Chapter Twelve. - Talking to Hatter and a surprise.
_
Alice shut the door behind her the minute she got into her room. Who was that man? Wash he the prince? Maybe he was... and she had tipped his drink all over him!
Alice looked around the room for a key and locked the door before sitting back against it again. She placed her head in her hands. This was great.
Suddenly, there was a ear piercing beeping noise coming from somewhere in her room, she frowned a little before getting up to see what it was. It was coming from something on her dressing table, she looked around for a bit before finding a little pocket watch, there was a red flashing light on it, Alice frowned even more, opening it up.
"Alice!" a voice said.
"Hat-" she asked, confused now. She supposed that this was wonderland's version of a telephone.
"Yes! Hello! Good evening you wonderful girl!" he said, his voice sounded unbelievably happy and stressed, like she didn't want him to say his name, there were probably recording devices in the room. he sounded happier than it did earlier that day.
"Why are you-"
"Well, you see, I am phoning you because of reasons. Reasons being, wondering if you got there safely."
"Yes I did, but I think I spilled wine over the prince..."
"WHAT? Okay, wait, how can you think you spilled wine on him?"
"Well, I wasn't sure if he was the prince or not. He was called Seth, brown hair, blue eyes." Alice explained, hoping that he wasn't the prince.
"That's the prince. Well done, Alice! You've been there less than a day and you've already spilled wine over the man who you want to impress." he said, tutting.
"Well then, I'll speak to you later I suppose." Alice said.
"Yes, goodbye." Hatter replied, then the line went dead. Alice laughed a bit, placing the pocket watch back in the drawer just as an announcement came blaring out of the roof of her bedroom.
"Will everyone please go to the main hall for a very important matter."
Alice sighed before unlocking her door and leaving for the announcement.
She managed to find the main hall very quickly, it was easy. She walked in and had to stop herself from gasping. The room was beautiful, the walls were decorated with tapestries with the history of wonderland sewn onto them, the floor was wood, it was very shiny. Then in front of her and all of the other girls and women, there were two thrones. One big one and a smaller one.
On the big one a rather large lady with red hair sat, she had a huge crown on top of her head, it felt as if you touched her you would turn to ice, she had a permanent frown on her face and she looked ready to kill someone in an instant.
However on the smaller throne, sat Seth, who Alice had met earlier. He seemed to be counteracting his mother's cold personality with his warm and caring one, but it was obvious that he didn't want his mother to know about it. They didn't look alike at all, apart from their face shape and eyes, the rest he must have inherited from his father, who Alice dreaded to think about, seeing as he wasn't there.
"I have decided to make this competition a little bit more sadistic..." the Queen started with a smirk plastered on her cold looking face. Everyone silenced the minute she opened her eyes to speak. "There will be a number of interviews and challenges with my son here, if he comes back and says that he didn't like you, you will be enslaved for the rest of your lives."
Alice could have sworn she heard everyone's hearts stop beating. Alice knew the Queen was supposed to be horrible, but this was awful.
She glanced at Seth who had a shocked look on his face, a proper shocked look. A 'How could you do this?' look.
"And don't you worry about Seth trying to save you all, because he has no choice..." the Queen grinned. "You may all go now! The ball has been postponed until half of you are gone." she said, grinning more and she made a shooing motion with her hand, like she was flicking everybody out of the room.
