Chapter 2: Strange but true
"Hello mister rabbit, do have some tea. Do stay won't you? I hope I didn't scare you, you see I think I have gone mad with delight. Ask Alice here she will tell you"
"Like a chester cat you always smile in such peculiar ways. Why must you?"
"We are all mad here."
"why must you go home?"
The words spun past her head, she tried to grab them but they were too fast, whizzing, blurring. The sounds of them stuck in her head getting mixed up.
"Why must you in such peculiar ways, we are all home. Hello Alice here."
And faster.
"WhymisterhelloaskalicechestercatpeculiarmustyouAlice."
And stranger
"why must we die, why must we kill each other, why mister rabbit why?"
"Stranger things have happened."
Then there was a loud one, so real, so normal.
"Wake up Essy, wake up"
More urgent this time.
"Esssssssy, wake up. You are dreaming, don't die."
The characters and names spun around
"Why must we die, why must we, do stay."
Wake up Essy."
Suddenly the characters broke into haggard shards that danced around her, beautiful hollow blues and deep violets, how they shone. But she then realized.
"Please come back I need you, please. Don't leave me."
but they were gone.
