ODAC in Wonderland

ODAC in Wonderland

Chapter 1

Shannon gave a resounding 'Oof!' as she landed after the fall. She took a few moments to make sure everything was in order before sitting up and dusting herself off.

"You'd think the college could spring for better things with all the money we spend there." she told herself as she worked

It was then that Shannon noticed she was sitting on a beach rather than…Well, she didn't know where she expected to be after the fall, but this wasn't it.

What made it stranger was the fact that half of the beach was bathed in sunshine while the other half was washed with moonlight.

"This place seems familiar…" Shannon mused aloud

Her ponderings were interrupted when she saw two figures approaching over the horizon. One was tall and fat while the other was short and thin. When they got closer, Shannon gasped in surprise.

"The Walrus and the Carpenter?!" she exclaimed in astonishment

"Hey, Jenni?" Katie inquired

"Yes?" Jenni returned

"Where are we?" Katie asked

"I don't know," Jenni said

"Maybe one of us should open our eyes…" Katie suggested

With that statement made, she opened her eyes.

"Jenni! You need to see this!" Katie called to her companion

Jenni opened her eyes as well, blinking owlishly at what she saw.

The two of them were lying in the middle of a long table, surrounded by all sorts of tea pots and fixin's for tea.

"It's rude to land in the middle of a party without being invited," came a voice from their right

The two girls sat up and found a man in an oversized green hat and a yellow jacket staring at them. Beside him was a brown hare in a red jacket, also staring, and in the tea pot the hare held, a brown mouse in a purple jacket was dozing lightly.

"I guess this gives new meaning to 'crashing' a party," Jenni stated with a little grin

Ulga found herself all tangled up in the boughs of a tall tree when she awoke. She took some time to observe her surroundings; she noticed that one other member of the ODAC was there with her, already awake and blinking at her.

"You know, now that I think on it, you look vaguely familiar." Ulga announced

"We went to high school together," Ama stated. "Don't you remember at all?"

"Nope." Ulga replied

Ama rolled her eyes before attempting to get loose; Ulga soon followed suit in the endeavor.

"Do you need some help?" questioned a voice from the girl's left

They turned to see a disembodied grin floating above a nearby branch. A pair of golden eyes faded in next. A pink cat banded with purple stripes soon materialized around the facial features.

"Yeah! We could use some help. Can you help us?" Ulga said

"No," the Cat replied

"Then why bother asking?" Ama inquired

"I was simply curious," the Cat informed them, seeming to grin wider

Ulga paused in her attempts to get free.

"Touché. You merely asked us if we needed help, you never said you'd actually offer us any." Ulga told the Cat. "No fake. No fake. I have to give you mad props for that one."

"No! I'm not a flower! But I'm not a weed either!" Missa exclaimed to the hysterical flora around her

Despite her protests, the Flowers would have none of it, and the ODAC's President soon found herself dripping wet and on her way out of the garden.

"And here I was thinking this place might be a little different than the one we came from," Missa muttered to herself as she walked

"A-E-I-O-U

U-O-I-E-A" a voice sang from up ahead

Missa picked up her pace and found a blue caterpillar sitting on top of a mushroom, smoking a hookah as he sang.

"That's not something you see every day. Even for the ODAC…" she mused to herself as she approached.
