Alyssa smiled as she followed him. "She is well. She runs her fathers buisness, she's stubborn, she does'nt let age keep her down." she looked at him. "You can say she has much, or maybe even more Muchness with her." She laughed as she used the word her grandmother learned from the Hatter. "She has told me I have muchness too. She would know, she raised me herself after my mother died in child birth, and my father is never around."

The Hatter looked at her. "I believe she has stayed the same." He turned to a cupboard. "And I hope you have your grandmother's muchness." He looked back at her and stepped close to her. "But I can see it. You have it in your eyes. You have her eyes." He stood there for a while and just looked at her, deep, without any emotion shown at his face, without moving or saying anything.

He stood there for a while watching her before her went back to the cupboard like nothing had happened. "At least I hope so..." He thought for a while. "The White Queen is awaiting you already, Alyssa. Take your muchness with you. You will need it. We will need it." He searched for a few clothes and took out a few of those she could wear, then studied her closer and smiled a bit, then turned away to get a special one out for her, the one Alice had worn before her. "Try this."

Alyssa nodded, she was blushing constantly. Th way he looked at her . . . She went into the other room to change and returned after a few moments. "How do I look?" she asked spining.

Tarrant smiled again as he looked at her. "You are her, Alice. You have everything like her." He offered her his arm. "Come, go outside. We can't have the White Queen to wait."

Alyssa nodded and took his arm, and at that moment she felt like she belonged, it felt right to hold his arm. she looked at him, wondering if he noticed it too.

Tarrant held her arm, he blinked a bit to look down at her, noticing she felt happy. He clutched her arm a little tighter, also feeling something about it; it didn't seem like he was leading a stranger around Wonderland, it seemed just like Alice had returned.

Alyssa smiled and unknowingly leaned her head on his arm as they walked. She felt content.

*Sorry for being away for a few days *

The Red Queen took the "club" she was given and called for a "ball." Her club of choice was a flamingo and the ball a tied up hedgehog. As she hit the first ball she asked in gerenal to her subjects, "So whatever did happen to Knave? I must admit I was not happy when he tried to kill me all those years ago but I do hope he will redeem himself and come back to me."

Mally followed Ayssa and Tarrant as best she could. Mally couldn't help but smile as she could she the happiness on Alyssa's face.

Tarrant smiled a little at her as he noticed how satisfied she was. "You will meet the White Queen now. She will tell you what we will have to do against the Queen of Hearts."

The White Queen was eager to meet Alyssa. The Red Queen was moving and moving fast. She had just gotten word that her forces had pushed through her line of defense, yet again, and had to fall back farther. The White Queen was out for a walk in her garden and passed by the entrance. Off in the distance she could see figures approaching. She smiled knowing that it must have been them.
