“I need to get something… call my name if your gonna die.” Chelsea said to Cade, she flashed Scarlet a mad smile and disappeared.

(Chelsea can be a superhero. xD)

Lol

Gtg

"I beg to differ." Cade said, remembering the disgusting stories he'd heard about the Queen.

Quinn sighed, and stepped towards him. Cade backed into the table, where Matt screamed a few unintelligible words about his tea cups and about how his tea party was ruined.

Cade jumped up onto the table, knocking a few tea cups and plates to the ground as he stood up. He pointed his knife at the princess again. "I'm sure many of the villagers back home would be glad to see you dead, and I'm not one to disappoint."

Quinn tilted her head to the side and flashed a bright smile. "Touch her. . . and your dead." She repeated, stepping onto the table as well, holding her two short swords once again. "All those villagers are clueless. Her mother does not define who she is."

Cade backed away, nearly falling off the table. He slashed at the girl, not actually wanting to kill her. It was the princess he cared about. "She can speak for herself, and I don't see her backing you up."

"What do you know about her, huh?" Quinn continued to walk towards Cade. "All you do is run around, fueling your hatred based on what. . . the villagers? They don't know what they're talking about."

"My hatred for the Queen is based off her killing my great great grandmother and my mom's whole family." Cade growled. "The villagers and my family agree with me." He left out the part that most of the villagers were his family.

Quinn bit her lip, thinking about what to say. "My father died too. . . the White Rabbit. I've spent most of my life in the castle, and I know that Scarlet is different. She can help us kill the Queen." She explained, her gaze softening.

Scarlet stepped between them. “I hate the Queen with every filament if my soul, of course I’m out to kill her.”

(Can someone call Chelsea?)

Sure

"Kill your mother?" Wait…the princess was good? Cade shook his head, not believing it. "I'm going to need more proof."

“Fine.”, Scarlet said, stepping back. “The Queen, in my lifetime, has: force-fed me a human heart, killed my favourite maid, who was like a big sister to me, while she made me watch and chained to the table, dying my hair red with her blood. She also threatened to strangle me and go on another of her killing sprees —which she usually targeted the youngest children— if I didn’t kill the Cheshire Cat, who I’d known and loved for four years, and murdered six babies from the nursery because I beat her in a game of chess. What the [swears] makes you think I love her?!”

Cade nearly dropped his knife. He looked at the princess with shock, then around at the other girls. "I knew the Queen was evil…but I had no idea that she hated her daughter so much."

Scarlet smiled wryly. “The problem isn’t that she hates me, it’s that she’s gone completely insane.”

Quinn folded her arms over her chest. "You can't even believe the things that happened when I was there. . . I couldn't bear to be in a room alone with the Queen. Imagine my father. . ." She closed her eyes and sighed.

He laughed a little. "You've got that right. Before the Queen killed my great grandmother, she would tell me stories about what the Queen used to be like when she came here." Cade shook his head. "I almost didn't believe her."

"Stories? What's the story?" Quinn asked Cade, curious to know.

Scarlet tied her hair into a bun. “You were lucky. Now, are you coming or not?”

He opened his mouth to answer Quinn's question, but shut it when the princess spoke. "I should bring the things I got for my mother home…but I do like a good adventure." Cade grinned, putting his knife away.

“Sure, how long will it take? But if you kill anyone, I’ll kill you.

Quinn slipped her two short swords back into the straps on her back. She smiled and nodded. "Welcome aboard, sweetheart." She said, hopping down from the table. "I'm gonna get Matt." She walked towards the Mad Hatter's son, who was still drinking from his flask.
