"Oh dear I hope not" he replied hanging his coat "you're perfect as is, I don't imagine going in one way or the other would make you any better."

As she did her best to clear away the...lab, or whatever it was...Sarah talked.
"Well, in any case, I'm back, and I am going to enjoy London before everything goes nuts again."
She straightened up, turning to look at him.
"What do you think?"
The only downside, that she could see, was that nobody seemed to know when the Jabberwock was supposed to appear. How the heck was she supposed to guard against it if she was so clueless about that?

"Sounds like a plan to me darling."

Smiling, she walked over and flopped down next to him.
"Great! I was thinking that tomorrow, we could start looking up tours and stuff. Maybe invite...oh my god. Jess! Did she know I was missing?"
In the rush to get back to the hotel, she'd forgotten the main reason why they were in London to begin with: Excalibur, and more importantly, the one who had identified it as the real thing.

"I- never told her."

Sarah paled.
"Oh god--she probably thinks I'm dead--"
She practically dove for the phone.

Jay stepped out of her way and watched as she dialed.

Jess was laying upside down on the couch staring out the large window of Stark Tower when she felt her phone buzz.
She reached for it lazily and answered "Hello?"

"Jess!" Sarah cried, and almost started tripping all over her own words to explain the situation. She took a deep breath.
"I'm so sorry I haven't called! Things got...really weird..."

Jess tumbled on to the floor "Sarah? Good Christ, where the hell have you been?"

She took a deep breath.
"Well, uh, I started morphing into the White Queen from Wonderland--that's what the white hair was about--and then finally I got teleported to Wonderland where they told me that I'm destined to fight the Jabberwock because I'm the wielder of the vorpal sword--that's Excalibur!--and I had to start training because the Jabberwock is going to attack London. The entire time the White Queen was here in England being weird to Jay until Jay somehow got teleported to Wonderland and we got to stay there for a while together before MORE magic happened and we got sent back to England and landed in Westminster Abbey and then I found out that my magical powers are gone."
Normally, she wouldn't have said any of this to anyone, but she knew that if anybody could understand insane adventures, it was Jess.

Jess paused for a moment "Doesn't sound too out of the ordinary."
She straightened herself up on the floor and pushed her hair out of her face "Okay you said you lost your powers? How? They're just gone?"
Jess tried to think about everything she knew about Alice in Wonderland and was coming up blank, one, because that movie scared the crap out of her as a kid and two, because she'd never read the book.

"God, I don't know how, but yes. It's the worst possible timing for that, too--I could really use it against the Jabberwock."

"Another question, do you have the sword?" Jess wracked her brain for information "Because for some reason I think that's the key" she pulled her laptop down to her and quickly google searched for the Jabberwock poem "Yea, here we are-" she mumbled off the first part of the poem then stopped "-One, two! One, two! And through and through. The vorpal blade went snicker-snack! He left it dead, and with its head. He went galumphing back."

"Oh, yeah. I think Excalibur's the vorpal sword. The Wonderland folks keep saying I was destined to this, and destined to wield it, and then all of a sudden I'm possible Queen of England because I'm destined to hold it? Too much of a coincidence and makes too much sense."
