I do not own Bleach or Alice in the country of Hearts!
A/N : Since Down The Rabbit Hole done so well I wanted to bring this twist of a tale to Bleach. If you have not read that story it's a spin on Alice in wonderland with inspiration and reference to Alice in the country of hearts.
Please Enjoy!
Entire story will be from Momo's POV
"Momo..." A soft spoken voice said.
"Nuuugh" was all escaped the young girl's lips.
"Momo... come on wake up silly." The voice spoke again but louder.
The young girl stirred then slowly opened her eyes. She blinked once then twice. When her vision became clearer and adjusted to the light she saw her older brother staring at her.
"Oh forgive me Izuru, I didn't mean to fall asleep." I apologetically spoke bowing my head.
Izuru just laughed. "Momo it's alright I herd you mumbling though, were you dreaming?"
'Dreaming? Huh... yes that was a strange dream'
"It was a very strange dream" I started. "Something about a game and there were rules..."
"A game? That certainly sounds like a fun dream you had." Izuru spoke with a gentle voice then paused mid thought.
I gave my brother a funny face at his reply and then he finished his thought.
"Your so silly Momo." He finished. I continued to look at him and thought ' He's very much different then me the one who so easily falls asleep in the garden. He's formal and intelligent those words don't describe me. It's no wonder that man rejected me I'm not an ideal lady.' At that last statement my heart felt like it stung.
I shook myself out of my thoughts and noticed my brother was holding a book. "Ah Izuru... that book your reading what is it about?"
"This? It's a fairy tale. It's about a girl and she follows a white rabbit to wonderland." Izuru starts.
"What happens at the end? That's all I want to know." I ask impatiently.
My brother laughs at me then continues "Always the same huh? You just want to know the end. Well the Queen tried to put her on trial, but she escapes until she wakes up."
"So it was all just a dream? She just wakes up?" I ask confused.
"Yes that's it." My brother answers me.
"I don't think I like that book very much." I say pouting a little.
"That's a pity... say Momo why don't we play a game?" Izuru asks seeing as I'm pouting.
I look at my brother not sure of what to answer. He then continues after seeing my face. "Well you dreamt of a game you must want to play? How about a card game?" He asks me while starting to get up.
'Cards?' Something in my sub conscience tells me I have to play cards. Because that's the rule.' I look lost in thought almost as if something else was talking to me.
"Momo? Hmm you must be still tired, well just stay put I will go get the cards." Izuru asks worried at first then proceeds to walk towards the house.
'Did I just say something? Huh... I'm so tired... it's such a nice day though... I'm sorry brother...' And with those final thoughts I'm fast asleep.
*Rustle Rustle*
'What is that?' I slowly open my eyes... 'A rabbit? But he has clothes on. It's coming closer... I must be dreaming...'
"Hey you! Yes you! Your supposed to follow me." The rabbit spoke. I wanted to close my eyes again, but the rabbit got closer.
"Did you not hear me the first time? Get up! You have to chase me!" The rabbit spoke again more urgently.
' I don't understand now it's talking? This is such a weird dream... I really must be tired.' I thought closing my eyes once more.
"Well I suppose it can't be helped." The rabbit sighs then picks up the young girl and starts to run with her.
"Hey! Put me down!" I yell at the rabbit.
"Please don't scream in my ear." The rabbit calmly spoke.
"Who are you? And put me down!" I continue to yell at him.
"No can do my dear I'll put you down when we get there." He starts calmly. "You see we're going down that hole." He finishes.
"Hole? What hole? Since when was there a hole this size in my garden!" I ask confused.
"Hmm I wonder why... but if there is a hole you must jump in of course!" And with that the rabbit jumps into the hole with poor Momo along for the ride.
"Aren't we going to die if we keep falling?!" I asked while still panicking.
"Isn't it fun to fall?" The rabbit asks gleefully with a smile gracing his face. He continues to speak. "When I'm falling with you it's even more fun, but alas we can't fall forever."
'What? I'm alive?' I thought as I felt solid ground below me. "What is this? Where are we." I questioned.
"This? It's wonderland of course!" The rabbit happily exclaimed. He extends his hand as if bowing to a queen.
"Wonderland? I've herd that name before." I mumble out.
"Welcome to wonderland Momo." The rabbit excitedly says to me.
"I've never herd such a place and you... how do you know my name?" I ask him.
"Of course I know your name silly. I love you." The rabbit cheerfully and proudly says.
'Is he a stalker? He's got bunny ears... he's definitely a pervert.' I think to myself while not daring to take my eyes off of him. "Take me home right now!" I demand.
"You see that's impossible, but will you please drink this?" The rabbit asks in a very gentlemanly voice while holding a vial.
"Why would I drink something suspicious? I'm not drinking that!" I shout at him.
He lets out a sigh, "My my my you are troublesome that just won't do." He speaks as he approaches the girl.
'What? I can't get up! Why can't I stand?' I think as I tired to get up to move away from him. As soon as he's face to face with me he speaks again.
"Aren't you curious at all to my name?" He starts then pauses. " I see... if your curious then you must like me!" He finishes.
"You must of lost your mind who... no one would like you!" I spat out to him.
He ponders what I have to say for a moment."Ah I see, that's right why would it be easy? The game would be boring if it were that easy." As he finishes speaking he pops the top off the vial he was holding.
'A game?' I think and then I feel a sudden throbbing in my head.
Did you know? Games always have rules. It's decided from the beginning.
I suddenly snapped out of my thoughts as the rabbit slowly lifts my chin. He firmly plants his lips on me and at that moment I feel something going down my throat. 'He's forcing me?' I think in an instant. I push with all my might at his shoulder and mouth to separate us.
He then placed his forehead against mine. "I apologize but you've left me no other choice. If you drink it all though I'll let you go." He apologized sincerely.
*cough,cough* I managed to swallow the rest of it just as I was about to yell at him he interrupts me.
"This is the potion of hearts. Once you drink it you must participate in the game." He explains. He then turns on his heel and starts to walk away. "Oh before I forget my name is Toshiro White you may call me Shiro-Chan if you'd like. Now the game begins...let's meet again Momo." And with that last sentence the rabbit is gone and I am left alone.
"That pervert! I will never think of that as a real kiss!" I spat out after he disappeared. 'What in the world did he make me drink? I refuse to feel better until I've hit him!' I think. With the empty vile in my hands I take off running in a direction.
'Oh no I ran this way without thinking, I don't even know if it's the right way. There's a large mansion over there, I'll ask there a pervert with bunny ears has to be famous.'
And with that final though I continue to dash off towards the building unaware of what was to come once I got there.
