Oh, wow. More craziness in Wonderland. What else could happen in this place. Dante had fallen and landed in a waterbed like floor, knowing not of what it was. The damn lucky bear and its stupid umbrella. Dante stood up and rubbed his bottom, remembering how he had gotten here. He sighed, looking around and seeing nothing except a cross dressing male and the guy that shrunk himself. This was indeed, abnormal.
Where are you now? This is a weird area to be in, especially for you, Dante. Dante growled as he began to speak with Madam in his head. You know, you could stop talking to me any time. Besides, I don't think anyone knows where we are, unless that bear knows something.

(OOC: Just for clarity, Dante, when Kassom drank the potion he didn't actually shrink. Instead, the room grew, leaving everyone's characters (except Northie's Iris' talking bear) comparatively the same size. Confusing yes, I know.
GRAPE SMELL! XD)
Magic salt... magic freakin' salt...
The furry rogue muttered angrily to himself as he attempted, and ultimately failed, to stand upright. At least this time he'd had the good fortune of landing on something halfway soft... though he had an ominous suspicion the stuff currently passing for ground wasn't exactly safe. Either way, the ever-shifting globular terrain was about as tricky to stand on as saran-wrapped quicksand; Kassom fell back onto his bum and continued to mutter for a bit... then shouted out loud.
"WHAT NOW?!"

((I AM NOT NORTHIE!))
The bear rolled around in the dark. Well, once he'd landed and folded his umbrella.
"Daaark.." he called, just rolling. Roll, roll..*click*
And everyone went blind....for a few moments. Bright white light exploded from a hanging tree, making everything wash out until eyes could adjust. Grape smell still present, once the colors started to fade back in it was clear that something was amiss. More amiss than the average.
The forest with the appropriate trail, the trees and bushes and talking flowers....they were all on the ceiling. Ceiling being relative, seeing as how it was actually the floor they were supposed to be standing on. Apparently the "sky" of Wonderland had been a bladder of questionable fluids all along... It was a bear to stand on, if you pardon the pun.
The lights dimmed a good deal, leaving them in a dusky atmosphere devoid of an actual source of illumination.
"BERNIIIIIIICE!!!" The bear squawled, trying to jump to the ceiling/ floor. The echo chased something out of the trees...plainly it was the darkest of shadows with glowing orange eyes. It glared up, er, DOWN at them through the darkened trees, but it seemed it couldn't reach them. A faint scream could be heard from somewhere as the long dark creature clattered off back into hiding.
Polka dots covered the unsteady stomping grounds they stood upon. Some were sticky, some where not, and they were of all shapes and sizes.
What were their function?
"How do we get off of thiiiis?! Help me, friends!!!"

(OOC: Gah! Sorry Iris... I was somewhat on autopilot for that post. *bows and begs forgiveness*)
The world was upside-down. There was something, maybe a Heartless, hiding in the bushes. Someone had screamed, and it wasn't girly-man. And there was grape smell. What was up with the freakin' grape smell?!
He'd have to figure that out later -- if that scream was Bernice, it was likely that their ticket off this crazy world was running for her life from Heartless. NOT. GOOD. Kassom looked around in a panic. There had to be some way to get up -- er, down -- there!
And if there wasn't... well, he could always make one.
'Boss, I'm gonna need your help.'
<<All over it, kid.>>
The young rogue's eyes suddenly drained of color as what looked like droplets of liquid mercury began to emerge from under his fur and clothes. These droplets of liquid metal quickly pooled at his feet; Kassom, or rather now Ilaelis, reached down into the puddle and pulled something solid from it: a long, thin chain... apparently made from the puddle itself.
"Stand back kiddies," An altered, metal-sounding version of Kassom's voice instructed as he began to swing the chain. With a good throw and a little metal manipulation, this had a pretty good chance of working. "Time to bridge heaven and earth... with a little heavy metal!"
With one last tremendous swing he let the chain loose, sending it sailing up -- er, down -- towards one of the bigger, sturdier looking plants. All it had to do was hit; the head of the chain would re-liquefy and grab onto the surface with the same tenacity as quick-drying cement or European ivy, molding itself into the porous surface and thereby holding on. It would work... in theory, at least.
If they were going to catch up with the shadows and Bernice, this was their best shot.
. . . What was with the freaky grape smell?!
(OOC: Outcome's in your hands of course, Iris. Do as you see fit, what with Wonderland physics and whatnot.)

((X3 -chuckles-))
"What a BRILLIANT idea!!" The bear cried, dancing around as if all had been solved. It was a wondrous thing how so much noise could come from something with no mouth..well, not a functioning one. "Crawling down...Bernice is saved!!"
However, Kassom would notice that as he climbed "down", the gravity didn't seem to change to allow him to set foot on the actual ground and chase after the shadow being.
Perhaps there was a trigger...
The bear wailed.
((yeah, it's short...but no one else posted. =.= ))

"Aw man! Please, Bear person, stop crying. One, it's annoying. Two, your Bernice is going to be rescued soon, K," The bored warrior attempted to explain to the giant bear. He was fiddling with a piece of jet black hair, tapping it lightly as it hung in his eyes. Dante wasn't too enthusiastic about finding this Bernice person, but anything would be better than listening to the wailing of that possesed stuffed animal. Being stuck in Wonderland with an animal person and a cross dresser wasn't all too pleasing either. Dante especially wanted to stay a safe distance from the cross dresser, hoping with his young life that the guy wasn't homosexual.
With a swift movement, the cleaver the young man held was used as a crutch-like object, allowing Dante to let most of his weight sit on the hunk of steel. It was stabbed into the ground pretty far, leaving a deep mark into the floor... or ceiling, which ever it was. "Hey, buddy. What's the next idea?" This was directed towards the animal man, hoping that he had an idea. Dante looked up, which was technically down, and saw a dog's head, or a lion head, staring up at him. It made him uncomfortable.

Meanwhile the dude in the dress was ignoring all of the others, instead amusing himself by jumping from one sticky spot to one non-sticky one over and over and laughing at how hard it was to jump off of the sticky one.

"Grrr..." It was Kassom who spoke now, utterly irritated at Wonderland's utterly inconvenient and utterly irritating sense of utterly inane physics. Utterly!
"This stupid world is about thirteen flavors of messed the **** up!!" He shouted, descending the chain. He looked at Dante. "It's like it's listening for every plan I make, then comes up with some twisted way to throw it back in my face! AURGH!" He seemed about ready to tear his hair out.
<<Calm down, kid.>> Ilaelis chimed in, speaking straight to the young lynx's mind. <<If we're going to get anywhere we've got to figure out how this world work, then play by it's rules. That's the only way I can see us getting out of here.>>
Kassom sighed, long and deep. His dignity and self-respect had been offended by this world more times already than he cared to think about... he sure as heck didn't want to end up stuck here! With that in mind he returned his chain to liquid metal, stashed it away, and walked over to the bear.
"Okay... apparently my way isn't working very well." He was obviously doing his best to be calm and understanding, though his irritation bled through a bit. "Mister bear... what can you tell me about this place? What do you know about how this world works?"
He threw on a fake smile for effect. "Anything at all. Remember... it's to help Bernice."

"Hey everyone!" the silver-haired man yelled out. He was now down on his back on one of the spots, as if making a snow angel. "Find a sticky spot and lie down!"
Had he discovered the secret to moving forward!?
"Then we can put our backs together and see if we still stick!"
No, no he hadn't.

Yet, the strange cross-dresser was utterly close, even if he didn't know it.
The bear coward away from Kassom as he neared, the anger radiating from him nearly singing the fragile cloth it was made from. The umbrella opened with a FLOOF, blocking out Kassom with a rainbow of color.
Chaosin would notice that upon sticking to the spots, the grape smell was much much stronger to the nose... and the sticky was actually a sugar-y kind of stick.

"Hey, wait a minute," he suddenly said, nose wrinkling. The Nobodoy was still lying down on a large sticky polka dot he'd found, but now on his side, looking down at the thing with interest.
Then he leaned down and stuck his tongue on it.

Kassom sighed, a long deep sound that was just as much born of frustration as it was despair. The bear was like a small child... and children can always tell when someone's angry, faux smile or not. This was getting nowhere...
"Fine... ya know what?" He turned around, groaning as he cradled the throbbing headache pounding away at his skull. "I'm done. Finished. You guys are on your own -- I'll find my own way out of this... this madhouse!"
As he turned and walked away from the bear, he had the misfortune to step into one of the sticky spots. Kassom huffed in irritation, finding it particularly difficult to loose the sole of his shoe from the grape-scented nectar. He grunted, trying to leverage his body against the adhesive fluids, and at length pried free his foot -- only to realize he'd gotten the other one stuck in the meantime
And that's when it hit him!
"No... no way... THAT'S IT!!"
A wild grin washed over his previously despondent expression, and he turned his gaze back to the bear. Without further ado he prepared another metal chain, sending it flying upwards to anchor on a tree. The lynx then stomped his feet on the sticky spot until his shoes were good and sticky... then he started climbing. Reaching the top, he flipped vertical and planted his feet on the ceiling-ground.
"Guys, follow my lead! We'll find that Bernice yet!"

Dante clapped, a smile appearing on his face. "Well, well, well. You found a way out. Congratulations, my friend. You deserve a cookie." With that said, the young warrior stepped into one of the spots, taking his finger to bring some of the goo to his tongue. "Bleh! It smells like grape, but it sure doesn't taste like it! It tastes like... Wet dog that's been wrapped in leathery, burnt bacon!" Yeah, it didn't taste all that pleasing. Without further taste testing, Dante replaced his cleaver and grabbed the chain, using it as support while walking on the walls.
"Heh, I'm walking on walls like a spider! This is sweet!" This amused the Ex-Apprentice to the highest degree. He had never done this before and it was funner with people than being alone. With people, you could show off your sweet moves.

While Kassom's approach was...interesting, it was possibly incorrect. He may have been standing on the ground below, but the sticky goo was starting to give in to gravity, meaning feet left solid ground, though hung on to the syrup-y mess as it slowly expanded into gloopy strings...
The other two had the right idea. When you spell grape, why not taste it?! No one said it'd taste good... A mysterious bell sounded somewhere, and just as the taste sunk into the tongues, the dots started to glow, then FLIP! Suddenly right-side-up was indeed right-side up! Gravity reversed, pulling Kassom the shot distance to the ground. The dots in the correct ceiling disappeared, leaving the two to drop out of the sky to meed Kassom below.
The bear was no where to be found, but his umbrella was in the dirt nearby.

"WHOOOOAAAAAAA!" Crash!
"Oh man, that would have hurt," Chaosin said, sounding kind of disappointed. He looked down below his pink and dotted dress and scowled that the person beneath him. "Why'd you have to go and break my fall, huh!?"
Poor Kassom. Maybe if he hadn't stickified his shoes he would have moved away in time...
"Huh? Where'd the little Buttons guy go?"
