Thank you for reading, this is my first fanfic so please tell me what you think. :) thanks.
Everything fell between the blurry lines of reality and insanity for Alice. Everything she used to know about order and society completely twisted from that of when she was young. Her mother tried everything, from churches to therapists, but nothing they ever did helped. She would never be an ordinary girl, but always a girl slightly... off.
"Alice.." She heard from a distance... "ALICE!" She snapped up turning to face her mother. "You have got to stop all this day dreaming!" Bernen screeched from over the motor of her new sports car. "Before you end up like your father." Her mother said sternly.
"You don't have a clue about what happened to dad!" Alice erupted to her mother. "Although, we all know your constant bickering at him didn't help anything, mother." She looked out the window along the long winding road she knew like the back of her hand. And she hated like the unexplained scars on her back. Running a hand through her long dark brown hair, she closed her eyes while putting one of her black boots on the dashboard. When she opened them she saw a blue blob on her shoe, it seemed to be smiling. Then smoke rose up and it was gone.
She rubbed her bright green eyes with her index finger and thumb. Shaking her head, she looked out the window. She shuttered inside. She didn't want to succumb to the same disease that took hold of her father. She couldn't. Pulling up her black backpack up from under her feet she shuffled through it, trying to find her one escape from the madness threatening to take hold. THERE! She found it. Her tiny purple to go pill kit. Taking out her pills she took each little pill. She only brought enough for today knowing how much anxiety just this trip would bring her.
She took her pill out and dropped one in her mouth. Dry swallowing it hurt and she winced as it tried to stick to the sides of her throat until it finally dropped down into her stomach, slowly releasing the chemicals until her mind cleared. She opened her eyes just as her mother was stopping the car. The huge iron gates opening waiting for their entrance, "Alice, you know you are expected to act like a lady of high standing. We are high classed women, and will act accordingly! I will pick you up in one hour." She looked around and sneered. "White roses... I pay good money for my husband to get treated here!" She parked the car and Alice jumped out. "Red roses, they will hear about this!"
Alice turned back and faced her mother, "It's just a color. They still smell the same, don't hate things just 'cause they're different, mother." and she slammed the door in her mothers face before she could say anything. Walking up to the doors of her father's asylum, she closed her eyes, took a deep breath and opened the doors. She walked up to the front desk and said; "Hello, my name is Alice Vengence. I'm here to see my father, Charlie Vengence." She smiled pleasantly to the receptionist.
"Just one second." She said, clicking things into the computer. Alice's eyes strayed to the window, and outside she saw a frantic looking white rabbit. He was stopped outside the bushes wearing a deep blue vest. Alice rubbed her eyes to make sure she saw what she was real. When she opened them she saw the rabbit pull out a small gold watch and point at her. Alice turned around and sprinted for the door. She ran out into the garden, almost tripping over a guy in a wheel chair. She could hear the patient exclaiming, "WHITE RABBIT! IT HAD A VEST!" And the workers promptly shushing them. They started getting a bit rowdy, but that didn't stop the running. She got to the bush the rabbit was at and looked around. She spotted the rabbit at the corner of the hedges motioning for her to follow. She took a step back, rabbits can't make hand motions. But curiosity got the best of her and she found her feet moving her forward.
She ran through the hedges to find herself in a forest, a forest that seemed familiar to her. Pulling her bag tight on her shoulders she saw the little rabbit stop at a tree, she got a little closer and saw it smile and wink at her then disappeared into a hole by a tree trunk. She ducked looking in the hole, holding onto a tree root when the hole in the ground got bigger and she fell in. A loud scream erupted from her throat she looked around trying to grab onto something, she tried to grab a grandfather clock as it fell down, unable to get hold of it she stopped trying and just fell, it felt natural. Almost comforting to her now. "I think I've fallen forever... I think I've gone insane..." She said to herself just as a huge purple and black checkered ribbon engulfed her she felt a cool breeze all over her body and looked down realizing she was completely naked. With a shriek she looked back down to cover herself but when she looked she realized the job was done for her. She was wearing a deep purple and black corset that tied in the back and a black mini skirt with a purple petticoat. She had black white thigh high stockings with all the royal suites on them, Clovers, Spades, Diamonds, and of course Hearts. On her feet were combat boots, which went up to her knees and tied in the front.
The huge ribbon that had wrapped around her disappeared. She realized she was on the ground in a room. There was a huge mirror in the middle of the room, next to it a table with what seemed like a million little bottles labeled 'Drink me'. She rose one hand up and softly touched the mirror. She shook her head and leaning it against the cool glass. "This is absolute insanity. I did fall into father's unwanted genes... Well..." She said picking up a bottle from the table. "I've already taken the fall..." She threw her head back and drank the tiny bottle. She cringed at the taste, falling to her hands and knees coughing. Her stomach settled as she tried to get up she softly tapped the mirror it reacted moving in waves like touching a pond of water. "Curiouser and curiouser..." She whispered to herself as she closed her eyes and went into the looking glass.
