Raven's opened her eyes slowly, trying to comprehend what was going on. The last few minutes vanished away from her mind and were replaced with confusion instead, as if nothing had happened and she was still the same Raven from Ever After High. "Ugh...Where am i?" She thought, with her eyes half what she could see; she was in a place that resembled more of a forest than a house, the leaves on the trees swayed in the wind and some flowers sang a happy song. Wait, that was far from normal
Should we wake her?
She's unconscious you can't wake her up!
Oh, really?
...I think
It's worth a try
She quickly lifted herself up but soon felt a strong force pushing her down- it was either some kind of magic or just tiredness. After all, the last thing she remembered was being chased... Or was she chasing it? When she finally awoke, she saw six people surrounding her; Apple, Dexter, Maddie, Kitty, Briar and Cerise. Not all of them were awake though, Briar was resting against a tree, Kitty was asleep on a tree branch and Dexter sleeping near a rose bush.
Maddie smiled when she saw Raven was awake "Raven! We're here! Welcome to Wonderland!" She exclaimed with a burst of happiness. It was no surprise; Maddie cherished Wonderland and every single part of it's wonder and was so happy, she held out a hand to help Raven up, and when she did, she pulled her in for a hug
"Thank you for all your help, Raven! You're the bestest-friend-helper ever after!" Maddie said with her mad grin
"Uh, help...?" Raven asked, unsure of what she did. Did she cast some sort of spell earlier?
Maddie nodded "Yes-siree! You fixed-up Wonderland!" She paused "But i'm sorry your plan didn't work"
Raven tried putting the pieces together. Plan? Plan...? Plan! She recalled.
Apple looked around, confused "Um, plan...?" She asked hoping that someone would answer her
Raven pretended not to notice Apple at all and dusted her dress off "Okay, so... We're in Wonderland...?"
Maddie once again nodded "Yep! This is Wonderland, alrighty! Where once the tree of which we are grown, away we go whilst it's roots leads us back home!"
"But... I thought Wonderland was poisoned..." Cerise chimed in quietly, away from the group "This could be Wonderland Grove.."
"I guess Cerise has a point; Should we wake up the others before heading back?" Ashlynn asked as she put a lock of hair behind her ear. She looked at her glass slippers that seemed to be covered in mud at the bottom "Ah! If we wake them up now we can quickly head to the Glass Slipper so i can quickly take care of them!" She squealed, looking as if her shoes were a mess, although they weren't as bad as Raven's, or Cerise for that matter. Her boots were covered in it.
Raven raised an eyebrow "Uh, is she talking about her shoes?"
Cerise shrugged in response, pulling down on her hood. Raven could understand, Cerise wasn't really a big fan of being near a big group of friends or a group at all. Kitty yawned, stretching her arms as she opened her eyes.
"What's going on?" She asked, with a look that told Raven she knew what was going on but wanted for her to spill the beans.
"Kitty's joking, she was awake the same time as me! Not the same time as me exactly but she went to sleep because she said i was usa-hoosing my mouth a lot lot lot lot lot" Maddie giggled as she repeated her words in her head "That reminds me! We're in Wonderland!"
"Maddie? A-are you sure this is Wonderland...? That means the Queen Of Hearts might be around here somewhere..." Apple twirled around, as the flowers stopped singing.
Maddie simply nodded in response. "Wonderland... Ashlynn's right. We gotta get the rest of them to wake up before we actually meet the Queen Of Hearts! Or at least move them somewhere safer"
O-X-x-X-O
Raven and Maddie lifted Dexter by his arms, putting a supporting arm on Dexter's back to do so. His glasses were falling off a bit and he made light sounds as they tried carrying him toward a circle of rosebushes. It was strange how everything Raven did including Dexter was awkward. Maddie giggled hearing the Narrator speak, although she agreed to not converse with the Narrator if i gave her 10 wonderlandian sweets.
Maddie opened her mouth but soon closed it immediately as if something was stopping her from speaking.
"Is something wrong?" Raven asked, struggling a bit. "Must be that golden crown" She muttered, picking him up again with Maddie.
"Oh, i was about to say something but my good friend the Narrator told me not to mention- whoops! Sorry about that Narrator!" She said
Raven smiled in response to Maddie and began to lift the crown from Dexter's head, which she thought would make him easier to lift. Of course; the others didn't have problems. Apple was carrying Briar Beauty with Ashlynn whilst Cerise was scanning the wonderlandian forest they were in looking for some sort of safe place. but as soon as Raven began lifting his crown; Dexter was beginning to wake up.
"R-Raven?" He asked, looking at her.
Startled, she let go of Dexter and the crown, making him fall backwards. thankfully, before he could fall, Maddie quickly pushed him back to his feet. Raven caught his crown before it could fall as well. His face was a bright red.
"Sorry" she apologised, handing him his crown before moving some steps back to avoid his gaze.
"Uh, n-no problem. It was an accident..." He shrugged, putting it back on to his head "Where are we going...?"
"We're going back to Ever After high, I think we're in Wonderland" Apple replied "It's a shame Wonderland doesn't have any party music.." she said referring to Briar Beauty. It was the one thing that they knew could wake up Briar Beauty. If there was anything else, it was probably something they didn't know about.
Kitty vanished and reappeared behind Dexter "We may be, we might not be. Who knows?" She giggled as she turned invisible "If you want the true answer, just go back to where it started... Or to where it didn't... Or maybe you don't have to go at all"
Cerise's ears suddenly picked something up and she instantly looked up. Well, it was something they could all hear, but it was quiet faint. Somewhere, up in the distance, someone decked in red and black shouted "OFF WITH THE HEAD!"
