Years had passed Alice felt sad, but what was there to be sad about? She was now a full grown woman; she had a loving husband called Jason and a loving 5 year old daughter called Sophie. She had all of these brilliant things about her life; she even became a secretary so why did she feel so empty inside. She sat on the windowsill of her room in the mansion she called home.

"Honey" Said a man stood in the doorway. Alice turned around, it was her husband Jason.

"Sophie is looking for you dear." He said with soft calm voice, Alice wiped a small tear from her eye.

"Thank you dear, erm where is she again?" She asked walking past him in the doorway.

"Her favourite place" He chuckled,

"The garden's" She said with a smile; that was always Alice's favourite place to go to as well. Jason smiled and gave a gentleman's nod of the head as he kissed his wife softly on the cheek and walked off down the corridor without a word. Alice watched him leave, once he was out of sight she left to find her daughter outside.

"Sophie, Sophie" She repeated looking for her darling little girl, but she could not find Sophie well that was until she heard her laughter from the rose garden.

"There you are my dear" Alice said as her little girl ran to her for a hug.

"Mommy want to play a game?" She asked, Sophie loved playing games but there was one game she loved the most. Tag,

"Of cause love, and would that game be tag?" She asked waiting for her daughter's usual reaction.

"Yes, yes please.... Mommy" She said calming down.

"Yes" Alice asked coming down to her daughter's level.

"You're it!" She shouted tapping her mum then running away. Alice giggled as she went off to find Sophie. Sophie always ran to the woods to make sure her mother never caught her, Alice ran in between the trees, suddenly Sophie went out of sight and with all the stress of looking for her child, she wasn't looking where she was going. Then Alice's scream echoed through the tree's as she fell down a dark bottomless hole.

She woke up in a large room with a hypnotic pattern on the floor, she saw what seemed to be 10 doors around her, she ran to each one but they were all locked. She noticed one door which was Farley small, but when she saw a key lying on the floor beside her she got an idea.

"Oh, even if this key did open the door it is still far too small for me to get through." She thought to herself, then she turned around and spotted a drink on the glass table behind her. "Drink me" Was the message that was attached to it. So Alice opened the top of the bottle and pressed it to her lips until she got a taste of the strange liquid. After she had a drink she dropped the glass, it tasted foul so she covered her mouth as if she was going be sick. Then she got smaller and smaller, but she was lucky she had another dress under the one she was wearing otherwise she would have nothing to wear that fit her new size. She exited the strange room and went through the small door.

After a long and very tiresome walk, she saw a table, a large table Alice didn't know what to do, suddenly she saw a man with strange orange hair and hat, a small mouse in clothes and a rabbit. Alice moved closer to get a better look. She tried to keep out of sight this lot in front of her looked strange. So she knew she didn't want to mix with them. Suddenly the man at the end of the table with the strange hair and hat looked up and stared at Alice.

"Who's that" The strange man shouted in a giddy voice, pointing at her, Alice tried to run away but the man walked over the table, picked her up and then put her down in the chair beside him.

"Oh, why it's Alice!" He shouted happily.

"Alice!" The mouse and rabbit said in the same happy tone.

"Who are you?" She asked, Alice didn't look that much different to these creatures. After she asked this question, the rabbit and mouse frowned Alice turned to look at them, their gaze was not at her, but at the man with orange hair, Alice turned to face him he was completely shocked but mainly disappointed.

"Alice?" Asked the mouse moving closer to her. "Do you not remember us?"

"Should I?" She asked looking confused. The mouse sighed.

"I'm Mallymkun, this is March Hare." Said the mouse who apparently was called Mallymkun, she was pointing to the rabbit as well that was apparently called March Hare.

"And erm... this is Hatter" Mallymkun said pointing to the man with orange hair behind Alice. Alice turned around,

"Oh so that's your name" Alice said with a look of uncertainty on her face. Hatter shook his head he looked distraught.

"Excuse me" He said sadly,

"Oh Hatter" Mallymkun said trying to stop him,

"I just need a minute to myself." He said sadly, Alice just stood confused. Meanwhile Hatter was in the woods, he could not believe it the last time he saw Alice she told him she would never forget him, but she did.

"I should have known... she would forget." He said to himself sadly.

"Hatter?" Said a voice from behind him, Hatter spun around

"Alice" He said surprised.

"So... How do you know my name?" She asked staying in one spot. Hatter wore a sad smile on his face.

"I'm an old friend." He said turning away from Alice.

"Have I offended you or something sir?" He asked her, she didn't talk the same she sounded like a boring woman.

"Why did you call me sir?" He asked turning around sharply.

"Tis the way a lady speaks." She said proudly. Hatter laughed, every time he laughed she did too.

"What on earth are you laughing at?" She asked, she looked unimpressed. Hatter stopped laughing,

"Just fooling around" He said with a sad smile.

"Yes I can see that" She said in a snobby tone. Hatter turned his smile to a frown he could not believe the way Alice turned out,

"When did you become so......?" Hatter said then seeing her annoyed look he decided not to finish his sentence.

"So....... what?" She asked, Hatter turned back around to ignore her.

"Tell me" She shouted moving next to the mad man.

"Tell me!" She said again pulling on his arm, to make him face her, he just looked down at her with the sad expression fixed on his face. Alice kept shouting at him he got angry so he just shouted out what he was thinking.

"When did you get so boring!!!!???" He wailed at the top of his voice. His angry face dropped and turned to sadness.

"Boring am I?" She asked angrily.

"I'm sorry I shouldn't have said that" He said trying to apologise.

"You're right you shouldn't!" She snapped back, then she walked back to the table where Mallymkun and March Hare were. Hatter watched her sadly as she left.

"I want to go home" She said sharply to the two at the table, Hatter heard what she said he just continued to face the opposite direction, he felt somehow that would make him feel less awful. It didn't...
