"Alright, Alice, get to your feet," the white rabbit states once we stop falling. "We don't have time to dilly dally."

"Sorry," I mumble quickly getting to my feet. "I sort of landed on my face."

"You humans are nothing but clumsy," the white rabbit chastises.

"Sorry," I apologize again.

"Now you're repeating yourself," the white rabbit says as he begins walking towards the little door.

"Oh my goodness!" I exclaim. "I remember this door."

"Alice, we don't have time for you to meander down memory lane," the white rabbit states, as he turns the knob of the door. "Rats, it's locked."

"Isn't the key on the table?"

"I know where the bloody key is," the white rabbit spits as he walks towards the small glass table in the middle of the room.

Is it just me, or is the rabbit a little cross today? He seems to be angry with me for no apparent reason. That or he just woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Either way he's frustrated for no good reason.

I don't know. His exasperation is making it a lot more complicated to unlock the door than it really is. It looks like he's having quite a bit of unnecessary trouble trying to open the door. If he would just stop being so vexed with me then maybe it wouldn't be as hard as he's making it out to be.

"Would you like some help?" I ask as he fails, yet again, to unlock the door.

"I don't need help from a human," the white rabbit mutters as he forces the key into the hole.

"Sorry, it just looks like your having a little trouble."

"Fine! If you want to do it so badly go right ahead," the white rabbit says jerking away from the door and moving to the side so he can observe.

"Okay," I mumble taking the key out of the doorknob.

I slide the key back into the knob and turn it sideways. To my surprise the lock instantly clicks open.

"I could have done that," the white rabbit grumbles as I gently push the door open.

"Wow," I whisper staring though the door. "It's been a long time."

"Alice, we are in a hurry," the white rabbit states. He roughly pushes me out of his way so that he can access the doorway.

"Just let me put the key back," I say as the white rabbit gets on all four paws so he can easily crawl through the door.

"We don't have time."

"Why won't it come back out?" I ask as I try to tug the key out of the door.

"That's irrelevant to this situation," the white rabbit says as he grabs my other arm. "We have to go now."

"Wait-"

"Rats, you're too big," the white rabbit says as he tries to pull me through the door with him.

"I'm sorry."

"Don't waste time apologizing," he says taking a glass bottle out of his coat.

"Sorry."

"Drink this." Then he hands me the little bottle.

"Alright."

As soon as the first drop hits my tongue, I rapidly drop down to the size of a doll. And once I'm tiny, the white rabbit grabs my hand and pulls me though the door after him.

A/N

Well, I'm sorry that I made the white rabbit such a jerk.

. . .

B/N "Sorry, I sort of landed on my face."

That line right there is great. I don't know why, maybe because it doesn't really apply to me, but it's just awesome.
