Dragon Warriors
in
Wonderland
It was a sunny day as butterflies flew happily through the meadow and a couple of swans were together in a lake. The Warriors was lazing around as Beardesly was sitting and reading a history book, not noticing that Prim was paying attention to her.
"...'Leaders, and had been of late, much accustomed to usurpation and conquest. Edwin and Mocar, the Earls of Mercia and Northumbria, declared for him: and even Stigand-'..." Beardesly found himself pausing as Prim's foot came down from the tree branch it was over top of. "Prim!" he then continued to read.
Prim was making daisy flower necklaces in the tree with Smoke.
"Oh, I'm listening." Prim said, still lost in daydream land as she had fun while Beardesly read to her.
Beardesly cleared his throat and went to continue reading the book. "And even Stigand, the archbishop of Canterbury, agreed to meet with William and offer him the crown. William's conduct was at first moderate'-"
Prim giggled as the daisies fell onto Beardesly after Smoke shook the daisies off his head when Prim put it there.
"Prim, will you kindly pay attention to your history lesson?" Beardesly scolded her.
"I'm sorry." Prim said, leaning back on the branch and staring into space. "But how can anyone possibly pay attention to a good book with no pictures in it.
"My dear child, there are many good books in this world without pictures."
"In your world perhaps, but in my world, the books would be nothing, but pictures."
"Your world?" Connor wondered.
Beardesly laughed. "What nonsense."
"Nonsense?" Prim glanced at him, then looked to the dragon as Beardesly sat back down to read. "That's it smoke! If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense."
Smoke nodded in agreement.
"Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't" Prim explained.
Smoke sounded confused.
"And in the opposite way, what it is, it wouldn't be, and what it wouldn't be, it would you see?" Prim continued to explain.
Smoke snorted in confusion.
"In my world, you wouldn't say 'roar'." Prim said, climbing down from the tree as Beardelsy and the others followed her.
Smoke snorted again.
"Oh, but you would." Prim continued. "You'd be just like people, Smoke, and all the other animals too."
"Why, in my world..." Prim laid down in the field, looking at the daisies with the Warriors.
Prim: Cats and rabbits
Would reside in fancy little houses
And be dressed in shoes and hats and trousers
In a world of my own
All the flowers
Would have extra, special powers
They would sit and talk to me for hours
When I'm lonely in a world of my own
A blue bird chirped and sat in a tree, coming in their view.
Prim: There'd be new birds
Lots of nice and friendly howdy-do birds
Everyone would have a dozen blue birds
Within that world of my own
I could listen to a babbling brook
And hear a song that I could understand
I keep wishing it could be that way
Because my world would be a wonderland.
Prim closed her eyes near the river as the water rippled and a new reflection came. There was a white rabbit in a red waist coat with gray pants, a black umbrella, and tiny glasses on its face. The dragons saw it and started to growl loudly to alert the Warriors.
"Oh, Smoke..." Prim rubber her eyes with a smile. "It's just a white rabbit in a...
"Waistcoat! And watch!" said Beardesly as the Warriors noticed the rabbit.
"Oh my fur and whiskers!" the white rabbit had a look of shock on his face as he looked at his watch and started to run away. "I'm late! I'm late! I'm late!"
"Now this is curious." Alicia scratched her chin. "What could a rabbit possibly be late for?"
The Warriors then rushed after the white rabbit with the dragons after them.
"Please, sir!" Prim cried to him.
Rabbit: I'm late, I'm late
For a very important date
No time to say hello
Goodbye!
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!
"this must be awfully important." Prim said to the others. "Like a party or something. Mr. Rabbit! Wait!
Rabbit: No, no, no, no, no
I'm overdue
I'm really in a stew
No time to say goodbye
Hello!
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!
The rabbit made it into a hill to avoid the Warriors and get to wherever he's supposed to be on time. The Warriors stopped and looked to see the hole as the white rabbit disappeared.
"My, what a peculiar place to have a party." Prim remarked, getting on her hands and knees.
Shade snorted in agreement.
"You know, guys, we really shouldn't be... d-d-doing this... After all, we haven't been invited..." Prim sounded nervous. And curiosity often leads to TROUBLE!" Prim found herself falling down in the hole.
The Warriors went to save her, but they found themselves falling with Prim.
The dragons nearly went down with them, but they hold onto each other and pulled themselves up. They then looked down to see the Warriors going down the hole and looked very worried for them.
"Goodbye, guys! Goodbye!" Prim called, waving goodbye to their dragons.
Shade looked down at them, waving his paw to say goodbye to them.
The Warriors continued to fall down the hole. It looked all downhill from here, no pun intended. Then Prim's jacket rose up turning into a parachute, and the Warriors grabbed onto her.
"Well. After this we should think of fa- of falling downstairs." said Prim.
The Warriors looked around in the dark and Prim spotted a lamp. She turned it on and it made the hole a green light and somehow, the Warriors are in their Warrior outfits. And they see some other things slowly falling with them, somehow. An upside down mirror came down with the light. Claudia found a book and flipped through it.
There was a loud chiming from a grandfather clock heard as it floated down with them. The Warriors back up as Prim sat in a rocking chair to relax.
"Goodness, what if we should fall right through the center of the EARTH!?" Prim fell right out of the chair, still falling. "And come out of the other side where people walk upside down?"
"Oh, but that's silly." said Prim. "Nobody-"
The Warriors then finished their fall and looked upside down to see the white rabbit running down a hallway.
"Oh, Mr. Rabbit, wait, please!" Prim called, running after him.
Then the Warriors followed after Prim to catch the rabbit. What sort of adventure could the guys have here? Only time would be able to tell.
