Snow Cecil found a large stick just as the White Rabbit, by saying 'On your side', confirmed that this [i]was[/i] another world, and followed that up with confirmation of an imminent threat. Said threat came from a strangely human-like and humanoid figure in an outlandish costume whose eyes were frightening and sparked a sense of danger in the boy. More importantly, this mysterious figure - an enemy? - gave hints that he and the White Rabbit used to be on the same side before the latter betrayed their common faction for some reason. [i]Maybe because said common faction was kidnapping kids; it's obvious this was where the P3 Syndrome were taken.[/i]

"Everyone!" the boy said as loudly and clearly as he could, "Follow the White Rabbit's advice - Run! Do not try and hold this guy off, do not try to reason with him, flee to the woods!" But even as he began to walk backward, seeking the cover of the woods, his mind could not stop analyzing. [i]There we go again, the black-haired and eyed woman who had surprised the White Rabbit seems to have a special status among these folk.[/i]

A decision was made; self-preservation had to be delayed. Snow sifted his stick to his left hand, and rushed over to Alice to grab her right wrist with his own right hand. He would then try and pull her back, hoping against hope that she would run with him, as he said, "Everyone, make sure this woman is safe! Don't ask why but she's important to these folk! Guard her with your lives!"

He kept pulling at Alice as he did so.
