Me: Okay! Second world is Wonderland! I picked straws based off all the names given and got Ace for Alice's male name! Thank you all who gave me suggestions and thank you mymag99 for the name Ace!

"Where are we?" Sora asked, looking around the very pink and circular room patterned so much it made it hard to see the hallway leading in some direction. "Did we…fall down the hole?

"Yep!" Goofy laughed, picking up his new shield that had fallen to the floor (he had purchased the shield from Cid's shop that morning). "We're always falling somehow."

"Really?" Sora asked, interested. "Well, I don't really fall per say, but I do always lose in my fights to Riku…But I'm definitely going to beat him one day-that's why I'm going to train to become stronger! Maybe you both should train to not fall?"

"Hmph." Donald huffed as he got up and dusted himself off (was there even dust on him? How could he think he was dirty when he fell on a clean floor?). "Easy for you to say."

Though Donald said it with a disgruntled voice, he was smiling a bit as he turned to Sora.

…Or at least he was until a white rabbit with amazingly bloodshot eyes barrelled into him.

But it got worse.

"I'm late! I'M LATE! I'M LATEEE!" the rabbit shouted, voice harassed and panicked as he picked himself off the floor and continued running down the hallway-running right over Donald.

Donald twitched as footmarks covered him and as Sora and Goofy helped him up, they couldn't stop his reaction as he suddenly ran down the same path as the rabbit did, shouting all the way.

"HEY! Get back here!" Donald's voice echoed down the pink hallway and shrugging a bit, Sora decided to follow Donald (they were meant to explore the world. Besides, Riku, Kairi or the king might be around-plus the hallway seemed the only way through the world so far so they had to go that way).

Goofy followed at a calmer pace like Sora, both feeling relatively comfortable in each other's presence.

"So, do you like this Riku fella? Or the Kairi fella?" Goofy asked suddenly and it startled Sora so much, she turned to stare at him in surprise while continuing to walk.

This proved to be a mistake, as she ran right into the door…that got smaller and smaller.

"Wha…?" Sora's mouth dropped open as Goofy opened three doors one after another, each getting progressively smaller.

Sora managed to fit in with little effort but Goofy had some trouble getting through the door (luckily Sora managed to pull him through by grabbing his hands and tugging).

"Gawrsh, where's Donald?" Goofy asked, looking around the area of what appeared to be a bedroom of a young girl obsessed with too much pink, a teddy bear…flattened pots and objects…And a fireplace and chimney…?

"I'm not sure…" Sora frowned, wondering if she should sit on one of the chairs (they seemed a bit too small, even for one her height-Were they for dolls or something?).

"Anyway, which one of em' do ya like?" Goofy asked, smiling happily. "Or are ya' too embarrassed?"

Sora blushed, a scowl coming onto her face. "That's not it! I…I honestly never thought of them in that way…I mean…"

Goofy laughed as Sora blushed harder and seemed about ready to bury her head in her hands. "Don't worry! I'm only teasing ya'."

"I'll never be able to look them right in the face again!" Sora shook her head amused, knowing he was telling the truth about only playfully teasing her (she got enough teasing from Riku and Kairi themselves to know when they were joking around with her-Goofy acted in much the same manner-eyes twinkling as a grin split across his face).

A twang of pain caused her smile to die a bit.

She missed them.

No!

She was being stupid.

They had only been separated for around three or four days. She'd be seeing them soon. She shouldn't be acting like a moping kid (because she definitely wasn't a kid!).

So, grinning at Goofy, she was about to say something when Donald jumped on her shoulder.

Literally.

A miniature Donald jumped on her shoulder, stomping his foot angrily as he repeatedly whacked Sora's cheek.

"I've been trying to get your attention forever!" Donald shouted, even as Sora's and Goofy's mouths dropped open.

"DONALD?!" both of them shouted at the same time as Sora grabbed Donald and placed him on the table.

He seemed exactly the same, except for his miniature appearance.

"What happened?" Sora asked, trying to keep a straight face as she stared at Donald.

He'd probably kill her if she laughed.

"That stupid rabbit was in so much of a hurry, he knocked the bottle away from the table and straight towards me, making it spill all over me and shrink me just like it did him!" Donald shouted angrily. "We're going to follow that rabbit and show him a piece of my mind! Hurry up and drink the drink! There's enough left for you both and some to spare! We need to go through that small doorknob!"

Sora looked at the small door on the opposite side of the three doors together. The small door was the size of her fist and would be easy to fit through. But…

"Are you sure this drink will make us small…?" Sora mumbled, disbelieve etched into her voice.

Sure, she'd done a whole bunch of weird things before and magic did exist. And sure, she'd played on her gaming console games where you could shrink stuff but…

It just didn't seem…

"There!" Donald smirked as Sora looked at herself, now much smaller but feeling like she was in a completely different room altogether because everything was so big.

Donald had thrown the bottle at her and Goofy, impatient because of Sora's indecisiveness.

"Come on!" Donald shouted, dragging them towards the golden doorknob. "We don't have all day!"

Sora sweat dropped but she continued looking around her, mouth hanging open as she finally realised what mice and ants might've felt like upon seeing everything so huge around them.

Oh…I hope I don't run across any ants when I'm this small…It'll be much bigger, that's for sure!

"Ya' know, I thought we was meant to be looking for the king?" Goofy asked but Donald waved his hand.

"Yeah, of course I know that! But first I'm going to show that rabbit a piece of my mind!" Donald shouted. "Besides, the king is bound to be waiting for us somewhere nearby so he won't miss us!"

Sora sweat dropped but Goofy shrugged, going along with it (maybe he always did that?).

The trio walked up to the golden doorknob (the knob was its nose and the key insertion area was its mouth). It seemed to be sleeping (or ignoring them-they had been talking loudly as they made their way to the doorknob. Nobody could sleep through their racket…right?).

"Heeeyyyyyyyyy!" Sora shouted after a few seconds of silence. "We want to get through!"

"Why're you bothering me?" the doorknob yawned, for all intent and purpose, looking like he wanted nothing more than to go back to sleep. "Leave me alone…"

"Just open the door to let us pass!" Donald shouted, rattling the door knob and causing the doorknob to flinch.

"Oh! That hurts!" he scowled, seemingly wide awake now as he glared at Donald's offending feathers that dared to twist his nose. "Very well then. Hurry up and go through-and let me get some sleep! I'm a very busy doorknob and how am I to get sleep if you keep bothering me?"

Very busy…

Sora sweat dropped but followed Donald and Goofy inside the door, only to pause as they entered some sort of courtroom.

There was a hedge on either side of Sora, bordering the whole room with part of the hedge forming an archway above Sora. They walked further in the room, catching sight of numerous red spade and black diamond (or visa versa) cards holding axes and other weapons as they stood in a line.

Sora was mostly familiar with the structure of court rooms, simply because Kairi's father, being the mayor, was the one who was the judge and organised the whole things back on Destiny Islands.

Crimes on Destiny Island were very few-maybe one serious crime once every few years. But the real reason Sora was familiar with the court room was because after her parents had died, she had been asked to attend so the mayor could organise where Sora was to go (whether friends of Sora's parents would adopt her or whether she would go to an orphanage).

Even though Kairi's father tried to make it as comfortable as he could for Sora, Sora still didn't like courtrooms ever since.

Which was why she could easily tell that the blonde male around her age sitting in the defendant box felt the same way she did back then. His posture screamed awkwardness, wariness and a desperate want to simply get out of the courtroom.

"…and for the attempted theft of my heart, I find you, Ace, guilty!" the huge woman sitting in the judge box shouted angrily. "Why? Because I say so!"

Sora's mouth dropped open in shock and she took a closer look at the woman, scowling a bit. She had a crown resting atop her black hair, some weird type of clothing that made her look like a really weird mushroom and a cane with a heart symbol at the top.

A queen…? But that gives her no right to find people guilty just because she says so! She's just a bully!

"This is so unfair!" the blonde haired boy, Ace shouted, his blue eyes blazing with anger. "I haven't done anything wrong!"

"Silence!" the Queen roared. "You tried to steal my heart-"

Sora finally clicked, berating herself for earlier not picking up on the information about the attempted theft of the Queen's heart. She should have realised then what was really going on.

Before Donald or Goofy could stop her (she'd lucked out-Donald was staring angrily at the rabbit while Goofy was frowning in worry as he listened to the queen), Sora was running up to stand beside Ace who was dressed in weird clothes that looked similar to what the mayor wore during important meetings.

The only starling difference was that the boy's clothes were blue where Kairi's father wore black. Ace's clothes consisted of a white shirt and over that, a light blue jacket and matching light blue pants. The jacket had some sort of series of frills or strings or something that seemed to be linked to this world's type of society fashion (like Sora's world and their bright clothes).

"He's not the one you're looking for!" Sora shouted quickly, even as the Queen's face started to turn red with anger. "We know who the real culprits are!"

"Don't lump me with you, Sora!" Donald shouted, even as he came running towards Sora, his face absolutely livid.

Whoops…Guess I broke rule number 2…Follow the non-world interference rule…But I can't just sit around! Not when I know who the real culprits are! Besides, Leon already said the world orders have already been thrown in chaos because of the heartless! If I can help fix that and save some people in between, I will!

"Do you have any proof?" the Queen narrowed her eyes and Sora's eyes widened in shock.

I needed to bring proof?

The card guards seemed to take a step towards Sora, as if waiting for their queen to give the order to attack. Swallowing a little, Sora wondered if she should just summon her keyblade to protect Ace (and quite possibly herself too).

But something else happened entirely.

"Hey!" Ace shouted suddenly from beside Sora and Sora quickly turned to look.

One of the cards grabbed Ace out from the defendant area and he was thrown into an oversized bird cage right next to the seat the queen was sitting in (which was at the top of a hedge to make her appear more menacing no doubt).

"Find your proof." The Queen sneered at the thought. "We will recommence the trail based off what proof you had."

Sora glared, clenching her fists as her eyes flickered to Ace, who seemed to be somewhat hopeful Sora would get him out.

"I. Can't. Believe. You!" Donald hissed to Sora a few seconds later and Sora frowned, ignoring him as she made her way to Ace (he had been making hand motions to get closer to speak).

"Don't try any cheap tricks." The ace of black diamond card warned as his axe moved dangerously towards Sora, who scowled in return.

"I won't!" Sora glared, side stepping the card and standing in front of Ace's cage.

"So do you really know who the culprit is?" Ace asked, his face grim.

Even as Donald was about to open his mouth to probably answer 'no', Sora beat him. "We do. Problem is, we have no idea where the evidence might be…"

Ace frowned, seemingly thinking before turning back to Sora, his blue gaze never wavering. "Find the Cheshire Cat. He'll be able to help. Go through that maze-you should find him somewhere in there."

Ace pointed towards the left edged hedge where another archway was, leading somewhere towards where the 'Cheshire Cat' probably was.

"Don't worry!" Sora nodded, grabbing Ace's hands. "I promise we'll get your name cleared!"

Ace gave a small smile and a nod, stepping back to stay near the edge of the cage. "Thank you. I'll be waiting."

"Gee, I don't think there's much else ya' can do." Goofy admitted and Ace shot a bigger smile at them.

True…stuck in a cage means he can't really go out for a walk or anything…

"Good luck."

Sora, Goofy and (a rather reluctant) Donald headed for the path Ace pointed out to them. As soon as they entered under the archway, they came across a doorway which they opened to reveal a weird, forest-like room. There were huge mushrooms, very tall grass that was like 20 Sora heights high and rocks bigger than Sora (though Sora had seen a similar type of rock back on the play island).

"I can't believe you, Sora…" Donald muttered and Sora frowned at Donald.

"Didn't you want to help him?!" Sora frowned. "The heartless are already causing havoc here! We know Ace is innocent! We can't just let this world structure blame something not of their world on somebody! That's not right! And what's the big deal anyway?! It's not like we said we were off-world or that it was the heartless!"

"I…I know it's not right." Donald admitted as the three of them sat on the nearby rocks. "However, every world is defined by its particular boundaries, within which some understanding of reality emerges as truth."

Sora nodded, understanding that much at least without the help of her trusty dictionary, Kairi.

"Two truths (the world's and how there are other worlds with heartless causing problems) cannot coexist. So this means from the introduction of foreign bodies there is conflict and chaos spawned. That's why we limit our involvement in local affairs." Donald frowned.

"But gee, the heartless ain't really a local affair, is it?" Goofy asked, a hand to his lips.

"Yeah!" Sora nodded vigorously, sensing a win for her (she just wanted to show Donald why she was doing what she was doing-and she didn't want him to be angry anymore). "And if your King's setting out to fix everything that's happening, surely he wouldn't mind if we helped by fixing the smaller problems!"

Donald still looked unsure but waved his hand. "Ah, Phooey... Alright, I guess we can help out…"

Sora grinned and hopped off the rock, just as another voice spoke-right next to her ear.

"So, you have come to a decision." A stripped purple cat appeared out of thin air, his head first and then the rest of him. "The Cheshire Cat knows all truths, and finds as yet no contradictions or chaos."

Sora sweat dropped as the cat grabbed his head and tucked it in under his elbow.

Other worlds really are pretty strange…I guess it's true that a lot of mysterious things can happen off world! Wait…

"The Cheshire Cat?!" Sora gasped, even as the cat dropped a box (with a "Here you go").

…Of course the box just had to fall on Donald's head, setting him in an even worse mood than earlier. Even as Donald started cursing while rubbing his head, Sora and Goofy looked at each other and then the relatively small pink box.

"Within the box there lives perhaps the truth you seek…or perhaps there lives not? To trust or not to trust? I trust you'll decide…"

And with that, the Cheshire Cat vanished.

"Doesn't look very trustworthy to me…" Donald muttered angrily as he joined them in looking at the box. "Hurry up and open it!"

And then a soldier heartless popped out…

Sora slammed the box around it, concealing it within the innocent looking box again.

"A heartless?!" Donald quacked before grinning. "I suppose we could use this."

"Gee, do you think there's other pieces of evidence around?" Goofy asked and Sora grinned, her adventurous streak coming back.

"There's only one way to find out!" Sora ran a few metres through the area. "Besides, we've still got to search for Riku, Kairi and your king!"

"Yeah!" Donald smiled. "Your majesty! Where are you?"

"Rikuuuuuuuuuu? Kairriiiiiiiiiiiiii?" Sora shouted.

The only thing they successfully brought towards them was heartless (though they were quickly disposed of).

After a LOT of whacky, weird, meant-to-be-impossible things:

They had collected five pieces of evidence.

An gruelling hour of searching for the evidence of the heartless and the king, Riku or Kairi.

They only found the evidence.

"I…I thought he'd be here!" Donald said angrily, stomping his foot on the ground. "We've just been wasting our time!"

Sora suddenly had a realisation come to her. "…What if he wanted us to come to this world for a reason? What if he wanted us to stop the heartless from attacking the Queen and causing Ace to be found guilty?"

"Don't be ridiculous!" Donald huffed, though he continued to look thoughtful all throughout the walk back to the courtroom.

The area was mostly the same as when Sora, Donald and Goofy had left, except there was less card guards and the rabbit was getting yelled at by the Queen for being late. Ace was sitting down in his cage, looking fairly annoyed and tired but his eyes widened when he saw Sora coming back into the room.

"We've found five pieces of evidence!" Sora announced proudly as she and Goofy (Donald refused to touch any of the boxes because of what happened the first time) put them down in front of the Queen.

"Hmph!" the Queen sneered. "Is that all? Well, I'm still collecting mine! You will wait until I'm done collecting!"

"Wha-"

Sora was about to ask 'what do you mean? I thought you already thought Ace was guilty?! Why would you need more evidence unless…you thought you were wrong!' but…

Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on who looks at it), Donald covered her tactless mouth before she could say anything and get them all in boiling water with the Queen.

Me: So if people have read the manga, you'll start to see some elements of it in here (basically the explanations I'm giving about the world orders and bla, bla, bla)

Sora: I can see why you use the manga... You can't even be bothered explaining your reasoning behind it.

Me: ...shut up Sora. Anyhow, I'm off to church and the next chapter will be posted in few hours!
