Lurve-Monsteh Brylea nodded. "Yup. I had lots of friends and we always hung out..." She trailed off and thought about it for a second then looked at Char and shurgged. Charlotte looked away,grabbing another book from the shelf then sitting promptly down in a purple bean cushion,the balls shifted for a while then settled.She mortioned to a seat nearby. you could always start reading now?winking she tossed a book quiet acurately into Bry's hands.

Brylea caught the book and followed Char to the bean bags and plopped down into the one next to Char. "Well, I guess. I just never really liked reading." she laughed a bit and opened the book.

Joy moved in slowly, her eyes darting from side to side. She would appear to most as parranoid (Oh god, I can't remember how to spell that). THat was mainly because she was. She was short, about 5'3, but she was extremely tall for a drow. She wore ragged purple clothes and her white-blond hair fell over her face. She had dull eyes, empty of any emotion, and a dull, depressed face all together. She clutched a large purple book to her chest and she moved slowly toward a section where she had found sheets that she could write music on. They were right next to the poetry section. She placed a hand on them and moved to a dusty, empty table and began writing various music peices copied from books.

((I have to continue the rp as this plays an important part of Charlotte's..er life?))
Arya jumped up to the top of Charlottes beanbag,purring unnatural loud behind Her head,feeling the vibrations down her neck Charlotte watched the small cat,wondering all the while why its eyes seemed to be focusing on the book her hand rested on.
Alice in....wonderland?
Charlotte murmmered,reaching for the book.
She glanced at the front cover,a young alice sat at a table surrounded by the other characters of the book.Including some of Charlotte's personal favourites like the mad hatter and cheshire cat.
She flipped to the first page,watching as Arya's eyes followed the direction.
Charlotte flipped another not bothering to read the first page,still Arya followed.
frowning she began to wonder what sort of cat she had really picked up from the cemetery.
Her hand faltered at a page,her favourite chapter,the mad tea party.
Finishing the last sentence she began to turn the page until the picture caught her eye.
There in the seat which Alice should have been was instead a teenage girl,a bit younger then Charlotte herself!
She had a school uniform on and devil horns sprouted from her head,a vibrant blonde hair encircled them and rested above her shoulders.
what the....Charlotte began.

Charlotte dropped the book alarmewd it may be spelled in any way she looked away then looked back again,then suddenly Arya had leaped upon the book sitting upon tha page,when next Charlotte looked however the girl was where Arya had been,though now Arya was on her lap,purring happily.
Charlotte gasped,her mouth hung open.THe girl in the teaparty now sat in front of her like she was still with the mad hatter. Checking back on the book alice was once again in her rightful place,though Charlotte noted her hair looked slightly ruffled.
who are you?what are you doing here?
Charlotte stammered,subconciesly moving away from the girl in her seat.
She looked at Chalotte obviously unaware what had just happened.
I am madison,I do not know
It took Charlotte a minute to fully understand that Madison had said the answer as Charlotte has asked the question,who are you-Madison. Why are you here?-I do not know.
How can you not know,you just turned up here from....where?

~*~
Charlotte shook her head,at least Arya seemed happy and for a few moments she envied the purring jet black cat wich could so easily be content.
Do you know anything about yourself? She resolved to say.
She motioned for Arya to come back to her,almost hoping that the cat's brief contact with madison would shed a miraculas light on her history.
~*~
I do not remember anything"
Madison replied,She enjoyed the small cat in her lap,gazing at it constantly.
where did I come from? she wondered to herself,the past seeming a blur.
All she could remember was a few things and it seemed the woman could not yet ask the right question.
~*~
Charlotte repeated her question,slightly more irritated then anything.Mostly that HER cat would rather spend time with madison then her then another part was irritated that Madison could not give her the info she wanted.
Madison repeated herself and once again Charlotte's frustration grew a notch.
She repeated the answer over again,"I do not remember anything"
finally relising what the girl actually ment she sighed.
what do you remember?,by the way I'm charlotte.
~*~
Happy to know the strange girls name she observed her more closely.Names were a portal into a persons soul she thought.A private view into what their personality would be like.She did not bother thinking of where she had heard this.She knew that if she tried to think only a muffled blur would appear.
I remember you...and this!
She exclaimed,grabbing the Alice and wonderland book tightly as if it where really a precious child instead of the colourful hard cover bound book it was. She flicked through it then frowned.
I..remember it,but not like this.
~*~
Charlotte frowned as well,as far as she knew no other versions of Alice in wonderland had ever been made. Sure the shelf she had gotten it from had many other novelisations but they all held the same story line right?
You must be mistake,there are no other books,they all go like that one
Charlotte tried clearing up the confusion slightly.Thinking it may be possible the girl was few clogs short of a clock,or something along those lines.
Finally Arya came over to her,climbing over her shoulder to knot up her hair and purr madly once again.
~*~
Madison relized as the small cat left she would miss it and did not reply to charlotte,but merly let a small tear plop down her nose and onto a page of the book,for no reason she felt a sadness,letting her head sag low.
perhaps it is because I can not remember? she thought to herself.She raised her head a little towards Charlotte.
But...I know it DOES exist and it IS here somewhere
getting up she glanced around the aisle and almost started sprinting down the nearest aisle,were it not for the fact she wanted to see if the cat would follow,she had take quiet a likeing to it.tb Though she kept the alice in wonderland book in her hands.
You believe me right?
She looked up at Charlotte,pleadingly as if doing so would instantly change Charlotte's mind.

~*~ Charlotte looked at Madison,noticing how much smaller she was then herself,it surprised her since Madison had seemed so much taller sitting down.She also stood up,catching Arya as she slid down her back,though the small kitten seemed not the least bit worried.
She looked so sad,resting a hand on Maddisons shoulder Charlotte smiled,forcing it into her eyes and hopefully into her soul.
There may be such a book,though I've yet to see or read it despite the long list of books behind me.
She made to take the book from Madisons hands though Madison clutched it firmly to her chest.
Do you have a place to stay?
~*~
Shaking her head she looked downcast again,she spotted a sign nearby.
library! She thought,reading the sign again. THat ment she could borrow the book.She quickly turned to Charlotte.
Where did you get this?I need them ALL.
She thrust the book at Charlotte,showing it was what she ment.
~*~
Charlotte took a step back,startled by the sudden mood swings Maddison seemed to be having.
er...over there Charlotte pointed in the direction of the fiction area and began to make her way over there,poiting out the rest of the Alice in wonderland books. She gathered the four remaining and made her way back to Madison.
There all like that one though and er...you can stay with me,as long as you have no where else to go.Maddie
She addd nervously, making her way to the front desk,no one was there as usual and she was left thinking what she had at the beggining of the strange journy.she quickly sighned out the books and exited.
Oh charlotte,what have you gotten yourself into now!?
~*~
Maddison,bounced at her new nickname Charlotte had given her,though she remained unaware how nice of Charlotte it was to let her live with her,it had almost seemed....destined.
Though the books seemed more important at the momment and her thought changed from happiness to seriousness about them.would they help her at all?
explain what she was?
A small flash came into her head and made her stop,the distinct image of first a teapot then a small but angry blonde haired girl had come into her head.
she bipassed it though and continued after Charlotte and out the library.

Madison entered the library hand in hand with Fang. THe familar must smell filled her nostrils and she coughed slightly,raising her hand in a fist shape to her mouth to cover it.
Well here we are
She breathed,almost like she was returning to a home she had long ago left instead of just entering a public,government run building.
She took a step inside and made her way over to a shelf full of fairy tales. On the opposite side were there counter-parts,ones that explained history or were more horrific versions.
kinda funny how that works huh?
She said motioning to the odd placement of the books. She ran her fingers over a few,leaving a trail void of dust and gently letting go of Fang's hands.
Start with Lewis's works,what he writes is so intersting.
She pulled out a couple of book with Lewis Carol's name on them in gilded letters. She then glanced at the books on the other side,sighing that the book she had desperetly wanted for so long still was missing,a gap between were it should have been was the only clue it even existed.

Fang looked around and marveled at all the glorious books that were around him. He sighed with happiness and followed Madison, glancing around every once in awhile. He saw how the books were arranged and let out a little laugh. "It would be funny if a little kid accidently grabbed one of the horrific versions instead of one of the regulars." He said quietly. He looked at the books on the shelf, excited to know that he was going to read new things.

Madison laughed,the thoght had never crossed her mind but now she had actually heard it it sounded quiet funnily enough possible.
I guess we'd have to hpe someone older an wiser in this aisle was there.[/b]
She glanced over at the tables,a few book lay scattered on them and she went over to have a look,another man's trash was another man's treasure right?
She glanced back at fang,he seemed ingrossed with the book and she called back that h make extra sure he read 'the hunting of the snark'.

"Alright. Will do." He said and continued reading more of it. Even if he went out of the house more, he still took the time to read books. They had been his best friends through rough times, and he wouldn't just turn his back on them now.

Madison giggled slightly and approached the closest desk. A large red leather bound book was face down and she flipped it over to get a better look.
She gasped as she saw the sinister illustrations. The tile was Alice in wonderland but it looked so far from that. The background of the book was an eerie black with a center light pointed straight down upon a woman who seemed to represent the quen of hearts. In her arms was Alice who she seemed to have turned more into a lap dog,Alice worea pittiful expression. To the left of the book stood the mad hatter,his eyes overhadowed but a demonic smile was the only clue to his truefeelings,he was dressed in a crimson garment and to his left sat the hare.changed to a sexy succubus bunny demon. Then to the right was he cheshire cat,cartoony and almost fun looking if it hadn't of been for the small bird that was trapped under it's paw. All in all it looked more like a book for some kind of satanist cult. She raised her hand to her mouth,the book almost let out the sense that it must be read.She rested a hand on the cover,about to open the first page but thought other wise. Instead putting it under her arm to read later. Personally it freaked her out a little.
Hey Fang? she called out. Have you ever seen a book like this one?
She hurried over to him and rested the book on top of a ladder put there to reach the higher shelves.
