Through the Looking Glass

[Deleted]

"The ears. They suit you. " Chamistala smiled happily and flaunted her tail, laughing quietly when the girl that complemented her said the opposite about her new friend that had mimicked her ears and tail, purring as he scratched her behind the ears.

“Oh, come on. Haven’t any of you read Alice in Wonderland? It’s very obvious, and I admit that the mirror was a nice touch,” he said, and Chamistala perked her ears. Up til now, he is the only one that actually supplied something worth while. “Now, what would be a good question is how we managed to get caught in a children’s novel, or why the Looking Glass mirror appeared to us.”

Chamistala shrugged at that. She had no clue, and at the moment, she didn't see how it would really help...but mostly she just wanted more pets. Her friend walked off and, while the others continued to talk, she followed him, a distance behind. She reached a warm spot in the sunny field and rolled head first into it, lolling about only barely paying attention to the others until the girl that came after her raised her voice, angry. Chamistala stretched herself up and stalked slowly back towards the group. she waited til Ace had finished talking and she hunkered down, watching the man pacing nervously. She knew he was trying to make something up. "Don't lie to us..and don't dart around this. Who are you? A professor of what? And how does K-9 know you?" She growled viciously and met the man's eyes, letting the man know that she had no problem in ripping him into shreds if he gave them any problems at all. She lifted her eyebrows and cocked her head. "Well? Get to explaining!" It had been a long day, there were Daleks on the way, and she didn;t want anymore problems...no matter how handsome that problem seemed to be.

Aixa shrugged as the girl – Ace, she said later – told him they looked better on the cat-girl. “I’m cuter as a cow,” he admitted, replacing the cat ears with those from a cow. Oliver liked his cow ears well enough anyway. He continued petting behind the cat-girl’s ears, listening to her purr curiously. He had never been one to pet cats a lot – he just preferred to look at their adorableness from a distance. Still, the noise she was making was utterly fascinating to the Djinn. That was, of course, until she snickered over Ace’s comment about being cuter. His hand left her ear and he put his hands on his hips, arching an eyebrow at her as he stepped away.

“I remember reading that, a long, long time ago,” the woman named Ace said in response to his question. “I haven’t the foggiest, I was just trying to get off my shuttle before it filled up with smoke, when I opened the door instead of outside there was a mirror featuring this place.” Aixa nodded and looked around at the others to see if they were going to share. The Time Lord – Professor John Smith, he’d said – nodded and the cat-girl shrugged. Talkative bunch, weren’t they? He sighed and pointed out that they had nearly nothing in common save for the fact they were all sentient creatures.

But even that wasn’t much – how could they know that the mirror hadn’t pulled other things inside? Nothing was random, Aixa knew. Everything had a system, no matter how convoluted it appeared.

“Woah, woah, woah wait a second, rewind.”[/b][/i] Aixa stared at her, and repeated what he’d said, only this time very slowly. “Timelord?”[/b][/i] Whoops. Had the Time Lord been hiding from this human? Aixa wondered if he should backpedal, but instead his eyes guiltily went to the professor’s. “John Smith isn’t your real name is it?”[/b][/i]

Whoops! “Uh…sorry?”

“Well… No, sorry. Technically I didn’t lie to you. You used to call me Professor.”[/b][/i]

Aixa raised his eyebrow, and then rolled his eyes as the catgirl decided to take action and threaten the man. “Stop being so ridiculous, all of you. It doesn’t matter who the Time Lord is, it doesn’t who either of you humans are, it doesn’t matter who the mechanical dog is, and it doesn’t matter who I am,” he said coldly. “Whether or not he lied to you about his identity is irrelevant. The only thing that matters is what we have in common and how we can get out of here. I’ve got a date tonight, so if you don’t mind.”

“Now, we all know that we came here from a mirror. There are two options that I see,” Aixa continued thoughtfully. “The man who wrote the series may have discovered the mirror as well. Or the world is mimicking him. If it’s the former, then we know there’s a way out,” Aixa pointed out, looking up at the sky. “If it’s the latter… I’d be very interested to know whether this is the only story the world mimics.”[/size]

[Ace McShane]

[OOC: sorry about the short length.]

Ace choked down her temper when she figured out the guy was The Doctor, Aixa was right it didn’t matter what mattered was them getting out of there as quickly as possible. She moved off to the side a little still listening to them, as well as looking around the area a little.

“The man who wrote the series may have discovered the mirror as well. Or the world is mimicking him. If it’s the former, then we know there’s a way out,” Aixa pointed out, looking up at the sky. “If it’s the latter… I’d be very interested to know whether this is the only story the world mimics.”

Ace turned sill listening to Aixa “Well, either way we won’t find any answers standing here may I suggest we find some cover and we could work on those questions there.” she asked this mostly because when she was scanning the area she thought she saw some clouds that looked like they could be about ready to release their contents and where heading the groups way.
