Chapter 3
Tempest jumped and looked around. She didn't see anyone until a pointy hairpin caught her eye. The hairpin was held like a sword by a small brown dormouse dressed in trousers and a vest. The mouse had big brown eyes and a scowl. She had to bite her lip to keep from awing, it looked so cute.
"I asked you a question." The mouse waved the hair pin around.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to impose." Tempest held up her hands. "I was just passing through."
"Who are you and why are you in Hatter's chair?" The mouse narrowed its eyes at her.
"I didn't mean any harm. My name is Tempest." She gave the mouse a tentative smile.
"Tempest?" The mouse raised an eyebrow at her name. "What a strange name."
"Everyone thinks that. It was my dad's idea." Unconsciously her hands reached up to the hat she wore.
The mouse followed her hand and gasped. He became aggressive again, waving the pin around. "Where did you get that hat?"
Tempest became offended. "It belonged to my father. He gave it to my mother nearly thirteen years ago."
"Your mother?" The mouse was quiet for a moment with a thoughtful look. Realization dawned on him. "That hat belonged to the Hatter and he gave it to his wife, our champion, Alice."
"Yeah, she's my mother."
"You're Alice's daughter?" He dropped his arm and gaped at her.
"Yes," Tempest gave him a weary look.
"It must be fate." He sheathed his hairpin and gave a formal bow. "I am Raynum, only son of Mallymkun and Talon."
"Um… nice to meet you." Tempest bowed her head, not sure what she should do.
"Lady Tempest, you are here by destiny. I will escort you to Marmoreal." He gave her a serious look. "We must hurry before the red knights find us."
"What happened here?" She asked as she stood. Holding her hand out she waited for the mouse to scamper up it and perch himself on her shoulder.
"We want to head that way." Raynum pointed in one direction and she headed that way. He was quiet for so long she thought he wouldn't answer. "It's not a pretty story."
Vaguely she remembered what her father had told her mother before telling the tale of his clan's destruction. She counted his words. "It never is."
"You're right." The mouse sighed before answering her question. "About a year ago, your time, the Red Prince started causing trouble."
"Red Prince?"
"Yes, the Red Queen's son. Anyways, he started to argue that the White Prince, Alaric, wasn't suited to rule Underland. The Red Prince began to get followers and challenged the White Prince."
"How did he get followers?" Tempest asked, afraid of his answer.
"The same way the Red Queen did, fear." Ray indicated the burned area. "He somehow is controlling a creature that can cause this. The people fear it and follow him."
"What creature could have done this?"
"We don't know. The only thing that could was killed by your mother years ago." Ray shrugged.
"The Jabberwocky?"
"Yep, but since it's gone we can't figure what else could cause this damage. The Jabberwocky was a one of a kind."
"I suppose that isn't helping with the fear issue. People tend to fear things they don't know or understand." Tempest swatted at a low branch, voice thoughtful.
"Nope." Ray crossed his arms. "And we figured it is going to be the Red Prince's champion."
"Does your White Prince have a champion?" She looked at the mouse, dodging another low branch.
"Not yet." Ray sighed again. "The Red Prince took the Oraculum, so we're going in blind. Alaric wants to be his own champion but it's not allowed."
Tempest was silent for a long time. Maybe that's why the rabbit hole let her through. Underland needed a champion and the hole thought she was Alice. This was not good. Before she could ask anything else a loud clanging sounded from around them. She whipped around to find they surrounded by what looked like armored cards.
"Halt!" One card with eight spades stepped up, pointing its spear at her. "You are in a forbidden area. Surrender now and you will have mercy."
"Wait a minute." Temp held her hands up as two cards came up to her with chains. "There's been a misunderstanding."
"Don't talk!" Ray hissed in her ear. "RUN!"
Tempest didn't hesitate. She turned and fled, jumping over roots and logs. Behind her she could hear the cards giving chase. She ran faster, feeling the wind pushing her. When she burst through the burned forest she skidded to a stop.
Before her stood a tall cliff overlooking a rushing river. She paled and backed up. Then the knights burst through the trees. She spun to face them, backing up as they advanced on her. Raynum jumped from her shoulder when the heel of her foot hit the edge of the cliff. She felt bits of the ground give away.
"Jump and follow the river's flow." Ray demanded, drawing his hairpin.
"What?" She yelled back.
"The water's deep enough. Jump!" When she didn't he turned to her and stabbed her foot.
Tempest yelped and lifted her foot, the action had her losing her balance. She flayed her arms, pushing out behind her, trying to not fall. But to no avail, she ended up tipping over the edge. She screamed and grabbed her father's hat, clutching it to her chest. Her eyes focused on the fast approaching water and prayed she would survive.

Alice rushed to the old tree the instant the rain stopped. Her bare feet squished into the soaked grass. She jumped over fallen limbs and raised roots, splashing through the mud. She didn't care that the dirt covered her dress or that twigs were tearing at her. "Tempest!" She called when she saw the large, old tree that guarded the portal to the other world.
No answer. She circled the tree for any sign of her daughter. Nothing! Absolutely nothing! She dropped to her knees beside the rabbit hole, tears falling freely down her face. Where was her child?
Wiping at her tears she noticed the earth had been disturbed, falling into the hole. Hope flared in her chest. She leaned closer and placed her hand into the hole like she'd done hundreds of times before. And just like those times her palm hit the dirt bottom of the hole. She was still locked away.
"Why?" She asked no one. "Why can't I go back?" Lifting her face to the grey sky she swore she saw Chasseur's aqua eyes and long grin. "Please," she begged. "Let me have my family."
