It seemed that the encouraging words she spoke to Penny were what the group really needed in that moment, as Alicia found her outspoken rejection of the Mad Hatter's game prompted pretty much everyone else to go along with it as well. Aside from Lily, who prepared to leave in order to find Alex. That was the other reason they were here after all so it was good that they were getting to it.

Of course she did notice that something was a bit off with Penny, though there wasn't the time to really focus on it in the heat of the moment. Perhaps some small part of her had expected her friend to be able to handle breaching that wall without Rachel needing to get involved in the first place.

Readying her bow for the battle to come, Alicia joined the others in heading for the entrance that had been knocked into the wall. [color=aba000]"Keep moving,"[/color] she advised everyone. [color=aba000]"We can't afford to get bogged down."[/color] They were on hostile ground in a very literal sense, and she didn't want to risk anything going wrong with their anti-Wonderland devices while they were in the middle of their plan.

She quickly set to work as the tea drones approached from above, joining in fending off the attackers as she fired spreads of arrows from her bow. This was the sort of environment that her Barrage power was made for, unleashing several arrows at once to either take down the drones entirely or make them release their heated tea contents in a manner safe for the fighters below. But true to her own warning she did not let this stop her entirely, keeping in motion where possible as bright wings added to her ability to dodge.

[color=aba000]"Don't forget about the eggs,"[/color] she added as she ran along towards the facility that waited ahead of them. [color=aba000]"They're the reason we're here. We destroy them and the Queen may end up killing off the Mad Hatter for us."[/color] Considering the theme of this place, it was not an impossible outcome if things worked out in their favor. For now though, it was time to focus and do what they did best save the day.
