And just like that, Lily was speeding off to where Alex was allegedly fighting the Wonderlanders.

[color=SpringGreen]“Let’s get after her,”[/color] Gaia instructed, even as their rainbow unicorns surged into motion. 

Thanks to being empowered by MDP’s hyperactive magic, the colorful steeds were easily swift enough to keep pace with Lily’s supercharged mystic motorcycle, and soon enough, they had reached the battle site. However, Alex was nowhere to be found.

[color=DarkOrchid]“O-Oh, g-gosh… W-Where could h-he have g-gone to?”[/color] Connie wondered, her mask forming a puzzled frown.

“I spy, with my little eye, Alexander in a field close by!” Mr. Kite sang out. “And we should probably get there before trouble starts,” he added with a considerably greater amount of urgency. “Because I [i]also[/i] spy the Queen of Hearts!”

[color=DarkOrchid]“T-T-The Q-Q-Queen of H-Hearts?!”[/color] Connie echoed, the eyes of her mask widening in horror.

[color=SpringGreen]“If that is indeed true, then we must proceed with extreme caution,”[/color] Gaia advised, her emerald lips forming a pensive frown. 

At Bolorton, the queen had withstood everything a small army of magical girls far more powerful than their current trio could dish out, so it was understandable that engaging her in combat now seemed like little more than suicide. However, their main objective was to rescue Alex. There was no reason to fight the Wonderland Sovereign if they could help it, merely keep her distracted long enough for their rescue to succeed, and they were fortunate enough to have a friendly army nearby to facilitate just such a distraction… 

[color=SpringGreen]“Chloe,”[/color] Gaia called out to their ally. [color=SpringGreen]“We’ve located Alex, but the Queen of Hearts is with him. Could you perhaps have your forces run interference while we rescue him?”[/color] the verdant maiden inquired.

Meanwhile, back at the Mad Hatter’s factory fortress, MDP was overjoyed to discover that she had succeeded in making even more new friends. Before the ditzy girl even realized what was happening, the entire white army had surrendered and its love-struck king had taken her hand.

[color=DeepPink]“Awww~! You’re, like, super [i]duper[/i] nicey wicey~! (giggle!)”[/color] the Princess of Dreams told the alabaster sovereign while giving it a curtsy. [color=DeepPink]“Magical Dream Princess had lots and lots of funsie wunsie playing this gamey wamey with you~!”[/color] she added happily, before her painfully limited attention was drawn to the smashed-open castle gates. [color=DeepPink]“Like, golly wolly!”[/color] she exclaimed, her eyes going wide in alarm as a realization struck her with the force of a cartoon mallet. [color=DeepPink]“Magical Dream Princess totally wotally forgot that she was playing hidey widey seeky weeky with some eggy weggies! She, like, totally wotally needs to finish winish, ‘cause it’s, like, super duper important wortant, even weven if she doesn’t remember wember exactly wactly why right nowie! Like, do you and your army warmy wanna helpy welpy her, Mister Wister Kingy Wingy~?!”[/color] she inquired of the white king and her new friends. [color=DeepPink]“Do you~?! Do you~?! Do you~?! You [i]do~?![/i]”[/color] she exclaimed when the king nodded its assent, the the playful princess jumping up and down in childish delight, a sparkly rainbow and several colorful fireworks forming between her spread arms. [color=DeepPink]“Yaaaay~! Come onsie wonsie, everybodywody~!”[/color] she instructed, pulling the white king along with one hand and Mister Hatty with the other, the white pieces forming up behind them. [color=DeepPink]“Like, we’ll findy windy those eggy weggies in no timey wimey at allsie wallsie~! (giggle!) And, like, we can even weven play another wother gamey wamey while we searchy wearchy for them~!”[/color] the whimsical girl added with a gleeful smile as she began bouncing around on an imaginary hopscotch court, her feet moving into an array of different patterns as she went. [color=DeepPink]“Onesie, twosie, threesie, foursie~!”[/color] she sang cheerfully. [color=DeepPink]“Skip right through that castle doorsie~! (giggle!)”[/color]
