Alice heard the sound of the door opening and struggled against the ropes. What if Olivia was back for more? What if she had brought Ivana with her as a captive? What if….she sighed. Yeah, right. Her male self had disappeared mysteriously, which was why she had to go to the meeting. Somebody had to represent England, and who better than his female counterpart?
Dammit, why did you have to disappear in the first place? She lowered her head and let the tears fall; nobody was here to watch her cry, after all.
Suddenly, she heard a familiar voice. "Alice? Is that you? I thought I heard you crying."

"Arthur?"
"Alice, where are you? I can't see properly…."
"Arthur?"
"Yes?"
"Are you…." Alice squinted. He was tied up, just like her. His eyes looked glassy. Not a good sign. "Arthur. Is my hair up or down?" Please, say down, please say down….
"I don't know. I can't…."
"….see, yeah." Alice gulped. Come to think of it, her vision was worse than ever….what did Olivia do to her?
China entered the room completely. "I think that she is down there," he muttered, pointing at a set of stairs leading downward.
