"Dispelling psychotic emotions" and "help" cross her mind as if that was all she could hear. The maiden clenched her fists but started to laughed like it was a mere joke. "Oh, I see what this is", she said. Her tone was laced with anger. "You all think you can save me, but you all are dead wrong", the maiden in red added. She began laughing again, and it seemed like her anger was dissolved.

"Now, I know I am not in Wonderland", the maiden spoke. "I figured that out by the second card guard I tried to kill." She looked around at the group. The maiden explained about Wonderland, how it was a parasitic dream, and that the other Alices met a tragic fate.*

(*Context: The maiden in red comes from a song called Alice of Human Sacrifice. In the song, Wonderland is a parasitic dream-like entity.)

(( Haven't heard of that, but I think it's somewhat similar to the Alice in Wonderland games that has a darker setting to it...at least that's what I'm basing this on... Regardless I have very little knowledge of the subject. ))

Jonathan was able to observe the Maiden of Red's behavior...to become somewhat calm...? Upon her explanation, it appears that she was mistaken about where she's at which therefore is likely the cause of her aggression with the group...it was all more or less a misunderstanding... Believing that Jonathan has no other choice, judging by the situation at hand, he dispelled his channeling completely; normally he can hold onto a magical channeling if certain situations are needed, such as needing to move to a different location to avoid a perilous outcome, but it also does trickle the magical power away which would eat up valuable time to regain what was lost once he resume channeling again...hence he would rather avoid such a situation from happening...

"Yeah, I don't think this world is anything but we all would believe it is... It's a mysterious closed world that we're all taken in against our own wills in order to make us suffer...and ultimately kill us in the end... In any case though it looks like this was all a misunderstanding on both sides...we really thought you were out to get us despite this being the first time we confront with each other... We can all stand down, and now that we've found everyone new that came to this world, we can resume going to that underground shelter to see if we can get it open...if any and everyone all agrees to my proposal... Otherwise, I suppose we can go back to our base camp at the hospital again...Sirius was the only one who's currently there at the moment...

(( Indeed, it is quite a dark song. ))

"Just like Wonderland", the maiden in red commented. She stifled a dry laugh at Jonathan's claims of her attacking them was nothing but a mere misunderstanding. How hopeful is this group? It kills me. The maiden wore a sinster smile on her face.

"Well, I suppose I can spare you all for now." The maiden looked at Jonathan as he explained about a plan to go a base camp and someone called Sirius.

Jalie frowns at her comment and enters the Maiden's mind again, though she doesn't do anything this time. She just watches and reads her thoughts.

"I'm okay with either. It might be best if some of us go back to the hospital and the others go to the underground shelter."

Sirius awoke and stretched. It was the best sleep he had in awhile. “Are they still not back. That is worrisome.”

(My sister ended up in the hospital so I wasn’t able to focus on replies. I apologize)

( shit sorry i kinda forgot about this lol ) * max was walking up and down the street still vary confused but aware of his seroundings * max: this is fine its like tom hanks in cast away l-lost and alone * he did a nervous chuckle to himself as he didnt think anyone would come and help him * *

Camry spots Max as he walks down the empty street. He approaches him cautiously. "Hey, are you alright?"

* he wasent sure at first who this lady was approaching him so he stood up puffed out his chest * max: ma’am stop first can you tell me we’re I am and who you are * he said as he wasent usually the person to say those kinda things

((Camry is actually a boy lol, he's not my character, I'm just playing him for someone else currently. Sorry, I should have specified.))

Camry stops and "I'm Camry, and you're in.. well, we're all in some sort of alternate dream dimension. We were all transported here in our sleep, and we're working together to try and leave this place."

He sat next to Jalie and looked up at her and wagged his tail a bit. He then looked at Max and went and sniffed him a bit before looking at Max and wagging his tail.

( ah ok got ya my bad lol ) max: well then I guess we’re on the same page camry * he said easing himself knowing you weren’t a threat till then Thor came up to him and sniffed him and wagged his tail and max then kneels down to pet them * max: hehe well hay there boy * he said with a happy smile making max relaxed somewhat

"Well then, I think I'll go catch up to Camry. He's found that other person it seems." Jalie leaves the group and walks down the street where Camry and Max are, with Thor following next to her. She stops by Camry and gives Max a small smile. "Hello, I'm Jalie."

Camry nods at Jalie as she approaches. He seems safe. He thinks to Jalie.

Jalie's ears twitch a little. "Alright then." She responds to Camry before speaking out loud. "Would you like to come back with us to our base? It'd be safer for you than being on your own." She offers to Max.

Max: well it’s a pleasure to meet you jaile I’m max and thanks I thought I was going to be wondering around this place all by my self where is this place of yours

Thor started licking Max's face as he wagged his tail. He placed a paw on Max as he kept licking Max's face before herding him over to the group.

* Max would start to chuckle at Thor licking his face and trying to jump on him to keep licking Max as he moved to where their group was * Max: hehe well you one hell of a dog * he said with a joyful smile petting thor more *

(( Ah, sorry I haven't been responding much here...but it doesn't look like much has happened for me to catch up on... ))

With things calming down, and with Jalie's recommendation of splitting up to either go to the underground shelter or hospital...

"Well...I'll leave that up to everyone... If anyone is willing to go back to the hospital is fine, but I'm planning on continuing to the underground shelter to see if I can get that door open." said Jonathan

Jonathan would once again get his magic super long bobsled going again as he would head on over to the underground shelter with people in tow who is willing to come along.

"No. We stay together just in case someone gets lost. That way, we can all watch each other's backs" The former Robin said flatly.

“They are taking a long time. Perhaps I shall search for them. I don’t like being this defenseless.” Sirius stood, he wondered to the doors of the hospital and crossed. He felt queasy and spewed some black substance. Sirius leaned over holding his stomach.

((I think that would be okay, Astrobeans.))

"We're currently using a hospital they found." She says to Max. "Although, it sounds like we might not be going back just yet. Jonathan wants to go check out that underground shelter he found, and ...Red Hood thinks we should stay together." Jalie gives a slight shrug. "I guess we're all going with Jonathan then.." She pauses for a moment. Her thoughts wander to the hospital, then to Sirius, who they had left there. "If that's the case, then I should let Sirius know what's going on."

Jalie reaches out mentally and eases herself into Sirius's mind. "Hey Sirius, it's Jalie. We found a few new people, and Jonathan wants to go check out an underground shelter he found earlier. I guess we might take longer than expected, sorry about that." She says in his mind.

max: whoa so your like telipathic then and man i guess i need a full tour then huh * he said with a slight chuckle as he wanted to try and bring the mood up a little * max: um if anything i could help out with stuff like that bunker you all mentiond
