Hello everyone! Well, I hear Tim Burton is coming out with the new Alice and Wonderland movie! I can't wait to see it, but the movie inspired me to do this story! However, it's based on the cartoon Disney movie. I hope you all enjoy it, and don't forget to Read and Review!! Rated T for minor language.
Summary: 15 year old Alex is stuck babysitting her younger 8 year older sister Janice. After Janice spots a familiar white rabbit, the two fall into the world of Wonderland. It's up to Alex to find their way out, but will she be able to if she can't believe what's she seeing? Alex will soon have to learn believing is seeing if they ever want to return home. Hatter/OC pairing, not at first but it will grow
Disclaimer: I do not own Alice in Wonderland; I only own my characters, Alex and Janice.
Chapter 1: The White Rabbit
The wind was light and blew the trees softly, almost as if in a rhythmic sway. 15 year old Alexandra Landen was in a light sleep underneath one of the trees being blown. Her arms supporting her head as she leaned against the tree. Her shoulder length choppy brown hair blowing slightly in the breeze, and her chocolate brown eyes being covered by her eyelids. Her bangs fell over her forehead a bit and her pink lips were formed in a straight expression.
"Alex!!!" A scream pierced through the air, echoing into Alex's ears. She opened her eyes slowly only to see a blurry figure run up to her. Without much time to react she was ambushed by the figure.
"Alex! Wake up! Wake up!" The voice of the figure spoke the voice high in tone and filled with happiness. The figured jumped up and down on Alex with excitement and no patience.
"Oof! Ah! Ow!" Alex called out in pain every time the pain was pressured on her stomach. Pain surged through her body until she was finally able to push off the figure. The unknown visitor got up and straightened their clothes. The figure was a small girl around the age of 8; it was Janice, Alex's younger sister. Her long blonde hair formed into pigtails swaying as she moved her body impatiently. Her light brown eyes sparkling with mischief and excitement. She was wearing a light blue skirt going a bit past her knees that swayed nicely with her movements, she was also wearing a white blouse with frilly short sleeves and a light blue under tank top. Alex finally had found her strength to get up; letting out a grunt she steadied herself back on her feet. Alex's attire was quite different compared to her younger sisters. She was wearing a black long sleeved loose shirt, imprinted with a red dragon like design, her jeans were comfortable and easy to move in, a bit long but clean of holes. Her jeans barely covered her black converses. She glared with pure anger at Janice but closed her eyes in a way to calm herself. Biting her lip she took deep breaths, relaxing her hands which were at the moment balled into fists. Once she was back in her calm state of mind, she opened her eyes and turned to Janice.
"At least you're awake!" Janice spoke loudly as she folded her hands innocently in front of her, batting her eyes hoping to strike a nerve in Alex. Alex looked down at her and crossed her arms over her chest, huffing in disappointment. Janice shinned another smile but this one contained a hint of nervousness. She loosened her shoulders in defeat and decided to drop the subject, rolling her eyes and sighing she yanked at her sleeves.
"What time is it sissy?" Janice asked, looking up at her and cocking her head in question. She looked down at her expressionless, her focus changed to her watch.
"2:00." Alex replied carelessly as she rested her arm by her side once more. The small girl let out a sigh of boredom.
"Alex I'm bored!" She stated her thoughts; Alex looked down to her and cocked an eyebrow.
"What do you want me to do about it?" She asked in a bit of shock. Janice raised an arm and pointed to Alex.
"I was hoping you could do something about it. Why don't you play a game with me?" She asked longingly, her eyes flashing with a bit of sadness. Alex however simply ignored her look and shook her head.
"Sorry kid, why don't you go play over there? Away from me." Alex suggested; pointing to a riverbank close by, next to it was a neatly placed flower patch. Janice let out a sigh and bowed her head, finally giving up getting her stubborn sister to at least spare a pacing glance. She shrugged her shoulders and walked off to the area her sister had pointed out to get rid of her. Alex sat back down and didn't even bother to watch her sister walk off. She had gotten her back against the tree once more and positioned her hands behind her head. She closed her eyes and took in a deep breath, trying to slip back into her sleep. After a few minutes of this the familiar shouting of her sister came once more. Alex was now more prepared as she immediately sprung to her feet. She looked in front of her and saw her sister quickly running towards her. Her legs working quickly as she huffed and trudged on, her eyes wide with surprise at something. She ran up to Alex and breathed deeply, trying to regain the breath she lost.
"Janice? What's wrong; calm down. Take a deep breath." Alex calmed soothingly, bending down a bit to her sister's level.
"You'll never guess what I just saw!" Janice shouted, finally regaining her breath as she flung her arms up with excitement. Alex rolled her eyes and crossed her arms over her chest.
"No, I won't guess. So stop wasting time and just tell me." She ordered sternly, not liking the way her sister was procrastinating with telling her.
"I saw a white rabbit!" She shouted, and then the two became quiet. Alex raised her eyebrows, not pleased one bit. She relaxed her shoulders continuing to glare at her sister in disappointment.
"Janice, little lesson for you. Most rabbits happen to be white." She stated, displeased with Janice for getting her all excited and a bit frightened over nothing. Janice shook her head rapidly, telling Alex it's not what she meant.
"You don't understand, it had clothes, glasses, an umbrella, and a pocket watch!" She seemed to shout the last item in amusement. Alex raised an eyebrow, her sister had now caught her attention.
"Pocket watch? What kind of drug are you on Janice?" She asked, knowing her sister wouldn't understand what she was asking. Janice raised an eyebrow in confusion.
"What? I'm not! I'm serious about this! I really saw a rabbit with a pocket watch! Please Alex, ya gotta believe me." She pleaded, really needing for Alex to believe her. Alex let out a sigh in confusion. What had Janice done to make her believe her now? How did Alex know if she was just doing this for attention? Hadn't she just asked minutes ago if she would do something with her? Alex shut her eyes tightly in confusion, obviously she was not getting the sleep she wanted let alone needed. Also….she didn't have anything better to do, alright, she would go check this possibly make believe rabbit.
"Alright." She spoke softly after holding the moment of silence long enough. A smile spread upon Janice's face in excitement and happiness.
"Let's go!" She shouted as she grabbed onto Alex's hand tightly and pulled her along to the rabbit spotting area. For such small feet and legs Janice's pace was quick and steady. Alex looked around, curiosity now filling inside her quickly. If this rabbit was real she wouldn't what to think! Janice finally came to a stop interrupting Alex's thoughts.
"This is where I saw him." Janice stated, looking around for said rabbit. Alex raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms over her chest once more. Janice looked up to Alex as a frown came across her face.
"Alex, please believe me. I saw him right here! Please, trust me." She said, with plead in her voice, a begging tone tugging at her tone. A look of guilt crossed Alex's face, perhaps she was telling the truth. She has never Janice this upset before, so, it was a possibility she was not fibbing.
"Well I…" She started but was cut off from a voice not too far away.
"I'm late! I'm late! For a very important date!" It called nervously as it seemed to pass by the two girls, Alex's head zipped only see the tip of two objects….ears?
"Alex! The rabbit! It's the white rabbit!" Janice called in excitement if not shock. Alex's mouth fell agape, the friggen bunny was real! Janice tugged at Alex's arm forcefully.
"Come on! Come on! We gotta follow him." Not able to respond from shock, Alex let Janice pull her along. The two ran quickly, trying to keep up with the fast woodland creature. Alex's eyes never left the path in front of her, until Janice skidded to a stop, causing Alex to run into her, tripping over a bit.
"Why did we stop?" Alex asked, wanting to continue and not lose sight of the frantic rabbit.
"I lost which direction he went…" Janice admitted, Alex let out a sigh and rolls her eyes but stopped when her gaze reached the ground. She then looked at the ground behind her from which they came, then back in front of her. There were rabbit tracks behind them, but not in front of them.
"He didn't go on…he stopped somewhere." Alex concluded, looking around for anything or anywhere the rabbit could of gone.
"Alex over here!" Janice shouted from a few feet away, her head zipped that way to see Janice on her knees looking through something. She walked over eyeing her sister curiously.
"A hole?" Alex asked curiously, getting down on her knees to observe it. Janice took her head out and turned to Alex, flashing a smile.
"Let's go in!" She suggested her eyes widening as she blurted it out.
"Oh uh no way, you think my fat butt is gonna fit down that hole, you have another thing coming." She replied biting her lip nervously, afraid she was going to lose this battle.
"Come on, it's just.." Janice had put too much pressure under her knee causing the little ground under it to collapse, making her fall forward into the hole. Janice let out a piercing scream in fear as she fell in tumbling a bit.
"Janice!" Alex screamed in shock as she reached out for her sister's foot, but with her luck, she missed by an inch.
"Shit." Alex mumbled under her breath, and before she knew it, she found herself diving in after her.
