Of Gardens and Tea

as-madasahatter:

Hatter found himself in the gardens of Wonderland, enjoying the time away from his responsibilites to take some time out for himself. The first and foremost place that had been on his mind to check had been the gardens. There had been a law decreed that the gardens were to be protected and no one was to go in unless invited or they happened to have a key. A key would be hard to come by as only he and the White Queen had the key to the gardens, but that certainly didn’t stop anyone from trying to come in.

With a sigh, the hatter unlocked the gate and moved inside, making sure to lock the gate behind him. He quickly made his rounds, inspecting the gardens’ structures and the flowers to make sure that there was no visible signs of harms to the foliage or holes in the walls. Once he was through, he walked back towards the gate, feeling in his coat for the keys. Just as he pulled his keys out and placed it in the lock did he look up, pausing in his movements when he noticed an unfamiliar face.

“And just who might you be?”

{ ♔ } - - - - -     The brunette glanced around her, surveying her surroundings as she silently wondered where she was. Standing up, she ran a hand down her hair as she tried her best to remember how she got here but to no avail. Her mind was groggy and her senses were not that sharp yet. Kaitlyn took a few steps forward as she eyed the trees and plants as she asked herself how.

               Just moments ago she was walking down … somewhere but now, she was in a totally different place as she felt it in the atmosphere.

With no luck, she stopped. How can one be able to find a way out when they had no absolute idea of where they were? Kaitlyn felt trapped and hopeless but again, it might have been her fault in the first place. She always liked to explore and most of the time, she got to unusual places in most unexpected ways.

At the sound of the voice, she whipped her head around to the source of the question, which she reckoned was for her, only to see a man in a hat. “Cat, sir. Can you please tell me where I am?”
