"Yeah, tell me about it. Maybe it's mother nature's way of keeping us in check. But as for humans..." He gave a smirk. "It's almost like...they can judge all they want. We're still better than them."

At Kenzi's suggestion, Ty's grin got a little more insane as he turned the car onto a country back-road. A muddy country back-road. Pulling into a field, he followed her suggestion, doing donuts and just driving crazy. In the process, he slung mud all over the blue car. The redhead let out a cackle.

Suddenly, the car stopped, only spinning wheels. The car had gotten stuck in its own rut, and Ty couldn't help but laugh. "I shoulda known," he murmured with a laugh.

Ty nodded in agreement, eyes focused on the road, both in front and behind. "Yeah, you're right. Everyone has some sort of weakness. Something to keep them in check." The song changed, but Ty turned the station off, listening out for sirens.

He stayed silent as his mind wandered a bit, sort of lost in his own thoughts as those green-glove clad hands gripped the wheel. Ty kept driving, and city soon turned to countryside. "So...whatcha wanna do? I mean...we can return the car--ish. Or whatever. I just sorta like a set plan of sorts when I'm stealing cars." He flashed a nervous grin.

Ty didn't believe his sister couldn't die. What he did believe was that if Simon killed her, if not dead he would be very miserable. Because...well if just a little bit of Chloe's blood numbed his hand for an hour...

Clearing his mind, Ty crawled into the window and opened his note. As the post-cog read his note from Simon, a grin spread across his face. He'd called the other mutant's bluff. Taking off his glove, he let his mutation work on the note, and for the most part, Ty shook his head. Ty knew about Rupert's killing. Everything his hat had seen, he'd seen. He was only working with Rupert because he felt he had to. But now the psycho was...

...Maybe he was right. For the most part. "Leave it to a pre-cog to give a man who can't shoot a gun..." he grumbled as he took the pistol off of the shelf. Wrapped around the barrel of the gun was another note.

Rupert's note was easily spotted in the trunk, as Simon had intended.

Nice little old store, isn't it? I remember going here as a little boy, every Saturday just to look at all the cool junk. But your friend, Tyler has a different connection to this place.

Your Fishy little buddy was into urban exploration a couple years back, that's how he found this place. But Tyler has a couple of secrets. He's more than just some street kid, looking for his place in the world. He learned to steal to survive. Picking pockets, breaking and entering...

He's even got a few kills under his belt. Most of them to save girls, but...this? This place is where Tyler Fisher killed his own Daddy.

...I did not think of that. To save your friends from Wonderland...kill them there. I was thinking though, of all the 'escape' ideas: 'waking up'/drifting back to reality, dying, etc...the only way to leave and not come back is to die. Which of course could cause alot of drama here.

I mean think about it. Let's say someone tries to get a close friend out of Wonderland in this fashion, but it fails...That could cause some serious friction, even later down the road.

Now, I do love the idea of it ending, and different people think they did it, but no one really knows how it actually ended.

Okay, my ramblings are almost done, but I had one last idea that was mentioned earlier about the Queen of Hearts's favorite saying being "Off with [so and so's] head." There are 2 ways I see this character.

(1. She can be an NPC, who doesn't at all like the sudden flow of beings into her land, and thus wants to get rid of them. ALL of them.

(2. I'd mentioned characters who enter Wonderland favoring or looking like characters from the books/movies. With this, would come a part of that character's mindset. So if someone was the Queen...

I was thinking it'd be sort of a mixture. Any Alice book or movie based on it is fair game. This will lead to some variety.

I am loving the ideas put out, and I'd be on board with any of Mati's ideas. I know I'm sort of the one spear-heading this, alongside 'Rena, but I want this plot to be fun and unique. I don't want the whole 'been there, done that' feeling, and I love to see involvement.

I like the idea of people being transported to this "New York Wonderland" personally.

*snort* Maybe the "white Rabbit" mutant transporting people there is some psychopath who's targeting his own kind--though if any of our non-mutants want in, they can have gone by mistake--and the only way to end this is to kill the rabbit?

"...You gonna die!"
"If I had a nickel..." Ty muttered as he finished his climb up to the roof, brushing himself off and surveying his surroundings. Of course he'd been spotted, why wouldn't he? And now...he was in a mess. Hell, he and Roach just declared war on an entire gang! And by Ty and Roach, I mean just Ty. He pulled his jacket closer, feeling the bandanna--and for added bonus, the guy's wallet.

As the guy reached for his revolver, Ty picked up a loose brick and hurled it down onto the nearest gang member before turning and running. He knew he wouldn't get far, but that wasn't the goal.

Ty knew a thing or two about gangs, having lived on the streets of New York for a year or two. He just had to survey his surroundings. Leaping from rooftop to rooftop, he found another fire escape and shimmied up a taller building.

If there was one thing about gangs Ty knew, it was turf. But he was in the heart of this gang's territory...He pressed against a chimney, cursing under his breath and planning his next move. In a nutshell, he and his 'mentor' where royally screwed. And by that I mean Ty was royally screwed.

At first one or a few would know it's a dream, and they'd have to convince others, I think. Though I like the thought of having to stop it instead of merely trying to 'wake' the others.

I see Ty as either like a March-Hare type figure, or one of the playing cards. And Paige, I'll deviate from canon just a little. Putting my own little twist on it and making Paige a talking, 'animated' teacup that reanimates when broken.

EDIT: Okay so I had this image just now of someone entering this 'dream' the same way Alice did--falling down a rabbit hole. Also, those involved will retain these memories after it resolves--like one of those dreams that 'feel' real.

And if you die in Wonderland, you don't die in the real world. You simply wake up from the 'dream.' But be careful, because once you die in Wonderland, you can't go back.
