king and have a benevolent ruler." Cheshire threw in a sad sigh for effect.

((She had some sort of weird power that allows her to see things that are not visible to the ordinary person's eye. If it's not okay I can change.))
Shyla moved away from the spot that sunk under the supposed ghost's invisible weight. "An Other-sider? But I never told him I was and Other-sider. How could he know?" She looked at him, not really seeing him, and shook her head. "How could he ever do something like that? Why would he? No one could ever be that heartless." She slid off of the bed and started to pace back and forth agitated. "No, no, no, no." She shook her head back and forth muttering. "This has to be some kind of hoax. It has to be." She looked back at him and her face seemed to change. It grew dark and defiant and then moments later it turned sad and vulnerable. "I-I can't take this kind of pressure. I ran away from home to get away from pressure. From people depending on me to do things that I couldn't possibly do or be held responsible for." Her face crumpled and tears welled up in her eyes. She whispered, "I'm sorry." Then she bolted from the room, through the open and unlocked door. She took off down the hall.
Alyhs growled to herself and shook her head in frustrations. So close. I was so close to being able to come out and kick that guys butt. She closed her eyes and sighed wearily. She just had to start the waterworks. No I'll never be able to get out of here. That is, unless she happens to be knocked uncoscious or be in serious danger, which at the moment both are not all that improbable.

"I can't contact Rabbit now. I could tell him just to feed the other Other-Siders to a bandersnatch or the Jabberwock...unless one of the others is better looking than Shyla." The king pouted. "I really have got to stop this whole 'thinking' thing. Now I'm having second thoughts. Too bad I didn't get a good look at the other Other-Siders. I blame Cheshire!" He huffed and crossed his arms.

"I've been learning psychology for centuries, young lady. I most certainly know what I'm talking about, even if that annoying, obsessive, idiot cat refuses to accept it," the White Rabbit stated.
"Cheshire would have convinced her by now," Jade said offhandedly, really wishing to see his friend Ace, and to poet Cheshire again. He really missed that cat, disturbing-looking as he was.
"Not if the Other-Sider isn't cooperating," Mae said resonably.
"Give him ten more minutes, Jade. I'm sure by then the girl will be completely convinced and there will be no doubt in her mind," Luna reassured her ghostly buddy, picking up on his impatience.
"Can't we just set him on fire?!" Fred screeched.
Jenny glared at Fred in utter disbelief and disdain. "No! We have to get a queen first!" Fred crossed his arms and pouted angrily.
Luna looked at him sympathetically. "Get over it, Fred. You'll have your time."
Ace padded into a clearing, seeign several people, three of which he recognized. The White Rabbit, Murphy Madigan, and Jade. Two of those immediately looked at him in shock. Jade jumped up and ran over to him, flinging his arms around Ace's neck and squeezed him tightly. "Woah, woah, woah! Jade, darling! What happened to you?" Ace pushed the ghost-figment back a bit so he could look in his eyes. "When did you die and who's that other girl? The blonde?" Jade glaned down, rather sadly. "After you and Alice left me, I killed myself," he murmured quietly, wanting to avoid the subject entirely. "The blonde is Luna - I'm one of five of her figments." At this Ace raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Well then I'm pleased to meet Miss Luna. Takes quite a person to keep and hide four Figments from an Heir to the Throne." Ace looked at her in respect and she smiled back, waving. "The other girl is Marie - she convinced Cheshire to go convince another Other-Sider to help us take over the throne," Jade explained. "You realize that if I walked back into the Palace and decided I wanted the crown, I'd automatically become King?" Jade shook his head. "I had no idea you were here, Ace. I was hoping you were, but I really didn't know for sure." Ace nodded. "Now, I'm going to give that smexy magic rabbit voer there a hug and we'll hop right to taking that crown from my little brother. Pardon the pun," Ace said, untangling Jade form himself and stepping over to the White Rabbit who scowled at him but didn't even twitch when Ace enveloped him in a tight hug. "I missed you, you old geezer!" Ace laughed, sliding his hand under the Rabbit's top hat and ruffling his brown hair. The White Rabbit removed his hat and smoothed down his straight hair before replacing his hat. "And I you. Of course, things would have been a great deal easier on everyone if you'd just accepted your responsibilities when you were supposed to," he said in a very disapproving tone. Ace gave him a sheepish smile. "I'm still not going to take it - I'll find someone to take over the Crown so I can go screw off again," he grinned. The White Rabbit rolled his eyes. "You would," he muttered.

Marie blinked at the new-comer before hanging her head and pressing her thumb and forefinger against her eyes.
"Geeze, this is all just too much. Are all the people here flakes?"

She saw chairs and sofas and many other things that looked ornately beautiful. She wandered over to one of them and sat down. Holding her head in her hands she to deep breaths trying to calm her frazzled nerves.Alec walked back and forth muttering to himself. "I'm am going to get that...that...spoiled uptight brat if it's the last thing I do." He muttered and few more mutinous things as he mulled over what he planned to do. What he was most upset about was that the King had stolen his precious prize, Shyla. The diamond in the rough. He shook his head angrily as he remembered how she had knocked him around. At the time he had been angry for it made if look weak in front of the King but now it rather intrigued him. He would find out about ehr sudden personality change. Oh yes he would. He smiled maliciously as he left the room he was in and went in search of her.

Shyla sat there on the sofa, head in her hands, and pondered over what she should do. She wasn't sure if she could just outright lie to the King. She didn't even know these people or what they had planned. What if they were the bad guys and not the king, as thye had previously said? She groaned softly and fell sideways on the sofa. She pulled her legs up and curled into a ball. "hat should I do?" She murmured quietly. "I'm so lost. And so alone."

Cheshire stood outside the lounge and sighed.
"Bandersnatch. I'm not good with sad people." He rubbed his face. "I might as well leave and tell the others. Damnit, I just know Marie and Rabbit are going to rub this in my face." Cheshire padded away quickly.
"Arrgh~!" The King groaned. "I am SO bored. When is Rabbit and Madigan going to get back with the OtherSiders. I bet that damn Cheshire is doing something annoying and inconvenient. I really need to kill that damn cat." The king sighed and stared at the ceiling. "On the bright side, I'm so bored it's actually kind of interesting."

The Midget Saint_Oriel Ace leaned back so he could clearly see Marie. "Flake? What is a flake?" he questioned, unfamiliar with the term. [And so am I. Are you calling Ace gay?] "A flake is an odd person with irrational ideas that shirks their responsiblites." Marie replyed in a dictionary-typle fasion. She didn't bother to look up. [I think Cheshire really likes Marie . . . Too bad he's going to have to fight Murphy over her. xD] Ace nodded in sudden understanding. "Well, as long as your aren't calling me gay, I'm sure it's all good.""Marie," the Whtie Rabbit said, adjusting his umbrella slightly. "It appears you've won your bet with the Cheshire Cat." Most unfortunately, the Rabbit could sense the Cheshire Cat's approach. Horrible creature - ought to have been killed from birth before he had a chance to harm Wonderland.[How will Cheshire react to Ace and the fact that Ace has still got his arms around Rabbit? xD It'd be funny if it irritated him.]

Shyla laid there dor a few more minutes then ssat up, wiping her eyes. She couldn't just sit there moping. She had to get up and move around. Or else...or else she might not be able to get up again. She couldn't let the grief overwhelm her or it might crush her. She stood up and took a few deep breaths before venturing from the room and going to explore the castle. "I wonder where the King is?" She murmured the paused. "And I wonder if what the...ghost...said was true." She didn't know but she was going to try and find out. Her expression was soft vulnerable, and timid as she crept tentatively through the halls.

Huh." Marie tapped her chin. "I should have made it a real bet and gotten something out of it." Just Cheshire's hand appeared on Marie's head before the rest of him slowly appeared.
"You know, I never expected to hear something like that coming out of you." He lead on her head for a bit before messing up her hair. Cheshire blinked, just noticing Ace.
"Hey!-Heeey..." He gave Ace a wary look. "How come you're hugging Rabbit..." Cheshire disappeard before reappearing right next to Ace, leaning on his shoulder. "..When you could be hugging me?""Stop trying to draw attention away from the fact that you failed." Marie scowled, smoothing her hair down. Cheshire jerked visibly, his tail straitening out. (I'm not sure Marie could take the drama XD)"Might as well go to my chambers." The King sighed, getting out of his throne and padding out of the throne room.

Shyla wandered through the halls, her mind whirling with astonishment at all of the decorations and finery. She wasn't paying much attention when all of the sudden she found ehrself in front of a door, nearly running into it. She looked around and then reached for the handle. It swung open and she stepped inside, curiously. She looked around and marveled and plush bedroom furniture. "I wonder what part of the castle this is?"
