Part 6:Threat
As we head back to the garden, I silently murmured about what Happened... Grrr! I have to forget that!!!
"Concentrate... Inhale... Exhale.."I whispered as I do what I say..
"Hey Alice!!"As I turned around, I saw Thackery.
"Thackery.."I smiled, I can't even say a single word because I am confused right now... I can't focus.
"Aren't you excitedddd!! You seem so... Down"Thackery said, jumping on my shoulder and looking at me in the eye.
"Haha.. But I'm fine..."I looked away and sighed.
"Are you sure Alice?"Mirana asked.
"Yes, i'll just have to forget what I saw... And I still can change the future..."
As I looked behind me, I saw Hatter... He seems playing around... But I don't think he's fine...
Hatter jumps around as if he was REALLY Happy...
But...
Is he sad because of what he saw?... Or maybe how I felt..?
I then walked beside Hatter who was still Jumping around,"Can I talk to you for a moment?"
"Yeahh sureee!"Hatter then stopped jumping around and just walk in a normal pace...
"What was your reaction the moment you saw my future?"I asked...
"Well... How do I put this hmmm... Worried?"He then started Laughing and jump around once again..
"What would you do?.."
"Stop the Wedding if ever you don't want to have it... Because I don't want my Dear Alice to be sad and stuck in that kind of Marriage.."His expression was back to that... Sad Hatter who was trying to get his family back...
I didn't say a word afterwards, even after we arrived in the garden..
The picnic started, and Hatter and I didn't even say a word to each other, even to others...
The Picnic ended and we were both quiet...
We head back to Hatter's home, So silent that it'll make you crazy...
I kept glancing at Hatter, finding words to say... But he broke the Silence first.
"So... What do you want to do today?.."Hatter asked, still uneasy and a bit awkward..
"I don't know..."I sighed...
"Well it's alright. It's better to stay home than stay outside..."Hatter smiled..
Until I heard something downstairs..
"Did you hear that?.."I then stood up and opened the door slowly... Hatter was behind me carrying a broken pipe..
We slowly headed downstairs to see a hooded man carrying a gun..
"What the.."Hatter pulled me behind the wall as we peek at the man..
I can't see his face clearly... It's covered with mask... But his eyes seems familiar... Somewhere... I have seen before...
The Man then slowly walk towards our direction, and My heart throbs faster..
"Who on earth was that...."I whispered, voice shaking..
"An intruder.."Hatter replied..
But the Man dashed outside by using a window when Mirana knocked on the door..
"You know what.. Let's secure the windows and door.."I said, opening the door.
"Your Majesty!! There's an intruder who entered my house!!"Hatter suddenly burst out and shouted.
"Woah.. Calm down Hatter... I was suppose to tell you the same thing... He seems in search of something... Do you know where he went?"Mirana was looking around the house..
"Yes, he jumped over the window!"I said, pointing on that window where he jumped over...
Until I felt something... Like someone was looking at me..
I turned around and saw that Hooded man, pointing a gun at me.
"GET DOWN EVERYONE!"I shouted as the man pulled the trigger.
"Ahhh! Am I gonna die?!"Hatter shouted.
"I think this is just a way to threaten us all.."Mirana said, covering her head as we ducked.
I slowly stood up and saw him leaving..
"Yeah.. I guess you're right... But who on earth would send a gun man to threaten us?!"I said.
"hmm... Everyone's in good terms.. Every kingdom... So... Why.. And who..."Mirana then pondered and sighed..
"Maybe it will be better when we investigate and know who's behind this..."I replied, sitting down and thinking more and more! I'm overthinking!! Grr! Im gonna burst out!!
Mirana then left, saying a goodbye and be careful..
While Hatter locked every windows and doors...
"Alice, maybe you shouldn't think too much.."Hatter tapped my shoulder and walk upstairs..
"The Looking Glass... I left some of my belongings in Hamish's mansion... The Looking..."I stood up, eyes widened,"Somebody must have come through the Looking glass by using one of my belongings to get here!!.. But who... Would... Besides Mirana locked the portal... Unless that person was here before me.."
I then ran outside, not thinking about Hatter.. I just need to find that man... And know his intentions...
