Mary Ann
Mary Ann decided that she'd had enough. The ungrateful White Rabbit! Well, she was going to take what little money she had been paid from this tiresome job as a maid and… and go find an adventure! Yes. She was no housekeeper anymore! She was the great Mary Ann, and no one was going to stop her.
So that's just what happened. One morning, after serving the White Rabbit his very hurried breakfast, Mary Ann gathered up her things and set off. She did feel a bit bad about leaving without telling Mr. Rabbit, though, so she quickly scrawled a note and left it in his mailbox.
"Although I don't think he'll look in there, leastways," she said to herself as she put it in. "He's always in too much of a hurry to read letters and such."
Mary Ann was able to fit everything she was bringing into her apron pockets. This was due to the fact that she was an orphan, and she had never had very much. She took with her a bit of something to eat: cookies that she had baked herself, no less, taking care to ice them with the words eat me, so anyone who took one would see that they were not poison. Besides, no one really liked to eat Mary Ann's cookies because of the mishaps she'd had with the recipe. But hopefully these, and the few that she had left behind for Mr. Rabbit, would turn out alright. She also had a few crackers, and her money. That was all she needed, anyway. She turned one last time to look back at the quaint little house that she had served in for many a set of Thursdays before turning away and walking down the lane, feeling light and free.
"Now," she said to herself, "Now I will find an adventure for sure. This is surely the beginning of something much more than a mile high."
Well? What did you think? It's an idea that's been bouncing around in my head for a bit. R&R, por favor! I know It's short, but I'll try to make the next one longer!
