I'm fightin' for this girl
On the battlefield of love
Don't it look like baby cupid
Sent her arrows from above?
Don't you ever leave the side of me
Indefinitely, not probably
And honestly, I'm down like the economy

Baby, don't worry
You are my only
You won't be lonely
Even if the sky is falling down
You'll be my only
No need to worry

Baby, are you down, down, down, down, down?
(And the sky is falling down)
Down, down
Baby, are you down, down, down, down, down?
(Are you down? Are you down?)
Down, down
Even if the sky is falling down?
(And the sky is falling down)
And the sky is falling down

Chapter 5: Falling Down

Alice Liddell woke up to Celine shaking her lightly.

"Alice, wake up girl, you have a long day ahead of you" Celine ordered while Alice groaned and slowly got up when Lorina came in the room carrying a package.

Lorina gave Celine a thanking look when she saw Alice awake, Celine nodded then sat on an empty chair while Lorina sat on Alice's bed. Lorina emptied the contents of the package one by one, A dress, a pair of shoes, a few pieces of jewelry and a some photos.

The dress is sky blue laced with black, fancy, has one pocket and looked like it was for important occasions. The pair of shoes is simple, high-heeled and the color of dark blue. There are also two charm bracelets and a necklace with a rose petal. One of the photos had a picture of Alice's mom in a wedding dress with her dad on their wedding day.

"Lorina, what's going on?" Alice asks but Lorina just shook her head. "Alice get dressed first then I'll explain" Lorina told went to her bathroom carrying the dress. After cleaning herself up and putting on her dress, she went out put on the shoes and jewelries then sat next to Lorina.

"What's going on Lorina?" Alice asks, Lorina took a deep breath and began explaining to Alice.

"You're engaged. Father wants you to marry a nice young man named Marcus Marionette, son of Lucas Marionette, he is a rich young man that can help all of us" Lorina explained prepared for Alice to scream, shout or break something but Alice just calmly stated "So...Dad wants me to marry some guy".

Lorina detected the bluntness in her tone and voice. "Alice are you alright?" Lorina asks while Alice just shrugged "I guess, I just have a feeling something will happen today" Alice told Lorina and Celine.

"Well, you two get going, you two have a long day ahead of you" Celine told them, pushing them lightly out the door.

Lorina and Alice went outside to the garden. Alice saw a celebration or a party being held then after seeing Wendy, Alex and Jack; Alice ran towards them but ending up bumping into a young man, she lost her footing but the man grabbed her waist, preventing her from falling down. .

"Sorry!" Alice apologized, looking at the man she saw that he was the man Ace fought a few days back. "No problem, just be careful" he said winking at Alice before walking away from her then going to Ace, 'Looks like a serious conversation' Alice thought before Wendy walked up to her.

"Hey girl!" Wendy greeted smiling brightly at Alice who returned the smile.

Before the both of them could say anything, Alex and Jack came up to the both of them and began talking and asking questions.

"What's up princess?" Jack asks, smirking seeing her glare at him and Alex, "Not so well" Alex noted.

Before anyone else can say or do something, a melodious music began playing then almost everyone began dancing to the tune.

Alex shyly asked Wendy to dance while Jack accepted a dance from a young lady who asked him.

"May I have this dance?" Someone asks, tapping Alice lightly on the shoulder. When Alice turned around she saw a young man with silver hair, dark ebony eyes, pale skin and an eye patch on his right eye. "Sure" Alice replied uncertainly as he grabbed her and the both of them began dancing to the beat.

"Your name?" Alice asks, the man just smiled "I am Nightmare Gottschalk" he introduced. "Well, nice to meet you Mr. Gottschalk" Alice said feeling that she heard his voice somewhere before but couldn't figure out where.

They danced and danced until Alice noticed that they're near the gazebo, which there are only a few people counting Alice's father and a man he's talking to with another young man. Alice then saw Nightmare wave goodbye and leave but for some reason, Alice couldn't leave then decided to listen to the conversation.

Alice heard bits of the conversations. "She's not ready!" Alice's father exclaimed, the man who Alice presumed to be Lucas answered back calmly "What's done is done Anthony". Before they could talk (or argue) about it more, Alice stepped out and smiled shyly at the three of them.

"Alice! Did you just got here?" Anthony asks, Alice nodded "Yes dad" she answered. "This is great! Alice could meet Marcus now" Lucas exclaimed. Alice then noticed Marcus who was just looking at the ground in interest.

"Let's leave them for awhile" Lucas said leading Anthony away from the two teens.

There was an awkward silence between them until Marcus broke it. "You're surprised?" Marcus asks still not looking at Alice. "I was kind of expecting something to happen, maybe this is it" Alice explained trying to lighten the mood.

"You do know that this engagement is just for show and that if you agree, your freedom is limited" Marcus said finally looking at her. Alice's face turned blank and carefully replied "I know but I need to clear my head, excuse me". Marcus just nodded in understanding while Alice left to clear her head.

Alice was just wandering around the garden, trying not to talk or make contact with anyone.

After a few minutes of walking she saw a young man sitting under a tree, he looks ordinary except for his two white rabbit ears on his head.

Alice slowly walked towards him and sat next to him, "Hello Alice" the young man greeted her happily. "How do you know me?" Alice asks, the young man just smiled at her. "I'm Peter White, are you alright?" he asks her. Without thinking clearly or knowing why Alice told Peter about her engagement while Peter listened intently.

"You want to be free, I can give it to you" Peter told her giving her a vial, "Where will I go?" Alice asks him growing a little bit suspicious. "Do you want to be free or not?" Peter asks her, "If I go with you, can I go back home?" Alice asks, pocketing the vial "Of course" Peter informed her.

Peter and Alice stood up, Peter led Alice to a part of the garden where she saw a huge hole, probably fitting about 3-5 persons at a time.

Without warning, Peter pushed Alice in the hole and jumping in also.

Alice screamed while Peter just whistled until they both saw a bright light, the next thing Alice knows is that she was lying down on a hard, stone roof. "Where am I?" Alice asks massaging her sore head, "You are free" Peter stated calmly before jumping over the roof and going to who-knows-where.

Alice took the vial from her pocket, there was know a note attached to it that said: 'Drink me'. 'What the heck, I may be just dreaming or something' Alice thought before drinking the contents of the vial. When she finished drinking it, she pocketed the now empty and vial.

Seeing a door that leads to a staircase, Alice descended hoping to find some answers.

While Alice was exploring what seems to be a tower, she bumped into a person causing both of them crashing to the floor. "Sorry!" Alice apologized helping the man up. The man just glared at her, his eyes turning surprised before it became cold.

The man grabbed Alice's wrist and dragged her to a sofa, sitting down also the man began questioning Alice but introduced himself first.

"I'm Julius Monrey, are you a foreigner?" Julius asks, keeping his face calm and eyes blank. "If you mean I'm not from here, then yes" Alice answered. Julius still kept his poker face, Alice shifted uncomfortably before noticing something.

"Is it night already? I came here at noon" Alice said confusion evident on her face. "I'll explain it tomorrow, just go to the third door on the right and get some sleep" Julius ordered.

Alice nodded and began to walk towards the room. When she looked around at her room she saw that it was simple and comfy.

She went to the bed and lay her head on th pillow, she started sleeping when she heard a voice greeting her.

"Hello Alice, Welcome to Wonderland"
