Back to Wonderland
As Alice hurried down the cobbled street of London searching for a birthday present for aunt Juthet , she was scouring her brain for something her aunt would like.
"Oh clocks...." Alice said out loud. Then Alice felt a strange pull which led down a side street that had one brightly lit shop that read " Coo Coo 4 Clocks!? ". Hmm something tells me that I might just find what I'm looking for here Alice thought smugly.
As the door opened a small bell rang and then a gen as it closed behind her she looked around taking in all the different shaped clocks and then the smell it smelled of varnish and wood chippings , then she remembered a dream she had years ago, as a child. With a hall with all the walls covered by many different types of clocks and a …..... eh ….. a white rabbit? She almost questioned, just then she saw something white out of the corner of her eye, it went around the corner of the next isle.

She felt a strong tug on her wrist and then she was tumbling through darkness fist terror but then she was calm she felt she knew what was going to happen a moment later her bottom hit the ground "ouch" she said quietly while getting up and dusting her dress off. She started off down the small passage until she reached the hall of clocks her memories of this room came flooding back, but it looked nothing like it use to it was dark and damp the paper on the walls was peeling back and where the clocks use to hang you could see the vibrant colour the wall use to be. She followed the map in her memories then she came to the room with all the doors most were completely open and others were sealed shut with chains surrounding them.
