The Red Queen (Hearts Are Red Like Roses IX)

♥︎Amelia's POV ♥︎

"I need you to take Alice to where the Vorpal sword is being kept" said Mr Rabbit

"Where is it?" I asked, he hopped on the side of the window and pointed at the small little house 

"There. However, the Bandersnatch is guarding the sword, we have to find a way for it to trust Alice" he remarked

"How are we suppose to do that?" we stayed silent for a second, then an idea must've popped into Mr Rabbit's head cause she shot his head at me 

"Mally has its eye! Find her, get the eye, then give it to Alice and tell her to go to Marmoreal" 

"Great! Um, who's Mally?" I asked

"Mallymkun, she's the dormouse you met when you first came here" 

"Ah, got it! Oh, what will you do?"

"I'll retrieve back the Oraculum. Ilosolvic ended up getting a hold of it, so I must get it back" he stated and I nodded  

"I'll see you soon, Mr Rabbit" I turned and started to walk, I stopped when he called making me face him

"Be careful" 

"You too" I said and gave him a reassuring smile, then left to find Mally

I began searching for her and to my luck I ended finding her with ease, she was looking around through door to door for the Mad Hatter, who I presume is the man with orange hair and acts a little mad "Mallymkun?" 

The dormouse turned to me "Ah, it's you again"

"Would you still happen to have the Bandersnatch's eye?" I asked, she reached to her side and showed a white ball in a net 

"Right here!"

"I need it" 

"Try and grab it!" she exclaimed and swings her tiny sword, I didn't had time to play games right now, so I just snatched it and rushed to find Alice "Hey! Give it back!" she yelled and I ignore her words 

Walking the halls and through doors to doors, then after I passed one more door I saw Alice pressed against the wall while Stayne has both of his hands on the wall, cornering her. Anger grew bigger for this guy

I knew this guy is up to no good to anyone, but himself!

I quickly hid the eye in my pocket and rushed to grab Alice "Hands off of her, Stayne!" when I grab a hold of Alice I didn't stop and continued walking with her. When we were out of there I asked her whether she was okay and if she's hurt

"No, I'm fine, thank you"

"No need to thank me, I've always got your back. Here" I then secretly handed the Bandersnatch's eye "I'm taking you to the Vorpal sword, but the queen's is beast guarding it, give that to let you pass" I informed her with a firm voice

"Amelia, how did you get here?" she asked

"Now's not the time to discuss about how I got here" then she stopped and pulled me to the side with ease since she was much bigger than me

"I'm serious, I want to know how did you get here and if you're alright or not? You're like a sister to me" she said seriously and I sighed 

"I fell into a hole and ended up in a room filled with doors, once I got out I ended up here, that all happened about a month ago"

"I'm sorry, a month ago? You've only been gone for a couple of hours for me"

"Time runs by differently here" the bandage on her arm manage to catch my eyes' attention "What happened there?" I pointed, she looked at her arm and removed the the bandage, her wounds were still raw and swollen
