It was a cool, Fall day, and and I decided to face my fears and climb to the top of the mountain to see Caterpillar. It would be hard, but I knew I had to do it. My name is Alice, and my destiny is to save my wonderland. Over the past eleven years, my mind has been warped by the deprivation of my family. I am not how I used to be. I will never be the same either. Since the last time I was in wonderland, things changed. Ever since the fire... the fire that killed my whole family. Mom, Dad, and even Lizzie. Gone. My therapist, Dr. Bumby, tried to convince me that I didn't do it, but I did. I know I did. The flames, the horror, the heat of a thousand suns on my burning skin... I will never forget that night.
Immediately as I hiked up the mountain, I was joined by four Origami Ants, and an Origami Ant Monk. The monk stepped towards me to the point where he was standing at my knees.
"What do you want, ant?" I asked him inquisitively.
"Please," the ant pleaded. "Go up to see Caterpillar. We haven't heard from him in weeks! Please make sure the Great Caterpillar is okay!" I stepped over the ant and continued on, vorpal blade in hand. I stepped through a great stone gate, and came to see a long path going up. I ran up the path as fast as I could, trying to keep my breath steady. By now, my once beautiful dress was tattered and frayed, the pretty flowered pattern covered in blood of miscellaneous creatures. The dress was dark blue silk with japanese styled flowers and butterflies sprawled across it. Some say that it is made out of Caterpillar's silk. All of a sudden, I came across a herd of four Samurai Wasps.

Not only were they Samurai Wasps, but one was a Daimyo Wasp, and it came right towards me. It tried to attack me, but of course, I availed. I pulled out my hobby horse, stunned all four of the wasps, and then killed them one by one, the Daimyo being last. I stood in the middle of all of the nasty bugs' remains and slowly crumbled to my knees. Being Alice is hard.

Finally, I made it to the top of the mountain. I was exhausted, and a Samurai Wasp had snuck up on me and stabbed me in the shoulder. Of course, because of this, I had to ruin my dress' obi to wrap it up. Of course, the blood had soaked through the silk, but I didn't care. I would be better soon. I just had to see Caterpillar. At last, I stepped into Caterpillar's cave. As I walked in, the first sight that approached my eyes was a giant cocoon hanging by several silk supports attached to it.

"Ahhh, Alice, my dear! I was expecting you!" the Caterpillar said, trying to sound cheerful.

"You know, Caterpillar, you try to sound ecstatic to see me, but your tone is too deceiving and cruel to match the words lifting off of your lips." I said to Caterpillar cruelly.

"So, you've come for what?" he asked me inquisitively. "Advice? Goods? My silk? And my God, Alice, what have you done to that dress?" I looked down to see my own destroyed appearance."

"That dress is made out of my pure silk, you know." He inquired.

"I've come to speak to you about the Queen. Or what's left of her." I said, walking towards what looked like Caterpillar's face through the cocoon.

"Well, if you've come inquiring information about the Queen, do I have a story you."
