Author's Note: I apologize for how short the chapter is, and for the fact that this whole story will probably make no sense whatsoever.


It was a particularly gloomy day, overcast and beginning to storm. Alice's sister was focused on completing their studies. 'So given the circumstances…Alice." The younger sister turned her head from the cloud she had been staring at. Even at sixteen, she wasn't much for studies. "Alice, if you won't listen we may as well go home." The attention of the blonde was once again back to the skies. "You go if you want to," she said, "But I'm staying here." Shaking her head the oldest sister rose, brushed off her dress, and walked away saying, "I can't believe how immature you are." Her sibling ignored her.

For the next twenty minutes, Alice lay still where she was. Then something caught her eye, a tiny gray rabbit with red eyes. It stared at her, almost as though the intensity of it could reach her core. She blinked, the rabbit blinked, Alice shifted. Off went the rabbit scampering behind a set of bushes nearby. As the old saying goes, curiosity killed the cat, Alice was not a cat and so decided to try and find her furry onlooker. Getting to her feet, she walked over to what she assumed to be the hiding place, and instead stopped in front of a hole. A hole that was much bigger than any rabbit. Kneeling down, the young girl peered into the missing earth. Something moved, and so seeing this, she moved closer. From her point of view she could see nothing except dirt, but she did feel something seconds later when from behind, she was pushed. Down she fell into the unknown.

Screaming, Alice fell. After quite some time, which felt like hours, Alice opened her eyes. She knew she had been falling longer than was natural, if it was indeed natural for someone to fall here. Just how long she had been traveling this course she did not know. All that surrounded her was darkness, black as ink, black as ash. Up ahead, a glow was seen. Having nothing else to do, Alice stared at the light. As she did, it became greater in illumination. With a final flash, Alice was flung onto grass.
