Walter was not alone, he'd notice that soon, as Break passed by down below in a shadow of brownian motion from the tendrils an tails of Mad Hatters hat. The giant monster of a Chain was taking out any and all that crossed its path. There was no need to worry about the innocent being harmed, as there was never any innocent out and about in the darkness... And if there was? They were dead the moment Hatter passed them.

Break may not have been able to see, he may not have been able to even hear properly, but his Chain could, and Break, at this moment had given into temptation, let his Chain go wild and see where the pull that was tugging him took him too. Sure, it would hurt him afterwards, like any time he used his Chain, break suffered, but he was sure it would be worth it . . . And after all there was no such thing as permanent death here, Break had experienced that first hand the moment he'd arrived here.

As the Chain and its contractor passed under sight of Walter, the Hatter roared and pulled Break to a stop. That huge bloodshot eye slowly turned its attention towards Walter. There was something about the boy that didn't seem human in the eye of that Chain, and if it wasn't human? did that mean Walter was a thing of the darkness too?

"What is it, Hatter? Why have we stopped?"

[break_xerxes]

The smell of smoke hit Break's nose first, the words followed after, but thet were still so faint in his failing hearing so really, had Walter been silent and Hatter never been curious, Break would have had no idea the young seeming male was there. As it was, it was indeed the smoke that drew Break's attention.

"Raven? "

He called, assuming it was Gilbert even though Hatter did not confirm this, though that chain and himself had seemed a little out of synch for a good long while now . . . since after his second death here and all.

There was no rush for a fight, Hatter had not attempted to attack the boy yet, he was simply stressing to his contractor or the other males presence, though to come face to face with such a chain as Mad Hatter was possibly not the best way to reassure you that you were safe.

[break_xerxes]

The hat like being loomed over the one calling out towards Walter, though as close as it got, the being standing below seemed to have at least enough control over the Chain so that it didn't attack. Raven was no on of any importance, or so Break would tell you that much, but he did have a habit of smoking and the dark hair of course.

This Raven was nothing like the poem, other than having the odd random quoth at Break for this and that, he was more of a peace keeper then and annoyance.

" Ah la,la~ indeed you are not, you're just a little black bird~ what are you doing up there so high, all the worms for the picking are down here~." Break smirked and squinted to see as best as he could up in Walters direction.

[break_xerxes]

Break didn't think anything of him, other than there must be one of three things wrong with him; One) he was a monster, Two) he was insane to be out at night, or Three) he was new here and lost?

"You're hungry? Well I hate to be the one to break this to you, but out at night you're not the one looking for a snack ... those things are~" Pointing his cane up towards the Icarus wings that scattered the night sky.

"Hm? Oh Hatter? don't mind him, he woke up on the wrong side of the bed~ and besides ..... he's already ate."

[break_xerxes]

Remarkably different or not, Break still was troubled that he had what could otherwise be classed as a witness to his late night destruction session. He was going the have to be sure Walter wasn't going to tittle tattle on him and tell Gilbert or Vincent exactly what he saw. If worse thing came to the worse, Hatter would probably like to eat the little bird.

"Not at all~ it would take a lot more to appease Mad Hatter my boy, why not jump down from there and show me your face? predators normally attack from above, you're going to make an old man nervous~" His tone was joking of course but he did however wish to see Walters face.

Chuckling as he was called a little white bird, Break had been called many things in his time, but never that.

[break_xerxes]

Oh if Break had been meaning to mock the young man, he would have come up with far worse than calling him 'Black Bird' really, Walter was getting off rather easy to say the least.

"Yes, Jump." Break copied with just as much stoic in his tone as the raven haired male. The male that didn't quite smell like the monsters Break had encountered here so far, perhaps he really was just a new comer out at the wrong time? There was no need to fight, not yet anyway's ... Break might have been blind and struggling to control his chain, but Hatter was not a chain like Bandersnatch, he wouldn't eat just for the sake of it and without command.

The name was oh so fitting once you got to know the chain and its contractor.

"Here~ " He chuckled, throwing his arms out with a slight swoon. " I used to be a fireman~ this kind of rescue was common." All lies of course.

[break_xerxes]

"No, it was the flames that put me off, I've never really been all that fond of such extreme heat."

Giving a hand wave as if he was talking to an old friend.

Break took a step back to watch as the stranger came leaping down, he was either mad or didn't care ... or both options. Break took a look around, he was actually watching to see if there was anyone of those horrid monsters around, but if anyone asked, he'd say he was looking for a chance to attack the young strange man.

"My~ aren't you a sprite young thing." Smirking, twirling his umbrella over a shoulder as his chain fluttered behind him, protecting him of course.
