Playing in the Queen of Hearts' Castle

While Jake and Emmett are trying to find their way out the Snow Queen decides to bring her victims a visit. She and her Skua both go down to the place where they locked Emmett and Jake before. Suddenly the Queen stops.

Skua: What's wrong my Queen?
SQ: Someone has opened the door. I locked it and it's unlocked

The Queen carefully enters the door and walks down the stairs. There she spots the remains of Arthur.

SQ: What happened to him? Who had given him permission to visit this place? And who killed him?

She becomes angry and kicks the skull.

Skua: My queen...look over there...

The Skua notices both brothers are gone. He points at the empty places both Emmett and Jake were sleeping before.
The Queen becomes furious when she sees this. She raises her spear and slammed it down with all anger inside of her. The whole ground is shaking. Emmett and Jake drop on the floor but manage to hold themselves and get up continuing the search on their way out. The Snow Queen is filled with anger and her anger becomes a rage when she realizes her victims are gone.

SQ: WHAT?! Who helped those two escape?!
Skua: But my Queen maybe...

The Queen slams the Skua filled with hatred and anger. Fire is coming from her eyes and she rushes back inside the main room. She grabs her snowglobe to see where her victims are but all she sees is darkness. Furiously she throws the globe away splattering it into a million pieces.

SQ: You'll have to pay for this Emmett. You escaped me and killed one of my servants. I'm going to get you and you will not be happy. Not this time. But before I put my poisoned arrows on you I will take revenge on all the cards and persons belonging to the Land of Hearts!

The Queen closes her eyes and grabs her spear. She says a few words and then she slams her spear into the ground. The whole sky turns dark and the clouds above Heart Kingdom are looking mean and harmful.

Eric: It looks like we are going to have a blizzard
Me: Look at the sky! It's complete black!
Rabbit: Darkness has come in and I start to have it cold

Nessa and Eric both look at the Rabbit. This was very unusual because the Rabbit was the only one who didn't feel the cold when they were at Snow Land.

Me: Rabbit...did you say you are getting cold?
Rabbit: Yes I am. Touch me and feel the cold
Me * touch Rabbit*: Awww...this is not good! Come here! I'll carry you and I will keep you warm

Nessa picks up the Rabbit and wraps him in a blanket and holds him close to her

Me: Eric, what is going on here?
Eric: I don't know love. I really don't know but this is not normal weather. It looks like this blizzard is trying to kill us

The storm has gone so bad Nesa and Eric have to hold the trees not to be blown away and Nessa refuses to leave the Rabbit. And not only they are taken in the mid of a Blizzard. Everybody walking around on Wonderland feels the heavy cold. Only the other three lands can see the storm pass.

SQ: My revenge is on you King and Queen of the Hearts! Your spell will no longer work for you. The Aces are now fully awake again and you are unprepared because you think you can enter these Lands oh so easily!

The Snow Queen laughs after what she has done to the Heart land and focuses herself on Emmett again.

SQ: I will get you and this time I won't keep you alive. You better hope I won't find you because if I do.........

The Queen calls her Snow Beasts pulling her sleigh

SQ: Come on my little darlings. I have work to do and if you will obey me I will have a little surprise for you. Come Skua... don't stay there. Come here with me

The Skua who had been slammed down by the Queen is still alive and flies to his Queen

"This is not good. Do you see those storm clouds?" Alice asked, pointing.
Peter turned and looked. "I see them; they're coming on pretty fast."
Alice turned pale. "The birds are coming back, we'd better get away from the cliff."
"What?" Caspian said.
"Just come on!"replied Alice as she turned aand started run. She was afraid.
Peter and Caspian followed her, a bit reluctantly, but they knew that she was right. They couldn't risk getting knocked over the edge of a cliff.
 
The chamber of the snowglobe, so lately occupied by the Snow Queen, suddenly has new occupants, as Emmett and Jake blunder in while searching for an exit.

"Lookit that, Emmett! She got one o' them fortuneteller crystal balls! That must be how she spies on folks! Here, lemme see if I can spy a way outta here--"

But Emmett grabs his brother's arm, halting him. "Wait, Jake! That thing might be like them palantirs the hobbits talks about. It could put a spell on you if you try to use it. Our best move's to make it so SHE can't use it never again!"

Seeing a pair of battleaxes on display on one wall, Emmett tries one for heft and solidity. Satisfied, he comes only as near to the snowglobe's stand as necessary, heaves up his axe, and brings it down, hard. The crystal shatters; for an instant the brothers seem to hear a dying voice groaning, "Rosebud..." And then all is still. Emmett wastes no time giving Jake instructions.

"Since we can't shoot no more, 'cept the few shells left for the scattergun, we need whatever weapons ARE available. Till somethin' better shows, you take that second axe. If we happen on any grub, take some of that too. And anything like a rug or blanket for survivin' the cold. We'll need them things even if we DO find our horses, and as it is I'm scared our poor cayuses got to BE grub for them hairy critters."

The brothers proceed with their escape attempt. No snow beasts disturb them; the few such creatures the Snow Queen still HAS alive are with her.
 
Something goes right for Emmett and Jake now: they stumble upon a kitchen, staffed by passive human servants. Even mentally enslaved captives have to eat; and there is a cookfire.

"This is a stickup!" Jake can't resist shouting. "Y'all do what you're told, and we won't hurt you! We need some grub--" He hastily corrects himself: "I don't mean baby beetles, I mean reg'lar food. And if you know what happened to our horses, tell us."

A middle-aged woman begins to answer: "I know something of your coming, strangers. No horses were brought here with you; they must have been left behind at the place where--"

But she gets no farther, as the toughest-looking of the male workers, clearly more mind-bound than the woman, shouts, "These men are not loyal to our Queen! Take them!"

Reluctant to expend the remaining shotgun shells, Emmett and Jake both poise their axes. "Don't try it," Emmett warns grimly. "The last bunch of dudes that tried to grab us got real dead, real fast." But the self-appointed leader, with a cleaver in one hand and a long skewer in the other, forces the issue, charging at Emmett. Emmett, leaning aside from a rapier-like lunge of the skewer, is forced to split the man's skull in half down to the neck. This gives the others second thoughts, but also leaves the axe firmly stuck in its victim; so Emmett scoops up the cleaver.

"Are there horses kept here?" he asks the woman.

She lowers her eyes. "That was my son," she murmurs.

"I'm sorry, ma'am, but you saw he didn't give me no choice. An' you know sure's I know, that it's the Snow Queen that's really to blame for this."

The woman looks up again. "We are given no means of transport outside of her direct control, even though most people here are unable even to think of wanting to escape. And an effort to leave on foot is perilous at best."

Jake interjects to his brother, "Hey, Emmett, you recollect how you an' Paden made a diversion when I was framed and you had to bust me outta that jail?"

Nodding in understanding without wasting words, Emmett says to the woman, "Are there other buildings nearby besides this castle or whatever it is?"

"There are, for various uses."

"Well, then," Emmett tells her, "you get these poor slave-types rounded up, gather some of what you need to stay alive, and get 'em all into another building...'cause THIS one's about to sort of accidentally catch on fire!"

Edmund and Hannah, look up to the sky

Why is it getting so dark?

me *weakley*: The birds, we need to leave, we need to find alice and the others.
edmund: You're sick though
Me: I know, give me the flute...i can't breate...
Hannah: I don't trust this flute, but it's supposed to help us, here you go.
me: *starts to play softly*
Edmund: right, play a new tune, that's not helping so much
Me: Changes tune
and it seems to work, but only for a short time
 
"what should we do?" Caspian asked.
"We still need to find a way down," Peter said. "But we can't travel so close to that cliff."
Alice was listening, but she was watching the clouds and the birds. "Those clouds are a lot faster than normal clouds," she said.
"That was what I was afraid of," Peter said. "There's evil magic afoot here."
Alice stood watching the clouds come closer and closer. Suddenly, she got an idea. " Retrace our steps!" she almost shouted.
"What?" said Caspian.
"We retrace our steps!" Alice replied.
"But we've done that already," Peter said.
"No, even further. Back to where that path ended! There was no cliff there."
Peter hesitated and then he said, "It's worth a try."
So they started to retrace their steps. But when they came to where there was no cliff, they found that they could go no further. The land just - stopped. There was nothing.
"Well," said Caspian, "a lot of good that did us."
Alice sighed. "I forgot, this is wonderland."
Peter gave her a funny look. "What does that mean?"
"I'll explain later; let's go back."
 
Suddenly, they are met by the Gryphon who helped Pippin before, and who has expressed indignation at the Heart rulers becoming aggressors. Addressing Alice, who knows him personally, he says, "I can't be gone long from the castle without rousing suspicion, but I can transport you people down to that cliff base if that's where you need to go."
 
Suddenly the door flies open and there she is...the Snow Queen. Rage is in her eyes and it looks like she could spit fire.

Emmett and Jake both are completely overwhelmed. They never expect this so soon. They already know about the skills of this evil Queen.

SQ: So you two think you can make it out of here and kill all of my servants? Well you are mistaken, the both of you. There is no way out of here for you anymore. I'm gonna destroy you!

While saying this the Queen throws her spear towards Jake and Emmett. The two men are lifted up in the air and fly through the kitchen. They both are smashed against the walls by something invisible.
Emmett and Jake are both very dizzy because of this huge smash when suddenly the older woman does something very brave. She grabs a wooden block and sets it on fire and sets the Snow Queen on fire.

Woman: Quick! Quick! Get out of here! I don't know where you are going but run as fast as you can!

Emmeet and Jake run away as quick as they can. Outside the kitchen they are greeted by a small boy. The boy introduces himself as the grandson of the lady.

Boy: I know where you have to go! I don't know if it will help you much but to go back to your own world you'll need the sleigh and I know where this sleigh is. Come and follow me!

The two men hestitate at first because they don't know if it is a trap but the screaming inside reminds them how evil the Queen is and how strong.

Boy: When you set the Queen on fire she will loose her powers for a short periode. Fire however doesn't kill her but it gives you enough time to get away from here and to find her sleigh.

After a while the boy shows the two men the place where the sleigh is waiting. The snow beasts are guards.

Boy: I know what you think but you can't kill them ....yet! You'll need them to get back into your own world and once you're back in your own world destroy them and destroy the sleigh. This will disable the Snow Queen from following you. Until she gets a new sleigh of course. Now do you two find a way to get into the sleigh without being attacked by those beasts? Once you're in the sleigh they will obey your orders but as soon as you get off they will see you are not their Queen
 
Toj keeps on playing
nothing happens

Me: What's wrong with this thing, doesn't anyone want to help us..
Edmund: What just happened, why is there a brick wall here?
Me: Cause this is WONDERLAND you idiot...o god if alice was here she would know what to do.
 
Ooc: A quick update. The Snow Queen noticed Emmett and jake are gone. She is furious and blames it on everybody even the King and Queen of hearts. When the King of hearts made a deal with her about getting Emmett and his brother jake the snow queen promised to give him the three lands of Clubs, Aces and Diamonds. The King only had to speak out a spell and the land he wanted to enter first would be fallen asleep so it would be an easy victory for the Haerts kingdom. But because the Snow Queen is in such rage the spell is UNDONE. The Hearts don't know this yet and the queen sent a heavy blizzard as her revenge to Wonderland. The other lands will not be affected by it that much but only those who live in the Heart land and all Heart cards
 
The Gryfon flew them safely to the ground at the foot of the cliff and they thanked him before he flew off again.
"Now," Alice said, straightening her skirt, "Let's go find the others."
 
As the Gryphon heads back from transporting Alice's party to the lower ground, he has to fight an increasingly fierce north wind.
 
Ooc: Joe! These are only ideas! You can still change it the Snow Queen reaches the sleigh as well. You are allowed to use the Snow Queen's character as well! If you want Emmett to talk with her you can always add a twist to this story. This is not a plan I made on forehand but it was just what popped up in my head and I would give it a try. But you are free to change the plans as well
 
Suddenly, a harsh wind whipped up out of nowhere.
"We need to keep moving," Alice said, looking over her shoulder, back up the cliff.
"Really? I hadn't noticed that," Caspian said.
Alice rolled her eyes and Peter groaned. Both had had enough of sarcasim for a long time.
"I'm being serious," replied Alice. "I know this country, and It's not NORMAL for a stom to just come out of nowhere like that."
"Are you sure?" Peter asked. "After all, this IS wonderland."
Alice sighed. "I'm sure! Now come on, or I'm going to leave you two here and go on myself!"
 
MGGT: As I once had occasion to tell Dayhawk, you can't lightly change "facts" already posted on a roleplay, or no one will know what's what. You have made it a fact that Emmett and Jake are to be helpless as mice against the Snow Queen, so let that be as you chose; but Someone else ISN'T helpless. We take up just after Emmett and Jake fled...
===============================


The Snow Queen was about to inflict some unspeakable violence on the brave woman who had thwarted her...when a thundering roar, which made the Snow Queen's deepest shout seem like a pitiful squeak, filled the room. The great God-Lion Aslan suddenly was there; He materialized already in motion, springing upon the evil sorceress and flattening her on the cold floor.

The Snow Queen's efforts to convince herself that she did not fear Aslan had worked up to this point; but now, pinned and unable to move, terror grasped her selfish heart. Aslan held one forepaw against her throat, His claws retracted; if He simply extended those claws, she would perish instantly.

"Foolish creature, foolish beyond the reckoning of stupidity," growled Aslan--ignoring the completely useless blows rained on Him by the Snow Queen's slaves. "The man Emmett, acting on My behalf, could have been your salvation; but all you cared about was your own pride and malice. Lie there, now, and do not dare to stir a muscle." Aslan stepped back...shook His mane...and suddenly, the servant woman's son was standing up, alive again. With him now appeared the maniacal Arthur, also alive again--and no longer looking crazed. Both resurrected men fell down to worship Aslan, as did the amazed mother.

Arthur then turned toward his former mistress and said, "By the way, evil one, it was not Emmett who killed me; I died by my own clumsy handling of that unfamiliar weapon. But I'm free of you now!"

Aslan turned to face the Snow Queen. "If I ever appear to you in a solid form again, it will be either to accept your unconditional surrender, or to slay you without mercy." Then He vanished, taking the middle-aged woman and the two resurrected men away to safety.
 
In a meantime the Hatter is having difficulties with the storm as well and so does the Heart Soldier. They are both freezing and Merry who is used to a bit of cold since carhadras (sp) is a bit worried.

Hatter: Somehow I feel I'm a bit weaker than usual. This is so weird
Heart Soldier: So do I. Even when I got hurt I didn't feel like this

At the other side of the other road the Rabbit is facing difficulties

Me: Eric, the Rabbit is getting cold. If this continues I'm afraid he will not make it for long
Eric: Let me see

Eric takes over the Rabbit and lies him on a blanket in the snow. He searches for some branches and makes a fire. He lies the rabbit close to the fire but not too close. He holds the Rabbit when he is a bit warmer and put him inside his thick coat.

Eric: Now he will stay warm for a while. We must hurry up if we want to reach the Clubs
Me: Pippin, are you still there?
Pippin: yes, I'm here right behind you

Pippin throws a snowball and Nessa throws a snowball back. Eric is worried about their little compagnon and suddenly he decides something else

Eric: We'll go to Fireman!
Me: Fireman?
Pippin: Fireman?
Me: But why?
Eric: Because he might be the only one to save our dear friend. The Rabbit has been on so many adventures with us and he has given us so much advice we just can't stay here and do nothing
Me: But what about the Clubs?
Eric: The Rabbit is more important at the moment. I'm sorry
Me: You are right
Eric: And besides...he knows the way. We'll need him anyways and I will rather die myself than watching our friend die. He is a part of Wonderland
Pippin: But why is he so sick suddenly?
Eric: He is not sick but he is freezing to death from the inside out
Me: From the inside out?
Eric: Yes because he feels warm but the cold seems to come from inside
Me: How on Earth is this possible?
Eric: It sounds like a spell
Pippin: The Snow Queen?

Nessa and Eric watch Pippin

Me: OMG.....don't tell me the Queen is behind this?
Eric: We don't know yet but I do know he needs help

Eric walks on when Nessa grabs his arm

Me: Eric wait..........if the Rabbit is freezing from the inside why aren't we freezing?
Eric: Maybe because we aren't characters from Wonderland?
Me: If this is happening to the Rabbit then what is happening to the Hatter right now?
Eric *gasps*: OMG...........that's right! The Hatter!!
