Quinn looked over at the boy who was cleaning up the shop, her fingers still tapping against her leg. She checked her watch one more time.

She turned towards the girl who had stumbled into the shop, her deep blue eyes studying her.
"I have a few things. . ." Quinn spoke up.

Scarlet walked down a generously decorated hallway in the castle, headed for the kitchens. All of a sudden, her mother’s heart-stopping shriek split the air.

Harper put her hand gingerly on her shoulder, not sure if the girl was talking to her or somebody else.

Her gloves were too small. Willow groaned and threw the gloves away, searching for a new pair. They were all too small. When had her hands gotten this big? Willow inspected her calloused hands that had dirt underneath the fingernails. Nutmeg seemed to laugh at her.
"Oh shut up, Nutmeg! I guess I have to make a trip to town." Willow sighed, "I hate going into town. Too many people and stares." she shuddered and looked at the trees that surrounded her. "The forest is like my home."

Harper flipped the hood off her head, revealing her green and blue hair. "Umm………………………………" She said, not sure what to do.

Scarlet sprinted towards the sound of the shriek, rounding a corner and freezing in the spot when she saw her mother plunge a knife into the chest of a butler, laughing maniacally as her carefully sculpted blonde curls were splattered with blood. Scarlet turned and ran as fast as she possibly could, maroon hair flying in her face while her heart pounded, ears ringing with the sound of laughter.

( Well, Quinn's father, the White Rabbit was one of Alice's butler. So now you can probably guess what happened to him . . .)

*Queen laughs in the background *

Willow went back into the house and got dressed, slipping into a yellow blouse and cuff jeans. She wiped the mud off of her white sneakers off with a towel and grabbed some money from her wallet. Venturing through the forest was always fun, as the trees and the creatures provided a cocoon of happiness, but the town was scary. Full of people and the queen. Willow picked at her fingernails and untied the bandanna from her head, causing a bunch of flowers to fall out. She giggled, her hair was full of flowers. Tucked into the crevices, nestled between the curls, just flat-out on top of her hair, the ever-lasting flowers that she grew were always finding their way into her hair and they never came out. It didn't matter anyway, she liked them.

Santiago looked up at the woman who entered the store. He glanced at her strange hair color and leaned forward against the counter. “Huh..”

Probably soon, I’m just gonna wait until we get the story circulating properly so as not to be overwhelmed with too many people right at the beginning

Quinn leaned over the counter, tucking a strand of blond hair behind her ear.
"Do you have some spare watch parts?" She asked, taking her father's watch out and placing it on the wooden counter.

Scarlet flew down the staircase, her feet carrying her as far as possible from her psychotic mother. Heart pounding furiously, the image of the butler’s horrified eyes as he slid to the floor replaying over and over again in her mind.

“I may,” Santiago said and faced away from the girl. He went through glass cabinets taking out small bolts and other mechanical items. He set them out on the counter in front of her. “This looks to be about it. Any of that look right?”

( Should Quinn have been raised in the castle? So she knew Scarlet from a young age? )

Sure!

Quinn looked through the box, her blond hair falling around her face. Her finger's tapped on the counter, matching the same rhythm as the watch next to them. She picked three up.
"These should work." Quinn replied. "How much?"

(Guys I don't know what to do right now! Harper's just kind of awkwardly waiting for someone to direct her to somewhere she can eat. XD Harper is my awkward cinnamon puff.)

Erm… maybe she could… idk, bump in to someone [literally]?

(Like who??)

“Lost?” Chelsea asked Harper, a playful smile on her lips.

Harper turned to see the owner of the voice. "Umm……….kind of."
