Here we go. The Girls of the Golden Afternoon. They have a short appearance- sorry. I really would like it if you reviewed because I need feedback or else I might be writing to no one here. You don't have to review anything special. I'll be content with a simple "keep going" Then I'd know I have an actually audience.

I don't own Kingdom Hearts.

And for the record- I don't own Alice in Wonderland, Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Saw, or Alice and Her Adventures in Wonderland.

Part 6

Among the Grass

Kairi ran through the blades of grass in a panic. What if she never grew back to real size, never found Sora, or never even left Wonderland. She was running, pushing the soft blades of grass out of her way. She had to stop because she became blind from frustrated and helpless tears. She sat on a pebble and cried into her hands.

She looked up when she heard a rustle of something among the grass. She stood up and wiped her tears away. She walked forward with more confidence than she felt. When she searched behind a few blades, she saw colors.

She saw flowers a few feet taller than her, but not towering. She stepped into their circle. Some were even as tall as her. She admired their colors- one deep purple, bright orange, calming white, humble pink, and gentle yellow. She kept spinning taking their colors. She finally sat down and looked at them all.

She heard a giggle. She turned around and nothing looked disturbed. She turned back to the flowers and the giggling got even more common. She got up, a little frightened. She stepped from the flowers as faces bloomed from the middle of the petals. First the orange, then the purple, pink, yellow and last the white.

They all had familiar faces. The orange one had been giggling.

"You gave us away," the yellow said. It wasn't meanly either, just playful.

"I couldn't help it!" It said. "Everything was too still."

"You talk," Kairi gasped.

"I think you startled her," The pink one said. It seemed to grow smaller, to her height. It motioned Kairi to her. When Kairi got closer, she recognized the face. It was the friendly and gentle Aerith from Radiant Gardens. Kairi smiled. Finally someone greeted her gently and kindly.

"She's small," the orange one said. Kairi looked closer and saw she looked like Yuffie; the rough but fun ninja friends with Aerith back at Radiant Gardens. Kairi crossed her arms.

"You're tall," Kairi shot back. The purple one looked concerned.

"Please don't fight!" It pleaded. "We only just met her, Daisy." Kairi didn't recognize the purple one, but felt a deep connection when she saw the face. The name Xion came to mind. She blinked at the name. Pushing it aside, she examined the flower.

"Are you a violet?" Kairi asked, with bliss sailing in her voice. The purple one nodded proudly.

"I see you know your flowers," she complimented.

"What am I?" The yellow asked, friendly. Her face rung a bell quickly. It was Olette from Twilight Town. Her petals were raised proudly for show to Kairi. Kairi placed her hands under her chin thoughtfully.

"You're a sunflower," she said.

"Correct," she smiled delightedly.

"Wait, wait!" The Yuffie flower motioned. "I bet you can't guess what I am!" She waved her petals. Kairi approached her and circled her.

"You're a daisy,"

"Oh! Sunflower over there gave it away earlier," She huffed. Kairi scanned if she missed anybody. She spotted the white flower. She looked droopy, but swept up in the fun anyway. Kairi gasped happily when the face on the flower was a face she recognized. It was Namine.

"You're a lily," Kairi said quietly as she approached the white flower. It nodded with a smile.

"Yes," she said in a gentle voice. "You know your flowers quite well." It grew to her level. Kairi searched her eyes. They emptied out the feeling Kairi got when she stared at herself in the mirror.

"What are you?" The daisy asked, breaking their connection.

"I'm not a flower," Kairi said, her eyes wide. They all gasped; even Namine seemed a little surprised.

"If you're not a flower," The Xion flower started. "Then what are you?" They all looked her down. She, all of the sudden, felt self conscious. She flattened her dress and closed in on herself. She felt so self conscious she felt her face get hot and suddenly felt like she was in one of those dreams where she would find herself in her under clothes, unable to find any clothes through out the whole dream.

She gulped and croaked, "I'm a girl."

"Then why are you so tiny?" The Olette flower asked, then covered her face in her petals shamefully.

"Well, I wasn't tiny until-" Kairi started.

"You're the size of a bug," The Yuffie flower exclaimed and looked to everyone.

"That's rude," Aerith said with a gentle scold. Kairi was getting angry. She ruffled the dress in reach. Her ears burned. Kairi's face scrunched up and she stormed past them. She heard the pleading of some of the other flowers calling, but she walked off with her arms crossed.

"I didn't know flowers could be so rude," She murmured to herself. If that's who she had to live with snooty flowers for the rest of her life, she thought she was going to explode. Then a wave of guilt caught in her throat. It was only really the flower that looked like Yuffie that had insulted her. The rest were nice; maybe it wouldn't be so bad.

She froze when she saw smoke curling in the air, rising above the grass. She watched it as she walked in the direction of the smoke. She pulled back blades of grass and watched the show of colorful smoke curl in the air. When they became harder to see because they started coming in a vertical angle she felt excitement.

There were more people besides the flowers. She heard humming. She started running. Where was the smoke coming from? She imagined a tiny colorful house, with a chimney blowing out this smoke. She hoped if that were true, inside the house would be some welcoming creature.

Rummble… She grabbed her stomach. Maybe they would also have some food. Those occasional cookies scattered across Wonderland weren't cutting it.

She gasped when she found the source. It wasn't a warm colorful house. It was a smoking caterpillar, perched on top of a soft-looking mushroom, looking all sorts of comfortable. He looked down at her judgingly. She flattened her dress consciously and looked straight at the caterpillar as it said-

"Who are you?"

If you got confused-

Daisy- Yuffie Sunflower- Olette Violet- Xion Lily: Namine Rose (Not mentioned): Aerith
