Chapter 2: The Entrance to Wonderland
As much as Alex wanted to scream, she simply couldn't for something in her throat was holding the scream back. She tumbled and twirled as she fell, which seemed endless. Just then she bounced off something, she looked down, an open umbrella, she tumbled over it and quickly grabbed on to Janice's ankle. Janice was the one holding tightly onto the umbrella, which slowed down the fall, almost as if they were floating and drifting. Janice looked down to her sister and smiled an ear to ear grin.
"Hi sissy!" She greeted happily, Alex however ignored her sister and looked around her at the strange passage they were falling down. She caught a glance into a mirror, however her reflection was flipped upside down and it seemed to wink at her, she raised an eyebrow in confusion. Janice released one of her hands and was able to turn on a light, illuminating the passage a bit more brightly.
"This is weird..." Was all Alex was able to say, Janice grabbed onto the umbrella with both hands, tightening her grasp.
"Yeah..." Her younger sister replied, Alex continued to look around. This place was so strange, how in the world could this all be possible? She shook her head, shaking the thought away, for she knew she wouldn't get an answer.
"Where do you think it leads?" Janice asked, breaking her sister's thoughts. She looked up at Janice who was seemingly avoiding her gaze.
"I don't know..." Alex stated, but her voice was drowned out by the ringing of a grandfather clock. They passed the clock and the sound drifted off, Alex watched the clock disappear, which made her curiosity rise.
"Hey Alex.....what if we went through the center of the Earth?" Janice asked, Alex focused her gaze back on Janice and raised an eyebrow in curiosity.
"What? Oh.....you mean if someone should fall right through the center of the Earth?" Alex asked, feeling a bit like a geography teacher, Janice nodded and continued.
"And come out on the other side where people walk upside down." Janice stated, Alex felt a bit of nervousness creep upon her as they tipped upside down, and ironically, passed a map with a picture of the globe.
"But, that's kinda crazy because no one can..." But before Alex could finish, she was cut off by a bang to the head, knocking into her sister; who was now hanging on a rack by her feet.
"Look Alex! The white rabbit!" Janice shouted in excitement, pointing to the rabbit who was scurrying away around a corner. Alex focused her upside down vision but was finally able to see the white rabbit clearly before he zoomed out of view. Why was she doing all of this? Just to see where a bunny was going? Why did she even care?
"Come on! We gotta follow him!" Janice ordered as she flipped over the rack back onto her feet. Oh yes, now she remembered, Janice was the reason...why was it always her fault?
"Why? Where could a bunny possibly be going?" Alex replied, a bit louder then she expected, struggling to untangle herself from the rack.
"I don't know, but that's what I wanna find out!" She shouted back impatiently, she finally gave up waiting for her sister and ran off after the rabbit. Alex cursed her luck and used all her weight to flip herself over.
"Ah!" She shouted in shock and in pain as she landed on her back, she let out a frustrated groan as she got up and turned to the path in front of her.
"Okay, I officially hate rabbits." She mumbled to herself as she sprinted after her sister, she skidded around a corner and found her sister staring a bit in confusion in front of a door.
"What's wrong?" Alex asked, jogging up to her, however her expression remained the same and she didn't move.
"The rabbit went this way, but...." She replied, not finishing her sentence, it seemed as if she couldn't. This only made Alex roll her eyes in a bit of annoyance, she took a step forward to the door.
"There should be no buts, you dragged me along to find out what this rabbit is doing and we're not stopping now." Alex explained as she yanked open the door, but jumped back a bit in shock as another door appeared. It's shape a bit shifted from the first one, and it was also smaller in size. What kind of trick was this? She shrugged it off and opened that one only to be surprised by another one, this one also different in size and shape. She rolled her eyes, now tired of this game, she opened up the door which showed another. This time Alex didn't stop she simply kept opening them until it finally stopped, the doors became smaller every time one was opened. Panic came into Alex as she hoped it didn't get too small so she wouldn't be able to fit through. The doors finally stopped and the last door was quite small, however, if Alex tried hard enough, she could probably just be able to slip through. She turned back to Janice, who now looked a bit scared and unsure. Should they continue, Alex thought. It looked as if Janice had had enough already, however, Alex wasn't sure how to get home. It wasn't possible for them to go back the way they came, so they only way to get back was to go forward is what she supposed. She shined a reassuring smile at Janice, hoping to give her that bit of confidence she needed to continue on. Janice was able to smile back, having that done Alex turned to the door and opened it. Without another thought, she got down on her hands and knees and squeezed through, she forced her giant butt through and came out on the other side. The new room was incredibly large in size, each of the four walls was a different color and the room was completely empty. However the only thing that stuck out was a very small door on the other side. Alex scurried back to her feet and sprinted across the large room, Janice turned back to see the entrance close, making her shiver a bit. She got back on her feet as well and trudged after her older sister. Alex skidded to a stop just as the curtain closed on her, the rabbit surely went this way. For it was the only way...wasn't it? She bent down on her knees and yanked away the curtains, then grabbed onto the doorknob.
"Ooooohhh!!" A voice spoke in pain, making Alex scream and fall back in shock, landing on her bottom. She looked at the door only to see the doorknob moving! Her eyes widened and her mouth fell agape.
"Um.....I'm....sorry?" Alex apologized questionably, the doorknob smiled and looked to Alex which made her back up a bit. Was it actually alive?
"Oh, oh it's quite alright. But you did give me quite a turn." The doorknob joked, obviously male and he spoke in a surprisingly jolly tone. Alex continued to stare, confusion flushing out her expression, did she honestly have to believe this? Alex finally shook her head into focus, trying to find the right words to speak.
"Right well, sorry. You see me and my sister are..." But Alex was interrupted by the knob.
"Rather good one? Doorknob, turn?" He asked, laughing hysterically at his own lame joke. Making Alex roll her eyes and let out a sigh. By this time Janice had taken her place next to her, her expression becoming one of shock as she stared at the knob.
"Yeah that's great but...." But she was interrupted once more.
"Well, one good turn deserves another. What can I do for you?" He asked, raising his voice in curiosity and looking at Alex suspiciously, his tone become serious finally. It took Alex a second to realize he was asking her a question.
"Oh right well...me and my sister are looking for a white rabbit so um...do you think maybe you could...?" She didn't finish her question as she got on her hands and knees and scooted closer.
"Eh? Oh!" He replied, now realizing and he opened his mouth wide. Alex smiled in success as she saw the bunny hoping on the other side.
"There he is! Well now we gotta get throu-..." She reached to open the doorknob but he shrunk back refusing.
"Ah, sorry, but you're much too big." He stated, Alex lowered her eyebrows and placed her hands on her hips.
"Look, I know I have a fat ass but you don't have to point it out so I sug-..." Janice butted in, tugging on her sisters sleeve.
"No like....our size sissy..." She corrected, Alex gave her a sister a 'I knew that' look. She turned back to the doorknob, perhaps hoping he changed his mind.
"Simply impassable." He stated, she cocked an eyebrow.
"You mean impossible." She corrected him, he shook his 'head' a bit.
"No impassable, nothings impossible." He stated, chuckling a bit after his sentence.
"Alright then...." Was all Alex could say next, she turned to Janice hoping for an answer...or even a suggestion. However all Alex got was a shrug, she rolled her eyes. Impassable? What the hell was that supposed to mean? She shook her head slowly and after a few seconds of silence she turned to the doorknob.
"Why don't you two try the bottle on the table?" He suggested, motioning to behind the two confused girls.
"Table?" Janice asked, she turned around and Alex followed this gesture as soon as they blinked, a silver well decorated table appeared in front of them.
"Where did that come fro-.....not even gonna ask." Alex stopped herself before she continued, she took a few steps up to the table and observed it closely. Janice came up next to her and looked at the table as well, however, she was much too short to even see over the top. Alex bit her bottom lip nervously as she gingerly picked up the bottle with the tip of her fingers.
"Read the directions, and directly you'll be directed in the right direction." The doorknob instructed from behind Alex, chuckling at the end of his sentence. Alex pulled the label out straight so she could read it.
"Drink me...well...ya can't get more specific than that I guess..." Alex stated mostly to herself but glanced at Janice.
"I don't know Alex...what if it's poison?" Janice asked, her voice full of doubt. Alex bit her lip and stared back at the strange bottle, pondering this thought. After a few seconds of deep thinking she turned to Janice.
"Janice, an impassable doorknob who thinks he's the next Adam Sandler told us to drink this...I don't think it's poison." Alex stated, she yanked off the cork top and sniffed the contents inside the bottle. She took in a deep breath and finally took a sip.
"Hmm...tastes like...cherry pie...chocolate pudding...pinapple, roast turkey..... holy shit!" She shouted in shock as she lost grip on the bottle, it was now bigger than she was! The label fell on top of her as she screamed a bit in shock.
"What the hell just happened?!" She yelled in shock and confusion and perhaps in a bit of anger. She was now sitting down and looking around, panic stricken. Janice looked down at the bottle in complete shock and bewilderment.
"Alex?" Janice asked, making her cover her ears, for Janice's voice was much louder when Alex was this height. Janice bent down to look at her older sister, raising and eyebrow in confusion. Alex pushed the giant piece of paper off her and walked over to the door, dusting off her clothes.
"You almost went out like a candle!" The doorknob stated, laughing once more. Alex rolled her eyes once more, very frustrated with this doorknob.
"However, I'm just the right size now." She explained in a matter-o-factly way. She walked over to the doorknob who now looked much bigger and reached for his so called nose. However once more he pulled away laughing hysterically.
"Oh, no use! Ha ha ha ha. I forgot to tell you, ho ho ho ho! I'm locked!" He explained in a sort of happy way. Her mouth fell agape as she slapped her palm to her forehead.
"NOW you tell me!" She shouted in disappointment and anger, massaging her temples gently.
"Ha ha ha, but of course, uh, you've got the key, so..." He said, she raised an eyebrow and interrupted.
"What key? Don't tell me theres a key!" She shouted forcefully, he chuckled a bit but rose an eyebrow, or what seemed like it.
"Now don't tell me you left it up there." He said motioning back up to the table, and once again in a blink a key appeared stuck under the table.
"Oh how wonderful." Alex stated sarcastically, rolling her eyes in annoyance.
"Janice wait, don't drink the..." But it was too late and her sister was placed next to her...now smaller as well.
"Way to go Sherlock! Now we can't get the key." Alex gesutred to the key now high up from them and stated to Janice, who looked up at her and smiled nervously at her mistake. Seeing Alex's disappointment in her she slouched to the ground and sulked. Alex let out a sigh of annoyance and turned to the doorknob.
"Any ideas Mr....doorknob thing?" She asked, unsure of what to call him, he nodded a bit.
"Try the box, naturally." Was all he said as a box magically appeared in front of Janice. The small girl jumped back at this and gasped in amazement.
"Freakin stuff popping out of nowhere..." Alex grumbled and crossed her arms over her chest and shrugged up her shoulders. Janice opened the box, it was full of delicious looking cookie. A wide smile spread on her face as she grabbed at the first one she saw. It was white and powdery and in red letters it said, 'eat me'.
"Eat me?" Janice repeated in question, making Alex roll her eyes.
"Wow, what do people think, we're retarded? What else do they expect us to do? Shove it up our ass?" She asked mainly herself, however Janice sort of ignored it and took a small bite.
"So what is it supposed to do...wow, wow, wow, wow, wow!" Janice shouted as she grew a size bigger with every wow. Alex stood back up against the door, she was much bigger than her original height which made Alex a bit scared. One of Janice's feet stamped on the door, muffling the doorknobs talking. Alex was able to get out of the way and sighed in relief.
"Sweet silence!" She shouted raising her arms up happily, having dealed enough with the ridiculous doorknob. The doorknob once more tried to speak, but failed as it came out in muffles.
"whtwhsthswwdthdwd!" The doorknob tried to speak, Janice released her foot and rubbed her head.
"What did you say?" She asked him politely to repeat himself. He chuckled a bit at this and turned his nose.
"I said 'a little of that went a long way'." He said laughing once more, Alex rolled her eyes and let out a sigh.
"Well I don't think it's funny, now...now we'll never get home!" Janice shouted as tears started streaming down her face. Alex's expression became shocked, then turned to anger as she looked to the doorknob.
"Nice going!" She snapped angrily, the doorknob however ignored Alex and tried to comfort Janice.
"Oh, come on now. Crying won't help." The doorknob tried to sooth, Alex's eyes widened as she realized the room was getting filled with Janice's tears! She panicked and looked around for a solution.
"I know but...but I...I can't stop!" Janice shouted out between sobs before her talking was burried in cries. Alex bit her lip as the room continued to fill, she would surely drown soon if Janice didn't stop.
"Hey, hey you! Bwbwlwbbwlwbl! Say, this won't do at all! You, you up there, stop! Stop, I say! Oh look! The bottle, the bottle..." The doorknob shouted as he gulped down a stream of Janice's tears. Continuing to sob, Janice picked up the bottle and took the rest of what was inside, immediately becoming small again. Luckily Janice was able to land safely in the bottle. Alex however didn't have the same luck as she tried to stay a float, gasping for air.
"Alex!" Janice shouted to get her sister's attention, she swam that way and grabbed hold tight. Able to climb in with Janice pulling at one of her arms. She fell in next to Janice with a thud, there was silence between the two until Alex turned to Janice and glared.
"I wish you didn't cry so much." Was all she could say, the two then looked out to only be swallowed by the doorknob with a gallon of water.
