Alice stood in the wasteland, once called Earth. Everything around her was burning. Everything was in ruin. Everything had been killed.
And, for the first time, she felt completely in control.
Alice stepped forward into the fire. It burned the ends of her extravagant dress. It licked at her legs, but did not burn her. In fact, the fire seemed not to hurt her whatsoever.
She was focused. She was ready to take down Dark Alice, once and for all.
As Alice walked, something flew at her and struck her, causing her to fly backwards onto the ground.
What-?
"How nice to see you again."
Cheshire Cat!
"No. It's Alice now. I am the one and only."
No! You may have had free reign while I was gone, but-
Alice stood up.
It was now that she got her first, non-blurred view of Dark Alice.
Oh my God.
Dark Alice looked nothing like her anymore. Her blonde hair and purple dress were gone, replaced by a long, red, flowing dress and black, wavy hair.
What have you become, Cheshire Cat?
"I've told you. It's Alice. Now, if you will kindly-"
Dark Alice raised her hand, a black sword materializing in it.
"-DIE!"
Dark Alice stabbed the sword roughly into...the ground!?
You are a fool.
"So...I see that Chernabog did do you SOME favors. But that's okay. I have something oh, so much better than a sword."
Ha. I doubt that.
Dark Alice opened her mouth wide and screamed as loudly as she could. The sound echoed around the dead planet.
The fires were extinguished. The fields were stripped away completely. Trees were uprooted. Tornados began spinning to the ground as lightening struck the now-barren countryside, leaving black marks on the dirt.
Alice flew backwards at a high speed, as cracks formed on the ground underneath her, opening into large ravines.
When she landed, Alice rolled violently on the hard ground, her beautiful dress now torn away, left in rags.
Wh-What have you done to yourself?
Dark Alice appeared behind Alice.
"I've told you. I. Rule. The. Planet. It couldn't get much clearer than that, Alice, dear."
Who are YOU to think you rule this world!?
"I am a god."
With that, Dark Alice zoomed around and stared into Alice's eyes, hypnotizing her.
And...what will you have me do for you, my Queen?
"I want you to return to Wonderland. And when you get there, you will destroy it."
Yes.
"You look awful."
With a flick of her finger, Dark Alice generated Alice a new outfit. Though, it was far more sinister-looking than the old dress.
"Now, go."
Of course, my Queen. Anything for you.
