Chapter 16

3rd Person POV

Ali: So, Kai, Jay, Cole, Zane, Morro, Lloyd, Skylor, Pixal, Seliel and Lizzy fell down through the rabbit hole once again, which took them across Wonderland so they could get to the Queen of Heart's palace.

Lizzy looked ahead, only to see the castle miles away. They could only see the silhouette of it. "Rabbit, this wasn't a short cut at all."

"Oh dear, we took a wrong turn at the flying teapot! This way!" The group of ten followed after him.

Ali: Lizzy Hearts' mother was in danger from Camille Jester. Camille wants to find the Storybook of Legends and sign her name in Lizzy's page in order to steal her destiny as the next Queen of Hearts. Oh! And the White Knight is duelling with the Red Knight so that the group could escape from Wonderland High.

"The students!" Scott realised, "They've fled the scene!"

"And that means their school day is over!" The White Knight retorted, swinging their sword. The Red Knight growled, "It was my sworn duty not to let that happen!" His horse strode up behind him and he clambered on, "I'll bring them back if it's the last thing I do!"

The White Knight's horse appeared shortly after, and they too, fled after, brandishing their sword. As they rode on, the sounds of metal swords clinking could be heard as they rode off into the distance.

"Name?"

"Jeff the Alligator."

"Right then, in you go."

From the bushes afar, Camille popped her head through, watching the long queue of guests waiting to enter the palace grounds.

"Name?"

"I can't remember."

"Right then, in you go!"

On a tree branch near the entrance, Tox appeared, with the signature grin on her face. Perched on the branch, she looked around, "Mom? She must already be inside." She disappeared again.

"Name?"

"Bill the Lizard."

"Right then in you go."

Camille skipped ahead of the queue and stood in front of the two guards.

"I'm just in time for the party!"

"Name?"

"Camille Jester!"

"Camille, Jester..." they consulted the large list, "Pfft, Jester eh? What a big surprise! You're not on the list, can't come in. Step aside! Name?" The guards shoved her to a side and continued with their jobs.

"Johnny,"

"Right then, in you go. Name?"

Camille growled in frustration and stormed off muttering under her breath, "Can't let Camille in, she's just a lowly joker. Shuffle her to the bottom of the deck where she belongs!" she stared at the book of spells in her hand, only to see a small playing card poking through. She picked it up and frowned at it, "What's this?" she looked at the card and read aloud, "Just say who you want to be, and that's you that they will see..." her face stretched into an evil smirk, "Well this is going to be fun!"

She marched back up to the queue, grinning triumphantly, "Step aside! I'm on my way to see my mother!"

"Listen, didn't I already tell you to get lost?"

"Oh, I should hope not. After all, that's no way to talk to..." she swiped the card in front of her face, "Lizzy Hearts, your princess!" Her card had enabled her to forge into a different person, and hypothesise the guards, "I must see my mother!" she snapped in the accent Lizzy spoke with.
